The Duke and Duchess had 52 pieccs oi luggage. Arrival of the Duke's three dogs was; the first. concrete evidence ncwsmen had that he would sail. His dcPBW-"e had been doubted until the last minute.

The Duke was delayed in motor- inc to the ship from the home of his host. the Portuguese banker Ricardo Espirtto Santa. with ivhom he had stayed during the month that has elapsed since he came with the Duchess from France. via Spain.

Sailing as plain Mr. and Mrs. Windsor. the Duke and Dutihv-i‘ occupied a comfortable vcrandah suite situated mklshiP on the 5W- bozird side. with a small hall and six two-bed cabins.

Buff Cooper Defends Self Against Charges

LONDON. Aug. l -tCP Cable) — Aifrcd Duff Cooper, Minister of Inforziiation. ilcfending himself a- nrcss chnrgIs that "C20 snoop s" were akin to the C: -. mini Cicsinpc. told the House of Commons tonight that "the whole 0f this campaign and criticism has bcui started by the press and it is a press stunt."

The press put the label of "Coop- er's snoopors" mi men sent out to “take the national pulse" and can- vass public opinion on the war. The canvass was conducted by ex- ports from he national institute of economic and social research.

Mr. Cooper told Commons: “ll there are any snoopers in the word‘ they are employed b_v the press. We know the tact and considera- tion with which they go into houses of mourning. and ring up at azvk- ward hours."

Winding up a debate launched by Cindi‘. Sir Archibald R. J. South- hv. who claimed tho liousc-to-licilsc canvass was unpopular and an un- neccssaly expense. Mr. Cooper said that it took the press 2 1-2 months to discover that the investigation had been going on.

“Unhappy would be the govern- ment who relied soicly on the press for its information," said the Elin- isfer of Information.

Although the canvass started in mid-May. he remarked. mssnbers of the House of Commons dld not start askin questions about it. and no one CTllLClZCd it until new. when thle press suddenly bccnme criti- ca .

Mr. Cooper disclosed that the ministry's home intelligence sec- tion, which received reports of the scientific opinion testers. had ad- vised for instance against the "now dead silent column"—he referred to the recent easing cf the govern- ment's “Irush-liush" policy —lmd added: “I regret now that their adviloe was overlooked."

Lady Astor. supporting Mrl Cooper said she did not believe the Ministry of Informationfis opinion had aroused any feeling in the country. but she said she believed there was a feeling about "this con- stant. sniping at the national gov- ernment because the country was never more united in history than now." -

He claimed Britain relented Adolf Hitlers peace appeal be- cause she "does not wish to give up colonies" and prefers to “continue the war for world supremacy." Al- though her French ally is gone, she has “decided to continue the war relying On the assistance of the United States." he said.

Oi’ the defeat of France-which still has a mutual assistance pact with Russia that has never been abrogated tormally—Molotoff said it. was due not onl to mili- tary weakness but: to t e fact that "lending circles in France treated

too light] the role and weight of thie Sovte Union in European af- fa rs."

hfolotoff said he hesitated to dwell on Russian-American re- lntimis ‘ "there is noth- lng good that can he said about them."

"imperialist appetites are grow-

“not. only in distant Japan but also in the United States. where there are not a few people who like to conceal their imperialist designs behind well-advertised ‘concern’ for the interests of the entire ‘western hemisphere’ which these gentlemen are prepared to turn into their property with rill its numerous republics and with the colonial possessions of other countries on islands in the neigh- borhood of the American contin-

en .

“All this harbors danger of fur- ther extension and fanning of the war and its being turned into a world imperialist war.

"Under these conditions the Soviet Union must. enhance its vigilance in the matter of its ex- ternlil security and in the matter of strengthening all its positions, both of. home and abroad."

Molotoff observed that; Germany has not achieved her objcctive— "termination of the war on terms which shc considers desirable."

"There are certain people in the United Stntos who l\l‘(’ not, pleased with successes of Soviet foreign policy in tile Baltic countries." Molotrvff said. “Bill: we are not worried. We can get: along without the help of these displeased gentlemen.

Preliminary Dians were mode for the holding of a mass membership meeting in Prince of Wales Coliege on Friday. August 9th with s. special speaker in attendance. The objective of the mimberllhlp drive would be 700 additional members.

In connection with the publicity

work of the Corps, Mr. J. B. Mur- ley was appointed to supervise the activities of the organization. It W35 “Heated that he prepare the tiappeninss of the Corps with the idea of having them appear in the press to acquaint the general pub- lic with the activities of the organ- izstion. _It has been suggested that the 9WD! Supply volunteers for the National Registration which wil. he held in the City this month, Two hundred and seventy will be needed for this registra- tion in Charlottetown. The mem- bershig of the Corps is not large enoug at present to handle this important work and for this reason the drive for new members will take place.
