Hon, W. S. Fielding, who has now taken the seat immediately » the left of that to be occupied by W. L. Mackenzie King, Sir iifrid Laurier’s old seat, wanted to know what would be the ect if Canada refused fo ratify the treaty. Sir Robert Borden sharply replied that it would mean the feat of the Government presenting the treaty for ratification d that Fielding and his colleagues would be called upon to take heir seats on the treasury benches, if Canada stood out from a eaty assented to by the rest of the Empire. Although there will be discussion on the general principle, in| e event of there being any opposition it is likely to centre around he treaty of the league of nations covenant. Under this the embers of the league undertake “to respect and preserve as ainst extreme aggression the integrity and independence of e members of the league politically.” \BOR WILL © MANY PUPILS — DISCUSS RIGHT IN SCHOOLS 10 ORGANIZE New Room Opened in Migh Schoo!
