"OO little noted even in Washington,
where foreign affairs command more
= attention than elsewhere in the
United States yet unmistakable in all for
eign newspapers and comment, is the recent
appeal of Lord Derby to his fellow country
men for an out and out alliance with France.
The appeal was made at the moment when
Derby ended his two years and more Of
service as British Ambassador at the French
capital, and it came at a moment when
British public opinion was Enthusiastically oc-
cupied with the question of the future rela-
tions Of the empire to the world and to the
European nations.
It is possible to exaggerate the immediate
Importance of the Derby incident, but it is
nevertheless necessary to mark at the be-
ginning of a new year the growing tendency
at least in certain quarters of the British
Isles to demand an abandonment of the
policy which has dominated British actions
for nearly a quarter of century, that is
ever since the Spanish-American War, and
found its climax at the Paris Conference.
This policy moreover, amounts to the earn
est and persistent effort to create between
the two Anglo-American nations an asso-
citation, an alliance, in reality a partnership
in all world affairs.

struggle whatever the decision reached on
the battlefield would be the ruin of one or
both countries.
Now, there was in addition to policy no.
a little genuine friendliness; not a few
Englishmen not only recognized the logic
of the situation but were much influenced
in advocating Anglo American association
by real affection and admiration for the
United States. Both forces worked, both in
fuences combined to seek the same end 1t
would be hard to say where policy ended
and friendship began, but the fact stands
forth that for twenty-five years those who
were most powerful in the politics and those
who were the most conspicuous in the public
life Of Britain labored to bring about an
Anglo American partnership which, how
ever disguised by less definite terms,
amounted in British minds to a full partner
