Our Heritage Ugder Democracy Never in the history of the world was there a time when it was so necessary and important that every man, woman and child living under the protection of the British Flag should learn the story of the sacri- fice and efforts of generatiOns of loyal and patriotic citizens who plac- ed loyalty to their King, service to their country and the interests of their fellow men far and away ahead of their own personal ambitions to gain wealth or glory and brought about our democratic form of Gov- ernment under a limited monarchy. To-day there remains but two great Democracies, the British Com- monwealth of Nations and the Unit- ed States of America. Most of the other great countries are under more sons best known to themselves the dictators are not content with dic- tating to their own peOple, but their lot less totalitarian control.

Ont. 1 Willowdale 308 By WILLIAM GUY CARR organized are in forces and p2in agents every other countzy in [hr world using carefully planned meth- ods to undermine the loyalty of the people and to destroy their form of government so that ultimately they will become as vassal states under the power of despotism. There is no more glaring example than what has happened to Spain. Everything belonging to the past is more or less destroyed â€" religion} national character, traditions and art. No matter which side has won in the bitter struggle. a dictatorship will be the result, be it Communist or Fascist. If those who were en- trusted with the government of Spain prior to the revolutior. failed in their duty to such an \extent that the population grew so dissatisfied that their anger and bitterness went , beyond control, it was the men who failed in their duty who were to blame, not the principle of demo- cratic government. Why, then. de- stroy the system because the human element failed to carry out its duty? What have these countries which have come under the control of dic- tatorships received in return for what they have lost? They have seen the fond tradi- tions of the past uprooted and de- stroyed; they have seen religion per- secuted and God blasphemed‘; the citizens have had their individual in- dependence of thought and action taken from them; they have lost their freedom of speech; they have seen the sacredness of the home and home life destroyed; they have seen the reverance and respect in which we hold motherhood scoffed at. The age old right of an individual to use his initiative and‘ leadership in pol- itics and industry has been taken away. In return what did‘ the citizens of those countries which allowed their loyalty to be undermined, until the structure of democratic govern- ment toppled and was destroyed. re- ceive? Instead of religion their children are taught “There is no God". In- stead of enjoying their independence as individuals, they are treated as a common herd. They must exercise as they are instructed; they must serve or drill; they must work as they are told to work; they must earn just so much; and they must eat and drink just what the law al~ IOWS. Unlike this Country or the United States, those who do not like to do what they are told are placed in concentration camps. In dictator countries the Minister of Propa- ganda does the talking for them. They, the people, may still think, but they must not think out loud. To us our home is our castle no matter -how humble or poor it may be. As such it is held inviolate by 1 marriage is immaterial: divm‘gt. the law of the land. No person may trespass upon, no officer of the law may enter into yOur property or home except by authority of the Crown. A special warrant is necessâ€" ary for the purpose of making a search or an arrest to correct a breach of the law, or to apprehend a criminal, or to prevent a crime from being committed. \Ve believe that our system of family life is the heart-blood of the nation. We believe that parents are subject to the law of God; that the children are subject to their par- ents, and that the whole family, as good and loyal citizens are subject to the State, reserving only the right to demand that “The Government shall be of the People. by the Peo- plc, for the People". In dictator countries. citizens have no more freedom to determine their own lives than did the negro slaves before the Civil War. Thcir minds , are trained from the ago of reason to believe that which the dictator and his henchmen determine. They must live as they are directed to live and die when they are told to die. At best they are being trained so that in the opinion of their dicâ€" tator they will make the most form- idable opponents to an attacking enemy and the most docile ammuniâ€" tion fodder should the dictator cide upon a war “to i-stulvlish Country's rights". “'9 respect virtue in woman: “’4‘ (lL‘ the love and reverance (-11‘.‘ llll"l’ll'.‘1‘<.

If you fail to raise your hand in the recognized manner of salute and yell loudly land lustily “Heil Hitler” (or what- ever the cry may be according to which country is concerned) the flat side of a policeman‘s sword will catch you a crack on the head which will just about knock you senseless, and you will linger in jail, or he sent to a concentration camp, until you change your views, or at least yOur attitude towards the established ,rule. The difference between English speaking people and those who have raccepted‘ dictatorship forms 01' gov- ernment is this. From time imme- morial up to the present day, the British people have dethroned or punished and have even destroyed those who failed to carry out their trust and oath of office, instead of destroying the constitution. Ever since the signing of the Magna Charta by King John in 1215, the rights of the subject have been recognized and considered sacred. Ti-day we elect our representatives who govern through the Crown. British history from 1215 to date has not always been a happy one, but it has been less boisterous than the Crown still sits secure upon the head of our-Most Gracious Majesty. King George VI, as the symbol of democracy and it is still the link that binds the chain of Empire. With- in our time, not excepting anything in the centuries which have passed since the signing of the Magna C‘harta. there has happened the most :astounding event in all the history l of the British race. That event was :the abdication of King EdWard VIII, 'and the crowning of our present King George VI. On the tenth day of December 1936, King Edward VIII renounced the throne. Two days later his younger brother assumed the responsibilities which go with sovereignty. For such unselfish de- always feel true and heartfelt grat- itude. realize that in accepting such a re- sponsibility this ex-service man, who served his country and' fought a- board H.M.S. “Collingvvood” during the.war, did not hesitate when the call of duty came. He was asked ito assume far greater responsibili- ties than any other man on‘ earth. From 1914 at the age of eighteen. when in delicate health, he served in the great war as a midshipman and sub-lieutenant, very humble ranks in the Royal Navy. To-day Governments may come and Govern- ments may go, Presidents may be elected and discarded. but his re- sponsibilities go on until death re- lieves him of his burden. He is fortunate as having as his wife the daughter of an illustrious family of noble race. Lady Elizabeth and Countess of Strathmore. The importance of and the sacrcdncss of marriage and family life as :1 Chrisâ€" rtian and civilized institution was never more emphasized than when, on the twelfth day of December 1930, two days after his brother's abdication, he spoke in the Throne Room of St. James Palace. The King’s audience consisted of the Lord Mayor of London. Aldermen and Sheriffs of London. three hun- dred members of the Privy Council. and the Hith Commissioners of India and the Dominions. The si‘d task of signing~ the Instrument of Abdi- caiinn had just been complctwl.

Words cannot describe nor can momentous occasion, nor is it. possible for any other person than himself to know how he felt when he bent his head and took upon his shoulders the weight of responsibility which had proved too great a burden for his elder brother. History records the fact that throwing back his head, and squaring his shoulders, he re- plied slowly in a firm clear voice, “I meet you to-day in circumstances which are without parallel in the history of our country. Now the duties of sovereignty have fallen to me I declare to you my adher- ence to the strict principles of con- stitutional government, and my re- that A solve to work before all else for the welfare of the British Common- wealth of Nations”. Thus the new King spoke. Then came a pause and in loweri voice obviously shaken with emotion. the man spoke. He spoke from his heart just the same as you and I might do...He was speaking as a man with a wife and family...and he said “With my wife and help- mate by my side I take up the heaVy task which lies befOre me. In it I look for the support of my peoples". Was a greater drama ever con- ceived by the mind of man, or a greater burden ever shouldered by an individual for the benefit of man- kind since Christ Himself knelt in the Garden of Gethsemane and begg- ed “Oh Lord if it be Thy will allow this chalice to part from me...but not my will Thy will be done”. In the light of these facts the Royal Visit to Canada must not be l Phone HYland 2081 regarded as a show where crowds gathered to see a spectacle or sat- isfy their curiosity; it was an his- toric event of such tremendous im- portance that the eyes 01' the whole world were upon the Dominion. Rad- icals, and masters of international intrigue, will use the reception we gave the King and Queen as the yard stick by which to measure their fu- ture activities. It is time that the cxâ€"scrvice men of the Dominion made it clearly and wiler known that. while we believe in democracy and the liberty of the peeple, we are no longer going to sit quiet while unnaturalized aliens. disâ€", gruntled cranks, hired emissarics of other powers. and those addicted to‘ the practice of Communism.
