London, May 5.
Need for mastery in the air and for establishment of a smaller War Cabinet is stressed by Mr, James L. Garvin in the "Observer," according to a special commentary issued here today.
"We require, above all, two things: a supreme effort for absolute mastery in the air; and a smaller War Cabinet, composed of few men free from departmental routine, who will give their whole minds to a higher direction of the war. It is certain that until we have both these things, our cause will not make any head-
Regarding the frst point, Mr. Garvin says, the Government ought, from the outset of the war, to have taken measures on a larger scale, and driven them forward with the dynamic vigour Mr. Lloyd George applied 25 years ago to the Ministry of Munitions.
"The Allied cause," he asserts, "demands nothing less than an air supremacy of two to one against Germany, in view of other contingencies'
Referring to the War Cabinet, Mr. Garvin declares it is no movement for personal reasons against Mr. Neville Chamberlain as Prime Minister, but it is incumbent on him to provide an invigorated Government and a more efficient system of war thinking, war planning and war waging that the nation demands and the Allies' cause urgently claims, Returning to the same subject in another column, Mr. Gervin stresses: "We now need a National Government in the fullest sense of the word, with the adhesion of Labour, Sir Archibald Sinclair's Liberals and Mr, Lloyd George."—Reuter.
