THE
FIGHT
GOES
ON
The
fight
over
the
price
of
wheat
still
goes
on.
It
is
a
great
battle
between
England
and
Canada.
As
we
have
said
before,
England
wants
the
cheapest
possible
wheat
and
Canada
wants
the
highest
possible
price.
England
has
bought
all
the
Argentine
wheat
she
possibly
can
and
left
Canada
with
her
elevators
bulging
with
the
very
best
quality
wheat
in
the
world.
In
Prince
Rupert
there
is
over
a
million
bushels
stored
and
no
sign
of
movement
People
do
not
realize
that
this
is
probably
the
greatest
financial
struggle
of
the
age.
The
financial
organizations
of
the
country
are
behind
the
grain
dealers
and
there
is
pretty
much
of
a
deadlock.
In
the
meantime,
a.
poor
grain
seeason
has
been
accentuated
by
the
fact
that
much
of
the
crop
has
not
yet
moved,
that
country
and
terminal
elevators
are
full,
trade
is
disorganized,
ships
tied
up
and
men
out
of
work,
all
because
England
buys
foreign
grain
instead
of
dealing
with
the
Empire
where
she
.must
pay
a
higher
price.
No
one
blames
England,
but
the
incident
simply
makes
clear
how
great
are
the
difficulties
in
holding
together
more
or
less
artificially
affiliatea
nations
geographically
separated
and
whose
interests
are
so
divergent.
Very
little
has
been
said
about
this
big
struggle
because
of
its
Em-pjre
significance.
Some
statesmen
have
started
to
urge
an
Empire
pref
erence
but
it
is
doubtful
if
even
a
preferential
di$y;
$ould
keep
the
business
within
the
Empire
at
such
a
tim&asitMs.

FINANCIAL
PRESSURE
In
a
speech
made
the
other
day
in
London
Rt.
Hon.
Ramsay
Macdonald
again
came
out
in
strong
advocacy
of
a
general
treaty
amongst
the
nations
which
would
provide
financial
assistance
to
any
state
becoming
the
victim
of
aggression.
The
British
Prime
Minister
took
a
strong
stanafti
this
question
during
the
twelfth
assembly
of
the
LeJiie
of
Nations
and
his
return
to
the
subject
indicates
mrdetermination
to
get
some
action
in
the
matter.
-
The
Prime
Minister
is
strong
for
necessary
changes
in
th&priginal
convenant
of
the
League
which
would
bring
it
more
in
line
with
the
provisions
of
the
Kellogg
Pact.
He
sees
gaps
in
the
covenant
which
would
make
possible
recourse
to
war
when
there
is
no
unanimity
among
the
members
of
the
council
as
to
which
of
the
disputing
nations
is
the
aggressor
and
when
the
nations
themselves
refuse
to
abide
by
the
decisions
of
the
council.
There
is
no
doubt
that
there
is
a
good
deal
of
"deadwood"
in
the
original
covenant
and
that
quite
a
few
amendments
would
bring
it
more
in
line
with
present
day
conditions.
Most
students
of
international
affairs
will
agree
with
Mr.
Macdonald
that
something
more
than
a
call
for
arbitration
is
necessary
when
national
feeling
is
inflamed
between
contending
nations.
Only
a
show
of
force
will
bring
some
nations
tfl
a
sense
of
reason
and
if
this
is
not
forthcoming
there
is
every
likelihood
that
war
will
ensue.
If
the
League
decides
that
a
certain
state
has
become
or
is
likely
to
become
the
victim
of
aggression,
it
must
be
in
a
position
to
bring
strong
pressure
to
bear
against
the
offending
state.
This
is
the
gist
of
the
treaty
proposed
by
the
British
Prime
Minister
and
it
seems
to
be
based
on
a
practical
understanding
of
the
situation.
It
k
understood
that
not
only
member
states
but
such
countries
as
the
United
States
and
Soviet
Russia
will
be
asked
to
co-operate
in
this
treaty
which,
whether
it
is
enforced
bj
the
League
or
some
other
agency,
must
prove
a
potent
force
for
international
peace.
