MAINTENANCE OF PEACE
POOLING OF ARMED FORCES ONLY SOLUTION TO PROBLEM RUGBY, Jan. 3. Europe’s armed forces should be . pooled after the war in order to ensure ... peace, said Sir Walter Layton, addressing the Geographical Association conference in Lond9n to-day. Most of the people of Europe believed that their future depended upon the pres- ; ervation of the alliance betwen Britain and Russia, who had to build up a mutual confidence and find a way of formulating a common policy in spite of difference in tradition, immediate interests, and economic organisation. “The forces would be under whatever European authority is set up, with - t a charter of personal rights for all ", Europeans,” he went on. “A 5 or 10-year plan for the economic development and prosperity of Europe should be devised. There is no other solution to the problem of Germany except to keep her in permanent subjection, and that is neither practicable, nor is it a solution which will commend itself to the civilised world.”
