The Service will work close- lv with the pcrtnittieut local bodics which are to be established similar to the existing County \\';ir Agricultural Committees. The WirHSll-‘l’ will select the .lll€lllllCl's‘ from the lists submit- ted by the industry and other sources. Their primary duly will bi- to promote agricultural efficiency. (Here again the Government P0l' icy, in the itiaiit, agrees with the recommciidzr iioris of the National Farmers" Union). '.l.'he local committees will also act as the Minister's agents in measures of control to en- sure that land is properly farmed and effici- ently managed. Farmers failing in efficiency will be sun- ject to a period of supervision in w-hich coni- pulsory orders may be served. In the last re- sort they may be dispossessed, though with the right to appeal to an independent tribunal. The Government Pr0p0scs to hand over the land "f; of dispossessed farmers to a special Cmnmis- lion, which would also be empowered to ac- quire other land by voluntary agreement. (This might apply to reclaimed fenland, which fan-tiers might be reluctant to continue work- lug). To eliminate price fluctuation, as occur- red between the wars, the Government proposes to achieve stability by a system of fixing mini- mum pricey-eighteen months ahead for cereals, potatoes and sugar beet, and two to four years ahead for livestock—the latter in view of ad- vance breeding and other commitments. Actual prices are to be fixed after annual reviews in February. At a Press conference Mr. Williams described this as the most important announce- ment on agriculture ever made by any United Kingdom Government. At long last, he said, British farmers could plan ahead, even for livestock The National Farmers‘ Union have ac- claimed the statement as a statesmanlike ef- fort, though some sections of the country re- gard the continuation of controls as in lvartimc as a heavy price to pay for agricultural stability. The Situation In Java Reports from Batavia indicate continued Indonesian armed resistance to the British "cleaning up” operations at Sourabaya. That operation is being pursued carefully and meth- odically. The Allied Commander-iii-Chief, Major-General Manserglt, is concerned to keep unavoidable casualties dowti to the minimum, in which he has been successful. It is pointed out in Londoti that the op- eration at Sotirabaya is local and punitive. Major-General Mansergh explained the motives of this action in a leaflet dropped on Sourabaya on November f). The Indonesians at Soura- baya lfCflClllffOUQly attacked the British forces. British personnel were killed and wounded. In- terncd women and children were massacred Finally Brigadier hlallaby was foully murder- ed whilst trying to implement the truce, which hd been broken in spite of an Indonesian fiderfalcing. It is worth reineinbcritig that the British forces in the Netherlands East Indies are aet- ing on behalf of the United Nations. They are fulfilling the tasks assigiied to them by the Potsdam Conference. They have been set three objectives, and three only: to disarm the Japanese, to rescue prisoners of war and in- fcrriccs, rand to maintain law and order. ‘The British forces are not to be deterred from pur- suing these three courses, from which they are not deviating. They are not attempting This is the desired aim of all‘ secret organization, not only in the Nether- lands East Indie; but throughout South-East NOlPs n8 Way Asia,‘ the aim being to stimulate and support the independence movement, not f0!‘ the 681w of the peoples concerned, but to create trouble for the Allies. The Japanese inLcnfiOn was. it is believed, that a mushroom crop of weak, in- dependent states should grow up lhflllllihm" ill? Far East, only to eke out a precarious exist- encc until they — the Japanese — were ready to swallow them up. For the Japanese are con- fident that they will return. The Japanese have secretly provided these independence move- ments with arms and instilled irito the more impressionable hotheads their own hatred of the West. The seed thus sown has borne fruit. lt is emphasized in London that the prob- lem is therefore to disarm and isolate the Japanese, so long as they are not repatriated, to take possession of the arms which they have distributed in defiance of the surrender terms, to bring the Terrorists among the Nationalists to book, and to treat the remainder by the ap- plication of an antidote to the Japanese poison. That antidote is to set an example of moderation and justice, coupled with firmness. In: Peace As In \Var Iii his message for -Navy Week, n01! being observed throughout Canada. Hon. Doug- las Abbott, Minister of Naval: Services, eut- pliasizes the fact the Navy League activities have been a very definite factor iii the main- tenance of the ivar-time morale of men whose comings and goings over the great waters pro- vided a contribution to victory so great that the war most ccrtaitily would not ltave been won without it. “No man can tell what the future will hold for us," he adds, "‘but the past has shown clearly enough how important it has been for us that the control of the sea should remain in the hands of those pledged to the maintenance of that peace which alone is our true security." Iii addition to its work atuoiig naval rat- ings and merchant seamen. the Navv League sp0it50rs the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets and, in co-operation with the Naval Service, sends many thousands of cadets to its summer camps. In barracks the cadets are taught many useful subjects as well as the importance of self-discipline and respect for authority- necessary training in peace as in war for the all-important responsibilities of citizenship.
