LABOUR TEST
QUERY FOR HITLER PEACE PROTESTATIONS CHANCE OF FREEDOM POLES AND CZECHS (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 11.30 a.m. RUGBY, Oct. 10. Dr. Hugh Dalton, one of the leading members of the Labour Party, in a speech, said that the Labour Party 1 always had been a peace party, but to people who asked that the war might be stopped he replied: “If the" war was stopped on Herr Hitler’s terms, when would it start again? It would start again as soon as it suited Herr Hitler’s purpose to break his word once more.” No one now believed Herr Hitler’s promises. “We want peaceful deeds, net worthless words from him now,” he said. As a first step to a peace conference, asked Dr. Dalton, would Herr Hitler withdraw his troops and police from Warsaw and Prague, and restore freedom to the enslaved Poles and Czechs?
