London, Aug.
13th.—A majority
of the
morning
Dnewspapers
'approve,
either
wholly, or in the
main,
the
British note
to France
and Belgium.
“‘The note
is so
strong,
but
not
too
strong’’,
says.the
Times.
‘'lt was, high time
such
= clear
statement
of the British case
was made’’.
This
newspaper
adds
that
the
Govern-
ment
put
its
case regarding
the
Allied
debt
with ‘‘gratifying
firmness’’,
and
contends
that
the
taking of separste
ac-
tion
by
Great
Britain
would
‘'be
the
logical result of such
a
frank expression
of policy’’.
The
newspaper
urges
that
“ifGreat Britain is to act,
she
must
act
guickly,
for her
own
sake
and for the
sake of Europe.
‘‘The
Daily Teiegraph
deserihes
the

from

“'On
that account
.lone the support of a
great
majority of

people

side of the Government”’.
‘“However”’,
the
newspaper
regretfully
adds "if the
phrases
which underlined
the incompati-
bility of
the
French
and British stand-
points
accurately
represent. the
facts,
the spirit of mutuality,
which -made
the
alliance
a strong living thing,
animates
it no longer we shall:have
te deal with a
gadly
changed
situation’’. The Liberal
newspapers
while recognizing
the
seri-
ousness
of the situatien support
the note,
The
Daily
News
says
it was
time
for
the
Government
to
speak
out
and
that,
‘its
frankness
is all
the
more
imgressive
for the. unparalleled
forbear-
afce
it
has- shown’’.

No
other
‘course
was
consistent
with the
dignity
and
interests
of this country and
we dn
not
regret
one
word
of
the
ju-tifiable
resentment
which
underlies
the
earlier
sentences
of the British reply.
We have
reached
the point where there
can
be
no
turning
back
on
our
part’”’.
The
Daily
Chronicle asks indignantly
why the Brit-
ish position
was not made
clear long agzo,
before
the Ruhr was occupied,
and says
that
the
failure
of the
Government
to
display
the
strength
of the. British case
to
the world had
been
one of its
worst
faults,
France,
says
this
newspaper,
has been
far ahead of Britain in the arms
of
publicity, with the
results that,
‘‘we
have
nothing like
the tsolid
widespread
backing from neutrals,
especially
Ameri-
can opinion to which the moral excellence
of our case entitles us’’.
The
fndepend:
ent
Daily Express
thinks
some
parts
of
the note will astonish
the public,
but
ap-
proves of the position
adopted
regardiny
the
debt
question.
The Morning
Post,
torn between
loyalty to the
Government
and
advocacy
of the
French
cause,
is
concerned
with the gravity of the
issues
raised,
the profound
differences
between
the
two Goverments
and
the
‘‘dreadful
catastrophe
to
which
those
differences,
if permitted
to
develop,
may
some
day
lead’’.
This
paper
is
convinced
that
separate
action
by Great
Britain,
*‘will
lead
only
to
the
abyss’’.
The
‘‘Daily
Mail”’finds the note
bad and stupid ard
says
it will make
the
situation
much
worse
than before.
