CITY TO CUT SECOND
LOAN COUPONS FRIDAY
S46O,0O0 to Be Distributed Here;
Reinvestment in W. S. S. Urged.

Thousands of dollars will be dis
tributed here tomorrow when the
government will make its second
semi annual interest payment to hold
ers of Second Liberty Bonds. In this
connection, the District War Saw
inGs Committee is making an urgent
appeal to bond holders to invest their
interest in war savings or thrift
stamps.
Washington's total subscription to
the Second Liberty Bond issue was
s23, S19 49, distributed among 4.777 in
dividusl subscribers. This City's
share of the disbursement resulting
from the wholesale clipping of cou-
pons tomorrow will. it is estimated,
exceed s46O,O
The plea made by the War Savings
Committee that this interest be i'm
mediately reinvested in the govern
ment's smaller war securities-war
savings and thrift stamps-is based
on the fact that, while the war is
over. the government need of funds
for the care of our soldiers is in no
wise abated

Looking forward to an exodus OF
war workers yesterday Senators who
had previously been eager for an
anti-profiteering law agreed that the
Salisbury resolution with an extern
sion of time would be ample to pro-
tect tenants.
The Pomerene amendment to the
emergency food production bill, which
is still in dispute between the two
houses, will probably be dropped, and
the rest of the bill be allowed 10
become a law. The bill carries a
wartime prohibition rider which
would make the country dry on next
July ! until the rehabilitation Of
the army is complete. Prohibition

Lloyd George Declares De-
sne for Revenge and Greed
: Must Be Cast Out.

s.ondon, Nov. 13.-"One Of the
prfncipal issues at the forthcoming
general election will be in the ma
tupe Of peace settlement" said
Premter Lloyd George in an address
denvsred to his Liberal supporters
Monday.
ywhat are the principles upon
wEAch that settlement Is to be
made?" he continued. Are we to
lanse back into the old national
rivalries and animosity and competi-
tive armaments OF are we to initiate
thes reign on earth Of the Prince OF
Peace?
At is the duty Of liberalism to
use its influence to insure us that II
will be reign Of peace. What are
the conditions of peace to be? They
must lead to a settlement which will
be Fundamentally just No settle
msnt that contravenes principles of
eternal justice will be a permanent
one, The peace OF 1871, imposed by
Germany on France, outraged all
principles Of justice and fair play.
Let US be warned by that example.
Urges League of Nations
I'VE must not allow any sense OF
revenge. any spirit of greed. any
grasping desire to override the fun
damental principles OF Righteousness.
Vigorous attempts win be made to
bully the government in an endeavor
to make them depart from the strict
PRINCIPLES Of right, and to satisfy
some base, sordid, squalid ideas OF
Vengeance and avarice. We must re-
lentlessly set our faces against that.
The mandate of this government
at the forthcoming election will mean
that the British delegation to the
peace congress will be in favor OF a
just peace"
The Prime Minister next alluded to
the question of a league of nations.
He said that such a league was more
necessary now than ever before, and
pointed out that conditions that pre-
vailed IN the Balkans before the war
were nov affecting practically two
thirds Of the nations of Europe. Con-
tinuing. he said:
"A large number OF small nations
have been reborn in Europe and
these. will require a league OF ma
tions to protect them from the
Coyetousness OF the ambitions OF
their gasping neighbors. In my
judgment a league Of nations is alb
solUtely essential to permanent peace.
We shall go to the peace con-
ference to guarantee that the
league Of nations is to be a reality.
OflcbUrse, We must have in this
country an efficient army to pO-
lice the empire, but I am looking
forSHrd to the conduct OF things,
WITH the existence of a league of ma
- tions under which COnscription will
not be necessary in any country"
Lloya George, turning to home poll
tiCs- said We should utilize victory
to get the necessary impetus for re-
form. He spoke with great sympathy
of thaGceuIitiOns of labor. especially
in favor OF a reduction Of hours, and
Indicated the necessity for a mini
mum wage. He said that he regarded
hJTD5 rule for Ireland as essential

A WAR SUGGESTION.

While all the rest of us economic,
Our law-courtS waste and tuddle OF yore
Fat baffs still grow fatter and look wise
And supernumerary clerks still pore
On books and ledgcrs dull and numberless;
And cumbrous ancient methods clog the law.
While all the nation tolls in strain and stress,
Justice delays and lawyers hem and haw.
Why need the wheels of jurisprudence creak
AS slow as oxcarts in the Middle Ages
While juries yawn and doing clerks grow sleek
And records multiply with countless pages?
Why need the useless pomp and precedent
OF bygone days wcarily continue,
While elsewhere sweat and blood and brain are
And all the land is straining every sinew?
The splendor of the law can be maintained
Without these trappings and without these
forms.
Isn't it time that Justice should be trained
Down to minute? Cannot all these swarms
OF parasites and drones that clutter courts
Be bundled forth to struggle for their bread,
Torn from their useless dockcts and reports
And taught that man must work if he be fed?
Surely the car of justice proceed
With fewer passengers and smaller crews;
Sure the law with greater speed
And itigants receive their honest dues
If courts will purge themselves of hocus-pocus
Forget their pompous past and get things done,
Eliminate the bunk and get in focus
With modern ways by which the world is
The dignity that surrounds the bench
VIII not be lost when courts show greater verve
And like the soldier in the front line trench
Know but ono single aim in life-to servei

ing factor in the longevity of commanders. But
war preparation is much more complex
and difficult-and perhaps much more i'm
portant-than war itself An army in the field is
merely the symbol of the quality of the work that
has gone before.
Must wait for disaster in the held be-
fore finding what is wrong with our military prep
aration? Does delay have to be piled upon delay,
and blunder upon blunder, until the demonstration
of inadequacy and incompetence has been made
hard and fast a geometrical theorem, or as
utterly beyond dispute the law of gravtation? /?
Rather, should not the opposite policy be followed
one savoring of extreme care and suspicion, the
following down of the smallest lead which is sug-
ecstive of blundering so that it may be corrected
before it rots and corrodes the surrounding war
fabric?
All the European nations have been up against
the "acid test from the start; they have looked
upon the war situation clear-eyed, choosing and
discarding men they got results, pruning the
incompetents, going forward relentlessly In Wash
ington still fighting the routineers of red
tape, without any real assurance that fight

leaders of the Upper Chamber. and chairman of

He is going to make a gallant fight for
