AMBASSADOR TO AMERICA
SIR AUCKLAND GEDDES TALKS. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copvricht. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. NEW YORK, April 10. (Received April 12. at 8.50 a.m.) The ' New York American's' London correspondent interviewed Sir Auckland Geddes, who said : "The essential condition for peace is that the two English-speaking communities should continue their mutual respect and j understanding. There is nothing'l regret j more than to read vilifications of England ! in the American papers or vice versa, j Universal experience shows that there is | nothing more annoying than a criticue I which ignores vital modifying factors. J IJ venture to,say that no American can ap-j preciate all the legitimate considerations ' which helj> to mould every decision taken br j. Downing Street, and* no Briton can claim even to have an inkling of the anxiety which moulds the decisions of Washington. It is difficult for the British Empire to understand the American Re- i public or the American Republic the Bri-1 tish Empire." j
