Second Question Considered.

The second question was the oues-
tion of indemnities, the premier add
ed. In every court of justice through
out the world the party which lost
has had to bear the cost of the litiga-
ton. When Germany defeated France
she established the principle, and
there was no doubt that the principle
was the right one. Germany must
pay the cost of the war up to the
limit of her capacity.
But 1 must use one word of warn
ing" said Mr.. Lloyd George. I'VE
have to consider the question of Ger
many's capacity. Whatever happens
Germany is not to be allowed to nav
the indemnity by dumping cheap
goods upon us. That is the only limit
in principle we are laying down. She
must not be allowed to pay for her
wanton damage and devastation by
dumping cheap goods and wrecking
our industries.
There is third and last point. Is
no one to be made responsible for the
war? Somebody has been responsible
for a war that has taken the lives of
millions of the best young men of
Europe. Is not any one to be made
responsible for that? If not all I can
say is that if that is the case there is
one justice for the poor wretched
criminal and another for kings and
emperors."

George, the British prime minister, in
speech at Newcastle today said the
victory of the entente allies had been
due to the ceaseless valor of their
men, and that it would be lesson to
anybody who. in the future. thought

island in their reckoning"
we are now approaching the peace
conference" the premier continued.
The price of victory is not ven-
geance nor retribution, 1t is
prevention. First of all what
about those people whom we have
received without questions for years
to our shores; to whom we give equal
rights with our own sons and daugh-
ters. and who abused that hospitality
to betray the land, to plot against
security, to spy upon it and to gain
such information as enabled the

the land that had received them as

offenses Against Law of Nations

Mr.. Lloyd George declared that
there were two offenses against the
law of nations that had been COM
mitted.
"one," he said, 'is the crime against
humanity in the deliberate plotting of
the great war. The other is the out
rage upon International law. 1t is a
crime. brutal crime, to devastate
the lands of another. Whoever dfd
that ought to be responsible for it, ,
1.-The submarine warfare did not
mean only the sinking of ships. but it
was crime against humanity in that
it sank thousands of harmless mer-
chantmen. In the whole history of
warfare between nations that had
never been sanctioned. 1t is rank
piracy. and the pirates must receive
the punishment.
'T mean to see that the men who
did not treat our prisoners with hu-
manity are to be made responsible.
1 want this country to go to court
with a clean conscience, and she will
do so. There is not a stain on her
record. We will not be afraid to ap-
pear before any tribunal.

Matters for Investigation.

'.Now these are the things which
we have tt investigate. We mean
that the l. estigation shall be an
impartial Q a perfectly fair one.
We also m, that it shall be a
stern one, a,iu that it shall go on to
the final reckoning.
I'VE have got SO to act now that
men in the future who feel tempted
to follow the example of the rulers
who plunged the world into this war
will know what is awaiting them at
the end Of it. We shall have to see
that this terrible war, which has in
ficted so much destruction on the
world; which has arrested the course
of civilization and in many ways put
it back; which has left marks on the
minds. upon the physique and the
hearts Of myriads in many lands that
this generation will not see obliter-
ated-we must see by the action we
take now, just. fearless and relent-
less. that it is a crime that shall
never again be repeated in the history
Of the world"
