"SOME MEASURE OF JUSTICE NOW, TILL JUSTICE IN FULL CAN BE GIVEN"
HIS. NG REDflEC ATION
"Would it not be better and more economical, I ask you, and I am asking the Members of Parliament particularly, in the long run to give us some measure of justice. Now I use the word justice, I do not use the word aid. It is not State aid we are looking for; it is equality in education that we ore looking for. We are not looking for charity, we ore not looking for a hand-out, we are looking for justice. Would it not be better now to give us some measure of justice that could be increased gradually until full justice was done rather than be put to the terrible expense of building classrooms and equipping and maintaining schools to accommodate the children of the independent schools."

His Grace concluded his speech, "I hope that the day is not far distant when something will be done, and indeed I am confident that it will be done and that the justice that we have been denied so long and so shamefully, will eventually be meted out."
