THE ALLIES’ AIMS
'PEACE COUNCIL’S REQUEST MORE ADEQUATE STATEMENT (Rec. 7.30 p.m.) LONDON, May 1. The Bishop of Birmingham, the Dean of Canterbury and seven members of the House of Commons are among the signatories of a National Peace Council memorial to Mr Winston Churchill, Mr Anthony Eden and the Allied Foreign Ministers, appealing for a more adequate statement of the United Nations’ aims before launching the western offensive. “The major Allied purpose is the achievement in Axis countries of political conditions likely to assure future peace and the co-operation of their peoples in the common life of the world,” says the memorial. “It is imperative on the ground of humanity alone that no effort should be spared to achieve that purpose in such a way as to limit the heavy loss of human life and material destruction which the invasion of Europe would entail.”
