Nevertheless, he declared, war between Great Britamm and the United States was unthinkable and the failure of the Tripartite Naval Conference at Geneva, he said, should profit the nations when the time came to revise the Washing- ton treaties. Treaty | The Minister a the im- portance of the negotiations now going on between Washington and London for an arbitration pact simi- lar to the new Franco-American treaty. The fullest consultations with the Dominions, he added, were necessary. Sir Austen categorically denied the charges of Ramsay MacDonald, Labor Leader, that the British For- cign Office had caused the failure in Geneva by surrendering to the Admiralty, He admitted, however, that there had not been sufficient comtnunication between Washington and London prior to the conference. in his opinion, there should have been a confidential, even semi-offi- cial, exchange of views. Referring to Anglo-American re- lations in the House of Lords, Lord Parmoor said that the United States had recently made notable pro- nouncements in favor 'of peace, which had full sympathy, but much more would come out of them if they could be presented by the United States as a member of the League of Nations, OLD TREATY MAY ALD IMMIGRANTS sara Falls Residents Ap- peal Decision Under Jay Agreement New York, Feh. 9.--The 134- sar-old Jay treaty between the United States and Great Britain was quoted, in papers filed Mon- day in the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, to support the ~ontention of two Canadians that ey should be allowed to cross the 'nternational boundary freely to 1 from thelr work in the [ni- 1 States.

A. Dawson, of McGill Univer- sity, in a recent address here on 'he increase in the number of di- vorces in Canada attributed it to family disorganization and chang- es in community life, He sald divorce was a legal recognition of family dissolution, As some countries were more ready to rec- onize family disintegration by legal annulment than others, it vorces in the United States. and happcned that a difference in di- that meant that more than two and one-half tires as many di- vorccs were granted outside Can- ada than were granted by her own courts and legislative bod- fes. The total divorce figure therefore in 1926 was a little oy- er 2,000, "Rezarding desertion, the poor man's divorce," sald the profes- sor, "we have no accurate siatis- tics. But the indications are that there are vastly more instances of | desertion than of legal separation, and in most cases the family dis- solution is as great in the one case as in the other." The forces affecting the older forms of family stability, dcelar- ed Prolessor Dawson, were the rapid growth of citic:, great changes in transportatica and communication, 8 host of ncw and specialized occupation2l cpportun- 'ties, and the consziuent shifts land pavigation, into the respeec- tive ter»to~'es end countries of 'he two parties."

J0UBT POWER TO SUPPRESS FILM FEA- TURING EDITH CAVELL London, Feb. 9--Doubt was ex- pressed by newspapers here today as to the power of the Eritish censor to stop the showing of the film de- picting the career of Edith Cavell, British nurse, executed as a spy in Belgium during the war, In face of a protest from the German Foreign Office, Herbert Wilcox, the producer of the film, said he intended to show it in Berlin. The newspapers say the Govern- ment has no power to halt the show- ing of the motion picture, but can oily bring pressure on the Board of Film Censors. The functions of the board, however, are limited to ques- tions of morality and decency.
