and will reconvene next week
The king said that despite the
efforts of my government to pre-
serve peace, Germany, in violation
of her solemn undertakings, wan
tonly invaded Poland.
This new instance of German
aggression and bad faith was a
challenge which we could not have
declined without dishonor to our
selves, without peril to the cause
of freedom and the progress of
mankind"
I'VE seek no material gain"
the king added. Liberty and
free institutions are our birth
right which we, like our fore
fathers, are resolved to pre-
serve.
Members of the house of COM
mons: l thank you for your ready
acceptance of heavy financial bur-
dens rendered necessary as a con-
tribution towards meeting the Sc
we're expense of war. So prompt
and ungrudging response has deep
ly impressed the world, and dem
onstrates the unflinching deter
mination of my people to make
every sacrifice necessary for vic
tory.
MY lords and members of the
house of commons: The issue is
clear. With united will, my peo-
Piles here and overseas have dedi-
Gated themselves to struggle. The
spontaneous decision of my do
minions to participate in this con-
flict and the invaluable help which
they are giving and are about to
give to the common cause has
been the greatest encourage
ment to me. With the aid of our
faithful French and Polish allies,
we cannot doubt our cause will
prevail.
"I pray that the blessing OF
Almighty God may rest upon your
labors."
