NO WAR SCARE
9 9 1 »— Defence Programme in Great Britain CANON'S IMPRESSIONS While undoubtedly there was' tremendous activity in all phases of defence Canon C. Mortimer Jones informed members of the Hastings Eotary Club yesterday that during his severai inonths ' visit to the Old Country he did not hear anyone talk of war and did aot agree that there was a "warecare" at Home. "All the defence programme and movements are taken for granted," he said. "The Government is fully alive to the situation but no one really knows, apart frohi ^the high Government officials, what is being done. "Personally my impression is that there is less possibility of war to-day than was the case a year, or two years ago, ' ' he said. * ' That is my impression. I 've come back with just the opposite impression to a fellow-Rotarian of another town and I am sure l fee? much more comfortable about it."
