English Election Will Determine Postwar Cabinet
A general election in England is to be held early in July. The issue at stake is really the question of what kind of a peacetime government the English people want.
Predictions are already being made on the outcome of the election. Most of them seem to be to the effect that the Conservative party still has the edge on the Labor and Liberal parties. There is no doubt that the short time the latter parties will have for organizing may affect the election. However, these parties are stronger in England than they ever have been.
The parties have been working together for some time in the wartime coalition cabinet. Yet a few days after the cabinet was reshuffled, a trivial discussion went on in the House of Commons, in which the split was strictly along the old party lines.
We wonder whether Churchill is the kind of man to hold the peace-time premiership. His record in prosecuting the war has been excellent. On the other hand, his attitude up to the present time on the problems of peace must be considered. He and Stalin do not seem able to trust each other. With his conservative background, Churchill seems to favor the continuance of the long-standing British economic system of imperialism. The fact the system exists may be a factor definitely inimical to a permanent peace.
Then, of course, no one knows just exactly what type of government the Liberals and Laborites would give Britain.
Let us hope that the British people make their choice on the basis of its effect on the whole world and on the keeping of peace.—N.W.

O. J. Kaufman, Battenfeld, and Ernie Johnson. Miller, really fell for each other while whirling to the music at Miller's spring formal Saturday night. Ernie got quite a kick out of it, but Kaufman said he wasn't hurt.
The blonde part of the red convertible, Joyce Morgan and Wanda Deane, evidently preferred swimming in water to swimming in season. That's what they told the game warden at Tongy State Lake last weekend.
