Conservative Leader Outlines Party Policy

oi

LONDON. Jun. rep, Winston Churchill declared Sal,- ilrday night that Socialism is out, of tune with the times and is the

"u'edkest” defense against Coni- munisfn." In his first 195D campaign

speech, broadcast from his home st Wasterham, Kent, the 75-year- old Conservative Party leader urg- 9d British voters in the Feb. 23 general election to spurn the La- bor Party's bid for a return to power after almost five years in office.

The speech was transmitted by ihe BBC and rebroadcast in North America and elsewhere.

Churchill declared the "socialist policy of equalizing misery and or- ganizing scarcity" might bring re- sults the like oi "which "we have never yet suffered or even imagin- sd.

Labor Takes lssuo

A Labor speaker today look is- sue with the contention of the wartime Prime Minister that "so- cialism means rogimentation, equal- ization in misery."

Sir Hartley Shuwcross, Attorney- Genersi, in an address at Bolton,

said:

“We (the Labor Party) bring freedom and culture, the oppor- tunity to rise above the degrading conditions of the pest. 110i; ‘B01151- ity in misery’ but what has so long been denied - equality in oppor- trinity."

Sir William Lawther, of the National Union of Workers, told miners at field:

He described polit- ics as "the extension into pract- ical every-day life of our Christ- ian responsibility for the welfare of our neighbors."

Churchill said the issue "is whe- iiher we should take another plunge into socialist iegimcntation" or regain the “freedom. initiative Bu“ opportunity" that once Won T0! Britain "glorious ascendancy."

He recalled that New Zeaiand and Australia, two of the Domin. ions, "have recently shaken them. selves free" after a prolonged trial of socialist governments.

He defined socialism as a “mis- taken political philosophy and largely obsolete mode of thought“ which believes in an “ail-powerful state which owns everything, which Plans everythins. which distributes everything."

Conservative Program

Churchill then advanced a gen- eral progzram to restore "a greater measure of freedom of choice and action to our people and of pro- ductive fertility and variety io-our industry."

Churchill's proposals:

l. "libtabliishment and maln- tenance of a basic standard of life and labor below which a. man or woman, however old or weak, shall not be allowed to fall."

2. "To set the nation free as quickly as possible from the controls and rBstrictions which flow beset our daily life."

3. "A stable value for money."

4. “Grow more food, at homo . .. make long-term mange- ments inside the Empire for mutual trade . . ."

6. "Prevention of mass unem- ployment."

6. More housing. “Before tho war under Conservative Gov- ernment we were building, by the normal process of supply and demand, 1.000 houses s day. With all this need, and the same labor force, we are build- ing only half as much noiw

Measles Epidemic In.

North Takes

EDMONTON, Jun. 22--(CP) —-A plane carrying a doctor and three nurses left today with emergency aid to stem a measles epidemic Eskimo und Indian population of the MucKenzie River delta. The epidemic has claimed seven lives.

The plane took off at 4 p.m. AST for Aklavik, N.W.'l‘., with Dr. Paul Harvey of the Indian Affairs De- partment and Nursing Sister Rita Murphy, Ruth Fadum and Dorothy Chapman aboard, Their emergency medical supplies included measles serum.

The epidemic has been sweeping through the native population since last December. Because of the nomad habits of the Eskimos and Indians it has spread over a wide area and no estimate of how

many are involved can be made.

Seven Lives

Dr. W, L. Falconer, superinten-

dent of the Charles Camsell In- dian Hospllal here, said an emer- gency hospital has been set up by the department's medical officer at Aklavik, Dr. K, A. Wurd, but

it is crowded with 40 measles C8895. Two other hospitals, One an

Anglican and the other a Roman Catholic mission, also are jammed, mostly with tuberculosis patients. The measles serum probably will be used on these cases because the disease aggravates tuberculosis.

The medical team from Edmon- ton likely will reach Aklavik t0- rnorrow, Dr. Falconer said.

The plane will remain in the Aklavik area and will be used to drop food supplies to villages, al- lowing the Indians and Eskimos to remain in camp without run- ning short of food.

New Political‘ Party Formed In Germany

By RICHARD UREGAN

KASSEL, Germany, Jan. 22 - (AP) -- A new party flaunting the black, white and red flag of the Kaiser's Reich has been formed in Western Germany by the merger of two right-wing groups.

Former German army officers attended the organization meeting here Saturday night at which about 250 functionaries of the new party sang "Deutschland Ueber Alles" (Germany over all), the national anthem which German soldiers sang in two world wars.

The n'ew party was formed dry-a

These two parties received 500,000 votes in the general elections last yea!‘ and elected five representatives in the 402-man West German parlia- ment.

The new party ls headed by Frank Richter, former lender of the National Democrats, and by Dr. Henrich Leuchtgens, an elderly banker. who was leader of the German Right Party. Both are members of the Bonn Parliament.

In a half-hour speech Richter:

1. Criticized Russia for "bar- barous" treatment of German prisoners of; war. but invited German Communists to join an "all-German movement to lib- erate Germany!’

2, said "no price is too high ‘in pay for German freedom" - which some listeners interpret- ed as including co-operation with Communists.

3_ Asserted German soldiers should refuse to fight for the "Rhine defence line" (Western Europe) or to figiht for "oth- ers."
