FATEFUL HOUR OF THE WAR
ALLIED HIGH COMMAND CONFIDENT \ ADDRESS BY MR. BONAR LAW j (Bee. July 7, 11.35 p.m.) I London, July C. At a Government dinner to tho Inter- : national Commercial Conference, II r. j Bonar Law said, in reference to tho i coming blow, that it would not be less dangerous because of the time taken in the preparations. The Allied High Com- ! niand was confident with regard to its result. The fateful hour of the war had arrived. If three months hence the i enemy had gained no strategic objectives, then his campaign would -have failed, , • and he hoped it would be a decisive fail- i uro. Tho Government had not lost hope ; as regards Russia. Germany was already' ; learning that she was not getting what ; she had anticipated from Russia. As re- . gards tho economic question, the Allied i Governments were practically agreed with ■■ the views of the Commercial Conference, , ■ Tho Alliance would, after the war, continue to stand together in order to repair the ravages of the war. There was no immediate hope of peace, which was : obtainable only through victory.—Routor.
