For the time being it is 'under- stood to be Premier MacDonald's intention to give Arthur Pon- sonby, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, broader powers and responsibilities in the Foreign Office until Mr. MacDonald finds a suitable man for the post. The Premier is said to have, the utmost confidence in Mr. Pon- sonby, who has had much ex- perience in the diplomatic service and in Parliament.
One of the reasons why Mac- Donald's, political opponents have not pressed him severely on ques- tions of foreign affairs is because the experienced "leaders know heavy burdens the Premier is trying to carry. They know that British tradition and experience have shown that one man cannot handle both offices, but they are willing to let the enthusiasm and Mossrs.
