Recrimination Useless

Mr. Winston Churchill asserted that recrimination or controversy were at present useless, harmful and wrong.

"What is done is done," he cried. "What is left undone belongs to his- tory, where I shall leave it."

"No sovereign has ever conformed so strongly or so faithfully to the letter and spirit of the constitution than King Edward, who voluntarity made sacrifices for the peace and sirength of his realm far beyond the bounds required by the law and the constitution.

After paying the warmest tribute to the King's qualities, Mr. Churchill concluded:

Fortify The Throne "Although our hopes to-day- withered, the King's personality will not go down uncherished to the future ages, and he will be pari- cularly remembered in the homes of his poorer subjects.

"We must now fortify the Throne, and give His Majesty's successor the strength that will only come from the love of a united nation and

Empire.

Mr. James Maxton shared the human sympathies of the House of Commons-with-His Majesty the King in recent weeks, and also with the Premier, Mr. Stanley Baldwin, who had had to shoulder a difficult task which few, if an Premiers had had to shoulder before.

Lord Halifax, speaking for the Government, Lord Snell for Labour, Lord Crewe for the Liberals and the Archbishop of Canterbury for the Church, expressed deep regret at the King's decision and sympathy with Mr. Baldwin, the Queen and the.
