BRITISH LABOUR SUPPORT FOR WESTERN UNION
(Rec. 10.40 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 19. The Labour Party, in a 15,000 word pamphlet, ‘(Feet On The Ground—a Study of the Western Union,” said:. “It is not too much to say that the future of civilisation may well depend on the success of the great enterprise to which we have pledged ourselves. We must keep our feet firmly on the ground and resist all tempting mirages which seem to offer a short cut to our goal.. If we do so, the coining years will see a dramatic transformation in the whole world situation, and the nightmare which has haunted mankind since the defeat of Hitler will be forgotten in the dawning of a brighter day. “The type of co-operation now under way in the organisation for European economic co-operation and the Brussels Treaty is steadily making European countries more and more dependent on one another. The abstract freedom, of each country to decide its own policies is already limited in a thousand ways.”
