There are still millions of Britons who cannot stand the sight of Sir Stafford because he is too red. But millions more are beginning to like his coloration?not primarily because they want Communism or Socialism in Britain but because they feel that the leftist leaders are best equipped to win the war and the peace.
Sir Stafford's mission to India is an important milestone in his political career, but even if he fails it will not necessarily be the last milestone. If he succeeds, he will certainly be the No. 1 candidate for the Prime Ministry, should anything happen to Winston Churchill. Even if he fails in India, he might still move from No. 11 Downing Street, his present address, to No. 10. Britons are determined to have a more dynamic, more progressive war policy. They hope Churchill will produce it. So does Sir Stafford. If Churchill fails, the nation will probably ask for Sir Stafford Cripps.
* Sir Stafford also has two adopted sons.
