Simpson. Associated Prcsl Staff Writer) Prime Minister Churchill's ox- traordlnary send-off to Viscount Halifax. new British Ambassador to the United Staten. deserves close attention for two ritnc reasons. It put into wor s British fooro that unless tho American aid ledged by the Roosevelt admin- strat-lon is received the war may reault in an inconclusive stale- mate. It revealed, also, that Britain ll sanding more than a new ambassa- dor to replace the late Marquess of Lothlan. She is assigning a key member of her lnnennost war council. a crown minister, a man who ,as Mr. Churchill said, "knows all our secrets." There la no precedent for that, and the implications ore lnesco - able. They make crystal clear t o fact that Britain's war leadership lo not concerned primarily over her ablllt to survive German ottac . Their concern is with ways zxrld means of achieving a positive o . ofngi-eat significance la the fact that Lord Halifax will hold ox of- flclo cabinet status while at his 0st. ‘Phat opens to President oosevelt o direct avenue o! a - preach‘ to andtlngluenoo upon bu is Bi- war s raeg counc s an the ohoplnf of Br tlsh war and ms. post-war a What mi ht atom out of that ultimately reshape Anglo-Am- erican relations or affect deo- tlny of Europe or the word lo beyond conjecture.
