BRITAIN SPEAKS:

PRESENT WAR A CONFLICT BETWEEN MASSES AND THE PEOPLE-PRIESTLEY

In discussing what the present war is about and why It is being fought, MR. J. B. PRIESTLEY, the well-known author, put a new construction on this subject when he described the present conflict as a war between THE MASSES AND THE PEOPLE, in the course of an eloquent broadcast talk from London yesterday in the series "BRI- TAIN. SPEAKS.”

Mr. Priestley described this as a fundamental definition and declared that it was a conflict between. two radical conceptions of human beings in general.

"It is against all this that we are fighting," declared Mr. Priest- ley.
