DEAD IN THE MILLIONS

Re As Trump And Xi Spar, An Ancient Trap Awaits Both (May 7): It is interesting that Niall Ferguson, author of The Pity of War, refers to Graham Allison's concept of the "Thucydides Trap" and to Henry Kissinger's argument in his book Diplomacy that "an increasingly rigid alliance system condemned Britain and Germany to war in 1914."

Perhaps these authors read David Marquand's biography of Ramsay Macdonald who, as Britain's first Labour prime minister, made exactly that argument in 1924, a position for which he was initially vilified, then sanctified.

China and the United States should take note that Macdonald warned that "secret diplomacy" between these alliances led to the first great war, and argued that such questions would be much better put directly to the people. War between these two behemoths would make the First World War death toll of more than 16 million people look trivial.
