Policies relating to the Far East and German rearmament are emphasized. The editorial implies that large and section of public opinion, especially irt.Bri- tain find France, favors the adoption by their governments of a policy of neutrality between Amer a and Russia.

Well, my observation is that this isn't a true bill, but it comes close enough to Mackenzie the truth to make an elegant piece THE LEWIS SHOPPE Snow Pants $5.95 Sizes 10 to 20 Brown and Navy The Lewis Shoppe for Fashion at Moderate Prices of Red propaganda. That's what the democracies lay themselves open to by arguing nil their problems in more power to that system of ironing out differences. We, the people, have a right to know what goes oai in the governmental mind. It's true there are differences of opinion between the United States and Britain over 'the Far Eastern policy, but this isn't strange in view of the fact that it represents tine of the most difficult problems in years. It has many ramifications, but we may sum up the position like this: Viewpoints Differ British observers say America is more convinced of the approach of war with the Soviets than is England.

Britons don't believe war is imminent but they are afraid the United States will precipitate it by becoming involved with China in the Far East, Britain, say these observers, doesn't think Uncle Sam is looking for war with China, but they are afraid events are taking charge and that such a conflict might develop through Russia pushing China into it. Britain therefore is anxious to see the Korean war wound up as quickly as possible. And so is the United States. There is another difference of viewpoint between Washington and London regarding their attitude towards Communist China. Britain has recognized the Peiping regime, whereas America has held aloof is a position which could cause complications if London should extend its relations with the Chinese Reds.

Naturally the U. S. doesn't want to see hat happen. As for German rearmament, are differences and there is considerable opposition among the ermans themselves to rearma- nent. However, the divergencies among the Allies rest largely in questions of what safeguards would be necessary to ensure that Germany never again shall become an aggressor.

There is no reason to suppose that these differences won't be ironed out in due course. CANVASSERS DECLINE TO CERTIFY WILLIAMS Lansing, Nov. 5 Michigan's state board of canvassers has invited a court test over the controversial question of who will be governor after Jan. a recount of ballots isn't completed by then. The board refused yesterday to certify that Democratic Gov.

G. Mennen Williams was reelected in the error-plagued Nov. 7 election. The official canvass showed Williams defeated Republican candidate Harry F. Kelly by just votes of nearly two million votes cast.

The all-Republican board's refusal to certify Williams' election I tosses the question to the supreme court. I Because of key appointments at I stake, both parties are anxious to control the gubernatorial post after Jan. 1 if the recount is not finished by then. The Democrats argue that Williams should retain his post until the issue is settled and the Republicans say Republican elect William C. Vandenberg should become acting governor.
