The Chairman said numerous messges expressing regret for inability to attend had been received. The Duke of Nor thumberland expressed the greatest ad- miration for Mr. Gwynne and the work be had done. Lord Salisbury admired the "independence and unflinching since rity of the paper. Lord Northcliffe

said that but for his absence in Scotland he would have been present to offer tri- bute to the fine pare played by the Morning Post before, during, and ince the war. Mr. 8. Walsh, MP., acknow- Fledged "the fearless unswerving advocacy of the highest national interests" by the paper-

to the nation because when war broke out be WES deterred from taking military ser vice by the wise judgment of the pro- prietor of the Morning Post. Though woll qualified, to take an active part in a compaign, he could not have served his country better than he did in the editorial chair. He began life as a war correspondent and his career offered fas cinating opportunities for the biograph or. He was a-spórtamen in the fullest. truest sense, and many incidente illne trafod This versatility and enterprise. Few men in the profession equalled bím in knowledge of foreign affairs, and a wide visim with an independent judgment qualified him to guide his fellow-citizens toward a consistent national policy.

Mr. Gwynne, after paying a tribute to his staff, said the pleasure he felt in meet. ing so many friends was enhanced by the presence of many members of the new National Party. The occasion was cot ono for political controversy, but amid party conflict it was well to keep in mind the true, functions of Government to pro- vide carity for the Empire against out- side attack and to pursue a consistent policy for the promotion of the happiness and prosperity of the governed. Judged by those tests the Government had not sacceded which allowed war to come upon' na like, a “ bolt from, the blue and bad excited anxiety and mistrust by pro mises to the people during the war which were incapable of falllment. The Jese politicians interfered with trade the better for trade and industry. A strong National Party should follow a straight- forward policy which the people would understand and trust.
