style or speaking Mr. Churchill has much in common with the great Irish Liberal. At least. one would gather as much from one of the latter's biographcrs. Mr. J. R. Green who writes of "his orstory wits passionate ardour. its poetic fancy, its amazing prodigality of resources: the dazzling succession In which irony. pathos. invect.- ive. tenderness. the most brilliant. nord pictures. the coolest argu- ment. followed each other."

Greeioue Gesture

I listened to Mr. Churchill a few years ago when he addressed a rueclal convocation of the Massa- chusetts institute of Technology. During the course of the address-- rme of the most brilliant of his career. some say -- he interjected A short. Latin phrase. ”just to let mu know”, he said jokingly. ”that I knnrw a word or two of Latin". In his latest. speech he gave evidence of some knowledge of French as iteil. Whether it was good. bad. or indifferent is not of much im- portance. The gesture of breaking into "the other language" of Can- rria was it gracious one which did not pass unnoticed. we may b- sure. It was one more demonstra- tion of the master diplomatic iiand.

Federation?

What went. on in the Churchill- Truman conversations is known only to those who took part in them. and they are not likely to irll. at least for some time to come. For all that. one sentence in the Ottawa speech seemed to convey an inkling of at least one subject which miitht have been on the rlzcnda. I am thinking of the ref- erence he made to N. A.T.O. "I hope". he said, "it will develop not only into a strong military alliance but also into a community having for its goal the welfare and hap- pinoss of a free world".

This would appear to suggest that he is in favour of the ultim- ate creation of what has been de- stribcd as an Atlantic Federation in which there would be free trade unhindered intercourse. and an equitable monetary system. among the constituent members. Many thinking people on hoth sides of the Atlantic are coming to believe that this must eventually come to pass if peace is to be established on any permanent. basis.

There could be many political and economic hurdles to surmount in the development of such it plan. of course. but it is difficult to see how we can be "all unit.ed" and "attend by one another" (to quote Mr. Churchill again) in any other way. somehow. it does not seem right to infer that military neces- sity is the onlv motive for binding together peoples and nations of similar cultural and political ideals.

It does not appear that the rout- ing of isolatinnism from any dem- ocratic commu ity. a process which .ie now just about complete. is quite enough to ensure the "welfare and happiness" of the free nations. let alone of all mankind. Something more is necessary. and that some. thing more may well be I freely entered into Atlantic Federation. tor myself. I believe we shall be lie ring a great deal about this as line goes on.
