Pick Churchill As Man 0f The I Half-Century

NEW YORK, Dec. 26 - HIP)»- Winston Churchill _ Time mag- azine editors say - is the "man of the half-century."

The portrait of the wartime coal. ltion prime minister by artist Ern- est Hamlin is on the cover of the Jan. 2 Time which contains a ill-page supplement "The Half- Century."

“Nq man's history." Time says, “can sum up the dreadful-won- derful years 1900-50, Churchill's story comes closest."

Describing tho British Conserv- ative loader as "one of the half- centuryls greater politicians," Tifllb says; "Sometimes wrong, often right, he fought his way toward the heart of every storm.

"In i000, Churchill, lilce his 0on- temporaries, looked forward to pleasant years. Like his contemp- oraries, Churchill was to struggle through depths and rise to heights unimaginable to 1900."

1n gummarlzlng the period, Time weaves Churchill's career into the international picture.

"His chief ‘contribution was to warn of rocks ahead. and to lead the rescue parties. He was not the man who designed the ship: What he did was to launch the lifeboats. That a free world survived in 1960. with a hope of more progress and less calamity, was due in lame measure to his exertions."

Time adds that Churchill "as mubillzer of two great national dc- fence efforts (two world wars) un- wittingly contributed more thou all the Fabians to the triumph of the socialist state."
