would in my opinion enlist greater national support to our war effort i do not wish to mislead any one in this regard and it is only falr that i should clearly state that i do not believe that hon dr manlon and his present so called national set up could be a national government in any true sense of the word his plan as outlined in the prevt would appear to be the formation of a government similar to the union government of the last war the memory of the failures of that government and the memory or the excess profits which it permitted and the millionaires which it created is too fresh in the
