WORLD PEACE
LATE EDITION
IMPOSSIBLE At GENEVA FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE. ANGLO-AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION —BY ELECTRIC TELEGRA PH—COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN PRESS ASSOCIATION.; Received 11.10 a.m. to-day. LONDON, May 12. Mr. Garvin, writing in the “Observer/’ after Sir Austen Chamberlain’s speech on May 10, states: ‘ ‘ There is no doubt the American plan for the outlawry of war will be carried. France and other European and Asian friends ought to realise that our continental •League policy is unconditionally subordinate to the fundamental principle of an unambiguous Anglo-American friendship. In no possible contingency could we join anyone in hostilities against the United States. The first such shot would dissolve the Empire. Mr. Kellogg’s plan is nowise inimical to the League. We look to France to secure success in a six Power Pact. Any peace system with the United States is far stronger than any other minus America. Wo can no more secure world peace at Geneva without Washington than to irrigate all the world’s deserts with a Paris pump. ’ ’
