Canada At War 25 Years Ago Monday, January 8, 1940 EDITORIAL The new head of the war department in. the British government, replacing Leslie Hore-Belisha, is Oliver Stan- lev, formerly President of the Board of Trade and pre-wai First Lord of the Admiralty. He is at a disadvantage ir being a son of the ,arl of Derby but, in spite of that, m had been considered by those in the know as one of the likely men to succeed Neville Chamberlain as Prime Min-ester. Should He make a success of this job he may stei into the leadership. Mr. Stanley is a Conservative in politics whereas h? predecessor was a Liberal. He has one of the essentials of political life which is perfect selfconfidence and determination to go ahead if he thinks he is right. He is a gooc speaker, LESLIE HORE-BELISHA " The man who last week retired from the position o' War Minister in, the British cabinet was a Jew, 54 years o; age, a Liberal in politics, small in stature but withal a bit man with a very bright mind.

Prior to entering the War Office Hore-Belisha wai minister of transport and he brought importance to r previously unimportant position. He revitalized it. Sorm day he will make a come-back, possibly to help in solving the greater problems of peace after the war is over.
