DUAL ALLIANCE
Viewed With Mixed Feelings
by the Liberal Press.

London. Feb. 12.-The Liberal afternoon
newspapers view the new dual alliance"
between Great Britain and Japan. with
mixed feelings and the Conservative or
gans generally applaud It. But the St
James Gazette Conservative expresses
modified rapture at this wide depart
ure from British traditional policy" This
paper, however. finds solace In the
thought that the policy and interests Of
the United states are identical with
those OF Great Britain and Japan and con-
cludes:
Perhaps we shall find. when the policy
of Great Britain is definitely known. that
the United States is formally or inform
ally party to the league of peace in the
far east. At any rate. no effort should De
spared To secure its adhesion"
The Westminster Gazette thinks the al
lance can b. fairly termed Offensive and
defensive. saws that IL therefore has q
dangerously Wide extension and concludes
that II looks like a rather hasty answer
TO European hostility.
