SIGNS OF ANXIETY
Peace In Balkans Not
Secure RUMOURS CURRENT (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, May 3. The diplomatic correspondent of “The Times” says: “There is nothing to suggest that the situation in south-east Europe, where there have been some signs of anxiety lately, has become more acute. Nevertheless, rumours have been current which, if true, would indicate that peace in the Balkans is not as secure as might be wished. “.Mr. Chamberlain informed the House of Commons recently of the conclusions reached after the visit to London of British representatives in the Balkan and Danubian countries. It would be wise for all concerned to take to heart this clear statement of the policy which Hie Government is resolved to follow. “It is greatly rt-o be hoped, therefore, that the signs and .symptoms which have given rise to these disturbing reports will soon cease, for it would be the height of rashness to assume that an act of aggression against any one of the Balkan States would not rapidly lead to a wide extension of the war, with incalculable consequences to those concerned."
