British
Leaders On Release of
Differ News
(In view of the debate in the House of Commons, last week and Sir John Anderson's announcement on the British Government's news and publicity policy, that following despatch from London by a correspondent of the "Sydney Morning Herald" should prove of interest.) THE long-standing differences between the Ministry of Information and various Government departments regarding the release of news is coming rapidly to a head, and a Cabinet. Committee is at present discussing the problem.

In Public Interest
To Brew Beer
"There is not the slightest evidence that products used to make, beer could be better used in ranking munitions," declared the Food Minis- ter (Lord Woolton) recently in the House of Lords.
"There is also no evidence that excessive drinking is leading to crime and bad health," he added.
It is in the pubile interest to continue producing light beers at the
vel.
1014 Britain brewed 36,000,000 barrels of beer. In the first six months of 1941, production was only 0,700,000 barrels."
