MUST CHANGE POLICY
AND ADOPT A MORE CONClL-
IATORY ONE.
England May Then Reach an
Understanding With France
and Russia.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-Discussng
the possibility OF an Anglo-Russian un-
dsrtakng the Paris Journal des De-
bates quoted bv the Paris correspond
ent of the London Times and New York
Times says two conditions are indis-
pensible:
First, Great Britain must cease to
thwart Russian policy; secondly, she
must cease to thwart Franoh policy
where the two powers are destined to
live side by side.
After commenting on an editorial ar
ticle in the London Times Of last
Saturday regarding the Importance Of
the Persian Gulf to British interests.
the Journal des Debats insists again
on the necessity OF the British showing
the same concillatory spirit toward
France as to Russia.
The paper concludes with an express
sion Of the belief that. by means OF
conditions equally acceptable to both
Russia ana France, an understanding
between Great Britain and the dual al
lance would be possible.
