“APPALLING MENACE”
CANADIAN VIEW OF GERMANY.
ALL AID TO BRITAIN NEEDED. (Received This Day, 1.30 p.m.) OTTAWA, December 2. The Prime Minister (Mr Mackenzie King) warned the Dominion House of Commons that Germany, with her forces, machines and materials largely intact, presented “an appalling menace. It is going to take all we can do and give to beat them,” Mr Mackenzie “King said. He dissociated himself completely from Mr Hanson’s statement that the situation at present was grayer than previously. He said that if the Government had yielded to the public demand earlier in the year and had sent thousands of men overseas it would only have saddled Britain with an additional burden. Instead, a balanced programme of war production, coincident with the raising of army, naval and air forces was worked out.
