Dussault Sr.; ex-sheriff ' of Jef ferson county, was discharged from the Pioneer Memorial hos pital ., Friday, and now conval escing at his home -at Madras. Dussault while here submitted to major surgery. The , British - government, the past nine months has given the Impression of being completely worn out, without any new ideas or inspiration. They Have now put inlo - practice all their ' welfare schemes . and the nationalization of major industries, and the re sults have been, nothing to get ex cited over one way or. the other. The labor party In Its years be fore -gaining power believed In tensely that Britain needed only its program in order to see great strides In the standard of living and , happiness of everyone. In stead it has found the world full of many problems, at home and abroad, and none of Its, solutions particularly helpful. uor tne most part, alter mucn delay', the government has faced up to all these problems, and un dertaken Intelligent measures But they have done so, reluctant ly, without any . confidence or spirit.." - Differences Not Marked Jur.t now It Is difficult to sav exactly what the differences in policy between taoor and conserv atives are. Both accept the free health .-service and most nation alization schemes, but even labor does not talk much of furthei nationalization. On foreign policy tne aiuerenees are mostly on de tails. ,: ., . Certainly a change In govern ment would not see any less crit icism ol America by Britain. II might be of a different sort, but the conservatives have a mind of their own, and would put forth the British view with a great deal more spirit than labor does, The economic situation In Brit ain, and the Russian throat, lenvc neither party with much room, to strike out: along new lines. It looks like Britain will muddle along on hqr. present course for quite, a while, no matter which party Is In power. ; Bulletin Classifieds bring results What's Your Trouble?
