The opposition victory in New-bundiand elections draws attention to an interview criven here in July, 1927, by Sir William Coaker. bir William predicted an opposition victory in the next election. He predicted at that time the sale of Labrador to American interests. He said Newfoundland was in no humor to consider confederation with Canada. If .ne day came when Newfoundland considered her destiny in any way apart from her present constitution, it would be to the United States she would -- - look. Sir William said, adding that iirnTrnnr iTTnimn Newfoundland wa. coming around vo the idea of a state of the United States. I "If a referendum were taken on this question it would carry by : '5 per cent vote, not because New-' foundland h;.s forgotten the old I flafUbut because the tendency of tka times to to eoMtder aVHtara and cent flf?tt. l.JWftfUgtftlWU would nevei stand Ly and see the Old Country trampk 1 on but when a question is to be decided that means no injury to the old flag but dollars and cents for her people it is likely the latter feeling would prevail. The true destiny of Newfoundland with her fisheries, forests and minerals lies In the dirction of the United States, Sir William said. HUGE STORM ON PACIFIC VICTORIA. Nov. 2.
