By FRASER. WIGHTON

LONDON (Reuters) -Sir Wins- ton Churcbill. greatest Engl' ” of modern times and ' among world statesmen of the 20th century, fulfilled his real destiny let an age when most men retire. He was in his 66th year when called to the leadership of the British people in the Second World War. it was the climax of a career crowded with adventure and with honors. His versatile genius already had expressed it- self in a score of directions-in Churchill the soldier. the war cor- respondent. the statesman. the author and the lecturer. Oddly. the man who will go down in history as perhaps .Br1t- ain's greatest commone is a scion of one of her most aristo- cratic families - the dukes of Marlborough.

CONFOUNDED CRITICS

His political critics often have tried to brand his a protector of money and class privilege. But he has many times confounded them by his deep understanding oi or- dinary peopls and his warm bu-

shunned honors which would take him away from the House of Commons or bury the name of Churchill under a title. He could have been a duke after his war- time triumphs. but turned the of- fer down. As long as history books are written. men will ask what was the mainspring that made his a giant among men. Many will say it was his great sense of history .tbe realization that men. politics and diplomacy remain basically the same no matter how the world changes. From this springs his ability to see immediately the heart of a problem and so take quick dun- sions with supreme confidence.

sense or DRAMA

Churchill loves life and his iron frame has enabled him to extract the maximum from it. It has been said that the eternal boyishness in him is one of his most sustain- ing qualitles. ; He is something of an actor. The b dog jut of his chin in metric of crisis. the two fing- ers iabbed upwards in the "V" sign. the eternal cigar. the funny hats are part of that side of his character.

His sense of drama displayed itself often during the War. Cal- led on to make a historic an- nouncement in Parliament. he would heighten the effect by a deliberate verbal stumble.

He is the kind of man that British people like their public figures to be-a devoted husband and father. a family man.

SPARKS CANTIIOVERSY

But no one has figured in more controversy or provoked more criticism than Churchill.

Yet it was he who. when his hour came. welded all sections of the British nation into a unified force and by, the vowel” 01 NI psrsonsu inspired them to the

of the wartime government. he by

those close to him in Parliament, he added. ruefully: "I don't know what we shall do it witb-chop- pers, hatchets and broken bottles. I suppose."

in the tragic days leading up to the fall of France before Hit- ler's legions. be twice flew across the English channel to confer with French leaders and took the unprecedented step of offering France a "solemn act of union" with Britain. which was rejected.

nook or FAITH

To Britain, standing alone in the dark and. it seemed, endless winter of 1940, Churchill was the rock of national faith and endur- ance. His voice on the radio gave the British people the will to fight.

To the peoples and partisan fighters of Geiman-occupied Eu- rope, his words. clandestineiy beard. brought hope. "Victory" was Churchill's watch- word and with unflagging energy he worked for its achiev i As defence minister. he had the prodigious task of directing prac- tically every phase of the war ef- tort at home and overseas. As prime minister. he regarded it as a personal responsibility to- be continually at the disposal of Par- llament. answering for the con- duct of the war. On top of all this. he held it indispensable to maintain the closest contact with the Allied leaders-ready to go to any part of thp world at a momentls not- ice for personal meetings.

COVERED GROUND

Within six days of the Allied landings in France in June. 1944. he was on the Normandy beaches. seeing the battle for himself. By the end of 1944. when he had reached the age of .70. Chur- chill was reckoned to have cov- ered 40.000 miles journeying back and forth over a war-swept world, in May. 1945. when the uncondi- tional surrender of Germany crowned the efforts of the Allies. Churchill was the only man who had been in the war ” i Coil- tlnuously since its fomiation in 1939. Through the greatest of all ordeals. he had personified the deatliless determination of the nation and Commonwealth to achieve victory at whatever cost. But in July. 1945. the Conserva- tive psrty's defeat at the general election came as a bombshell to

him.

He commented: "Some people. tell me it is a blessing guise-all I can say is that is is a very good disguise." Later he was to describe the event as his "per- sonal Dunkerque."

REGAIN ED LEADERSHIP

But he was too seasoned a cam- paigner to indulge in self-pity. Within days he was planning how best to lead an aggressive opposi- tion against the Labor govern- ment. He displayed the same vi- gor and intensity as he had shown through the war years. His efforts were rewarded in the general election of 1951 when. soon after his 77th birthday. he found himself prime minister again. Once more he was his country's man of destiny at a time of chaos and confusion when the world was problems of had been

the streets to cheer him was honored in Westminster Hall by an assembly of Lords members of the House of Com- mons. who presented him with a

portrait of himself.

Churchill started'the year 1955 faced by the grave Formosa crisis. About that time he revealed that an illness in the summer of 1953 had been caused by a slight seiz- ure which had paralyzed his left side. He had van uished this tem- sability with his

porary physical usual determination.

WARBIOITS HERITAGE

Churchill's heritage is that of a warrior, and the fighter's glint childhood

first filled his eyes in games with tin soldiers.

His birthplace. Blenheim Palace. Marlborough family in Oxfordshire. was built to commemorate the victory won by his ancestor. John Churchill. Duke of Marlborough, against the at Blen-

historic seat of the

French and Bavarians helm in 1704.

There he was born Nov. 30. 1874.

and

Picture-highlights of the life of Winston Churchill show him: (1) as a war correspondent in Boer War, where he

eldest son of Lord Randolph Churchill. who was third .son of the seventh duke. His mother was an American. Jennie Jerome. daughter of Leonard Jerome of New York.

It had been one of Churchill's proudest boasts all his life that his birthright was the blood of the two greai English-speaking na- tions.

MILITARY EDUCATION

As a boy. he expressed the wish to be a soldier and thereafter his education had but this aim. After a few years at Harrow. the -12 school-where, as he often con- fessed. he signally failed to dis- tinguish himself-he entered the Military College at Sandhursirind in 1894 was posted to the 4th Hus- sars Regiment.

He went to Cuba and India and fought in the Nile campaign, tak- ing part in the charge of the 21st Lancers against the Dervishes at Omdurman.

Soon he felt the urge to write and became a war correspondent in the South African war. He was captured by the Boers. but within a month made a spectacular es- cape by jumping onto a freight train.

He entered politics as a Can- servative b of xailiament in 1900. but three years later he

, . ' ' . was captured and imprisoned; .(2 and 3) at.the time of his marriage to Miss Clementine Hozier, in 1908; (4) as First Lord of the Admiralty during World War I; (5) as Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1926, with his wife and children Randolph and Diana; (6) at his hobby-painting; and (7) again First Lord of the Admiralty, as England entered

several important aspe t of po- licy. He became a wholehearted free-trader and joined the Liberal party, in which he remained until 1924 when he returned to the Con- servative fold.

GREAT DIVERSITY

He had occupied a greater diver- sity of ministerial posts than any other man in British politics.

it was only during the Second World War-and after becoming prime minister-that he took over the leadership of the Conservat- ive party.

He always has been regarded as one of the most brilliant de- baters Parliameiit has ever known and has few. if any. peers as a public speaker. His peculiarly son- orous delivery and cultivated fe- licity of phrase give his oratory a style all its own.

During his years in Opposition. after the Second World War. Churchill began the publication of his "War Memoirs." which have been acclaimed throughout the world as a literary masterpiece and most important contribution to history.

In 1953. his gifts as an orator and master of prose were recog- nized by the award of the Nobel Prize for Literature, most coveted honor a writer can gain.

His versatility has shown itself

"nothing but blood and sweat, toil and tears.” During the "blitz" days (9

recognized by the Royal Academy of Arts. of which he is an honor- ary member. Since 1947, several of his pictures have been hung in the academy's yearly exhibitions.

Churchill .was married in 1908 to his devoted "Clemmy"-who was Clementine Hozier. daughter of the late Col. Sir H. M. Hozier. In his own phrase. he has "lived happily ever after.”

They have one son, Randolph. and three daughters. Sarah, Diana and Mary, and several grandchild- ren.

In his garden at Chartweli in Kent Sir Winston often has been found bricklaying-with the rather self-conscious pride of a states- man who can claim to be a mem- ber of the Br'icklayer's Union Other hobbies ' ' d horse racing and breeding. and farming.

He loves to have his grandchild- ren around him. For though he is an old man. he still feels very young.
