BRITISH WILL NOT
GIVE UP HER NAVY
Lloyd-G George Declares 1t Is
A Defensive Weapon
END DRAFTED FORCES
British War Cost Exceeded
That Of Germany BY A
Big Sum
END DRAFTED FORCES

London, !, Dec 12.--Spealdng at
Bristol, Premier Lloyd-George said
the English military service act was
passed in order to meet great emer-
gency. When that emergency was
passed the need was passed and the
act would lapse He added that there
was no intention to renew it.
Whether Great Britain would re-
quire conscription in the future In
any shape or form, Mr.. Lloyd.George
said, depended not upon the opinion
which he now expressed but upon
the peace terms which were made.
Continuing, the prime minister said:
"Wha/ drove us to conscription was
the existence Of conscript armies on
the continent that inevitably rushed
the world into war. If you want u
permanent peace; If you want TO pre-
vent the horrors OF this war from be-
ing repeated, you must put an end TO
conscript armies on the continent OF
Europe.
"We did not have the machinery
for an offensive war. Our navy is
81 defensive weapon and not an Of
fensfve one; and that is why we do
not mean to give IT. up. We have
kept these islands free from invasion
for centuries and we mean to take no
risk in the future"
A voice interrupted: "Then watch
Wilson,"
The premier replied: "Well, I hope
to meet him in fortnight. | will
tell him what You say. Wherever the
request comes from, we are not going
to give up the protection Of the navy,
NO far as Great Britain Is concerned" !"
Mr.. Lloyd-George declared that the
decision which would he taken in the
next few months in the peace CON
ference was going to leave mark
upon the world. The ages to come.
he said. would he able TO reap the
fruits OF 1t.
The premier next dealt with the
question OF indemnity He declared
the war had cost Germany less than
1t had cost Great Britain. II had
cost Great Britain cS,000, 900 600, a
gigantic sum. The German bilf, he
believed, was 10000. 900 or G7-
100000, 900. He contended it. was in
defensible that the person who was
tn the wrong and had lost should pay
less than the person who was de-
clared to be In the right and had won

empire, has submitted protest to
the allied governments against ltal-
ian administration In the occupied
territories of Dalmatia, lstria and

ceived by the Jugo.Slav press bureau

In its representation TO the allies

who misbehaved, and large number
Of soldiers from the Irorticth regi-
ment were taken to camp under

TALKS HUN TERMS
Chancellor Discusses Russian
Situation Before Reichstag.
Despite "Surrender," Germans
Continue Russian Invasion.
(By the Associated Press.)

Count Won Hertling. the imperial
chancellor. will address the German
reichstag today on foreign affairs
probably with most attention to the
Russian situation and the peace terms
now offered by Germany. The chan
cellor has not yet replied to the recent
war aims statements by President Will
son and Premier Lloyd George, and if
he speaks he may take this oppor-
tunity to state Germany's case once
more.
Russia, as represented by the Boil
sheviki government, has agreed to the
German peace terms for second time
within a week. After the first agree
ment the Bolsheviki decided to fight
but the military activity on their part
apparently did not halt by one step
the German invasion. Germany, as a
result of the Bolsheviki attempt to
wage war, increased her terms in the
last peace ultimatum, which virtually
cuts off from Russian domination all
western territory added to Great Rus
STA since the time of Peter the Great
Already 45 Miles Beyond Minsk.
Except in Livonia and ESthonia
where small detachments made slight
resistance, the Germans are progress
ing unhampered along the entire line
from the Gulf of Finland to the
Ukraine. In the north they are ap-
preaching Reval, the naval base, and
behind the invading troops. The Boil
sheviki commander. Ensign Krylenko,
has asked the German staff if Russia s
acceptance of peace terms does not
revive the armistice broken a week
ago by the German advance on Dvinsk.
,, German reports say the internal situa-
ton in Russia is most serious.
There has been no increase in the
fighting activity on the western and
Italian fronts. British troops have re-
pulsed German raiding parties in the
Ypres sector, while the artillery has
been active north of Arras On the
French front there have6b been intense
artillery duels at several points along
the line from Verdun to Switzerland.
Repulsed by Americans.
Large troop movements behind the
German lines at night are reported
from the American sector northwest
of Toul The artillery hombardment
there has been most intense. Little
damage was done by the German gun
fire. AttempS by German patrols to
reach the American trenches were
futile.

WHEN YOU WAKE
UP DRINK GLASS
OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins from
system before putting more
food into ston1ach.
Says inside-bathing makes anyone
look and feel clean, sweet
and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside
This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri-
ties into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. Ifthis waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts
which should suck only nourishment
to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it,
which is a harmless way to wash
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels; thus cleansing. sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach. !
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make anyone
an enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men
and women who are accustomed to
wake up with a dull, aching head or
have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, sallow complexion, others who
have bilious attacks, acid stomach or
constipation are assured of pro-
nounced improvement in both health
and appearance shortly.-Adv.
