Britain Has Right
to Hand Out Advice

ST. Louis, Oct. 10, (By \. P.)-
Because of the record of the Brit
ish Empire in the World War, when
it went to the help of France
against Germany We have a
right to give advice. David Lloyd
George, the war time premier of
Great Britain declared in an adj
dress here today on the German
reparation situation.
Speaking at Il luncheon given I'M
der the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce he said that I'VE have a
right to give advice: we have a
right to say that we have friends:
but we've n right to claim that the
sacrifice which we made was not
made to perpetuate strife and anger
and wrong.
The statement was made in re-
ferring to a report of speech on
the subject of reparations made in
this city yesterday by Col. G.. A. L..
Dumont. military attache of the
French embassy at Washington. in
which. according to newspaper re-
ports, he said:
Pray may the Lord protect us
against our friends"
Declaring that the speech was
obviously addressed to me-. Mr..
Lloyd George expressed regret that
the phrase had been used. adding:
II never heard that prayer be-
tween 1914 and 1918. There are
100000 dead throughout the Brit
ish Empire ad the proof of our
friendship.
