Greet Chance for Britain
Seen in Greek Victory
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, Dec. 2.-Greek success
against Italy opens for Britain "a
vista of opportunity which, if we
can turn it to full account, may
be of decisive influence on the whole
future course of the struggle" L..
S. Amery, Secretary Of State for
India, told a Newmarket audience
yesterday.
He suggested that Italy's attack
on Greece might have been "dou-
BILE cross" on Germany, Italy's axis
partner, and added:
"If we can enable Greece to hold
her own until we have disposed of
the Italians in Egypt we shall have
secured for our armies a foot
hold from which we might threat
en- the flank of any German attack
on Turkey"

MEXICO CITY, Dec. "A
condensed tert OF the inaugural
address of President Manuel
Auila Camacho yesterday fol-
LOUIS.
Every new epoch calls for the re-
newal of ideals. A popular clamor
through the entire republic demands
now the material as well as the
spiritual consolidation of our So
cial achievements into a prosperous
and powerful national economy. The
country wants new era OF recon-
struction, of abundant life, Of eco
nomic expansion.
If, before, a few privileged classes
who held the political control of
the Nation and the economic struc-
ture of the country, converting every
effort of the people into an unfair
rich class composd of very small
minority, today, after we have Sc
cured the fair distribution of pro-
duced wealth in accordance with
the law, it would be an ineXcusable
thing if We were not to convert
to power and economic splendor the
abundant resources Mexico possesses
and the wonderful opportunities it
has.
All enterprises and investments
know, only too well, that not a
single business which thrives on
iniquitous salaries and the violation
of the fundamental rights of every
man can hope to exist in a country
which has a public administration
such as ours, representing the cause
of justice. But they must also know
that, whenever they comply with
our laws, every legitimate profit they
make shall be respected. The COM
panieS willing to work with constant
effort and willing to risk the dangers
any business may encounter. may
count with the guarantee from our
institutions. The working classes,
on the other hand, will reach the
clear understanding that production
will not only benefit the companies
and homes of the workers, but will
secure the welfare of the entire re-
public.
Must Use Resources.
We should not forget that our
ideals for collective justice are still
too far from their goals; unemploy-
ment and low salaries existing in
our country demand our immediate
attention to make everyone living in
it a man of dignity. The man who
has a job needs the assurance that
the contracts under which he works
collectively must be pertinent: on
the other hand, we must all assume

partment to the category Of Ministry
of Labor and Social Prevention to
signify the importance to the ma
ton of our working men, to sig
Nifty the Importance Of their social
security, of their physical well being,
and their intellectual education, as
well as the advantage to the Nation
of the solution of conflicts between
industries and unions. The welfare
of the people and the destinies OF
the republic are involved in the
peaceful organization Of all factors
of productions
Let the labor organizations close
their lines and discipline their prin-
ciples. They will count then with
the gratitude and adhesion of the
people. We are very near asking
the labor organizations with their
feeling Of power and justice to be-
come the source of national as well
as international confidence.

fortune of war, that was all.
And it was good to go out in the

the struggle to bring in the Maid of

Waterman had felt, just how three or
four other men he had known must
