ANGLO-FRENCH ACCORD
In a world which is torn with wars and threats of wars, asserts the News Chronicle, in comment on the King's recent visit to France, the AngloFrench accord stands out as a factor making for peace. Based on the twin principles o i democracy and liberty and devoid of any aggressive intention, it is a relationship which is unlikely to change. Moreover it is a neighbourly understanding which does not seek to exclude any nation of goodwill from the priceless benefits of international amity. It is a cheering thought that after centuries of bloodshed and hatred Britain and France could forget an enmity which seemed irreconcilable and become the closest of friends. Who knows what nations now at loggerheads will be exchanging olive branches in the years to come?
