Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.
WASHINGTON, July 12,
Mr Mackenzie King and Mr Graham, the Canadian Prime Minister and Minister of Defence respectively, called on Mr Hughes, and also met Mr Hoover, Mr Weeks, Mr Mellowes, and other members of the United States Cabinet, and had a talk with Senators. Mr King proposed that the century-old Eush-Bagot Treaty, limiting armaments on the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes, should be modernised and put in the form of a new permanent treaty. He said he wanted to see .a new treaty that would be an outstanding landmark in treaties of good-will and friendship between nations, and an expression of the negation of armaments to the nth degree.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
