“Theres one story going around about an American soldier who asked to be served with a drink as quickly as the British got out of Tobruk. There’s another very similar story about Pearl Harbour. And the odd and significant fact is that the same stories have been reported at about the same time from so many towns in Great Britain that it’s almost impossible to believe they are not being put around by some bunch of Fifth Columnists anxious to cause trouble between Britain and America. I’d venture to suggest that you should be on. the lookout for the same kind of stories in .your own country.”—Vernon Bartlett, M.P. speaking in the 8.8. C. North American Service.
