[To THE EDITOR OP THE "SPECTATOR."] have read with great
interest your article in the Spectator a February 27th entitled "Our Foreign Policy." I agree with every word you say. Is, however, the matter to end with your article ? Is there no way of bringing these views to the attention of the Government ? It seems to me that not a moment should be lost in attempting to obtain the
co-operation of France in maintaining peace, and offering her a quid pro quo for the Russian Alliance. By the way, I notice that you make no mention of the United States. If France and Germany should unite to prevent Japan from reaping the fruits of her victory over Russia (assuming that she gains that victory), do you not think that the States would range themselves alongside England to stop any such unfair interference P—I am, Sir, &c., C.

[That America would be opposed to an anti-British coalition of Germany, France, and Russia we do not doubt, but unfortunately America's available naval force is not at present great enough to enable her to compel attention to her wishes. Yet, no doubt, the policy of such a coalition would be, after finishing with Britain, to turn its attention to America.—En. Spectator.]
