London, Sept 20.-David Lloyd
George, minister of munitions, in an
swer to a statement made by a con-
stituent, makes an appeal to the pub
lie to give the government a fair
chance to decide the question of COM
pulsory service and reiterates his view
that the situation is a serious one,
which demands that the country, if
victory is to fall to the allies, must
exert its whole strength. Mr.. Lloyd
George says:
"You say, and say rightly, that the
government ought to give the nation
a lead on the question whether the
moral obligation fevery able-bodied
man to defend the country should be
converted during this war into a legal
obligation.
"The government, l can assure you,
is fully alive to the necessity for Civ
ing a definite lead. They are exam
lining the subject with the view of
coming to a right decision. Undue
delay might be disastrous, but undue
precipitation might be equally disas-
trous. Let us avoid both. The issue
is one of fact, not of principle

Irrigation Congress Meets.

Sacramento, Cal.-"The Wrecks of
Irrigation Projects Strewp Through
out the West" furnished a text for
Max Thelen, president of the railroad
commission of California, speaking
here before the International Irriga-
ton congress. These ruins, he saidj
were themselves the reason why east
ern bond houses no longer cared for
irrigation securities, eastern maya
zines had slowed down on glowing ar
ticles and eastern investors and set
tiers stayed where they were. The
remedy he offered was the California
system of public irrigation projects
and state control of private ones, with
complete government ownership and
control as a final resort.
