BETTER RELATIONS
EMPIBE AND UNITED.. STATES
P.A. WELLINGTON, Friday. "Let there be friendly criticism when it is called for, but it . must be based on accurate information and careful study of facts," said the High Commissioner for the United Kingdom, Sir Harry Batterbee. addressing the British-American Co-operation Movement to-day. He said the best means of maintaining and developing co-operation between the British Empire and the United States was by the two nations getting to know each other better. As a result of the war millions of Americans - and British had got to know one another. Countless friendships had been formed which were going tip be of the greatest value in keeping the two peoples closely linked. "We want all the information possible about each other, but it must be accurate information," he added. "A great responsibility lies on- the Press and other channels of publicity to. see that the facts are true and accurate. Further, if they are to fulfil their purpose in a democratic world they must be inspired by the desire to bring about international co-operation and unity." >
