THE FATEFUL HOUR.

REVIEW BY 'BONAR LAW. At the 'Government dinner to the International 'Commercial Conference, Mr Bonar Law said, in reference to the coming blow, that it would not be less dangerous 'because of the time taken in preparations. The allied High Command was confident as regards the result the fateful hour of the war had arrived. If three mouths hence the enemy had gained 110 strategic objectives, then their campaign would have failed, and he hoped it would be a decisive failure. The Government had not lost hopes of 'Russia. Germany was already learning that she was not getting what she anticipated from Russia. As regards the economic question, the allied 'Governments were practically agreed with the views of the Commercial Conference. The alliance would, after the war, continue to stand together in order to repair the ravages of Hie war. There was 110 immediate hope of peace, which was obtainable only through victory.
