"The Führer will be impressed only if the British and the French nations cure themselves of their present laxity and slovenliness. What has been achieved by Germany has been achieved only because the ceaseless effort of every German, man, woman, and child, has built up that platform of strength from which Herr Hitler speaks. If we do not show ourselves the equals of the Germans in patriotism, we shall be neither worthy foes nor desirable friends. The only logical sequel to Munich is the 52-hour week in French factories and conscription in England. Then we can talk as great nations. But not till then."
