WORLD AFFAIRS.
FOREIGN MINISTER’S SURVEY. BRITAIN *8 INTENTION. (Received Wednesday, 7 p.m.) GENEVA, March. 9. Sir Austen Chamberlain, in conference with the International Press, said that each time Foreign Ministries found themselves at Geneva, it was thought they were intending to inaugurate a new policy. This was certainly not Britain's intention, which was confined to maintaining peace -and dissipating mistrust created by the war. Questioned as to the relations between Britain and the Soviet, he replied that they were very bad. Britain was tolerating the present position because she did not wish to trouble general world peace. He strongly denied that Britain ever attempted to organise an anti-Soviet League. Regarding China, he repeated that Britain understands her national aspirations, but must wait until there is a Government represents ing the whole of the country. He adds ed that nobody felt that intervention by the League of Nations would aervq any useful purpose,—(A, and N.Z.)
