Churchill Said the Things That England Felt But Couldn't Express

1 pace for five years and then, a 76, became prime minister again
 From being the low boy ir school he went on to write more than 30 books, including histories of both world wars, win a Nobel Prize for literature, and become both the greatest orator of the cen tury and one of the great figures of history.
 But it was long struggle, dis heartening for long stretches, which seemed to reveal the scars of loneliness.
 He wasn't popular in school, in society, or in the army because he was too brash, often too brassy, too free with advice and criticism. It was the same in British pol itics Virginia Cowles, who has written an excellent biography of Churchill, said of his long career in Parliament: "No man has been more bitterly hated in his time"
 He chopped his opponents to hash. He defied his political lead CTS and popular opinion. He was always talking - opinions, advice, criticism-and never shut up.
 He irritated his own conserva- tive party so much there were times when he got up to talk that the Conservatives walked out. Yet, in the moments of his country's greatest crisis it was his voice-Harry Hopkins, Roosevelt's right hand man, called it a ''mushy" voice-the British people most wanted to hear.
 He said all the things-like in Tn defeat, defiance - they felt but couldn't express. He himself explained it later: "It was the ma. tion that had the lions heart. had the luck to be called to give 1 the roar"

Armed Services Committee Votes $4OO Million Slash For Military Hardware

WASHINGTON H9 = The Sen ate Armed Services Committee voted a surprising slash of more than $400 million yesterday in President Kennedy's request for $15.3 billions for new aircraft, missiles and other military hard ware.
 Chairman Richard Russell, O. Ga0, said the economy move - if approved later by the Senate - would mean a reduction of some S905 million in the authorization previously approved by the House.
 'This is a very modest reduc- ton in the numbers of aircraft, missiles, spare parts for them and research and development" Rus sell told newsmen after the closed door session.
 ''It is stretch-out in our cold war buying program" he added.

Wall St. and Madison Ave. Are Campaign Issues In
 Canada'S National Election

TORONTO L' - The Pentagon Wall Street and Madison Avenue are campaign issues in the final week before Canada's national el- ection.
 The controversy over United States nuclear warheads which helped topple Prime Minister John Diefenbaker's Conservative gov- erment and force the April 8 el- ections draws most of the fire from Difenbaker and Li eral leader Lester Pearson.
 New Democratic leader T. C. Douglas introduced Wall Street and Madison Avenue into the campaign.
 He charged in Moncton, N. B., that Canadian subsidiaries of US. corporations have made big dona- tions to the Liberal party cam paign The money, he said, fin anced Madison Avenue gimmicks like the truth squad and coloring books and the like" that are in- sulting to the Canadian people.
 Diefenbaker again defended his rejection of US. nuclear Warheads for the Bomarc missiles by telling a Montreal audience US. Defense Secretary McNamara doubts the Bomarc's value.
 Diefenbaker said McNamara told a US. congressional committee 13 Bomarc bases would draw enemy missiles of war came
 What happens to you when the Russians waste missiles on the Bomarcs?" Diefenbaker asked.
 Pearson, speaking in Winnipeg, had some questions for Diefen- baker.
 Does he believe we should scrap the Early Warning System because it is an important target? That we should have no defense arms at all because they will be targets? That we should make nc contribution at all to collective defense?"

By JAMES NARROW

Dy UlCldllIlS IL, IIdu d lOIlSly ulC while growing up. Perhaps it was that loneliness that shaped and strengthened him.
 I may be explained to some de- gree why, in a hunt for recogni- tion and identity, he asserted him. self so belligerently the rest of his life, even when it meant making mortal enemies in his own Eng land
 But he was also romantic and remained one. It was no wonder when he was nine and his father gave him Stevenson's Treasure Island' to read he "devoured it with delight"
 Ever since he has been kind of young Jim Hawkins fighting for the treasure against the Long John Silvers of the world.
 His parents, Lord Randolph Churchill and his mother, Jennie Jerome of New York, shipped him off to boarding school when he was seven. He stayed in schools, one after another, until he went into the cavalry at 21.
 He himself says his nurse, a fat and elderly lady named Mrs. Ev- crest, was his dearest and most intimate friend" during the years of his growing up. He stayed with her when she was dying. His father he worshipped but hardly knew.
 Churchill was 21 when his father died. In those q years Lord Ran dolph, a self-centered man and a failure in British politics, had per haps not as many as six extended conversations with his son, not as much as weekend of talking.
 And Churchill didn't get to know his mother well until after his fathers death. But a turning point came in his life one day when he was 12, playing with his 1,5OO lead soldiers on big table in his room.
 For 20 minutes his father watch ed with a smile and, still smiling, suggested he go into the army when he grew up. Churchill did. He thought at the time his father had visions of military splender for him.
 Later, from some one else, Churchill learned his fathers real reason for suggesting the army. Lord Randolph thought his son was too stupid to be lawyer and even wondered if he could make his way in England at all.
 He wasn't the only one who thought Churchill stupid. He was at the bottom of his class in school. He couldn't learn Latin, Greek or mathematics. He couldn't learn what interested him, he said, and he didn't.
 Even when he got out of mili- tary school he had to go into the cavalry because his marks weren't good enough for the infantry. For anyone like him a university was unthlnkaDle.
 Pet, somewhow he developed a love for the English language, which returned his affection. In addition, he had those two price less commodities of genius: pro- digious memory and unbelievable energy.
 When he was the lowest boy in the lowest class at Harrow he won a prize open to the whole school by reciting 1.2OO lines of Mac Auley's Lays of Ancient Rome without, as he says, making a single mistake"
 The energy persisted into his old age. While President Franklin D. Roosevelt died at 63, worn. out, Churchill didn't become Britain's prime minister and war leader un- <i1 ho x,,oc RE Io cot a h1inIiyo O

he said from artists who ask
whether they are eligible.
These people-artiSts. archi-

they're very welcome" Arnold
said. What the commission
seeks is the very best design
and most magical slogan for
Alaska's 1867 event that can be
created"
The contest which closes on
Nov. 80, offers $1,000 to the
person submitted the winning
emblem entry for the event
and $500 to the person submit

Location Of Plant, CIT
Problems UnresoIved

MEA will continue to pursue
a course toward eventual con-
structlon of a source of electric
power at the mine mouth, Ma
son LaZelle, MEA manager,
said today.
MEA members who feel that
such a plant is a necessity are
working toward the same goal,
and of course have more lati-
tude to explore other methods
than those available to MEA,
he added.
Reviewing events of recent
weeks, LaZelle reported on
conference held with Norman
Clapp, REA administrator,
members of his staff, and rep
resentatives of the CEA, HEA,
and MEA.
Clapp reiterated his state
ment, made to MEA personnel
in Washington several weeks
ago, that it appeared that
l6-megawatt gas turbine would
be needed for peaking during
the winter of 1865, and it there
fore would probably be COM
mitted quite soon. The location
would be in the Knik Arm
plant in Anchorage
The administrator also stated
that it appeared at this time
that the major unit to be built
in the future (33 megawatD
would be constructed at Knik
Arm, and would burn coal.
No commitment has been
made by REA to date on either
of the proposed units, to MEAS
knowledge, LaZelle said.
When MEA representatives
were told of this decision in
Washington, D. c. several
weeks ago, they informed both
Clapp and Sen. Gruening that
the local cooperative is firmly
convinced that if the plant is
constructed in Anchorage, ii
will not burn coal.
MEA officials feel that the
local coal producer is not in a
position to compete we'll with
other fossil fuels when the
market is in the Anchorage
area. They pointed out that,
with a mine mouth plant, the
The frontiersman., 1963-10-31

producer can control every step
of the mining process, from pit
to plant, also that market at
the mine mouth will allow the
producer to compete more eff
fectively in the Anchorage
market.
Clapp was informed that it
is the intention of the people
of the Matanuska Valley to fos-
ter construction of plant at
the mine mouth by any means
possible.
From MEAS point of view, a
mine mouth plant offers the
only advantage in joining the
proposed generation and trans
mission cooperative, the MEA
manager said. All three cooper
atives and REA have averred
their belief in the G and T con-
cept.
However, under present con-
ditions, if MEA becomes
member of the proposed G & T,
our wholesale power costs will
rise Immediately about 10 per
cent. The reason for this is
that the present REA-financed
generation and transmission
system has sources which vary
in cost XVIII of production
from 6.8 mills to AL mills.
In contrast to this, and based
The frontiersman., 1963-10-31

upon a fuel cost of 25 cents
per million BTU's at the mine
mouth, and SO cents per million
BTU's in Anchorage, a 33 NV
unit will produce for approx
mately Sc mills for XVIII for
Sutton and To mills per XVIII
for Anchorage.
MEA figures indicated that
average system cost would be,
over a 10-year period, III mills
per XVIII for the Sutton plant,
and 1903 mills per XVIII for
the Anchorage location. REA
figures showed the difference
to be 3 mills in favor of the
Anchorage location-no radical
difference, the MEA manager
pointed out.
The MEA argument that with
so slight a difference the other
economic factors should be con-
sidered has not yet been ac-
cepted by REA.
Although MEA will continue
to work toward G & T, the
question of representation has
not yet been settled. The CEA
board of directors is now ask
ing for a working majority on
both membership and board of
directors, which would insure
that cooperative control under
any conditions. MEA feels that
this point must be settled be-
fore going on to other facets of
G. & T organization.
