REASONS FOR DELAY
IN ASSISTING RUSSIA SOUGHT BY LONDON NEWSPAPER. PRESENT POSITION FOUND ALMOST UNENDURABLE. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, July 28. “Popular agitation for a second front has burst out with renewed vigour in the last few days,” says the “Daily Mail.” “Public impatience can be understood. Resolutions and mass meetings are in some ways admirable, but Russia is suffering terrible losses and making colossal sacrifices, while we apparently are not making an active military effort to help her. It is a position that the British people find almost unendourable. “The official statement on June 11 that a full understanding had been reached in regard .to the urgent task of creating a second front in Europe in 1942 meant one thing to most people—that Britain would intervene on the Continent before the end of the year. Yet there are no signs of such intervention. There must be weighty reasons for delay.”
