/ The British Newspaper King, whose'attack on Mr. Baldwin is becoming sharper..

Sir John Simon, as deputy leader o; the House of Commons, will reply t questions addressed to Mr. Baldwin, notably regarding Mr. Neville Chamberlain’s sanctions speech and Mr. Duff Cooper’s remarks in Paris on Juno 24 about which the Times (Parliamentary representative says: “Tho House of Commons and tne public are becoming restive, as isolated Ministerial speeches, although not containing anything very novel or startling, give the impression that Cabinet’s policy is being revealed piecemeal, sometimes discordantly by speakers who are not directly; concerned with the topics on which they touch. This suggests a lack of coherent policy, especially on foreign affairs, or at least the non-arrangement ol promulgation through proper channels, and the imposition of reticence elsewhere.”
