LONDON,

The

upon

where

Adolf

to

been
ready
for

three,
days,
its
contents
had
been
guarded
with
secrecy.
It
had
been
reported,
however,
that
both
the
'
Locarno
Pact
and
the
Treaty
of
,
Versailles
would
be
denounced
on
!
the
ground
that
Germany
no
i
longer
considers
Itself
bound
by
!
cither
treaty.
!
There
was
also
believed
to
be
a
posibility
that
Germany
might
announce
its
intention
to
re-arm
I
the
Rhineland.
In
other
quarters
there
was
j
speculation
that
the
Franco-Russian
alliance
might
be
con
demned
and
that
support
might
be
proffered
Italy
in
combatting
sanctions
imposed
by

elated
with
such
a
move.
The
object
of
the
plan
is
to
apply
to
Canada
a
scheme
of
voluntary
migration
for
settlement
from
the
United
Kingdom
to
the
Dominions.
At
a
conference
In
Newcastle,
England,
the
British
government
was
called
upon
to
take
action
together
with
the
Dominion
governments
to
aid
such
a
colonization
scheme.
The
proposals
of
the
conference
were
laid
before
the
British
government
and
received
a
sympathetic
hearing.
Under
the
plan
a
number
of
foundation
community
settlements
would
be
established
in
Canada
on
areas
of
proven
land
close
to
or
in
the
midst
of
existing
settlements.
The
land
for
these
settlements
would
be
purchased
by
committees
In
Britain
and
settlers
would
be
olaced
on
them
as
tenant
farmers
until
such
time
as
they
had
proved
their
adaptability
and
learned
how
to
farm.
Then
they
would
be
en
couraged
to
acquire
farms
of
their
own
and
others
would
take
their
places
In
the
foundation
settle
ments.
The
aim
would
be
to
secure
culture.
The
essence
of
the
Hornby
plan
ls
that
It
provides

with
a

and
a

on

with

with
