FINANCE AND WAR.
"MAD RUSH FOR ARMAMENTS." By Telfljrw)fc—Preis AartciatlflH—Copjrlu'M London, Jnly 13. Mr. Lloyd-George, Chancellor of tho Exchequer, speaking at the Bankers' dinner at the Mansion House, said It was impossible to hope for a reduction in taxation until tho mad rush for increasing armaments had been arrested, not in England alone, but all countries. "No individual country can afford to disarm," said Mr. Lloyd-George. "We cannot, in tho slightest degree, decrease our immunity against invasion." Two years ago, he added, financial interests on the Continent had stopped a war, and only the great financial interests would effectively arrest the present terrible growth of armaments.
