flis Majesty the King Appeals for United Action The Following Is The Full Text Of The Address Delivered By His Majesty King George VI To His People In All Parts Of The Empire Following Britain’s Declaration Of War Following the aniwuncement that Britain was at war his Majesty the King addressed the following ‘mess- age to the people of the Empire: “In this grave hour, perhaps the most fateful in our history, I send to every household of my peoples, both at home and overseas, this message, spoken with the same depth of feeling for each one of you as if I were able to cross your threshold and speak to you myself. “For the second time in the lives of most; of us, we are at war. “Over and over again, We have tried to find a peaceful way out of the difference between ourselves and those who are now our enemies, but it has been in vain. “We have been forced into a con- flict, for We are called, with our allies, to meet the challenge of a principle which, if it were to pre- vail, would be fatal to any civilized order in the world. It is a principle which permits a state in the selfish pursuit of power to disregard its treaties and its solemn pledges, which sanctions the use of force or threat of force aâ€" gainst the sovereignty and independ- ence of other states. “Such a principle, stripped of all disguise, is surely the mere primi- tive doctrine that might is right. And if this principle‘were establish- ed through the world, the freedom of our owu country and of the whole British commonwealth of nations would be in danger. “But far more than this, the peoâ€" ples of the world would be kept in the bondage of fear, and all hopes of settled peace and of security, of justice and liberty, among nations, would be ended. “This is the ultimate issue which confronts us. For the sake of all 2that we ourselves hold dear, and of the world order and peace, it is un- thinkable that we should refuse to meet the challenge. {o -u-H- -4»--n-w-n-n-o-n- o VOL. LVIV.
