POINT OF VIEW
+1
(SPECIAL TO THE "HONGKONG DAILY PRESS")
The youth of the world which new to manhood after the last World War includes many men of Bifferent countries called to the war in its final stages. Mr. Anthoar Eden' is one of those men. He is one of those who actually experienced the borrors of warfare and has an understanding of warface which is as real as that possessed by Hitler, the German Chancellor. And if the ons, a Ger- man, plays with the danger of war as a weapon of international politics, the other, an English gentleman, `regards war as the final arbiler of national polfey and a weapon to be used only in the last extremity.
Mr. Eden was committed to a policy of collective security by his elders in the British Cabinet at a time when it was clear that the League of Nations had already been discredited by those same elder members, many of whom were already numbered among the "realista”, of Europe. Sir Samuel Hoare and Monsieur Pierre Laval openly followed a policy of "realism' in the solution of the Abyssinian war by betrayal, and struck a discordant note, in world opinion. This note was markedly stronger among the English-speaking peoples of the world. And Mr. Eden was brought in to demonstrate the con- cern which the British Cabinet of that time felt for the ideals of Justice and freedom of nations.
