This Freedom.

Twenty years may give us much, may give us almost anything, may even give us Liberty. We live in a Free Lund, a land which is proud of her son, William Wilberforce. for what he did for the poor, ignorant alaves of the rest of the world. Britain for us means Free- dom. We are proud of our Magna Carta, which saves the treasonous criminal against the State from prison until he is condemned by his foolish fellow-citizens. Bri- tons have no need for a Statue of Liberty at the mouth of the Thames, for they carry

one in their hearts. We are proud of our murderer laws which prevent a from being arrested without a war rant signed by some magistrate, chosen from the ranks of bullders, plumbers, and barkers so that he may secure the Corporation con- tracts.
