May Not Return
MR. RAMSAY MACDONALD PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE .By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright# Received June 29, 10.20 p.m. LONDON, June 29. The Morning Post says that there is a widespread belief in political circles that Mr. Ramsay MacDonald may not desire to return to office after his holiday ,even though his eyesight may be restored. The policy of strengthening defences on which Cabinet decided will be rapidly put into operation during the coming montas, and u; is doubted whether Mr. MacDonald will wish to be the head of a Government of rearmament. The weight of Conservative opinion would favour Mr. Baldwin as his successor, but it nu.glit be desirable, in order to preserve the National character of the Government, again to choose a Prime Minister from a minority party, in waich. case Sir John Simon might posgioly be considered, though his record docs not recommend him to the Conservatives.
