NATIONS LEAGUE
 NOT PREVENT VAR
 GEODES THINKS

WASHINGTON, D. C.-British First Lord of the Admiralty Sir Eric Geedes said today that he believes that the establishment of a league of nations as outlined by President Wilson will not result in the de- velopment of a world in which no wars would occur, although he agreed that a world police force would be required to preserve order.
 England, he said, had in the past performed the policing on the high seas, and by means of her naval power had prevented Germany from crushing free nations, and he re- garded it as inconceivable that the British navy's supremacy would be surrendered.

 IN CAbL[GRAM

The following cablegram has just been received from Sir Eric Geddes, first lord of the British admiralty, in reply to the resolution adopted through the Four Minute Men of the Committee on Public Information on October 21, Trafalgar Day:
 'On behalf of the Board of Ad- miralty and the British navy, I beg to convey to you and your colleagues our very warmest thanks for the stirring message of appreciation and gratitude which you have conveyed to us in the form of resolution, passed by some thirty million people of the United States of America on Trafalgar Day. It is the tradi- ton, privilege and pride of the British navy to have borne the brunt of the sea warfare against the enemy, and there is no part of that duty which it carries out with greater zeal and personal affection than that of conveying and escort ing your splendid soldiers across the Atlantic. Ever since the first day when the forces of the United States joined the Allies, we have been proud to share with your navy our hourly perils and anxieties, and on behalf of the Royal Navy, I wish to assure the people of the United States that we on our part admire and appreciate more than we can express the wonderful enthusiasm of the great American people for the common cause, an enthusiasm which I have personally had the pleasure of witnessing recently in your own country, and which can not fail to insure the complete vic tory of the Allies. Your most ap- preciative message has been com municated to the British navy in all parts of the world.
 ERIC GEDDES,
 First Lord of the Admiralty,
 London"
