IjAUSAnne conference PRIME MINISTER TO GO (Per Press Association) LONDON, May 30. The Daily Mail says that Mr. Ramsay MacDonald, in reiterating his determination to go to Lausanne, says he will go with the express intention of extending the scope of the conference in order to include the bigger problem of international trade. The country will be most grateful to the Prime Minister if he can clear away the entanglements of tariffs, surtaxes, quotas, currency, licenses and shipping restrictions which are threatening a complete stoppage of international trade.
AMERICA STANDS ALOOF WASHINGTON, May 30. Although the United States will naturally watch with interest any international discussions on trade there was no indication here on Sunday that the Government will enter such discussions in connection with the Lausanne Reparations Conference proposed by Prime Minister MacDonald. The country’s position has been that it is for Europe itself to consider reparations and there is nothing to indicate that a broadening of the Lausanne Conference as Mr. MacDonald proposed would modify the position.
