Mr L. S. Amery. Secretary of State for India, surveyed the war situation in an address to the Plywood Company at a recent luncheon at the Holborn Restaurant.
He said that whatever might be the dangers that confront- ed us today, we should go out to meet them far stronger in An, numbers, far more powerful in resources and equipment, far better trained, and above all, with a fully justified confidence in our fighting men, on sea, on land, and in the air, and in their leaders, than seemed possible even six months ago.
