CHURCHILL “WARNED OFF THE TURF”
(Rec. 7 p.m.) LONDON, July 27. Mr Churchill was in a philosophical mood when he returned to Downing Street after handing in his resignation to the King on Thursday night, says the political correspondent of The . Daily Mail. Sitting back in his chair, the former Prime Minister said: “Well, the race has been won anyway,” meaning that Germany has been defeated. A friend present remarked, *‘We have to thank you for it.” Mr Churchill replied, “Yes, that’s probably true, but you must remember I have now been warned off the turf.”
