Reviewing the first ten weeks of the war in a radio address tonight, First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill declared that “the whole world is against Hitler and Hitlerism” and predicted that ending their domination might “pave the way to a broader solidarity of all men in all lands.”
“The whole world is against Hitler and Hitlerism,” Churchill said in concluding his talk. “Men of every race and clime feel that this monstrous apparition stands between them and the forward move which is their due and for which they strive. Even in Germany itself there are millions who stand aloof from the seething mass of criminality and corruption constituted by the Nazi party machine. Let them take courage amid the perplexities and perils, for it may well be that the final extinction of the baleful domination will pave the way to a broader solidarity of all men in all lands than we could ever have planned if we had not marched together through fire.”
