London, Sept. 2O.--(AP)-
Prime Minister Chamberlain
declared today that no threats
could deter Britain and her
allies from achieving her war
aims, but that "what we will
not do is to rush into adven-
lures that offer little prospect
of success"
With the obvious purpose of
allaying public anxiety as to
whether the western allies
were striking vigorously
enough against Germany,
Chamberlain declared in the
House of Commons:
"There is no sacrifice from
which we will shrink. There is
no operation we will not un-
dertake, provided our respOn-
sible advisors, our allies and we
ourselves are convinced that it
will make an appropriate con-
tributiOn to victory"
