BRITAIN AND ARBITRATEN
■ ! ♦ ' The views of Great Britain on th 6 question of arbitration are contained ia a memorandum which has been prepared and presented to the league of Nations,'in response to, a request for information. This dpoumeht appears to be largely a restatement; of the views expressed on many occasions! by Sir Austen Chamberlain and other British statesmen. Britain apparently prefers the system of regional arbitration agreements to that of an all-inclusive pact. She is not prepared to accept the compulsory jurisdictionl of the Permanent Court of International Justice. The note mentions incidentally that a Government can only go as far as public opinion will allow it.' There is food for thought in. this admission. ,
