Churchill Urges German Entry to Western Europe Union
The secretary warns against aggressive tendencies while arguing for Germany's inclusion in a Western European parliament. Two aims drive the move: peace and prosperity, plus placing Germany at the heart of Europe to deter a future East West clash. Churchill suggests a December or January session to admit Germany, but Morrison urges cautious steps and no haste before unification.
