Churchill Queries

Too Far

On Egypt: "Some of us think the Government have gone fra far." (He probably meant with relation to the abandonment of the naval base at Alexandria).

On his Fulton, Missouri speech fast spring: "It was met with mixed reactions." Then, cutting through the un- testrained laughter, he added that events since then had more thin sustained his contentions.

Russia

"I have not today treated these issues as controversial and as matters for a quarrel be- tween the Government and the Opposition. The Government have the power and responsibi lity and they also have the knowledge. I am, however, forced-to examine the question whether the situation has de teriorated in the year that has passed."--Reuter.

In general, he voiced complete Hitler Youth

policy.

It seemed, then, that he had finished; he deliberately en- couraged the impression. With studied underemphasis then, Mr. Churchill referred to a re- mark made by Mr. Attlee, who had said that the presence, of large armed forces in Europe might constitute a danger to peace.

Taut House

Berlin, Oct. 23. The United States authorities in Germany today took measures to tighten their control of Ger- man youth organisations and movementa of young people in the United States zone after yes. terday's dissolution of n. 3,000 strong youth movement in Wuert- temberg.

The Swabian movement was dissolved after investigations had shown that it had repeatedly dis- regarded Military Government orders forbidding political acti vities.

Mr. Churchill said he wanted to ask the Government a ques- tion. Instead of asking it, he told the House that in travel-

London, Oct. 24. Mr. Churchill, referring to the question of the strength of the armed forces, recalled that in October last year, he had pressed for more rapid demo- bilisation and that he had given minimum figures to which in his judgment a reduction in numbers should be made. These were: Royal Navy 150,000; Army 1,000,000; Royal Air Force 400,000—a total of 1,550,- 000 men.
