Only recently there was another instance of America's co-operative leaning towards the west. We re- fer to the breakdown in the naval conversations · and also Japan's denunciation of the Washington Treaty, and in this connection it may be stated that General Smuts's speech serves only to continue the attitude developed in London. The very fact that Britain might be induced by an offer of favoured treatment for her commercial in- terest in China to renew her old alliance with Japan has had the effect of bringing home to Ameri- can statesmen the rank foolishness of diplomatic Isolation in the Pacific. On the other hand actual consideration of such a step made British statesmen realise, more than ever, what havoc shortsighted expediency might play among the vital ties which bind the English speaking world At that time an epochal speech by General Smuts emphasised the Dominions desire to "march" with America and crystallized a deep and widespread feeling among Britons in every comer of the globe that this "fundamental affinity, coming from the past, stretching to the future, is, or must be, the real foundation of all British foreign policy."
