AFTER COUNTING THE COST.
“The British reply to the American peace proposals is at once cordial and reflective. Great Britain—with the approval of the Dominions of the British Empire—has now accepted it, not in the sense of simply falling into line, but with the definite purpose of contributing ‘to the utmost of her power’ to the realisation of the idea within the framework of the existing political systems of the world. The aim of the British Note is clearly to advance the movement, to offer the effective co-operation that the United States has invited. The serious and reflective character of the Note adds indeH very greatly to the force of the declaration of cordial acceptance. It is after reviewing all their commitments, after, so to speak, carefully counting the costs, that the Govment declared that they will gladly co-operate in the conclusion of such a pact as is proposed and are ready to engage with the interested Governments in the negotiations which are necessary for the purposer.’ “The Times” (London).
