come note from the British press.
On the eve of the ships departure
from New York the London news
papers quoted from Premier As

on November 9, 1914, that Eng

no peace until German militarism is
crushed Along side the quota
tons from Asquith's speech were
editorial comments ridiculing the
Ford enterprise. The same papers
printed long stories from New York
kidding the peace cruise" There
were no signs that either British
fIiciaIdom, the press or the public is
watering in the determination to
carry the war to the very end.
The following quotation from an
editorial in the Spectator is typi
cal OF the expressions OF the press:
We must not only convince the
Germans that there is to be no
peace now. but convince them SO
thoroughly as to make it impossible
for them to relight the flames of
peace talk in Europe
We must muzzle the savage dog

a distinct surprise Only, a week

ton was hailed by Paris as q tribute
to his military ability. The fact
that The French censor allowed TO
pass a message denying the runor
