WHEN WARS WILL CEASE

MR MASSEY'S OPINION.

A grunt deal whh hoard, fiald the Prime Minister in the House of Representatives on Thursday night, about the time when swords would be beaten into ploughshares and men would learn the art of war no more. He believed that that time would come, but that it was a long way oft". This generation would not see it.

Mr MaHscy. proceeded to declare his belief that tho time he spoke of would como when the younger nations of tho Empire, like tho people of New Zealand, were grown to maturity and could speak "-with one voice, and the1 Empire would probably l)o able to join with some other of the powerful nations of the earth in" an arrangement for thy peace of the world. The combination would be able, hobolieved, to dictate peace to tho other nations. "That is when peace will come," Mr ; Mnssey concluded, "and it'is not yet."
