People Alone Can
Save New Russia

Democracy in this country will
stand to the last by the democracies of
France and Italy. We should be proud
to fight to the end side by side with
the new Russian democracy. So would
America, France and Italy. But if the
present rulers of Russia act independ-
emily we have no means to arrest the
catastrophe. Russia can only be saved
by her own people.
can independent Poland, comprising
all genuinely Polish elements who de-
sire to participate, is an urgent neces-
sity for the stability of Western Eu-
rope.
Though we agree with President
Wilson that the breaking up of Austria
Hungary is no part Of our war aims, we
feel that unless genuine self-govern-
ment on true democratic principles is
granted those Austro- Hungarian ma
tionalities who have long desired it it
is impossible to hope for the removal
of those causes Of unrest in that part
OF Europe which have so long threat
ened its general peace
ON the same grounds, we regard as
vital the legitimate claims of the Ital-
ians tor union with those of their own
race and tongue. We also mean to
press that justice be done to the men
or humanlan blood and speech in their
legitimate aspirations. II these condi-
tons were fulfilled Austria Hungary
would become a power whose strength
would conduce to the permanent peace
and freedom of Europe, instead of the
instrument Of pernicious Prussian
military autocracy.
Outside of Europe we believe that
the same principles should be annl;ed

IN our Judgment, entitled to recogni-

former sovereignty the territories to

Much has been said about the ar

can only say that, as new circum-
stances, such as the Russian collapse

"Respecting the German colonies
they are held at the disposal of con
terence whose decision must have pri-
mary regard to the wishes and inter
ests of their native inhabitants. The
governing consideration in all these
cases must be that the inhabitants
shall be placed under control of an
administration acceptable to them
selves, one of whose main purposes
Will be to prevent their exploitation
tor the benefit Of European capitalists
or governments"
The chiefs and councils, said the
Premier, were competent to consult
with and speak for their tribes, and
thus to separate their wishes and in.
terests rerarding their disposal.
Finally" continued the Premier

Done in violation of international law

British labor. Mr.. Henderson added
warmly welcomes the main princinles
laid down by the Russian government
but it rejects } as completely as the
Bolsheviki themselves any idea Of max

"In essentials we agree with the Boil

Three Conditions
Must Be Fulfilled

we are fighting for q just and last
ing peace" declared the Premier in con-
clusion. "Three conditions must he
fulfilled. Firstly, the sanctity of treat
les must be reestablished; secondly.
territorial settlement must be based on
the right of self-determination ar tho
consent of the governed; lastly. the
creation OF an international oreaniza-
tioh TO limit armaments and diminish
the probability of war.
lo secure those conditions the Brit
greater sacrihces."
Arthur Henderson, leader OF tha
Labor party in the House of Commons
to-night stated 1t was his opinion that
Brltlsh labor would welcome Premier
Lloyo Georges statement of the MINIS
lor whlch Great Britain is fighting in
the world war. "In some respects y
MT Henderson said, at embodies tba
principles and the objects which labor
at our recent conference, defined as os,
sential to the war aims"
Labor stands for the absolute FREQ
4om q ana integrity of Belgium, Serbia
Kumanla and Montenegro, and for the
establishment on a firm basis of q
league OF nations and peoples for dis
armament and the prevention of futnro
wars. he pointed out.
These things" Mr.. Henderson con-
t'nued, constitute our irreduciblt
MINIMUM and: if we secure this. We
desire the fullest resumption Of in.
'ernatlonal intercourse and the com.
plete reputation Of all attempts q:
an economic war or a boycott. So FAY
as the Premier's statement conforms
to these principles we welcome if
and we are convinced that no othe,
settlement can be consistent with the
expressed desire for peace which as
ne says, will not contain within it the
