In speaking of the war situation Judge
Gary said here to-day:
II don't believe there are any signs
of an early peace from the information

Two years ago there could have been
a settlement on n pretty fair basis-one
which would have secured the integrity
of all the countries and with practically
the same geographical lines which ex-
listed when the war commenced, and
what is more important the establish
ment Of basis for the prevention OF
future wars. ! have some information
which leads me to that conclusion
In any event It is only a question Of
time when the Allies must be success
ful."
