CAN'T AFFORD DIVISIONS Mr. Bevin On The Aid-To-Europe Plan-

Hastings, July 17.
The Foreign Secretary, Mr. Ernest Bevin, said to- day that he had been accused of “leading the world to Munich" by accepting and pledging his full support to American aid to Europe un- der the Marshall Plan.
Addressing the Transport and General Workers Union, which he founded, Mr. Bevin said he had undergone much criticism for his endorse- ment of dollar help, but he was convinced that Britain could work within it and still be inde- pendent.
