Stanley Baldwin's Eloquent

Speech

(Special Air Mail Service) London, Oct. 20.

Mr. Stanley Baldwin, the Prime Minister, was among his constitu ents recently, and spoke at the annual meeting of the Readley Division Unionist Association.

A resolution congratulating the Prime Minister on his appoint ment a head of the Government for the third time was carried with enthusiasm. The resolution also "extended to Mr. Baldwin our sympathy in the great respoL. sibility, of his office in these trou bled times, and trusts that his efforts may be crowned with a

speedy restoration of peace."

Mr. Baldwin, who had a rousing, reception, said:-

"I would roncat here what have said before, and what cannot be too often insisted upon, that nothing has been mure misrepre sented than this in many quarters of Europe that this conflict-if that be the right word to describe it-is no British-Italian conflict.
