FULTON,
Missouri
(CP)
Former
Prime
.Minister
Winston
Church
of
Great
Britain
called
today
for
a
virtual
Anglo-American
military
alliance
with
a
blunt
warning
against
what
he
termed
Russia's
desire
for
"indefinite
expansion"
of
its
"power
and
doctrines."
3Ir.
Churchill
asserted
that
"shadow
has
fallen
upon
scenes
so
lately
lighted
by
Allied
victory.
Nobody
knows
what
Soviet
Russia
and
its
communist
international
organization
intends
to
do
in
the
immediate
future
or
what
are
the
limits,
if
any,
to
their
expansive
and
proselyting
tendencies."
Britain's
wartime
leader,
in
cn
address
prepared
for
delivery
at
Westminster
College,
gravely
declared
that
the
prevention
of
another
war
"can
only
le
achieved
by
reaching
now,
in
15)
10,
a
good
understanding
on
all
points
with
Russia
under
general
authority
of
the
United
Nations
Organization."
While
he
said
he
docs
not
believe
Russia
wants
war,
Mr.
Churchill
attributed
to
the
Russians
a
"desire
for
"fruits
of
war
and
indefinite
expansion
of
their
power
and
doctrines."
He
cautioned
against
releasing,
the
secret
of
the
atomic
bomb
at
this
time.
Mr.
Churchill
emphasized
that
he.
spoke
"only
for
myself"
and
had
no
official
mission.
Great
RIessing
Is
Destruction
From
the
gleaming
wings
of
science,
which
might
have
brought
immeasurable
blessing
to
mankind,
might
be
precipitated
a
return
to
the
dark
age
the
stone
age.
"The
time
is
short.
There
is
no
time
for
wailing,"
Mr.
Churchill
asserted.
"Now
war
can
find
any
nation
between
dusk
and
dawn,"
he
asserted.
Mr.
Churchill
charged
Russian-dominated
Poland
with
enormous
and
wrongful
inroads
in
Germany.
Totalitarian
control
was
being
imposed
behind
an
iron
curtain
which
stretched
across
Europe
from
Stettin
on
the
Raltic
to
Trieste
on
the
Adriatic.
The
outlook
was
also
anxious
in
the
Far
East,
particularly
in
Manchuria,
the
wartime
premier
asserted.
,
The
world
needed
a
new
unity
in
Europe.
He
had
not
lost
hope
in
the
dark
days,
said
Mr.
Churchill.
Neither
had
he
lost
hope
now.
"Rut
I
do
not
see
or
feel
the
same
confidence
or
the
same
hope
today
that
1
had
last
year
that
wars
are
over."
However,
he
still
did
not
feel
that
war
was
inevitable.
"The
future
is
in
our
own
hands."
He
urged
the
establishment
of
freedom
and
democracy
as
rapidly
as
possible
in
all
countries.
He
warned
against
a
policy
of
appeasement.
The
Russians
had
admiration
for
strength
and
not
for
weakness,
he
felt.
"If
western
democracy
stands
together,
their
influence
will
be
immense,"
he
asserted.
He
recalled
how
he
had
cried
aloud
against
appeasement
but
no
one
had
listened.
There
never
had
been
a
war
in
history
that
could
have
been
more
easily
prevented
by
timely
action
than
the
last.
"We
must
not
let
that
happen
again."
"Let
no
man
underrate
the
abiding
power
of
the
British
Empire
and
Commonwealth."
Mr.
Churchill's
subject
was
"The
Sinews
of
Peace."

last

at
a
banquet
tendered
In
honor
of
the

by
the
Native
Sisterhood
of
British
Columbia.
"We
have
an
organization
now
that
will
take
care
of
all
our
problems,"
declared
President
William
Scow.
"Its
objective
Is
to
take
care
of
the
people
as
a
whole
but
we
must
emphasize
and
practice
the
brotherhood
of
mankind."

outlined
the
history
of
the
organization
which

been
conceived
by'
a
few

"you

law.
"The
government
now
proposes
to
revise
the
Indian
Act
and
create
a
new
charter
for
the
Indians
of
Canada.
Every

should
use
his

In
