"Then came an interval of some days. When M.

It was then that be reverted with renewed vigour to M. Pichon's views, to which be subsequently, Armly adhered. In the meantime Mr. Lloyd George, shaken in his judgment by the observations of some of his Ministers. and by the Indian protests, himself re nounced his former plan, and, in reply to question in the House of Commons put by Bir Sir Donald McLean, advanced the most brilliant arguments in sapport of those previously made to him by M.

That Conference came to light one fine day like a phenomenon of spontaneous cam bustion, a council which assumed the title of "Supreme Council, and allocated to itself the task of settling the future of the world. It included the greatest stated men of Europe and America. But in meet ing each other every day in this constant co-operation the heads of the various Governments were gradually forced to lose contact with their respective Cabinets, with their Parliaments, and with their nations at a time when a multitude of vital problema demanding urgent atten- tion arose among the conquering nations, as well as among the vanquished, and at a time when everything had to be re- organved without delay in the various Hongkong to Gap Rock" armies, in administrations, in finance, and in social relations.

As if to increase still more their crushing burden, the Council discussed. not only the matters in which the repres seated countries were interested, but all the incidents which arose in the prepara tion of world peace, and they assumed the vexatious habit of ominating, sorpe- times in a very irritating manner, the nations which they ghalified as amall, but which, for the most part, were old friends Barometer
