BRITISH COMMONWEALTH.
CONFERENCE BEARS FRUIT. TORONTO, Sept. 22. “We can render no more excellent service than promote these two great organisations, the British Commonwealth and the League of Nations,” said Hon. Newton Rowell when closing the first British Commonwealth Relations Conference to-day. Mr Rowell ranked the personal friendships formed and the frank statements among the gathering as the most valuable results. It was wise, lie thought, that such a conference should be unofficial.

He urged that every effort be made as fast as possible to strengthen the great inacinery provided for world peace by the League of Nations, whose only fault was not in the machinery, but that it had not yet been used to its full power.
