Empire Statesmen to Debate
Status of British Dominions
Canada, South Africa and Irish Free
State Anxious to Come to Under-
- standing on Subject
London—Empire stateamen are
now trekking from the ends of the
earth to attend the Imperial Confer-
ence which is scheduled to begin here
on Oct.- Id. All the Dominion prem-
iers will be present, and the Indian
delegation includes two representa-
tives Of the Indian rulers besides the
Secretary of State for India, Lord
Birkenhead.
Foremost on the agenda of all im-
perial conferences he the question of
foreign affairs and policy. "Thie year
the subject is to be reviewed by
Stanley Baldwin at the outfeet of the
conferencti, and it is expected to give
rise to an important discassios re-
garding the status of the Dominions
as self-governing nations in the Bri-
tish Empire.
League Council Seats
in previous conferences it hue al-
ways- been found possible to`relegate
this question more or less to the
background. But this year Canada,
Sotith Africa, and the Irish Free
State are understood to be extremely
anxious to come to a definite under-
standing on the matter. Canada, for
instance, wishes to know how it
stands on the question of the con-
stitutional rights of the Governor.
General to refuse to gtant 0 dissolu-
tion of parliament. South 'Arrive
has very pronounced ideas on the
question of deminion indepenelenve,
as shown in Rs recent attempt to
design a new flag -from whica the
Union Jack was entirely excluded,
and these views are shared by Ire-
land._ Canada again is credited with
Reeking election to the League of
Nations Council next year (as Ire-
land did this year) and wishes to
know what the attitudesof Gent Bri.
tain is going to be toward is candi-
dature.
Hitherto the British Government
has been inclined to shelter itself be-
hind the comfortable 'assumption that
France and various other European
powers would regard a Council sent
for the Dominions as giving Great
Britain two votes on the Council
when other nations only -had one, and
that they would therfore never agree
to it, But there is a strong feeling
both in Great Britaineitself and in
the dominions that if Salvador, which
pays less than 21000 a emelt toward
the expenses of the League is entitled
to a Council. web, -so are the domie-
ions which between them pay over
2100,000. Canada alone pays more
than either Poland or Czechoslovakia,
both of which have temporary seats
on the Coun'cil.
The Locarno Trepies
But the matter •does not end with
the mere question of dominion eligi-
bility to sit on the Council. 'Under
the present arrangement, Great Bri-
tain is tacitly understood to speak
for the whole Beitish Empire on the
°Outwit. If one of the dominions
were elected, would the British re-
preantation merely bo doubled, or
would the present ararngement cease
and the elated dominion apeak for
ell the other dominions? Or, finally,
- would it speak for itself alone? The
other Members of the Council would
certainly have soneething to Say if,e
the British representation were mere-
ly doubled,. and there are indications
that even if Canada were •elented to
the Council text year, Australia, and
Now Zealdand would much prefor to
be represented. by Great Britein,
But if the elated dominion spoke for
itself alone, What Would become of •
the ueity of the British Empire?
Besides the question •of the League
Connell, the surveyof foreige policy
tenet inevitably cover the Locartto
Pact, but so far the dominions have
been quite definitein refusing to do
so. No one here takes this to mean
that if Great Britain had to go to
war in fulfillment of its obligations
under the Locarno treaties, the dom-
inions would necessarily stand aside,
but merely that they wish to reserve
the right to form their own judgment
on the merits of any partieular case
that might arise.
Rights Under Pact
British Gbvernment spokesmen
contend that Great Britain really re-
tains, this right under the Loearno
Pact becauee the League Council
must decide by unanimouse vote what
to do in the event of any breach of
the Treaty and Great Britain by vir-
tue of having a permanent Feat an
the Council, therefore, has complete
power to sway the issue on way or
the other.
But since the treaties were signed,
the theory has gained currency that
no interested party, can vote in a
League Council decision. Great Bri-
tain, being heavily interested in the
question of a breach of the Locarno
Pat, would therefore in this case be
unablet to vote and the eheory that
that it controls the situatioa Would
fall to the ground, it is not expeCted
hereethat any of the dominions will
adhere to the Locamo Pact unless
this point can denitely be resolved in
Great Britain's favor, and probably
meet of them not even their
But it is considered extremely
doubtful whether Stanley Baldwin
will be able to give the doted:dons
any assurance on this point, espec-
ielly no there is 8 strong tendency
on the part of European goverements
to leave the question of votine rights
on the Council severely alone until a
crisis arise to, make decieion inevit-
able. That it would, of course, be
too late then or the decision to have
eny effect on the actual trisis which
brought the issue to a head, dotie not
seem to affect the situation.
Empire Settleinent
In addition to foreign policy the
assembled premiers will 11tinlitll4 the
question of empiregsettlenicnt. At
present Great Britain allots mime -
thing like 23,900,000 yearly to assist
would-be emigrants to the dominions
but so far not more thae about 2500,-
000 in any one year has been taken
up. This is not due to a searcRy of
would-be emigrants, The Christian
Science Monitoe reeneeentative un-
derstanda, but to the unsuitability of
most of the applicants and of the
great caution exercised by the domin-
ions in making a selection. An effort
is theeeore to be made to finclea solu-
tion of the difficulties whieh have
hitherto prevented the many vacant(
spaces of•the Empire from being peo-
pled by some a the mother country's

CANADA'S GROWTH OF TOBAC-
CO LEAF
eSinada is hemming finite a to-
bacco country. Formerly eMba and
Virginia had a practical monopoly
in the Western hemisphere. In fact
as late as 1921 we exported as little
as 200,153 lbs. of leaf, where as last
year we sent abroad 3,531,422 lbe.
or more than seventeen times as
much. As in many other tinge Great
l3ritain was our best customer, tak-
ing 2,210,109 lbs. of leaf. Of the
total production, Ontario's 18,261
acres (Essex 12,840, Kent, 4,471, El-
gin 780 acres an dother muntlite 161
acres) yielded 20,023,000 lbs. Que-
bec's 0,554 acres 8,632,000 lbs., and
ten acres in British Celumbitt r
110,000 lbs. The total fv_mt value
given in the annual report of the of-
ficer in charge of the T4flill,(f,-) Dive

The New Immigration in Canada
!Me.
IImmigration to Canada is ro-
il, cognized today as one of the
eountry:s greatest if not its greatest
eponomie asset. Authoritative state-
ments en the subject have been
made to the effect that internal
problems confronting Canadian peo-
ple today can, practically without ex-
ception, be solyed by greater popubi-
time Writing in a recent issue of the
Dalhousie Review, Mr. Fe L. Chi-
canot of Montreal, special publicity
representative in the Department of
Colonization and Development of the
Canadian Pacifie Reilway, strikes a
most optimistic note concerning re-
cent intneigraeion to Canada. His
article entitled "The New Immigra-
don" 18 000 of the most compre-
hensive that has been written on the
subject, Mr. Chicanok who was in
close touch 'with the development of
Canadian peptilation during tim Post-
war period, states that J110 era 01
Canadian immigration opened up it

2.—An excellent type of settler for the Canadian weal.
the spring of 1926 was essentially a
new immigration. In explanation
he goes on to 5113:
' "The years since ,..e war have
serged to bring out a N . tual revolu-
tion in nearly every phase of the
matter, as actually for the first time,
immigration became a public question
received the thought and attention it
deserves front the people of Canada,
and was realized to be of lirst national
montent. Immigration to Canada in
the years before the war Might
roughly be compared to a broad
stream pouting into the Dominion and
spreading out emeontrolled in all
directions.
"The war ended, and a great
popular inner from Europe was ex-
pected for Canada. It never took
Otto, largely because the trend was
discouraged at the outset. Canada. --
unlike Australia"then regarded im-
migration as a possible fresh problem
instead of an economic remedy, The
Canadian Pacific llailway which,
in expectation of a heavy post-war
movement, had organized a cbloniza-
tion department, most keenly appre-
ciated the change which had come
over c'hditions in general throughout
t
th country and the necessity of
1,
i
'l,
taking a different view of immigra-
tion. The days of surging ROW rad
passed, probably never to return in
the same way,and in any case such
i
an haphazard nundation was hardly
desirable."
Mr. Chieanot then describes the
great immigration work being carrfed
ottt by scores of immigration societies
M Canada which came into existence
through the new intereste of tke
Canadian people in immigration., As
the result of supervision throtigh
these many societies the type of tate
migrants to Canadian shores was
greatly improved. "With the var/ous
channels beginning to act", contraues
Mr. Chicanot, "each por
trickle of new life blood int anada
g its
the railway—equally.solici, us asset°
keeping these peopleM the Dominion
after arrival—directed attention to
tho other end di the horn, and set
about turning the new popular in-
terest in immigration to practical
account, People actuated not alone
by the national good, but also bg a
pride in them own locality and, a
desire to see it prober and exftt
hadmerely,to liave the 1110008 n d
out to them in order that their
natural sympathy for the newcomer
might take practical form."
