NOT FIGHTING ON DEFENSE Declares Teutons’ Claims Are Ex- ploded by Lloyd George and President. Nottingham, Eng., Jan. 23.—At the opening today of the annual lavor conference, Frank Purdy, the presi- dent, said that if Germany would not accept the terms President Wilson, Premier Lloyd George, and the Labor party has laid down as the minimum, “we must fight on.” President Purdy said thatin view of the declaration of President Wilson and Premier Lloyd George, Germany could claim no longer that she was fighting a defensive war. “We see no signs yet,” he added, “that Germany and her allies are will- ing to accept the principles enunicated by Mr. Lloyd George, President Wil- son and the labor party.” “Peace, when it comes, must be a general peace, a just peace, a lasting peace, that will secure liberty and freedom for all nations, great and small, a peace based on the will of the people,” said Mr. Purdy. “It must be a peace in which labor national and internationally must play its part in order to secure full and fair consider- ation of its claims. “We appreciate the lofty ideals which induced the United States to join the Allies.” MILITARY FUNERAL FOR WAR VETERAN One of the largest military funer- als ever conducted in Underwood was held Tuesday over the remains of Ira Solenberger, a Civil war veteran and one of the pioneer residents of that place.
