TheNew Europe. Vol. IV. (Constable and Co. 10s. 6d. net.)—This

excellent weekly review completed its fourth quarter on October 1 1 On, and the thirteen issues may now be had bound in cloth for reference. While we cannot approve of tine lengths to which some of the writers go in advocating the special claims of Balkan peoples, or in con- demning our own diplomacy, the journal is on the whole very sane as well as stimulating and informative. It is of great importance that the British public should know how our Allies, and especially the smaller nations, view the developments of our policy, and on these matters, as well as on the enemy's peace intrigues, The New Europe throws much nen- light every week.
