THE INTERNATIONAL MIND
A WARNING TO FRANCE PROFESSOR GILBERT MURRAY'S VIEWS Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, December 29. (Received December 30, at 12.30 p.m.) Discussing the implications of modern internationalism, Professor Gilbert Murray, addressing an Anglo-French Conference on tariffs and disarmament, said some plain words to France. After emphasising that modern capitals were destructible, even by commercial aircraft, but not aerially defensible, he declared that France had not learned the lesson of the modern economic bond nor the impossibility of national isolation. “ In this she can learn from us, after which England and France can teach America. The Paris Pact implies that we must build international relations on a new basis. The existence of a society of nations and a new system of economic life demands international disarmament. If the great nations genuinely insist on peace, peace will be assured. No war-maker can stand against the will of the League Council plus America.”
