Sot,—Your readers must be very grateful to you for the
fine lead you have-given them in your two leaders on the Russo-Polish dispute. You have strengthened our self-respect, which has been badly shaken by the attitude of our Press as a whole.
Professor Brogan's article, "America,. Russia and Poland," sets out in forthright language an aspect of the dispute which has come between at least one other of your readers and his food and sleep during the past week, and doubtless has troubled the minds of many others. It is just possible, however, that when the American Isolationists have time to consider the width of the Bering Strait they may realise the advantage of maintaining the closest possible relations with friendly European nations, including ourselves. Whatever lesson they may draw from this " miserable business " (to use your words), there is no doubt what -the lesson is to us. It is that we, individually and as a nation, must by every means that lie in our power deepen and strengthen our friendihip
with the American people.—Yours faithfully, H. G. LYALI.. The Hazels, Mount Pleasant Lane, Bricket Wood, via. Watford, Hens.
