BRITAIN AND SOVIET
COMMENT ON DELEGATION'S REPORT
RUGBY, Feb. 6.
The manifesto issued by Sir Walter Citrine and M. Shvernik (leader of the Soviet trade union delegation) is warmly welcomed by the press. Describing it as "a message of greeting and hope to the peoples of Nazi-occu-pied Europe," The Times says: "It marks a further stage in the co-opera-tion between Britain and the Soviet in the common struggle for freedom." In regard to M. Shvernik's straightforward comments in connection with the considerable unutilised reserves on which Britain can still draw, The Tim.es says: "No sensible person will resent their candour. To investigate them and find appropriate remedies where needed will no doubt be one of the first tasks of the new Minister of War Production, Lord Beaverbrook."
