In the British elections next week, war pol- icy is not an issue.

Lord Samuel, broadcasting on behalf of the Liberals on the 6th of Junef said: “Happily tll are generally agreed to play our full part h completely winning victory over Japan.” Sir William Beveridge, speaking for the Liberals ln Bristol on 4th of June said: “This election is not about the Japanese war, as its prosecution is common to all parties." Mr. Ernest Brown, Liberal National (supporting the Conservative Party) said 0n 0th of June: “This is a good llingito have Party agreement on the policy that the war against Japan shall be fought to a finish." Mr. A. V. Alexander, speaking for Labour in London 0n 30th May said: “There is no Party that would not be 100% in support l of the ruthless prosecution of the war against l‘ Japan." The Trades Union Council manifesto 1 of 17th June said: “No change of govern- t ment at the general election would change the '» ; purpose of the British people upon that (i.e. l ‘ upon seeing the Japanese war through to final l t victory)." s Mr. Churchill said in his declaration i l l

Mr. Archibald Sinclair, to a special meeting of the Liberal Council in , 14711410" 0Y1 39ll1 May, said the Liberals "would , ' demand all measures necessary for the most vig- " orous prosecution of the war against Japan. They must do that job as thoroughly and quick- ly, and therefore as strenuously, as they could. For this, they would have to retain some form of universal service."

_________i_____ Dominion-Provincial Conference

Prime Minister"King's announcement of a Dominion-Provincial conference Aug. 6 is not the call to action which the people, and more especially the Provincial authorities, had rea- eon to expect, says the Globe and Mail. The August meeting is to be a preliminary to the conference proper, which at the Prime Min- ister's pleasure is projected still further into the unforseeable future. Thus a show of action does service for continued procrastination, and thus the Provinces are kept dancing at the end of the puppet-master's string.

A preliminary session and postponement of the conference for digestion of the discussions initiated there would be understandable had there been no time in ‘which to prepare for the conference. But preparations were begun early last year, when it was expected the con- ference would be called about Easter. A year ago last May a proposed agenda was circulated among the Provincial Governments, which were asked for suggestions, amendments and addi- tions to it. Meanwhile Treasury officers or ‘insncial experts of the Provinces were in Ot- 1w: preparing tnaterial for the use of the con-

Last August Mr. King abandoned the con- bom ference because he objected to the political sen- timents of Ontario's Premier. But as late January this year Ottawa propaganda related that preparations for it were continuing, and “the nucleus of a staff organization for it is in existence." This being so, the new delay, on which Mr. King apparently consulted no one, is the more incongruous. The reabincongruity, however, arises from the fact that the conifer- ence was to be held primarily to co-ordinatc Government planning and marking off ,areas of

There is one factor in the in- creased farm income which must cause a good deal of concern. It is the fact that $104,500,000 of the 1944 farm income was derived from Government subsidies.
