RAW MATERIALS
PROBLEM OF DISTRIBUTION. PROJECTED CONVENTION. (British Official Wireles..) RUGBY, April 14. Lord Plymouth, speaking in the House of Lords debate on the international distribution of raw materials, to which attention was called in the report of the Raw Materials Committee of the League of Nations, said Britain had sent a reply to the League stating that it was in general agreement with the principle formulated by the committee, with which, in fact, the British Government's policy conforms.
It would be necessary, the reply adds, to know the views of the other Governments concerned before deciding that the time is ripe for action in the matter.
“I think it is quite clear that any convention embodying principles such as these could be of no real value unless the principal Government concerned agreed to participate and give effect to these principles," Lord Plymouth said.
