ENDURANCE NOT ENOUGH
“The British people's attitude towards the war is that they are ready to endure,” said Viscount Astor in a recent’speech. “But that*ls not enough If that is the attitude of the public, and I think it is, that shows that wc are not dealing adequately with pub-
licity on the home front. We have got to instil in the public mind the sense of urgency, that we have to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to the war. If. we could get that across, it would be unnecessary for Ministers to urge the miners to work hard, or to urge others to save and not spend. If we realised the urgency of impending peril, which undoubtedly exists,
we should get more than an attitude on the part of the public—fine though that is—:of willingness and readiness to endure.”
