MENT,

[Press Association —Copyright.]

(Received Nov 27, 10.55 p.m.) London, Nov 27,

The newspapers of Britain, Franco, and Germany show intense interest in Sir Edward Grey's statement. Thore are many indications of radical unrest as tho result of the British foreign policy. Thti "Moi'ning Leader'1 declares that tho Anglo-French entente led to an immense revival of the revenge idea in France, and embittered her relations with Britain and Germany. Unless Sir Edward Grey can help to open a now chapter the' Radicals and Labourites will make a stand < n liehalf of peace. The "Daily News" states that Brii tain allowed a piratical invasion of Tripoli, permitted France to tear up the Algeciras agreement, and R;:ssia to overrun Persia. Parliament n.ust recover control of the Foreign Office from the possession of tho small e.'ste of the Foreign Office. A committee of members must be appointed. It would be a happy augury if Mr Br.vce was transferred to Berlin.
