British Labor Opens Drive to Convince Pacifists on Rearmament
London, Oct 2 The British Labor Party launches a campaign to persuade pacifist members that rearmament against Russia is vital to prevent war. Chairman Sam Watson urges support for rearmament and conscription, arguing that collective security requires strength and that disarmament rhetoric clashes with defense needs. He criticizes the Stockholm Peace Petition as a fraud and stresses the need to free backward peoples and spread real democracy to avert war. Morrison calls for targeted rural outreach, door-to-door campaigning, and personal talks to win farmer support.
