Lloyd Georges Victory.

Premier Lloyd George yesterday
scored another victory in the house of
commons when his ministry was, in eff
feet, granted vote of confdence-o93
to 106-on a motion by former Premier
Asquith to name a special committee to
investigate Gen. Maurice's charges that
the premier had deceived the public and
interfered with the strategic work of
the British army. There was more in
the motion than mere proposal of
method of investigation, as against
reference Of the matter to two judges.
Adoption of The. Asquith motion would
have been tantamount to vote of cen
sure, resulting in the resignation of
the Lloyd George ministry and the for
nation of new cabinet, doubtless head
ed by Mr.. Asquith.
With the defeat of the AsGuith mo-
ton the British government has passed
serious crisis which threatened dis
astrous effect upon the conduct of the
war. There is today no other nan in
sight in England strong enough to ill
the post of premier with the same de-
gree of vigor under the same capacity
for commanding international conf
dence as Lloyd George. His defeat in
commons yesterday would have been a
calamity, and the result of the vote is
20 be haiied as assuring continuation
Of harmony between the allies and
vigorous prosecution Of the war on the
part Of England.
Gen. Maurice appears not only to have
been insnbordinate in his appeal to
the public against the premier, but &C.
tually to have misstated the situation.
Mr.. Lloyd George met the issue with
characteristic vigor and courage. He
made no apologies, but demonstrated
that the statements he had given to
the commons in exposition Of the Brit.
ish military situation were those fur.
nished him by Gen. Maurice himself as
chief of military operations in the war
Office. It is notable that Mr.. Asquith in
pressing his motion made no attempt
to defend the conduct of the officer
whose breach of military discipline pre-
cipitated this crisis, but confined him
self to discussion Of the mode Of in.
quiry.
This affair will clear the air in Grea.
Britain, and, coming as it does Oh the
eve of the expected renewal of the Ger
man drive, must have the effect of
strengthening the British forces in
France. There may have been misun-
derstandings, and these are adjusted by
the controversy. There is evidently,
however, no lack of cooperation and
harmony in the relations between France
and England in matters Of strategy
and military management. That, after
all. is the vital consideration for vic
tory.

Washington's Doubled Quota.

Washington's performance in the third
liberty loan is moro than gratifying.
It is an inspiration. Out Of a popula-
ton which may be estimated at perhaps
40, 000-the exact figure being uncer-
tain owing to recent changes-133,043
persons subscribed to the loan, or nearly
BPM per cent. It is doubtful If any
other city in the United States made so
good a showing as this. Certainly, con.
sidering the character of the population,
its lack Of large commercial establish
ments and the small average Of indi-
vidual incomes this is Q remarkable DEM

supplies, food, soldiers comforts to-
bacco, blankets and household goods,
kitchen utensils, clothing, beds and
other articles of relief.
The department is receiving several
hundred tons of supplies daily, and is
reshipping about Is per cent of them
to points nearer the front.
The warehouse capacity Of the de-
partment exceeds 100000 tons, and
the personnel of nearly 200 consist
largely of volunteer Americans not
liable to military duty.
The transportation department has
Il personnel of several hundred, has
it's own automobiles for transporting
supplies, has an organized force at
every port in France and can handle
several hundred tons daily.
The Belgian repatriate children de-
partment has organized extensive re-
lief work, both for children and
adults and has erected warehouses
near the Belgian line to hold mater
ials that may be necessary for the
relief of Belgians should the front
be forced back.
1t is constantly aiding the queen of
Belgium in her work for the children,
and assisting in the support of hos
pitfalls and other work for the relief
of soldiers.
It has opened refuge for 600 Bel
gian children and home for conval-
escent repatriate children at Chateau
des Halles.
1t has instituted a moving child
hygiene campaign at Chartres, where
the first exhibition was given, in a
motor truck equipped with hygienic
suggestions and apparatus, from which
lectures are given to mothers.
Originally the Red Cross planned to
devote much time and energy to re-
building of the destroyed towns and
villages in the devastated districts
1t was soon found that this is vir-
tually impossible until after the war,
and is not favored by the French gov
ernment.
In the first place, the inhabitants
are not all ready to return to heir
former home cities until the Germans
have been driven further back ,han
at present. Secondly, the work in
volved stupendous difficulties to re.
build any given city or town means
that quantities of material and labor
force entirely unavailable at present
would be needed.
The organization therefore, has been
diverted from its original purpose
and is spending its energies as sum

after three and half years of des-

spirit and almost as strong physically

said Capt. Marcel Knecht, member of
the French national commission to the
United State, in an address here to-
day.
France entered the war with 49,
100000 inhabitants" Knecht declared.
"We already have lost 100000 men
killed and another 100000 men have
been crippled for life and permanently
put out of the fighting.
"But today we have 100000
fighting men in the trenches we hold.
And behind our lines are 1,75O,000
other men who, while they do not
wear the fighting blue, are dressed
in the civilian army garb."
