Mr. Churchill listened and nod- ded as Mr. Bevln's review went on and the Foreign Secretary more and more began to address 111s own party rather than the opposition. Sometimes he prac- tically turned his back on the Conservatives and faced the Labor men and women who were clearly walling to be convinced. Mr. Bevin was able to hold them until he mentioned Greece. Then a few began to repeat the famil- iar grumble that Britain should get out of that cormvtry. The whole business of Greece has caused enabarrassmmt to the Labor Party. Whatever the jus- tlce of the case. Labor members found it hard to make clear to some meetings why British troops should be involved in fights with Greek leftists. how the Greek King came to be restored. and supervision of the Greek election was necessary. Most Labor members loyslly accepted that intervention was the only action possible in the circumstances, but a few think Britain should have got out of Greece long ago.

In ntost provinces many firms report that better than 80 per cent of their employees have been buying bonds. Headquarters’ examination of ll/"lse purchases during the first l0 days shows that surprisingly few citizens are buying the $50 denomination.
