WARNING REGARDING PEACE
BRITISH Official Tells Business Men
That Crisis Is Yet Ito Come,
Speaking At Banquet.

New York.-Warning that the "crlt-
ical moment" in the val is yet to come
was sounded here by Sir Henry Bah
ington Smith. acting British high COM
missioner to the United States, ad-
dressing a banquet which closed the
convention Of the American Manufact-
urers' Export association, called to
discuss after-the-war problems.
Victory is in our grasp" the com
missioner said. Central Europe is
crumbling, but the word ! should like
to speak is not a word of exultation,
but of warning.
The allied terms for an armistice
are now being formulated. They will
be such as to secure US against the re
newal of hostilities on the part of the
enemy. But until they are accepted
and executed we must not relax our
efforts. 1t is possible that Germany
may gather her forces once more for
a final struggle of resistance"
Concerning peace problems, Sir Hen
ry said that one of the first steps
should be the perfecting of an ECO
nomic association of the "a allied ma
lions which in effect already is in ex-
istence and an agreement on economic
principles to be applied in the relG
tons of such an association.
Other speakers included VIM. C.
Redfield, secretary of commerce.; Ed
ourd De Billy. of the French high COM
mission. and Frank A. Vanderbilt, pres
ident of the National City bank.
