You can give in. What ever you do T hope you will do it quick ]y. Time here means' lives. The more shells the surer and speedier the victory.'

Mr. Lloyd George announced that specimens of tl.'e shells needed would si ortly be exhibited at Cardiff, Newport ;md 'Swansea. .Advices from Glasgow state that eight of Beardmore's workmen with the Amalgamated Engineers are organising- delegates who have gone to the front for .a week to see the soldiers actual nee-els . The visit will likely be followed by others from different centres with a view of stimulating tl:e outpu of munitions .
