<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We thank the Almighty for enabling us all to
observe the 40th anniversary of Our Coronation, for blessing the services We
have rendered to Ethiopia since We acceded to the throne of Our forefathers
through His will and the wishes of Our beloved people and for safeguarding the
peace of our nation.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The death after a long illness of His Holiness
Abuna Basilios, who was with Us in times of triumph and trial, has grieved our
people deeply. A great man, blessed with divine grace and spiritual power, His
Holiness has constantly prayed for the well-being of his flock in particular
and for world peace and security in general. The loss of our religious leader
this year is indeed great; however, we shall always cherish his memory through
the lofty and memorable deeds our spiritual father has left behind him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ever since We assumed the heavy mantle of
leadership, the basic structure of our government, including the constitution
and the development programmes that We drew up for the nation, have opened the
road to progress for our people and are presently leading them satisfactorily
along the charted path.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our people have, with the time and the means at
their disposal, never desisted from participating in various development
projects that are bound to enhance their progress without disturbing the spirit
of their long-standing freedom and unity which they have maintained with great
vigilance. We have been encouraged by the diligence of our youth in the pursuit
of, and their brilliance in mastering higher education. Last year our
government achieved major projects in the economic, social and political
fields. Many development plans are proposed for this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To bring about a rational change in the lives of
our people, various projects are being launched and accomplished which may
perhaps not be readily obvious to a casual observer. However, in accordance
with the Third Five-Year development Plan the Imperial Ethiopian Government, in
conjunction with various private institutions and agencies, has continued to
expand its work to improve the living conditions of Our people in fields like
education, agriculture, industry, mining, highways, air and marine
communications, electric light and power and water resources.</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Preliminary Studies</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In efforts being made by Ethiopia to develop her
natural resources, it is evident that the making of thorough preliminary
studies of the tasks to be later undertaken is indispensable. For this reason
vast sums of money were spent last year in carrying out studies on the
development of the country’s mineral and hydrological resources. In accordance
with plans drawn up to utilize the formerly wasted waters of the outflowing
rivers of the country by conducting studies on them with the help of friendly
nations with a view to harnessing their power, the potentialities of the Wabi
Shebelle, like those of the Awash and the Abbay in the past, are now under
investigation. Similarly, the potentialities of the Tekezie river in the field
of hydro-electricity and irrigation farming are being studied in accordance
with plans drawn up to utilise the resources of other rivers and lakes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When the project materialises following the
completion of these preliminary studies on this river, the hydro-electric needs
of the people of the northern provinces will be fully met. Surveys to utilise
the resources of the Omo River are also being conducted. Likewise, the
necessary survey stations have been established with the view to carrying out
studies on ways and means of utilising the resources of the lakes of the Rift
Valley for the development of the country. Water drilling operations have been
intensified in arid areas like the Ogaden, Borena, Issa, Yerer-Kereyu and
Haikotch and Butajira to alleviate the water problems of the people by making
sufficient appropriations for these and other rural water resources development
schemes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Legadadi dam which we will inaugurate
tomorrow, constructed at a total cost of about Ethiopian $35 million, will go a
long way to alleviate the water shortage of our capital city. The Mai Nefhi Dam
costing Ethiopian $10 million will be completed within the next few months to
meet the water needs of the city of Asmara.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To provide towns in our Empire with sufficient
electricity and to improve the existing facilities in order to provide enough
light and power to meet the existing needs and to provide for future industrial
establishments, considerable investment was made last year. Among the projects
nearing completion is the Fincha Hydroelectric Power Plant. Provincial centres
like Gondar and Jimma have been also provided with self-contained electric
stations to meet the needs of their inhabitants. Other rural centers, now not
enjoying the benefits of electric light, will this year begin to be provided
with electricity following the completion of studies for the establishment of
additional power stations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Especially today it is more than self-evident to
what extent the speedy betterment of the living conditions of man and the
augmentation of the wealth and economic power of a society are based on the
utilisation of mineral resources. The search for minerals is being conducted by
the Ministry of Mines in Eritrea, Beghiemdir and Tigre, in Wollega, Sidamo,
Illubabor, Kaffa and Gamu Gofa with additional funds secured from friendly
governments and the United Nations Development Fund, since it was realised that
our government had to make the necessary preliminary studies to determine the
kind and extent of our mineral wealth. From the exploration so far made there
were some promising signs of subterranean wealth in some parts of the country
and the government has entered into agreement with a number of big foreign
firms to prospect for these minerals in Hararghie and Bale and along the
sea-coast and the sea-bed in Eritrea. Already work on these projects is
proceeding in a satisfactory manner.</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;">Mineral Rights</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As it may be recalled, legislation on prospecting
for minerals which will safeguard the rights of foreign investors, those
present and those who come to participate in the development of the country,
was discussed and passed by Parliament. When the Bill becomes law and the
regulations governing its execution are promulgated, We are of the belief that
it will assist greatly in the development of Ethiopia’s mineral resources.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We had brought to your attention last year that a
draft legislation to improve the system of land administration was to be
presented to you. As this important legislation affects the lives of the
majority of our people and should therefore be prepared with the utmost care,
it had not been possible to present the draft legislation for your deliberation
last year since additional time for careful study was required. We had reminded
you in the past that in certain ways the philosophy of Ethiopia’s land administration
differs from that current abroad. In principle it is known that there is enough
arable land in Ethiopia for our people. From studies so far carried out it has
been discovered that only a small part of this land has been developed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The full utilisation of land already developed on
modern lines, the regulation of landlord-tenant relations and the definition of
the rights of land ownership have been given priority in the third five-year
development plan, and to this effect a draft legislation which embodies some
beneficial elements from our traditional land tenure is being prepared. This
draft legislation will be prepared in such a way as to harmonise the
family-like relations between landlords and tenants by safeguarding the common
and individual rights of everyone and by removing the causes of friction over
land. We believe that for a country like Ethiopia, heavily dependent on
agriculture for its livelihood, the proclamation of this law and the measures
proposed are bound to stimulate the people to work together harmoniously and
thereby speed up the country’s pace of development.”</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Land Administration</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529178181">When God created the
earth for man it was for its use and not for its misuse. </a>This is why
Parliament should realise the importance of the revised draft legislation on
land administration. We urge you to deliberate on it with utmost care and
speed, since the primary aim of this law is to improve the living conditions of
Our people.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As We mentioned earlier, the improvements We are
making from time to time with regard to the system of land administration are
designed in such a way as to enable Our people to work peacefully together and
make good use of the land blessed and given to them by God.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“It has been so often said that agriculture,
including animal husbandry, is the backbone of the country’s economy.
Educational programmes and projects directed towards the modernisation and
mechanisation of Ethiopian agriculture have been organised and in effect for a
long time. We understand very well that agriculture yields satisfactory results
when tackled through modern science and technology and not when done in
traditional fashion.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Insufficient annual harvests could lead to
hunger. For instance, the problems encountered almost everywhere last year due
to the shortage of grain have been a matter of grave concern to every home. We
advise Our people to explore ways and means of expanding agricultural
production through individual or co-operative enterprise by utilising existing
educational facilities and by securing credits from banks established to
encourage the development of farming. It is Our hope that every citizen in the
Empire who doesn’t own land will acquire his own land and since assistance is
necessary to help the people establish themselves, We are confident that this
assistance will be made available so that none of the land will lie fallow.”</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Education</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is a matter well known to you that much effort
has been so far put into the expansion of education – the proven instrument for
the social and economic well-being of Our people. The time has passed when we
had to cajole parents to send their children to school. the fact that the
people are now seen working side by side with the government for the expansion
of education by contributing what they can, provides ample evidence that the
attitude of parents has undergone a change for the better. Those who have been
educated in the various fields at home an abroad are contributing greatly in
all the endeavours to reach Our cherished goals. When you members of Parliament
were discussing the 1963 government budget, you were in particular deliberating
on ways and means of finding new sources of revenue for the development of
education. The fact that you had promptly passed the bill presented to you for
levying additional education taxes to alleviate the problem shows how much you
were preoccupied with this national issue.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is the wish and the desire of all that
education should expand fast and reach the length and breadth of the country,
and for this to be achieved, it is indispensable that financial resources be
readily available. The demand for education is doubling every year. On the
other hand, the capacity to extend educational opportunities is always
determined by available funds. Thus, to accelerate the tempo at which education
is expanding, the people must continue in the path of strengthening the spirit of
cooperation with the government.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529178535">Technical education
should not be looked down upon as not befitting one’s dignity when it prepares
one for such jobs as farming, carpentry and masonry. If education is to promote
the progress of the nation, it must be coupled with the desire to do useful and
creative work which is not only confined to clerical or administrative jobs. An
educated person can benefit his society when he shows beneficial results
without discriminating between jobs.</a></div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Health</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since it is the fundamental responsibility of our
government to safeguard the health of our people, a lot more was achieved last
year in promoting the physical well-being of the nation. Some hospitals and
many clinics have been opened at considerable expense and are now operating
normally. In accordance with provisions made to establish a self-sufficient
health service in every Governorate-general depending on the availability of
funds and skilled medical personnel as well as giving priority to the
eradication of malaria, 16 health centres were established in rural areas at
the beginning of last year. Likewise, 46 new health stations are expected to be
built this year and to become operational in 1964.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a result of the thorough studies made of the
areas affected by malaria and identification of the season when the scourge
becomes prevalent, and in accordance with the malaria eradication programme to
rid Ethiopia completely of the disease, it has been possible to protect over
nine million people last year against infection or recurrence of the disease.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In like manner, preventive measures have been
taken to control epidemic diseases like cholera which erupt and affect the
lives of people.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The country, blessed and bequeathed to the
Ethiopian people, is extensive and richly endowed. In area the country is
ample. There is scope for Ethiopians to become both employers and the employed,
since development projects are distributed widely over the country. As there
are places like Setit-Humera where extensive agricultural projects are
proceeding and where employment opportunities are available for tens of
thousands of people, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529178834">to congregate and remain idle in
big cities is to harm both oneself and one’s country.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529178901">Helping the disabled and
the physically handicapped is part of our traditional moral duty. </a>Even
today our people are performing their charitable acts by sharing part of what
they have with the disabled. An institution is now to be established by the
Ministry of National Community Development and Social Welfare to coordinate and
administer charitable funds obtained both nationally and from foreign sources
with a view to helping the disabled.</div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529178986">There are immense
opportunities for work in Ethiopia for everybody.</a> It is now some time since
new investment legislation was proclaimed with a view to encouraging the inflow
of foreign capital. However, the capital inflow abroad has not been up to Our
expectation. One of the facets of Ethiopian policy in its relations with
friendly foreign governments is to widen the avenue of mutual economic
co-operation. we thus renew our invitation to all friendly industrialised
nations to participate in our development programme through their public and
private capital. The constitutional framework of the Ethiopian Government receives
its stability from its pattern of history and tradition. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529179065">In
order to predict the future of Ethiopian events one should familiarise oneself
with the history and culture of the people and nation.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Members of the armed forces and the police are
each, in their particular fields, discharging their duties satisfactorily in
the maintenance of law and order throughout the country so that the economic
development of Ethiopia continues in the right direction. Members of the armed
forces have shown exemplary results since they began participating in civilian
activities directed towards the progress and development of the country.”</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Noted O.A.U. Summit</span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"></span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the main events in the political field is
the recent meeting here in Our capital of the Heads of State and Government of
the Organization of African Unity. The Summit conference discussed various
matters of common interest and passed the necessary resolutions. One of the
reasons why the recent meeting was called a conference of reconciliation was
that the difference between Nigeria and some independent African states was
resolved in a spirit of brotherly understanding, the continent’s bond of unity
and solidarity was preserved, and this was proclaimed to the whole world.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Africans have realized more than ever before that
it is through the Organization of African Unity that they can attain their
unity and solidarity which is the central pillar of the continent’s well-being
and freedom.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The spirit of friendship and understanding among
independent African countries has been steadily growing stronger from year to
year. In particular the border agreement signed recently between Ethiopia and
the neighbouring friendly country of Kenya has not only reinforced the
long-standing fraternal relations between the two nations but has also set a
good example to others.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When President Kenneth Kaunda and Lady Kaunda
paid a state visit to our capital upon the invitation extended to them by Us we
discussed in detail relations between the two countries in particular and
international peace and security in general.</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">International Friendships</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In addition to strengthening its ties of
friendship with other African countries as usual, Ethiopia has been also
expanding relations with the countries of America, Europe and Asia. Upon
invitations extended to them by Us, H.E. President Cevedet Sunay of Turkey,
H.E. President Jossip Broz Tito of Yugoslavia, His Majesty King Frederick and
Her Majesty Queen Ingrid of Denmark, have paid state visits to Ethiopia. We
have also held talks with His Beatitude Patriarch Nicolaos of the Greek
Orthodox Church of Alexandria and All Africa, H.E. President Bedel Bokassa of
Central African Republic, His Highness Crown Prince Carl Gustav of Sweden, H.E.
Prime Minister Burnham of Guyana, H.E. Secretary of State William Rogers of the
U.S., and H.E. Foreign Minister Aldo Moro of Italy in the course of their
visits to the capital.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
During the visits of these world leaders and
high-ranking officials We were able to exchange views on bilateral relations
and ways and means of promoting world peace, progress and prosperity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We have held important and useful talks with Mr.
McNamara, President of the World Bank, on ways of further expanding the
participation of the World Bank in the country’s development programmes. Mr. McNamara,
who visited Ethiopia for some four days on a special invitation extended to him
by Us, had toured the sites of the various development projects undertaken with
loans secured from the World Bank prior to this exchange of views.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We have also paid state visits to Japan, the
Soviet Union, France and the United Arab Republic upon invitations extended to
Us by these friendly governments. During our visit to Moscow, We discussed with
President Podgorny and other high-ranking Soviet officials matters pertaining
to political, economic and cultural relations between the two countries as well
as exchanging views on the world political scene. A high-level economic
delegation was recently sent to the Soviet Union to finalise matters on which
agreement was reached during Our visit. We are hopeful that the talks We held
with President Pompidou of France on relations between our two countries in
particular and world peace in general will have fruitful results.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ethiopia has been able successfully to acquaint visitors
with its ancient cultural history and various aspects of its modern development
by participating in Expo ’70 held in Osaka, Japan. By personally attending the
Expo ’70 “Ethiopia Day” ceremonies and thereby exchanging views with prominent
Japanese businessmen and industrialists, We have been able to talk to them
about the particular fields in which they can usefully participate in the
development of our country.</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">The Lusaka Conference</span></b><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"></span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By attending the conference of non-aligned
countries in Lusaka recently, We had an extensive exchange of views with other
leaders on effective ways of strengthening world peace. In particular the
proposals We had presented with regard to the freedom of our brothers
languishing under the yoke of racialism in South Africa and South West Africa
have been accepted by the conference.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The continued denial of fundamental freedom to,
and the oppressive racial domination of, the peoples of South Africa, Namibia,
Zimbabwe, Angola, Mozambique and Portuguese Guinea by the racialist regimes in
Southern Africa poses a threat to world peace. To illustrate the oppression
under which these people live, it is enough to cite the cause of the wives of
Nelson Mandela and other African freedom fighters over whose trial the
tyrannical South African Government has not only made a mockery of its own laws
but has also trampled under foot the principles of international law.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By attending the 10th anniversary of Nigeria’s
independence celebrations in Lagos which saw the end of the civil war in that
country and the restoration of the people’s unity, we have been able to
reaffirm to General Gowon that Nigeria’s peace and unity can always count on
the support of Ethiopia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After Our visit to Lagos We proceeded to Cairo to
attend the funeral of Our close friend the late President Nasser and to share
in the nation’s grief. Africans in general and Arabs in particular have lost a
great leader through the untimely death of President Nasser.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529179812">By going to the
headquarters of the United Nations and attending the Silver Jubilee
celebrations, We seized the opportunity to reaffirm Ethiopia’s full support for
the world organization – the last hope for the security and welfare of mankind.
Going there also gave us a chance to reiterate the principles which We advocated
at the discarded League of Nations when the fascist forces in unprovoked
aggression invaded Ethiopia. Had these principles been accepted, the world
would have been saved from the Second World War and the United Nations can
avoid meeting the same fate as its predecessor by observing these principles in
order to maintain international peace, security and the well-being of mankind. </a>We
also seized the opportunity to hold high-level and fruitful talks with
President Richard Nixon on bilateral and African questions and, in general, on
world issues.</div>
<h4 align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-themecolor: text1;">Political Conflicts</span></b></h4>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529181221">When we view the general
international situation, we realize that the number of innocent lives lost as a
result of political conflicts prevailing in the world as well as hunger and
disease have not decreased. If men were working sincerely and in concert for
the promotion of world peace and progress, this problem would have been solved.
We had often expressed the belief that since the Great Powers possess both the
wealth and the might they have a special responsibility to eliminate the
political ills affecting mankind. Have the Great Powers exerted enough efforts
to assume this heavy responsibility? Have they done enough in pooling their
resources for the benefit of the whole of mankind? What has been done for those
who have been shorn of their fundamental human rights and are being subjected
to inhuman and oppressive laws? History is waiting for answers to these
questions.</a></div>
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk529181221;"></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In this age of transition, characterized by
rising expectations, the burden of leadership is heavier, all the more because
leaders are a link between the past and the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is well known that from the time that We
assumed the responsibility of guiding the destiny of Our country by accession
to the Throne of Our forefathers, We based the government on its three main
branches – the Executive, the Legislative and the Judicial. Since the functions
of each branch of the government are defined in the constitution, the
separation of their powers must be strictly observed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today the tasks to be undertaken in various
fields of national endeavour are not only becoming more complex but more
pressing in character each day. It is for this reason that each one should
fulfill his duties and shoulder his responsibilities with industry and
enthusiasm so that the tasks undertaken will be satisfactorily executed. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529181305">Working and thinking for the common good are dictated by
the times in which we live and are indispensable for the progress and
development of a country.</a></div>
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk529181305;"></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk529181413">Parliamentary deliberation
demands attentive listening, mutual comprehension, profound and far-sighted
vision, understanding and the ability to convince in an orderly manner. Mature
views based on inquiry and supported by good morals and self-discipline, apart
from producing the desired results, will protect one from making errors or
being judged wrongly by others.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk529181413;">Inquiry
is a magical power that opens the door to hidden rewards and must be pursued
calmly, diligently and intelligently to achieve this goal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk529181413;">May the
Almighty bless the services you render your country following this spirit and
aim.</span></div>

of the House of Deputies: </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Ever
since the establishment of the Government of Ethiopia, there has not been any
appropriate parliament. We have now established a parliament which will stay
and properly function for many years to come. We have declared this chamber as
the House of Deputies and We have called upon you to deliberate as
representatives of the people. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">We
have done this, guided by a strong motivation granted Us by Almighty God to
work for the further progress of Our country and so that you may assist Us in
the Just administration of Our Government by providing Us advice, that will
fully benefit Our people. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk528924094"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Until now, there was nobody eager to understand the
problems of other places, other than within the confines of his own birthplace.
As a result, the individual’s views and opinions about others were too shallow.
But from now on, all of you must open your eyes and broaden your views and
knowledge. </span></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk528924094;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">You must know and understand that besides
your own birthplace, there are others next to you, and that besides your own
cities, there are others around you, and that all these places and cities
together make one big nation and those living in it are all sons and daughters
of one Ethiopia and that these people from time immemorial lived as one family
and one people thus being members of the greater family of man. You must,
therefore, realize that besides issues concerning your own birthplace there are
greater issues concerning all provinces and all families which, when put
together, are of common interest to all, and that the protector of these common
interests is the Government while the Emperor is the source of enlightenment to
all. </span></span></div>
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk528924094;"></span>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk528924213"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">It is in this realization
that you can co-operate among yourselves for the sake of your unity. On Our
part, We have long thought to assist your work as much as We could and We are
fully determined to carry on this and to guide you in all spheres of
co-operative works. In Our opinion, a nation, without co-operation, is like a
heap of sand. We have called upon you representatives, selected from the
provinces, to come to the capital city so that in getting closer to Us you may
help advise Us on everything good for the unity of Ethiopia. Your get-together
like this will enable you to know each other, to discuss your respective
cultures and problems and, to discover your common interests or common
obstacles, and to learn fully the administration of the Government. And
finally, you will realize that you all belong to one family and that you are
sons and daughters of Ethiopia. And then you must understand to love your
mother and, as brothers, to love each other, and when you return to your
respective provinces you will relate what experiences, broad knowledge, and
greater views you gained here, to your fellow promote a good and brotherly
spirit throughout Our country. </span></a></div>
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk528924213;"></span>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Later,
in the future, when Our people will be sufficiently educated, they will be able
to elect and send their own representatives, and when they in turn learn how to
properly execute their responsibilities, they will be of great assistance to
Our Government. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">The
experiences you gain from your co-operative work will also assist the future
representatives. As the price of honesty will be paid to the blessed sons of
God so shall We lead Our people gradually to honest gain and prosperity. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk528924300"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Honesty means not to oppress anybody and deny him his deserved
share. It does not mean being irresponsible or conceited and dictatorial. We,
on Our part, will never cease to eliminate conceitedness, oppression,
subversion and corruption in order to maintain peace and national security. </span></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk528924300;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">May God help you to understand and always
bear in mind all that We have said! May He enlighten you! May He inspire your
goodwill and initiative so that you may be able to produce fruits which would
be beneficial to Our generation! </span></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">….. As
the young men who have received advanced training in law return from abroad in
ever-increasing numbers, and as modern legal codes come into force in Ethiopia,
we must act to reform and modernize Ethiopia’s judiciary. This particular
responsibility has been confided to the Judicial Committee. It is labouring to
improve Ethiopia’s judicial system so that speedy and impartial justice will be
guaranteed to all. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk528922352">All men stand equal before the law.
All men must be able to enforce their legal rights before the courts.</a> The
Judicial Committee is seeking to achieve these objectives, and to create a
system whereby judges will be appointed from among those best qualified, and
the principle of the independence of the judiciary, already established in the
Revised Constitution, will be fully implemented in practice ….. </span></div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_Hlk528917818"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">….. A step which, We are persuaded, will stand as a landmark in
Ethiopia’s history is the enactment in recent weeks of urgently required labour
legislation. The newly-promulgated Labour Relations Law and Public Employment
Administration Order have been carefully prepared for the declared purposes of
stimulating a better way of life for the workers of Our Empire and of promoting
social harmony and content amongst all classes of Our people. If we meet the
challenge which this legislation represents and, through it, fulfil the needs
of an increasingly-enlightened society, these enactments will make an
incalculable contribution to Ethiopia’s future economic and social expansion. </span></a></div>

<span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk528917818;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">A nation’s
goals in any field of endeavour require, for their achievement, the combined
efforts of all parts of its society, and, not least, of the entrepreneurial and
labouring classes. The employer-employee relationship, in turn, must be based
on sound and fair labour conditions. The Labour Relations Law will ensure that
these exist. In addition, this law provides the mechanism for the settlement of
disputes between employers and by peaceful negotiations. Recourse to the
technique of collective bargaining will solve before they are created those difficulties
which arise when labour and eployers come into conflict. Collective bargaining
will require from both employers and employees, and from the employers’
associations and labour unions which they are authorized and empowered to
create to represent them, a high degree of maturity and responsibility, as well
as mutual respect and recognition of the other’s rights. We expect that these
attitudes will be manifested fully in their dealings with one another ….. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">In
1955, persuaded that events so required and so permitted, We promulgated a
Revised Constitution. By virtue of this document a popularly-elected Chamber of
Deputies today sits in Parliament and participates in the regulation of the
affairs of their country. And this year, as has already been announced, broad
and far-reaching studies have been launched to sweep away any obstacles which
still stand in the way of further growth which, God willing, will proceed unabated
until all Ethiopians stand proudly as citizens of a State which will not suffer
by comparison with any on this continent or in this world, a State in which
each man enjoys, without let or hindrance, those rights and liberties which are
man’s most precious possessions. We shall devote Our entire being to this
purpose, and We call upon each Ethiopian to take for himself this same pledge. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Within the past months, We have convened a number of
special committees and have charged them with the task of exploring ways and
means of speeding the development of Our nation in various fields. The work of
these committees is proceeding rapidly, and the results of their deliberations
and the recommendations which they make will be made known to you and, if
required, you will be asked to act on them. The Committee on Constitutional
Revision is to study the 1955 Revised Constitution and determine whether there
is need to amend it in order that the system of responsible ministerial
government which We have created, deliberately and of Our own free will, may be
rendered more efficient and effective. Government today in Ethiopia has
attained such magnitude that no single man nor any few men can control its
every aspect and operation. Responsibility must be increasingly delegated to
those who have demonstrated themselves efficient and devoted administrators.
You, the members of Parliament, must take an ever-increasing part in government.
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">The
Committee on Administrative Reform is undertaking a task which must be
discharged periodically in all developed nations, that of analyzing the form
and institutions of government so that its working may be simplified. The
Committee on Local Government is exploring the possibility of granting an
increased measure of autonomy to local administrations within the unified
provincial administration which already exists. Decentralization is required as
administration grows in size and complexity. The Committee on Education is
seeking the means of expanding Ethiopia’s existing educational facilities so
that they may adequately meet the increasing demands being made – and properly
so – for instruction in the learning and wisdom of the modern world. Other
committees may, perhaps, have more immediate impact upon the course of events
in Ethiopia; the work of none of them will be of greater importance in
influencing, over the long term, this country’s future. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: center; text-autospace: none;">
<b><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Pension And Civil Service </span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: center; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">...The
first is the enactment of a pension law whereby Government employees who have
devoted themselves to the service of their nation will be assured, when the
time comes, that they may enjoy the leisure which the modern world denies
during man’s active years, of continued financial independence. Man’s
ingratitude to man is often manifested in the willingness to relegate human
beings to the scrapheap of life when they enter the twilight of their careers
and younger brains and stronger arms are found to replace them. This has,
happily, never been the case in Our nation, and with the establishment of a
Government pensions scheme, these rights, traditional to Ethiopia, are
preserved and expanded. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Secondly, by Imperial
Order We have, only a few days ago, established the legal framework for a
public service system which will govern the hiring, promotion, dismissal and
discipline of the great majority of government employees. This legislative act,
which formalizes a custom followed in practice in the past, will facilitate the
creation of a corps of career public servants who may devote themselves without
stint to their duties, to the exclusion of personal or special preoccupations. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">These
two enactments are epoch-making in Ethiopian history; their significance cannot
be over-emphasized. They may, at the outset, be administered less than
perfectly. The full measure of their impact upon the carrying on of responsible
government in Ethiopia may not be immediately felt. But impact there shall be.
Henceforward, each employee will know of the conditions of his service. He will
know what he must do to be considered for employment with the Government and
what conditions he must meet to be enrolled in Government service. He will know
that if he performs efficiently and well he will be promoted, and that if he
slacks or shirks his duties or abuses his position for his personal financial
gain, he will be disciplined and even discharged. He will be aware of his
duties, his rights and obligations. He will be secure in his position for so
long as he serves ably and well. And after having served his nation loyally,
when he is old, or sick, or feeble, he will be guaranteed his pension to the
end of his life. Upon his death, his wife, his children, even his parents, may enjoy
the benefits to which his years in Government service have entitled him. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Both the pension scheme and the public service system
will be administered by autonomous bodies headed by an independent Board of
Commissioners. The fundamental task of these Commissioners, in addition to
administering the organizations which they head, is to ensure that no outside
influence is involved in awarding pensions and in directing the public service
system. If freedom from political influence is achieved, every Ethiopian will
know that public servants hold their positions by virtue of merit and worth,
and that retired Government employees have earned their pensions by years of
faithful and devoted service. </span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">ON STRENGTHENING THE NATION’S </span></b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;"></span></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">POLITCAL FABRIC </span></b></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">…..
Throughout Our life time, We have always unceasingly sought an ever-increasing
degree of participation by Our people in the conduct of the nation’s affairs.
In 1931, when We granted Ethiopia’s first written Constitution, We were
motivated by this desire. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">In
1955, We paved the way for an even deeper and wider involvement of Our people
in the direction of the affairs of their country. The Revised Constitution
which We promulgated then is both the basis for and an immutable manifestation
of the unity of the Ethiopian nation. The presence of you Parliamentarians here
today testifies to the wisdom of those steps. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">This
past year, two additional measures have been taken to accelerate this process
and insure the country’s future political stability and growth. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The first, and perhaps the most significant political
development of recent years, occurred only eight months ago. We then announced
that the principle of collective responsibility embedded in Ethiopia’s
constitutional framework would be enlarged by the designation by Us of Our
Prime Minister who would, in turn, select his cabinet for appointment by Us. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">This
innovation, coupled with the principle of Parliamentary responsibility
enunciated in the 1955 Constitution, prepares the way for the introduction of a
totally new series of modifications into Ethiopia’s institutional framework and
guarantees the continued dynamic evolution of the nation’s political structure.
</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">We
are convinced that this step, taken in accordance with the nation’s
Constitution, will inject new strength into the political framework of the
nation, and that the permanence of the advances already accomplished will be
secured. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
first consequence of this major reshaping of Ethiopia’s political framework may
already be seen. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">In
order to emphasize and give full scope to the priority of co-ordinated economic
planning, a separate Ministry charged with wide responsibilities in this field
has been established, and work has already been commenced on the preparation of
a Third Five-Year Plan. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Land
reform and administration, an area deserving of the highest consideration, has
been confided to another new Ministry created at the time of the reorganization
of Our Government in April. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Responsibility
for social affairs has been consolidated under the direction of the Ministry of
National Community Development and Social Affairs. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Information
and tourism functions have been combined in a single Ministry in order that
fuller and more complete publicity may be given to the many varied aspects of
Ethiopia’s life and activities. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">The institutions
earlier created to assure that all Public Servants would receive the
recognition which their work has earned for them and that they may look to
their future security with confidence have now been consolidated in a single
agency.</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The Ministry of Public Works has been given the
special task of ensuring that adequate provision is made for the furnishing of
housing, an increasingly important requirement in these days of rapid
urbanization. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">All
of these changes have been carefully considered before their introduction. They
will assist in insuring the efficient and effective conduct of the affairs of
Our Government and the proper discharge of Our duties to the Ethiopian nation
and people. </span></div>
<div class="Default">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Local Self-Administration </span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
second of these vital political measures was initiated several years ago when
studies were launched into one of the most significant and critical exercises
in national political growth yet attempted in Ethiopia. This work matured in
the scheme of local administration based at the Awraja level introduced by Our
Order only a short time ago. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">This
vast project has slowly taken form through years of painstaking research and
profound examination of the needs, the beliefs, the aspirations and the
capacities of every segment of the entire population. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">As
this programme is implemented, major responsibilities in many areas of pressing
concern to each individual and community throughout the nation will be
entrusted to locally elected Awraja Councils. Council members will be chosen in
formal elections. The judgment and discretion of the Ethiopian people will be
tested as never before, as a large portion of the decisions shaping their
economic and social life become their responsibility. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="margin-top: 3.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Pending before this session of Parliament is the draft
Proclamation dealing with Awraja local revenues which will give final substance
to the form already devised for this great and crucial experiment in
government. You should act upon this proposal as a matter of urgency in order
that this immense programme, so vital to every man, woman and child in
Ethiopia, may proceed on schedule. Other financial legislation of vital
importance to the nation will also be laid before you in the coming year. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
sum of all the developments we have described are consistent, We believe, with
the basic policy of Our Government, a policy which is aimed at the adoption and
implementation of national programmes having the greatest impact upon the
largest number. This is our goal and purpose, as it should be the goal and
purpose of every Government sincerely and deeply devoted to the well-being of
its people. </span></div>
<div class="Default">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">National Dedication </span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
system of responsible cabinet government placed in effect last March endeavours
to bring to each member of Our Government a more immediate and lively awareness
of his responsibilities for sharing in the total task of governing the nation
and, below him, to encourage each Government official and employee to discharge
more effectively the greater measure of the authority which has been delegated
throughout Our Government’s structure. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">The
increased emphasis placed upon development planning is intended to produce
ever-increasing economic activity at every level of the economy down to the
smallest village and community. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Land
reform measures are calculated to affect and improve the living conditions of
literally millions of Ethiopia. The introduction of a widespread system of
local administration is directed to the involvement of substantial numbers of Our
people in the conduct and regulation of their public affairs. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Our concern is with the many and not the few. The
benefits of education must be enjoyed by every Ethiopian. Health facilities
must be made available to all who require them. The ownership of a plot of land
must be brought within the capacity of everyone who so desires. The benefits of
an expanding economy must be enjoyed by all. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">It
is Our task and responsibility, as it is of Our Government, to transform these
objectives into coherent, acceptable and realistic legislative and financial
programmes and to see to their accomplishment. If this is done, the duty owed
to the Ethiopian nation and people will be discharged. To succeed will require
the single-minded, tenacious and unselfish dedication of each one of us ….. </span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">MODERN ETHIOPIANISM </span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">….. Annually, on this day, when We celebrate the
Anniversary of Our Coronation, We have convened the Senate and the Chamber of
Deputies, assembled in joint session, as they take up their work for the coming
year. Today, there are gathered together before Us the members of the second
Parliament convened since the Revised Consti-tution was promulgated six years
ago. Included among you are the newly-elected Deputies, chosen by the people in
free elections held during the past months. Those men who preceded you have set
a high example. Recorded on the statute books of the Empire are the Penal,
Civil, Commercial and Maritime Codes, each a monumental work in its right, all
promulgated after careful study by them. During their term of office, over a
score of major laws, touching all aspects of Ethiopia’s affairs, have been
enacted. Take up where they left off, emulate them, build on the foundation
which they have laid down, that your nation may advance in progress and
enlightenment ….. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Programme</span></b></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">….. The programmes of the
Government for the present year have already been placed into force at the
beginning of the fiscal year on 1st Hamle last. They were studied and approved
by the Parliament which completed its session four months ago, and the budget
required to imple-ment them has been enacted into law. It is the Government’s
intention that increased publicity be given to its programmes in order that the
public may know not only their broad out- lines but their details as well. A
well-informed public opinion is essential to the growth of political and social
awareness. Only he who is informed can comment intelligently on his nation’s
development and only by such comment can errors be corrected and progress
stimulated ….. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">….. When, decades ago, We turned Ethiopia’s face in
the direction of progress and modernity, We were secure in the knowledge that
in so doing We best served Our country and its people. We recognized then, as
We do today, that once embarked upon this course there could be no turning
back. Ethiopia was committed to the future and to whatever it might bring. Man
may, at the outset, control the direction which events take, but once his
choice is made, events soon escape his control and history proceeds by its own
force and momentum. When We promulgated Ethiopia’s first Constitution thirty
years ago, over the determined oppo-sition of many who were close to Us, We
realized, and it was Our intention, that the political development of Our
nation would be accelerated. We knew that Ethiopia would soon outgrow the
limited confines of that document. At that time, Ethiopia’s government was
simple and uncomplicated, but We knew that as Our nation emerged into the
modern world, its governmental framework would inevitably be transformed into a
complex and intricate structure. We were prepared for and We sought to speed
that transformation. </span></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Modern System </span></b></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">Following
the liberation of Our nation in 1941, We created a coherent and modern system
of government. Government departments were established, each with its defined
sphere of jurisdiction. A sound provincial adminis-tration was formed, in order
that Ethiopia might become a more closely knit and unified entity. As the
nation develop-ed and grew, We endeavoured to assure that the organization and
pattern of government kept pace. The full extent of the nation’s achievements
during these years will be apparent to all who, objectively and honestly,
survey their history ….. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">….. The ultimate resource of a nation is its people.
Unless this resource is employed for the benefit of the nation, unless the
latent good which it represents is exploited to the maximum extent for the
common good, the nation will languish, poor in spirit, lacking in achievement.
But no people can make their full contribution to the life of the nation to
which they owe allegiance unless they possess and enjoy those few fundamental
prerequisites indispensable to rendering their participation in the affairs of
their country both possible and significant. The growth of a people is complex
and inter-related. Man must be educated: he can-not come to grips with or cope
with or understand the modern world unless he has been taught about it. He must
be assured of a minimum economic security: he cannot con-cern himself with
matters going beyond the day-to-day satis-faction of his physical needs unless
he is fed and clothed and sheltered, nor can he acquire a sufficient degree of
social consciousness to be able to subordinate his own personal interests to
the good of the nation and the development of its society. Freedom, Liberty,
the rights of man – these mean little to the ignorant, the hungry, the
ill-clothed, the badly-housed. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">

<div align="center" class="Default" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">True representatives</span></b></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 11.5pt;">All
of this We have, from Our earliest days, recognized, and in the years during
which We have guided and directed the destinies of the Ethiopian people and
nation, We have endeavoured to accommodate and give due consideration to this
basic truth. To you, the legislators of the Empire, has been confided the high
responsibility of ensuring that the needs and the desires of those who chose
you as their repre-sentatives are well and truly served in the legislative
pro-grammes which will be placed before you. You must ensure that in your
desire to achieve, immediate goals, long-term considerations of equal or
greater importance are not ignored or irrevocably prejudiced. Those who will
prepare your Government’s programmes will do so honestly and sincerely, seeking
thereby to secure the further progress of Ethiopia and her people. But you, as
well as they, share in the res-ponsibility for guaranteeing that this progress
is not only apparent but real, and that each step forward paves the way for the
next. May Almighty God grant you wisdom, under-standing and judgment .... </span><br />

in life. Especially those vibrations / frequencies that we absorb not
necessarily through our eyes but mainly through our other senses through
listening, feeling, smelling and especially through our third eye, the inner
IHI, the replica of the Holy of Holies (i.e. the Ark of the Covenant also known
as ZION) within our / JAH Temple. While the letter is referring to our human
body (consistant of flesh, skin, bones, blood, water etc.), the former is
referring to the spiritual dimensions within our human nature. Spirituality is
what in-spirits our material form of existence. Spirituality is what gives our
life a vision and a direction where to go and what to do. Especially in ruff
times when it seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel and no one
to turn to in times of crises. It is the Great Spirit of Life, the very
essence, center and fountain of all forms of life (from the spiritual to the
material) that is always there for us to give us a helping hand and a place of
refuge. </span><br />

utilizing it for the common benefit and well-being of the (global) human
community. <br />
Throughout history there are numerous of examples of human beings who did not
develop their gifts and abilities for the common welfare of the larger human
race, but where driven through evil spirits to harmful evil deeds, wich
intstead of playing their rightful part within the human family and therefore to
support it`s spiritual and physical wellbeing, aiming to follow their own personal
interests, contradicting the rightful order of equal human rights and social
justice. His Imperial Majesty Eperor Haile Selassie The First put it with the
following words:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 1; text-align: justify;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">“Throughout history, it has been the inaction of
those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known
better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has
made it possible for evil to triumph.”</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 1; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 1; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">We
all know about the atrocities human beings proved themselves able to commit. We
all know through personal experiences that human beings are able to behave (as
it is said) so very unhuman. So without generalizing we can say that there are
two sides, whether it is right and good, or it is wrong and bad. Human beings
were given the ability to decide freely. This fact on one side is a very great
blessing as it allows us to measure out for ourselves what is best for us and
from a social perspective what is at the same time best for our fellows and at
the same time what should be avoided is it is not of any good value. On the
other side it bears the danger of the abuse of this great power wich lays
within this freedom of decision. It is violated if it is directed towards
egoistic benefits of single individuals or single groups if they are gained
upon the disadvantage of others and therefore against the common good and
wellbeing. His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie The First made the
following Speech at the World Evangelical Congress 1966 in Berlin, underlining
this very fact of reality:<br />
<br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">„</i></span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">In these modern days, there are a multitude of things
published in print and broadcast by radio which captivate the human mind and
spirit; many new ideas are disseminated by the learned. Many wonderful
appliances are produced to make life more and more comfortable. The rich powers
have passed on from exploring and exploiting this earth and are vying with each
other to explore and conquer the moon and the planets. Knowledge is increasing
in a bewildering manner. All this is good, wonderful and praiseworthy. But what
will be the end of it all? It is Our firm belief that only what the Lord wills
will be done. We should be careful that the results thus achieved by mankind
should not meet with the fate of the Tower of Babel, the handwork of those
people of old which came to pieces in their hands. The Apostle Paul says:
"The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God" and "The Lord
knoweth the thoughts of the wise and they are vain." The reason for this
is because generally speaking man makes himself and his wisdom the beginning
and the end of his aim in life, and we are convinced that the end of this is
destruction and death.<br />
<br />
Our Lord Jesus Christ says: "What has a man profited if he shall gain the
whole world and lose his own soul?" Why did the effort of those who tried
to build the Tower of Babel come to nothing? Was it not because they tried to
live apart from their Creator, and because, vaunting themselves in their
wisdom, they tried to build a tower whose top was to reach unto heaven and thus
make a name for themselves? It is Our conviction that all the activities of the
children of men which are not guided by the Spirit and counsel of God will bear
no lasting fruit, they will not be acceptable in the sight of the Lord and will
therefore come to nought as the Tower of Babel came to nought. […] However wise or however mighty a person may be, he is like a ship without a
rudder if he is without God. A rudderless ship is at the mercy of the waves and
the wind, drifts wherever they take it and if there arises a whirlwind it is
smashed against the rocks and becomes as if it has never existed. It is our
firm belief that a soul without Christ is bound to meet with no better fate.”</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 1; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Christ, God, the (Holy) Spirit, wich form together the Holy Trinity
(Kidus Selassie) is therefore so very essential and necessary for our human
nature and nature in a whole to exist, that we cannot miss HIM. Every single one
of us has a great responsibilty towards ourselves and each other. If we cannot
find ways and means to live together in peace and unity what will be the end of
it all? All those familar with the words and teachings of His Imperial Majesty
Emperor Haile Selassie know the answer very clear and straight. This is NOT A
JOKE THING. This is LIFE in it`s realest form, as real as (e.g.) the second world war
was and still is real!! This topic is o great concern to all of us regardless of sex, colour, race
or creed!!! This topic is „BEYOND“ any denominations human beings might be able
to be categorized in!!!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br />
On this point it would be suitable to go further into this direction, as there
is so much more to say and mention concerning the very danger of human existance,
wich His Imperial Majesty taught us is, together with international morality,
at stake. His Imperial Majesty started His appeal to the United Nations on the
4th of October 1963 with the following words:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Twenty-seven years ago, as Emperor of Ethiopia, I mounted the rostrum in
Geneva, Switzerland, to address the <span style="color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;">League of Nations </span>and to appeal for relief from the destruction
which had been unleashed against my defenseless nation, by the Fascist invader.
I spoke then both to and for the conscience of the world. My words went
unheeded, but history testifies to the accuracy of the warning that I gave in
1936. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Today, I stand before the world organization which has succeeded to the
mantle discarded by its discredited predecessor. In this body is enshrined the
principle of collective security which I unsuccessfully invoked at Geneva.
Here, in this Assembly, reposes the best - perhaps the last - hope for the
peaceful survival of mankind. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">In 1936, I declared that it was not the Covenant of the League that was at

worth if the will to keep them is lacking.</span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Charter of the United Nations
expresses the noblest aspirations of man: abjuration of force in the settlement
of disputes between states; the assurance of human rights and fundamental
freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion; the
safeguarding of international peace and security. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">But these, too, as were the phrases of the Covenant, are only words; their
value depends wholly on our will to observe and honor them and give them
content and meaning. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The
preservation of peace and the guaranteeing of man's basic freedoms and rights
require courage and eternal vigilance: courage to speak and act - and if
necessary, to suffer and die - for truth and justice; eternal vigilance, that
the least transgression of international morality shall not go undetected and
unremedied. These lessons must be learned anew by each succeeding generation,
and that generation is fortunate indeed which learns from other than its own
bitter experience. This Organization and each of its members bear a crushing
and awesome responsibility: to absorb the wisdom of history and to apply it to
the problems of the present, in order that future generations may be born, and
live, and die, in peace. […]<br />
<br />
But each one of us here knows that what has been accomplished is not enough.
The United Nations judgments have been and continue to be subject to
frustration, as individual member-states have ignored its pronouncements and
disregarded its recommendations. The Organization's sinews have been weakened,
as member-states have shirked their obligations to it. The authority of the
Organization has been mocked, as individual member-states have proceeded, in
violation of its commands, to pursue their own aims and ends. The troubles
which continue to plague us virtually all arise among member states of the
Organization, but the Organization remains impotent to enforce acceptable
solutions. As the maker and enforcer of the international law, what the United
Nations has achieved still falls regrettably short of our goal of an
international community of nations. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">This does not mean that the United Nations has failed. I have lived too
long to cherish many illusions about the essential highmindedness of men when
brought into stark confrontation with the issue of control over their security,
and their property interests. Not even now, when so much is at hazard would
many nations willingly entrust their destinies to other hands. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Yet, this is the ultimatum presented to us: secure the conditions whereby
men will entrust their security to a larger entity, or risk annihilation;
persuade men that their salvation rests in the subordination of national and
local interests to the interests of humanity, or endanger man's future. These
are the objectives, yesterday unobtainable, today essential, which we must
labor to achieve. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Until this
is accomplished, mankind's future remains hazardous and permanent peace a
matter for speculation. There is no single magic formula, no one simple step,
no words, whether written into the Organization's Charter or into a treaty
between states, which can automatically guarantee to us what we seek. Peace is
a day-to-day problem, the product of a multitude of events and judgments. Peace
is not an "is", it is a "becoming." We cannot escape the
dreadful possibility of catastrophe by miscalculation. But we can reach the
right decisions on the myriad subordinate problems which each new day poses,
and we can thereby make our contribution and perhaps the most that can be
reasonably expected of us in 1963 to the preservation of peace.”<br />
<br />
</span></i><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">These words clearly show us
the unavoidable necessity of collective security and unity within the human
community. It is a decision every single one of us has to do for ourselves.
There are only two options. Whether right or wrong. Let us give each other a
helping hand on this straight and narrow path to </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">this summit (we all are longing for to reach
intrinsically so very much), wich is destined for us by our Great Creator. <br />
<br />
His Imperial Majesty continues His Speech to the UN in mentioning two
particular issues <i>“</i></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><i>which are of deep concern to all men: disarmament
and the establishment of true equality among men.” </i><br />
<br />
<i>“Disarmament is vital today, quite simply, because of the immense destructive
capacity of which men dispose.”</i><br />
<br />
</span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“When we
talk of the equality of man, we find, also, a challenge and an opportunity; a
challenge to breathe new life into the ideals enshrined in the Charter, an opportunity
to bring men closer to freedom and true equality and thus, closer to a love of
peace. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The goal of the equality of man which we seek is the antithesis of the
exploitation of one people by another with which the pages of history and in
particular those written of the African and Asian continents, speak at such
length. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Exploitation, thus viewed, has many faces. But whatever guise it assumes,
this evil is to be shunned where it does not exist and crushed where it does.
It is the sacred duty of this Organization to ensure that the dream of equality
is finally realized for all men to whom it is still denied, to guarantee that
exploitation is not reincarnated in other forms in places whence it has already
been banished.”</span></i></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">What follows then in His Imperial Majesties Speech to the UN is the very
famous part wich Bob Marley used in his “War” song:<br />
<br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Last May, in Addis Ababa, I convened a
meeting of Heads of African States and Governments. In three days, the
thirty-two nations represented at that Conference demonstrated to the world

create confidence we must act courageously. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The great nations of the world would do well to remember that in the modern
age even their own fates are not wholly in their hands. Peace demands the
united efforts of us all. Who can foresee what spark might ignite the fuse? It
is not only the small and the weak who must scrupulously observe their
obligations to the United Nations and to each other. Unless the smaller nations
are accorded their proper voice in the settlement of the world's problems,
unless the equality which Africa and Asia have struggled to attain is reflected
in expanded membership in the institutions which make up the United Nations,
confidence will come just that much harder. Unless the rights of the least of
men are as assiduously protected as those of the greatest, the seeds of
confidence will fall on barren soil. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">When I spoke at Geneva in 1936, there was no precedent for a head of state
addressing the League of Nations. I am neither the first, nor will I be the
last head of state to address the United Nations, but only I have addressed
both the League and this Organization in this capacity. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">This, then, is
the ultimate challenge. Where are we to look for our survival, for the answers

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">We must look, first, to Almighty God, Who has raised man above the animals

that He will not desert us or permit us to destroy humanity which He created in
His image. </span></i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">And we must look into ourselves, into the depth of our souls. We must
become something we have never been and for which our education and experience
and environment have ill-prepared us. We must become bigger than we have been:
more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members
of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to
nations but to our fellow men within the human community.” (<a href="http://chronological-speeches-of-him-qhs.blogspot.de/2014/10/0410-1-speech-of-day-address-to-united.html">http://chronological-speeches-of-him-qhs.blogspot.de/2014/10/0410-1-speech-of-day-address-to-united.html</a>)

IHI God and Christ – the Might of the (Holy) Trinity (i.e. His Imperial Majesty
Haile Selassie (whose 123th birthday will be celebrated on the 23<sup>rd</sup>
of July)). This song was also written for the encouragement of every
single human being within the human community. Our destiny, aim and zeal (the
summit wich is destined for us by our Great Creator) is to become these very members
of a New Race, where there will be no more pain und no more sorrow, no more

of Our people, and during the past sxteen years, all those of you to whom We
have delegated power and appointed to various positions of trust in the service
of Our people, should consider yourselves, like Us, equally divinely appointed.
Oreover […] We have always reminded Our people that each and everyone should
help and support Us to fulfill Our national objectives. Our happiness today
must not be based primarily on material things or it would not be any different
to animal satisfaction. Each one of you should endeavor to cooperate with Us to
work selflessly for the development and prosperity of Our country Should you recognize
that like Us you have been chosen to serve Us, you will do your duty to God
and country, lest your conscience condemn you.” (<a href="http://chronological-speeches-of-him-qhs.blogspot.de/2015/05/0505-2-speech-of-day-on-occassion-of.html">http://chronological-speeches-of-him-qhs.blogspot.de/2015/05/0505-2-speech-of-day-on-occassion-of.html</a>)</span></i></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The first conference of the
independent African states was held in Accra, Ghana, on April 15, 1958. It was
decided then to celebrate this historic day as African Freedom Day. Until
recently, April 15 was celebrated throughout our continent as African Freedom
Day.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">However, two years ago today
in May the Summit Conference of the Independent African States, which was
convened in Our Capital City of Addis Ababa, decreed that May 25, the day on
which the historic Charter of the Organization of African Unity was signed, be
celebrated every year as African Liberation Day. Accordingly today is celebrated
as African Liberation Day.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The African Unity Charter
was signed two years ago today. Within this brief period much has been
accomplished that augurs well for African Unity. In accordance with the
resolution of the first Assembly of African Heads of State and Government held
in Cairo last year, the headquarters of the Organization of African Unity has
been established here in Addis Ababa. Under its Secretary-General, His
Excellency Mr. Diallo Telli, of Guinea, the Organization is successfully
discharging its responsibilities and commitments.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The Ethiopian people, who
have struggled and made untold sacrifices for their independence and freedom
for thousands of years – an independence that has been a beacon for all of
Africa – today celebrate this day together with all Africans by consolidating
their freedom and independence with the freedom and independence of their
African brothers in the spirit of Modern Ethiopianism.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This year, two sister
African states – Zambia and Gambia – have won independence and they have joined
the family of independent African states. We share their joy and We extend
again, as We did on the occasion when they won their independence, Our sincere
felicitations. We are anxiously awaiting the day when those Africans in the
dependent territories break the shackles of foreign tutelage and become masters
of their own fate.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">On this solemn day, all of
us must pause and remember the plight of Our African brothers who are under
foreign rule and who are desperately struggling to win their freedom, their
basic fundamental human rights.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Instead of granting their
rightful freedom and independence to the indigenous Africans in Angola,
Mozambique and Portuguese Guinea, the Portuguese Government has intensified
even more its campaign of ruthless suppression of African freedom fighters in
these territories, under the outmoded, illogical pretext that these territories
are part of Portugal. In concert with the other African members of the United
Nations Organization, Ethiopia has never ceased advocating at United Nations
and other international conferences that the Portuguese Government should grant
independence to each and every territory under its rule.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
recent events in Southern Rhodesia are cause for alarm – not only is the fate
of the people in the territory in jeopardy but international peace is also
threatened. A white minority Government in the territory is daily arresting,
and arbitrarily persecuting African freedom fighters, particularly their
leaders, to suppress the national freedom movements. This minority government
has even taken drastic steps to declare a colonial government. Each and every
government and the peoples of the world who value fundamental human rights, and
particularly We Africans, must oppose, with one voice, this dangerous and
unprecedented scheme of the white minority government in the territory. The
United Nations Anti-Colonial Committee of which Ethiopia is a member, is
presently visiting Africa to follow closely the dangerous situation in Southern
Rhodesia. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In South Africa and in South-West Africa,
the policies of apartheid and oppression are becoming increasingly unbearable.
The South African Government is accelerating its ruthless campaign: a methodological
campaign of arresting daily, detaining without trial and torturing the Africans
and their leaders who are struggling for their fundamental human rights and
freedom. All the peace-loving countries of the world must act together to force
the colonial governments of South Africa and Portugal to desist from these
policies – policies which are inhuman, policies which deny basic human rights,
policies which are detrimental to the peace and security of the entire world –
and grant independence and freedom to these oppressed people. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The Assembly of the African Heads of State
and Government has authorized the Foreign Ministers of Senegal and Algeria to
bring the cases of racial discrimination and oppression in South Africa, the
inhuman colonial rule of the Portuguese Government and the dangerous situation
in Southern Rhodesia, before the Security Council of the United Nations to find
permanent solutions to the unrelenting struggles of the African governments and
people. As a result the entire world is today more conscious of these pressing
problems. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">From
discussions in the United Nations in recent years, We have cause to believe that
some friendly nations fully support the efforts to impose an economic boycott
on South Africa and Portugal; it is unfortunate that some great powers who have
been entrusted with the maintenance of international peace and security have
not co-operated in these worthy efforts. These powers are the main obstacles to
an effective economic boycott of South Africa and Portugal. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The establishment of the Organization of
African Unity, the concerted action of the member-states and the pooling of the
aid to Our brethren African freedom fighters, have helped to revive and
strengthen as well as intensify the liberation movements throughout Africa. For
this We are grateful to the Liberation Committee of the nine African States, of
which Ethiopia is a member. On this day, we should all recollect with gratitude
the support of all those friendly nations in Our endeavour in the United
Nations and other international conferences to free Africa of all the colonial
vestiges. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: center; text-autospace: none;">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Next Assembly</span></b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It will be recalled that the Cairo
Assembly of the Heads of State and Government decided to convene the Second
Assembly of the Heads of State and Government in Accra, Ghana, in September
this year. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Because of misunderstandings among certain
member states of the Organization of African Unity, voices have been
occasionally raised recently against the convocation of the Assembly in Accra.
Nonetheless, the regular Assembly of the Heads of State and Government was, in
the first place, designed to find peaceful solutions, through deliberations and
frank exchange of views to such misunderstandings among member-states. We
believe, therefore, that any change in the venue of the next Assembly will make
no major dif-ference. Consequently We have despatched Our Minister of State for
Foreign Affairs to West Africa, with personal messages from Us, to mediate with
the leaders of the West African states concerned. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We earnestly hope that the member-states of the Organization of African
Unity will meet in Accra in September in accordance with the decision of the
first Assembly of the Heads of State and Government.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">On this day, We extend Our fraternal greetings to all Our brethren
Africans who are still suffering under foreign colonial rule. We reiterate that
Ethiopia, in co-operation with the member-states of the Organization of African
Unity, will always continue to give her full support for their just struggles
to win their inalienable rights to freedom and independence and to be masters
of their own destiny.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
take great pleasure in witnessing the fulfilment of Our desire to establish an
organization which will award prizes to scholars who make outstanding
contributions to the material and intellectual growth of Ethiopia, Africa and
the world at large.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
have established this chartered and completely independent organization by
donating Our personal estates and appointing distinguished officials as
Trustees to ensure the promotion and encouragement of activities and
proficiencies of the Ethiopian people in the diversified fields of Amharic
Literature, Fine Arts, Agriculture, Industry, and Humanitarian Activities.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Our
desire to encourage outstanding contributions transcends the boundaries of Our
Empire. The advancement of Ethiopia is not Our sole interest. The African
Research Award and the Empress Menen Award are therefore intended to provide
strong incentives throughout the Continent of Africa and the world at large.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
recognition of achievements of the highest calibre will not only reward those
deserving of awards but will also generate further creativity and
contributions.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Since
the responsibilities assigned to this organization are of both national and
international interest and import, it is gratifying to hear that the Prize
Trust, new as it is, shows a promising future and that many nominations and
entries from the five continents have been received.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
express Our strong desire that Ethiopians, permanent residents in Ethiopia,
Africans throughout the continent, and scholars concerned with Ethiopian
studies and African research will increasingly avail themselves of the
opportunities We have offered by the establishment of the Prize Trust.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
look forward to the successful completion of your work this year and the
announcements of the award-winners for 1964.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
declare the office building open as of this date.</span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 3.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It is for Us a great pleasure to welcome
Your Majesty to Our Court and in this way to manifest to the great and friendly
nations of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Our sentiments of sincere
friendship. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">For countless centuries, as the annals of
history so well attest, the people of Jordan have occupied a central and
important position in the Middle East. Faced with the manifold challenges which
that situation has so constantly presented, the people of Jordan have always
produced leaders worthy of those trials and of the responsibilities which their
central geographical position entails. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This reflection is no less appropriate in
the present and troubled hours of world history than it was during the earlier
years of this century. It is significant that the people of Jordan have always
been found on the side of freedom and</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">independence
for all peoples of the area and have, at the same time, under their leaders,
never relaxed their efforts in the defence of their own freedom and
independence. Today, the Armed Forces under the command of Your Majesty and
whose military traditions and prowess have gained renown throughout the Middle
East, stand as sentinel of order and as a powerful influence for the
maintenance of peace as well as for the defence of national independence and
territorial integrity. Ethiopia who has shared a similar military tradition, applauds
the resolute and distinguished role played by the Armed Forces of Jordan in the
defence of the latter’s independence, territory and national heritage. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Your Majesty’s role as a courageous leader
of a courageous people who, at the same time, have extended their hospitality
to countless refugees, evokes Our admiration and that of Our people. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">All of these distinguished national
traditions and achievements find themselves exemplified in the person of Your
Majesty whose intelligence, courage, statesmanship and leadership have earned
universal esteem for the nation of Jordan and its Sovereign. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We are, consequently, most gratified that
Your Majesty’s State visit to Ethiopia and to Our Court has thus served and
will serve further to strengthen the already firm friendship and understanding
existing between Jordan and Ethiopia. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We shall always remember with gratitude
the visit that His late Majesty, Your illustrious grandfather paid to Us at Our
Legation in London during Our exile, which was a consolation to Us. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This sympathy during the dark days of
trial has descended to the Illustrious Heir and successor of His late Majesty.
We therefore raise Our glass in a toast to His Majesty, Hussein I, King of the
Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and to a long-lasting friendship between Our two
nations and peoples. </span></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We have chosen to come here today for the
ceremony of laying the foundation stone for the construction of Our Port of
Assab, not only in order to inspect the beginning of what is to be a great
technical achievement, but also to commemorate a significant moment in the
history of Modern Ethiopia, combining as it does progress in modernity with
antiquity of tradition. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">No Ethiopian of this or of future
generations, can afford to forget the disadvantages under which Our country
suffered in the days when we had no access to the sea. It has, therefore, long
been the desire of Ethiopia to see her ports restored to the Motherland. In order
to secure an outlet to the sea on these shores, We entered in 1928 into an
agreement with the Government of Italy, but the agreement remained unhonoured,
with no default on Our part. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">God has ordained that this desire of
Ethiopia be fulfilled during Our reign, and has crowned with success Our
efforts to secure the re-integration of Eritrea and Ethiopia, which We
undertook as soon as We, by the help of the Almighty, had returned to Our
homeland and had completed the work of re-establishing and reorganizing Our
Government under Our personal guidance and direction. For this Our gratitude to
God is unbounded. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The trials and hardships to which Ethiopia
had been subject in the days when she had no free outlet to the sea, qualify
her in a special sense to appreciate the great importance of having a seaport
of her own. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In laying the foundation stone of the Port of Assab, this historic
gateway to the sea, connecting Our land with the oceans of the world, We are
today opening for all the peoples of Our Empire a door to prosperity and good
fortune of which they can be justly proud. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This
port, connecting Ethiopia with the pulsating artery of world commerce, joins
her in ties of trade with the shores of her friends and neighbours, and also
brings her into free contact with the continents of the world. We stand on the
renowned Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb, through which pass, perhaps more ships than
through any other stretch of water on our globe. Ethiopia, here in Assab,
stands sentinel to aid and assist the vast number of vessels which carry the
life-blood of world commerce. She must therefore be fully conscious of her
responsibility to work hard for the development of her ports. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This
uniquely strategic port of Ethiopia, after the trials and vicissitudes of
nearly a century when it languished unattended and cut off from its motherland,
has now been restored to her, and Ethiopia, in full realization of her high
responsibility, has undertaken the great task of transforming Assab, into that
outlet for Ethiopia’s sea-born products, which, by virtue of its unparalleled
position on the trade routes of the world, it has so long deserved, and indeed
demanded. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">At
the very instant of the long awaited return of Assab and Massawa, now five
years ago, We declared: </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 18.0pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<i><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In
order to utilize to the maximum the resources of the two ports of Massawa and
Assab, We have given orders that an ambitious programme of rehabilitation and
improvement of the installations at Massawa and Assab should be undertaken.
Moreover – and this has taken place well ahead of the date of the Federation of
Eritrea with Ethiopia – We have already commenced important works for the
repair and improvement of the roads linking these two ports with Eritrea and
Ethiopia. </span></i></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
first part of the ambitious programme has already been, under Our own direction,
largely accomplished. Although the challenge of the work that is yet to be
undertaken demands immense effort, We must not forget that much has already
been achieved here, all of which may not be apparent to the casual visitor. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
more than 26 millions of Ethiopian Dollars which We are expending for the high
engineering and technical exploits involved in the development programme of the
Port of Assab, constitute already a direct and permanent investment in the future
of the Port for which We today lay the foundation stone. This in itself is
sufficient guarantee for the unhindered development of the port to meet the
rapid expansion of Ethiopia’s economy which has characterized Our reign. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
expenditure of large sums of money and thousands of hours of engineering skill
and re-examination by experts in engineering, in marine construction, in
finance, in commerce, and, finally, many weeks of careful study and re-assesment
by Ourselves of all the work that has been undertaken at Our command, have
taken place in order to make possible this historic moment. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Following these careful studies, and after mature reflection
on all aspects made by Our ends, the great and noble people of Yugoslavia, most
advantageous to us in comparison with other similar proposals, both in terms of
engineering genius and of financial facilities, We have accordingly, chosen to
entrust this vastly significant task of constructing the port of Assab, to the
Yugoslav people. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
would not let this auspicious occasion pass without Our expressing to His
Excellency Marshal Josip Broz Tito, President of Yugoslavia, Our thanks for the
assistance he has rendered in bringing to fruition this co-operative venture,
which shall always remain a symbol of our mutual friendship.</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We are fully confident that the Port of Assab will respond
fully to its high destiny and that a great future awaits to bless this
undertaking. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It is essential, as We stated five years ago, that
Massawa also be fully developed. The resources of Ethiopia, both present and
potential, are manifestly adequate to permit the three ports of Massawa, Assab
and Djibouti, to thrive together without rivalry in a spirit of collaboration
and co-operation. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In thus providing the means for the continued growth
of Ethiopia’s foreign trade, We have looked not only to the benefit of one
particular region, but also to the welfare and prosperity of Ethiopia as a
whole. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">At the moment of the return to Ethiopia of Our loyal
subjects along the Red Sea coast, We declared: “We will provide, by all
possible means, for the welfare of the population of Eritrea.” </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This
promise We have always maintained and fulfilled in various practical ways. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Since
God gives us to enjoy only those fruits which we cultivate with toil and
sacrifice, We call upon all Our beloved subjects, in a spirit of national
dedication, by their labours and devotion, to ensure that this Port, now to
spring into existence, will prove worthy of its heritage and of its challenge. </span></div>

<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">AT AIR FORCE DISPLAY</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Religion has long taught to have no grudges against others. We have no
grudges against past enemies. And yet, we cannot forget the injustices
perpetrated against the Ethiopian people. In the celebration of the last couple
of days – marking the 25th anniversary of Ethiopia’s liberation – we have
observed with satisfaction the display by our Armed Forces. And We praise the
Lord Almighty for the presence amongst us of the patriots and exiles who
survived the enemy’s ruthless man-hunt and victimization.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">As it has been correctly stated earlier, Ethiopia fell an easy victim to
external aggression because she lacked air power. Today We have witness that
Ethiopia has an air power to reckon with. What took place today and what the
Air Force is heading to accomplish, indeed furnishes a confidence in the future
of the Ethiopian people.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Nevertheless the establishment of an air force is not sufficient in
itself. We have assigned men to various positions of responsibility in the
Ethiopian Air Force and it is up to these men to apply themselves diligently to
the task of self- improvement. The rank and file and the Officers of the
Ethiopian Air Force must work with the dedication their fathers and forefathers
had shown in the past – the past in which all Ethiopians can take pride.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Through diligence, wisdom and labour, our forefathers have preserved the
sovereignty of Our nation and the integrity of our country. The present as well
as the future generation bears responsibility to follow the examples set in the
past and to dedicate themselves for stability, progress and betterment of the
Ethiopia of tomorrow. No arms, however big or however mighty, can provide
solace to a nation. A nation finds comfort and the freedom of that nation is
best protected through the sacrifice and patriotism of its people. We must put
to the best use the rich heritage of our past for in that way, and in that way
alone can We live to the highest standard set by our forefathers for the
Ethiopian people.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Today, as We come to the close of the three-day celebrations, We thank
God for all He has done for the Ethiopian people. We have witnessed the
emergence of Ethiopia’s air power, the growth of her Navy, the strength of her land
forces and above all, the will of her people to overcome all difficulties. We
praise God for the progress We have already made and for the progress that is
bound to be Ours tomorrow. The all-round development of Ethiopia and
particularly the development of her Armed Forces and her economic resources
unmistakably show the greatness of the Ethiopian people in going beyond and
above individual gains and labour to the common good of all. We are the more
happy to witness the progress and development that is taking place for through
it the rights of all the people of Ethiopia are better protected and their
future happiness is better assured. Join Us today in praying to God to give Us
further strength to proceed along this useful course.</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Some
jested that Ethiopia fell victim to Fascist aggression in the short period of
seven to eight months. But history has mocked the jesters by showing that those
who laughed in mockery lost their battle for freedom in a matter of days only.
The vital resources of a nation are, as we have already said, the people’s
selfless dedication and vigilance to overcome difficulties – it is not the
heavy armoury but the quality of the citizens that man it that matters. The
Ethiopian people are now more assured than ever before of a brighter future.
What gives form and substance to this assurance is the ever-existing vigilance
of our people, the strength of Our Armed Forces, the progress achieved in the
various fields of national endeavour and above all the unity of our people.
This is not only a source of satisfaction but a source of honour too. This
furnishes the living with hope for a better future. And the dead shall rest in
peace for their sacrifice in defence of their country has been honoured. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Those that have fallen in the battle-field have sacrificed themselves so
that Our future would be more secure. And we the living have the responsibility
of living up to the sacrifice that they have made, and to this all Ethiopians
must dedicate themselves. In all your undertakings through your career, base
yourselves on greater knowledge, courage and determination. For, if you base
yourselves upon these values, you shall not fail but you shall forever go from
one victory to another. I thank all the hard-working members of the Air Force. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small; line-height: 115%;">May God bless you.</span></div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-align: center;">

REFINERY</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;">We have come here today to lay the cornerstone of an essential component
in Ethiopia’s development structure. The construction of the Assab Oil Refinery
marks the commencement of a bright new era in the history of Ethiopian economic
development, an era which will surely witness Ethiopia’s full advent into the
modern industrial age.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;">This great oil refinery may properly be termed Ethiopia’s first major
heavy industrial project. Its importance to the further growth and expansion of
Ethiopian industry in all its aspects cannot be over-estimated. Within a short
time, Ethiopia will be entirely self-sufficient in the supply of refined
petroleum products. The petroleum products are essential to the future growth
and expansion of all sectors of the Ethiopian economy. Roads and road transport
to the important agricultural centres of the nation can be expected to improve
both in scope and efficiency as a result of this new project. Its success will
lend further encouragement to the development of innumerable new and related

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;">Here at Assab, the Refinery has already shown itself an important element
in the burgeoning local economy. Thousands of workers have been employed and
have learned vital new skills in the course of its construction. Increased shipping
will utilize Assab’s modern port facilities, ensuring that Assab will continue
its remarkable growth and prosperity of recent years. We hope that someday, God
willing, we will strike oil in our country and will not be required to buy
crude oil from other countries. Heavy drains on Ethiopia’s foreign exchange
will be eliminated, as these requirements are reduced to those needed to
provide the essential supply of crude oil and to maintain this refinery in
proper working order. Although there are some technicians trained we need many
trained personnel. As experience is obtained, Ethiopians will increasingly
assume larger responsibilities for the administration and technical operation
of this installation. The impact of the establishment of this installation is
thus not single but multiple in its effects.</span></div>

support or justify the construction of complex and costly facilities such as
that which rises before us. The contention, already disproved in theory, will
soon be even more effectively rebutted in practice. The success which We are
confident will mark the Assab refinery’s operations will spur Ethiopia to
follow this example in other areas vital to the growth and self-sufficiency of
the nation’s economy.</span></div>

important new industrial asset, We and Our people are deeply grateful. The U.
S. S. R. Government, through the credit advanced for the financing of this
project, have reaffirmed their sympathy in the deepest aspirations of Our
people. The bonds between us have been strengthened as a result of our
co-operation in this endeavour and we look forward to the successful broadening
of this co-operation into many other areas of economic and technical advance.
The magnificent accomplishments of the Soviet people in the development of
heavy industry throughout the recent past provide a stirring example to Our
people. A fine example of which is the Polytechnical Institute which is a
source of knowledge presented to us by the Soviet Government.</span></div>

they have shown with Our people in building up this refinery.</span></div>

impact of modern industrial progress will be felt to the farthest corners of
the Empire. All Ethiopians welcome the promise of this new industrial era. We
and Our Government shall do all within our power to hasten the day when its
full benefits are enjoyed by every Ethiopian.</span></div>

Boudakov,
for his sincere co-operation and great effort to bring about the conclusion of
the construction Agreement of this petroleum refinery.</span></div>

a rapid industrialization, within the frame-work of modern Ethiopianism, for it
answers in a convincing manner the aspirations of the nation to press forward
in constructing on the foundations already laid an edifice worthy of its
striving.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">May 5th, 1941 will live as one of the
greatest days in the long annals of Ethiopian history. It was, at the same
time, a great turning point in world history. For a brief period, Ethiopia
alone had carried on the struggle against fascist tyranny. Our appeals were
unheeded. Our warnings ignored. But at last those who had turned their backs on
Us at the League of Nations were themselves driven into turmoil and suffering
and to the very brink of destruction. At last they came to recognize their
common responsibility to oppose the inhuman and degrading doctrine which had
brought devastation and destruction to Our innocent nation. The victory over
fascism in Ethiopia and for Africa was but the first inspiring landmark for the
allied nations on the long road back to the re-establishment of liberty and
justice for themselves. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">A century ago, Ethiopia possessed
virtually no modern weapons, no defence against the power of technology. Swords
and spears and raw courage were her weapons. She had no standing army, no
trained and disciplined officers and ranks. She depended for her safety upon
the patriotic instincts in the heart of every Ethiopian and upon the
inspiration of her leaders. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">But these resources, even then, were not
lightly to be dismissed. Just seventy years ago, Ethiopian armies formed almost
as if by magic and hurled themselves upon a grasping invader to gain the
immortal triumph of Adowa. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
victory of Adowa has long been hailed as one of the major events of the
nineteenth century in Africa. Its effects upon Ethiopia and her relations with
the colonial powers were far-reaching. Certainly it preserved the nation’s
age-old independence from the greedy incursions then being made elsewhere
against our brethren on this continent. Thus, although denied her rightful
access to the sea and isolated from the influences of modern technological
learning, Ethiopia nonetheless maintained her independence and stood as a
source of inspiration and hope to her fellow Africans. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">But the legacy of Adowa was perhaps
misleading, for soon, courage and valour would not be enough. The industrialized
nations applied the weight of modern science to the development of ever more
fearful engines of war. Recognizing the danger, We early attempted to alter the
nature of the nation’s military base. At our insistence, a small modern
military unit was in fact, organized and trained by experienced soldiers.
Airplanes were purchased and young men were sent abroad for advanced
instruction. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">First of all, however, We placed Our faith
in the principle of collective security and the seemingly indisputable might of
the League of Nations. The story of the betrayal of that faith is one of the
acknowledged tragedies of our times. The arms and supplies which Ethiopia could
not produce herself were denied her, while the enemy continued to build and
fuel with its own resources its great war machine. The most futile sanctions
were half-heartedly called for, and less than half-heartedly enforced.
Ethiopia’s warriors and patriots fought with all the valour and desperation for
which they and their ancestors had so often been called upon before, but they
were powerless against the bombs and poison gas which the enemy so mercilessly
and savagely employed against soldiers and innocent civilians alike. The
brutality of those infamous days will forever haunt the memory of those who
lived through them. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
lessons of experience are rarely easy. It was through bloodshed and sorrow that
Ethiopia learned the awesome power of modern arms and organized military might.
From the ashes of the war Ethiopians began to reconstruct a new and more
powerful nation. We vowed in sorrow that Ethiopia would never again through
weakness suffer such outrages as had been wrought upon her. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In the years since 1941, Ethiopia’s
military power has grown far beyond the meager and ill-equipped forces which
struggled through the mountains to Addis Ababa. Ethiopia is ready today, as in
the past, to defend her integrity to the last limit of her resources. But she
disposes now of the trained military forces, the modern equipment which will
protect her rights and interests against the onslaughts of any misguided
aggressor. Never again will she be taken unaware. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">From the day of Our return We set about
building a military apparatus which would be equal to the task of guarding Our
homeland and people against attack from any source. Over the years the quality
and strength of the nation’s forces have grown rapidly. Today Ethiopia possesses
compact and well equipped ground, naval and air forces. She has trained
substantial numbers of soldiers, sailors and airmen in the modern techniques of
engineering and weaponry. These have long since proved in battle their capacity
to stand man for man against the soldiery of any nation in the world. Acting
with the help and guidance of other friendly nations we have established on
Ethiopian soil the most modern army, navy and air training institutions.
Skilled officers possessing the highest technical qualifications now comprise
the imposing cadres of Ethiopia’s military leaders. Other African nations have
sent the finest of their young men to study in our military institutions both
in recognition of the quality of education provided there and in open
expression of the trust and confidence which we repose in one another. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Yet
even beyond the vast improvements in the Ethiopian military machine, there
stands in defence of peace the great bulwark of the United Nations, erected
with willing and eager hands out of the torment, destruction and misery of the
last war. Even as the guns were falling silent the representatives of millions
of men and women, Ethiopians among them, pledged themselves to uphold the
Charter of the United Nations so that no such holocaust would ever again ravage
and darken the earth. The United Nations was conceived as a means of real and
positive action in the face of aggression. Ethiopia evinced her continuing
faith in collective security as she enrolled herself among the charter members
of the organization. In accordance with decisions of the United Nations,
Ethiopia has shown her willingness to give substance to principle, to fight and
sacrifice for others as for herself – in Korea, in the Congo, and elsewhere –
in order to uphold and defend the rule of justice and reason in human affairs. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We have gathered today to pay tribute to
the noble fighting men of Ethiopia and of many other nations who struggled here
and gave their blood to this land. We salute the heroes, both living and dead,
men like the late General Wingate, Ethiopian and foreigner alike, who enabled
Our people once again to walk freely with heads unbowed upon the soil of their
fathers. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Present on this occasion are a few of the
valiant British officers who twenty-five years ago travelled the long and
arduous path to victory. We recall with deep pride the magnificent
accomplishments of the many brave men like Brigadier Sandford who joined in
that glorious and triumphant march. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We are also honoured today with the
presence of military representatives of many of the other nations whose troops
fought on our soil in the common cause. Their names recall an honour roll of
bravery and selfless sacrifice. We are proud that our friendship with them
continues strong. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We are proud too that in testimony to the unity and present readiness of
this entire continent, military representatives of the member states of the
Organization of African Unity are present at these commemorative ceremonies.
High among the principles enshrined in the Charter of that Organization is the
commitment of its member states to co-ordinate and harmonize their policies
with respect to co-operation for mutual defence and security. The growing might
of this continent’s military forces must make any aggressor wary indeed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Finally, representatives of the armed forces of both the United States
and the Soviet Union have joined this assemblage at Our invitation. These two
immensely powerful nations dispose today of destructive power which defies the
comprehension of ordinary men. Both are here represented as friends of Our
nation; both refused to extend recognition of the Fascists in Ethiopia; both
have contributed to the building of the modern Ethiopian state. The American
and Soviet governments have been entrusted by fate with awesome
responsibilities for the maintenance of world peace. We are hopeful that in
consultation with Ethiopia and all other nations of the world they will both
continue to devote their utmost efforts to the search for effective means to
halt the arms race and bring about meaningful disarmament.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">For twenty-five years now, Ethiopia has lived quietly and her people
have enjoyed the blessings of peace. Our country’s economy has flourished, and
foreigners, in collaboration with Ethiopians, have been encouraged to invest in
this stable African state.</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">But
throughout all this time the flames of war have not for a moment ceased to
flicker from point to point across the world. It is important that this
assembly, gathered in recognition of a great triumph of arms, should recall
that the victory which was won in Ethiopia was a victory for peace. The
military might of which the nations here represented today dispose can be
justified only to preserve peace and freedom. There is enough hunger and misery
in the world without further war and suffering. The vast sums swallowed by
modern arsenals capable of infinite destruction could be employed in providing
food for hungry mouths, in eradicating poverty, illiteracy and disease, in
building for a united world the better way of life which man’s genius has made
possible. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Let us vow to be strong today only that we may in our strength advance
the time when it will be possible to beat our swords into plowshares and when
nation shall not make war upon nation. Let us pledge together that this time
will not be long. Let us work for trust among men, for disarmament, for peace.</span></div>

I feel to the merciful God who has enabled me to stand in your midst on this
day of which the angels in heaven and the creation on earth could neither have
thought of nor known. Before everything else I want to tell you and to make you
understand that this day is a day on which a fresh chapter of the history of
the New Ethiopia begins. In this new era a new work is commencing which it is
the duty of all of us to perform.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;">If we desire to be reminiscent of the affliction
which befell Ethiopia during the past years we shall only speak of her recent
history. When Ethiopia, who has preserved her independence for many thousands
of years, was attacked in 1888 E.C. (1896 Gregorian Calendar) by Italy, who had
harboured aggressive designs against her for many years before with the
intention of destroying her freedom, her brave sons fought at Adowa and she
saved her independence. The Treaty of Wuchali (Uccialli 1889) was not the only
cause of the battle that was fought at Adowa. It was only a pretext for the
constant desire that Italy had had of ruling Ethiopia. Although the Great
European War interfered with her plans for a time, and in spite of her outward
protestations of friendship, Italy revealed in recent years the preparations
she had been making against Ethiopia after her defeat at Adowa, because of her
resentment that justice should have prevailed against her.</span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: DE;">When Italy began to make a war of aggression on Ethiopia, although we
knew we were not as well armed as she was, we went against her with what
strength we could muster, because it was our duty to resist an enemy that had
come to seize our country. But as it was apparent that she was bent on
exterminating our people with poison gas, the use of which was prohibited by
international law, we went to appeal to the League of Nations and to claim
justice. As it was feared that this hostility started by Italy might spread all
over the world, and as it was a period when all those who were charged with the
responsibility of government were trying to save the world from the catastrophe
which has since befallen it, they were working to bring about understanding in
the world to prevent the spread of the conflagration. At that time our true
friend, Great Britain, received us with sympathy. I remained there working, but
constantly being </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">in spirit with my countrymen whose blood was
being use-lessly, and ruthlessly shed at the hands of the Italians: with the
monasteries and churches that were being burned down; with those forced to take
refuge in foreign lands; and with those suffering and being afflicted in the
wilderness, in the caves and in the forests of their native land. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">

<b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thousands Perished</span></b></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">How many are the young men, the women, the
priests and the monks whom the Italians pitilessly massacred during these
years? You know that in Addis Ababa alone many thousands perished during the
three days following St. Michael’s Day on Yekatit 12, 1929 (19th February,
1937). The blood and bones of those who were killed with spades and pickaxes,
of those who were split with axes and hammered to death, pierced with bayonets,
clubbed and stoned, of those who were burned alive with their little children
in their homes, of those who perished of hunger and thirst in prison have been
crying for justice. Everybody knows that this act of barbarism and cruelty was
not perpetrated in Addis Ababa alone, but more especially in the provinces of
Ethiopia. There is hardly anyone who has not been caught and beaten, kicked,
humiliated and imprisoned. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Now we shall pass on to the new history
that is before us. Five years ago today the fascist forces entered our capital
city. Then Mussolini announced to the world that he had established a Roman
Empire in our country, Ethiopia. He believed that the land he declared he had
conquered would forever be in his hands. The heroism of the Ethiopian people is
known in history. But as we had no port through which to import modern
armaments necessary for our people, we were unable to obtain them. Fifty-two
nations condemned Mussolini for his deed. But be boasted of his violent deed
and took no notice of their condemnation. The past five </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">years have been years of darkness for you, my people.
But you never lost hope, and little by little you spread on the Ethiopian
hills. The enemy never ventured to come near the mountains on which you were
because, enduring every hard-ship and affliction, you, the warriors of
Ethiopia, safeguarded your freedom during the past five years. But in spite of
the fact that he could not conquer the country, he spent many thousands of
millions of lire, saying that he was civilizing what he could hold. He spent
all that money not because he desired to improve the condition of the oppressed
Ethiopian people or to mitigate the injustice he had done. It is because he
wanted to plant a fascist colony in our sacred land of Ethiopia and to impose
on her the rule of oppression which he had planned. He tried to exterminate the
Ethiopian race, and did not even entertain the idea of giving her the administration
of a mandate or a protectorate, which in any case would have been considered a
heavy yoke for a free people. But all the money that could be counted by the
thousand million and all the prepared armaments served a purpose which
Mussolini never intended them to serve. At the time when Italy revealed her
intentions of entering the war in order to be able to snatch from defeated
France as much as she could, the number of soldiers, the amount of money and
the armaments she had sent to Ethiopia was enormous. The regular troops she
concentrated were not less than 250,000; she also amassed provisions to last
for many years in case she was encircled. Trusting in, and bragging of, the
invincibility of this military force, the fascist government proceeded with
planting totalitarian rule in our country. But something happened which the
fascist government did not take into account. The fighting spirit which is
essential in modern war revealed in you. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">You were able to destroy the enemy who
were superior to you in number and equipment, because you are a people
possessed of bravery and mercy and because you co-operated and knew the
stratagems of war. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The British troops, who were fighting for
human rights on other fronts of the war, needed time to get ready to come to
the assistance of Ethiopia and free her. But you, warriors of Ethiopia,
harassed the enemy by cutting his communications, by harrying him and
restricting him to his fortifications. In spite of the great numbers of troops
in which he put his trust, he realized that the Ethiopian people from one end
to the other hated him and his rule. He knew also that it was impossible for
him to live in such a country and in the midst of such a people. Even by using
poison gas and bombs and by his atrocities he could no longer hope to enjoy an
overlordship of a country the inside of which was undermined. He realized that
the soldiers who surrounded him were adversaries more powerful than he was. He
spent the daring and the money that were left to him to meet his adversaries.
Then he looked around, if perchance he could find somewhere where he could take
shelter in Ethiopia, but he could find no shelter. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">When
the time came, our great ally, the British Government, prepared to launch a
proper attack against our enemy. As soon as I knew this I left for the distant
land of the Sudan which borders us in the west, and entered central Gojjam. In
Gojjam our enemy had strong fortified positions, powerful troops, aeroplanes
and artillery. On comparing the number of our soldiers with that of the enemy
we found that we had one soldier for every 20 of his. Moreover, we had no
artillery and aircraft that we could dispose of at will. The fact that I was
found in the midst of my warriors at once attracted many thousands of men. And
the fear and anxiety of our enemy increased to that extent. While my soldiers
were harassing and cutting the enemy’s communications and after having driven
his troops across the Abbai (Blue Nile), were pursuing them towards Shoo and
Begamder, I heard the good news that the British Imperial troops had, with
incomparable speed, occupied our capital city and were pushing towards Dessie
in the North and Jimma in the South. In the same way, the troops who started
from the Sudan destroyed the fortress at Keren with wonderful force and utterly
defeated the enemy. And as the time came for my return to my capital I mustered
my soldiers who were scattered in every direction in pursuit of our enemies,
and find myself in my capital today. I am exceedingly happy that I have been
able to arrive here at the head of my soldiers, the enemy who was found on my
path being defeated, and to break the power of the common foe. I am deeply
thankful to Almighty God that I stand today in your midst in my Palace, from
which the fascist government has fled. </span></div>

to her children. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This day, on which the people of Ethiopia
are freed from oppressive foreign yoke and eternal servitude and on which I am
enabled to rejoin my people, whom I love and have longed for, will be honoured
as a holiday to be commemorated annually as a Great Ethiopian Anniversary. On
this day we shall remember those heroic warriors who, determined not to
surrender the great charge passed on to them by their Father, became
sacrifices, shedding their blood and breaking their bones for the freedom of
the land they loved and for the honour of their Emperor and their flag. The
history of Ethiopia will be witness for these our warriors. </span></div>

during the past five years and which cannot be recounted and numbered in detail
will be a great lesson to us all, and with industry, unity, co-operation and
love engraved in your hearts, will be a great incentive to you to be my helpers
in the affairs of Ethiopia which I have in mind. In the New Ethiopia I want you
to be a people undivided and endowed with freedom and equality before the law.</span></div>

blessing with which God in His mercy has visited us, first, by showing our
gratitude to our Allies, the British, by the release of the Imperial troops to
fight the common enemy on other fronts, and by supplying them with troops
whenever they may be needed; secondly, to do work beneficial to the people and
the country by establishing in our Ethiopia a Government which will protect the
Faith and cause it to be respected, and by guaranteeing liberty of the people
and Freedom of conscience.</span></div>

is that today is a day of rejoicing for us all. Today is a day on which we
defeated our enemy. Therefore, when we say let us all rejoice with our hearts
let not our rejoicing be in any other way but in the spirit of Christ. Do not
return evil for evil. Do not indulge in the atrocities which the enemy has been
practising in his usual way, even up to the last moment.</span></div>

of the enemy. We shall see that our enemies are disarmed and sent the same way
they came. As St. George who killed the dragon is the Patron Saint of </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">our
army as well as of our allies, let us unite with our allies in everlasting

dragon which has newly risen and which is oppressing mankind. I charge you to
consider them as a brother and a friend and to show them kindness and
consideration. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">….. <i>To win the war; to overcome the
enemy upon the field, cannot alone ensure the Victory in Peace. The cause of
war must be removed. Each nation’s rights must be secure from violation. Above
all, from the human mind must be erased all thoughts of war as a solution. Then
and then only will war cease</i>….. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Almost six years ago, on September the 1st
in 1939, Hitler’s Germany attacked Poland. For many people in the world –
perhaps for most – this fearful day was held as marking the beginning of the
Second Great World War. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Later, with the wider perspective that the
years of battle have afforded, many have come to realize what We in Ethiopia
and Our Great Ally in the East had learned so bitterly, the war – this war – in
all its true significance had started many years before. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We are celebrating today, the redemption of
the world through the sacrifice of human life. We pray for the foundation of
World Peace which may now be laid in all those lands whose people were victims
of aggression. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">And so, today, in a month already fraught with great significance for us
and for our history in Ethiopia, We join in special gratitude, together with
the representatives and members of the Nations of Our Allies, in solemn thanks
before Almighty God – for Victory. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Germany is defeated. The vast horror and
the tribulations of the war – which We foresaw – which We forewarned before the
League of Nations – has ceased for Europe. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The subtle gradual moves by the Axis
partners, piece by piece to swallow up the world, offer a fearful catalogue
which We may well this day recall. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Following her attack upon Manchuria and
different annexations, Japan was finally at war with China, in 1937. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In 1935 Italy attacked and invaded Our
Empire. This was not strange. It was but the continuation of Italian aggression
committed against Corfu, regarded by her as a glorious achievement. In 1939 on
Good Friday she invaded Albania. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In 1938 Hitler had annexed Austria only to
move on to Czechoslovakia and in 1939 to parts of Lithuania. Despite all this,
until the attack on Poland in September of that year, no general war was
recognized by the world. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The attack on Poland brought the
Governments of Britain and of France to her defence, but others hesitated,
until with the great German offensive of 1940 more lands were overrun. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">First Denmark, then Norway, fell. With the
final attack on France, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands were occupied. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>

<b><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Italy Joined</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Italy,
seeking further glory, boastfully joined the conflict, an entry into war
described by that great and lamented leader the late President Roosevelt as
“stabbing in the back” – a description which will remain in history and human
memory for ever. She invaded Greece in October 1940; but Greece, inspired by the
tradition of her people’s courage and their independence, all but shattered
Mussolini’s troops. On the verge of defeat, Italy appealed for help and to be
rescued by her partner Germany, who took the opportunity to take in Yugoslavia
on the way. In June 1941 Germany, in contravention of her treaty, attacked the
mighty Soviet Union. The satellites, Hungary, Roumania and Bulgaria, thought it
best to join the Axis Group. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">By December of that year the Japanese
attacked Pearl Harbour bringing the United States into the conflict. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Thus, in a few short months, when We were
struggling for and as We gained Our freedom once again, the greater part of the
world was drawn into the holocaust of war. Our effort was not only to regain
our independence, but to attack the common enemies, the Fascists and the Nazis.
We ordered that all Fascist troops captured by our Patriots in Ethiopia be
handed over to our Army. The war against the Fascist was our war. That war with
all its unimaginable cost in human life and happiness and wealth is only now
just drawing to its close. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The day of reckoning is now at hand for
all those Quislings and war criminals to receive their due reward for all the
misery, torture, imprisonment and massacre committed by themselves and through
their orders against so many men and women, old and young. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: justify; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The time has now come for such criminals
as Badoglio and Graziani who washed their hands with the blood of men; who were
pioneers of human destruction in Ethiopia. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Although
no one of Us can yet rejoice in full, for still one formidable foe remains. We
can with justice and with gratitude thank God that this great enemy – perhaps
the greatest of Our common enemies – has now been brought to book. With this
event Japan is doomed. The tyranny, which threatened all of Us and against
which so many fought with such incomparable bravery, is stilled. Much of the
tragedy and misery, death and destruction is at an end. For this We lay Our
heart before Almighty God in an thankfulness. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Today,
as We offer Our prayers in thankfulness, so do We offer Our prayers and
remembrance now, and in the silence of Our service, for those heroic soldiers,
sailors and airmen and for those civilians also, who from all nations of the
Allies, have laid down their lives. We would offer too Our prayers and with Our
prayers Our thoughts to those parents who have lost their sons and those widows
and dependents who have been left with all the aftermath of sorrow and of
difficulty. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Help Did Not Come</span></b></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Ten
years ago, when Mussolini’s Italy attacked Our Empire, the masses of the
peoples of the world – even, We would hazard, most individual members of the
League of Nations – were in the fullest sympathy with Us. Some there were who
sought to do so. After Belgium and Czechoslovakia were overrun by Germany they
were accused by Mussolini for helping Ethiopia by providing arms. But in the
end, delay, discussions and considerations of the world prevailed. Help did not
come. We speak now without bitterness about that time. We can appreciate that
true idealism may have lain behind those policies, now indeed regretted by the
world and now admitted as disastrous, of “Peace at any price” and of
“appeasement.” Nevertheless, We pray that unity and that the strength behind the
unity, which failed before, will never lack again among the Councils of the
World. We also pray for wisdom to be granted to the Con-ference at San
Francisco now discussing World Security and that it shall finally achieve
results that shall be just to all the nations of the world. At this time the
aggressor and the persecutor are receiving their reward. It is they who are
being driven out, while those they had oppressed and persecuted can now begin
to wipe away their tears. Distorted history is changed to truth. The light of
justice dawns again. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Throughout
the years of tribulation We have learned the need for unity. In those first
fateful days in 1939, by no means all the nations who, together, have now
gained this victory, were then convinced that each and all must hang together
or must fall. When – almost too late – after the resistance of Great Britain
following the epic of Dunkirk – hope had been brought once more into the world,
the larger that spirit grew. The Governments and Empires of those countries who
were overrun but not defeated, joined their lot with Britain. Symbolized in the
inspiration of their great leader – President Roosevelt – so recently and so
tragically dead, the people of the United States of America joined their spirit
through Lease-Lend. The dastardly attacks upon the Soviet Union and upon Pearl
Harbour finally crzystallized the realization that this menace was world-wide. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After
the treacherous attack on Pearl Harbour, the unlimited resources in men and in
machinery, the unquenchable democratic faith of the Great United States of
America were ranged against the Axis Powers. From then there was no faltering.
Unity continued to build up the vast resource and potential of the Allies – the
United Nations – who have now achieved this Victory in Germany; who will
achieve that even greater Victory of peace within the world and realize the
aims of those essential freedoms outlined in the Atlantic Charter. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Meaning Of Victory</span></b></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Lastly,
for a few moments, We would turn Our thoughts towards all this victory must
signify to our own land – to Ethiopia. As we have said, the sorrows of Our
land, the gas that fascists poured upon Our people and the massacres and
tortures that the fascist leaders, symbolized by Graziani, practised on Our
folk; these, to Our mind, are all part of this great war, whose end so rapidly
approaches. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">As
We, here celebrate the Allied Victory in Germany and pray for those who brought
this victory about, also We may pray again in thankfulness that through their
effort We, here, in this land, are saved. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Here
too We may recall the first great allied Victory of this war. The Victory by
which the soldiers of Great Britain and her Commonwealth, fighting together
with Our patriots, brought freedom back to Ethiopia. But this alone could not
ensure Our gain, because the battle was still close. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">By
her resistance to the Italians in 1935 Ethiopia was first actively to oppose
the forces of the Axis on the continent of Africa. For five years Ethiopian
patriots maintained the fight to such effect that when the world war spread to
Africa their forces of resistance were already marshalled. With the British
they expelled the enemy from Ethiopia. One threat which menaced Egypt and the
Sudan was ended. The victories in Africa two years ago made surety more sure. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">After
the defeat of the Italians We willingly contributed all available supplies and
means of transport and communication to the War effort. To further the
prosecution of the war We placed a large part of Our territory under military administration.
We offered troops. By all means at her disposal Ethiopia, from the first,

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">When
Italy surrendered – then was Our oppressor humbled. But still his friend
remained, powerful in might, well supplied in all the machinery of war. The
mighty Soviet Union opposed this enemy on land. All the resources of the
arsenals of Unity were turned upon the Nazi foe. Battered from the East, bombed
from the air, and finally invaded from the West this enemy, by God’s grace, now
too, has gone. Only Japan remains – a hope forlorn – and We in Ethiopia with
all of Our friends are saved. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Those
who had attacked Us rejoiced in Our defeat and in Our tribulation. We trusted
in the Lord. He gave Us Victory. Our Salvation is the Lord. Who here can fail
to trust in God, whose judgments are all righteous and who fails not those who
put their faith in Him. Has not the Lord, the mightier than mighty, once again
revealed that under the Kingdom of Heaven no one Government of man is greater
than another. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">We
do not forget that though the battle in the West is won, the battle in the East
continues. We offer Our tribute of admiration for the amazing feats of arms
that Our Allies are performing in that area. May they achieve an early victory.
There is no need for renewal of Our offer to send troops to fight against the
common enemy side by side in battle with the forces of Our Allies. Though Our
country Ethiopia, is now far from the scene of battle, Our thoughts are there.
All help which may be asked of Us, even the lives of Our people, will be given
willingly. We do not believe that distance need prevent Our land from giving
assistance in the common cause. </span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">May
it be taken as Divine significance, that, as We mark the passing of the Nazi
Reich, in America at San Francisco, delegates from all United Nations, among
whose number Ethiopia stands, are now met together for their long-planned
conference to lay foundations for an international pact to banish war and to
maintain World Peace. Our Churches pray for the successful triumph of this
conference. Without success in this, the Victory, We celebrate today, the
suffering that We have all endured will be of no avail. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">To
win the War; to overcome the enemy upon the field; cannot alone ensure the
Victory in Peace. The cause of War must be removed. Each Nation’s rights must
be secure from violation. Above all, from the human mind must be erased all
thoughts of War as a solution<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">. Then and only then will war cease.</span></span></div>
<div class="Default" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">May God grant
Us his every aid to speed the final Peace and keep it. </span></div>
