(Received 12.30 p.m.) PERTH, This Day. Commenting on the statement of the Prime Minister, Mr J. A. Lyons, that owing to recent vast changes in the world situation the peace which Australia has enjoyed for 150 years is threatened, the Leader of the Opposition, Mr Curtin, said the Commonwealth Parliament should be called together immediately. He added that the only construction that could be put on Mr Lyons’ statement was that, for the first time in history, Australia was confronted by the hazard of actual aggression against her soil and against the lives of her people. * . j» |. j'
