(United Press Association. —By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.)
(Deceived this day at 8.30. a.m.) LONDON, April 20.
Air Philip Snowden, Labour ALP., speaking at Afaidstone, said: “I heir Wednesday night’s stunt in the House of Commons gave little satisfaction to the Tories. The war debt settlements are not the least disgraceful incidents of the Government’s record. If the Government entered into a contract which the succeeding Government of different party would he expected to accept, then it was the first Government’s duty to consult the party which might have to adhere to this agreement! This has never been done!”
In connection with the debt settlements. Alt - Snowden said: “No Laboui Government would dream of breaking such contractual arrangements except by negotiation with the other parties concerned.”
