a hurry; clear
out of the way." You know the type of motorist, the terror of the roads,
with a sixty horse-power car, who thinks the roads are made for him, and
knocks down anybody who impedes the action of his car by a single mile
an hour. The Prussian Junker is the road-hog of Europe. [Applause.]
Small nationalities in his way are hurled to the roadside, bleeding and
broken. Women and children are crushed under the wheels of his cruel
car, and Britain is ordered out of his road. All I can say is this: If
the old British spirit is alive in British hearts, that bully will be
torn from his seat. [Loud applause.] Were he to win, it would be the
greatest catastrophe that has befallen democracy since the day of the
Holy Alliance and its ascendency.

"Through Terror to Triumph."

They think we cannot beat them. It will not be easy. It will be a long
job; it will be a terrible war; but in the end we shall march through
terror to triumph. [Applause.] We shall need all our qualities--every
quality that Britain and its people possess--prudence in counsel, daring
in action, tenacity in purpose, courage in defeat, moderation in

It has pleased them to believe and to preach the belief that we are a

counters, while we egg on more gallant races to their destruction. This
is a description given of us in Germany--"a timorous, craven nation,
trusting to its fleet." I think they are beginning to find their mistake
out already, [applause,] and there are half a million young men of
Britain who have already registered a vow to their King that they will
cross the seas and hurl that insult to British courage against its
perpetrators on the battlefields of France and Germany. We want half a
million more; and we shall get them. [Loud applause.]

Wales must continue doing her duty. That was a great telegram that you,
my Lord, read from Glamorgan. ["Hear, hear!"] I should like to see a
Welsh Army in the field. [Loud applause.] I should like to see the race
that faced the Norman for hundreds of years in a struggle for freedom,
the race that helped to win Crecy, the race that fought for a generation
under Glendower against the greatest captain in Europe--I should like to
see that race give a good taste of its quality in this struggle in
Europe; and they a
