BRITAIN'S NEED OF EUROPE. Living Records

AFROBLEM OF MARKETS.

Sir Philip Llogi-Greane, the Secretary

of the Department of Overseas Tradio, was Mr. Lloyd George's "righthand man at Genoa, and is at The Hague as the joint head of the British Delegation. Entering Parliament in 1918, his political career has been unusually rapid and brilliant, and as he ta still under forty his Ministerial career can only be regarded as having just begun. He writes:

complete justification, though far from being the only mine for fienda, for The Hague, for every sincere ani practical effort the British Government gun make to lead Europe back to the peaceful ways of rom- merer, is simply this: Wemed the European market. We deal it directly as a purchaser of British goals. We need it Erdirectly as a buyer of the products of

The War Office states that it has not been able to trace a number of men who joined the Army on duration-of-war attestations and have not yet been dis- charged.

There seems to reason whatever to doubt SHANGHAI OFFICE that as the countries within the Empire increase in population and wealth and in the development of their resources (inclod- in their manufacturing capacity) thay will continue to use more and more British goods and capital. There may be a shift- ing of the demand, but there is most un- likely to be

any liminution of it. On the contrary, even when the Dominions seem to be competing with us in neutral markets or to be supplying from their own factories curtain classes of goods they used to receive from us, it will be found that their increasing prosperity and purchasing power are all the time browlening and strengthening the general market for
