The Paris Oppositionist newspaper, “Ltberte,” publishes a statement (bat the decision to withdraw the Comte de St. Aulaire from the Ambassadorship in London was reached on the eve of the British olection, owing to Mr Ramsay Macdonald’s request, forced upon him by his own extremists, who demanded that M. Herrint should send an ambassador likely to be more accommodating on the subject uf international Socialism—hence the appointment of M. de Fleurien. The “Liberto” says it awaited the Comte de St! Aulaire’g departure from London before publishing the statement. 'Mr Macdonald, commenting on the “Liberte’s” statement, says: “It is absolutely untrue that I made any representations for the withdrawal of the Comte de St. Aulaire.”
