 He was followed by Lord Robert Cecil. who appealed to the ministers to frame their policy and model their language to avoid any cooling of the sentiments between France and Eng land
 John R. Clynes, chairman of the parliamentary Labor party, and for mr Premier AsQuith, spoke favorably of the moderation of Lloyd Georges pronouncement. Asquith said he thought most reasonable and prac- tical issue from the difficulty had been found
