Mr. Ramsay MacDonald interviewed by. Reuter when en route to Geneva, said the road was clearer than ever for a real dia- cussion of armamenta and national security.

It was as clear as ever that unless settlement of debts obligations be reached, there would be no loans or guarantees for Russia...

Mr. MacDonald defended the Govern- ment's rejection of a mutual guarantee pact,

which would probably havo led to the secession of certain of the British Dominions and other nations from the League, and forever have closed the door to the adherence of America and other States. Mr. MacDonald said he empha tically disfavoured using force to enforce the decisions of the League, which would only destroy its power."
