FRENCH CO-OPERATION.
ESSENTIAL FOR FREEDOM. (British Official Wireless.) (Rec. 12.10 p.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 25. Speaking at a luncheon given him by the “free” French newspaper France, which started publication a month ago, the Minister of Information (Mr Duff Cooper) declared: “At the moment across the Channel a dark cloud dims the mind of your compatriots and blinds them to their true interest, the source of their future prosperity, and the very personality of those who, arms .in hand, are defending their integrity, their essential liberties, and the future of their children.” The strong, “free” Frenchmen, Mr Duff Cooper added, had their eyes open and" France, difficult though the task was, would fill the vital , need of tightening the bonds between the French and British, which was an essential condition of freedom in Europe and the world.
