Lord Grey, who was the guest of the Foreign Press
Association in London on Monday at a public luncheon, made one of the most sagacious, and also one of the Most vsei0I, speeches delivered since the beginning of the war. Not only did he support fully the fearless and plain-spoken words of Mr. Aaqiiitli and Mr. Lloyd George, but he dealt with firm touch and Unerring truth with the Monstrous legend that the war was forced on Germany by the Allies. He tore to pieces this tissue of cant and lies, and Shetred how Germany was the aggressor, and hoW therefore the Allies Meat hate guarantees of future peace. the Foreign Secretary went en to point out, though he would be the fait to admit that there was no necessity to emphasize the fact, that no one of the Allies *Could separate from any of the others, since such action would mean that itation'e destruction. For all of them unity was essential not Merely to attain victory but for their future security. Germany's efforts to separate them only confirined their joint resolve to stand back to back and fight it out to the end.
