A recent speech of Lloyd George
in Parliament asserted that France
had been given satisfactory guar
antees of safety in case Of war by
Germany at a future time. The &C
ceptance of the peace program by
France has hinged largely on such
guarantee. Just what the provision
may be he did not disclose, and there
has been much speculation on that
point. Nothing short of promise
of aid by England and the United
