Knowledge Of Seas Will Win War Says U.S. Envoy Winant

LONDON, May 14 (Reuter).-"The freedom-loving and peace-loving peoples of this earth are coming to realise that this is not Britain's fight alone," declared the United States Ambassador, Mr John Winant, addressing the English-Speaking Union luncheon in his honour to-day.

"On the wise use of the navies of the world may hang the destinies of the world's free

people," Mr Winant continued.

Y.M.C.A. Assets Seized

By Nazis: U.S. Protest

The State Department has protested to the German Gov. ernment in behalf of the American Young Men's Christian As- sociation against seizure by the invading German forces of three camps owned by the Polish Y.M.C.A.

The protest points out that the value of the three build- ings is approximately $2,000,000 and that more than one-half of this amount came from American donors and was given with the stipulation that if the buildings were ever used for other than Y.M.C.A. purposes the money would revert to America.

According to reliable reports from Poland, the Y.M.C.A. building in Warsaw is

UNDER FIRE FROM M.P.S

Discussions are taking place among back bench M.P.s in all Parties on making a joint protest against the way the B.B.C. presents news of Parliament.

For some time there has been strong criticism of what M.P.s describe na the B.B.C.'s "front-' bench" blas.

M.Ps declare that B.F.C, accounts in the news
