Within the two-particle cluster approximation for the Glauber dynamics and in the framework of the replica symmetric approach we study a proton glass model with essential competing short-range and weak long-range interactions. It is shown that the imaginary part of susceptibility exhibits a low-temperature peak which corresponds to the system transition to a non-ergodic state. The phase diagram for different interaction parameters and random internal field is plotted.
