Mr. Roosevelt dwe1t upon the baIeful
influence of the nationalist party in

BILE of guaranteeing justice. Nor had
England shown enough of its strength.
You have tried to do too much,'' he
said, ''in the interests of the Egyp-
tians themselves. Those who have to

Comment of London Papers on the
Speech.
London, June 1.-The London morn
ing newspapers editorialy treat Col
onel RooseveltS speech without resent
ment and meet his candid advice in
rather bantering spirit, as coming
from a privileged person.
The radical Chronicle takes its a
compliment to Anglo-American soli-
darity but doubts whether it would
be wise for a British ex-premier to
initiate the performance in New York
or Washington.
The conservative papers are inclined
to welcome the advice.
The Standard says: 1.-THE speech
was more piquant than polite. 1t is
put crudely but may do us good"
The Telegraph thanks the colonel for
his bitter medicine" but believes that
the British people are sensible enough
to swallow the dose.
The Daily News alone seriously takes
Mr.. Roosevelt to task for "a breach of
manners"
