THE BLACKLEG
By John HOveringham.

SEA of faces looked up at the

L y white faces. On the edge of the
crowd. knots of heaYycoated police
men watched threateningly. The words
of John Burberry reached them, and
passed beyond to the barricaded shops
We must be uTm- We want no
unremitting, unrelenting war. We are
suffering. our Womenfolk and children
are suffering. Some, maybe, will die
and their deaths VIII be at the doors
of our masters. But death is better
than slavery. Better to die of quick
hunger than gradual starvation. And
sacrifices must be made.

slowly. Not bit, not a scrap Its
