LORD MAYOR'S BANQUET.

INDIAN REFERENCE. -

Rugby, Nov. 10. Reviewing international affairs at the Guildhall banquet last night, the "Prime Minister inter alia referred to vast Improvement that had taken place eince the Dominion Premiers who

were

his fellow guests”-wera last In London for the Imperiali Conference 'three years ago.

France, Italy, Germany and Bri- tain were working together, for re- construction an reconciliation. The Treaty of Locarno had come into force and it was a symptom of the return to a peace mentality. Germany had become a member of the League of Nations, and France and Germany were trying to ell- minate any remaining causes of friction by a wise policy of mutual concessions, On all sides there was evidence in Európe of clearér understanding 'that it is only by co-operation and good-will that an era of peace and stability could be realised. It was to the League of Nations that the main credit for removing some of Europe's prob- lems must be given.

Reconstruction of Europe had been the keystone of Bri tain's foreign policy. and he thought they were justified in believing that British · states- manship and he wae glad in this to include the Labour Govern ment during its short term "of office had played a not Incon- siderable part in bringing these things about.

Although so far as the western hemisphere was concerned there was good reason for confidence, in Asia and Eastern Europe there had been less progress. Besides China, there was India and here he was able to speak more hopefully than had been possible for many yeare past. Referring to the In- dian elections now proceeding, he said there was a real chance that, whichever party claimed predom- inance, the policy of non-co-opera- tion would be recognised as re- actionary and sterile: If that anticipation were fulfilled, the future could be regarded with con- fidence, and all desired that the. Royal Commission, whenever it met, might find itself justified in recommending a further step on the road to self-government,

Within the British Empire abroad there was to be seen on every side a healthy expansion of industry and commerce, which had already reflected itself in, increas- ed opportunities for the Mother Country to fulfil the development which was proceeding.-British Wireless.
