VOL. LIL—NO. 129 NORWICH, ROOSEVELT TAKES BRITAIN TO TASK| Cevled Talks with a Frankness that Caused a Stir in the Audience at Ancient Guildhall ATTITUDE TOWARD England Must Repair the Errors She Has Made, if She Wished to Do Her Full the Desire to Establish Should Get Cut—*“A Do ¢he London Telegraph— EGYPT ARRAIGNED Duty—If England Has Not Order in Egypt then She se of Eitter Medicine,” Says Foreign Comment. London, May 31.—Quite unexpected- Iy today Theodore Roosevelt deliv- ered what is considered by English- amen as a severe arraignment of the mation in its attitude towards Egypt Eomething picturesque was Jooked for from the former president of the Unit- ed States, but in_view of his utter: ances in Egypt, in which he gave praise in full measure to the British Eovernment for the development that Toliowed British rule there, it was mot enticipated that he would revert again %o thet subject, especiaHy for the pur- wose of taking England to task. British Government Has Erred. But with a frankness that caused a tir_among those who had gathered n the ancient Guildhall to witness the ceremony of conferring upon him the reedom of the city of London, Mr. E{wnst‘\v 1t declared that while England :ad given Egypt the best government it had had 000 vears, vet recent pvent the assassination of Prer Pasha, had shown that in certain vital points the British government had erred. and that Eng- §and must repair this error, if she Wished to do her full duty. *You Have or Have Not the Right to Remain in Egypt.” He called attention to the fact that ¥ngland's primary object in taking bold in Egypt was the establishment of order. her you have or vou have not the right to remain in Egypt and estabiish and keep order. If vou have rot the right and have not the desire to keep order, then, by all means, get wut. But if. as I hops, vou feel that pour duty fe ecivilized mankind and TR A ions alike bid you to stay, then make fact and the name agree and that vou are ready to meet in deed the responsibility which is e Ehow Eers Bour people treat assassina- rherstone of self-govern- forfeit all rights to be treat- "if-government. Some »vern Egypt and T hope hat the English nation Sentimentality a Broken Reed on Which to Lean. Mr. Roosevelt dwelt upon the baleful influence of the nationalist party in Egypt, which had shown in connec- tion with the murder of the premier that it was neither desirous nor capa- ble of guaranteeing justice. Nor had England shown enough of its strength. “You have tried to do too much,” he said, “in the interests of the Egyp- tians themselves, Those who have to do with uncivilized peoples, especially fanatical peoples, must realize that it such a situation’ as that which faces vou in Egypt, weakness, timidity and sentimentality must cause infinitely more harm than violence and injus- tice. Sentimentality is the most brok- en reed on which righteousness can dean. With reference to the Sudan, Mr. Roosevelt said he felt as he did about the Panama canal. Although it might not pay, it was Great Britain's duty to stay there. In his opinion the Su- dan would pay anyway. It was not worth while to belong to a big nation unless that nation was ready to shoul- der a big task. Comment of London Papers on Speech. London, June 1.—The London morn- ing newspapers editorially treat Col- onel Roosevelt’s speech without resent- ment and meet his candid advice in rather a bantering spirit, as coming from a privileged person. The'radica] Chronicle takes its a compliment to Anglo-American soli- darity, but doubts whether it would be wise for a British ex-premier to imitate the performance in New York or Washington. The conservative papers are inclined to welcome the advice. The Standard says: “The speech was more piquant than polite. It is put crudely. but may do us good.” The Telegraph thanks the colonel for his “bitter medicine,” but believes that the British people are sensible enough to swallow the dose. The Daily News alone seriously takes Mr. Roosevelt to task for “a breach of international manners.” the the duty is theirs.” RELEASE FROM MARRIAGE REFUSED JULIA EARLE Artist Earle, Originator of the Affinity Doctrine.
