FOR ANGLo-sAxoN FRIENDSHIP
Walter Besant Would Open Society,"
Doors to Americans.


Sir Walter Besant, the chief promoter
of the recently formed fraternal associa-
tion called the Atlantic Union, the object
of which is to bring visitors from America
into closer relations with Englishmen, said
In recent interview in London:
distinguished Americans bring letters
OF introduction which open every door,
but most of our American visitors are not
provided with them. They stay at the
hotels, go to our places of public amuse-
ment and drive through London, but the
door of true English life is closed to them
l want scheme that will draw together
all of the various peoples who speak En-
glish and who live under similar laws and
institutions.
These people are. 1t is true, Of mixed
descent. Some are descended from the
Celt. others from the German. Scandina-
Wan, French, Finnish or Spanish stock
The Englishman himself is an amalgam
of the Saxon, Celtic, Norman, Danish and
Flemish races. Yet these are all absorbed
and go to produce races which at present
differ only slightly from each other
The union, of which Sir Walter Besant
is treasurer, hopes to enable visitors from
America and the colonies to meet and be-
come acquainted with English residents.
A program of social functions has been
drawn up. and in doing this the help of
various existing societies in England has
been enlisted.

that some limit should be placed upon the

Mr.. Babcock-"The amendment specifies

amounts to nothing. Congress would be

tect: James G. Hill, and is approved py

was commissioned for the express purpose
of computing with the utmost accuracy ana
detail the cost of the bridge. which un-
derstand they have done in eXtenSo. 1ney
were authorized and instructed to do TINS
by act of Congress In pursuance OF
which they have acted. To say that WIN
such report before we cannot act IN
telligently is. 1t seems to me. rather begging
the question. for we cannot hope to get
from any board a more intelligent and ex-
haustive report than that already SUBJ
mitted.
Mr.. Babcock-"I understand. Mr.. Speak
er. that this report has been submitted py
the War Department in answer to reso-
luton adopted by Congress, and to GER
tain extent the plans submitted by this
board have been approved. But l do not
understand that the report has been even
considered by any committee to which this
proposed legislation properly belongs. The
committee on interstate and foreign COM
