! FRANCE AND THE RUHR. I I i ! LORD BIRKENHEAD'S VIEWS. j Press Association—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. U;tble Association. (Received 9.10 a.m.) New York, August 29. Lord Birkenhead, in a speech before the American Bar Association, at Minneapolis, said: "I see no use of opposing the French occupation of the Ruhr—although bittorly against such a policy —when the opposition might have influenced the French hvm taking the step. 1 still hope all the nations who saved Civilisation will one day realise that not merely the interests of Europe, but the intorests of every great country in the world required some common effort to alleviate and correct the misery under which Europe is groaning. The hope of the world to-day lies not in the gold reserve, but in orderly aud peaceful industry."
