Winston Churchill, who has followed the family policy of Independence, has sounded a clarion call for support of .the League of Nations and for resistance to the German .expansion policy. He is.appealing to people of all political faiths m Britain to take a stand with him. He .strongly urges tne speeding up 01 rearmaments and the extension of the treaty with France to take in a number of other countries including Jugo-Slavia, Rumania, Hungary and Czecho-Slo.vakia. Mr. Churchill rather likes to play. a lone hand in poli-tics but, in a time of stress, he may easily .collaborate with all who agree with the policy he is advocating. The by-election in -Buckinghamshire Thursday which gave the government a large majority may tend to check the aspir- CITY MANACER PLAN There are now 475 cities in United States, Canada, Puerto Rica and Ireland that have city managers, according to statistics compiled in Chicago. Of the 93 largest American cities eighteen per cent have adopted the plan. The latest city to fall in line is Verdun in Quebec province and Chicago is seriously .considering placing its affairs under a manager. The plan started thirty years ago and has grown of nnl lir nt.i.

In the first' fplacejit is not an Empire in the historic sense and neither! is it a commonwealth of nations, although that term comesi nearer the mark. However, the word Empire is much .easier .to say than commonwealth ,of nations so most people use it and know in a general way what it means. I In the first place the Empire means the United King-; Klom of Great Britain and Ireland which provides the lighting sea force.and is planning the main part of the.air : defense force. Then there ,are the other self-governing ; nations such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand and! South Africa. In addition, there is the great Indian Em-j pire with various governments all owing allegiance to the,t .same ruler as ourselves. Further there are numerous! colonies such as Newfoundland, West Indies, British Guiana, :Hong Kong, Singapore, Kenya, Aden and Ceylon. Finally there are , the countries an.d colonies such as Palestine and East Africa which were ,placed under the mandate of Britain following the war. It can be seen that, with such a variety of interests, government of the British Empire is no easy task. While nominally much of it is self-governing the whole has to be co-ordinated and this co-ordination takes place from London.
