LEAD BY BRITAIN

EFFORTS FOR PEACE
(British Official Wireless.)
(Received November 6, 11.45 a.m.)
RUGBY, November 5.
The Prime Minister, in a speech at Liverpool, said that not only did Britain need a strong and tried Government, but he believed also that Europe was looking to this country for help and advice as she had never done before. There was undoubtedly throughout Europe a strong and resolute desire for peace. Britain must do what she could to pursue peace, and in regard to the present war they must try to find some solution agreeable to Italy, Abyssinia, and the League. Realising that they had failed to prevent the war, the next duty was to bring that war to an end, not by isolated action but by all sharing risks and all sharing the honour of settlement if it was obtained. Peace in Europe was a necessary and essential preliminary to the restarting of international trade, which was essential for the prosperity of all Europe.
