i scapegoats for the far eastern re- VCFSCS.

llouse Atmosphere Tense

The atmosphere of the House was tense as Mr. Churchill delivered his lengthy review of the war lasting one hour and 24 minutes, 15m, there was not-hing in the Prime Minister's manner to indicate that he felt it. Sometimes smiling, he had the House sometimes laughing at his saliies, such as his advice to members not to be mealy-mouthed in debate or chlcken-Iiearted in the lobby.

_Hni"dness entered his voice at times, especially when lie declared he was no going to make scapegoats bsainst his conscience and better Judgment.

The motion on which the house will vote at the conclusion of the three-day debate ivas tabled t0- night. It reads: "That lllis House has confidence in His Majesty's government and will aid it to the utmost in vigorous prosecution of the war." It was signed by Mr. Churchill and by Clement Attlee, Sir Archibald Sinclair and Ernest Brown, the leaders of the four main parties in the government. It will be moved by a minister when the debate is rcsinned tomorrow.

Offer Amendments

Two amendments been offered. Denis Pritt, K. C.. In- dependent mcmbcr for North Ham- mersmith, and William Gallaclier, Clydeslde Communist, sponsored an amendment stating that "while the House reposes great confidence in the Prime Minister, it urges him forthwith to reconstruct the govern- ment in order to allay public anxi-

e

Sir Henry Morris-Jones. Liberal National, member for Denblgh, and Edgar Granville, another Liberal National are proposing to limit the expression of confidence to the Priinc Minister. and the Independ- ent Labor party also plans an a- mendment expressing its views. However, it is possible that none will be called as the Speaker could decree a straight vote on the gov- ernment motion.

While some observers considered that. Mr. Churchill's powerful speech had fairly well deflated the opposi- tion, the best debaters among his critics, such ns Emanuel Shinwell, Labor. niid l/rslie Horc-Belisha, Liberal National, are yet to go into action. ‘Today's speakers other than the Prime Minister, including P‘. W. Paihick-Lawrence, lender oi um nominal opposition, for the moat part iverc critical of the govern- ment but their arguments seemed to make little impression on the House.

The Prime Minister, before deal- ing with British WEVOTSOS in the far east. examined the position of Rus- sill and of the British army in North Africa. he Sfllti the large quantities of military equipment sent to Rus- sin had made a contribution to the victory oi’ the Rs-d army and had serve-d lo cement relations between (Ire British and Russian BOW-I'll- moms.

to India. Persia, the Persian Gulf, the Nile Valley and the Suez Can- al" had been averted.

Refers To Libya

In Libya, he said. if the British 8th army had not been able to whi a. full victory, it had at least made "a highly profitable transaction" in killing, wounding or capturing two thirds of the nxis forces, or 61.000 men. British losses totalled in kill- ed, wounded and captured ziboui 18,000 officers and men. iize greater part of them Britons. The Prime Munster added: "during the Libyan battle we have never had more than 45.000 men against en enemy double that strength."

He expressed the opinion that the Libyan battle would have bfcn lost late in November if Gen. Sir Claude Auchinleck. the commander in Chief, had not intervened, (Hang- ed the command "and ordered the ruthlem pressure of the attack to be maintained without regard for consequences." He referred lo the removal of the 8th aimy command- er, Liz-Gen. Sir Alan Cunningham, who was succeeded by LL-Gen. Neil Ritchie.

Outlines measures For price control At local meeting

Forty members oi various wom- en's organizations greeted Madame Pierre F. Cssgrain in the Charlotte- town Hotel last night, when she outlined plans which aim to ee- cure for the Canadian government, ihe assistance of three million Can- adian women in carrying out the Dominions Price Control measures.

Mrs. Ernest S. Coffin was elecird chairman of a. women's adviscry committee, which will collaborate with the local Wartime Prices and Trade Board, and will carry out ecl- iicational work throughout the pru- vincc.

Mrs. Casgrsin, who arrived in the city by plane from Saint John yes- terday mornlng, in s. brisk, inform- nl speech pictured in general terms the objectives of the Wartime Priczs and Trade Board, and the Vital ne- cessity ot having Canadian women support those objectives to the lull. She emphasized that B0 per cent cl the consumer goods purchased, were bought by the women of Canada. and the success or failure of price control lay in their hands.

Mr. Gordon F. McDonald, repre- sentative of the Regional Wartime Prices and Trade Board of Prince Edward Island was present. and an- swered a number of questions with regard to ceiling prices, and various rulings of the Board. It ivas imper- ative, Mr. McDonald said. that basic period prices must be observed, and this was the backbone of the gov- ernment's Price Control measures.

Speaking oi complaints ivlilcli might be received at his office. Mr. McDonald explained that all infor- mation brought to his office was treated as confidential, and no one need have any hesitation in report- ing a breach of price control regu- lations.

Mrs. Casgraln. before the mcezlng proceeded to nominate an advisory itoinmittiee, said that coiiimlitccs were being set. up in cities where the Wartime Prices Board had es- tablished regional offices. so that close liaison could be maintained between the committees and such offices. The activities of these com- mittees will be to inform the wom- en of Canada about the functions of the Wartime. Price and ‘Trade Boards. to help less-informed wom- en in the community, to organize a panel of speakers who will ad- dress meetings lhrcuglicut the prov- ince, and to arouse the interest of women in Price Control.

It is the intention. said Mrs. Cas- grain, to hold a mass meeting of women in Charlottetown on Febru- ary 28, when she will return to act as guest speaker.

Meantime the Advisory Conimit- tee would proceed with its work of organization and education in pre- paration for obtaining the active aid oi’ every woman on the Island.

Mrs. Casgraiifs appeal drew im- mediate support and the following Advisory Committee was selected before adjournment: Mrs. Ernest Coffin. Chairman, Mrs. E. S. Town- shend. Secretary Mrs. F. J. Casey. Mrs, Frank MacPliec, Miss Mabel Matliieson. Mrs. Allie Mutcli, Mrs. Edwin Cook, Mrs, Fred (‘rates- Miss Ethel Stewart. Mrs. J. E. Cullen. Miss Mary Irving. Mrs. Percy Will- iams, Mrs. Gus MacDonald, Mrs. J. A. Lawson.
