British Labor Leader
Urges Speed i'm Defense

CONVENTION HALL, New Or
leans. Nov. 25. CUP)-Sir Walter
Citrine, head of the British trades
union congress today assured the
American Federation of Labor that
Great Britain will fight on until
relationships are abolished in Eu-
rope.
He coupled this pledge with a
plea to the labor leaders to CO.
operate in every way with the gov
ernment In speeding up the multi
million dollar preparedness pro-
gram.
Recounting Britain's unprepared-
ness at the time Adolph Hitler
began his drive to a new order
in Europe, Citrine said:
Il don't want anyone to think
even after five years of building that
we have made up the leeway in
armaments we faced then.
Il say this so that you may
profit from our experience and that
you may realize that the menace
may fall upon you at any time.
We made the mistake of believing
that promises were performance. A
Stupendous effort is needed here
as well as in my own country If
we are to meet successfully the
Axis threat"
