The Minister committed to the rearmament program, ordered a speed-up in the atomic energy program In England these days mz Churchill can’t win. His job is next political observers believe, of the Churchill program, the people are sure to be sorely tried. They will have to rearm, and speed up atomi: zy research and production, and, at the time, along on fewer luxuries, and a slightly reduced scale living. There was one Conservative group in England which firmly urged Churchil! to « after mak- ing a fighting speech to the nation, in an effort to get larger majority in the House of Commons. This group felt Churchill could have aroused the spirit of the people, in telling of sacrifidés to stabilize the pound and the nation- | al economy, and thus have polled a larger vote.
