crisis federal government threat ened with defeat over financial bill canberra australia facing the biggest political crisis since premier w s hughes went out of office in 102c the federal government i threatened with defeat over tho fin ancial agreement bill which finally eliminates per capita payments by the commonwealth to the states la oi ls solidly in favor of restoration of these payments tho defeat of the government would mean the resignation of jit ilon stanley bruce prime minister and lus cabinet and formation of a ministry by james henry seillin labor leader as the latter could not hope to retain control a genera election would be inevitable former premier hughes nominally a government supporter is active with those who are threatening to un seat premier bruce but it is not thought he would lie acceptable as leader of either the nationalists gov ernment party or the lahorites mr hughes claims tho nationalists in 1925 specifically laid down that per capita payments to the states would not be altered unless to the satisfac tion of the states themselves the covornmoit he charges have disk- gaidcu that pledga and brught in a measure forcing their own financial scheme down

following a wild quarrel over pro cedure we have a sovereign power said the speaker which is capable of mak ing treaties and carrying them out it needs no interpretation st lawrence scheme touching on the subject of the st lawrence waterway scheme mr sandwell contended that thy br ah north america act of 1807 would have to bo changed if such r scheme went through he quoted it in part the parliament and government of canada shall have all powers neces sary for performing the obligatio of canada or of any province thereof as part of the british empire to wards foreign countries arising uhdar treaties between the empire and such foreign countries concerning the constitution of the united states mr sandwell quoted this constitution and the laws of the united states which shall be made in pursuance thereof and all treaties made or which shall he made under the authority of the united states shall he the supreme law of tiie land and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby anything in the constitution of laws of any state not withstanding the powers not dele gated to the united states by the con stitution nor prohibited by it to the states aro reserved to the states re spectively or to tho people mr sandwell stated that the united states supreme court did not render decisions on irrelevant questions it required an actual legal conflict before it will vender a decision explains treaty the speaker pointed out that treat ies are bargains and that they are made not only by one of lh contract ing parties but by both if the con sent of both is essential to the forma tion of a treaty tho consent of both must also be essential to alter or can cel they are just as binding and just as far beyond the lawful reach of legislative acts now as they will be at any future period or under any form of government the empire makes treaties on our behalf said mr sandwell but it cannot forco us to enact legislation to carry them out prairie wealth to provinces favors
