AUSTRALIAN POLITICAL PARTIES WINNING OF THE WAR "Despite the fact that, we .halve had electionsi that "have not'given a "clearcut result, it should be remembered that the political parties have always been united in regard to Australia's war effort," said Mr C. E. Critchley, Australian Trade Commissioner, when addressing members of the Dunedin Rotary Club yesterday. Mr Critchley said he believed that.because of. that union on essentials, the Government now in power would be able to carry on without disturbance. "The goal of all the political parties is the same—to win the war," Mr Critchley said, " and the differences are merely on the methods to be used. The elections really meant that there were some side issues not connected with the war which influenced the electors in their votes. Now we have a Government carrying on, and I think it Will undoubtedly carry on without disturbance, because the only real question at issue is th« war, and the Opposition is pledged to support the Government on that"
