B. Bennett in regard to the tariff, which include the practical shelving of the British preference, should be supported so strongly by most of the peop.e who are Usually so strong for everything British. Some of the people who attended Mr Bennett's lecture stated afterwards that they considered the speech the strongest possible argument for union with the United States. If our only natural market were cut off to the south and. if there was to be no British preference, and if, as stated by Mr. Bennett, practically all other countries were raising their tariff against Canada, there would soon be no market left for Canadian goods and fiscal union with the States would be the only alternative. Indeed, following the meeting, it was freely expressed by more than one that the best thing for North America would be a fiscal union which would include the right to pass north and south of the boundary at will and would do away altogether with the customs barriers. We are not suggesting this just now as a Canadian policy. It was the speech of Mr . Bennett which indirectly suggested it. What we suggest is that doing away with the British preference is a dangerous thing unless, we wish to break the British connection altogether, lb .looks to us as if Mr. Bennett would have us shout Britfeh and-act American. ""Y';;'1 OUTSTANDING QUESTIONS There are two outstanding matters before the world today. Qne is the final adjustment of the German reparations payments, as a result of the war, over which., the powers of .Europe have been snarling for the past week. The other is'the quarrel between Russia Aub China over control of the Chinese Railway, built largely by 'Russia on Chinese territory. With Russia cultivating a f eeljnf that all the world is against her, and with China just being aroused to a feeling fii nationalism which resents foreign control of her territory, the Manchurian question is undoubtedly the most dffficuU to settle and mav possiblv result in a resort to arms . This, it is hoped, will be avoided, as conflagrations are apt to spread. The whole world wouVl be opposed to Russian domination of China, and for that reason the sympathy of most people is with the Chinese. LABOR ON TRIAL Labor has been on trial in the international controversy going jon at The Hague and Philip Snowden hs so far showed up well . He is likely to be looked upon as an outstanding figure among leaders of the party from this tfrn'fi on . Should Ramsay Macdonald at any. time in the near future retire, Snowden will probably make a bid 'for the leadership. Any man who can withstand the powers of Europe as he has done at The Hague must have sufficient force of character to lead the party at home, it would seem . On the outcome of the present conference much will depend . Should it break without a settlement, Snowden will be looked upon upon as an obstructionist. If he can swing Europe to his viewpoint, he will be a statesman of the first calibre . Nothing succeeds like success . i mm SIXTH STREET PRINCE RUPERT MANSON SPEAKS TO GYRO CLUB (Continued From Page 1) working as a single tnind, In spite of politics or other affiliation!, for the good of I heir country There had.-been adopted a spirit f fair and'equitable dealing, com-promise and mutual assistance. Many differences, both geograph a a) and economical, had had to be overcome in the spirit of the gathering. Concluding his preface, Mr. Manson touched briefly upon the arious subjects that had been dis i-ussed. giving his peanonal views on some of the matters. It had been realized that changes were necessary lo bring the .British North America Act up to modern requirements. In the matter of the senate, there were none who favored its abolition, but there was a unanimous feeling that its members should be imbued with more responsibility to the people, so (hat it would be more than an obstructionist body. Taction, and lis meaning and allocation under the constitution, had been a matter of much .tii.v cussion.

I Railways Railways had also forae in for considerable consideration. It had been suggested, and Sir. Man-son felt it was souncl policy, that the provincial railways, being to cohiderabIe extent Dominion affairs, should ho taVon off thn hands of the provinces and incorporated with one or the other of the two great national systems. Dominion subsidies for scientific research had also been urged and Mr. Manson felt that such would do much to establish Canadian accomplishments with thos of the olher nations. On Immigration there had "been diversity of opinion, but Mr. Man-son himself, felt that a middle course should be adopted. The Dominion should bring in such immigrants of good character and quality .as she could absorb.
