REPATRIATION.
SIR JOSEPH WARD'S VIEWS. (By fable.—Press Association.—Copyright.) and N.Z. Cablo Association.) LONDON, July 19. The committee of the Comrades of the Empire entertained the oversea representatives at dinner at the Naval and Military Club, with a view to coordinating methods dealing with the discharged, and demobilised sailors and soldiers throughout the Empire. Sir Joseph \V4lrd said tiiat the war must end in no uncertain oeace. There was only one course for the British Empire to follow; it must not listen to the pacifist nor the negotiator, but must beat the enemy first, and then see that the terms of peace were so based as to teach the enemy that the only result of such a war was that they should suffer all the consequences. The best way to prepare for the end of the war was to look after the men who fought for us. Sir Joseph detailed what New Zealand was doing. No pensions in the world wero more generous than those which New Zealand was giving. H© hoped the discharged soldier, wherever he went, would be able to enlist assistance as a citizen of the British Empire. The peace terms mast see that the enemy pot no naval or aerial bases in the Pacific.
