REDMOND USED AS BASE 12 1 i 1C LI V E R svnu fCopyright bv the Nw Tork World. Pub lished by arrangement.) LONDON. Sept. 5. (Special Cable.) rrmier Lloyd George is trying to stem the current of French indignation over Britain's alleged underhand grabbing policy in P ria, which is growing dally in volume and fierceness. Tertinax. of the Echo de Taris. is leadinsr the on.et with characteristic pimsency. and his satire on this topi is not so keenly admired here as it was when applied to the it points during the peace conference. The Daily News editorially puts the case plainly, ad mitting what l. happening as creating a possibility of serious friction between Britain and France, and adds -that France is laboring under a sense of grievances which cannot be dismissed as entirely unjust. Sa t Is f net ion Fonnd In East. -For the 1316 secret agreement, there Is nothing to be said.

"We have declared a protectorate over Egypt, and succeeded In warding eff all suggestions of our becoming mandatories Instead of suzerains of that country. We have established our selves behind the back of the league of nations in a position of exclusive privi lege in Persia. We have taken credit for and are reaping the advantage of the creation of the kingdom of liedjaz. and allowed Kmil Feistil to be walked to I'arls by a British officer with max imum political indiscretion. Meoatamiaa Oil Desired. Jn view of the traditional interest of France in Syria, it is not astonish ing that our reluctance to recognize her claim of the Syrian mandate provoked some warmth. When the Mesopotamia campaign started, it was severely de nounced by military strategists here as a ci imlnal squandering of men and ma terial: but the British foreign office knew better, and in addition to the agricultural wealth of the richest till age land in the world, British blood was ched in Mesopotamia to obtain the sec ond most valuable oil field yet discov ered anywhere. "Whe i British trade experts assured the public, the other day. that America would be coming to Britain for oil be fore many years, he was thinking of this acquisition, as well as supplies un der British control, r ranee cannot con ceal her envy of Britain's eastern gains compared with her own. which makes her press the Syrian claim with deter mined vehemence.
