MACDONALD'S s
PEACE PLANS
FALL FLAT

GENEVA, March II QN.S0
Despite his impassioned plea that
drastic limitation of the worlds
armies is essential to European
peace, Prime Minister j. Ramsay
MacDonald's five year disarma'
ment plan seemingly fell upon
deaf ears today.
Reports received from the vari-
Gus capitals by the press section
of the League of Nations secre-
tariat disclosed an almost univer-
sal unwillingneSs to accept Mac
Donald's proposal for total re-
duction of 100000 men in
Europe'S armies, as well as elimi-
nation of thousands of big guns,
tanks and war planes.
Offered as Compromise
In presenting the proposal, Mac
Donald offered it as a compromise
to meet an international emer-
gency. Like most compromises,
he predicted, it would please no
one, but it is doubtful whether
he anticipated such a cold recep-
ton as the plan appears to have
been granted.
AS the British premier pre-
pared to leave Geneva for Rome
for what promises to be a mo-
mentous conference with Premier
Mussolini, press comment and
Seni-official dispatches from all
over the world held out little
promise that his arms proposal
would be accepted.
Berlin disappointed"
Even Berlin was disappointed"
despite the fact that the burden
Of MacDonald's address was a
plea for German equality" Of
ficials in Berlin held that the
offer to double Germany's air
forces was offset by the plan
to eliminate her highly-trained
Reichswehr and replace it with
q militia.
Paris expressed "dismay," par
ticularly over the fact that the
plan would accord Germany
numerical military strength on
European soil equal to that of
France.
LONDON, March II (.N.S.).
Prime Minister j. Ramsay Mac
Donald informed government Of
ficials today that he will be
back in London by next Wednes-
day after his conference with
Premier Mussolini in Rome "un-
