DR STRESEMANN FRIEND TO GREAT BRITAIN.
(United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) LONDON, May 17. Dr Stresemann’s critical illness is regarded as a serious blow, not only to British, but to international diplomacy, as on the whole it is expected that it will be several months before he resumes office. His illness has developed into a serious form of kidney disease. Dr Stresemann undoubtedly is Germany’s leading statesman to-day. Indeed, it is recognised throughout Europe that he is one of the most outstanding figures in European affairs, his knowledge of which is far above that of anyone else in German politics. Ilis friendship with Sir Austen Chamberlain, coupled with his work at Locarno, is one of the most striking features of post-war diplomacy. This is only typical of his relations with Britain throughout. Certainly Britain sees in him a real friend to the British Empire.—United Service.
