HONGKONG'S VICTORY
CELEBRATION §.
(Continued from Page 4) * great struggle had never taken place. The men who have fallen and the men who have fought to gain the victory deserve our lifelong gratitude. We must do everything| in our power to prove it.
Throughout the world to-day the dawn of Peace is being acclaimed. We are met here on behalf of the people of this Colony to tender to our beloved Sovereign our heartfelt thanks and congratulations on the glorious victory that has been cor- summated by an honourable Treaty of Peace. His Majesty, has indeed! been a leader of his people through- out the war, and Her Majesty the Queen, and the other members of the Royal Family, have nobly done their part. The whole Empire to day is united by a bond of loyalty and unity more real and more per. manent than ever before.
hideous slaughter of brave men has come to an end in a righteca Peace. Let us thank God for that. Let us rejoice in this great vic. tory not in a spirit of boastful ness, which was the downfall of Germany; but in "a spirit of re- verence, worthy of the uoble sacrifices that have been made."
I beg to move
Fang, in common with, colanies, has suffered
froža
the results of the terrible war, and
to-day we rejoice that Peace has at laat come and with it is born -= regenerated world in which, let us all hope, brotherly love, justico and liberty Will take the place of ↑ hatred, aggrandissment and tyranny.
(Applause.)
The whole assembly then rose and His Excellency said: "I beg to put to the meeting the resolution which I read just now, which has been seconded by the senior Un- official Member of the Executive Council and supported by the senior Unofficial Member of the Legislative, Council
The resolution was' carried unanimously, and the session con- cluded with the singing of the National Anthem.
