RESULTS OF MACDONALD VISIT TO PARIS

London, To-day.

| REUTER UNDERSTANDS it is intended to establish definite machinery in London and Paris for permanent Anglo- French colonial co-operation, which will enable regu- lar communication to be maintained between experts of the two governments on different questions concern- ing them. This development follows the week-end visit to Paris of Mr. Malcolm Macdonald, the Colonies Secretary, to see M.. George Mandel, his opposite number, to perfect colla- boration between the British and French Colonial Em- pires within the framework of the general agreement last November:

A liaison officer will be appointed in COMMUNIST

the Colonial Office for this purpose.

The system will be extended to the TRIAL

colonies themselves and conferences between French and British Governors on common problems are envisaged.

It is hoped other colonial powers like the Dutch and Belglans may in due time collaborate with the Bri- tlah and French Governments. An example of Franco-British col- laboration is the proposal to send a joint expedition to Indo-China to dis- cover a wild banana, immune to banana disease, so it can be planted in the West Indies, where the present varieties are affected.
