Leronx (President of the Chamber), the French Ambassador said he wished to appeal to the members of the French colony in London to help in clearing the misunderstandings which existed between Gt. Britain and France. At present too many British people based their opinion of France on prejudices and misconceptions. He felt more at liberty to broach the subject in the presence of British hearers as, when in France, he did his best to make Great Britain better understood by the French people.
