THE UNITED ELECTRIC LIGHT & WATER CO. 94 West Main St.,, New Britain, Conn. i AT WILSON’S SPEECH | i | 1 TENGLAND REJOIGES | Mention of President’s Name Cheered in House of Commons ! London, April 4—From the Prime Minister down all ranks of the British democracy have been stirred to the depths of feeling by the declaration | which the President of l ! | the United States made on behalf of the Ameri- can Nation. * “Hands Across the Sea,” is no longer an adequate expression of the relatiofiship Letween the two great English-speaking peoples. It 15! now a union of hearts forged by .the bonds of a common fight for liberty and justicé, the rights of small nations and the cause of the common people, There are few, if any, outward signs of rejoicing in London. Some peaple expected to see flags break out all over town. But the British metro- polis hasn’t acquired Berlin's fondness for displaying bunting, and even ‘American business houses in the main have refrained from any demonstra- tion. Everywhere, however, there is cladness of heart and animation of spirit. | “It’s a great day” is the com- mon phrase heard in all quarters, high and low, in the /government palaces of Whitehall and on the tops of Strand omnibuses. King George will undoubtedly him- self give expression to his sentiments, for he has inherited all the demo- cratic instincts of his father, Edward VII, who admired America and on numberless occasions spoke to Amert- cans of his liking for their country and its liberty-loving institutions. His present Majesty’s public ‘utter- ances in regard to the new situation will of course-be governed by the pro- tocal; but it may be predicted that the King before many days are past will show how heartily he is in‘sym- pathy with the® free democracies within the British Empire. Full Measure of Warfare, Dispatches from Washington, even of recent date, had left some impres- sion that Amemcan participation in the war would be on a scale of limited Tability. All apprehension on that score has beéen removed by the stir- ring words with which the President’s address ‘closed. His survey of whai cohstitutes the best interests ‘of the United States is regarded here as dis- playing a' great statesman's breadth of view.: Particular - satisfaction is felt at his reférence to *“the ‘wisdom of interfering as little as possible with the duty, of supplying. the nations al- ready at war with Germany with the material they . can obtain only from her:or with her assistance.” - In.some quarters it is bflie\'ed thatiAmerica’s participation in!the WAP \vnnfl Dma ent’s dach- ration, coupled with the fact that war is . proposed against Germany alone, and not against Austria-Hungary, has Jed to the belief that the United States will not subscribe to the Allies’ peace terms of December 30, -although there is no ‘fundamental reason why it 'should not do so ,especially now as recent events in Russia have made the revision of one particular feature of those peace-terms more than a possibility. The internatignalization of the Dardenelles is, rding to many leaders of Runhn pinion, a sufficient solution. of the Problem of Russia’s access to the open seas which the Romanoff dynasty wanted to translate into Russian jownersiip of the strait with the occupation of Constantinople. With some revision in this and one or two other particu- lars of the allied peace terms, America might heartily associate her- self with the spirit of that declaration. So far as the compact of London is concerned, there is general expecta- tion that America will be wholly in accordance with it, even if the neces- sity of affixing her signature to'that memorable document does not arise. The idea that peace may come 3l- most at once is not held in responsible quarters. Herr Ballin’s prophecy and the suggestions of the Berlin Lokal- Anzeiger are regarded as possibly preliminary to some mnew peace maneuver by the Central Powers, but even those people here who most be- lieve in a change of heart of the German people consider that the Ger- man Government is still strong encugh to suppress its translation into acts. Peace offers may be made by Germany, but the general opinion will be deceived if they are anything but illusory. 1 find that practically the only people who are sanguine about early peace are those who have throughout the war held the theory that it was the German government’s plan to pro- voke America tc war so as to save the face of the Fohenzollerns. The message is taken to show clearly that machinations of that sort will have scant chance of success. President Cheered in Commons, London, April 4—A storm of ap- plause was aroused in the Hause of Commons by mention of President Wilson’s address to Congress. Sir Henry Dalziel asked Andrew Bonar Law whether he was in a position to give any information as to the de- cision of the American Cangress in re- gard to war. The Chancellor of the Exchequer replied: ‘I have jugt recelved a telegram from our ambassador in Washington, in which, after referring to the speech of President ‘Wilson, he adds that in his opinion it was well received by Congress and he expected the au- thority asked for would be given.” ‘When President Wilson’s name was mentioned the members applauded, and they cheered again when the Chancellor told them what the am- bassador had cabled. 1t is understood that Premier Lloyd George proposes to attend the session of tha House of Commons for the pur- $AY, APRIL 4, 1917, A new thmg for a cigarette to do- I OTS of cigarettés may please the taste — that’s all you've ever expected from a cigarette.
