NAVAL LIMITATION.

GENERAL DAWES AGAIN VISITS MR. MACDONALD. CONVERSATIONS TO CONTINUE. NO DISCLOSURES MEANTIME. United Press Association. —By Electric Telegranh.—Couyright. LONDON, August 19. A further talk on naval disarmament and on Anglo-American relations took place to-day between Mr Ramsay MacDonald and General Dawes, the American Ambassador, at Lossiemouth, in Scotland, where Mr. MacDonald is holidaying. Mr. MacDonald met General Dawee at Elgin Station upon the American Ambassador’s arrival from. London, and the two drove to Mr MacDonald’s home at Lossiemouth, where they had a long conversation during the afternoon. This evening General Dawes left by motor car for Blair Athol, where he intends to make a short stay. Ho will return on Friday to Elgin to be present when Mr. MacDonald receives the freedom of that city. Presumably, the conversations will then be continued. It was emphasised in official circles to-day that the whole essence of the conversations is that they are confidential.—(British Official Wireless.) MILESTONE OF PROGRESS. LONDON, August 10. The conversations of Mr MacDonald and General Dawes represent another milestone in the progress of naval disarmament. Though they are strictly confidential, the “Daily Herald” learns that considerable ground has already been covered preparatory to Mr MacDonald’s visit to confer with President Hoover in October.—(Australian Press Association.)
