UNION CONGRESS
■ INTERNATIONAL GATHERING RESISTANCE TO AGGRESSION. STR W. CITRINE’S ADDRESS. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright (Received This Day. 9.50 a.m.) ZURICH, July 5. Sir Walter Citrine, delivering his presidential speech at the International Trade Union Congress, emphasised the importance of building up a union of peacelovers, which was not encirclement. but a shield for Democracy and for freedom against the avowed and inveterate enemies of both. It was, he declared, a bulwark against Nazi and Fascist philosophy,, violence and power politics. The congress pledged its support to resistance to invasion and conquest which prove that Germany’s encirclement propaganda is a gross travesty of the truth.
