But it is said, the trade and financial policy of a Labour Government will make co-operation with America impossible, and we are sometimes even told by a kind of Fascistic caterie which occasion- which Mr. Ramsay MacDonald has specially shows itself here that America would ally written for the Sunday Times out impose a blockade on foodstuffs upon us lining the objectives of Labour's foreign by reason of some Bolshevist action which policy.

POLICY OF WORLD PACIFICATION. A Labour Government would regard any aloofness on the part of America as a valamity; hut it would go further than that. It considers its own world policy of pacification and reconstruction, of democratic development and, freedom, as so essentially akin to the spirit and purposes of America, that America would ind it hard to withhold what help it could give to us in our work.
Therefore, I answer the first question put to me by saying that the advent of A Labour Government ought greatly to improve the chances of America and var- relves co-operating (certainly not aloue, for that does not enter into my mind) to increase the amount of peace, liberty, and justice in the political affairs of the world, and should that expectation be unfulfilled it would be the failure of one of the most cherished dreams of the Labour Party.

We know America's difficulties: we respect America's suspicions. The Ameri end people are drawn from many diverse sources. They have crossed the Atlantic with many bitter memories in their Thearts Their thoughts of Europe and of ourselves have been anything. but friendly, and they have no intention of allowing the mighty State. which they have done their full share in building up to become an adjunct to any European Power, or to get mixed up in the diplo matic confusions and nationalist ambis, etc., slac Cargo es 9.5.

Should Labour come into office it will inherit a past. 1 will not begin its work with the vanity of a child thinking it en begin all things from the begin- All impressions given to the ning again. contrary are but the partisan expedients devised by political opponents to stam - pede electors by fear. We shall take the world as we find it, and, in relation to what we consider its future ought to be, we shall devise our policy. America's remoteness in space has made it an on- looker, and it has been anything but edified by what it has beheld. The ideas of democratic enntral and democratie aims to which the Labour Party has held steadfastly. and upon which it, has built up wbat success it has won, enables it to see more plainly than other parties the American point of view, and, whilst liv ing in the entanglements, it has been able to draw itself apart from them, see them with an American objectiveness, and propose remedies with the clearance of vision and freedom of a spectator. Thus it comes about that Eabour Government performing its task of dis- entangling the confusion of European politics to-day could not help receiving the sympathetic attention of the
Ameri
n people.
To think of an American alliance is both stupid and dangerous; to dream of American goodwill and help is natural for any Government honestly and die interestedly pursuing a policy which the best elements in America, East and West, must regard as good. That is the conviction of British Labour."
TO DISESTABLISH MILITARISM.
The main objective of a Labour Gov- crament would be to disestablish mili tarian, not merely as an organisation, but as a trust, and to put an organisa tion of law, of conciliation, and of equity in its place. It would also disestablish the old methods of diplomacy, which on principle withhell information from the masses of the people, neted for them, and committed them without consulting them. "Diplomacy as we have known it. has had a pronounced smack of the primitive man, about it; it has been s Burvival in our Constitution as our airo- phied eyelids have been a survival in our hodies; it has been out of touch with

bar to the co-operation of democracies for peaceful and human ends.
America has always been willing to help Europe and to take its part in the general human progress. It has only asked for a guarantee that its help is to be effective, is not merely to aid Euro, pen nations out of one mess so that they might prance into another; is not to mix un America in trouble rather than get other people out of it. The policy of a Lahour Government will remove the hindrances to the co-operation of America end in so far as solving the large moral political problems of the world will he made onay.
