Queen’s Message To Youth
LONDON, May 16. The Queen, addressing an Empire Youth Sunday parade on the lawns of Buckingham Palace, and 2000 boy and girl members of the Red Cross and the order of St. John youth services, said: “Today our hearts are . filled with thanksgiving for the great events which marked the past weeks and for the success which, under God's guidance, rewarded the endurance and courage of countless men and women from all parts of the Empire. “Amongst them are the fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers of many of you. All these have given up all that was most dear to them because they believed that no price is too great to pay for justice, liberty and truth. “It is for you, youths of this country, to show you are not unmindful of their example. I would like you to go home with a firm resolve to work as bravely and steadfastly for a better world for all mankind in the peace to come as you are working now to end this war in victory. “To do this you must train yourselves now to be able to fulfil this resolve in future —serve one another selflessly, and put all your trust in Almighty God.”
