British Ministers' "service for peace
London, October 16.
#
If the statesman was right who said it was better for politicians' to get indigestion listening to each other than for soldiers to get shot, then the Cabinet has rendered true servico for peace,
Ten years of governing during and after the war has eaten into the intestinal equilibrium of many British politicians, notably the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, Sir Stafford Cripps, and the Foreign Secretary, Ernest Bevin. Sir Stafford Cripps has would be a scramble within the Foreign suffered for many years from Labour Party if the nervous indigestion,
Office became vacant which forced him to give up, meat, tobacco and, for long stretches, work. He is now back at the Zurich sanatorium where he spent three months, last year. Although he put in a brief ap- pearance at the special session of Parliament In September, he is likely to miss the regular sitting in October.
Mr. Bovin's health has steadily deteriorated for several years, and this spring saw him in and out of the hospital repeatedly with heart trouble and haemorr- hoids. Although Mr. Bevin has now resumed control of Foreign Affairs, appointments with his doctor still take precedence over official business.
Both Sir Stafford Cripps and Mr. Bevin are described by col- leagues as men 'who wear their burdens with them at night, and probably lose sleep over the next day's decisions.

Sir Hartley Shawcross, 'At- torney-General, is a favourite in the betting. But choosing Mr. Bevin's successor is one job which Mr. Attlee probably wants. to postpone as long as possible.— United Press,
Soviet peace partisans meet
Moscow, October 16. Speakers at the annual nà- tional conference of Soviet peace partisans quoted numer- ous
American sources to the effect that the United States is planning to atomise the Soviet Union. They voiced confidence, however, in the possible co existence of two worlds and eventual triumph of the cause of peace, because the "forces of peace throughout the world are stronger than the war- mongers."
Both of these statesmen have served almost steadily since 1940 -Sir Stafford as Ambassador to Russia and Minister of Aircraft Production, Mr. Bevin as Labour The conference was opened in Minister.
