WORLD CONFERENCE
REAL HOPE TO WORLD MR. BRUCE’S OPTIMISM (Eloc. Tel. Copyright—United Press Assn.) NEW YORK, Aug. 28’ The forthcoming world economic conference at Loudon presents “a real hope to a distracted and almost desperate world,” said Mr. Stanley Bruce in an address delivered on Sunday night. He refused to contemplate the conference as a failure. He said that what had been done at Ottawa, if applied to a wider sphere, should materially assist in the restoration of world prosperity. “At Ottawa, we realised the necessity for wise protection by tariffs for efficient, industry,” he said, “but we were equally convinced that prohibitions! and prohibitory tariff's must be abolished. The fact that one group of nations was able to establish this principle should encourage the hope that an agreement may be reached in the international field.” Mr. Bruce sails on Wednesday to take up his duties as residential Minister for Australia in London.
