Show DOSS NOT MEAN PEACE. It st'LMits to bo the opinion in Loudon w Lloyd-George will succeed in form- in a ministry which will have the backing back-ing uf a ma.joniy of the house of commons, com-mons, wit hotit which it could not survive. sur-vive. While (he cnbinet will doubtless ' be made up of (.'nionists, Liberals and Luborites, it will not be known as a ro.ilitiou ministry, but a war ministry. .'o one need guoys as to what this means. The (iennati view is expressed 1 by the KoelntPiho Zeituner, which says i " the enemy 's hist forces will now be ! brought into the field, and when they, I like the others, have hurled themselves ' vainly against the strength of Germany, we shall find England ready for an honorable hon-orable peace. r.ut as Germany has yet to withstand these lat forces that are to be brought into the field, the comment of the Koel-iiUche Koel-iiUche Zeit ting is a trifle premature. The only certainty about the matter is that Great Britain, with Lloyd-George at tlu head of affairs, will utilize every ' force at the command of the empire to win the war and break down all the barriers ihat Germany lias been erect-1 ing during the last forty years. If it caitno; be accomplished, then England will be ready for an honorable peace, as the German paper says. But before the attempt is piven up, if it turns out - that way. the Germans must be prepared to, fight as they never have fought be-iure, be-iure, and to witness te sacrifice of countless thousands of lives. Instead o peace in the near future, we look for the most terrhic struggle of the war. |
