Note 315 — Chapter VI
Reading edition
On the reaction of the British people to the accord see Spender, Life, Journalism and Politics, I, 188 ff.; London Times, April 12 and 14, 1904; Spectator, quoted in Schulthess, Europäischer Geschichtskalendar 1904, p. 223. For the debates in the British Parliament see 4 Hansard, Vol. CXXXV, cols. 502 ff. Adverse opinion was expressed by Lord Rosebery, the Daily Chronicle, the Morning Post, and Mr. Aflalo who had lived in Morocco and was particularly interested in the fate of the land; but their voices were lost in the general applause (Metternich to Bülow, April 9, 1904, G.P., XX, 13 f., No. 6375).
