E. PATERSON, Manager PREMIER KING OUTLINES THE NATION'S POLICY CANADA TO CO-OPERATE VOLUNTARILY In his address to the nation on Sunday Premier King said that Can- ada's first concern is with the de- fence of Canada. To be helpful to others, we must 'ourselves be strong', secure and ,united. He went on to say that the government had already availed itself of the provisions of the !yar Measures Act to defend our coasts, our land and our people. In part he said: Herr Hitler and the Nazi regime in Germany have persisted in their attempt to extend their control over other peoples and countries, and to pursue their aggressive . designs in wanton disregard of all treaty ob- ligations, and peaceful methods of adjusting international disputes. They have had resort increasingly to agencies of deception, terrorism and violence. ` It is this reliance upon force, this lust for conquest, this de- ten'iination to dominate throughout the world, which is the real cause of the war that today threatens the freedom of mankind. The fate of a single city, the preservation of the independence of a particular nation, are the occasion, not the real cause of the present conflict. The forces of evil have been loosed in the world in a struggle. between the pagan conception of a social order which ignores the in- dividual and is based upon the doct- rine of might, and a civilization bas- ed upon the Christian conception of the brotherhood of man with its re- gard for the sanctity of contractual relations and the sacredness of human personality. As President Roosevelt said on opening Congress—on Jan. 4, "there conies a time in the affairs of men, when they trust prepare to defend not their homes alone, but the tenets of faiths and humanity on which their churches, their governments, and their very civilization are found- ed. The defence of religion, of de- mocracy, and of good faith, among nations is all the same fight. To have one, we must make up our ntinels to have all." This, I believe, is the position in which all nations that cherish free institutions, individual liberty and social justice find themselves today. I need not review the events of the last few days, They must be present in the minds of all. Despite her unceasing efforts to preserve the peace of Europe, the United King- dotn has today, in the determination to honor her pledges, and meet her: treaty obligations, become involved in war. This morning, the King, speaking to his peoples at hone and across theseas, appealed to all, to make their own, the cause of freedom, which Britain again has taken up. Canada has already answered that, call. On Friday last, the government, speaking on behalf of the Canadian people, announced that in the event of the 'Unitech Kingdom becoming en- gaged in war in the effort to resist aggression, they would, as soon' as parliament meets, seek its authority -for effective co-operation by .Can- ada ,at the side of Britain. In what manner and to what ex= tent Canada may most effectively be able to co-operate in the common cause is, as I have already stated, something which parliat'tent itself. will :decide. All I need to add at the moment is that Canada, as a free nation of the British Commonwealth, is bringing her co-operation volun- tarily, Our efforts will be voluntary. The people of Canada will, I know, face the days of stress. and strain which lie ahead with calm and resolute courage., There is no home in Canada, no family and Ito individual whose for- tunes and freedom are not bound up in the present ,struggle. 'I appeal to my fellow Canadians, to unite .in a national effort to save -from destruc- tion all that makes life itself 'worth living, and to preserve : foe' future generations those liberties eand in• etitutions, which others ` have be- queathed to us.' !
