Address by Churchill on receiving an honorary degree of Doctor of Laws at Harvard University, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. J. Brian [Conen], President of the university, confers the degree. He talks about the need for the United States and Britain, as world powers to continue to cooperate during and after the war. He praises the effectiveness of the combined chiefs of staff and the need to retain that system after the war until another system is set up to assure security from agression. He states that the two countries are linked and made stronger by their common language, English and says that the empires of the future are the empires of the mind. Churchill says that the League of Nations was affected by a futile pacifism and the U.S. and Great Britain must work to create a more vigorous orgnaization to preserve peace. <35mn>
