THE BRITISH EMPIRE
POWERFUL FAMILY OF NATIONS BRITAIN HAT ALONE IN WAR y LONDON, October 4. (Received October 5, at 11-45 a.m.) Mr Duff Cooper stated that an Empire publicity campaign throughout Britain was being inaugurated on October 7, the first purpose of which was to drive home that Britain does not stand alone, but is a partner in a world-wide immensely powerful family of nations with vast reserves of man power, industrial equipment, raw materails and foodstuffs, all of which are now mobilised to a point at which they must be a vital factor towards victory. The second purpose is to remind the public that the Empire offers the world new hope for the future. It is not the Nazis who have tho goods to deliver, but the British Commonwealth.
Mr Duff Cooper, emphasising India’s part, said it was Britain’s hope that India would soon take its place in this free and equal partnership.
