RELATIONS WITH U.S.
Sr,—Few people realise that when the United States Navy was young and small, it was the Royal Navy that backed up the Monroe Doctrine. (Walter Lippmann, “History of the Monroe Doctrine”). When a small United States fleet tried to engage the Spaniards at Manila in 1898, a German warship would have intervened but for the initiative of a British cruiser. I think it is a case of one good turn deserves another. The Prime Minister of Australia in a broadcast to the people of New Zealand a few Sundays back said that we/ were all one people, in spite of our local customs. Let us therefore sink our personal feelings and make a truly great effort to understand our Anglo-Saxon relatives in all parts of the world.—Yours, etc., ANGLO-AMERICAN. July 8, 1954.
