EARLY PEACE SETTLEMENT.
MR LLOYD GEORGE ASKED TO
REMAIN IN FRANCE.
PARIS, Mar. 18. The Commission of the Control of International Waterways has decided that an Allied Commission shall control future navigation on the Rhine.—Aus.N.Z. Cable Aesn.
President Wilson, M. Clemenceau and Signor Orlando, in a letter to Mr Lloyd George, asked him to postpone his return to Britain for a fortnight, in view of an early peace settlement, at which Mr Lloyd George's presence is absolutely essential. The signatories realise the urgency of the Premier's presence in England, but contend that the world settlement at this stage is .all-important. Mr Lloyd George has decided to submit the letter to Cabinet.
PARIS, Mar. 19. Probably Mr Lloyd George will remain as requested.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Aim.
