Mr. King Grows Teslier

Hon. john Bracken need only open his mouth these days in criticism of Mr. King, and the Prime Minister ‘is on his feet in the House of Commons making testy protestations in his own defense. This has happened several times with regard to Mr. Bracken's charge that the Gov- ernment's $200,000,000 family allowance meas- ure-—not to come into force until Dominion Day, 1045, coiisitlerzibly after the time the Gov- ernment must appeal to the people—ainounts simply to political bribery. In a recent state- ment .\lr. King denounced Mr. Bradken and lauded his own personal record and attitude to- wards social measures, boasting of having gain- ed the support of the people "in a larger meas- ure than any other man in the public life of Canada."

The Opposition leader, Mr. Gordon Gray- doii, in reply reiiiiiiileil .\lr. King that "neither he nor any other member of this IIoiise can properly lsy claim to ii llltlll0ptlly upon the finer feelings which the Prime Blinister expressed, or the social philosophy which I fancy is in the minds of the membership of this party about which he geuerzilizeil so freely.” Neither W15 honggty of puypose a monopoly of the Prime Minister. lle recalled that this was not his first attempt to pick s. quarrel with the leader of the Progressie Conservative party 0n sim- ilar (piestions. "livery time the Prime. Minister thinks of john llraclceu, his blood pressure mi- mediately rises. Perhaps it. is good fOY i115 health that john Bracken is not in the House, because I ain afraid that if our leader were

closer to him the Prime Minister would suf- fer collapse." Mr. King's chief complaint seemed to be that Mr. Bracken was criticizing him without having taken a seat in the TIOUSE-‘ZIS if any public man is not open tc criticism from any source, in or out of Parliament, under British democracy. "From the information I gift," MF- Graydon added, “the probietii is not how to get john Bracken a seat in this chambfll‘. but how the Prime- Minister is to retain Il1¢ 593‘ he has for Prince .-\lbert." _ _

M; King's touchy attitude is reminiscent of the lack of control he showed on another occas- ion preceding an election in \\'l1iCl1 11¢ ‘Vent down to defeat. It was .\lr.

Since the invasion details of a new high- specd British fighter plane and a secret glider have been revealed. The new plane, the Tenip- est, is powered by a single stipcrchzirgcd engine enabling flying at high altitudes with phenom- enal speed. The Air Ministry credited much of the success of the inland fighting on the Normandy beachhead to the llaiuilcar glider, kept a secret until the invasion. The glider, tow- ed by R. A. F, lieavies, was believed by the Germans to be a troop carrier, but instead it carried a light tank.

A reciprocal income tax and succession duty agreement between all countries in the British Comiuotiwcalth was urged in the Senate by Senator Rupert Davies (L., Ontario). Suc- cession duties became a topic of Senate discus- sion when second reading was given a bill rati- fying a tax convention with the United States to eliminate duplicate taxation. The provisions of the agreement were outlined by Senator Sal- ter Hayden (L., Ontario). Senator Peter Campbell (L., Ontario) endorsed the agree- ment as a measure likely to encourage a flo\v of United States‘ capital to Canada. Three members of the Upper House-Senator John T. Haig, acting Progressive Conservative lead- er, Senator \V. D. Euler (L., Ontario), and Senator James Murdock (L., Ontario) — said steps should be taken to eliminate duplication of succession duties among the provinces. l! ll

Prime Minister Churchill on his recent visit to Normandy spoke to his soldier audience with his customary salty humor. lle spoke of Hit- ler as “the old boiinder"-—a phrase which The (jaiiadiau Press describes as "a rough approxim- ation of the \vord he used.” Referring to the great disturbance in the Nazi machine, he said: “Think how you would feel if there “'33 a revolution at home and they were shooting at cabinet ministers.” Obviously confident that the war would end before long, he added, with a broadly humorous tone and gesture, "within two or three years. I never promise anything." But with this humor, there were the deeper moods, in which he sensed the historic greatness of the present. With proud voice and looking
