lf-ctcrmincd to Prevent Third War

SOUTI-IPORT, England, SepLl 7—-(CP Cablc>——The government is determined to resist every blandishmenc of Germuiy w com- pel Britain by “cringltig and crawling" to devise a post-war policy which would allow a third war to develop, Labor Minister Ernest Bevin said today in an ad- dress to the Trades Union Con- gress.

"It is not a question of revenge but of protecting the generation yet unborn." he said.

The principle the government has accepted for demobilization is length of service, he said, and i: would not "submit to key men and others pulling wires one way or another, Industry will have to adopt itself to such a plan."

Referrin to Britain er, the la r minister number employed in fighting, on the ground and in building and equipping aircraft "isn't many shor of our army in the last war."

tThe strength of army, not including overseas di- vlsionl, at the Armistice in 1918 was approximately 4,000,000.)
