THE EIGHTH COMMANDMENT
LORD HALSBURY'S REBUKE TO ... THE KAISER. (Rec. December 15, 8.45 p.m.) London, December 15. Lord Halsbury, formerly Lord Chancellor, in.a speech at Westminster, said that the Eighth Commandniant had a universal application. He protested against the blaephemoue cant of any man thinking, himself ''appointed by God" to seize another's property. Any Emperor wanting to possess a world Empire_ by seizing countries smaller than his own was a dirty thief, and ought to be hanged. Hβ trusted that the war would result in a general agreement .that the peoples established in their own countries shall not be disturbed unloss interference is fully justified.
The Eighth Commandniant reads :— "Thou 6halt not steal." '
