Jeffrey

told
Parliament
today
what

British
war
aims

asked
that
they
be
given
serious

He
would
restore
the
freedom
of
all

who
had
been
overridden
by
aggressors
and
provide
food
for
all

nations
as
soon
as
the
enemy
had
laid
down
arms.
He
would
refuse
to
negotiate
with
the

rulers
of
Germany
and
Italy

would
give
those
countries
the
kind
of
government
they
wanted
after
