“BRITAIN’S NAME SUNK LOW”
BY-ELECTION MESSAGE FROM MR CHURCHILL
LONDON, September 21. “Never in the lifetime of the oldest among us has the name of Britain sunk so low in the world as under the Socialist Government,” says Mr Churchill in a message to Mr Willis Roxburgh, Conservative candidate at the by-election for the Gorbals Division of Glasgow.
“Even the present standards are only maintained because we are re-
ceiving a large part of our needs from capitalist America, at whose system our Socialist rulers never cease jeering. Our misfortunes result largely from the extravagant, fantastic experiments of Ministers who meddle in matters of which they have no knowledge or understanding.”
