NEWS OF THE WEEK
LIF hope does not become the dupe of fear ,Tuesday, in this week will be held in high honour for ever. It will be regarded as the beginning of a new age of more friendly, because more rational, relations . throughout riumpe. The Treaty of Locarno has been signed with every. expression of good will and with the . obviously sincere intention to keep the peace. After all, intention is the important thing. A Treaty is _but_ a_ bundle. of :dead bones unless the spirit of life is- breathed into it by men determined to make it an instrument of benevol- jence and humanity. It is because we believe that the to peace.is at last breaking down the ancient mistrust and enmity.between France and Germany that we salute Tuesday, December 1st, as a red letter day. _ The Treaty was. signed. by the representatives- of Great Britain, 'Prance, Germany, Italy and Belgium.
