Americanism and codnselled taking
"the American way at each new

tistic, elfseeking side, while then
and there we drown out the larger,
nobler man who always walks with
us, but is too seldom challenged to
appear.
Sons OF America.
"Tbis would be a true Thanksgiv-
ing day If IT could be a day Of
pledge 10 the prouder, stronger
things. in us which we call our
Americanism. AS Edward Everett
Hale used to pray teach US TO know
that we are sons of the Living God
so 1 would pray also that we might
know that we are sons of a living
America. To know that is TO know
that we can solve our dinlculties, an

American way of doing things, not

an American conscience and an
American sense of justice, and an
American common sense-these are
our traditions and they are equal to

We need TO know Amer tea. We
sometimes lose our faith because we
do not know this land, its people. it's
promise. 1t is the happiest of all
countries on earth; the richest not
merely in its ability TO produce
things but in its ability to produce
men and women Of courage, honor
and ambition.
Wealth Grows.
our people are growing day by
day in a distributed wealth such as
the world has never seen. One
man out of every five in America
has an automobile. We have more
automobiles than all the rest of the
globe. That speaks a conclusive
word as TO the spread Of our pros
perity. We do not till one quarter
of our tillable land. Where else is
such promise? In my home uni
versity of California there are today
thousands of students, while in my
day we had but five hundred.
"We love this land because such
things are possible in it; and better
things will come if we are sober
minded and ask ourselves at each

BOTH SIDES QUIT
AFTER STRUGGLE
OVER WAGE SCALE
COMMONS QUERY
LLOYD GEORGE
British Premier on the Stand
Answers Lengthy List
of Questions.
Ry Associated Press


LONDON, Nov. 27. 49, Premier
Lloyd-George again stood on the
floor of the house of commons and
answered a lengthy list of questions
on all subjects. mostly however, in
connection with the European eco
nomic and military situation arising
from the war.
One OF the most important OF the
questions related to the condition
of Austria, concerning which Com
mander Viscount Curzon. coalition
unionist member for Battersea
south asked whether the supreme
council in Paris was taking steps to
deal with the situation.
Must Have Credit.
The premier declared that the su-
preme council had reached the con-
clusion that only a comprehensive
arrangement for a 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-
ture which would have 20 be in
CURED in dollars.
Urgent representations have ac-
cordingly been made to the United
States government in this sense" the
premier added.
Questioned regarding whose duty
it would be 10 summon The first
meeting OF the assembly and the
first meeting of the council Of the
League Of Nations in view OF the
fact Of the American senate's re-
fusal TO ratify the Versailles treaty.
Mr. Lloyd George said that article
V OF the treaty stipulated that the
president Of the United States
should summon the meeting He
added that he did not understand
that this was in any affected by
the refusal of the American senate
10 ratify the treaty.
Irish Question.
Another inquiry, made by James
NJ. Hogge. advanced radical and
Scottish home rule member for
Edinburgh, was whether Mr.. Lloyd
George gave any understanding to
Prest Wilson during the peace con-
ference that Mr.. Lloyd gorge
would endeavor to settle the Irish
question. This brought a direct neg
ative reply.
Answering still another question
the premier said that the effect Of
the American senate's action with
regard TO the treaty provisions for
plebiscite and other commissions in
Germany would be only indirect II
would be necessary for the other
powers to find a larger quota Of
representative for these commits
SiOnS.
The premier said that the Anglo
French American treaty providing
for the defense Of France in case Of
wanton attack was contingent on
ratification by the United States SEN
ate but that the American refusal TO
ratify the peace treaty would not
necessarily affect the tri-partite
treaty. provided the United States
ratified the tripartite pact sepa
rately.
