ton, but OF any proposal to discuss
peace terms. This snare Lloyd
George has avoided,
The Guardian says that as the
speech invited Germany to be more
explicit. we do not then cast out
every idea of settlement, and the
neutral world cannot take exception
to this attitude
The Guardian notes that the speech
contained no hint OF the crushing of
Germany, but says discussion OF any
matter is conditioned on restitution.
In the truest form, it continues,
reparation is impossible, for the deep
est wrongs cannot be undone.
Security is Required.
Security we certainly require" the
Guardian continues. The best Sc
curity is the firm. unbrokeu front of
the alliance, fortified when the war
ends by universal league to enforce
peace. In such a league America
would play great part and its pres
encc alone would be no small secur-
ity."
Expressing the OPT ZION that Chan
cellor Won Bethmann-H ollweg will
admit, on reflection, that the pro-
posals of the entente allies, as out
lined by Lloyd George. formed a
basis for discussion. the Guardian
says:
There is in this. as in all coun-
tries at war, a great volume OF opin-
ion, too little vocal unfortunately i'll
favor Of serious effort on the part of
Europes statesmen to put an end to
the carnage which is destroying the
whole generation OF the young"
German View of Reparation.
Amsterdam. Dec. 20.-(Via Lon
don. )-Commenting on Premier
Lloyd Georges speech, the Tao
gliche Rundschau of Berlin says:
Preparation could be.demanded by
England only if Germany had d :
clared war on England, il we were to
blame for the war, if we had COM
mitted crimes against international
law and if we had been defeated"
The l al Anzeiger takes the
viewpoint that Mr.. Lloyd Georges
remarks about reparation are of no
value inasmuch as nothing has been
said thus far about peace conditions
This newspaper continues:
IF Lloyd George means to post
pone satisfying Europe's desire for
peace until the time when the entente
is successful in conquering Ger
many's armies and those OF its allies,
then the whole of Europe, as well as
Lloyd George, knows full we'll that
this announcement means eternal
war, unless it is ia the power of the

George supposes."
