ARMISTICE DAY
BRINGS LEADERS
BEFORE PUBLIC
None of the Former Leaders Are
Active in World Affairs
Today
BY MILTON BRONNER
Nea Service Writer

David Lloyd George-on the shelf
Georges Clemenceau-on the shelf.
Ferdinand Foch-on the shelf.
Seven years ago this day these
three men, together with the late
President Woodrow Wilson, were
on the top of the world. They were
the masters of national and world
destines. Their word was law. Not
only did the conquered Germans look
to them for sentence, but all the lit
tie nations looked to them for life.
Today Woodrow Wilson lies bur
red in Washington Cathedral Lloyd
George, once the most powerful
prime minister Great Britain ever
had, leads a tiny minority party in
the House of Clemenceau completely
retired from politics, lives mainly
in his humble cottage down in the
Vendee, and Foch sees younger men
directing the armed forces of France.
They used to say republics were
ungrateful. Change it to "Democra-
cies are ungrateful" and you get the
story of the fate of Lloyd George.
.Clemenceau, and Foch.
In Great Britain where others fail
ed, Lloyd George succeeded. The
man, who was once looked upon al
most as revolutionary, formed a
cabinet of democrats and aristocrats
and gave to Britain some of his own
indomitable will to win and to mock
the Germans into a cooked hat. He
conducted the British empire to Wet
DRY in the greatest war of all time
and for some years he led it in the
trouble peace that followed. Then
one day his leadership and his cab

The Lowry place comprises GOT
acres, with two good residences on
it, five or six of the largest barns

In private conversation, l have
said that no government since the
dawn of creation had ever been as
generous to it's military ex-service
men as the United States had been
to its veterans of the late war. While
there moy have been, doubtless, iso-
lated occasions in which justice has
been done to certain individuals, just
as there are also instances where
fraud is perpetrated upon the Gov
eminent, yet Congress is in no wise
responsible for this. All Congress
can do is to make appropriations,
