MR. CHAMBERLAIN'S PLEA FOR PEACE EFFORT AT GUILDHALL BANQUET

London, To-day.

Mr. Neville Chamberlain was singled out for extra- ordinary demonstrations of enthusiasm at last night's Lord Mayor's Banquet at the Guildhall, which retained all its customary brilliance. When the Prime Minister entered the building all those present, including foreign diplomats, rose and cheered, and later when he rose to speak after dinner, the ovation lasted several minutes.

Mr. Chamberlain said he interpreted the demon- stration as expressing the spirit of England- thankful to have been spared the ordeal which had come so close but ready now to answer any call which the country may make in order that they may face the future with equanimity.

He would like to get rid of the He suggested that British in-
