“STUPEFYING MAGIC”
MR CHURCHILL’S ORATORY. ATTACK BY LABOUR CRITIC. LONDON, February 14. “We must break loose from the stupefying magic of Mr Churchill’s oratory,” said the secretary of the London Trade Council, Mr Willis, in an address to delegates. “Fine words don’t win battles,” he continued.

Th nation is being drugged by the high-sounding phrases.” The council delegates passed a resolution severely criticising the conduct of the war, calling on the Government to eliminate vested interests which are blamed for holding up production.
