NOT EASY GOING
PATH TO VICTORY
EVERYONE MUST HELP
(P.A.) DUNEDIN, September 25. "It has been said that in my address in Christchurch I took a somewhat gloomy view," said the High Commissioner for the United Kingdom, Sir Harry Batterbee, in an address at a luncheon arranged by the Dunedin Chamber of Commerce. "I am quite confident about the final result of the war, but there is no easy path to the goal of our desires. We will in the last result have to depend on our own right arm for victory. It has been the British way through all the ages. "Blood and toil and tears must still be our motto if we are going to win victory," Sir Harry said. "I am convinced we have got to put into the winning of it greater and more intensive efforts than we have put in yet. If we do that, if we put into the war effort all our energy, all our resources, all our resolve, then, un 'er God, we can be quite confident as to the final issue, but it is—believe me—on that condition, and on that condition alone."
