The crushing criticism of " Too Late " must be

written over the whole of the Allies' dealings with Germany about the .war criminals. Sir Auckland Geddes in a speech on Wednesday said that Holland would be pressed to give up the Kaiser, but that if she definitely said " No," then the Allies must reply that the Kaiser could not live in Dutch territory in Europe but must be placed on some Dutch island outside Europe. The Allies, after all, -have got a very cogent argument in addressing themselves to Holland, though wo rule out physical coercion of any kind. Small neutral Powers stand to lose more than any- body else by international bad faith, and it is strictly in the cause of international good faith that the Allies want to try war criminals.
