FREE TRADE
SPEECH ST|RS BRITAIN
SAYS Unrestricted Admission of I'm
ports Will Lower Prices
of Necessities.
By GORDON STILES.

Special Cable to The Sunday Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1919.
LONDON, July 26.-There is much
discussion of the speech delivered in
Plymouth by the former prime minis
ter, Herbert Asquith. Especial inter
est has been aroused by his vehement
utterances in regard to free trade.
In business circles there has been a
growing tendency to feel that sitting
competition by means of the restric-
tions of imports is the logical road
to the prosperity of British manufac-
turers. Mr.. Asquith strongly repudi-
ates such a doctrine.
Dwelling on the ability of England
to carry the entire financial burden
of the war up to the time of America 8
entry, he said:
I'VE did a thing which we never
could have done but for free trade,
which created, fostered and main
tanned our mercantile marine. We
transported troops and brought food;
we brought materials by which alone
the allied cause was maintained and
became triumphant Why was that?
Because under our system of free
trade we had made ourselves masters
upon the seas"
Mr.. Asquith holds that the free
and unrestricted admission of imports
will result in a decline in prices of
necessities of life, because it stimu-
lates competition here and does not
give a monopoly to outsiders. He
concluded his speech thus:
Are you going to throw away all
that we have won under the free
trade system? Is that the lesson of
the war? There never was a more ef-
fective or more eloquent corrobora-
tion of the wisdom and foresight of
Golden and Gladstone than in the
fruits produced in the greatest strug-
gle the world has ever seem
The speech undoubtedly has made a
profound impression.

Disease Shows Decrease.

Comparison of the loss by disease
and the loss in battle during the last
four wars is made in the report. the
last war being the only one where
the black column of disease losses is
shorter than the white column of bat
tie losses. In the war with Germany
disease claimed but 1s deaths per
1000 men per year. while during the
Mexican war the rate was 116 per
1000
When the armistice was signed
France had 1883 guns organized in
batteries, Italy had 7,709. Great Brit
ain 6993 and the United States 3,00S.
These figures are not fair compari-
son of the artillery strength of the
allies, however as the average French
gun was of smaller caliber than that
OF the British or American. American
gunners fired S.116.000 rounds of am
nunition during the war.
The total cost of the war is placed
at s1S6. 600. .00O, 900, Germany being the
heaviest contributor. with $4,000
100000, and Great Britain next with
S3s 600. 900. 900: France. $4,000, ,000.-
600 and the United States fourth with
s22, 600. 100000. The central powers
were out a total of $50 900 900. 900 and
the allies expended $123, 200. .000, 900, or
nearly twice as much.

Sector Gradually Increased.

On January 81, 1918, the Americans
held but ten kilometers of the line, but
from that time on their section of the
front steadily increased until at the
time of the st. Mihiel offensive it was
l5a kilometers in extent, comparing
with 40 kilometers held by the Brit
ish. In October the American front
was 162 kilometers and at the time of
the armistice it was 134 kilometers
the decrease being due to the shorten
ed line as result of the allied sue
cesSes
At the time war was declared this
country had but 100000 men under
arms. two-thirds being regulars and
Gne-third national guardsmen. Both
of these branches were later increased
by eniistments. but the bulk of the to-
tai strength of 1900, ,O00 reached last
November, came from the National
Army. Seventy-seven per cent of the
total or 3,091.000 men, were drafted
$4,000 enlisted in the Regular Army.
and $4,000 in the National Guard.

there were 1000 chaplains and 49, 900.
