December 4
The Prime Minister (General J. 0. Smuts) in a. speech at Bloemfontein on the international situation, said: “We have had serious setbacks but the tide has turned and there are many indications that victory will again be ours. It is a harder task this time, hut we will go on. We want to take our part in holding up a free world and; standing with those who have stood by us for generations. I have no doubt that when it is all over it will be generally admitted that South Africa, in a vital moment of her history chose rightly however difficult the choice may have been.”
