"I have my dignity and self- respect to consider," said Brown, an optician, It's the merhory of wartime barrack inspection that haunts the councillor, "When I left the services I finished once and for all with this business of 'stand by your beds for inspection.' " He claims that the inspectors --they look into 9,000 houses in the town--peer under beds and turn back blankets. "I consider it degrading," he says. The local housing authority doesn't think so. It has or- dered Brown out of the house by Nov. 9. Brown says he won't go. Meanwhile, a petition is being circulated among all occupants of council houses as a protest against inspections. By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special to The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Two big moves, both intended to mend the fences of the Socialist movement in Britain, are under way. One, within the Labor party itself, is a direct result of the disastrous defeat at the general election of Oct. 8. The other, under the wing of the Trades Union Congress, is the result of the wave of wildcat and unofficial strikes which have become so widespread and fre- quent in recent months, Proposals have been put for- ward to the effect that the Na- now deputy leader of the parlia- mentary Labor party, and James Griffiths, who recently resigned from that post. " Some members of the party, including members of the "sha- dow cabinet" felt that such an examination of the party's struc- ture was overdue, even if the party had won the election. They consider that its defeat has made this kind of comprehensive ex- amination of the constitution and organization of the party more imperative' than ever. Suggestions as to how the party can be re-invigorated have Sccialists In UK. Try To Mend Fences this inquiry is Sir Thomas Wil- liamson, who is chairman of the joint advisory council. It was he who stated at Blackpool that such an inquiry is being held, He is known as one of the most strict disciplinarians in the trade union movement, and is the leader of the General and Municipal Work- ers Union. His union recently suspended 112 of its members for taking part in an unofficial strike, ; It is intimated that 17 other TUC leaders, representing work. ers in all the key industries of the country, will be on the com- mittee, DAMAGE TO MOVEMENT This inquiry is inspired by the knowledge that the activities of shop stewards in formenting un- official and wildcat strikes in recent months have done incal- culable harm to the trade union movement, and are even believed to. have been a factor in the Labor defeat at the polls. The wiser heads in the movement are firmly of the belief that discipline to prevent such stop. pages must come from within . the movement, and not be im posed by government action. In- deed, the fear that the govern ment might contemplate legisla- tional Executive of the Labor Party should appoint a commis- sion to examine the constitution of the party as a whole. This would not be in the nature of an election post-mortem. It would go back much further than that --to the time when the present | constitution was drawn up 40 |years ago. But its purpose' will be to find out in which direction the Labor party organization should move if it is to recoup its jfortunes, |ATTLEE MAY LEAD Several names have been men- tioned as possible chairmen for this commission, including that |of Earl Attlee, former leader of quiry was forecast at the annual the party and Prime Minister. conference of the TUC held in|tion to deal with outlaw strikes |Others who have been suggested Blackpool in early September. |is one of the factors which has to head it are Aneurin Bevan,| The most likely chairman for|motivated the TUC inquiry. been pouring into Transport House since the election, and many of these will form a frame- work for consideration by the commission when it is estab- lished, TUC INQUIRY The other move which is dir- ected at irresponsible trade un- ionists, comes from the General Council of the Trades Union Congress.

FLING FOR LANDLORDS By STEWART MacLEOD Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON (CP) -- For sheer frustration nothing can touch flat- hunting in London. Only those who can afford more than £12 a week, or those des- titute enough to get government assistance, escape the experience. The others, excepting the inevit- able lucky few, must sweat it out. Anyone who left London more than three years ago will say this is bunk and that nice furnished flats can be had for £6. But that was in the days of rent control-- when landlords felt sorrv for themselves. They were perse- cuted, they said. Nowadays landlords are having a real fling. There are notable exceptions, but generally it is difficult to find a comfortable three-room flat for less than £9. The exceptions are usually on the city's outskirts. MORE FOR HEAT If you want central heating thrown in--a somewhat rare lux- ury--prices start a few pounds higher and ascend to ridiculous fiprivate hands. heights. In plush Mayfair, elegant| Knightsbridge, or pleasant St. John's Wood, the starting price is| around £15. They work up to £50 la week. Canada House, which main- tains a file of available flats for Canadians, has few under £11 a week. There are several for £80 and one at £100. "No extras," boasts this ad. What makes flat-hunting really frustrating is the newspaper ad- vertisements that reel off an end- less list at bargain prices. But they seldom turn out that way. You might travel 10 miles to in- vestigate a £7 flat and find the price doesn't include certain taxes. Or another might be let only if you buy "furnishings and fittings"--perhaps ¢ crippled cur- tain rod -- at, say, £500. Then there is the business of buying a lease for a few hundred pounds. It seems that 75 per cent of the ads have a gimmick attached. Normally, Britons get prefer- ence over outsiders. A Canadian couple who recently spent a month in the hunt visited about 30 real estate agents--they belong to an association which prevents them from charging ten- Rents In London Annoy Flat-Seekers specting them. The agents said virtually all their flat business involves over- seas people. One said: "we haven't had a British couple in here for months--they can't af- ford this type of rent." Most young British couples, who have no financial backing, live with their parents until they can afford the down payment on a house. There are flats, subsidized by the London County Council, avail- able at about £2 a week provid- ing vou wait. It takes years. There -is no consistency in Lon- don rents--except that they are too high. A Canadian couple in- spected a shabby £12 a week flat in Shepherd's Bush -- an unat- tractive area -- and found the bathtub in the kitchen and the toilet curtained off in the hall. The following week a centrally- heated Mayfair penthouse was let for £11..1t had everything. The average London flat is usually far below its Canadian counterpart in lay-out, decora- tion, and, above all, heating. Even when central heating is pro- vided, it is usually on only be- ants, or renting flats without in- tween October and April, LONDON (Reuters) -- Field Marshal Viscount Alanbrooke, Britain's chief military planner in the Second World War, Tues- day night described the late Gen. George C. Marshall as '"'an abso- lute gentleman." Alanbrooke, the second volume of whose controversial war diaries has just been published, was speaking on a BBC televi- sion program. Questioned by his wartime deputy, Gen. Sir Archibald Nye, and historian Norman Gibbs, he said: "Gen. Marshall was one of the very great men that the war produced. He was an absolute gentleman, as straight as a die." Of Gen. Douglas MacArthur, Alanbrooke said: "I put him quite on the highest pedestal of all the generals of the war." He spoke of MacArthur's "brilliant leap - frogging strategy' which took him from New Guinea to Okinawa, isolating many Japan- ese forces. President Eisenhower, criti- Late General Marshall 'Absolute Gentleman' cized in the diaries as having "absolutely no strategie outlook' and playing golf at Rheims, France, during a critical phase of the European campaign, was not mentioned. Earlier Tuesday, Field Mar- shal Viscount Montgomery, com- menting on the Alanbrooke diaries, referred to Eisenhower's own Crusade in Europe in which he said Eisenhower made some ungenerous remarks about Alan- brooke and described some of Montgomery's suggestions for ending the war quickly as "fan- tastic." "The criticism about me made no difference to my admiration and affection for that great man," Montgomery said. "He is the incarnation of selflessness and sincerity and I would do any- thing for him. "'Alanbrooke . also is selfless and sincere and without any thought of personal aggrandize- ment. I regard Alanbrooke as the best soldier produced by any na- tion during Hitler's war." PUGWASH, N.S.
