Rugby, Sept. 1. At the meeting of the council of. the League of Nations yesterday the British delegate, Dr. Hugh Dalton, Under-Sec-retary* for Foreign Affairs, welcomed the decision to set up a committee of inquiry on international co-operation. He intimated that the British delegation would move a motion in the Assembly dealing with international action on the coal question. An interview on this subject witli Dr? Dalton is published in the New Leader. In it he emphasises the need for securing international regulations of the coal industry. He adds: “In order to buttress securely the standards of wages and xhours in this country we need international conventions regulating these matters in all the important coal producing communities ofthe world. Such international conventions are not a substitute for Labour’s policy of nationalisation at home, but an essential supplement to it.”
