50 YEARS’ PROPAGANDA
BRITISH LABOUR VICTORY Paris, Aug. 12. “Our Labour victory in Britain is only the beginning of our real victory, which will be determined by our future audacity,” said Professor Laski, addressing the French Socialist Party conference. The audience, as Professor Laski came forward, broke into the “Internationale.” “We have beaten Mr Churchill’s party, but I want to state that French and British Socialists owe Mr Churchill very much,” added Professor Laski. “Our Labour victory was simple. It was the result of 50 years’ propaganda. We want a similar big Socialist victory in France so that Britain and France have the same objectives and same methods.” The general secretary of the British Labour Party, Mr Morgan Phillips, stated that Britain would take the leaden fostering Socialism on the Continent, but British Socialists were definitely against union with the Communist Party.
