The desirability of the cultivation of warm Anglo-American relations was the keynote of a speech made by Lord Reading as the E. C. Fincher, st. Davies, b

The United States Administration and Congressmen, irrespective of party, united to meet the situation by passing an Act practically without discussion, because any debate thereon would have been serious. The measure which was passed with almost record speed and enacted within a very few days enabled the release of millions Pearce of ounces of silver for despatch to India, a country with which it was. not concerned. As far as he knew the United States had since made no claim upon the matter. Lord Reading concluded with references to India and confidently believed Indians would warmly respond to the generous treatment of Britons and Americans.
