The highest percentage, accord
ing 10 Pearson's figures, is for
aircraft, aircraft engine sub-as-
semblies and parts. This totals
nearly two billions or ass per
cent OF the total orders. Next

But, he declared, the country's

Churchill asserted Adolf Hit
Ter will find Britain better pre-.
pared to best off invasion now
than was the case last summer
or fall. He said fatty, however.
that the war in 1941 would be
no less terrible than in 1910, and
added:
Before us lie many months
of having to endure lombard
ment of our cities and industrial
areas without the power to make

Churchill told the councillors:
That bad man (Hitler) has
never had so great q need ~ he
has now to strike Britain from
his path. He Is master Of q great
part of Europe. His armies can
move almost wherever they will
upon the continent. He holds
down eight or ten countries by
force, by secret police, and by
still more odious local quis-
lings."
He said this occupation Of
countries, to which presently

was building q hatred for the
Nazi creed and for the German
name which generations n q
perhaps centuries hardly will ef-
face"
Britain's improved position
Churchill attributed in part to
the success far beyond our
dreams" of the campaign in
north Africa in which he said
nearly 10000 prisoners have
been taken" and Eight or nine
divisions of Italian troops, well
equipped, have been dashed out
of existence with inconceivsh'y
