PEACE WITHOUT WORLD FREEDOM
 NOT ACCEPTABLE
''NO Question of a Separate Pact," Declares Premier
 Asquith.

London, Nov. 9-"For us who know what sacrifices we are paying in pre- cious lives, Prime Minister Asouith said last night at the Lord Mayors banquet, "in the unceasing. pitiless drain upon our reservoir of potential promise and vitality-who have greater reason than we to long and pray for peace? Peace, yes, but on one condition only--that the war, with it's vast waste. its sacrifices, it's untold sufferings, it's glorious and undying example of courage and unselfishness, shall no have been in vain.
 No Separate Peace.
 There can be no question of a sep arate peace, and peace. when it comes, be it soon or late-and I will not dis guise from you for a moment my con- viction that the struggle will tax all our resources and our whole stock of patience and resolve-the peace must be such as will build upon sure and stable foundations the security of the weak, the liberties of Europe and a free future for the world.
 with, regard to the different meth ods of propaganda employed at diff ferent places with view to dividing the allies and influencing opinion in favor of separate peace, I desire to declare without hesitation or reserve that the allies are fighting in a com mon cause. that for the purposes of war their interests are identical and that victory securing those interests is, in our judgment, the only condi- ton of lasting peace
 As usual the banquet given by the new Lord Mayor (Sir William Henry Dump was attended by Cabinet Min isters, the diplomatic corps and men prominent in the military and naval world, including First Lord of the Balfour, Sir Walter Rob- ertson, chief of the Imperial Staff at army headquarters. and Lord Fisher. chairman of the Invention Board.

 Rule of Germanic Turkey. The Prime Minister began his ad-
 dress with a reference to Turkey, which country he described as "a subservient agent of German interests and ambitions, as was instanced by the fact that by lifting a finger Ger many might have arrested the Armen- ian horrors, but instead looked on un- moved, acquiescent and possibly even complacent. That is significant sample of what a continuance of the rule of Germanic Turkey. in Europe
 With regard to the Greek situation MT. Asquith wished he could speak with as much confidence as hope. t'The Entente allies went to Salonica as friends of both Greece and Ser bia." he said Their sole desire was to prevent Greece from becoming en- meshed in the Germanic net and to save her from internal strife. What ever apparently drastic measures have been taken were dictated solely by the necessity of preventing Athens from becoming the centre of German prop aganda and intrigue.
 "How could Greece possibly stand a1oof from war for the emancipa- ton of the smaller states? Greece first lit the torch of liberty in Europe and withstood the thrush of Eastern barbarism and tyranny. May Greece rekinIdle her lamp and show herself worthy of her immortal past.''
 Mr. Asquith refrained from any de- tailed review of the naval and n1iH- tary situation, but dwelt on the con- tinued Entente allied successes and said the British navy is ready, and more than ready, whenever opportu- nifty is offered it.
 'Iet there be no illusion about our enemies" he continued. ''They are great organizers and fine fighters in the field. They are also if not skillful yet indefatigable workers in, the sphere of propaganda, where they have a double motive-to divide the allies and capture neutral opinion.
 As to Neutral Trade
 ''The German suggestion of a sinis- ter design on the part of the Entente allies to combine against neutral countries and build up an inpenetra- ble stone wall against their trade is a childish fiction, which could only mean that the allies were bent upon economic suicide. It ought to be un- necessary to affirm that when the time comes for peace nothing will be 1 more essential for the Entente allies. from the standpoint of simnls saIf-
