EFFORTS FOR PEACE
APPEAL BY BRITISH LABOUR LEADER NEED OF POSITIVE POLICY. LIMITS TO THE TOLERATION OF FASCISM. By Telegraph—Press Association. Copyright. LONDON, September 1. Making Labour’s first pronouncement, on the European crisis, the leader of the party, Mr C. R. Attlee, in an article in the “Daily Herald” today, approves Sir John Simon’s speech as a warning that there is a limit to the tolerance which hitherto has been given to the Fascist Powers, and urges that it should be followed up by a positive peace policy rallying democratic and peace-loving forces throughout the world. He adds that there is abundant evidence that the peoples of Italy, Germany, and Japan resent the huge sacrifices that are being demanded of them.
“I am convinced,” said Mr Attlee, “that, if it is made plain that aggression does not pay, the peacful elements in the Fascist countries would make their influence felt, provided simultaneously the way was opened for international co-operation by a strengthened League of Nations, removing causes of friction, especially economic causes.” '
