LLOYD GEORGES FAITH IN
FINAL OUTCOME Is FiRM
"Sinule Front, Single Army, Single
Nation, is Program Requisite
for Victory"


Paris.--"A single front, single
army. single nation--that is the pro-
gram requisite for future victory"
said Premier Painleve at luncheon
In honor of David Lloyd George, the
British prime minister, who has just
returned from the Italian war zone.
and Signor Barenini. Italian minister
OF education. "If after 40 months of
war. after all the lessons the war was
taught us. the allies were not capable
OF, that sacred international union,
then in spite OF their sacrifices they
would not be worthy of victory"
In discussing the manner of accom-.
plishment Of this fusion. to which the
allies have long aepired, NJ. Painleve
said:
THE enemies alliance realized
unity OF effort by brutal discipline,
one OF the peoples among them hav.
ing mastered the others and rendered
them serviceabie. But we are free
peoples. We do not admit of subjec-
tion to other peoples in time OF war.
That independence Is at the same
time source OF strength and weak
ness. of strength because of their ca.
pacity for resistance which is un-
known to subject peoples. and weak
ness because IL renders more difficult
coordination OF military operations.
To reconcile this independence with
the need for unity OF direction which
is required to achieve an efficacious
war policy will be the work of the
inter-allied war committee or OF the
superior war council just created by
the allies
Premier Lloyd George, ailuding to
centralized direction OF the allied
efforts, said:
Unfortunately we did not have
time to consult the United States or
Russia before creating this council
The Italian disaster necessitated ac-
ion without delay to repair It,
But, In order to assure the com
plete success OF this great experiment.
which I believe Is essential to the vic
tory of our cause, II will be necessary
that all our great allies be repre-.
sented In the deliberations. am
persuaded that we shall obtain the
consent of these two great countries.
and their cooperation"
