Food production. financing. a wide range of external affairs, housing, the continuance of coli- ~trols, relations with provincial governments and the military and civilian supplies situation all are subjects to be examined by the ministers.

W th no statement coming from the east block, where the minis- ters meet, sources generally in- formed on government activities said they believed the question of whether men called for com- pulsory military service should be conscripted for overseas had been examined. They saw indications that the policy of all service over- seas being on a voluntary basis would remain unchanged.

Reports Cabinet Crisis

The Ottawa Evening‘ Journal said in a newspage story, how- ever, that a cabinet crisis over military manpower today reached a “florid tide which threatened to end either in a decision to send Canada's home defence army the battlcfronts or resignation from the cabinet of some principal

CIIIIECl-tlp men overseas were De- fence Minister Rzilston and Navv Minister Macdonald. Supporting their vlcw were Resources Minis- ter Crcrar, Revenue Minister Gib- son, State Secretary McLarty and Trade Minister MacKinnon. Air Minister Power also is believed to be supporting the other defence ministers.

Mr. King's position is not known. the Journal said. If he decided the voluntor system can no longer supply an a equate flow of trained troops he might summon Parlia-

ment and submit to it an order-L ,, in-couiicil to dispatch compulsory | Rmmm c°1h°11° Qmtbec‘

The paper continued:

"If, on the other hand. Mr. King takes the ground that ho still thinks the voluntary system is adequate, and refuses to not. the resignations of Defence Min- fster Ralston, Navy Minister Mne- donald, and possibly of Messrs. Crerar, Gibson. McLarty and some others. will be almost certain."

"In that event, either one of two things would hapcpen: Mr. Kins mlsht rfllsn an ask the Govemor-General to call upon Mr. Ralston or Mr. Mncdonaid, or somebody else, to form a cabinet; or Mr. King might dissolve Parlia- ment and go to the country on his stand.

“In informed, responsible cir- cles bodny the belief was that Mr. King would shrink from both of these drastic courses; that, in the

end, he will decide to send the zombies overseas. even though reluctantly.”

But he said there was no connec- tion between the Gauss otrsigiiaiion and the recall oi Gen. Stiilveli which was cntlrclv the result p! a clash of personalities between the Gui- eral and the head of the Chinese

state.

'1‘ c President's revelations left a lot oi room for further specglm. diplomatic

ment. He had no information about a successor to Ambassador Gauss and said the selection of a xiew Amer- ican chief of staff to Cniang was a matter for the armv to finch-lg,

It has alrl-adv been announced. however. that Mat-Gen. Albert 999W Wodomveij of Omaha had aiiived in Chuiilzkiiig to Bssujng com. mand of the American forces iii China and to act as chief of staff to Chiang._

Mr. Roosevelt said that if he hap- pened» to take a dislike to a British diplomat in Washinj ii he would ask Prime Minister Churchill to re- call him. That was what happened- in tho case of Gen. Stilwcll.

Gen Stilwell had done supremely well iii his lob and the President was personally verv ioiul of him. but it was human nature for one person w take a dislike so another. Iii this case rt halliienad to be the supreme head of it great state.

By Preston Grover

NEW DELHI, oet. a1 _ (AP)_. The removal of Gen. Stilwell as commander in the China-India- Ellrma. theatre. it can be reported today. resulted from a combinat- ion of strategy and diplomacy such ’.i5 could arise only in the Orient.

It is possible only today to get further details passed through censorship.

The abrupt new shaping of the whole American position in this port of ihc war front began with tlie arrival in Chuiigking two months ago of May-Gen. Patrick Hurley and Donald M. Nel both carrying vast powers designed to get from China some solid com- mitments for increased co-operat- ion with America in the war ag- ainst Japan.

The Associated Press is informed that the commitments were given virtually under threat of American withdrawal of her support of Chiangs government.

In turn. tlie Associated Press was informed under circumstances lea- ving no doubt as to the report's cc- curacy, a lost-minute softening in Ithe American attitude resulted in in an agreement for the withdraw- al of Gen. Stilwell as supreme com- mandcr in the C. B. I. theatre as n face-saving and pacifylng ges- ture demanded by the Chinese President.
