HC Deb 01 March 1944 vol 397 cc1416-7
34. Captain Longhurst

asked the Minister of Information whether he has taken, or is taking, special action to ensure that the Prime Minister's recent announcement that British and American troops will take part on a fifty-fifty basis in the European offensive will be given as much publicity as possible in the U.S.A. and elsewhere in view of the publicity given to statements that American troops would predominate.

Mr. Bracken

This speech, like all other speeches made by my right hon. Friend since he became Prime Minister, has been fully reported in the American Press. Likewise, broadcasters in the United States have continued to give full reports of the Prime Minister's speeches.
