EVERY CAR SHOULD HAVE ONE
Every Canadian motorist who sets out to cut down his consumption
, '.of gasoline and oil by half is being asked to place a 50-50' pledge
sticker on his motor car. Authorities hope that within a very short
time the car which does not carry this sticker will be the exception.

Red Tape
Disappears
The first thing Max Aitken, Baron
Beaverbrook of Beaverbrook, d i d
when he was named .British Minister
"of State without portfolio and put in
charge of reorganizing the Ministry
of Information of -Petals had long neg-
lected: He talked, man 'to man, with
American members of the press.
Newsmen talked too: ,They told
him how many officials gave them the
run-around, how their stories kept
getting balled up in the red tape of
British censorship. They got a great.
deal off their chestse. "
Beaverbrook listened, and the next
day several of the most vehement
newsmen walked around 4n a daze be-
cause all ‘day they had received tele-
phone calls from hitherto unapproach-
able government officials who kept in-
quiring ,'Where have you been keep-
ing yourself, old man?" and wouldn't
they please drop around for tea that
afternoon?
Brings Simplicity To Tasks
Beaverbrook came to the rescue
quickly because, as publisher of two
great London newspapers, the iiaily
Express and Evening '`Standard, he
had himself encountered- the effect of
censorship before hecol>sing a t em-

For days the whole censorship and

Washington should find this Cana-

In all Englund there are few men
who arc as direct in action. Unlike'
most 'l`irrh bigwigs. for example,

,
Beaverbrook keeps no regular hours.
There has never been one office
which could be labelled as Beaver -
brook's. During all those days when
he was. needling the aircraft factories
into giving more Spitfires and Whit-
leys and Hampdens and Blenheims,
the was apt to show up one morning
in the office alloted him in the ram-
bling Ministry of Aircraft Production
building in central London and the
next in the drafting room of a Mid-
lands aircraft factory.
Beginning with that first morning,..
when he took over the reins of air-
craft production, he brought direct-
ness and; simplicity of operation into
.his facet. of the British war effort.
He showed ilp at his new job with
a small army of• carpenters and put
them to work tearing out vast num-
bers of partitions which formed of-
fices for more than fifty umbrella -
carrying executives who had been do-
ing their paper; work since September,
1939, in chaste, unhurried little cubi-
cles - each room complete with a
clean desk, a neat angular secretary
and a pot for brewing the 4 p.m. cup
of tea-
Whefi the men finished giving the
'works to that vast floor of methodical
chaos, the place was a replica of the
city room in Beaverbrook's Londtln
Daily Express.
Other Officials Complain
rite executives didn't like that, of
course, but there was nothing they
could (10 about it except maybe gri'ause
during lunch hour and appear slight
ly bewildered'. when reports 4ndieated
that these and a few other simple
changes had upped their own produe-
t'ion
The heads of two or three other
government departments who were in
competition with Beaverbrook for
priority on materials, and equipment
also didn't like the dictatorial and ag-
gressive methods of the man who
had
at 30 become a multi -millionaire in
private industry.
They complained bitterly, in fact,
and the day Beaverbrook seized, with-
out authority, a whole - shipload of
anti-aircraft guns assigned to another
government chief and whisked them
away in one afternoon to an aircraft
Factory which was badly under -gun-
ned, they exploded. •
')they went. to Winston. Churchill
and talked for 40 minutes about Beav-
erbrook but they got what the boys
-around Vines Square would call the
brush-off.•
-
n big fact is one
reason why
Beaverbrook does not have a vast
-number of influential friends in gov-
ernment life today. But he cares lit-
tle.
London .buzzed with rumors from
time to time that Beaverbrook at
long last was being kicked upstairs
-untrue, of course, c ur , becauseChurch-
ill, 66 years of age, and keeping to a
hour days,
'routine of 16 and 17 ho, Ys ,
needs a man like 63 -year-old Beaver-
brook to act as trouble-shooter in
stra1ghtening out severe production
difficulties which he himself has no
time to do.
Socially, this man who was born
plain William Maxwell , Atitken• son of
a Scottish Minister in • Ontario, Can-
ada,
anada, runs true to form. Blackout time
is no excuse for him to stop confer-
ences, and twine a week occasionally
more often, be telephones the num-
erous editors and sub -ed'ito'rs who run,
his two London dailies (the Express.
and Standard) and barks out the con-
mand that they're all to show up in
30 minutes at his table .in the blast -
proof dining room of the Savoy Ho-
tel. Then, during, the course of the
meal, they discuss what's,wron and
what's right with the papers.

notes to his editors to allot bonuses
to reporters 'who have turned in some
particularly good work be has observ-
ed in the columns of his newspapers.
A 'near -constant, sufferer from asth-
ma, he has become a sun addict to.
get relief. Dunne -sun sessions on
the grass which surrounds his swim-
ming pool he does 'a large part of
his verbal letter writing.. it has been
his habit, Ihowever, just before retir-
ing at 2 a.m., to dictate a few last
thoughts into the ciietaphone that
stands alongside his bed.
Dinner hour in the Beaverbrook
eoiintry house is one experience. a
week -end guest won't forget quickly.
The food is good, though not overly
abundant, these 'days. When it is serv-
ed lime. er,-. you get the impression
you're eating at some blue -plate lunch
counter. The waiters move in fast
and the courses come around so
quickly a slow eater hasn't got a
chance. The meal develops into a
race among the diners, with Beaver-
brook the sure winner.
Despite this speedy service, convec
cation is continued --at a highly step-
ped up pace. Beaverbrook keep's it
moving, and the questions bebarks,
in a tone similar to Churchill, gained
penhaps from close association, are
remarkably , penetrating. Even his
roonversa.tiodal chit-chat demonstrates
that behind that dome-shaped, ireav-

Red Tape
Disappears
The first thing Max Aitken, Baron
Beaverbrook of Beaverbrook, d i d
when he was named .British Minister
"of State without portfolio and put in
charge of reorganizing the Ministry
of Information of -Petals had long neg-
lected: He talked, man 'to man, with
American members of the press.
Newsmen talked too: ,They told
him how many officials gave them the
run-around, how their stories kept
getting balled up in the red tape of
British censorship. They got a great.
deal off their chestse. "
Beaverbrook listened, and the next
day several of the most vehement
newsmen walked around 4n a daze be-
cause all ‘day they had received tele-
phone calls from hitherto unapproach-
able government officials who kept in-
quiring ,'Where have you been keep-
ing yourself, old man?" and wouldn't
they please drop around for tea that
afternoon?
Brings Simplicity To Tasks
Beaverbrook came to the rescue
quickly because, as publisher of two
great London newspapers, the iiaily
Express and Evening '`Standard, he
had himself encountered- the effect of
censorship before hecol>sing a t em-

For days the whole censorship and

Beaverbrook Whiston Churchill's

'Flom the U. S„ threatens to take ev-

Washington should find this Cana-

In all Englund there are few men
who arc as direct in action. Unlike'
most 'l`irrh bigwigs. for example,

,
Beaverbrook keeps no regular hours.
There has never been one office
which could be labelled as Beaver -
brook's. During all those days when
he was. needling the aircraft factories
into giving more Spitfires and Whit-
leys and Hampdens and Blenheims,
the was apt to show up one morning
in the office alloted him in the ram-
bling Ministry of Aircraft Production
building in central London and the
next in the drafting room of a Mid-
lands aircraft factory.
Beginning with that first morning,..
when he took over the reins of air-
craft production, he brought direct-
ness and; simplicity of operation into
.his facet. of the British war effort.
He showed ilp at his new job with
a small army of• carpenters and put
them to work tearing out vast num-
bers of partitions which formed of-
fices for more than fifty umbrella -
carrying executives who had been do-
ing their paper; work since September,
1939, in chaste, unhurried little cubi-
cles - each room complete with a
clean desk, a neat angular secretary
and a pot for brewing the 4 p.m. cup
of tea-
Whefi the men finished giving the
'works to that vast floor of methodical
chaos, the place was a replica of the
city room in Beaverbrook's Londtln
Daily Express.
Other Officials Complain
rite executives didn't like that, of
course, but there was nothing they
could (10 about it except maybe gri'ause
during lunch hour and appear slight
ly bewildered'. when reports 4ndieated
that these and a few other simple
changes had upped their own produe-
t'ion
The heads of two or three other
government departments who were in
competition with Beaverbrook for
priority on materials, and equipment
also didn't like the dictatorial and ag-
gressive methods of the man who
had
at 30 become a multi -millionaire in
private industry.
They complained bitterly, in fact,
and the day Beaverbrook seized, with-
out authority, a whole - shipload of
anti-aircraft guns assigned to another
government chief and whisked them
away in one afternoon to an aircraft
Factory which was badly under -gun-
ned, they exploded. •
')they went. to Winston. Churchill
and talked for 40 minutes about Beav-
erbrook but they got what the boys
-around Vines Square would call the
brush-off.•
-
n big fact is one
reason why
Beaverbrook does not have a vast
-number of influential friends in gov-
ernment life today. But he cares lit-
tle.
London .buzzed with rumors from
time to time that Beaverbrook at
long last was being kicked upstairs
-untrue, of course, c ur , becauseChurch-
ill, 66 years of age, and keeping to a
hour days,
'routine of 16 and 17 ho, Ys ,
needs a man like 63 -year-old Beaver-
brook to act as trouble-shooter in
stra1ghtening out severe production
difficulties which he himself has no
time to do.
Socially, this man who was born
plain William Maxwell , Atitken• son of
a Scottish Minister in • Ontario, Can-
ada,
anada, runs true to form. Blackout time
is no excuse for him to stop confer-
ences, and twine a week occasionally
more often, be telephones the num-
erous editors and sub -ed'ito'rs who run,
his two London dailies (the Express.
and Standard) and barks out the con-
mand that they're all to show up in
30 minutes at his table .in the blast -
proof dining room of the Savoy Ho-
tel. Then, during, the course of the
meal, they discuss what's,wron and
what's right with the papers.
,Working Day Never Ends"

constant stream. • of orders;rs qaeries

notes to his editors to allot bonuses
to reporters 'who have turned in some
particularly good work be has observ-
ed in the columns of his newspapers.
A 'near -constant, sufferer from asth-
ma, he has become a sun addict to.
get relief. Dunne -sun sessions on
the grass which surrounds his swim-
ming pool he does 'a large part of
his verbal letter writing.. it has been
his habit, Ihowever, just before retir-
ing at 2 a.m., to dictate a few last
thoughts into the ciietaphone that
stands alongside his bed.
Dinner hour in the Beaverbrook
eoiintry house is one experience. a
week -end guest won't forget quickly.
The food is good, though not overly
abundant, these 'days. When it is serv-
ed lime. er,-. you get the impression
you're eating at some blue -plate lunch
counter. The waiters move in fast
and the courses come around so
quickly a slow eater hasn't got a
chance. The meal develops into a
race among the diners, with Beaver-
brook the sure winner.
Despite this speedy service, convec
cation is continued --at a highly step-
ped up pace. Beaverbrook keep's it
moving, and the questions bebarks,
in a tone similar to Churchill, gained
penhaps from close association, are
remarkably , penetrating. Even his
roonversa.tiodal chit-chat demonstrates
that behind that dome-shaped, ireav-
ily-lined •face there lips a shrewd'
