Government Criticism in striking contrast to the hostility of thcKing Government towards newspaper criticism Ii the attitude shown by the Churchill Government in the Old Country. The London correspondcntlof the Winnipeg l-‘rcc Press has an interesting article on this subject which is worth directing to the special attention of l’rime ll/linistcr King and IIII colleagues. Britain's war effort is represented u proceeding under s constant, unccasing barrage of criticism, both from Parliament and the press. And the Government welcome this evidence of alert public opinion. It does not turn upon tti critics and accuse tlicni of “sabotagc", of “libel- Ioui, false and itiitlicititts" statements. As Mr. Churchill sztirl in the House of Commons on Jan. 22, criticism is of tlic greatest value “to the life- thrtist of the tuition, and of the greatest assistance to llis .\lajcsty's tiovcriinicnt." Mr. Churchill told the country tliiit “an awful lot of things could be done better,” and therefore, he did not resent being tulil 50. “llis Majesty's Government,” he sititl, "\velc<riiii:s the stimulus that the House of LfillIIllUIh and tltr press and the public of this island give to us in driving forward our war ef- fort iniil lll trying to gain ztn earlier inch or a more fruitful hour. wltcrt-vt r it may be possible.” The frcc plzty of criticism is regarded in the Old Cottntrg; ats the great adviiittiigc that a dctitocrncy holds over It (IICIZIIUYSIIII). tjermany ts stinking plrtit_y' of titistzikes, although nobody livars of flu-tn. AIhITIhCS in war are inevitable - itnd costly. llttt in Iirlllllll, the whole field of the \\'.'tt' effort is opt ll lo critics. and no one pretends that the tiovtiinnotit coitlil ltiive made anything like IIH’ iIl4|Qll\\ ninth ltiis lrcctt made without thi. ctrn-"ttittt spur.

And the com- mittee publishes reports front time to time, lam- bitstiitg this or the other department of Govern- ment. - So with the newspapers. The Times hits the Governntettt just as hard as the Manchester Guardian. The Yorkshire Post doesn't scent to be iii the slightest affected by the faintly connec- tion with Rt. llon. Atitltutty’ Eden-it uttcovcrs every weakness which falls under its view. The Glasgow Herald, the Scotsman, the Telegraph and Morning Post and the whole popular press are hot on the sccnt of wcaltitcsses in the war ei- fort. All this notwithstanding the fact that every- body in Britain, pretty well, is back of the Churc- hill Government. Everybody admires it for the leadership it has shown-and everybody is keen to see it do even better. The public attitude is thus suitiincd tip by the Illancltcster Guardian in a recent issue: "In the critical temper of the coun- try, there is no hostility toward the Government . . .But in war, the ordinary canons of extenua- tion cease to hold; we cannot excuse or tolerate the second best. The Government must and will expect to be judged by the most exacting stan- dard." The standard, of course, is the absolute maxi- mum of fighting power. Nothing short of that is satisfactory. The King Government must rea- lize that a similar temper is beginning to prevail, in Canada, and that neither recriminations hos‘ nlibis are an effective answer to the repeated de- mands for more effective action.
