MALTA'S EXAMPLE OF STOIC ENDURANCE

MALTA HAS SET an example of stoic endurance of which the whole Empire may, well feel proud, says a London “Times” com- mentary yesterday on the King's message to the Acting Governor.

The "warm loyalty to the British cause shown not for the first time by this island peo- ple is itself a tribute to British methods of government and a complete answer to the vilifications of Goebbels and his Italian imita- tors.

It is a complete reply also to the long sustained efforts of Ita-.. lian propagandists to convince. the world that Malta is really part of Italy and that the Maltese, a

Turn Out For Navy Neither the absence of their ac- customed protectors nor periodic bombing from Italian aeroplanes nor the long tale of enemy suc- cesses has weakened their attach- ment to

the British Empire or their confidence in the ultimate triumph of the British cause,

What they think of the Navy with which their island has been intimately and honourably asso- ciated for long generations was shown a few weeks ago when ships reinforcing the Mediterran- ean Fleet put in at Valetta. They arrived during a particularly Alerce air raid when the whole population had taken shelter but as soon as they heard the music of the flagship's band and saw the familiar grey outlines of a British battleship the people, disregard- ing the bombers, poured out in thousands to welcome her.

"The streets were packed with cheering crowds and the har- bour thronged with salling boats dancing round the ship in exult. ant enthusiasm.

Her presence confirmed the faith they hold so staunchly that British sea power will preserve them in their free membership of that. Commonwealth of nations to which they are proud to belong." -British Wireless.
