GREAT BRITIAN: Honorable Mention

GREAT BRITAIN

The British Gallup Poll last week asked the British public: "In your opinion which country has so far made the greatest contribution toward winning the war—Russia, Britain, the United States or China?" The vote: Russia, 50%; Britain, 42%; China, 5%; U.S., 3%. This vote underlined two facts of which many a U.S. citizen is still ignorant or only vaguely aware: 1 ) Britain feels a very deep gratitude toward Russia; 2) Britain is completely unsentimental about the U.S.
