BRITISH EMPIRE
“BULWARK OF PEACE.” RUGBY, Tuesday. Lord Swinton, Air Minister, in a speech in Cumberland, said that what gave Britain pre-eminence in the world to-day was that her people had stood together in difficult times and had had no resort to a dictatorship of the Right or of tho Left. Referring to defence policy he said that they would go forward without panic but, with the firm determination to do whatever was necessary to ensure the peace of Britain and of the Empire. To make sure of that it was necessary to have a force for peace in the world. Britain and the Empire—the greatest bulwark of peace—should be strong enough to make it not worth while for anyone in a moment of wickedness or madness to take the risk of Avar. —(British Wireless).
