Challenging the good faith of the

"the nations Of the world have been
climbing painfully up the steps that
led to national independence and self

power with brute force to thrust the
nations back crushed and bleeding
into the chasm Of scrvitude. That is
what we have been fighting"
Replying to the German emperors
assertion that Germany is carrying on
defensive war, Premier Lloyd George
said:
"ne 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 modestly about defend
ing German soil. Who ever wanted to
invade Germany? Even now neither he
nor his new chancellor says that they
