January 4.
The measure. introduced in the
house after the president made his
special address to congress, carries be-
hind the full weight and influence of
the chief executive.
Section 10 of the measure reads !:
1.-THE federal control of transportation
systems herein and heretofore pro-
yided for shall continue for and dur
ing the war and until congress shall
thereafter order otherwise"
The bill was introduced by Chair
man Sims of the house interstate COM
mittee, who Will handle the legislation
In the lower branch. The measure is
understood to have been prepared
after consultation with Director Gen
eral McAdoo.
II carries with 1t guarantees that

met railway operating income" for the
three years ending June 30, 1917, stip-
unlates that the government shall

ALLIED PEACE CODE
BRITISH PREMIER POINTS OUT
WAY GERMANY MAY END
WORLD WAR.
Let Captive Nations Vote as to Rule,
With International Police to Crush
Out War, Teutons to Pay
for Damage Done.

London.-David Lloyd George, the
British prime minister, on January .
set forth Great Britain's war aims
more specifically and at greater
length before the delegates of the
trades unions than he had ever done
before. Having first declared that it
was not a war of aggression against
Germany or the German people, and
that the breaking up of the German
people or the disintegration of their
state was not one of the objects for
which the allies were fighting, he pro-
ceeded to mention the fundamental is
sues for which Britain and her allies
were contending.
First among these was the restora-
ton of Belgium and reparation for
the injuries inflicted. Next came the
restoration of Serbia, Montenegro and
the occupied parts of France, Italy
and Rumania. France must have AL
sace-Lorraine and to this end, the pre-
mier said, the British nation would
stand by the French democracy to the
death.
Independent Poland Necessary.
The question of Russia was touched
upon, and Mr.. Lloyd George said that
Britain, as well as America, France
and Italy, would have been proud to
fight by the side of the new Russian
democracy. But now Russia could only
be saved by her own people. He de-
clared an Independent Poland an ur-
gent necessity for the stability of
western Europe.
Rumania is to be protected, and the
British and other allies are with Italy
In her desire for complete union of the
people of the Italian race and tongue.
OF Austria-Hungary, he felt that,
while the breaking up of the dual king
dom was no part of the allied war
aims, 1t was impossible to hope for the
removal of causes of unrest in that
part of Europe unless genuine self
government was granted the Austro-
Hungarian nationalities.
Straits Must Be Neutral.
The Turkish empire, within the
of the Turkish race, with
Constantinople as its capital, may be
But the passage between
the Mediterranean and Black sea must |
be internationalized and neutralized, |
and in the British view, Arabia, Arme-
MIA, MesOpotamia, Syria and Palestine |
are entitled to recognition of their sep |
arate national conditions.
The matter of the German colonies,
all of which are now in the hands of
The allies, will be placed before con-
ference, whose decision, however, must
the wishes and interests of
he inhabltants-the future admin
stration must be acceptable to the
various tribes.
The premier made brief reference to
he violations of international law by
Germany, with special emphasis on the
sea, and the peace conference, he de-
dared, must not lose sight of the out
ages suffered by British and other
,eamen and the services they had rem
Tered.
