ASSURANCE, RENEWED
MR GREENWOOD BROADCASTS TO CZECHS. HOUR OF LIBERATION COMING. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, May 26. Mr Arthur Greenwood, Minister without portfolio, said in a broadens speech to the Czechoslovak people: "On the fourth day of the war 1 broadcast on behalf of the British Labour movement a special message to the Czechoslovak people. I declared that the cruel injustices imposed on you must be righted, and I assured you that your hour of liberation will strike. I repeat that assurance with equal confidence today.
"I know our enemies will not scruple to pursue their evil designs of conquest and domination with relentless ferocity, but the material and moral resources in the services of the Allies are immeasurably greater than those at the disposal of Germany. "Our immediate task is to bring these resources into full and harmonious operation by redoubling our efforts in all the depths of war activities. That task is now well in hand. The British people have not been daunted by the initial setback. Hold fast to your faith and do not desert the flag of liberty. Victory that shall be ours will bring restoration of your freedom."
