it was Important for the journalists to
understand the determination of this
I country to w in the war. He urged
that advantage be taken of the op
portunities that would be afforded to
study the people. "You will see," he
said, "that never have we striven so
hard, and you will realize that the
British people will persevere to the
end. Everything depends on the will
of the people The mental attitude of I
munitions makers is as important as
that of the men who fight the battles."
"Too often," he said, "war corre
' spondents pay overmuch attention to
the maps They judge the position by
the swaying buttle lines When, how
ever. you would understand properly
how the whole British nation is strain
ing every nerve to attain the one great
! end. and how setbacks only stiffen
their solution, then only can you gauge
the true position of affairs. We hope »
by means of this center to make such
an understanding possible "
