LONDON. July 3.-"I welcome whole

festo calling upon the workers of other
belligerent countries to use their en-
deavors for peace" declared Ramsey
Macdonald. noted English labor leader.
in an interview with the United Press
today.
1T Is only the beginning. and must
be regarded as such. regret that 1t
deals so much. with the past because We
are not in a temper to discuss that
just yet.
AT the same time. think II is the
duty of the working classes of other
belligerent countries to respond to this
manifesto and state on what conditions
they are prepared to support a peace
propaganda"
Macdonald Is the leader Of the In
socialist wing OF the British labor
movement
People Of Great Britain entered this

secure conditions under which that
could be done said Macdonald They
responded to the call Of Belgium. and
while so doing, made up their minds
that this would be the last of the great
European wars.

They are now told that they should
decide to listen to no peace talk until
Belgium has been further devastated
by being fought over right up to the
utmost border and until Germany Is
brought to her knees.
IF these things were necessary to Sc
cure the ends for which our people, at
any rate entered the war, / would say
nothing against them, however horrible
they might be. But II we are still try
ing to reach our original goal and have
not been turned aside by the impulses
Of mere militarism. | think II Is GU
duty, as well as to our interest, to nc
ccpt what we desire. provided we can
really get II, al whatever stage of the
military operations IL may be.
Military operations are not ends in
themselves, but at best only the means
TO an end. Indeed. l hodl that after
we want by negotiation. every life sac
rifced is criminal waste.
Welcome First Step.
conversely it Is no use talking
about stopping the war until we can
reach our goal. The problem there
fore Is how the people Of the various
countries can get in touch with each
other how they can make known
from that knowledge and UNDER
standing they can come to settle
rlents which will secure them against
domestic militarisrn and foreign at

1T Is as n first and essential step
