MOROCCO.
FRANCO-GERMAN AGREEMENT.
BRITAIN'S SUPPORT.
By Telegraph.—Press Association.—Copyright
London, February 10. Germany, a month ago, initiated the entente with France regarding the integrity of Morocco.
A Parisian communique, in recording that fact, acknowledges the value of Britain's steady support of the French policy, thus helping the ratification of the present agreement.
London newspapers show a consensus of opinion that Germany's adoption of a wise and moderate policy in Morocco contributes not a little to allay the suspicion which had grown up between Britain and Germany, and is calculated to draw the two countries really together. Sir Edward Grey (Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs) has informed M. Stephen Pichon (French Minister for Foreign Affairs) that Britain welcomes the agreement.
