MACDONALD INTERVIEWED
NO FURTHER ELECTION
Australian Tress Association—United Service.
LONDON, Ist June. Mr. Kamsay MaeDonald, interviewed, said: "If I can prevent it there will not be any disturbance in the country by an election for two years. I am most concerned with the quiet development of industry, a peaceful mind, and confidence at Home and abroad. The Parliament shoulcl last even longer, but we are not going to submit to any unfairness or stand any monkeying. It will rest with the other parties whether there will be an early election. Any Government responsible for the na tional affairs at this time should be allowed to develop its policy. The way my foreign policy was broken'in 1924 should not recur. I was only able to start it and leave it to others to develop. They did that regarding Locarno and the admission of Germany to the League, but then dropped it. I shall exchange views with my colloagues during the week-end." Mr. Lloyd George will do liKewise. Mr. Snowden, after declaring that his most sanguine hopes had been realised, said: "This is not merely the eclipse of the Conservative Party, but probably foreshadows the eclipse of Mr. Baldwin himself as its leader."
