WAR POLICY
AUSTRALIAN LIAISON SYSTEM WITH BRITAIN CRITICISED BY MR SPENDER. A DEMAND FOR ACTION. (Bv Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) SYDNEY, January 15. Australian representation in the British War Cabinet, and in a council of action in the Pacific was urged today by Mr P. C. Spender, U.A.P., who was Treasurer and later Minister of the Army in the Menzies Government. “If the recommendation by Sir Earle Page (special Australian representative in London), is simply the appointment of liaison officers to advise the British departments of Australia’s attitude to problems, it leaves me cold,” Mr Spender said. “The Australian public is fed up with torrents of words, and it wants action. Australia is vitally interested not only in the Pacific zone, but also in the total operations of the war, and she should be represented by a Minister at all meetings of the British War Cabinet.”
