LATE MESSAGES
OTTAWA, August 5
A message from Orillia. states that Lord Snell, Labour leader in the House of Lords, in an address to the Canadian Institute of Economics and Politics, said the integrity of the British Commonwealth of Nations must bo maintained and trade routes must bo kept open. Sufficient naval power must be maintained to enable England to import necessities. The British foreign policy has two main motives: First, there must be no war in which Britain is engaged, unless any of her major interests are threatened by another Power. Secondly, nations must seek to avoid war by collective security, by honouring a word when given. If the Empire becomes a thing of counting-house and ledger only, it will pass away.
