WHEN PEACE IS MADE.
>~0 STACKENLNG OF TERMS. When speaking at tbe Orphans' Club gathering on Saturday night, Sir Joseph Ward referred to the time when peace terms would be discussed. He said:— "The Allies are going to win the war: there is not the slightest doubt of that. When peace is declared —and I believe it will take, six or twelve months to settle all the terms—-we want as one of the important branches of the Empire to be sure that the generosity which is characteristic of the British toward a vanquished foe is not going to be allowed to have sway. We want to show a.s much consideration to the enemy as he would have shown to us if he had won."" (Applause.) Dealing with the terms of peace. Sir Joseph Faid that if Germany were not allowed to use the Suez and Panama Canal on the same terms as the Allies it would settle the question of the future trade in Europe and America better than all the preferential tariffs in the world.
