The issues at stake call for the last ounce and the last inch of effort. "We in New Zealand cannot share the perils of our men fighting overseas, nor share the daily peril of our kinsfolk in the British Isles, but there is one thing we can do-here in the safety of our distant shores work harder and produce more. "Our armed forces must have supplies, and Britain urgently needs additional foodstuffs and raw materials. To supply these we must, in every industry, give all the time and energy we have, forgetting for the time being profits and wages, regardless of fatigue and discomfort, and giving up, if need be, many privileges. Even then our sacrifices cannot equal those of men who give their lives. "Our soldiers, sailors and airmen are facing the enemy with courage and* cheerful determination, and we in New Zealand in the factory and in the field may unite with them in the common task, giving our service in the same spirit. "To employers and to workers and all others who render service, my message is, let us work as we have never worked before. WORK FOR YOUR LIVES!' \y PRIME MINISTER. R l«.»0
