EUROPEAN PEACE,

The prize winner also favours a European mutual guarantee, treaty, or a similar paot to which Britain and Ireland should adhere with the consent of the Dominions, who, however, would not participate. A survey of tho other thirty-six prize winning plans and essays of the 4700 British and Dominion competitors, shows that nearly half regard the Looguo as the chief instrument of international co-operation. The majority, urge admission of Germany to the league. The guarantee. pact is widely supportod---Reuter.
