LORD DEKBY ON GERMAN WARFARE.

A MEMORY TO HAND DOWN TO OUR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN,

Lord Derby, the British Ambassador to France, who presided at the annual eating of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, alluded to the battle new raging in France.

The greatest of modern battles, he said, was now being fought in a way that would, he hoped, bring the end nextror. The brillians counter-stroke of General Foch had resulted in a greas change in the perspective, and he hoped that they would note that in this great battle unity of command was being exemplified and simplified with great advantage. by the fact that, although the bulk of the fighting naturally fell ore, the. French troops, who, were faitustel in the area where the battle was now raging, they were being assist- eð þg. Americans. English, and Italians. At the samo time be hoped that, he would not fall into the error which we had ofter, fallen into before, of over. estivating the advantages gained,
