POLICY IN EUROPE
BRITAIN ALIGNED WITH RUSSIA. FACTOR IN WASHINGTON TALKS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, March 16. The Washington correspondent of the “New York Times” says that Mr Eden’s scheduled conference with ’M. Litvinov tomorrow will presumably provide him with the opportunity to describe his activities and impressions since his arrival, thus preventing any uncertainities arising in the minds of the Russians concerning the objects of his mission. It is realised in Washington from the statements which were made in London on the eve of Mr Eden’s departure that Britain is definitely aligned with Russia in European affairs, and is determined to abide by the spirit as well as the letter of the Twenty-year Treaty of Alliance.' The statements have given rise to conjecture among diplomatic circles in Washington that one of the primary purposes of Mr Eden’s visit was to explain this policy carefully to American officials, and, furthermore, to encourage the spirit of American acquiescence with it. The Russians, it is reported, are wholeheartedly in favour of this.
