approved rate of 65 per cent ad
valorem on household glassware,
blown or partly blown in the mould,
and a duty of so per cent on such
glassware when pressed and unpol-
Iished.
Senator Jones, first sought to

~ to 20. Thirteen republicans ana
the fourteen democrats present
supported it.

FAV0Rs POLICY
Of MODERATION
Of REPARAT|O IONS
Lloyd George Praises the
German Attitude Toward
the Commission, in a
Speech in House.

London, May 81 (by the Asso-
ciated Press) With Germany un-
defiant, Premier Lloyd George had
planned to make brief statement
on reparations In the house Of COM
mons this afternoon but when
John Robert Clynes. labor member,
opened the debate and attributed
the present difficulties to the gov
ernment's election pledges of 1918,
the prime minister launched into
a lengthy defense of the repara-
tions commission and the treaty OF
Versailles.
Whatever lack of balance was
evident in the working of the
treaty, and likewise the workings
of the league of nations, he as
serted, was due to the absence OF
the United States, who, having no
claims with respect to reparations,
was friendly to France, Italy, Great
Britain and Germany and was con-
cerned in seeing that reparations
were not given to extremes. to up
set the balance Of world trade.
No Cause for Disagreement.
Mr.. Lloyd George praised the
German attitude toward the repa-
rations commission and indicated
that so long as she was not deilant
Germany could count on Britain
sympathy and understanding oil
the difficulties involved in meeting
the treaty conditions. He declared
however, that there was no cause
for disagreement between France
and England, for should Germany
refuse to attempt to fulfill the
commissions prop sails. Great Brit
aims place would be at the SIDE OF
the Versailles signatories, despite
the Misrepresentation when are
being made.
Great Britain believed In the ira
ditional policy of moderation and
fulfillment. continued the prime
minister and he gave warning tha'
isolated action on the part OF any
one of the allies would be disas-
trous to the entente between them'
"It Is the policy pursued after
Waterloo toward France. when
Prussia and Russia and the otnef
victors urged that France DC
trampled," said Mr.. Lloyd George
1.-THE government In that day re-
fused to countenance such a policy
we are pursuin~ the same course
But if Germany is defiant. II sne
should say this treaty We decline
to carry OUT it would be different,
A German policy of non-fulfillment
would be policy Of immediate
disaster.
"It is not a question of France
acting alone, If there is defiance
OF the Versailles treaty. We are
signatories to the treaty, which the
house of commons ratified. We are
committed to it. Tn spite OF all
misrepresentation we still shall
stand for the policy OF moderation
and fulfillment."
