of the

cnarged
with the

of

benefitted

Sena

ing health.
Mrs. Knox and the Senators
Secretary,
were near,the

London,
Oct.
12th.—Presidiag
at
a
meeting
at the Mansion
House
today,
the
Prince
of
Wales
made
a
strong- plea
for
the
support
of
the British
Empive
exhibition
at Wembley,
near
London,
in
1923.
The
Prince
gave it as
his opinion
that the preparations
for the big
exhibi-
tion should
be procecded
with immediate-
ly,in order toprovide employment
for some
of the thousands
of able-bodied
men
who
had
offered their life
for
their
country.
““There
s
ould
be
no
deiay
in
starting
the
work’’, said
the
Prince.
He
asked
for an immediate
guarantee
of
« ne million
pounds
for the
work and
declared
that
nothing
would
set
him
on
his
way
o
India
with
rejoicing
more
than
the
knowledge
that this problemm
was
being
tackled
and that
there
were consequently
a
few thousand
happier
homes
in
Great
Britain.
Referring
to
his
recent
tours
of the Dominions,
the
Princ: emphasized
the “‘rapid expansion
and
sturdy
devel-
npment
and parhaps.
most
of ali,
tle in-
finite possibilities
of
those
nations
whose
.
people
-are
our own
kith
and
kin
and
on
whose
continued prosperity
the future
of our own communities
depends’’.
The
Prince
said
that his recent
visits
to
Aus-
tralia and Canada provid :d him with}valua
ble experience
which enabled him tojapore
ciate,
far more intimately than
he
other-
wise could
have
done,
the great probiems
which
are
common
to the Staiesmen
jand
peoples
of
each
portion
of the Empire.
He
was
much
struck,
he
said,
by the
unanimity with
vhiea
the
British
mm-
pire
exhibition
project
was
welcomed
by the Prime
Ministers
and
other
repre-
sentatives
of
the
Dominions
and
In-
dia.
He had
not doubted
the
wisdom
of
the
gospel
that
they
preached,
naneld
lv.
that
it
was
to
the
interest
of
the Empire
to
develop
igs
great
resour-
ees
and
to exploit
to
the
utmost
the
possibilities
of
Imperial
and
Natioral
improvement.
He
shared
the optimism
of
the
Dominion
Prime
Ministers,
also
trneir anxiety, that Britons should
be fully
alive
tothe
great
possibilities of waht
a
quarter of a century
ago the
late Rt
Hon
Jos.
Chamberiain
callex
"‘our vast
uade-
veloped
estate.””
Thre
Prinee
said
that
Great
Britain and
t .e Dominions
wanted,
in
connection
with
the pros: ective
ex-
hibition, to
take
stock jof British assets,
to
explore
every
avenue
to
fresh
mar-
kets ;,and
fresh
sources
of
raw
mate-
rials,
to
invest
men
and
mouney
in
parts
of
the
Empire
which
ecalled
for such
investments
and
promised
an
early
inciease
in
the
wealth
of
the
Britisk Nations and
an
early
growth cf
the prosperity
and
happiaess
of the
ia-
dividual.
They wanted,
said
the Prince
to
focus
pubiic
attention
in Britain
or
problems
which
are
the
daily
experi-
ence
of statesmen
throughout
the
seven
seas,
to
encourage
conmnercial,
indus-
trial
and
scieptific
research
arnd
make
the different nations
of the
Empire
bet-
ter known
to each
other,
and
he!p
peo-
ple
to
believe
that
an
Empire
which
was worth dying for,
was worth livingfor
and working
for.
'That
task,
said
the
Prince,
demanded
the
highest
ideals
and
the
most
earnest
endeavours.
He
intended
that
nothing
should
be
lack-
