SERIOUS WARNING

When I look on the whole tumultucts scene of this етег widening war, I think it is my duty to give serious warning to the House and the country to be on guard equally against pessi- mism and against optimistn.

There are, no doubt, temptations! to optimism. It is a fact that} mighty Russia, so thoroughly and treacherously assaulted, has struck 'back with magnificent strength and courage and has brought pro- digious and well-deserved slaugh- ter on the Nazi armies.

The United States, the greatest single Power, is giving us aid on a gigantic scale and is advancing; in rising wrath to the very verge

of war.

It is a fact that German air superiority is broken and air at- tacks on this country for the time being have almost ceased.

It is a fact that the Hattie of the Atlantic, although far from won, Is, partly from American in- tervention, moving progressively In our favOUT.
