The Progressive-Conservatives cannot be denied political satisfaction they must feel over the result of voting in Grey North yesterday. They have succeeded in placing the government in a very embarrassing position. This emnvp nf much hanniness tary requirements, particularly -to overseas .reinforcements. That was the determining .issue and the unpopularity there of government policy in this re spect caused the voters ot urey worm to deliver their rebuke in spite of and of the war. It was a serious .thing that t,he people of Grey North did in rejecting the Minister of National Defence. They knew that their voice in this matter ers. It was .new f"i ground . for f the , C,C,F. ' i i i i would have been smaller had they not Iiad such a distinguished candidate. We would not go so far as to say that as Grey North has gone so will go the . nation but we cannot but think that PAGE TTCX recognition of his government's many fine achievements in carrying on and keeping the nation united during the most difficult period in the history of the Dominion and the world. What Are Japanese Up To? . . . A few weeks ago after the initial American landings at Lingayen we were predicting that the Japanese might be .expected to put up a i-eal fight before Manila. Now MacArthur and his forces are at Manila after a campaign of just a little under four weeks, meeting a surprising minimum of resistance all along the way. So our predictions on the Philippines were .somewhat out . of line. The outlook now 1 i it T seems to oe mat me Japanese may for .them from the political standpoint soon be driven completely from Luzon, The peopie of Grey North turned the main island, or be destroyed, out in large numbers to deliver to the We do not know what may be ex-government a rebuke on the manner in pected to follow the change in policy which they have handled the manpower of Japanese fighting from fanatical nf this country in relation to the mili- .resistance to the death which use to be their technique but which has been changing not only in the Philippines but in Burma and other areas. The untrustworthy and entirely un scrupulous little yellow men may Ik) conceded to be up to some nefarious disregarding all ,the other .good works fi0rt of strategy so, while we are .all of .the government in the prosecution clad to see the excellent progress which is being made against them in practically all areas today, we should not be overconfident. While we are in a much better po sition to attack and our position is im might be accepted as the voice of Can- proving every day, it is still quite a way ada. It is now to be expected that the Prime Minister will regard the result in Grey North as a challenge and call the general election in answer thereto. As Mr. King said last night in his statement. after the result of the ejection thad be,en .made known, circumstances appear to have arisen which leave no alternative, but to call the election. As was .expected, it was a close fight in Grey North with the Progressive-Conservative and Liberal candidates the only two serious contend kell. ,Ukia.. poolroom proprietor sus pected of selling liquor.
