STRENGTH "IS A FACT"

London, June 18.

The Lord President of the Council, Mr.Herbert Morrison, told a press conference today that despite grim'aspects, such as decreasing dollar resources and an unfavourable trade balance, Britain's basic economic strength "is a fact of which we shall see increasing evidence as the months pass."

At the seventh of a series of news conferences on the economic situation, he said: "We are going to come safe and sound through the long test of our national fibre...the day will come when we shall smile to remember the moans of of Jeremiah's abroad and the whines of faint

hearts at home." Mr. Morrison said there woohl continue to be short-term set backs, but the long term trend
