Thus did Sir William Clark high commissioner for Great Britain in Canada, paint an optimistic future of Canada and the other Dominions before a gathering of 600 businessmen and visitors from other western cities at the annual banquet of the Board of Trade last night. "If anyone has doubts and fears for the future of the British Empire, I could suggest no better remedy for so deplorable a mental state than weeks of travel in Canada," declared Sir William, who is en route to the coast.

The conviction that the naval disarmament difficulties between the great powers would be overcome was expressed by Lord Ccshendun of Great Britain, when making in the league preparatory disarmament commission his long-awaited expression on disarmament. But while these difficulties were obstructing progress, he declared that there was no reason why, in his judgment, the commission should not get along with limitation of land and air armaments. He strongly urged the commission to go ahead with its work of preparing a draft convention on disarmament. "We are prepared to make great sacrifices to reach the agreement we desire," . he said.
