"THE CHINA MAIL, NOVEMBER 4, 1939
WAR AIMS CONTROVERSY!
WHAT ARE IDEALS FOR WHICH WE ARE FIGHTING?
Landon, To-day.
MOST OF THE HOME newspapers asked them- selves yesterday very much the same question: What are the ideals for which we are fighting? They arrived at practically the same answer:-For a just peace and, at home and abroad, a settled future.
The "Manchester Guardian” says that it is not shameful to say that democracy in Great Britain is far from being perfect and that the amount of freedom of the people depends on economic cir-
cumstances.
What is shameful is to speak of fighting for democracy and freedom -without a resolve to make the one more perfect and the other less var- iable. In war time, practical social re- forms must give way to measures se- curing the independence of the State. But in peace or war, the planning must go on.
LOTHIAN SPEECH
"The Times" treats with the latter points in its editorial. It refers to the talk given by Lord Lothian, our Am- bassador to Washington, to the Pil- grims of the United States recently.
What Lord Lothian really asked, says "The Times." was not that Americans should fight for us. No one here expected that. But they should do our thinking for us.

Lord Lothian, speaking personally, had referred to the various states in the U.S.A. and, to the possibility of a Federation of European States.
The same idea, says "The Times," is working in many minds and coun. tries to-day, but it must be remem bered that, whatever form a clvif. Ized order of world society may take, our first war aim is to ensure, by the destruction of Hitlerism, condi. tions of freedom and justice in which it can be planned.
