IMPRESSIONS IN EUROPE. ENGLISH NOT DISLIKED LN GERMANY. (Per United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, May 8. After leaving England in March, Sir John Salmond, who arrived to-day took the opportunity of visiting toe Somme battlefields. “The battlefields,” he told a reporter, “still remain to a large extent an appalling scene of military desolation and destruction.” •■Sir John afterwards went to Germany, where he spent a few days in the neighbourhood of the Black Forest. “I was greatly struck there,” he said, “by the fact that Englishmen are apparently received by the Germans with no manifestation of ill will or distrust produced by the wan*. The impression left on my mind was that such feelings are, on the part of the Germans, ! reserved for France rather than for E!ng- : land.”
