CONFERENCES WITH CABINET MINISTERS Asmentioned in an earlier article in addition ta the vonference w'hkJh 'we had with Britain-'s Prime Minis- ter, we bad informai meetings witb a number ai tbe Cabinet Ministers. Natur'ally as editors we were par-1 ticularly interestedl in meeting the i Minister cxf Information, tbe Hon.r Brendan Bradken. BefoTe his aip- i 'pointment ta this posit in July, 1941, Mr. Bradken was Parliame-ntany Sec- i retary ta Prime IMnâster Churcbill. Re bias badipractical publisbing ex- perience, baving been editor of "The1 Bianker", chairman of the "Financialg .Neiws," and managing director of "T!he Econoniist." Mr. Braciten is tbe fourtb man ta have heid rbihe Ministry of Informa- ion 'post since tbe (betginning of the1 war. Our oonference witb bim was an l inspiring one, He tbold us somethin'g1 about wbat England 15 doing. "The people aifEgland," be said, 1' are 'working barder than any other pea- pie have in any war. A senicîs i >nothing but misfortunes bas not de- stroyed aur senses. The English i peropie are al out in teir war ef- fort, but tbey iwill stili do more. WhateveT happons, tbe 'Euglisb will neyer surrender-. 'We will see this tbin;g through ta tbe absolute end. "Somne peaple thlink thet after tbe wan, England wiil give up ber Em- pire and Iniperialsm. This is ýen- tirely wrong. We will not seli our heritage for a mess af potage. We bave an immense contribution ta puy ta postenity, and no government will ever agree ta lthe dismnemberment o the British Empire. "The Britisb lion is not a mangyl dying!animàl, nar 'will he be confined in an iran' 'cage. Only in the yearsi ta corne iwill the effort of Engl'and the really undeistolod.". Sulh was ipart of the message thiatt the Hon. Brendan Bracken bad-for 'Us. We found the Ministry of Inf-orma- tiaon most co-operative 'during aour stay in England. 'The passes issued fby that dapartment were sa effectve thaEt the others wvich had been is- s'ued ta us îwere almost snuperfiuous. We met the Haon. Ernest Bevan, Minister of Labour, in bis office -and had, a taIt witb him. Mr. Bevan was bar 'in 1884 and started his career ais a truck driver, was general sec- retary ai the Transport Workers' Union, and, in 19P40, 'became Minis- ter ai Laibaur îanid National Service. Some people think that be may some day be Prime Minister. Ho bas one of Tfhe most impirtant tasks taday, for Brtain is rnannin'g tilie worid's îgreatest navy, maintain- ing armies in many parts of, the 'world, isupplying 'a steaîdy stream ai youths for the RAiF., keeping up horne defences, lire llghting andl A.R.P. services, andl steadily in- creasing production af war supplies. No wondcr thaet e tolil us thene was ne sMcb tbing as a saturation point in nianpoawer. file bas made a îvrondrul success of bis taýsik, but it musit he remem- ibereil that this resulit couiid niat bave been attained, without the enthusias- tic co-opüratian ai the entre p'opu- lation. In. ianswer ta our queetion he said that there i5 very littie wilful ab- senteeism. But rwhen we asked him about labour troubles la certain places, lie impatientiy replied that tthe newslptpers lied te iiake news,_ 'and "vintue b~arne neiws vaine." He tbinks that the war is teacbing the Unitedi Kingdam a greiat deal. about transportation 'wbich will bave an e'ff ect after ithe war is over. We bail ian interesting canference with the Hon. 'b. S. Ainiery, wba is Secnetany for India andl Burmiea. 'Ho tolil us a igreýt deal about the itran- (blesoime elernents in India. -Most of rus went aîway 'witb a new canceiptiont io the Iludia probleiri. We also be- gan ta realize l1how little mostipeople know a1bout it. Mr. Amery has travelledin l most parts ait the world, andl as we left,, he stiid. '"I rwish the war were aven, 50o that 1 coul pay another visit toe Canada." The last iconierenIce we hail was, with iSir R. ýStafford Cripps, wha las probably better known ta Ganadians than any ather minister except the Prime Minister. Ie bas been a very su'ccessful legal ýcounselia, and is now Lard Privy Seal. Hie bas a very iattractive personal- ty, a keen mind, andilaur whale im- pression tof him was entirely favaun- able. It was an intensely intenest-,' ing con4erenice, for be sapoke af Rus- sia andl bis mission ta that country, and about India andl the failuire of 'his mission there. Sir Sbafford iCripps is a deeply ne- ligiaus man. A iew days before we met hlm he 'bail igiven an addres's in' Bristol which arouserd wide discus- sion. Re declarei that le f cît the iClurcb bail faileil ta give thse lea- dership expected aoi it, anîd that it musit be reawakened ta a realization ai its responsibilities. He thinits that the disestablishment ai the Whrohfa England is not far 'off., Next Vo the canfenence witb Prime ,Miiten ;Churchill, this was the most interesting meeting we bail. 1V gaîve us muclh faod fan t hauglt. 'Our 'canienences with Lard Wooi- ton, Minister aof Food, and the Han. Heribent 'Monrison, Miaister af Rame Seciuity, have been described in proviaus articles.
