The union, is now agreed Jhpon ied!uctional text books, and is organising study circles C 'T adults and children. The work is so extensive that it is exceeding the .scope and it appeals to private generosity.. Tli© signatories, who are Viscount Grey, Lloyd Gaorge, Lord Beatty, Mr Asquith, Lord Robert Cecil, Mr J. RClyncs, and ,General Hubert Gough, declare that if the world is allowed to relapse into pre-war antagonists ambitions, it would be the greatest triumph of evil in all the ages.
