CANADA’S MINISTER AT WASHINGTON.
AN INTERESTING POINT. Received April 26, 10.15 p.m. NEW YORK, April 25. The Evening Post’s Ottawa correspondent says: Budget provision of 60,000 dollars for the expenses of the Canadian Minister at Washing- , ton has precipitated an interesting and important debate upon Canada’s [right to separate diplomatic representation. It was long known that Mr. Meighton favoured the appointment. Mr. Meighen’s opponents point out that until the British North American Act is changed Canada is still a dependency and a colony and cannot take on the trappings of an independent nation. The plan is condemned also as being likely to produce friction between t<e British Ambassador and the Canadian Minister at Washington.
