LONDON AND LOCARNO
I the search for the best methods at assuring peace in Europe, it is natural that the idea of a. definite Franco-British al- Hance should be, discussed. It is the theme of articles in the French newspapers and 16 has been openly advocated in sections of the British press which are, so far as circulation is concerned. extremely important.
Britain has undertaken to do. ΙΠ the event of aggression by France or Germany, Great Britain would, it is assumed, place its forces in the defense of the
attacked nation. "Yet it would claim the right to be the judge of the merits of the matter, and it is quite con- ceivable that there would be a difference of opinion.
Moreover,
1 could put the case before the League of Nations, and, as the French suggest, there would be undue delay. Thus there is some dispute, not as to whether Great Britain would keep its promise, but as to the efficacy of this promise and as to what was in- tended by it.
Hence the new cry for a definite alliance which would take the place of the Locarno pact. France
would then know where it stood. It would be able to rely upor British assistance in foreseeable eventuallties. It would feel secure
and would therefore be able to go some way in the direction of dis- armament. On the other hand, Germany' would know what to expect and its attitude might le greatly influenced.
