Abstract
AN impressive and stimulating International Youth Rally for Victory was held in London on September 11. A message from H.M. the King emphasized how clearly the young men and women of to–day appreciate the true meaning of the present struggle and the gravity of the task which the years of reconstruction will lay upon their shoulders. As Mr. Bevin, the Minister of Labour, pointed out, the Allied Governments are fortified in their present tremendous tasks by the support of the masses of the people, and are reinforced by the vision, enthusiasm and energy of the youth who are engaged on the battlefield, in the air, on the seas, in civil defence, in transport, in the workshop, and in the fields; to this might well be added the laboratory. “It will be yours to rebuild and shape the new world” said Mr. Bevin, so it is to be hoped that youth of the present and future will be given every opportunity to do so when that time comes.
