MR. MacDONALD STATES NATION'S ATTITUDE

HOPES FOR NAVAL PACT

While Great Britain was striving for an agreement between naval powers which would make possible the limitation of war fleets, the country would have to take steps to secure that it was in a position to defend itself in the event of attack, declared Premier MacDonald when addressing the gathering at the Lord Mayor's! banquet at the Guildhall to-night.

"Our experience has proved that in the present state of the world's mind disarmament by example is not an effective way to reduce armaments or to increase international confidence," Mr. MacDonald said.

Roferring to the crisis in the European situation during the past: few months, Mr. MacDonald em- phasised Britain's efforts on the side of pence, and gave an assur ance that these services would con- tinue as long as the Government lasted.

Poppy Day, on behalf of Eart Haig's Fund, is being observed in most parts of the British Empire to-day. Picture shows Mr. Raminy MacDonald buying an emblem.
