LABOUR AND RUHR
MR. MACDONALD INTERVIEWED
FRANCE MUST STEP TOWARDS
ENGLAND.
(Received. 11th December j 9 a.m.) ;
PARIS, 10th December. Mr. Ramsay Macdonald, interviewed for the "Matin," said: "Naturally my party does not agres with France regarding the Ruhr. We have to think of our own well-being. We consider your policy dangerous to the interests of our. working class. A Labour Government would ask France to recognise that." He had always worked for the Anglo-French Entente, but he did not think that France was lending a help, ing hand. If a Labour Cabinet came into power, Britain and Franca would not find greater hostility from it than from the previous Governments. There was no question of hostility, or even of enmity, to France. It wag only a question of divergence of views and interests. If France wanted to maintain the Entente, she would have to take a step towards England.
