surance of British support He must
have wished above all TO get rid OF the
Industrial disturbances which were
being widely interpreted as handicap
ping Great Britain, and therefore
France also. and as giving Germany Il
free hand TO maintain her aggressive
policy: and to that end he was naturally
eager to persuade his labor union
friends so yield their demands and con
sent TO settlement until the govern

easements off its hands. Thus notice Is
served on possible adversaries that
