THE PEOPLE’S DUTY
TO FIND PEACE ONUS NOT ON GOVERNOR. (Auzcraliari Press Association.) (Received this day at 10.15 a.m.) SYDNEY, May 4. Welcoming the Governor, Sir. Philip Game, at a civic reception at Harramine, the Mayor, Mr Smith, referred to the unsettled state of the country. He said that he hoped .Sir Philip would be able to find a solution to the difficulties confronting the people. The Governor replied: “I agree that affairs n/re in a chaotic condition, but as the country has had sel.-govern-ment for seventy-five years, and the people have accepted the responsibility for self-government, it is the duty of the people, and not- the Governor, to find a way out of the trouble. I will help as much as I can, however, to bring about a state of peace.”
