ON BOCHE AFTER
WAR DISLIKED
Premier Lloyd George's Willingness
to Use Economic Weapons on Ger

M. for Of'rny, in llio limise of com
mons today during u discussion of
such a league.
Forvitru Secretary Hal four com
plained that ho had heard no really
practical suestions from niemhers
for the attainment of the objects in
view nor any indication where an in
ternational police force to enforce
contracts between nations could be
found.
Tariffs Held Necessary
Unquestionably, he continued, n
league of nations could not afford to
deprive its armory of economic
weapon.-. It is perfectly tn that
the economic weapon is capable of
misuse us witness (iernmn's policy in
Russia, hut he saw no sign of any
country consenting to abandon the
employment of tariffs if it consider
ed them necessary.
Mr. Italfour also contended that
universal disarmament only was pos
sible if it could be proved that tbe
new international agreement had ma
chinery for keeping the world's peace
successfully.
'The last four years," continued
the foreign secretary, ''have convinc
ed the nations that war is n very
costly, bloody and brutnl tiling, but
mil that it is u thing to be thrust
aside.
Xntlonft I toady lo Quarrel
"Frankly, looking around tbe
world, I see the greatest of nations
(iiitc-as ready lo ipiarrcl with each
other as th; mo-d ambitious of their
predecessors.
Sir Hubert Ceil, lord secretary of
stale for foreign affairs, urged that
the conditions of ponce ought to he
made more favorable to those na
tions prepcred to enter a league. He
though the question should he con
sidered fnllv in all its aspects and
a scheme prepared to he put into op
eration immediately after the war if
there was'any prospect of its adop
tion, because a few years' delay
would with tbe shortness of people's I
memories rise in tbe entiling of pres.
cat entbuiasui.
The flil ficullies in the way of es
tablibing such a league were so se
rious, be atlded, that only by the uni
ted efforts of all men of good will
could it he put into execution.

Quotlnn tho phrase "the longer

Chronicle nays:
"We doubt very much whether
that. Is how President Wilson views
the question. It is certainly not the
view of American opinion generally.
Tho Americans do not wish Riich a
weapon wielded with a vindictive
purpose for any fxed period after
tho war.
Premier's nml 1'. S. Policies mfllct
"It will not be possible to carry out
both tho American policy and Lloyd
Cieore'a policy."
'The American suggestion full of

The Dally News eays:
"It Ik Idle for Lloyd George 10

league of nations Is reconcilable with
the spirit underlying and Inspiring
the protective tariff."
Conservative papers, on the other
hand, generally indorse the premier's
address, altho some accuse him of be

units being organized In the United
States.
The war department has ordered a
number of officers back from France
to command brigades In the twelve
new divisions to be formed.
, tynong the officers known to have
received their orders are Brigadier
General Cornelius Vanderbllt, who
'went overseas as a colonel of engi

The chief of stuff has announced
that each new division will be form

KING EMMANUEL
REVIEWS YANKEES
ROME. Thursday, Aug. 1. King
Victor Emmanuel today reviewed the
American troops in the northern Ital
ian war front. The king congratu
lated the commander of the American
forces upon the magnificent appear-
ance of his troops and upon the pro
found Impression they had given of
their military qualities.
HUNS IN FULL RETREAT.
(Continued From rage One.)
Farther toward Ithelms, dispatches
indicate that the important town of
Villo-Kn-Tardenols has been sur
rounded by the Americans and
French.
Reports reaching London say the
success of tho allies on the western
side of (he line is the most important
uccompllshment since the German re
treat from the Marne. The view
taken Is that the advance on Thurs
day was the turning point of the
campaign, and possibly of the whole
war.
'vrninn.s Face Hummcring
While reports received In this
country have not shown the grounds
lor this view, It seems clear that the
German retreat must now be hurried
if the enemy Is to escape a terrible
pounding from the ullles' heavy guns.
Seven hundred prisoners were cap
tured by the French, British and
Americans, bringing the total for the
second Marne battle to over 34.000.
British and French troops from
their new positions outflank the Ger
man line northward to Soissons.
Reports from the battle zone say
tho Germans are fighting to the bit
ter end.

LONDON, Aug. 2. Tho Duchess
of Marlborough, formerly Consuelo
Vanderbllt of New York, has been
accepted as the progressive candidate
for the north" Southwurk division of

IS KEPI SECREI
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2. Newspa
pers were asked today by Secretary
Daniels to eliminate any mention,
either In the advertising or news col
umns of the sailing or departure or
location or supposed location of any
ships not only in American waters
but In any other waters.
Thus amending nis previous re
quest which applied only to American
waters, the naval secretary said ex
perience had shown that publication
of such Information of ships In for
eign waters also is dangerous. The
purpose is to keep from enemy sub
marines operating on this side of the
Atlantic as well those In the war zone
