There were vague rumors tonight that a section of the cabinet, head- ed by Sir John slmon. Chancellor of the Exchequer. was unhappy about the decision. but there seemed to be no doubt that public opincn would welcome a tie-up with Russia in the interests of Peace.

Lord Hall ax was said to have ur-

Bed immediate acceptance or nus- sllrs terms when he reported to the Cabinet on his conferences at Paris and Geneva from which he returned this morning. It. was pointed out in political cir- cles that Mr. Chamberlain necessar- ily had to be rather indefinite in his statement, since the Government wanted to inform Moscow of its pos- ition before making it public.

The Foreign ofice said a. note would be dispatched immediately to Sir William Seeds.‘ British Ambas- sador to Moscow, for communication to the Soviet Government. The newt step would be actual drafting of the pact. which probably would be dcne in Moscow.

LONDON, May 24-—Tho Earl of Elgin, whose grandfather was Gov- ernor-General of Canada from 1847 to 1854, today bold the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Great Britain that the challenge of force and violence had brought the Em- pire together “as never before in

our day.

Lord Elgln addressed the Can- adian Chamber of Commerce after the organization had addressed a cable to the King and Queen on the occasion of Empire Day and had received a reply from Their Majestles, journeying toward Win-

neg.

Lord Elgin paid tribute to the s lrlt of the governments and ctizeris throughout. the British Commonwealth; He declared gov- ernmerrts often found it cllfllcult to work in advance of public opin- ion, but businessmen were unham- pered by such difiicultles and should search their minds to de- termine what they could do t0 help their government in the face of_di_f_licultles.

British Troops Will ‘Join FfénchArnly For War Games

(By The Associated Press) PARIS. May 24—A French news- paper reported today that British troops would join the French army this fall in annual war games which usually are held in eastern France behind the Maginot l'ne of fortifications facing Germany.

Inuls Brette, military affairs writer for the newspaper Excel- siclr. said a battalion of British guards would take Dart in the Bastllfe Day celebrations July i4 and “confingents of British troops will participate in our coming grand manoeuvres."

He said the war games. in Sep- tember, would brine a large dele- gation of British oflicers and troops.

Only authorized military infor- mation may be published in French newspapers under new regulation decreed by Premier Daladler. The War Ministry. however. refused either to deny or confirm that British troops were co to

' France. but said lt was’ familiar

with the report.

(Yn London a spokesman for the British war office said "absolutely nothing" was lmogqrl there con- cerning the report.)

British officers frequently have been privileged observers atFrench manoeuvres in the rgast, but troops of the two powers have not work- ed together slnce they were Great War allies. Then they were under the unified command of Marshal Foch whose succemor in event of another Great War is expected to be General Maurice Gusfilve {ram- elin, chief of tle French Arrny general staff.

He urged efforts should be made to break down trade restrictions between countries and said that although Britons were accused of looking on the Dominlons and col- onies as sources of raw materials. it was possible to envisage a time when “we shall deal not. only with the primary reduce but the man- ufactures which the Domin- ions trade not. only with the Enn- pire but with foreign countries."

Paying tribute to members of the royal family, Lord Elgin re- called the virtues olf Queen Vic- toria. George . the Duke of Windsor and the present King and Queen who "are examples of Brit- ish family life."

Of the Duke of Windsor, he said: "None can forget. the service of Edward. as a. soldier. a messen- ger of commerce and as champion of the err-servicemen."
