Ills wcil-known svmpathies with
the entente allies lend interest 10 his
exposition OF Hollands political and
economic position and OF questions
pending with the United States and
Britain. He contended that the recent
policy Of these two powers was a bad
one. because. he said. it made the Meth
crlands dependent on Germany. with
the result that she Inevitably had to
make all sorts Of concessions to that
country. He thought 1t had I most
unfortunate effect on the nations sym-
pathes.
At the outset of the war these were,
for the larger part. on the side of tho
allies, but pro-allied feeling had since
largely declined as result OF allied
measures. he said. II referendum
on the subject could be taken to-day
he thought It would show a pretty
equal division OF sympathies between
the entente and the central powers.
