Far from waning, British colonies' earlier assurances of solidarity with ingly ele country are being increas-corny a message in practical ways, given by Lord Lloyd, Colonial Secretary, to Reuter yesterday.
He declared that the colonial empire of 60,000,000 people of all races and creeds is as solidly behind Britain as in the opening days of the war when loyal messages poured in, speaking eloquently of unswerving devotion to the Allied cause.
Practical expression to these sentiments is being given in a veritable stream of gifts in money and kind, in offers of service and reorientation of colonial life to the war's exigencies. By their cheerful sacrifices colonial peoples have proved their appreciation of liberties under British rule and have shown a lively recognition of the tyranny that would inevitably follow Nazi domination.—Reuter.
