FRIENDLY FAREWELL
SIR ERIC PHIPPS LEAVES FRANCE INTIMATE AND CONFIDENT UNDERSTANDING. NEED OF COMMON LAW OF NATIONS. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, October 23. The retiring British Ambassador in Paris, Sir Eric Phipps, in a broadcast farewell to the French people, said:— “I have always worked for closer relationship between our two countries, and now that the hour for my departure has come it is good to know that, faced with the danger which is threatening the world, our two countries are as one and that the understanding between our Governments and our peoples is most intimate, most cordial, and most confident. “That understanding must be perpetuated beyond the common victory so that it will be possible to lay the basis of a world where the common law will be the understanding and not hate of neighbours.” Sir Eric Phipps has left for London.
