When doubts come ask yourself this ques- tion What was the alternative ? I will tell" you the alternative-an arrogant, ruthless military empire astride Europe, France prostrate, Russia prostrate, the little nations trampled upon-Europe, which has suffered more almost than any other continent for naticual freedom, trampled under an iron tyranny. That was the alternative. Britain would have survived the worst for a while God has given us the seas-our mont round this castle in the ocean. No empire could have crossed that, but you would have had a British Empire face to face with a Europe which would have become a German empire-two empires facing cach other with concentrated fury, intensest passion, waiting for the dread and deadly moment when the Enal struggle would come. That is what we paid the big price to avert. (Cheers.)
What would have happened in thai great | faal'Armageddon I do not know. Who can predict? War is like an illness; you cannot tell where it will strike. All I know is that every nerve, every fibre, every resource possessed by this great Empire would have had to be concentrated; that would have been part of the machinery; and we should have been now inrenting, preparing, organ- ising the machinery of destruction to meet other machines of destruction across the flood which, ose day, would bays burst upon ua.

How are you to avert it-If your had a great catastrophe one day: in Aberystwyth which killed 100 of you young men, and maimed and inutilated many more, and trebled your burdens, there would have been a determination to rebuild in such a way that that catastrophe could never happen again. (Cheers.)That is the supreme task of statesmanship at this moment. You may quarrel about this, and you may disagree about that, and you may think that that might have been better done, but the mind, the heart, of the people ought to be directed to one thought" to see that the deluge never comes again. (Checra.) We are rebuilding. It needs patience, steadiness, industry, and as much unity as possible in a country where we have always had our little quarrels upon many topics. We are slowly working through our difficulties. It will be one of the most amazing stories when it comes to be written, not merely how: Britain, absolutely un prepared for war, leaped into the arena with very little armour and u naked sword, and how, fu a couple of years, she had the greatest armies in the world.
