Viscount Bryce Says Trium
phant G-armany Would be
Menace to All Nations.
London, Ens, March J9. Viscount
Brc former ambassador at Waeh-
, uiKton, has written an article on "The
I attitude of Great Britain In the pres
ent war," in which he says
"We in Britain who respect and valuo
the opinion of the free neutral peoples
of Europe and America cannot but de
sire that those peoples should be duly
Informed of the way in winch we rt
gad tha circumstances and possible re
sults of the present conflict"
Lord Brj'-e sajs there are five prin
ciples on whioh the aims and ideals
of Britain in the piesent crisis are
essentially different from those of
(Jerroany Continuing- he says.
I The English Ideal.
' "Our English ideal for the future is
of a world in which eierj people shall
have within its own borders a free na
tional government resting oh, and con
forming; to, the general will of its
citizens, a government able to devote
its efforts to improving the condition
of the people without encroaching on
its neighbors, or being disturbed b
; the fear of an attack from enemies
abroad. Legislators and administra-
i Torn ruivo alVeadv tasks sufficiently
difficult in reconciling the claims e
different classes, in adjusting the ln
terests of capital and laoor. in promot
ing health and diffusing education and
enlightenment, without the addition of
those tasks and dangers which arise
from the terror of foreign war.
"I cannot believe that the German
people, as I haTe hitherto know n them,
ever since I studied at a German uni
versity, more than 60 years ago conld
possibly approve of the action of their
.n.,n.hi if thif e-nvirftment suf-

ins; to the 6rigln and conduct of the
war as those facts are known to the
rest ot the world e have h-d no

Neither liave we any wish to break
up Germany, destroying her national
unity, or to Interfere In any way with
her internal politics Our quarrel is
with the German government We
think it a dancer to every peaceful
country and believe that in fighting
against its doctrines, Its ambitions, its
methods of warfare, we and our allies
are virtually fighting the battle of all
peace-loving neutral nations as well
as our own I
.Must right Till 1 1ctnrj Won. j
"We must fight on till victory is
won. for a government which acorns
treaties and wages an Inhuman warfare
against Innocent non-combatants can
not be suffered to prevail by such
methods. A triumphant and aggres
sive Germany, mistress of the ream as
well as of the land, would be a menace
to every nation, even to those of the
western hemisphere."
Lord Bryce concludes, with i plea
for a league of peace. "The obstacles
In the way of creating su-h a league
are man) and obvious," he says, "but
whatever else may come out of the war.
