WORLD PEACE.
PRINCE’S TELLING APPEAL. A REMARKABLE GATHERING. United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright. LONDON, Oct. 31. There were 1000 guests at the banquet given by the League of Nations Union at the Guildhall to meet the Prince of Wales. It was one of the most remarkable gatherings of the season, representing, as' the prince said, onequarter of the human race, who had solved the question under the British Crown of disarmament, and wanted the rest of the world- to follow their example. ■ Mr F. Brennan, Mr P. Maloney, Mr Mr G. W. Forbes, Sir Thomas Sidey and their wives represented Australia and New Zealand. Lord Robert Cecil, who presided, said he regretted the absence from the chair of Viscount Grey, who was suffering from renewed eyesight trouble. The Prince made a telling appeal on behalf of world peace, which was the greatest crusade of all. An immediate response to his appeal was a gift of £SOOO from Sir Louis Baron, son of the late Mr Bernhard Baron.
