move. II We can exercise patience,
caution and self-restrant We may
yet be able TO save the peace OF
Europe"
Members listened in intent silence.
They read into his words an adj
mission that peace was gravely
threatened and that it was up TO
Great Britain, with its new s15OO,-
0O0,00O rearmament program back
ing IL up TO preserve a balance ana
prevent an explosion.
TThe most notable portion OF his
speech, perhaps, as regards events
OF the moment. was his dismissal
of the alleged Loyalist submarine
attack on the German crusier Leip-
zig with the statement that there
was a possibility that the Leipzig's
officers were mistaken in their as
sertions that torpedos were fired
on the ship.
This alleged attack remains a
mystery. Germany angrily asserts
that it occurred; the Spanish Loya-
lists offer what they call absolute
proof that no Loyalist submarine
was at sea at the time; Britain and
France have not admitted that it
took place.
Chamberlain spoke in debate
caused by an opposition amend
ment to a foreign office appropria-
ton bill.
Sir Archibald Sinclair, liberal
leader, opened the debate. To the
surprise OF the house, he made
his principal point an appeal to
the government 10 strengthen
friendship with the United States.
THE opportunity is there" he
said. Failure to grasp it would
discourage the United States and
sour public opinion. Not only the
prosperity but the peace OF Europe
hangs on the response of his majes-
ty's government to United States
oVertures."
Some emphasis was put on this
statement because of persistent re-
ports that the American govern
ment has secretly interested itself
in the present Spanish crisis, in an
effort to keep peace inviolate. These
reports have persisted despite state
department denials.
