UPSURGE OF BRITISH CONFIDENCE
New York, Dec. 22
An extraordinary upsurge of British confidence is noted by William Stoneman, special correspondent of the “Chicago Daily News” who has returned to London after two months’ holiday in the United States.
Stoneman adds that when he left London in the middle of October, debris of buildings was dumped everywhere and people were redeyed and strained from lack of sleep. “Now all debris has been cleared, traffic is normal and the population has recovered its physical and mental energy to an extent seemingly impossible two months ago,” he writes. “One concealed, hut genuine source of disappointment has been
the failure of American aid to come more rapidly after the Presidential election. “It is felt the war can only be won with the 100 per cent, co-operation of the United States.’’
