THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Tin: Ei:nor kan Skttlk.mknt,
The agreement reached in the J.ondon eonfeicnce does not dispose of all the difficulties !*etwcen the Allies and Germany of course, but it marks a very definite and important stop towaids a settlement in western Europe. The conference, with the German delegate.-; in attendance, was tally the hist stage of a long and intricate series of negotiations of which only the barest hints have been made public, apart, that is. from the formal documents and invitations. If we could get behind the published facts in regard to the folitical situation in Great Britain after the last elections, we should probably find that the agreement to leave the Labour Party in office arose directly out of the European situation. There wa< no positive'fact ill the domestic position to warrant such a development, and the inference is that both the old parties were willing to allow a new mind to act in foreign politics. Liberals and Conservatives alike were committed dee] Iv with France, and the only prospect of a solution of the great problem lay in the intervention of a new group, unfettered by tradition or pledge.—Lyttelton Times.
