Lloyd George Plans for the Future

I LLOYD GEORGE is as vigorous in address
X ing himself to the problems of reconstruct
ton as he was in organizing the resources OF
the United Kingdom for effective prosecution
OF the war He realizes that the return OF
peace brings with it possibilities no less
welghty to the government and the people
upon whose support It Is dependent than
those that they faced and overcame during
lhe long four years in which the life Of
the nation was at stake. and he loses no
time in directing the thought Of those charged
with this responsibility to the formulation of
policies which will preserve to the nation the
legitimate fruits of victory in national adjust
ment 10 changed world conditions that are
sure to follow the close OF the struggle
His address to the leading coalition peers
and commoners, in which he outlined some
of the policies necessary to apply to the work
or reconstruction, attcsts his far-seeing
craftsmanship in grasping the problems of
the future and the necessity of promptly en-
tering upon the undertaking of wisely solving
them. Mindful of the tremendous factor of
labor and the value of its cooperation in
the program of reconstruction. he indicated
that the victory to which it so patriotically
contributed must first Of all be utilized as
an impetus to reforms for which il had long
contended. With these reforms realized
there need be no apprehension in the prevail
ing revolutionary spirit. II wisely directed.
this spirit could be applied TO the establish
ment of conditions which would infuse the
whole social and political fabric with heal
thier life With national unity co-operation
and sacrifice he said, he feared neither rcvo-
Luton nor Bolshevikism in the future. But
he did fear reaction and discussion If party
spirit asserted itself and the reforms he SIM
ported were thrust aside under its short
sightcdness.
The question OF Irish home rule was another
problem which would have TO be solved
without needless delay. Home rule, he de-
clared, was essential but there must be no
coercion OF Northeast Ulster. Here he
touched fostering sore. Until this question
Is finally disposed Of. it will continue to be
Il morn In the flesh OF British politics Until

Corresponding with Soldiers.

l.. IT. H., Roanoke.-The War De-
partment has recently issued this order:
The dangers of inadvertently commu-
nicating valuable military information
to the enemy and the necessity of clos
ing every. possible gate against enemy
propaganda make 1t necessary that the
strictest attention be paid to the cor
respondence OF both officers and en-
listed men. Efforts are constantly be
ing made by strangers to find soldiers
with whom they may correspond, in
most cases innocenty enough. but the
opportunity which might be offered to
q wholesale propaganda in the army
sympathizers is obvious. All officers
and men are forbidden to insert ad-
vertisements or letters In any publica-
tion inviting strangers to communicate
with strangers In response to advertise
ments or other invitations. Officers in
command Of troops are directed not to
furnish names of men to any persons
who attempt in any manner to enter
into correspondence with soldiers with
whom they are personally unacquainted.
