CANADA'S ATTITUDE
SILENCE REGRETTED
WHEAT IN RETURN FOR PEACE
(Received September 23, 12.30 p.m.) WINNIPEG, September 22.
"Canada could not remain neutral with Britain at war," the LieutenantGovernor, Mr. W. J. Tupper, told the convention of the Army and Navy veterans of Canada. "No real Canadian believes such nonsense," he continued, "constitutional authority is all against it."
Lieut-Colonel Webb asserted that his only regret was that at a time when Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa had assured Mr. Chamberlain of their support, Canada had not spoken. l The "Montreal Star" suggests, in an editorial that Canada should authorise Mr. Chamberlain to offer Herr Hitler Canadian wheat on long-term credits as a peace move, but not a bushel without an assurance of peace.
