London, Sept. 1S.-"Lord Grey's s
Task" is the title of the following
striking article in the Daily News by
A. G.. G. GA. G. Gardiner, who recent
ly resigned as editor of the Daily
News):
This week Viscount Grey sails for
America, There has been no more
momentous journey across the Attain
tic in this or any other time. 1t is
hardly too much to say that upon its
success or. failure hang the destinles
of two hemispheres.
"ln saying this it is not suggested
that Lord Grey is a miracle worker,
or that it is in his power by the
magic of his personality TO resolve
the disoord of this distracted earth.
But If one may redeem the catastro-
phe of Paris it is he.
In Lord Grey we are sending to
America the best mind of the nation
mot a cunning mind nor a clever
mind, but mind noble in thought,
disinterested in purpose, spacious of
vision, moved as only great souls can
be moved by the single idea of rescu-
ing the world from the pit into which
II has fallen. And it is to America that
we need most to send such a messen
ger, such a witness of our good will,
such an assurance of our good faith.
Anglo-Saxon Alliance Praised.
"In the general chaos of affairs
there is still one hope of world re-
construction. 1t is in the British peo-
pie and the American people work
ing together Loyalty for a common
policy of appeasement, When the
war ended, that hope was high, but
the golden moment was lost. Six pre-
cious weeks were wasted on Hang
the Kaiser election in this country,
an election in which the public mind
of the nation, instead of being moved
to grand issues. was saturated with
the basest appeals Sf revenge and ig
norance. We emerged from that sat
urnalia to the discussion of peace with
the atmosphere poisoned by false is
sues and shameful commitments.
we have never recovered from that
indelible crime. 1t involved us in
French peace of revenge instead of
an American peace of healing, and it's
fruits are scattered over Europe in
famine, disease, revolution war and
