Churchill Urges Britain
Ito Cast LOT With u. 5.
To Overcome PeriIs
BY the Assoeioied Press

GLASGOW, Scotland. May 49,
winston Churchill last night
urged Britain and the Common
wealth to throw in their lot with
the United States to overcome the
|perils confronting the free world.
Dark and tragic indeed is the
picture which stares us in the face
whenever we look up from our
daily toll" he told a meeting of
the Scottish Unionist Association,
the Scottish division Of the British
Conservative Party.
With biting sarcasm he accused
Britain's Socialist government of
missing opportunities to make
Britain strong internationally. He
chided Prime Minister Attlee for
failing to maintain intimate rela-
tions with the President of the
United States to avoid what
seemed to be policy differences.
He spoke scornfully of some
Socialist members of Parliament
who. he said. are "pro-Chinese
although it is the Chinese who
are killing our men and the
Americans. who are helping us.
But, Mr.. Churchill went on:
1--WE have not lost faith in oul
destiny. we are the same people
in the same island as we were in
the great days we can all remem-
ber. We have but to cast away
by an effort of the will the en-
feebling tendencies and fetters OF
socialist rule, and then we can
stand erect once more and take
our place among the great powers
|of the world"
He said the effort must be made
in close association with the
United States and regretted that
incidents had disturbed relation
ships with America.
