POST-WAR AIMS
TREATMENT IN PROSPECT FOR GERMANY
LAID DOWN' IN ATLANTIC CHARTER. DECLARATION BY VISCOUNT CRANBORNE. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 12.30 p.m.) RUGBY, May 21. Winding up the debate in the House of Lords on post-war policy towards Germany Viscount Cranborne said the Government policy was clearly laid down in the Atlantic Charter. Nothing would alter that. “By all means,” he said, “let us have justice against the Nazi leaders, but let it be British justice. Otherwise I do not see what we should be fighting for. If we are going to stand firm in the world, we must stand by the principles in which we ourselves believe. The British Government has made it abundantly clear that it cannot concert peace with the Nazi leaders. 1 repeat that declaration with all the emphasis in my power.” So long as Germany behaved in a decent manner, Lord Cranborne said, she would be treated economically like all other nations.
