ondon. Oct. 22.-"We have scan ned inc horizon intently' said Pre- n,5er Lloyd George today, and can zae no terms in sight which will lead .h enduring peace. The only terms now possible would mean an armed !fuce. ending in an even more frightful struggle
 Mir Lloyd George said Germany Would make peace now only on the tsrms which would enable her to Benefit by the war He said that nould be encouragement to every |b.iccanneering empire in the future fD repeat the experiment.
 The premier said he had hoped {be enemy's terrible power migkI be broken this year, but that the Temporary collapse of the Russian military power has postponed this hope. But time is on the side of the alies. he said. Time once was neu- ltral. but two things have changed fhis the advent of America and the 'increasine failure of the German Submarine war.
 Allies in Harmony. The allies are working in the |greatest harmony, the premier con- ainued. He said they are on the Eve of the most important inter-al- Bied conference ever held, at which For the first time representatives of America and of the Russian democ- raey would be present He said the conference means to determine the ultimate issue of the war. More than twice as many German Submarines were lost in the first 10 months of this year as in all of last year, the premier said The British tonnage lost monthly now is not much more than oHe-third of that destroyed last April.
 Mir. Lloyd George said that "Bolo- ism, in all it's shapes and forms should be looked for.
 Beware of people who try to sow dissension. distrust and suspicious, he said The enemy is trying to rattle our nerves. Keep steady and we will win"
 Must Dethr0ne Force"
 The war" said the premier, is terrible in effect but more terrible ia the possibilities it reveals of new horrors on land and sea and in the air. It must be settled now, once for all, he declared. If the war should be renewed after 30 years would mean the death of civiliza- more of scientific application, it ton. Brute force must be dethroned forever"
 To realize what the advent of America meant the premier said it Is necessary only to look back on the rapid growth of the little British army America is now starting. and it's resources in man power are twice those of Britain.
 British shipbuilding, said the pre- mier, has increased fourfold and America has done likewise. Ger many laughed at the war deelara- tiOns of China and other nations, but those declarations meant that most of the worlds food and raw are under flags of Ger many's enemies, which will reduce Germany to impotence and desola- lion.
 Prepare for Long War"
 The way to shorten the war, said Ar. Lloyd George, is to prepare for long war. He added:
 I am not going to predict when his war will end No man in his senses would prolong the war an hour longer than necessary to se- 'ure a lasting peace, not a prelude .o a more devastating war"
 The premier said eyes must be sept steadfastly on the great pur- pose of the war, which was destrue- ion of the false idea to which would nave intimidated and enslaved Eu- 'ope if it had triumphed.
 Our real enemy" he continued, IS the war spirit fostered in prus- 'ia There will be no peace in the world until the shrine of the war 'pirit in Potsdam is shattered and ts priesthood is dispersed and dis 'ersed for ever"
