"THE ROAD TO BERLIN"

Hitler has made one great mistake in Canada and iii America! For years ho has been trying to tell us that this was not our war, for years he has been trying to tell us that Britain and America have nothing in common, and for the past eight months he has been trying to tell us of the great differences which exist between Russia and the Americas. He's failed. We know there is only one great fundamental difference between Russia, Britain, and America. It is this: here in America we drive our cars on the right - side of the road, in Britain they drive on the left, and as anyone who has ever been to Moscow knows, those Russians invariably drive down the middle of the road. But the road to Berlin is a wide one, and there is room enough on it for all of us. and we hero, on this continent, will take the right side of the road, and Russia can take the middle of the road and Britain can take the left of the road, and we'll go swinging along side by side. And no matter how long the road is, no matter how many detours there mav be through the Far East, and other places, no matter how rocky the road is, it won't matter—because we know as long as we three trust each other that road will bring us to Berlin—together.—Part of a broadcast by Quontin Reynolds, foreign correspondent for Collier's Magazine.
