CHURCHILL'S SPEECH CRITICISED
COMMENT FROM RUSSIA GOVERNMENT NOT INFORMED London, Sept. 22. The Foreign Office has issued a statement saying that the Government was not informed or consulted about Mr Churchill's speech at Zurich advocating "a kind of United States in Europe." _ Mr Churchill, with his wife and daughters, arrived in London by air yesterday. The Moscow radio said the proposals made by Mr Churchill illustrated the tendency in world politics for the formation of hegemogy blocs and coalitions against Russia. Such an alliance would be the basis for new "wars. Mr Wallace's speech served to shew the discontent many Americans felt with policy toward Russia. It was an appeal for the return of the Allies to the joint policy of the war years. Alluding to Mr Churchill as an "undoubtedly important hut rather unstable person;" Berlin's Russiancontrolled newspaper Night Express said his proposed United States in Europe is_.just another attempt at bloc-building and the strengthening of his front for a third war. The paper added -that close, relationship between Germany and France was desirable but could be achieved within the framework of the United Nations.
