MESSAGE FROM LLOYD GEORGE
NOVEL INCIDENT AT THE
GUILDHALL.
(AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZBAIAND CABIB ASSOCIATION.) LONDON, 16th June. A novel incident occurred at the Victory Loan meeting in the Guildhall. Mr. Lloyd George telephoned a message from Paris, which the chairman read sentence by sentence, and which aroused intense enthusiasm. The Premier said that the cause of right and fair play had won the greatest and costliest triumph. They must beware lest through lassitude and indifference the victory should be left a derelict on the battlefield. It must be enthroned at home and abroad in the new settlement of the world.
Mr. Bonar Law said that the Allies had carefully and honestly examined the German counter-proposals. To-day's reply was final. He earnestly hoped that Germany would sign, because a signed peace was in the interests of the world. The Germans must sign within five days, otherwise the armistice would end.
