EARLIER TELEGRAMS.
(Continued from Page 2 P AMERICAN GOVERNMENT PARALYSED.”
Washington, July 6. Sonator Underwood, who is sometimes called a presidential possibility for 1924, and who recently returned from Europe, has issued a statement urging the United States to help in the read- Justment of the world; and arraigning the American Government as paralysed, "without a policy, as regaids hie, affairs of Europe, without courage or conviction, and without anything that makes a mae a man, or a government a government." Senator Underwood, however, does not favour the United States joining the World Court.
THE SINGAPORE BASE.
London, July 6.
The Liverpool Journal of Commerce regrets the attempts of mischief-makers in Japan to arouse feeling against Britain, over the new naval base at Singapore and declares it ridiculour to describe the establishment of the base as an offensive nove against Japan. It points out that had we harboured any such thoughts, we would certainly not have broken up the naval base, at Weihai- wei, which would certainly have been a loaded pistol at the heads of the Japanese.
"
The new base, besides protecting British commerce and Aug- tralasia will permit us to exercise a steadying influence should the discussed war-in the Pacific ever come to pass. In such an event, one of the first things to be done by cne or the other of the belli- serents would certainly be an attempt to seize the badly protected Dutch Indies, which could not be allowed by us, owing to the balance of power, and Singapore would be a very excellent means of Preventing it. It is to be feared that "hoth the malcontents in Japan and the anti-British section in the United States lay them- selves open to the suspicion of counting on the seizure of the Dutch Indies in the event of war.
London, July 6.
In a letter to the Morning Post Mr. F. C. Penny. replying to Mr. Darbishire's letter of the 2nd inst., declares that Mr. Darbishire's statement that the Singapore naval base would probably cont nearer £30,000,000 than £10,000,000, is unsupported by any evidence. He is personally of the pinion, that the estimated cost is ample As regard Mr. Darhishire's suggestion that 'Great Britain should depend upon the goodwill of Japan, Mr. Penny declares that the measure of Japanese goodwill towards the British Empire will vary 3 ulways in the past, in direct ratio to the strength of the empire in the Far East. He emphasises that the scheme is purely defensive, and that those best qualified to judge ccnsider it essential for the safety of the Empire. It would be a thousand, pities, he says, if it became merely h counter game in parly polities,
