REBUILDING
FOUNDATION OF SINCERITY
''For more than a hundred years the name of our great industrial community lias been known throughout the "world. Our men and women have carried out trade and commerce to every land. To-day many of our homes, our cathedrals and churches, our university and schools, our factories and warehouses are damaged or destroyed by war. But the spirit of our people lias never been higher. The destruction -which we see around us presents an obligation to plan and to build a nobler civic and national and international life. In the hearts of our people that rebuilding has already begun. But we must face facts. Civilisation depends upon sincerity of purpose, in politics, in business, and in home life. If Ave build on any other foundation we build on shifting sands, and the security we long for will never be achieved." —From a Manifesto by the Lord Mayor of Manchester and the Mayors of Salford and St ret ford to the citizcns of their towns.
