TOPICS OF THE DAY
Relations with Russia Mr Lloyd George’s arguments are not always new, but he still uses them with unsurpassed pungency and effectiveness, says the Spectator. The main theme of a recent speech in the House of Commons was the Government’s neglect of Russia. Disarmament was the test of any arrangement that might be reached, and how, he asked, could general disarmament be achieved without the cooperation of the Soviet Government ? He urged the Prime Minister to take Parliament into his confidence and to reveal his intentions in foreign affairs. In this part of his speech the House was certainly with him. At present all parties are in. the dark. There is a general feeling of uncertainty. The future alignment of British politics will in all probability be determined by the foreign policy which Mr Chamberlain must shortly formulate.
