Lloyd George Energies From Minister

Hostile Press Changes Attitude-Pre
misTs Speech Makes Good I'm
preston.
London, Nov. 20.-The reception Of
Premier Lloyd Georges speech in the
house Of commons by the morning
newspapers justifles the assumption
that the storm which lately threaten
ed crisis has passed, not only with
out damaging the premiers hold on
the country but perhaps even strength
ening it. It is conceded even by his
opponents that the speech was in the
|premier's best manner and was; q par
triumph. Editorial COM
ment flows freely from his supporters
while the comments Of hostile critics
lack the ferceness Of previous denun-
citation.
The Daily News, which has been hos
tile to the premier, says his reply yes
terday concerning the military council
contrasts with his Paris speech and
asks that If the council Is only to be
a body concerning which everybody is
agreed. what reason was there for the
sensational talk in Paris.
The Morning Post, another critic, OBJ
jects again to the premier's proposal.
1t says it may not work for unity but
for division and paralysis which result
from a conflict of expert opinion.
The Graphic says the speech failed
entirely to clear up the situation and
wonders why the tone of the Paris
speech was one of utmost candor while
the one in the house was so optimistic.
Other editorials hall the Premier as a
victor. The Daily Express says the
speech demonstrated Premier Lloyd
George is the inevitable head Of the
nation and urges him now to rid the
ship Of state Of the barnacles still
clinging to it."
U. S.-British Conference.
None Of the numerous allied war
councils which have been held in the
past three years have occasioned the
same interest as today's historic meet
ing Of the American war mission and
the British cabinet for Tightening the
links that chain the Anglo-American
war efforts.
Lord Reading, the lord chief justice,
will preside with Andrew Bonar Law,
British chancellor of the exchequer,
and Oscar T. Crosby, assistant secre-
tary Of the American treasury at the
table beside him.
The military and naval heads Of both
government and officials representing
other departments Of war work will be
grouped together.
Premier Lloyd-George planned to be
present for the purpose of answering
questions.

CURRENT COMMENT
Expect a German Atrocity.

( II has been such n habit for the Ger
man army stan to prepare for any meas
ure which would be likely to shock pub
lie sentiment by alleging that it was a
reprisal for similar measures taken by
the enemy that ii would hardly come as
q surprise if it should appear that French
prisoners OF war are 20 be used TO bar
the campaign OF the allies in the west.
At the outbreak of the war there We're
false allegations as To the dropping Of
bombs on German territory, the stroci-
ties in Belgium were defended by false
hoods, the use OF poison gas asd liquid
fame was prepared for by charges that
the French were making this reprisal
necessary the illegal use OF submarines
was represented as a reprisal for the
hungry war" and now the charge that
the French are putting prisoners under
gunfre is unpleasantly suggestive of
deliberate plan for compelling the French
to fire on their own countrymen. 1t IL
to be hoped that the recent German proc
bears less sinister meaning;
that use of captives has long been out
lawed in war.--Springtield Republican.

A Mummy's Doll.

Among the ancient objects exhibited
in the British museum is doll more
than 5000 years old. When some ar
chaeologists were exploring an ancient
Egyptian royal tomb they came upon
a sarcophagus containing the mummy
OF little princess seven years old.
She was dressed and inferred In a
manner BETTING her rank, and In her
arms was found little wooden doll.
The inscription gave the name, rank
and age Of the little girl and the date
of her death, but 1t said nothing about
the quaint little wooden Egyptian doll.
This, however, told Its own story. 1t
was so tightly clasped in the arms of
the mummy that 1t was evident that
the child had died with her beloved
doll In her arms.

Discrimination Against Vermont
Products.

Some time ago the Vermont state
board of health established a regulation
that Ice cream must contain at least II
per cent Of butter fat in order to be
standard and that nut and fruit makes
must contain at least II per cent. This
was wise move, ensuring Vermont con-
sumers of this delicacy the worth OF their
money and healthful food product The
Vermont manufacturers Of this commodi
! ty promptly complied with the regula-
/ ton
| When an effort was made to enforce
| this regulation against New York manu-
facturers. trouble was at once expert
enced New York has no legal standard
for ice cream products, while Massachu-
sets requires only eight per cent Of
butter fat in Ice cream.
Interested parties in New York Sc
cured an injunction preventing the YER
mont authorities from interfering with
the sale of their ice cream in Vermont.
lit was held that the board of health
was really legislating when they under
took to fix the per cent OF butter fat that
should be contained in the ice cream
brought into the state, constituting in
teIslhie c0fHHltfCe.
As result OF these developments
Vermont dealers in ice cream have been
compelled to maintain the standard es-
tablished, while dealers from the out
side could sell frozen skim milk shake
or a combination Of glucose and other
materials that never saw bovine in
competition with our own people to the
disadvantage of both Vermont dealers
and Vermont customers.
A bill has been introduced in the legis-
lature to remedy this whole situation.
We have not had an opportunity to
study the measure, and there may be |
some provisions in detail which should |
be modified. The principle underlying
the measure is right, however.
Vermont is trying to gain new mar
kets, and to this end is seeking to raise
the grade of its products. We should
insist on the same rule for all products
so far as sale in our own state is con
cerned. While keeping up the grade of
our own products, we should not discrim-
mate against our own dealers and in fa-
epr of outside producers of any COM
