PRIME MINISTER'S APPEAL
The Prime Minister concluded with an appeal to all classes to go cheerfully with the Government over the hard broken road along which national security, honour and well-being were to be found. "The burden we shall ask each individual to bear in relation to national sacrifice will not be an inequitable one," he said. "Already His Majesty has led his people by a Royal example. Unemployed themselves have written claiming privileges of sharing in the burdens. "I ask the House of Commons to uphold the Government's hands in the work. One definite thing I can say is that it is our duty to remain here, and it is your duty to keep us here until the crisis is past; until the world has been convinced once again that sterling is unassailable, until the wages and incomes of our people are free from the threatened destruction."
