King Reports On Impressions Gained By Tour

BY 1?, K CARNEGIE Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, June 23 —fCPCable)

—The King today told a distin- guished audience at the Guildhall his deepest impression after his 15,000-mile North American tour was “that even in this age of machines and mass production the strength of human feeling still is the most potent of all forces of- fecting world affairs."

Reporting on his visit to an un- medlate audience of 700 that in- cluded leaders of hLs aovemmcw. and his senior military and civic officials, andto theworld at large broadcast, the King stated that will be a source of thankful- ness to us all our lives long if we have in some sort succeeded“ in the objecis he and Queen Eliza- beth set out to fulfill.

The desire to serve the ideals of the British Commonwealth of Nations, “to foster its sane and wholesome faith, to show. could, that its headship, which I have been called upon to assume, exists today as a potent force for promoting peace and ood-will a- mong mankind." were, e said. the objects he and his consort had be- fore them.

He hoped the tour might "be of some importance in its influence. on the Empire's future destiny, and said that he felt the enthusi- asm with lot: Their Majesties were greeted by Oansdtens was not- oniv personal but "also an ex-

resslon of their thankfulness for

ose rights of free citizenship which are the herila 9 of every member of our gres Common- wealth of Nations."
