BULWARK OF PEACE
BRITAIN AND THE EMPIRE NO RESORT TO DICTATORSHIP (British Official Wireless) RUGBY, Sept. 14. (Received Sept. 15, at 5.5 p.m.) Lord Swinton, the Air Minister, in a speech in Cumberland, said what gave Britain pre-eminence in the world to-day was that the people stood together in difficult times and had had no resort to dictatorship of the Right or the Left. Referring to the defence policy, he said they would go forward without panic, but with the firm determination to do whatever was necessary to ensure peace for Britain and the Empire. To make sure of that it was necessary to have a force of peace in the world. Britain and the Empire were the greatest bulwark of peace and should be strong enough to make it not worth while for anyone in a moment of wickedness or madness to take the risk of war.
