HOPE OF THE WORLD
BRITAIN AND PEACE SPEECH BY MR. BALDWIN By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright WINNIPEG, Sunday. The Prime Minister of Britain Mr. Baldwin, adressed a huge crowd from a window in Parliament Buildings be fore he left Winnipeg by train for the east. Mr. Baldwin denied that signs of decadence were appearing in Britain. He said: “What we feel at Home, and what I think must be more difficult for you to realise than it is for us, is that on us mainly—on the people who speak the English tongue, the people of British stock —rests the greatest hope the world has of peace —continued peace. “Peace is a vital necessity for the world, and for no part of the world is it more vital than for the Empire. All we want to do is to develop ourselves and our countries in peace. That will be our great contribution to the world.”
