The Sunday Observer, Ob-server, commenting- on what it terms "a memorable mistake which jeopardizes all the beneficent possibilities of the role which might have been and may still be reserved for the American president at a later stage," holds that the entente allies, in reply to President Wilson's note, are bound to vindicate their cause before history his-tory and declares that special measures are required. "If Viscount Bryce is not available specially spe-cially to represent us in the United States," says the paper, ''why should not Lord Rosebery be asked? Would it not be possible pos-sible for these two to go together? Perhaps Per-haps the best choice would be Mr. Asquith. As-quith. If such nn appointment were.
