Baron Courtney Says Imperialism is Temptation of the Devil-- Lords Needed Because Com. mons Are Untrustworthy. London, - Per. 8.--Léonard Courtney, long prominent: as a govern: ment official, and well known as an independent thinker, speaker, peace advocate and denouncer of the Roer war, was dined. last night. by friends in celebration of his recent eevation to the House of Lorde, wpan which oe- cgsion he took the title of Baron Courtnéy of Penwith. He made a remarkable speech 'on the Position of the Rritish parliament in relation to the eountry. The House of Lords' strength, which 'was not great, Was derived, he said, entirely from fm- perfections of the House of Commons. If the latter house were . better they would not want the House of Lords at all. The House of Commons was the most inadeanate and the least trustworthy reflection of the judg. ment. of the nation. Nothing, declared the speaker. conld be worse than the present outlook. In one house there was an avoarent con- gestion of democracy. and in the oth er the embodiment of all the prejud- ices of position. Baron Courtney de nounced the werlike svirit of recent vears. Imperinlism, he declared. was a temptation of the devil, who is the arch. imperialist, It was a renroach that Cript Pri- tain should be a mation of fighters. Jt ought to be a nation of peacemakers.

In some quarters private enter- prise had done a great deal. but there were not enough of them for the pro- ducers. His idea was that the sovern- ment might help to tide them over the unprofitable years. Of course the gov- ernment would not enter inte com- petition with private enterprise. Capi- tal, he found. was a little shy of such enterprises, and he thought a fair subscription by the covernment would be thirty per cent. of the whole cost, George Taylor. the chief opposition whip, thought this was only another assist- of Mr. Fisher's fads, which fads had been costly.

He said that largely as a result of the policy of the present government, cheese had re: presented an addition of £3.5000.000 a vear to the wealth of this country. Cool curine rooms. refrigerator cars, and refrigerator compnctments on ocean vessg's had given a tremendons fillip to the cheese trade. Nothing had so tended to the welfare .of this country as the poliey of the minister of agriculture in placing sech Cana dian products in prime condition on the British market.
