STOCKHOILM, March 11—(AP)— -Black headlines in Scandinavian papers proclaimed tonight that Finland was on fie verge of peace with soviet Russia and rising stock exchange quotations reflected n- eral optimism despite evidence that rumors of agreement between the two waning nations were prema- tu-

ie.

Conflicting rumors clouded the actuai status of the peace nego- tlations.

There were reports that the Finnish delegation, headed by Pre- mier Risib Rytl, already had left for home by way of Stockholm with the Soviet peace proposals, but as hours passed and the Finns failed to appear here Swedes con- cluded the talks at the Kremlin were continuing.

Southern Envoy Is N0 Stranger With Canadians

fought alongside Canadians in the Boer War (1899-1902) and the First Great War (1914-1918).

During the big counter -ofiensivo of August. 1918. when Bil‘ William commanded an Australian division. the Canadians were on his risht flank. These experiences he said, filled him with admiration for the men from the oldest Dominion.

The high commissioner. who will be accompanied to Ottawa bv his wife and two officials from the ex- ternal affairs de artrnent, hopes to renew old acquaintances and make new ones in Canada.

"1 shall do all i mv er to make the relationship be ween Aus- iralia and Canadaeien more cordial thanlft if at present." he said be- fore eav ng.

Sir William considers the view-

int that inter-Dominion diploma-

ic appointments are symptomatic of the empires weakness is absurd. ‘Such a ointments are fresh evi- dence of tie wish of the Domlnions m draw closer together and milli- ialn the closely knit fabric of the Empire." he declared.

Colonials Come To Aid Britain

LONDON, March 11 —(CP) -Side by side with the Domlnlons, the col- or is arc playing their part in the Empires war effort. Like their "big brothers" the participation ls both llllillilly and (economic. Because of increased expenditures in the last few Years. the colonies were better prepared for W81‘ than in 1914. 'i"r11iiiiad's force was six times as great and Hoiig Kong's five times. In addition, lot :11 defence forces have been csiabislied for the first Line in a number of the smaller colonies.

Wiicn the war was declared all lo- cal defence forces were mobilized and they carried out such essential duties as coast watching, The card- inal principlc was that the first call upon manpower" must be for local dcfciivc, cs cntial government ser- vices and local industries.

The home government assume a greater degree of control over e colonial empires financial and ec- onomic policy to mobilize the full resources. Measures of import and cxpori coiiirol and control of lor- ciggi exchange were introduced.

slaps were taken to make avail- able for other empire countries and for the allies some 0f the more im- portnui colonial crops. The whole sugar crop up to Aug 31, 1940, a-part from supplic; for domestic use, ha: bought by the British government.

It also decided to buv the entire 1939-40 Gold Coast and Nigeria co- coa. crop mid part of the crop from certain other colonies at agreed prices. Efiscivlicre Britain is buying part of ilic crop of oil seeds. nuts lilld vrgciziiilc oi s. The remainder is available to neutrals, provided tlicru is no resale io Germany.
