LABOUR AND PEACE TREATY
MANIFESTO OF PROTEST ISSUED. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received June 2, 10.20 p.m.) LONDON, May 21. Thirty-three Labour leaders have signed a manifesto protesting against a Peace Treaty drawn up secretly by the Ministers of a few great Powers. Tho treaty, it is averred, violated the Government’s pledges, particularly Mr I/lojd George’s pledges to Labour on January sth. It is further urged that the Treaty does not recognise the change following the German revolution, resulting in the establishment of a social democracy. The Treaty, it is held, contains the germs of now con flicts and creates conditions of unrest and injustice which must make the League of Nations, if it survives, merely the instrument of Imperialism.
