Naval Cut FOreSepn

Geneva, Sept. P)-The trcmen- dous desire for peace shared by 95 per cent of all the peoples of the world will enable President Hoover and the British prime minister to solve the naval power problem. said Ramsay Macdonald speaking today at a luncheon given the council of the League of Nations by the Inter- national Assiciation of Journalists accredited 10 the league.
 Amid applause the British Ia bor leader said This spirit of peace will support the hands of President Hoover and myself and enable us to settle the question as statesmen"
 He added his conviction that no consideration of national interests would dominate them or cause them to risk failure.
 "Wc have our difficulties to be sure. There are things intricate in | character to be settled but the will i of the people is more powerful than | all else and in the end it must have the last word," said Macdonald.

"Thn covenant is already old" he said. "The Kellogg Briand pact en- bodies progress"
