He alluded to Reginald McKenna.

Referring to the laborite mani

many questions spoke almost with

their ultimate purpose was gradual
accomplishment of organized control
of enterprise by the state over

industrial field.

Such a conference, he said, should

tives from the different nations, such
as those who appeared at the recent
Limitation of armament conference.
IF there shall be such meeting,
he declared, "and the delegates are
all of the type referred to, good viii
result to all who are parties. They
would not decide or discuss how to
abolish or overcome the old estab-
lished law Of supply and demand, how
to avoid existing obligations. but
rather how and when to fulfill them
without irreparable injury to anyone
or the sacrifice of principle.
Opposes Cancellation
Cancellation of Europe's war debts
to the United States was opposed by
the speaker. The debts, he said,
were Voluntarily. openly and fairly
contracted and cannot be cancelled
or disposed of on any other basis,
without doing violence to recognized
principles of Justice and rules Of

TO cancel these debts or any part
of them, without full payment he
