WE SHALL NOT TURN FROM OUR PURPOSE, HOWEVER SOMBRE THE ROAD, HOWEVER GRIEVOUS THE COST BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT OUT OF THIS TIME OF TRIBULATION WILL BE BORN A NEW FREEDOM AND GLORY FOR ALL MANKIND."
With these stirring words MR. CHURCHILL, the British Prime Minister, con- cluded, amid prolonged cheering, an address he gave at a public luncheon before the London County Council at the County Hall, Westminster, yesterday.
"IT IS TIME THAT THE GERMANS SHOULD BE MADE TO SUFFER IN THEIR OWN HOMELAND AND CITIES SOMETHING OF THE TORMENT THAT THEY HAVE TWICE IN OUR LIFETIME LET LOOSE UPON THEIR NEIGHBOURS AND THE
WORLD.
SCIENTIFIC WE HAVE NOW INTENSIFIED THE SYSTEMATIC,
AND METHODICAL BOMBING, ON A LARGE SCALE, OF GERMAN CITIES, SEAPORTS, INDUSTRIES AND MILITARY OBJECTIVES.
We must keep this process going on a steadily rising tide until the Nazi Regime is either expurgated by us or, better still, torn to pieces by the German people them- selves.
