RED DARK BROWN AND WHITE l France I. I relying IIGIJBI Q It is probably due to the election Epreliminarics that official France is adopting`. a somewhat haughty tone `toward an unofficial suggestion from `the United States that she ought to _ :set about the payment of her debt to .that country. While no member of the French Government has made iformal reply `to this proposal, some `of the leading newspapers have rc-' {iterated a previously expressed de- ;c-laration that no attempt will be matle Fto pay either Britain or the United States until Germany has paid France. ,The leading newspapers in the latter icountry are subsidized by the gov- 1 'ernme'nt for whom they act as spokes- imen in all mattersof policy, more especially when these have to do with foreign affairs. We may make smut- allowance for the exuberance of elec- *tion campaign utterances, but France is in a fair way to estrange her best friends. Roumania is setting an ex- ample which might be followed with benefit. She has paid as a second in. . stalment of her trade debt to Canada. ; halfa million dollars. This debt,` "aggregating several millions of d<.l- 3 lars, was incurred through an ar- - rangenientywhereby Canada extend- I ed to Roumania credit: f~r a ,l.'m<.r<- quantity of clothing and other ne-cos: ` saries, the government here paying` for the goods all of. which were bought . in Canada, and receiving credit from Roumania.

Within`? .a two weeks . period recently no less `than 1,000,000,000 paper francs were- turned out by the government presses, ` .and according to an official state- ment there is now thirty-eight and a half billions of such money in circul-3 ation. A few French journalists see; -the danger of this outpouring of : paper.- Their criticisms, however,` are falling upon deaf ears, for France, `is in the midst of a general election campaign and the government is stak- ;ing its fate -an .its'attitude toward; IGermany in the Ruhr.

It is certain, however, that France would not have .consented in -her present mood, and the influence of the League would have suffered a greater blow perhaps than was_the case in refusal of Italy I ,To Extend Imperial Preference ` A hint of the trend of "opinion in Britain in trade matters is found in the offer of, the government to the Imperial Economic Conference, and we comed by the latter, of an exten- sion of Imperial preference to dried fruits, dried currants, preserved fruits, sugar and tobacco. not, of course, benefit all the Over- seas Dominions and -British colonies in equal degree. But as far as it goes it will be of considerable benefit to a_ numl_)er_ of _t.he__rn. As a sign of the This does Premier of South Africa`, who is tak- ing a prominent part in the Imper- ial Conference to recognize it in the dispute with Greece. While in the latter evient the League ultimately accomplished a useful -nurnose 21':-:l is entitled to. some credit for such a settlement as was reported. it seems to be the con- census of opinion that much more ef- fective moans must be taken to im-: pose the League's authority if it is not to be disregarded by the great powers. - _The Overseas Dominimis` through their r0p1`esentatives at the Imperial Conference are being` brought more closely in touch with: T matters of Europ_ean diplomacy thang ' ever before. Their parliaments, how-. i more or less directly affected by what ever, must remain the deciding fac- tors in any line of proposed policy. Each country represented naturally; views European affairs from the; angle of its own interest yet all are `goes on in Europe. - 3 `Embargo Raising Has He|ped.Little 5 Some cattle dealers in Britain have; been expressing disappointment at; the meagre results which have fol-E lowed the lifting of the embargo against Canada. They had expected,i it seems, a great inux of cattle from? this country.\ Several causes have? combined` to militate against` that.l The most effective, according to re-1 cent dispatches, is the attitude of? British officialdom which, by its `in-'1 sistence upon` the absolute letter of} the regulations and under the re-_; cent legislation is` able. it is said, to; maintain. what almost amounts to; an` embargo. That this `kind of thing` cannot last does not make the sit-i uation any the less irritating to Can-1 adia_n shippers. It is probable that! the situation will adjust i_tself,l through force of public opinion in! Britain, which will not"be inclined? to allow its desires to be nullified by` red tapeism. IIIICUIB IO nuwvvvwn-n-3 i a Russia's recovery from the condi-- tions brought about by the revolutioni and more recently by the crop fail-I ures in" the "wheat growing districts, is indicated in a period of prosperity and` plenty. According to reports she will have a large exportable sur- plus of wheat this year and in fact is already exporting considerable, quantities of grain. An interesting} development in this connection is the! statem_ent that some eighteen hundred ' grain, elevators are to be constructed. in the south-eastern regions and that. orders for a large number of these? have been placed with Canadian con-g tractors." There are intimations alsoi that the railroad systems of Russia! are to be rehabilitated on a large; scale. It is probable that Canadians` will also assist in this work. Sir Don-it ald `Mann, of the famous Mackenzie; & Mann organization, which construc- ted the Canadian. Northern Railway,` recently returned from Russia wherei he had been paying some attention, to railway and other transportation` facilities. He was reticent as to im- mediate plans, but there was an inti-I mation in his statements that he} might. be interested in some of the! projects together with other we1l~| known Canadians. 3 lllgll annoy: uuu no-no ----~ Lord Leverhulme, the famous Bri-i tish manufacturer, who is noted for his trenchant speeches and his tre- mendous belief in the great future of the British Empire, has been declar- ing in some addresses delivered in Britain that the Motherland is on the eve of a period of, great prosperity. He argues that the United States im- migration and tariff laws are driving people and trade away from that country. The tariff will have a still stronger tendency to kill U.S. trade if it is increased as some Washington dispatches indicate that it is to be. United States trade returns with their falling off of exports may perhaps be constructed as sugporting Lever- hulme s argument. T is does not re- lieve the strain in other countries which are feeling the tariff just now. Canada; for instance, is threatened with a further increase in the tariff on wheat, while Newfoundland and other countries in the Empire are af~ teeter`. {mm time to time by new or increased duties on fish and other products. Still. the United States seems to bethoroughly imbued with the idea that a high tariff is requisite. Washington could not. therefore, ob- ject if other `countries adopt the l High Tariff 311;! "U35.

There is keen interest in this development and the manner in which subscriptions are being put in, indicates that there is! still plenty of money in Canada. It' would be a fine thing for the British peoples everywhere if they could raise! all their loans within their own boun- daries ~or within the boundaries of the Empire. That has not been feasible during the past few years owing to the exchange rate being against Lon- don, because of the immense Britishl war debt. Some of the Dominions.i too, have suffered from similar caus- es. Recent occurrences have, how-| ever, shown them all to be possessed. of tremendous recuperative powers, and practically able to care for them-- selves in any emergency.
