PRESS COMMENTS ON THE PEACE.
London. Jan. 12.
The Daily Chronicle" says it will save much trouble » if the Allies set out a rigorous, exacting punctuality and strictness in the fullment of Germany's obligations. Relaxa- tion of the terus can be cvalidered when Germany has shown good faith,
The "Daily News' says the drab agreement is not the peace anxiously anticipated a year ago yet the absence of pomp and drama prompts the hope that the peace which has dawned under so humble circumstances may prove a more real peace than loudly heralded mileniums.
The Times" says a new era opens with the old maxims of political honour so bright that they ought to shine for all time. The peace has been signed: is has now to be made and the League of Nations is the instrument. The absence of America and Russia has diminished the power of the League but England and France are ready to shoulder the responsibility of the League alone, hoping, to obtain reinforcement later. The Anglo-French Alliance must therefore be drawn closer but we shall welcome any sign of a new political spirit in Cermany earning her admittance to the League.
