Lord Leng, In proposing n toast te
Mr. Lloyd Geerge, declared that nt.

by calumny nnd nbuse. The enemy did'
net meet the Prime Minister in th

attack him from the editorial chair.
In response, the Prime Minister saidl
"Genea has net ended. It will go en!
te the end. I am interested te- note'
hew the alleged friends of pence pre-i

persistence thnt suggested the wish was

"Europe is se desirous of peace and
se needful of it thnt I feel the chariot
of peace will ultimately be forced,
through te the desired goal. Six weeks
was tee short te complete the tnsk and
lemeve nil misunderstandings."
''B,ut the work will go en,", Mr.
Lloyd Geerge continued, "by the will
nt of rulers, but of these who rule thn
rulers." '
British Quit for Peace
He declared it was the right as well
as the duty of the British Empire te
have something te say in favor of peace.
The empire hud mobilized nine and one
half millions during the late war, he
declared, and asked if thnt and the con
tributions from the dominions nnd In
dia did net give the empire the right te
a voice in the kind Of world peace thai
needed te be established.
Mr. Lloyd Geerge received in the
Heuse of Commens last night what la .
