Urge British Action at Once.

London.-The House of Lords dis

of nations after the war. Viscount
Bryce urged the government to open
an inquiry into the subject and to let
the world know that it was doing so.
Ea-l Curzon of Kedlcston, government
leader in the House of Lords. agreed
with Viscount Bryce that there was
no reason why, without waiting for
the termination of the war. the Gov
ernment should not discuss the pro-
posal for league o. nations, which he
said ought to be called into existence
Immediately the war was ended. To
a large extent the league of nations
existed already, said Curzon, who cit
ed the league Of the British empire
and the league of more than twenty
nations allied to resist German mill
tarism. There also was in existence
in Paris machinery representing
Graat Britain, France, Italy and the
United States for unity in naval, mil
itary and economic matters.
