Crown and Commonwealth lnthe New Elizabethan Age Our Queen is crowned We have now entered the new Elizabethan age an age in which the Royal Crown encircles not only the ancient glories of particular people but the hope and promise of broadening life for hundreds of millions of others In Westminster Abbey yesterday the Queen became Elizabeth the Second by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom Canada and Her other Realms and Territories Queen Head of the Commonwealth Defender of the Faith Speaking to bill changing the Royal Style and titles as above for use in Canada Prime Minister Louis St Laurent said at the meet ing of prime ministers of the Commonwealth In January 1951 that the Commonwealth was an effective instrument for the good of free mankind throughout the whole world Just what is the relationship between the Crown and the Commonwealth In relation to the Crown we are mystics Our Queen is not person exalted above us by Divine Right nor person of our own choosing We haven part in her dignity but she does llotachieve that dignity at our will Queen Elizabeth is the unimpeachable figure of all that is good in government and her crown is symbol which stands above crccdsand parties Today in materi alistic age when the world is threatened by dangers never before known the British Monarchy endures in noble strength In essence it is the exaltatlon of dutiful exam ple as opposed to the hazards of ruling by the mailed fist and the fleeting greatness of dictatorship There are people we realize who deride the idea of the coronation rites as being out dated This hammer is actually virtue How could the stability and continuity of the national history be more impressively shown Our Queen was crowned with the same ritual as that with which her predecessors have been crowned for more than thousand years It is theoldest state ceremonial in Britdllllind perhaps the oldest in the W0rld Ilet us remember one thing The forms are ancient but the spirit embodied in them neggr grows old from the pages of history there has come forgthe Commonwealth countries the philg osophy of responsible government not rep resentative government only but that sort ofijcsponsible government whichjsgiven by an executive accountable to parliamentary majority bound to heed the advice it re cables from parliament As headlof such government the Queen has three rights the right to be consulted the right to en courage and the right to warn The acts wishes and example of the sovereign are real power in government WE Gladstone who was four times Prime Minister of Britain wrote in his Gleauings of Past Years Thereis nota doubt that the aggregate of direct influence normally exercised by the sovereign upon the coun sels and proceedings of her ministers is considerable in amount tends to permanence and solidity of action and confers must benefit on the country without in the small est degree relieving the advisers of the Growth from their individual responsibility Peoplcgwho are casual readers of history may think that the sovereignty of the Crown has been whittled down to the vanish ing point but apparent encroachments upon the Crown have added to its true dignity The formal powers of theCrown under Queen Elizabeth II are virtually the same as those which belonged to it under Edward VIrThe Queen is still the supreme executive authority the Queen in Parliament is still the fountain of mum and the fountain of justice The Queen is still commander of Gathermilltary forces of the realm The Crown insufficiently strong to erfsure the peace and order of society and yet not sufficiently strong to disregard the wishes and happiness of the community The function of the Crown astherountalni head of justice is oneyof its greatest virtues No matter how elaboratcthe machinery of logislatiuh and administration Inight be the life or the individual citizen could be rendered miserable by any defect or delay in the administration Lof justice The Queu 951 Bmirixamirr cannot at her pleasure alter the laws of the land but in her coronation vow she sets the standard for all those who are charged with making and maintaining the law The charge given her is Be so merciful that you be not too remiss so execute justice that you forget not mercy Punish the wick ed protect and cherish the just and lead your people in the way wherein they should go Tile British system of government has roots which go so deep into the past that scarcely feature of its proceedings and powers can be made intelligible without re ference to history The Crown has acquired overwhelming sig nificance as the core and symbol of Com monwealth unity The formal centralizing institutions of the Empire have disappeared one by one as Empire developed into Com monwealth but the status of the Crown had been progressively exalted Last year saw variety introduced into the Queens titles but the Crowns unique unifying influence remains The parliamentary institutions of the Commonwealth countries are the guar antee of democratic strength and it is tremendous stabilizing influence to have at the head of these institutions monarch who is independent of and outside politics It was under the Crown that Britains free institutions were born and brought up To day the Commonwealth is an association of people as wall as of countries There are spiritual psychological and intellectual forces drawing them together despite their differences of race religion language liter ature law and economic influences The broadening of the Commonwealth by inclusion of republics for example does not diminish but rather enhances the importance of the symbolism which indicates its sense of unity and common purpose The Com monwealth has no spidcrweb of contractual relations It is held in no parchmont bonds or hard steel shackles The unique relation of the Crown to all the selfgoverning na tions the republics the territories and the colonies makes possible their equality of status and enables them to advance in self government without violent constitutional changesn No matter what its present condition is politicaliyiin every country of the Common wealth there haveibeen planted seeds of freedomcivilization and culture To every countryuhderthe Crown have been carried freelrgutiohs andthe rule of law It is manifest that strong national feeling is not incompatible withfree association under the Crown This was nowhere more clearly shown than in the case of India About to become republic that countrypositively expressed desire remain afull member of the Commonwealth The OommonWealth over which the Queen reigns is far from perfect but ityis being constantly improvedbecause of criticism by its own people through their legislatures their press and their institutions Through out all its affairs blows the cleansing windof democracy based on freedom of speech of the press and of aspociatlon Having dedicated herself to maintenance of these freedoms the Queen received the Crown She received it as it wasgiven in spirit free from ancient grudges as the sym bol of her unity with her people and as an emblemof the unity of her people Long Live The Queenl
