War Cabinet or Imperial Conference
[Received Monday, 9.20 p.m. RUGBY, Juno 15. The subject of the possibility of a meeting of Dominion Prime Ministers in London continues to interest public opinion here. Recalling Mr. Churchill’s statement in the Commons last week that he would welcome such a meeting, : the newspaper Sunday Times states: ,“ Nevertheless, the principle is sound, and as the ordeal of war intensifies the case for applying it will grow steadily more pressing. | “Broadly, it can be applied in one of two ways—an Imperial Cabinet which would function continuously, or an Imperial Conference which would meet from time to time. The first would be preferable and it is difficult to see the impossibility of the second. The vast development of air travel since the last war should render it very much easier to hold such a conference than then.”
