Plea For Peace In Ireland Made By

 The king and queen re-embarked on the royal yacht shortly after { o'clock
 Parliament tomorrow win discuss the kings speech and draft a reply.
 The king conferred honors on a number of prominent Belfast men.

 The king In his speech said:
 T inaugurate this parliament with the deepest hope and feel assured you will do your utmost to make 1t an instrument of happiness and good government.
 Few things are more earnestly de- sired throughout the. English speak Ing world than a satisfactory solu- ton of the age-long Irish problems which for generations embarrassed our forefathers as they now weigh heavily on us. Most certainly there is no wish nearer my heart than that every man of Irish birth should work in loyal cooperation with the free communities on which the British empire is based The request for full partnership in the United King dom and relirious freedom Ireland has enjoyed. She has now conferred on her the duty of dealing with all the essential tasks of domestic legis- lation and government. and I feel nc misgivings as to the spirit in which you will carry out the all-important functions entrusted to your care. T speak from a full heart when 1 pray that my coming to Ireland may prove to be the first step toward an end of strife amongst her people Il is my earnest desire that in southern Ireland there may ere long take place a parallel to what is now passing in this hall; that there a similar occa- sion may present itself and similar ceremony be performed.
 For this the parliament of the United Kingdom has in fullest meas nre provided the powers. for this the parliament of Ulster is pointing -hs way. The future lies in the hands oi | the Irish people. May this historic gathering be the prelude of the day on which the Irish people of the north and south. under one parliament ol two. as these parliaments may decide shall work together in common lovs for Ireland upon the sure foundation of mutual justice and respect
