Mr Winston Churchill, at Dundee s^jd that the Budget proposals would not add to the cost of living or impose a burden on us or the Dominions, who had sent not mere haridfuls of soldiers but great armies. The Dominions would regard the * proposals as a kindly act. We should not treat theni as a question of principle", but as a, measure of Imperial diplomacy designed to express gratitude to the Dominions.
