Accepting th tact,' and ft manifestly la a conflict fact, that the Franco-Oermon tha Ruhr, or. more exactly, th struggl tot Germany against France and Belgium, has now entered a British phase, it I eaaeatial to recall onoe more some of the elements of tbs problem. Underlying- - all else, one must perceive that the new situation is qne in which Bonar Laws sue ceaaor must necessarily strive to regain for his country that commanding position in world affairs which it enjoyed before the war and for a considerable period after the close pf the conflict and the withdrawal of the United States. Just a year ago. when the Genoa conference was still in session, there was no mistaking the fact that IJoyd George occupied a neat which hod been, vacant in all the years which had followed the passing of Bismarck. Moreover, quite naturally, since Lloyd Georgs was sasily tha dictator of his own country, British influence was on the surface, at least, supreme in the world and it had been absolutely so but a short time before. But ,f Lloyd George for a time w the most powerful man in Europe end British influence the greatest, yet there is no mistaking the fact that In the end not only did Lloyd George fall, but before he left Downing street Great Britain wee not only sadly diminished In Influence, but. In fact. Isolated: the continent had eS' raped entirely from British leading strings and not even the Washington conference had sufflred to restore the n semblance of an al BV WASHINGTON. an Anglo-America- liance. FALL OF BRIAND. Even before the Washington cohfer-ehc- e was over, the first blow had been struck. Lloyd George by the fall of Briand. While Briand remained in office it was a fair calculation that, there although might be differences between Great Britain and France, very profound differences, there would be no open break. But this association of the two men was in tho end fatal to Briand., He was driven out of office because France bad come to regard Lloyd Geotge as an enemy and to distrust the Judgment and the ability of that French premier who continued to negotiate with s. him, With the comidg'of- Poincare It woe once at that there was to be a plain duel to the death between the new French president of tha council and the British premier who had survived all the other great figures of ths war and post-wperiod. No disguise was mads by either of his personal trust and dislike of the other dls. and inaoti And Paris were amused by the "private comments of the two duellists.

EUROPE DOES NOT TRUST. That Europe trusts Poincare or French policy would be an inaccurate statement. Europe, in point yf fact, But in the present does not trust situation if it vere not for the French and army. Poland, Belgium would 41 be In imminent peril fmm Germany, while Jugoslavia and Rumania woykl have Bulgarian and Hungarian dangers, which are emphasized by recent events In And these nations do not beSofia. lieve that they could count on any British aid in case they Were attacked. Hence. In the last analysis, they have stood aott are likely.-tstand with France. Of Italv it is much harder to speak, hut the Italian do recall that tn all their difficulties in the Adriatic and with Greece In the Aegean, they never had any substantial British support, and In the case of Smyrna, which was promised them, Greek troops were set to forestall them on Lloyd Georges initiative. Mussolini came to power frankly Anjrtophobe, on the whole up to the present moment, when he has Poincares demand for German surrender he has takes a French rather than - a British view, or, perhaps more- exactly, a continental view. The one great advantage the British have lies in their financial al Oecho-Siovak- ta o They are stIU rich, and strength. this is a powerful asset. In reality, the test must come between the relative power of money on the one side and of military strength on the other. Speaking In the hmg view, too, British diplomacy for a variety of reasons has generally proven more skillful than French, although British cards have been woefully imspiayed In recent months, and French, in the Part and London conferences of December and January amazinglv well plaved. WHERE WEAKNESS LIES. For Baldwin, as for Bonar Taw, the weakness lies in the fact that both a situation already have inherited compromised; they have had as a first necessity to restore British prestige and regain confidence for British purBonar Law might have sucposes. ceeded hi past achievements at least gave promise of sucres; of Baldwin one knows loss, but he, too, comes from the world of business. But In sny event no one must mistake the- - character of ths Pew developments, aside from aU question of reparations, of all Genusm problems, a battle for the moral and rveip fof the material leadership tn Europe Is being joined and ths battle itt between France and Great Britain. Both nations are obviously fighting for material interests, both are instinctively serving ends which eorreapond with their own necessities, but, la addition, bath peoples have clearly in mind the position before th world which vicor defeat, will leave each in, tory when the present dash Is over. If Baldwin succeeds In solving ths Ruhr problem in a British fashion, he will regain for his country the fold or European TeSdefU If he fall. It wilt remain with Frstice. Between Poincare and Baldwin there Is no such personal antagonism as existed between Lloyd George and the French premier, but the two countries remain souarelv aligned fh support of opposing policies based upon conflicting Interests. Given thw existing situation it unmistakable that we are piare lUtly T MfimiSiTTS'l fal H iTI a deadlock or a compromise than a clear victory for either contestant, but it ie worth recalling that all past compromises have been in reality no more than extension of ah existing deadlock and that despite contrary statements in certain quarters. time is running with the French tn the Ruhr, and If the h deadlock continues too long, the Oer-m- n may have to surrender to the French and Belgian without regard to the British. On the other band, g1en the British state of mind, the Germans are likely to hold out ttntil thh last moment in the hope of fct-- t er terms procured through British Intervention. v The French would like mn'uncopdl-tlonalliance with the Brltiah. )ut os the Brltiah has for aeveral years Bought a similar partnership with the United States, hut Just- as then ts nothing the British ran offer us which seems to our people commensurate with the obligations and risks we would hare to assume with a foreign commitment, the British feet that a I nvol.ee V'rench alliance dangers without balancing profits. What they would desire would be to exercise a directing Influence on French poltrjr without assuming contractual obligation J But th French' are not in the least minded to accept auch a relation. Their demand la for equal or complete independence, partnership and in months they hare had csmtJete independence. Nor esn they be .retrained, as I have tried to point nut, v on term which at least seem .beyond the resources of any British prim minister to provide. England does. not. desire dominate sa a partner of France or anyf,urne other nation; ah remains faithful to her tradition of freedom of action, nay only Jn specific eases. Ilk th recent world war, where ah waa forced to take partners for the moment. AMERICAN VIEW. $ We tn America are prone to look st the Ruhr and the reparations question in the abstract, decide upon to see Anglo-Frenc- nl - Ire-re- nt some solution booed Upon th national issue purs snd simple and then examine the policies of-t- h various nations In relation to this abstract and Utopian soluitlon. Nothing of ths sort occurs In Europe. The continent looks not at th problems and their solutions In the abstract, but at th policies and purposes of the nations concerned. They see In any British solution no more than an obrtous effort of th British to serve their own Interests without regard to the rights or wishes of any other nation. They see the same thing in French. Italian or Oerman policy. Th idealism of nation doe not go beyond formulating policies advantageous to themselves and then claiming for these th high warrant of right, policies and unselfishness. Neither justice th British nor th French policy with regard to Germany Is framed with any concern for Germany. A long a Llovd George believed It wss for British Interest to make Germany pay excessively, he was even more insistent than the French on huge 'reparations sums. It was only when British opinion veered that h changed, but he claimed for hta .later policy of humanity, while for his earlier he buttressed it upon Justice. Unless Germany can be saved and restored. British Influence measurably on the continent I going to be far less considerable during the next few denude than at any time in th past century. Britain Naturally, has turned to Germany now, a she turned to Franc after It fall of Napoleon, seeking to restrain ths power nf, ront partner and retain a deciding vot in European councils. - It V5 ! th balano of that Britain Is striving now. thepower balance destroyed by the fall of Germany, tha destruction of Austria and th eclipse of Russia.
