Fresh Mobilization Of T r o o p s Following Strained Relations With Ethiopia.

By Andrus Bordl-ug, Associated Press Foreign Stuff (By Glllldllll’! Slficlnl Wire)

(C. P. By Guardian’: Special Win)

MONTREAL, May 5.—The tum: has arrived. for the United States lo make substantial concessions on goods 1mm the British Empire, the

‘ May monthly letter of the Royal

Bank o1 Canada. states in an article on "Trude of the United States with the British Empire."

While the annual surplus of com- modityexporls of the United States over commodity imports has uverag- ed $560,000,000 in the past nine years, $495,000,000 of this surplus is 1n trade with the British Empire and $400,000,000 of it 1n trade with Great Britain alone. -

Although there are oflsctting fac- tors, such as shipping charges paid to Great Britain and tourist expen- dftums in Canada, it is clear that the surplus of commodity exports over imports on the part of the United States in largely represented by a surplus o; imports over ex- ports, to the United States by the ‘British Empire, and particularly Great Britain.

Empire tries and many for- eign countries have made and are willing m make heavy concessions in order to retain preferred access to the British market which absorbs a large proportion of the total surplus exports of the world. "It is ‘nevlt- able that if Great Britain is to "on- tinue to absorb excess goods from the United Btutescuotas for other countries must be suialler than would othenvise be the case," ac- cording to the bank's letter. ‘Cer- tainly. the record would indicate that the time has come for the United States to maike ‘ ‘ " coxessiom on goods from the Em- p 3.

Purely English Decoration Not To Scots Taste

(C. P. Cubic By Guardian's Spools! ' Wire)

IDNDON, May ‘l-Scottish mem- bers of the House of Commons "demonstrated" this afternoon against the purely English decor- ation of Westminster Hall for Thursday's stately -y, when Parliament presents a joint ad- dress of loyalty to the King and Queen. ~

The decoration consists of elab- orate velvet banners of st. George with six St. George's cross flags. This enormity, in the eyes of the Scotsman, is aggravated by the predominance of St. George flags over government buildings.

W. G. A. Oimsby-Gore, Com- missioner of‘ Works, was vigorous-

ly Y

and admitted he already had had a protest from St. Andrew's So- ciety, but stoutly asserted that not only was Westminster Hall u mediaeval English building but St. George's Cross was particularly suitable as the hell was built long before Anglo-Scottish union, but the Scottish office in Whitehall was exclusively decorated with St. Andrews’ crouuo having no samu-
