Stands by Great Britain.

Berlin, Dec. ga gradual veering
of pubic opinion in Germany regard
ing the war in South Africa is becom-
ing apparent. The change is led By
the inspired section of the press. Fri
day several articles appeared pointing
in the new direction. The Cologne Ga
zette argues strongly against the
folly of administrative Ang.ophobia. q"
1t says: "Germanys real interest
is to maintain absolute neutrality
in sentiment. 1t is wise to retain
Great Britein's good will if Germany
intends to develop colonially."
The Berliner Post contains an OBJ
viously inspired article in which this
argument is made: South African
confederation is impossible without
harbo. and the seashore. Great Brit
ain, as great power, is necessary for
the maintenance of the worlds polit-
zeal equilibrium, and Germany's policy
will be to keep friends with her."
