A WARNING.
"To-day you may, I believe, drive with safety on the roads at 60 miles an hour, but if this country ever tries to travel in constitutional change at 60 miles an hour the Constitution will be wrecked, and it will be wrecked as it always has been in these rapid changes, in disaster and bloodshed. We must try not to copfuse acceleration with civilisation. I think it may well be a generation or two hence before men — I will not say will realise, but can properly appreciate historically, what the results of the Great War were on the mentalifcy of , Europe. Certain it is that we have a phenomenon in Europe to-day new to all of us, a phenomenon that may have been seen at rare intervals in the course of history." — Mr Stanjpy Baldwin.
