MR CHURCHILL’S DISTURBING PICTURE
Rec. 11 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 7. Britain with its Commonwealth and possessions was in grave peril, said Mr Winston Churchill addressing 6000 people at Manchester. “I am deeply anxious about our means of survival in Britain as a free, prosperous and civilised community. The Socialists will make it impossible for 48,000,000 people to live in Britain, and at least onequarter of those alive to-day will have to disappear in one way or another. Immigration, even if practised on a scale never before dreamed of, could not operate in time to prevent this melancholy decline. State monopoly of all means of production, distribution and exchange would be fatal to the people’s material well-being and personal freedom as they have long enjoyed them,” he said.
