QUEEN WILHELMINA
GRATITUDE TO CANADA FRIENDSHIP AND SYMPATHY (Rec. 1 a.m.) OTTAWA, June 24. Queen Wilhelmina, in a statement in Ottawa, expressed whole-hearted gratitude for the friendship and sympathy Canadian people had shown her family in these trying times. She expressed profound admiration of the immense sustained war effort of the British Empire, of which she had seen outstanding examples in Britain. "A hard and difficult struggle still confronts us," she added, "and no efforts can be too great, no sacrifices too exacting, to assure the final triumph of our common cause, with freedom and justice in the world. Temporary reverses should not dishearten us. United in toil and purpose, our confidence in ultimate victory remains unshaken."
