Answers Pre. mier, Recalling Aliens Who Got Equal Rights i GUILTY RULFRS Tfl FFFI INDIVIDUAL RETRIBUTION Crime Against Humanity Must Be Prevented, and World Assured Lasting Peace. | London.?David Lloyd George, the British Prime Minister, in a speech *at Newcastle said the victory ol the Entente Allies had been due to the ceaseless valor of their men and that it would be a lesson to anybody who k>n the future thought that they, as the Prussian war lords hoped, "could overlook this little ishinrl in Ihoii* ^ reckoning." HftV'e arc now approaching the Peace Conference," the Premier continued. "The price of victory is not vengeance nor retribution. It is prevention. First of all, what about those people whom we have receive:I without question for years to ou> db shores, to whom we give equal right: with our own sons and (laughters, and who abused that hospitality to betray the land, to plot against security, to spy upon it and to gain such information as enabled the Prussian war lords to inflict n >l punishnu nl, hut damage and injury upon the land that had received them as guests? Never again!" Premier Lloyd George said the interests. of security and fair play demanded that it should be made perfectly clear that the people who acted in this way merited punishment for the damage they had inflicted. The second question was the question of indemnities, the Pn micr add ed. In every court of justice through out the world tiie party which iost had had to hear the cost of the litigation. When Germany defeated France she established the principle: and there wan no doubt tliat the principle was the right one. Germany must pay the cost of the wo; up to the limit of her capacity. "But I must use one word of warn ^ng," said Mr. Lloyd George. "We have to consider the -question of Germany's capacity. Whatever happens Ge rmany is not to be allowed to pay her indemnity by dumping cheap goods upon us. Tlm.t i; the only limit in principle we are laying down. She must not be allowed to pay for her wanton damage an l dovaslatlon by dumping cheap good and wrecking our industries. "There is a third and last point.

Mr. Lloyd George declared that 'Adhere were two offenses against the law of nations that had been committed. "One," he said, "is the crime against humanity in deliberate plotting of the great war. The other is the jputrage upon international law. <l li iwa crime, a brutal crime, to dcfV^vastatc the lands of another. Who' ever did that ought to be responsible for it.

C.?With the subsidence of the epidemic of influenza the attention of health officers is directed to pneumonia, bronchitis and other ? diseases of the respiratory system which regularly cause a large number of dcuths, especially during the winter sensnn.

It i is also good to know that people have I learned something about the value of I fresh air. In summer, when people j are largely out of doors, the resplraj tory diseases (coughs, colds, pneimioj nia, etc.) arc infrequent; in the fall, j as people begin to remain indoors, the | respiratory diseases increase; in the j I winter, when people are prone to slay | i in badly ventilated, overheated rooms. j the respiratory diseases become very ! prevalent. I Suitable Clothing Important. j "Still another factor in the production of colds, pneumonia and other respiratory diseases is carelessness or ignore nee of the people regarding suilI able clothing during the seasons when! j the weather suddenly changes, sitting: ; in warm rooms too heavily dressed or, what Is even more eommon, especially i among women, dressing so lightly that! windows are kept closed in order to be comfortably warm.
