INTERNATIONAL PEACE
CANADA’S EARNEST ENDEAVOURS. (Rec. 11.45 p.m.) Ottawa, March 27. Discussing the plan presented to the House of Commons by Agnes McPhail, a Progressive member, for the creation of a Department of International Peace, the Premier, Mr King, outlining the Government’s attitude towards peace, said that Canada was closely identified with the League of Nations. She was taking the lead for a better international understanding. The action of the Government, in establishing a 'Legation at Washington was another step towards international, goodwill and understanding. The proposed Legations at Paris and Tokio was a further endeavour in the desired direction. He said that recently the British Government had asked Canada if she wished to participate in a treaty being negotiated with Egypt, but the Canadian Government had declined.—A. and N.Z.
