An interview with Mr Arthur Greenwood, the Minister concerned with the study of after-war
reconstruction problems, by- HENRY LONGHURST.
WHEN, as Mr Churchill put
it in describing the end of the last war, "the lever is pulled-Full Steam Astern," and the vast
machine. comes at last to a halt, what then?
war
Economic chaos, poverty, slump, unemployment? Or a better, greater democracy with Bucurity and a fair chance for every man?
We cannot settle comfort- ably down to solve these pro- plems on Armistice Day. They have to be tackled now.
The man appointed by the Prime Minister to make the first survey of how, having won the war, we muy win the peace, is Mr Arthur Green- wood, Minister Without Port- folio.
his title is Omcially "Chairman of the Ministerial. Committee charged with the study of post-war reconstruc- tion problems." But he does
that not expect to see construction completed in his fifty, lifetime. Thirty, even years he thinks it may take.
MOBILISE BRAINS

"If we win the war in a military sense," he says, "and then can't show that make democracy work, we've as good as lost the war."

Mr Greenwood, all his life, has been a good "Party" man, But he will liave no question of mere partisanship in his pre- sont work.
He emphasised, as did the Prime Minister recently, that neither he nor any State Ministry can build a. new heaven and a new earth. "Wo must build the kind of country
the people want and are them- selves willing to build.
And so he has begun by becoming a kind of clearing house for ideas, as expressed by "responsible" shades of opinion.
He will listen hot only to trade unions and employers' federations, but also to bodies like the Institute of Inter national Affairs, the Workers' Educational Association, and the 1940 Council, consisting of scientists, doctors, lawyers, business men and women, pre- sided over by Lord Balfour of Burleigh.
Ex-
"My business will be to mobilise the brains, perience, insight, imagination of all the people who can be of real use," said Mr Greenwood. "This job has got to be a vast.. co-operative enterprise.
"I've got no- department here at the moment-just a man and a boy, as you might no departmental say-and limitations; and, believe me, I understand something about those!.
"There is no Minister of Reconstruction yel. What we shall see after the war is successive Governments of Reconstruction."
Mr Churchill, ́incidentally,' has hinted that he will set up a Ministry of Reconstruction. After the last war this Ministry was a failure. It is common political knowledge. though Mr Greenwood himself did not say so, that it falled because the other Ministrica cach wished to do their own "reconstructing" for them-
selvos.
can hold all the complications of a problem like this. What we achieve will be the work of many minds, the result of co- operation.'
While we were talking, his secretary asked what should be done with a certain docu- ment. "All right, put it in my homework," he said.
I asked him whether he en- visaged huge unemployment after the war. "Did you go to the People's Convention?" he replied. "No? Nar did I though I think we might have had a comic afternoon. Well, one of those present, I think it was Pritt, said that I had declared that we should have seven million unemployed after the war.
"What I have said is that if we don't organise our re- sources, there will be vast unemployment on that scale after the wor. I believe we have huge untapped re- sources that will help to bring the world out of post-. war poverty. I don't say easily, but I think it can be done.
"There will be jobs of every kind to be done all over the world. Buildings to be built, people to be clothed and shod
and that great task, develop- ing the resources of the Dominions and Colonies,"
The Prime Minister sug- gested last August that we should accumulate at our dis- posal, not necessarily in Eng- land, stocks of food and raw materials with which to help in the economic restoration of the freed people of Europe after the war. "You can

we're getting down to that problem at this present time," Mr Greenwood told me.
PLANNED INDUSTRY
So we passed, naturally, to the question of controlled— Compulsory if you like-plan- ning of industry after the war. How long would it last?
This is a question I have put to many Ministers. It i a question that makes them shy like a horse at a traction engine. Mr Greenwood was no exception.
So I report off my own bat, as it were, that the im- pression I have gained from these Ministers, irrespective of party, is that they all be. lieve that the control of la- dustry exercised through emergency must be con- tinued long, long after the war is over.
"I'll say this, though," said Mr Greenwood.. "Go. to the blitzed industrial areas, as I have done, and you will see that the war has broken down a devil of a lot of frontiers,
"You will see Whitehall, trade unions, employers, local government men-all pulling together. That's the spirit I want to sco go on after the war."
Broadly speaking, he hopes to see the general principics of reconstruction announced, before the end of the war, and to have plans completed for the "sword-into-plough- shares" period immediately following the peace.
But he promise no rendy made "Now Order." The
"I shall work with the other Ministries," said Mr Green-people, he saya, must make wood. "No single man's brain that for themselves.
