GERMANY MUST PAY COST 0F WORLD WAR TO VERY
 LIMIT OF HER FINANCIAL CAPACITY IN NDEMNT|ES
Germany Will Not Be Allowed to Pay Her Indemnity For Wanton Vandalism By Dumping Cheap Goods
 and Wrecking Industries.

London, Nov. 29 British Wireless Service. .)-David Lloyd George the British prime minister, in a speech at New Castle today, said the victory of the entente allies had been due to the ceaseless valor of their men and that it would be lesson anybody in he future thought that they, as the Prussian war lords hoped. could ov- erlook this little island in thei reck- oning.'
 we are now approaching the peace conference the premier continued. l "The price of victory is not venge- ance nor retribution. It is prevention. First of all, what about those people whom we have received without ques- 1 ttion for years to our shores: to whom ! we give equal rights with our own sons and daughters and who abhsed l that hospitality to betray the land, to 1 plot against secority to spy upon it and to gain such information as en- abled the Prussian war lords to inflict / not punishment, but damage and in l jury on the land that had received l them as guests? Never again. MT. Lloyd George sA1d the interests 1 of security and fair play demanded that it should be made perfectly clear that the people who acted in this way merited punishment for the damage they had inflicted The second question was the ques- tion of indemnities, the premier added. In eeyry court of justice, throughout the world, the party which lost has had to bear the cost of the litigation When eGrmany deefated 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 must use one word of warn fng" said Mir. Lloyd George. "We have consider the question of Germany's apaclty. Whatever happens Germany not to be allowed to pay her indem- nNy by dumping cheap gods upon us. mat is the only limit in principle we re laying down. She must not be al- owed to pay for her wanton damage ~S'NoSAeiOh Oy CllCdU oods and wrecking our industries.
 There is third and last point. Is one to be made responsible for the var! Somebody has been responsible or a war that has taken the lives of nllllons Of the best young men of Eu- ope. IS not any one tobe made re- ponslDle for war that has taken the or mat? If not, I can say sthat if aa' IS the case there is one justice M the poor wretched criminal and mother for kings and emporers."
 Mr. Lloyd George declared that uefe were two offenses against the s or nations that had been commit
