It is time for this country to stop playing into Hitler's hands, and to unshackle our own.
The arming of our ships is a matter of immediate necessity and extreme urgency.
I want particularly to take this occasion to express my great confidence that your armies will ultimately prevail over Hitler.
I am confident that ways will be found to provide the material and supplies necessary to fight Hitler on all fronts, including your own.
