Message From the King.
King George sent the following let
ter to Lord Robert Cecil:
we have won the war. That is
great achievement. but 1T is not
enough. We fought to gain a lasting
peace and it is our supreme duty to
take every measure to secure it.
For that nothing Is more essential
than a strong and enduring league of
| nations Every day makes this clear
er. The covenant OF Paris Is a good
foundation. The nature and strength
OF the structure to build upon this
must depend on the earnestness and
| sincerity OF popular support.
Millions Of British men and women.

suffering caused by the brutal havoc
Of war, stand ready to help II only

Mr.. Asquith's Views.
Mr.. Asquith declared that the mill
tary and naval armaments OF nations

said he hoped the members Of the

under the covenant purely as a duty.
Mr.. Asquith added that with the
people alone lay the initiative and
ultimate responsibility. The alterna.
tives before them were to relapse
into the old. insane hostilities or the
provision and defense Of way for
the free spirit Of mankind.

Idaho Senator Calls on Congress
To Turn Its Attention to
Americans Needs.

Washington, Nov. H.-Calling on
congress to turn its attention to the
immediate needs of the American
people. Senator Borah of Idaho, re-
publican, one of the. irreconcilabl
in the fight against the league of ma
tons, outlined i'll d formal statement
a program for the coming session.
Passage of bill to declare peace,
legislation to bring order out of
chaos in our transportation system"
laws to enforce governmental econ
ony and check extravaganza, which
he characterized as incredible" a
check on proflteering, return Of
American troops from Russia and a
restoration of the peace-ti,ne powers
Of the government in distinction
from the wartime powers being
maintained were the principal meas
ures Senator BorRh advocated.
A declaration of peace, Senator
Borah declared, was desirable moro
for psychological reasons than any
thing else" adding that "the advo-
Gates of the league continue to harp
upon tine proposition that we tech
nically are at war in order to dis
turb business and keep It restless
and unsettled"
"One OF the greatest and best rail-
road systems in the world has been
wrecked through incompetency and
politics." Senator Borah's statement
chargedS and in his attack OH gov
ernmental expenditures he declared
"the people are literally being taxed
into bolshevism."
Referring to former Secretary
McAdoo's recent statement regard
ing profits of coal operators, Sen
ator Borah declared the profits were
permitted under the orders OF, the
administration OF which Mr.. Nc
Adoo was member and that profi-
teering ''is just as rampant now as
it was during the war in certain
lines of industry"
'F"The most fragrant and uncon-
scionable profiteering that the coun-
try has experienced" he said, was
that whichwas permitted or actually
ordered by the government"
Legislation passed for carrying on
the war, Senator Borah charged, "is
being maintained and used for the
purpose of repressing our own
people," the great majority of whom
the senator said he believed were
loyal to American institutions.

Lloyd George Answers Cues.
tions Relative to European
Situation in British
House Of Commons.

London, Nov. 27.-Premier Lloyt
George again Thursday in the House
OF Commons answered a list o
questions on all subjects, mostly
however, in connection with the Eu
ropean economic and military situ
alton arising from the war.
One of the most important OF the
questions related to the condition
OF Austria, concerning which Com
nander Viscount Curzon, coalition
unionist member for Battersea
south, asked whether the supreme
council in Paris was taking steps tc
deal with the situation.
The premier declared that the su.
preme council had reached the con
clusion that only comprehensive
arrangement for large interna-
tional credit would adequately meet
the situation and that it was essen
tial for the success of such a pro.
posal that the United States should
contribute that part Of the expendi-
turc which would have to be incurred
in dollars.
Urgent Representations.
Urgent representations have, ac-
cordingly been made to the United
States government in that sense,
the premier added.
Questioned regarding whose duty
it would be to summon the hrst
meeting rof the assembly and the
first meeting of the council OF the
league of nations, lin view OF the
fact Of the American senate,s re-
fusal to ratify the treaty, Mr.. Lloyd
George said that Article S of the
treaty stipulated that the president
Of the United States should sum-
mon the meeting. He added that he
did not understand that this was IN
any way affected by the refusal OF
the senate to ratify the treaty.
Another inquiry, made by James
M. Hogge, advanced radical and
Scottish home rule member for
Edinburgh, was whether Mr.. Lloyd
George gave any undertaking to
President Wilson during the peace
conference that Mr.. Lloyd George
WOulQ CHuCdVOI " oSttiS 'hS
question. This brought a direct neg
ative reply.
Only Indirect Action,
Answering still another question.
the premier said that the effect OF
the American senate's action with
regard to the treaty provisions tor
plebiscite and other commissions IN
Germany would be only indirect. 1t
would be necessary for the other
powers to find larger quota OF rep
resentatives for these, commissions.
The premier said that the Anglo

for the defense of France in case OF
wanton attack was contingent on.

senate, but that American refusal to

the successful tests that the 'Exide'

$50 much effort on the part OF mo-

some vital features of the car con-

with the car buyer.
