Ld1dSdowne ConcurS In
War Aims of President
Wilson and Lloyd George

going to hand over Gibraltar, Hong
Kong and some other little quarters
Of the earth.
Lord Lansdowne said it was UNI
true to say that a victory in the
field could not be really complete
victory until one belligerent had got
the other completely at his mercy.
He added that the allies had had
some glorious successes in the field,
but he did not know whether any
high authority at this moment is
prepared to tell us that a crushing,
decisive victory in the field is within
sight.
On the contrary continued Lord
Lansdowne, we constantly are told
and are led to accustom ourselves
more and more to the idea of a VIC
tory which can be accomplished by
the gradual exhaustion of the re-
sources, military and economic. 'of
the enemy"
The speaker said he thought. that
such a process of attrition neces-
sarily must take very long time to
accomplish. He had seen it stated,
that it would take two years, and il
that was so, ARE we not justified in
asking ourselves what a delay Of two
years really means?
The speaker then told Of the loss
in lives ard money and by famine
during the war and said he could
draw a picture of what the condition
of the world would be two or three
years hence IL a peace could not be
obtained.
Il submit that it is neither I'M
patriotic nor I'M Christian" Lord
Lansdowne continued, ito think Of
these things. l say then, let us en-
deavor for all We are worth, to get
our clean peace in good time.
How are we going to get a dur
able peace? To my mind there is
only one way, and that is by bring
ing about a combination Of great
powers.
Il do not mean a coalition Of one
group Of powers against another
group Of powers. mean a combina-
ton of all the powers, under which
they will hold themselves bound to
refer international disputes to some
kind Of international tribunal and
under which they will bind them

RETAIN MANY.
New Defense Council Per-
sonnet to Be About Same
as De FactO Body

Bismarck, n. D., Feb. /. 1890 There
will be virtually no change in the
personnel of the state coun-
Gil Of defense, IeRalized by
an act Of the state legislature in the
special session just closed.
Governor Frazier has indicated
that he will reappoint, as far as
possible, the men now serving, though
some changes win be required be-
cause in some instances two or more
members came from the same judicial
district, while the new law requires
that one shall be appointed from
each OF the twelve judicial districts
in the state.
Dorr Carroll of Minot, chairman Of
the council as il is at present
constituted, probably will be chosen
Tor the post Of vice chairman Of the
new council, which is elective with
the council. The council also elects
its secretary, and +. o. HelIstrom,
according to administration forces,
is favored for that post, which he
now occupies.
Governor Frazier's appointments
will be announced within a few days.
Under the law just passed, the de-
Tense council has a definite program
OF work, and will give special at
tention to the question Of developing
the Ignite resources Of the state to
the end that the state may be indie
pendent of eastern coal supplies next
year.
The council also will devote con-
attention to the question
Of farm labor and will, at an early
date. make a survey Of the states
needs, and get in touch with avail

Significance Of Strike
In Germany Described
by 4. P. Correspondent

! er strikers in the Berlin region had
| resumed work.
Conditions OF the present Ger
man political strike are significant IN
that. for the first time, the leaders
of the majority or tame" Socialists
under Scheidemann, are aligned with
the radical Socialists. During the
strikes Occasioned by the trial OF
Liebknecht and by the reduction OF
the bread ration in April, 1917, the
whole influence OF SCheidemann and
the other majority Socialist leaders
was thrown against the walkOuts
and they cO-Operated whole hearted
ly with the government in inducing
the men and women to return to
work. Majority Socialists endeavors
were also primarily responsible for
the failure of the general political
strike which radical Socialists at
tempted TO launch on May !, 1916.
Now Scheidemann and his associates
are represented on the general strike
committee with Haase and other
leaders of the radical element.
This change Of heart on the part
OF the government Socialists APP
parently has been brought about by
the spirit shown by the government
In the Russo-German peace negO-
tiations at Brest -Litovsk; in the
treatment OF the Prussian franchise
reform, and also by the swing OF the
Socialist masses away from the
moderate program of the Scheide-
mann forces to the radical 'stop-the-
war at any price demands Of the
radicals.
THE detection Of thousands OF
followers and even Of reichstag
deputies to the extremist wing has
compelled the moderate Socialists TO
shift to the left and align themselves
in the strike movement in open and
pronounced opposition to the govern
ment on an issue having an import
ant bearing on the further pToseCu-
ton of the war"
