hope and the PRAYER that peace In
labor would prevail in the near fu-
ture in our country, and that pend
ing permanent peace, every work
ing man and woman in America
would continue to give their un-
selfish support to the struggle for
liberty in which the people of Eng
land and the United States are now
engaged, and that endeavor to ex-
plain to the American workers that
if England falls. the United States
cannot stand alone.
They fully understand the treach-
cry and danger of Japan, but they
also clearly understand that the
monster Hitler and the German
machine is responsible for every act
of Japan; and the English people
are determined when they destroy
Hitlerism they will throw their full
resources against Japan.
Forget Your Grievances.
From the masses of the people of
England, from employers, from
political leaders, from the organized
labor leaders, and from those that
are reorganization their request I
bring this appeal to you: That you
forget grievances and misunder-
standings amongst the workers in
order that we may more thoroughly
unite in this great world struggle to
save them and bring liberty back
to the other nations that have been
destroyed.
And to the employers of the Nation
again speaking for the people oi
Britain, I appeal that you forget
luxuries, profits and the building UP
of future businesses for the moment
so that, all joining hands, backing
our Government in this great strug-
gle, we may be successful in once
again seeing the light of victory
thereby re-establishing the condi-
tions of freedom and opportunity
and justice which have prevailed
before that human liberty and free
dom were threatened and endan-
gered by the inhuman monsters
represented by the militaristic
forces of Germany and Japan.
And as a last personal opinion
based on expressions from men in
high and low places in England, /
say to you that unless you do this
you and I and all of us are ir
danger of losing that which we now
cherish more than life-not wealth
but liberty and freedom.
This is the message I bring you
from Britain.

The Only Man for 1t

Brian Donlevy, whose perform
ance as the Marine commander in
Wake Island made him con-
tender for an academy award, is
going to play supporting role in a
picture as favor to Preston Sturges
who lifted him from villain roles
into the rank of heroes.
The role will be that of hard
boiled governor in The Miracle of
Morgan's Greek" starring Betty
Hutton and Eddie Bracken. DON
levy's part is not starring one and
is confined to one sequence, but
when Sturges wrote it in The
Miracle of Morgan's Creek" he could
think of no one but Donlevy to
play it.
