"SEEING IT THROUGH"
BRITISH INDOMITABLE SPIRIT i GIYES LEAD TO !! | WORLD. v _ Addressing members of the Wel- i lington Rotary Club, Mr. Albert Rus- jn] sell remarked that he happened to bo |j!| in London at the time of the great financial crisis. He could not help ! jfll being filled with the greatest adrniration for the way in which Britain m" faced the situation, and for the in- |l]i domitable spirit of the people in seeing the thing through and setting an " [ example to the world. Mr. Ramsay H MacDonald, he considered to be a 1-. bigger man than many people realised. He was not parochial, andwanted } || to see the whole world, and not only j Great Britain, or1 the Enipire, moving in the right" direction. The United States, said Mr. Russell, seemed to be moving in circles. Its constitution had been drawn up in stage-coach days, and therefore did not wcrk in these aeroplane days. The war debts, it was generally considered, should be and would he cancelled, so why not now? By the adoption in New Zealand of a hopeful outlook it would be easier to follow the Mother Country's lead, but it would have to be recognised that conditions had changed and i
that the good old days would never return. Thinking men were turning more and more to Higber Wisdom for I direction.
