GERMANY UNCHANGEDS

MR. HUGHES'S WARNINGS

The Empire Parlia Association gaye la luncheon Frecently at the Harcourt Rodang House of Commons to bid fare- well to Mr. W. M. Hughes, Prime Minister of Australia. Among those present were ——-

-Lont-Ampthil Lord Blyth, Lord Desborough, Lord Down ham Lord-Finlay, Lord Loch, Lord Meath, Lord Morris, Lord Ratheredan, Lord Sudeley, Lord Stanhope, Dr. Addison, Sir Auck. land Geddes, Mr. A. Illingworth, Sir Alfred Mond, Sir Arthur Thring and a large number of members of the House of Com-

..

Mr. Walter Long (who pre- sided), in proposing "Farewell to the Australian Delegates,” said that when the Prime Minister of Australia laft this country he would leave behind him the remembrance of great public service freely and splendidly rendered, and a parson- ality, which bad. endeared itself to all those with whom be -had come in contact, Mr. Hughes had centred his thoughts and labours upon the great Imperial work to which he had devoted himself, and had been animated] by a burning desire of love of Empire. (Cheers.)

Mr. Hughes who was warmly received, said that looking back, as calmly as one might, on that which had come and gone, every thinking man must shudder when he realised how nearly we escap ed defeat. We had won; on the the field of battle we had triumph- ed over an enemy that for 40 years prepared for our destruction. The question now was, what shall the future be? Germany, crushed on the field of battle, was still tr day the best equipped for the Commercial and industria! fight of every nation in the world. Not even the United States was better equipped.

months ago war ̈ceased, and to- day the voice of the German is heard in the land not speaking directly, but through the mouths of others.

AUSTRALIA'S POLICY. But let me ask no more. f these awkwaft questions. Let me say something of the rolicy which Australia herself will adopt. If How were we going to maintain you ask us whether we shall rely this Empire in its greatness; how upon the Legue of Nations--we could we gather in the fruits of shall, but we shall keep our our victory? What was the posi-powder dry. We can afford to tion to-day? What would it be when the Treaty of Peace was signed? To-day the. Empire had control of its own Navy. But would that control pass from us? Was it to go from our hands into the hands of another?

The League of Nations we welcomed. We hoped and trusted that the end of all war had come. We hoped that mankind would no longer resort to the arbitra- ment of the sword to settle quarrels between them. We hoped there had been fashioned by the Peace Conference an instrumenti so effective that war would be banished from the world. But we knew that if this League was to prove effective it must bare a force, naval and military, which should by its very existence and power, crush all who menaced it. There must be then another power which could make even interference by us impossible. What then of the Navy?

No country would more gladly welcome the coming of the League of Nations than Australia. It would be to them more than & gift from the gods if they knew. that war would be no more. If they were attacked on whom should they call? The League of Nations ? But would it come, and would it come in time? These things were vital to them. Who was to say that this latest instru- ment would prove more, effective than the Hague Tribunal? Time alone could show whet er this League could do all that its most ardent advocates claimed. And in the meantime what was the policy of the Empire to be.

The League of Nations was incompatible with the British Empire as we knew it, b cause the British Empire rested upon a Navy, unchallenged and un- Challangable. What was the de- fence policy of this Empire? No one could tell them. What was it to be in the future? No one knew.

THE BOND OF TRADE. Continuing, Mr. Hughes said: Levme turn turn for a moment to that other boud-trade. The future of Britain, the keystone in the Imperial areh, dpended upon mir khandant supply of rzw materials, which happily are abla almost wholly within

She has a Socialist Government. And what is its battle cry? Frotect the Kaiser." "Over our bodies you must pass before you touch this sacred ikon.” - Äs a race the Germans have not re- pented. They are a raca: of liars, of cheats. Their word is not to be relied on. (Cheers.) They will put their names to the Treaty, but 88 800 as we cease to have the power to compel them, that Treaty will be but another scrap of paper.

GERMANY UNREPENTANT,

Let us not live in a paradise of fools, Germany has not repeat- ed. Scapa Flow, the utterances of all her public men, prove that she is to-day what she was yes- terday. She will again endeavour to worm her way into "your citadels, to capture your trade. And whether she succeeds or not depends upon you. If you thinkyou can combat her without a policy let me say that is impossible. Not one of your manufacturers will risk his capitel in the extension of an old plant or the construc- tion of a new until he knows where he stands. The war has kindled in the breasts of the Dominions a new spirit of nation- alism.. But we are not less lovers of Empire for that. We want to see in this place, the cradle of

from the Imperial standpoint, our race, a recognition of Empire something of Empire other than lip service, something that will show recognition of the greatness of our heritage, ex- pressed in terras of a policy that shall make for its permanence. (Cheers.)

who, he said, was among those who had stood fast for England. He was not able to say that on- reservedly of all, but Mr. Long never had any doubt whatever. (Cheers.)

The Chairman, replying, said they all desired to see the Empire become even greater and more united than in the past.

EARLIER TELEGRAMS.

RUMANIANS AND HUNGARY.

Paris, Aug. 13. ** a Nearly all Paris papers hope for a satisfactory under- standing in the Hungarian situation. It is obvious that recognition of the Archduke's, Government is closely con- nected with the Rumanian question and it is necessary to watch the elections suggested by the Archduke.

Paris, Aug. 14.

It appears that the Supreme Council has not yet re- ceived a reply to the Rumanian Government Eat has con sidered a report from the Allied Commission of Generals at Budapest describing a conversation with M. Diamands, the Ramanian High Commissioner, who denied that the Ruman- ian Government supported Archduke Joseph's coup d'etat. The Generals told M. Djamands they were instructed to supervise the execution of the armistice M. Diamands replied that he must consult General Madarescu there- adent. M. Diamands agreed to examine the question of re- quisitioning foodstuffs and railways and admitted that. fresh demands had been presented to Archduke Joseph with reference to frontiers but he denied they were az ultima iam of which the latter had complained to the Generals. A subsequent telegram from the Generals informed the

•Connell that the Rumanian Govemment had declined to sccept orders from the mission and they asked

confirmation of instructions.

The Supreme Council has instructed the Inter-Allied Military Mission of Generals at Budapest that they consti- tute a Diplomatic Missión, hence they are not entitled to give orders the Rumanian Army. The mission is also in- structed not to commit the Supreme Council to recogni. tion of the new regime because the Council does not know whether it will prove "stable

The Rumanian replies to the Supreme Council's notes as regards the occupation of Budapest have been received. It is understood they are of a conciliatory nature and that Rumanian officers in Budapest have been instructed to immédiately communicate with the Allied Generals with a view to avoiding complications.

The Rumanian reply handed to the Supreme Council is conched in conciliatory and dignified language. It urges that the, army is not guilty of excesses in Hungary, that Rumania does not desire to separate herself from the Allies, and points out that the telegraphic request to stop the march on Budapest was not received until the city was entered Other telegrams from the Pexes Conference were similarly delayed. It points out that Rumanis couki not anticipato that the Conference would insist on the maintenance of the November armistice after her army, mataiming consider-, able losses, bad, at the request of the Conference, driven "the Bolshevist Government from Budapest: In view of this effort the Goverment considered it only just to requisition supplies especially as a great deal of material, of which Romania as stripped by the Central Powers "centrated "Phere.
