Wednesday, - Foreign Secretary Balfour made a spirited reply in the house of com mons this afternoon to attacks by Ar thur Ponsonby Liberal member for Stirlingburgh, a pacifist. regarding the war aims of Great Britain and her allies, the published versions of which Mir. Ponsonby said did not tally with the proposals of the secret treaties Mir. Balfour in his response declared that President Wilson's statements on wal policy were absolutely identical iG spirit with those of the leaders of thought in Great Britain He did not think there had been in the whole history of the enemy more powerful state documents than those issued by the president of the United States When MT Ponsonby sterly charged that the allies were sheltering them selves behind the presidents reply to the Pope. continued Mir Balfour he presumed the member ment no more than that when a statement of policy was admirably made by the head of the great American republic, it might not be necessary, and very often was unnecessary, that it should be at once repeated on this side of the Atlantic. The British government. he contin- ued, had not refused a conference on war aims. but the problem presented enormous difficulties and in his be- lief friendy conversations were bet ter than a formal conference about the delicate matters.
 What was desired was a conference on war methods rather than war aims.
 Mir Balfour stated at length the government procedure concerning the agreements between the allies, He declared that Italy properly de- served some arrangement of territory in her favor
