Miss Elleu Wilkinson, chairman of the British Labour Party, who presided at the public closing session today of the British and Dominion Labour Parties’ conference, moved the adoption of a conference manifesto calling for a new democratic world order. The manifesto states: “This wiU not come by hopes alone. It must be built through unremitting struggle and international Labour and Socialist unity. Only by an international order built for collective security and economic expansion can there be final guarantee against future wars. “We must plan for peace as we planned to win the war —with foresight and determination and without regard to. vested interests or crusted prejudices. The manifesto goes on to recommend that wartime financial controls should be maintained till more permanent arrangements are made; that the banks and other financial institutions should be servants of the community, and investment funds should be brought under national and international control with a view of ensuring full employment and higher production. “When Germany and Japan are defeated all the necessary steps must be taken to put it beyond their power aud that of their satellites to revive the attempt at domination of others by aggressive means,” it continues. A permanent court of international law should be created with an efficient international civil sc^vice. ,, Arfliming a belief in the right of India to full self-government, the manifesto expresses the hope that a free India would decide to remain a partner of the British Commonwealth The manifesto concludes: Ours is a major responsibility to ensure that the Governments pursue an international policy which will encourage the emergence and victory everywhere of/the democratic and Socialist forces,”
