PREMIER OUTLINES
TERMS OF PEACE
LLOYD GEORGE DECLARES GER
MAN AMBITIONS FOR WORLD
CONQUEST CHECKED,
Challenges the Good Faith of the Ger
man Emperor and Chancellor Mich
aelis in Their Peace Talk
Would Eliminate War.

London. - Premier David Lloyd
George, just returned from entente al
lied conferences, speaking on August
4 at great patriotic meeting in the
Queens hail to mark the third ami
versary of the war, declared that Ger
man ambitions for world conquest had
been checked and that before Great
Britain enters peace conference the
Germans must learn the full meaning
Of the word 'restoration" and "Iearn
to utter that word to begin with"
Challenging the good faith of the
German emperor and Chancellor Mich
aelis in their peace talk, which he de-
nounced as a subterfuge for the Prus-
sian war lords to gain time for the
next time, the premier shouted:
"There must be no more next timel
Don't let us repeat this horrorl
LET us be generation that man
fully, courageously and resolutely
eliminated war from amongst the
tragedies of human life. Let us make
victory, at any rate, so complete that
national liberty, whether for great ma
tons or for small nations can never
again be challenged
the nations of the world have been
climbing painfully up the steps that
led to national independence and self
resi- ect and now comes a great
power with brute force to thrust the
nations back crushed and bleeding
into the chasm of servitude. That is
what we have been fighting"
Replying to the German emperor's
assertion that Germany is carrying on
defensive war, Premier Lloyd George
said:
''He knows, he must know, that that
is untrue That is not why he went to
war. That is not why he is at war
now. He talks m0destly about defend
ing German soil. Who ever wanted to |
invade Germany? Even now neither he
nor his new chancellor says that they |
will be satisfied with German soil"
