All it asks is to receive value for its money and to receive it quickly. The News Chronicle says: "It will show the dictators that their appar-
ently pacific speeches have not pulled the wool over our eyes.” The Daily Express says: “The new programme will make us so strong that no enemy will dare to attack us.” The Daily Mail says: ( "The barometer tells us that we are becoming stronger daily as the needle of expenditure moves steadily from danger to security.”
