Conflict Nearly Produced Outbreak

From Unrest and , Starvation
Llovd Georae Pleads Moderation.
LONDON, - April 16. Questions
that had never been heard of before
the wac nearly produced a conflict
between two of the allied states, Mr.
Lloyd George stated today, and there
were a number of such questions.
But he added, after all It was quar
rels over small states which' bad
made the great war. He spoke of the
difficulties In the Balkans and
added:
"One of the features of the present
situation, owing to the breaking up
of the Central Empires. Is that cen
tral Europe has been Balkanlzed Into
small states. Car must be taken
lest causes ot future unrest be cre
ated by the settlement made."
The premier sharply criticised cer
tain newspaper, attacks that bad been
made In connection with the peace
conference, saying: j
"Wtien this kind of disease is car
ried to the point of sowing dissension
between great allies whose unity Is
essential for the peace ot the world
when an attempt Is made to make
Prance mistrust : Great Britain,
France to hate Amejica, and America
to dislike France and. Italy, not even
that kind of-disease Is justification
for so black a rime against human
ity." Reduce Armament . .
Reforrinc to the necessity of re;
turning to paths of peace and ot re
ducing armaments, the premier said
that the forces of the country which
had kept Europe in arms for forty
years were to be reduced to an army
which would be only adequate enough-
to police' her cities and protect Per
commerce. There were suggestions
that there might be a war recrudes
cence In Germany. That was not a
danger. Mr. Lloyd George asserted
because only with difficulty could
Germany raise 80,000 men to pre
serve order. The danger, be sam.
was of the world going to pieces.
adding: ' ' ' V
"A real danger tho gaunt spectre
of hunger Is stalking ; thru the
land."
Premier Lloyd George concluded
by pleading to all "not to soil their
triumph of right by indulging In the
angry passions of mankind, but to
consecrate the sacrifices of millions
to the redemption of the human race
from the scourge and agony of war,

ON ALL SIDES
Lloyd George Explains Russian Pol
lev in House of Commons Defends
Allied Aid to Kolchak and Denikine
Confine Bolshevik! to Russian
Soil and Let Them Fight it Out.
LONDON, April 16. The question
of Russia was one of the most com
plex problems ever dealt with by any
body of men, Mr. Lloyd George point
ed out in bis speech today. One dif
ficulty was tbat there was no Russia.
"There Is an organization controlling
central Russia, and there is nobody
who can say it is even a defacto gov
ernment for the whole of Russia,1
he declared. "Even If we could under
the circumstances recognize the Bol
shevik government, we cannot recog
nize it as the defacto government in
Russia. It is just like a volcano
which Is still .In eruption, and the
best we can do 1b to provide security
for those .dwelling on Its remotest
and most Inaccessible slopes and ar
rest the flow of lava so that It shall
not scorch other lands." '
The premier said he might be ask
ed why he supported Admiral Kol
chak and General Denikine., He
would tell the house frankly, he said.
When the treaty of Brest-Litovsk was
signed, he explained, large parts of
Russia had oo hand in the shameful
act and: were- In-'revolt against the
government which signed It. . . ,
..Defends Military Policy V r:
"They raised arms .at our instiga
tion and largely at our expense." he
added, "but that was absolutely
sound military policy, because with
out those organizations the Germans
would have secured all the resources
which would have.enapled them to
break the blockade.". . ,
"Bolshevism," continued the pre
mier, "had threatened to impress by
force of arms its . domination over
those populations which had revolt
ed against it and it would have been
an act thoroly unworthy of any great
land to say to those populations 'we
are exceedingly obliged to you; you
have served your purpose and we
need you no longer' and have left
them to the Bolshevik troops. It is
our duty, since we asked them to
take this step, to promise them .sup
port. We are not sending troops,
because every Russian thought that
If Russia were to be redeemed she
must be redeemed by her own sons,
and they asked that they be supplied
with the necessary arms."
The premier said he did not con
sider that this was a departure from
the fundamental policy of Great Bri
tain ot not interfering In the Internal
affairs of any land. . He continued:
Blockade of Arms !
"Our policy is to arrest the flood
of the present forcible eruption of
Bolshevism Into allied lands and for
that reason we are organizing all the
forces 'in allied countries bordering
on Russian territory from the Black
sea to the Baltic- It the iBolshevlkl
attackany ot our allies it is pur busl
ness to defend them. .
"This is our policy, but we want
peace in Russia. The world will not
be passive as long as Russia is torn
and rent by civil war.
- "It is our policy to. make peace
among the warring nations not by
recognizing one party, but by induc
ing them to come together - with a
view to setting up some authority in
Russia which would be acceptable to
the whole Russian people and that
the allies could recognize as their
government." 'He did not despair, he
said, ot a solution being found.
"We must havo patience" he warn
ed, "because we are dealing with a
people misgoverned .' for ' centuries,
There are unmistakable signs that
Russia Is emerging, and when she Is
once more sane and normal, the allies
should make peace with her."
