David Lloyd George, the premier,
so declared in an address.
I'VE propose to demand the whole
cost of the war from Germany" the
premier added. 1.-The imperial COM
mission believes this can be done
without injuring British interests"
He estimated the allied war bill
would reach f24,OO0,O00, (nearly
$4,000, OOO,OO0).
$50 far as justice is concerned, we
have the right to demand that Ger
many pay the whole cost" he con-
tinued, "but we must exact payment
in such a way that it will not harm
the credit of the country receiving.
LAS all of the allies are in the same
boat, we shall put in our demands all
together. And whatever the demands
are they must come first, even before
Germany's own war debt"
Concerning CONSUMPTION in Europe,
the premier asserted:
'If we want permanent peace, and
to prevent repetition of the horrors
of this war; we must end the con-
script armies Of the continent.
There is an irresistible desire on
the part of the heads of those ma
chimes to try their luck. The Ger

UNIVERSAL TRAINING
OUTLINED BY BAKER
Would Require Nine Months Ser'
vice in Field and Barracks.

Washington, Dec. 12.-While moth.
ing has yet been made public con-
corning details Of the bill for univer'
sal military training proposed by the
general staff, copies of the measure
have been seen by various persons.
In general, the bill may be describ,
ed as follows:
The new army would be called the
national army or simply the United
States army. A period of nine
months training would be provided
for. For the first month the recruits
would remain in the barracks for
equipment, classification and medical
examination, this to be followed by
five months of intensified training in
the field The last three months
would consist largely Of class work at
cantonments.
A young man when he became nine
teen would be liable for training. 1t
could be postponed until he is twenty
six years Of age on account of his
health or any other legitimate reason.
If it would interfere with his educa-
ton. the time of taking the training
could be deferred.
