(UNITED PHEKS ASSOCIATION.—COPYRICIHT.i (AOSTBAMAN-NBW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) LONDON, 21st May (delayed). Thirty-three Labour leaders have signed a manifesto protesting against a Peace Treaty drawn up secretly by Ministers of a few of the Great Powers. The Treaty violated tho Government's pledges, particularly Mr Lloyd George's pledges, to Labour on sth January. It is further urged that the Treaty does not recognise the change, following on the German revolution, which has resulted in the establishment of a social democracy.
