Britian To Fight
To Her Last Man
Predicting the wj?r la likely to go
on for two year a more. Prime M inlater
Wlnaton Churchill, asserted
Sunday night that the British people
are determined to defend their
cities and towns street-by-street, even
until they are "laid in ruins and
ashes."
In a radio broadcast to the United
States the fiery-tongued Churchill
Hald Britain was steeled and ready
for the greastest struggle of Its long
Malory and 1b deaf to any talk or
suggestions of peace.
We shall seok no terms; we shall
tolerate no parleys," he said.
"We may show mercy?but we ask
none."
Asserting that all of France's battleships
have been sunk, captured or
effectively bottled up, Churchill sail!
that the daring coup" of the British
fleet against the former ally had
strengthened the security, not only of
Britain, but of the United 8tates.
If the French fleet had been allowed
to fall into the hands of Adolpb
Hitler, he said, ,lt would have "endangered
the security both of Great
Britain and the United States."
In vibrant, confident voice, ChurchIll
said in his 18-mlnute speech that
Britain Is girding herself for two
years or perhaps even more, of war
against Germany and Italy.
"We must prepare not only for the
summer, but for the winter, not only
for 1941, but for 1942, when the war
will, I trust, take a different form
from the defensive In which it has
hitherto been found," he said.
Thus, Churchill again gave voice to
statements repeated by other British
leaders that Britain's war alms are
not merely to defend the British Isles,
but to beat off Hitler's Invasion attempt
and then turn back to the continent
and crush Germany.
He was the first government leader,
however, to refer specifically to
the probability or a long, drawn-out
struggle.
As the struggle Increases In intensity,
Churchill said, Britain's navy
will continue to keep open communications
with the New World "from
which an increase in aid will come."
Making no effort to mimimize the
dangers and terror that will come
with Hitler's expected invasion attempt,
Churchill said" there are 1,600,000
troops under arms in the
British Isles to repel the attack, along
with more than 1,000,000'defense volunteers.
"Woe betide them; they will get
short shift," he said of Nazi parachutists,
airborne invaders of fifthcolumn
11 al tors. *
"Hitler has not yet been withstood
by a great nation with a will
power equal of his own," Churchill
added In contrasting Britain's powers
of resistance with the "poison
and intrigue" which he ruid struck
- - - - ?
down Norway, Holland, Belgijum and
France.
"Should the Invader come to Britain
there will be no placid lying down of
the people In submission before him,
as we have seen come to pass in other
countries.
"We shall defend every village,
every town and every city. ? ?
."The vast uuiss of ixmdon itself,
fought street by street, could easily
devour a hostile army.
"We "would rather see London laid
in ruins and ashes than til fit it should
be painfully and abjectfuly enslaved."

Poultry Short Course
Clemson, Aug. 28-30
Clemaon, July 15.?The 11th poul*
try short coprae, to be held at Clemhow
August 28-30, will provide both
practical and technical Information to
thoae Intel-anted In poultry ho that
their operations may be made more
efficient, Haye P. H. Gooding and J. W.
Matthews, extension poultryinen in,
charge of the program.
I "The program will include all
phases of poultry production," the
extension specialists state, "and practical
demonstrations are given whenever
possible, Special emphasis will
be placed on flock selection, developing
better poultry flocks, and sexlng.j
An examination will be held on flock
selecting following the course."
The poultrymeu also remind that
the short course has no entrance requirements.
Rooms will be available
free of charge, beginning'the night of<|
August 27, in the college dormitories
for both men and women. Meals may]
be obtained at the college hotel or
at lunoh rooms on the campus for
about $1.00 per day.
A program and complete information
about the short' course may be
| had from county agents or from the
Extension Service at Clemson.
The crisis in Hitler's war on England
can't be far off. There are indications
that the British blockade Is
affecting Germany seriously, and unless
relief conies from one quarter or
another Germany may starve this winter,
as lands which are productive
before German Invasions are not productive
now. Hitler must, therefore,
either carry out bis threat to destroy)
the British isles, or a stalemate will;
will ensue, which will ont help'
Hitler and his people- so far as their i
food problem 1? concerned. It's a de-j
vastlng attack on England, therefore,
In the next few days, compared with
which the boipbing from the air the
two or three weeks has been but
a faint precusor. Victory for Hitler
will mean Russia for the next victim.
Defeat may mean the beginning
of the end, as Lelpslc did for Napoleon.?Chester
