FRIENDSHIP CONFERENCE.
BRITAIN AND GERMANY. (Received 9.40 a.m.) London, October 30. An Anglo-German Friendship Conference has opened at Guildhall, Sir Frank Lascblles and Count Yon Leyden being joint presidents. Ernest Scuster said there must be much misunderstanding in both countries, particularly in England, when men like Lord Roberts affirmed that war was inevitable. The Kaiser and the German nation abhorred the idea of war for territorial gain. The Evening Standard says Lord Roberts deserved Sir Edward Grey’s chilling rebuke, as Lord Roberts’ enthusiasm sometimes carried him beyond the bounds of prudence and good sense. His statements were harmful to the cause be had at heart, especially when prudent people were endeavouring to establish bettor relations.
