The article focuses on various political issues. Washington correspondents, it is well known, are the summit and pride of American newspaperdom. A cat may look at a king--but a journalist dassent quote him. Wickham Steed, editor of the London Times, came to New York with Lord Northeliffe, and, chatting amiably with a reporter for the New York Times, told how in his opinion King George was personally responsible for about all the decent acts, particularly toward the Irish, for which Lloyd George was getting the credit. One more in the endless series of compromises between France and England is announced, and once more the papers announce that the crisis is past and that the two cabinets are again in perfect harmony.
