ADDRESS AT OPERA HOUSE. Mr .G. R. Sykes, presided over a iarge attendance at the Opera House yesterday, when an address was given by Mr C. W. Clift, of Wellington, Dominion President of the British Israel World Federation. <.n the preserit crisis and the case .’’or British Israel. Mr Clift, who received an attentive hearing said no one had the right to set himself up as a prophetic student. Mr Clift considered that the present .conflict was the earthquake prophesied in the Bible before the battle of Armageddon. He stated that Britain must emerge victorious from the present crisis,- as Britain could not be destroyed. Mr Clift commented on the possibility of a Federation of European States, again stated in the Bible, but on a Communistic basis. In the second part of his address Mr Clift presented the case for British Israel, giving the 20 points of proof that the British people were of the tribe of Israel. “Because Britain and the U.S.A, possess by far the greater part of the world’s natural wealth, if they decided to act together they could stop any war by withholding supplies,” commented Mr Clift. Mr Clift quoted from the Bible in support of his observations, and at the conclusion of his address was accorded a hearty vote of thanks.
