LONDON.-Socialists have watched
with real sense of dismay and frus-
tration the policy of the British Foreign
Office in Spain. They have seen no ade-
quate reason given for an attitude
which seems to bear an increasing re-
semblance to the lamentable policy of
nonintervention pursued during the
Chamberlain period.
It is possible to defend the refusal
to withdraw the British Ambassador
from Madrid. It is more difficult to
understand the polite indifference with
which the French proposals for joint
action were received.
Now we have Sir Alexander Cado-
gan's speech, as British member of the
Security Council, on the Polish indict-
ment of the Franco regime. OF that
speech, I can only say that I find it
hard to understand how the represent
ative of a Socialist government could
ever have been instructed to make it.
On the surface, the speech looked like
an objective assessment of evidence in
the possession of the British Foreign
Office But it must be read first in the
background of the fact that Sir Victor
Mallet, the British Ambassador to Ma
drid, belongs to the old and obsolete
tradition in diplomacy, and that means
that he is not anxious for the difficult
ties and the confusion which would
follow the overthrow of Franco.
Sir Alexander may be formally right
in saying that Franco has no aggressive
intention today; the most important
thing. with which he did not deal, is
that Frances Spain is a most impor-
tant base for the renewal of Fascist
activity. That official and semiofficial
German assets" have been handed over
to the Allied commission means nothing
at all until we know what is really COW
cred by this phrase.
The very fact that Sir Alexander
thought Franco should be forgiven for
his support of Naziism, partly because
he was convinced that Hitler was going
to win and partly because he was not
alone in that support, is an outrageous
argument for the representative of a
Socialist government to make.
Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin has
said that the Franco regime was 'de-
testable." The inference Sir Alexander
seems to draw is that verbal condemna-
ton is enough. But it is not enough. 1t
is not helpful to France to have a
Fascist power on its frontier 1t is not
helpful either that scores of thousands
of Frances victims scattered over Eu-
rope and America have no hope of
justice or equal treatment while Franco
remainS.

Lord 1nverchapel of Loeh Eek, who is
due to arrive in Washington next week
to continue the work of the well-liked
Lord Halifax as British Ambassador,
has been described as "a brilliant and
unconventional diplomat" the British
trouble shooter" and lone of the out
standing men in the British Foreign
Office
Most people will recognize him more
quickly under the name of Sir Archibald
Kerr Clark Kerr (the Kerr is pro-
nounced Karr) and will recall his
services as Ambassador to China and to
the Soviet Union. Last January he was
made baron of the United Kingdom in
recognition of his work in Moscow, and
the title he picked, Inverchapel, is the
name of the family home at the foot of
Loeb Eek.
When he left China an official Chinese
statement praised his "amiability,
progressive spirit and broad under
standing of the Chinese people"
Henry r. Luce, publisher of Time and
Life, went further. He visited China in
May, 1941, and on his return to New
York wrote an account of the trip
which was published in Life, illustrated
with photographs by his wife, Clare
Boothe Luce. Mr.. Luce wrote:
"Sir Archibald Clark Kerr is, as
every one knows, not only the most
charming white man in China but also,
in the opinion of many, the ablest diplo-
mat. An aristocratic Scotsman, he is a
power for liberalism. The house he &C
cupies lin Chungking), resembling a
large pergolaed teahouse, was built by
admirers for the Chang Kai-sheks, but
they rent it to Sir Archibald, the rent
going 10 the war orphans. Sir Archie
showed me where two or three bombs
had dropped around his pergola and
where the plaster had fallen. . ="
Served Here Earlier.
Henry C. Cassidy of the Associated
Press, in his book, Moscow Dateline,"
gives another picture of Lord Inver-
chapel, this time in Moscow
Most enjoyable Of the evenings were
those we spent with British Ambassador
Clark Kerr at an impromptu supper
present were correspondents. :" ;" We
made return engagement at my place.
The Ambassador, no mean man with a
typewriter himself, and possessor of
enormous experience, vitality and in
terest, talked chin to chin with us about
our eternal subjects, shop and politics.
The supper club became a fixture"
Lord Inverchapel has served in Wash
ington before. Early in his career he
was third secretary of the British En-
bassy here and lived in house in
Georgetown with two other secretaries.
He is 81. He was born on March II,
1882, the fifth son of John Kerr Clark
of Crossbasket, Hamilton, Lanarkshire.
He was educated privately and entered
the Foreign Office in 1906. His first
assignment was to a minor job in
Berlin but within two years he was
third secretary.
There followed other assignments, in
Guiding the one to Washington, and
soon after the start of the World War
he was sent to Teheran The British
were strengthening their diplomatic
forces in the uneasy Middle East. Sir
Archibald spent two years in Iran and
was then recalled to the Foreign Office
in London. Against the insistence his
services were needed there he pleaded
that he be allowed to- join the army
He won and served as private in the
Scots Guard

ceeded, Is indicated by the statement
made % his departure. And the fact
the Chang Kai-sheks rented him
house that had been built for them
demonstrated their friendship, friend
ship which is said not to have begun
auspiciously.
In Russia he succeeded Sir Stafford
Cripps in February, 1942. No British
Ambassador is said to have had as
many conversations with Premier Sta
lin as Sir Archibald. Initially they found
a mutual interest, because both are
pipe smokers. On their meeting-one
account put it in Premier Stalin's quar-
ters in the Kremlin, another in an air.
raid shelter-they discussed each others
pipes, both inexpensive, and the Premier
later sent Sir Archibald a pouch of
Russian tobacco.
At All Vital Parleys.
There were all sorts of problems for
the British Ambassador in Moscow to
handle. There was the meeting in
August, 1912, of Premier Stain and
Prime Minister Churchill, two dorni-
nant, determined personalities. The
state dinner in the Catherine Hail
of the Great Palace in the Kremlin,
which Mr.. Churchill attended in his
zippered AFRAID suit, touched off re-
verberations which still echo.
There was not vital conference dur
ing the war that Sir Archibald did not
attend. He was at the Moscow con-
ference which brought together Cordell
Hull, Anthony Eden and Foreign Com
missar Molotov. He was member of
the British delegation at Teheran and
Yalta. He was at the San Francisco
Conference of the United Nations and
at the Potsdam Conference.
Last January he was dispatched
to the Netherlands East Indies on a
troubleshooting job, to get Britain out
of the mess in which circumstances had
placed her there.
That mission produced an unfortunate
incident. Sir Archibald now Lord Inver-
chapel, was quoted by news agencies as
making a personal observation that In
donesia was likely to go under United
Nations trusteeship after the current
difficulties were settled. The next day
he explained he had misunderstood the
question put to him because of the
acoustic conditions of the room in which
the press conference had been held, and
that he was quoted enormously.
Receives Many Honors.
But such misunderstanding are far
from typical in career which has
brought Lord Inverchapel many honors.
He was knighted in 1885 and in the New
Year honor list of 1912 he was made
a Knight Grand Cross of St. Michael
and st. George. In 1914 he was made
a privy councillor and his barony is his
latest reward.
With all his honors he is described
as friendly man, who likes to wear
tweecs and who likes gardening, reading
and his pipes. He does not play bridge
and is quoted as saying it is the world S
worst way of wasting time" He dislikes
eating in large gatherings and seldom
entertains.
An official picture shows him in a
shirt with soft collar and a loosely
knotted tie and smoking a pipe His
features are bold and firm and his eyes
are wide apart under high forehead.
One of the stories from Moscow de-
scribed Lord Inverchapel, "one of Great
Britain's best diplomats" as shirtless
and in shorts, spading the garden be-
hind the Embassy.
