Manchester Visited

Mr. Willkie's 60-minute tour of bomb damaged areas in Manchester included some of the most enthusiastic scenes there for many years.

Dense crowds stopped the car time and again and the police bodyguard had to be augmented to save him from mobbing by his admirers.

He told a reporter; "I have found the answer to the question I was sent out to ask," referring to the hundreds of people with wher he had spoken "the people's spirit is magni-fient. I do not believe that any motion in the world is more united in a cause than the people of the British Isles..Mr, Willkie said he was more impressed by what was still being produced by industry than by the damage done.—Reuter.
