Canada needs and must have every spoonful
of fat drippings, every piece of scrap fat and
every bone from every kitchen in Canada.
Fats make glycerine and glycerine makes high
explosives. Bones produce fat. Also glue for
war industry.
Don't throw away a single drop of used fat—
bacon grease, meat drippings, frying fats—
every kind you use. They are urgently needed
to win this war.
Strain all drippings through an ordinary strainer
into a clean wide-mouthed can. Save your
scrap fat (cooked or uncooked) and all types of
bones—cooked, uncooked or dry.
When you have collected a pound or more of
fat dripping, take it to your meat dealer who
will pay you the established price for the drip-
ping and the scrap fat. Or you can dispose of
them through any Municipal or Salvage
Committee peUeglion system IN EFFECT
to your oot+tnnittt_ig,
Bea intra tion Master right is your own
kitchen. For instance, there is' enough ex-
plosive power hidden in tea pounds of fat to fire

way, keep working for Victory for the duration

Conferences With
Cabinet Ministers
By Walter R. Legge
As mentioned in an earlier article,
in addition to the conference which
we had with Britain's Prime min-
ister,
inister, we had informal meetings with
a nemher of the Cabinet Ministers.
Naturally as editors we were
particularly interested in meeting
the Minister of Information, the
Hon. Brendan Bracken. Before ills
appoiriment to this post in July,
1941, Mr. Bracken was Pa"liament-
ary Secretary to Prime Minister
Churchill. He had had practical
publishing experience, having been
editor of "The Banker," chairman of
the Financial News", and managing
director of "The Economist".
1 Mr. Bracken is the fourth • man to
have held the Ministry' of lemma-
, tion post ,since the beginning of the
war.
Omr conference with him was an
implying one. He told us something
about what England is doing, "The
people of England," he said, ',aro
working harder than any other
People have in any war. A series • of
i nothing but misfortunes has not.
' destroyed our senses. The English
l people are all out in their war effort,
but they will still do more. What-
ever happens, the English will never
r•
surrender, We will see this thing
through to the absolute end.
,;Some people think that after the
war, England will give up her
Empire ,and Tenperialism. This is
entirely wrong. We will not sell
our heritage for a mess of postage.
We have •an immense contribution
to pey to prosterity, and no govern.
anent will ever agree to the die
memlberauent .of the British Empire,
"The British lion is not a mangy
dying animal, nor will be be oonfined
in air iron cage. Only in the years
t<o collie will the effort o4 England
be really understood."
Saab was part of the message that
the Hon. Brendan Bracken had for
ars,
We found the Ministry of Informs-
, tion most oo-operative during; one•
stay fn England. The mesas issued
by that dePartmeiit were go effeettve
that the others whin. had been
issued to tats were almost seiner-
Miotie.
We Met the Hon. Ernest Bevan,
Mdni5ter of Labour, In his ofdee and
hada talk with Alm, Mr, Bevan Waa

MRS. MARIETTE BURROWS found out the

sleepless nights—made her always tired and

Union., and, in 1940, became Minister
of Labour and National Service..
Some people think that he may
some day be Prince Minister.
,His is one of the most important
tasks today, for Britain is manning
the world's greatest navy, Inaiutain-
ing armies in nanny parts of the
world, supplying a .steady stream
of youths for the R.A.F., keeping un
hone defences, fire fighting and
A.R.P. services, and steadily in-
creasing production of war supplies.
No wonder Haat he told us there
was no .such thing as a saturation
point in manpower.
He has made a wonderful success
of his taste, but it must be remem-
bered that this result could not
have been attained without the
enthusiastic co-operation of the
entire population,
In• answer to our question he said
Haat there is very little v-ilful
absenteeisma. But when we asked
him about labour troubles in certain
plaices, he impatiently replied that
the newspapers had to make news,
and "virtue has no news value,"
He thinks that the war is teaching
the United Kingdom a great deal
about transportation which will
have an effect after the war is over
We had an interesting confer=
ence with the Hon: L, S. Amery;
who is !Secretary for India and
Burmaa. Ha told us a great deal
about the troublesome elements in
India: Moat of us went away with
a new eonoeption of the India
problem. We also began to realize
how little most people know about it,
Mr. Amery has travelled in most
parts of the world, and as we left,
he said, "1 wish the war \veva over
so that I could pay another visit
to Canada."
The last conference we had was
with Sir R. Stafford Cripps, w110 is
probably better known to Canadians
than any other minister except the
Prime Minister. He has been a very
successful legal counsellor, and is
now Lord Privy Seal.
•
He has a very attractive perscn-
abity, a. keen mind, and our whole
impression of hien was entirely
favoura:bio. It was an intensely
interesting conference, for he spoke
of Russia anti his mission to that
country, and about India. and the
failure or his mission there.
Sir Stafford Cripps is a deeply
religious man. A few clays before
we met ]aim he had given an address
in Bristol which aroused wide dis-
mission, IIe declared that he felt
the Clnu'ch had failed to give the
leadership expected of it, and that
it must be reawakened to a realiza-
tion of its responsibilities. IIe thinks
that the disestablishment of the
Church of England is not far off,
Next to the conference with Prime
Minieter Churchill, , this was the
most interesting meeting we back,
It gave ins Hauch food for thought,
Our 'conferences with Lard
Woolton, Minister ,of Food, and the
Hon. Heaabert Morrison, Minister of
Home Security, have been described
ha previous ,articles, Lord 'Woolton,
wlaos.o name before he became a
peer was Frederick James Marquis,

perience to his task, He was chair•
