v WINNIPEG, Mara, Aug. l7.-('May I submit a question to you, and I submit it crudely and in the plain- est words I can ernplcy-wil1 the Canadian producer and manufac- turer do his share?" Upon the ans- wer to that question, said Hon. Her- bert l-larler, Canadian Minister to Japan, trade increase to the Orient in the coming years depended.

Mr. Marler was addressing the Canadian Club at luncheon here to- day. Our trade with Japan was satisfactory 1n most ways, Mr. MHI'\ ler states, but it required greater c0- operatlon from the Canadian pro- ducer in the way of personal visits. Canadian sales with Japan over the last years averaged $34,000,000 s. year. With that nation he anticip- ated a. constantly expanding market for agricultural, marine, forest and mining produce. Mr. Marler deplor- ed the “walt and see" policy in con- nectlon with Orient trade. I-le point- ed out that cinudo could have the orentlcally, supplied $455,000,000 worth of goods, o! the average im- pcrztatlon of $800,000,000 over the last three years. In this time, how- ever, Canada. had averaged a sale oi only $18,000,000. He urged that com- missions throughout Canada under Boards of Trade to encourage trade Ith the Orient. -

Conservatives and liberals con- cluded thelr gathering in separate camps. Even then trouble curled as groups of belllnzerent spcctatori moved from one assembly to the‘ other. All morning long lines of trucks and cars streamed into Ste. Rose, until the town was crowded with the rural population oi Laval Coun-ty.

Roars of applause, flattering and otherwise greeted the two candidat- es as they met good naturedly. on the improvised platform where they were _cfticially nominated. Joseph Renaud, Conservative candidate and. first speaker at the contradictory meeting, urged the necessity of been in power for many years. been power for many years. His rival. Joseph Fillon chargea the Conservatives with mixing their Nderal and Provincial politics. The crowd became noisy as he criticized Mayor Bonnie's administration in Montreal. Pandemonium broke loose when another speaker took the stand. l-Iis wordswerc complete- ly drowned out. "My friends", ap- pealed Joseph Renaud, “Ladies and gentlemen" shouted Joseph Fillon. "will you_be good enough to take my advice and listen to both sides —you will be the Judge on the twenty fourth." A deafening babel of voices brought every man on the platfornrto his feet. Several stood on the end of a. loose plank which ﬂipped up and catapulted a small boy into the crowd. "It's a packed meeting" cried tho leaders.

Early Election In Ireland

Is Forecast

(By George Harnbietori, Canadian Press Staff Correspondent)

DUBLIN, Irish Free State, Aug. 1'f—-Behind the troubled scenes of Irish politics, party organizers are planning for an appeal to the polls. There was talk of it before the Dali (Irsih Free State's House of Commons) adjourned on July 1B for twelve weeks. There were conclaves of government and of oppositions supporters. Writers of political gos- sip expounded, interpreted and prophesied, but President Cosgrave kept his secret. Members dispersed for the recess without definite word. Yet there was a feeling of general elections in the air. That when it did come, dissolution would mark the opening of a sharp and bitter struggle.
