...Empire had a man of valor at her helm. In Britain's blackest night since the Spanish Armada lay off her coast in 1588, Prime Minister Winston Churchill not only spoke words of courage but matched them with action. In less than seven days Great Britain's tireless old firebrand changed the character ot Allied warmaking from one of defend & wait to one of dare & strike, although the German onslaught made daring & striking seem more necessity than inspiration. The Prime Minister's week: I-Tuesday he drafted England's No. 2 hustler, Lord Beaverbrook, to head...

...Spiral of Inflation." To irate critics who call the whole ?400 million scheme a "forced loan," Professor Keynes is tireless in his calm, persuasive retorts. He starts by asking everyone to remember how, during World War I, prices rose much faster than wages (as they are again doing in Britain), argues that even though war wages run high, the working class suffers an actual loss in "real wages" from this "spiral of inflation." It is obviously much more to the workers' advantage, he insists, to be left at the end of the war with a packet...
