SIR EDWARD CARSON'S VIEWS,
Referring to Dr. Michaelis's speech Sir Edward Carson in a spect at Belfast said it sounded hollow. If the Germans wanted peace we were prepared to treat with them to-morrow. Not with Prussianism but the best of of our sincerity that we did not want to acquire territory or de violence to others, let them first of all agree to withdraw their troops behind the Rhine and show contribution towards the humanity of the invaded territories and then we would willingly negotiate and see what could be done for the salvation on the world evermore and its release from the terrors of war.
