falling for a considerable time.
The d.clire was due to the fail
ure of Moscow to bring success
to the republicans in Spain. The
impression ■ in this country more
and more is that General Fran
cisco Franco is winning the war.
Inevitably Russia, as the avowed
supporter of the republicans, be
comes suspect of being responsi
ble for their failure.
Concern Over France, Too
But it must be said also that
the people in Great Britain are
becoming alarmed by the grow
th of Communist intervention in
the internal life of France. It is
all very well, they say, to rope
in the Communist party and to
oblige it to share in the work of
Parliament. But, in the long run,
the price paid for cooperation
may be too heavy, if the presen
ce of the Communists in the ranks
of the ruling Popular Front pre
vents moderate element from put
ting an end to the social troubles.
No doubt Great Britain is faith
ful to the Anglo-Franch entente.
That cannot prevent the British
from fearing the social unrest in
Europe, which spells weakening
to '.hat country's position in Eur
ope and ruin to her economic
structure.
Great Britain has a special
reason to be displeased with Rus
sian activities in France. Until
now little has been heard of that
displeasurj, because the British
Government in the present cir
cumstances hesitates always be
fore it takes a step that may cause
discomfort to its French friends.
The displeasure of London is a
roused by the way in which the
Russians have taken advantage
of the existence of a Popular
Front Government in Paris to sow
the seeds of discontent in Moroc
co, Tunis, and even in Algeria.
Great Britain is an imperial
power. Closely allied with France,
Great Britain is obliged to resent
any weakening in the imperial
position of her ally. Socialists in
all countries are notoriously bad
at administering colonial posses
sions. French Socialists, because
of their connection at present
with the Communists, are partic
ularly incxjmpetent to deal with
the problems of Empire.
Alliance With Nationalists
And so it has happened that in
Morocco, Algiers and Tunis, and
in Syria as well, agents of the
Communist International have
been allowed to form a working
alliance with the leaders of local
nationalist parties with the ob
ject of undermining the position
of France as the paramount pow
er.
Through its consuls and intelli
gence officers the British govern
ment is kept well informed of
the situation inside the French
Empire in North Africa. It is no
secret that Socialist and Com
munist Ministers in Paris have
gone out of their way to protect
Nationalist leaders in the French
colonies, who under preceding re
gimes were not permitted to de
velop any propaganda at all. The
result is that the prestige of the
French administration is at a low
ebb. Nationalism in the guise of
communism is raising its head all
over the place.
Mr. Eden has been for a long
time a staunch supporter of the
idea of cooperation with Russia
to resist the German mene.ee.
When Sir John Simon was at the
foreign office and had committed (
himself to visit Chancellor Ad-i
olf Hitler in Berlin, Mr. Eden, |
who then was his assistant, de
liberately planned his own visit
to Moscow as a counterblast to
the Germanophile move <>f his
chief.
Mr. Eden also always support-,
ed the Franco-Russian alliance to
an extent wheih called for com
plaints on tlie part of realistic
politicians in this country. At Gen
eva the Edan-LitvinofT combina
tion was extremely close. But it
has to be admitted that for mon
ths now, in the International
Committee for N m-Interv'. ition
in Spain, Russian diplomacy has
distinguished itself by its clum
sy and piovocative manoeuvering.
That, however, would not have
mattered if the adi given by Mos
cow to the republican cause had
been effective. It was not so. and
public opinion condemned it as
a failure.
Now comes the greater failure
over the Chinese issue. Unless
the Russians review their whole
position arid take steps quickly
to remedy its defects, the final out
come must be that in the affairs
of Europe their authority will
virtually disappear.—New York
