I am sorry to hear that serious friction is again manifest all over East Europe, and especially in Roumania, resulting in pogroms against the native Jews there, the “Saturday Review” writes in an editorial in the current issue published to-day.

This disease, it says, is one that often spreads, and high authority is frankly apprehensive at the possibility of similar troubles in Germany, should her crisis in industry result in financial chaos this month. Lord Reading, it declares, may be relied on to bear this thought in mind in his Paris talks.

Lord Reading, the Foreign Secretary, is likely to go to Geneva early next week to take part in the discussions of the League of Nations Council upon the Manchurian dispute, it is stated to-day. In official circles in London a very serious view is taken of the trouble, it is explained, and Lord Reading feels that it is advisable for him to give his personal attention. The Council will probably assemble on Tuesday or Wednesday.
