llll|ET REIBN8 IN Pllllllillil PARTY EiiiiiPS

O'I'I‘AWA, Aug. 20 —(CP) —A lull in party political developments is in prospect this week, and little activity is expected on Parliament Hill apart from the regular routirie of adiministraiiorn.

Prime Minister Mackenzie King will remain at his summer home in nearby Kingsmere where he is in constant touch with his offlceazidis not expected to come down to the capiul even for the regular weekly cabinet sessl/on. Conservative Leader Manlcn, who has made platform speeches in several parts of eastern Canada since early summer. has no im- mediate engagements for political addresses.

Party workers axiously watch the news from Europe to learn whe- threr they are likely in he CB.li"’d un- on in fight a general election in the Fall.

Depends On Lavelopments

The ‘Prime Minister has made it plain to his associates and the ixlc that the does not consider it wise to dissolve Parliament for the perdod necessary in hold a w3n-eral- election while the situation in Europe holds a threat to world peace.

In some sections of the Liberal P -riy there is a feeling that Can- ada should nrccrwi in the normal routine of her e-:s'nctvn'n and petiti- cal life re-wordless of the conflict- inrz and rhteateneinrv reports of events wbroad and the constant possibility of the Emnir-e becoming embroiled in a world conflict.

But the fesliwz of the Prime Minister. and pro-b<~b'v of the bunk of his foifcws. is that. in the face of the present situation, there should be no justification for dis- solving Poriiam-zmt for an election which could be delayed. if desired, until the Spring of 1941.

Flood Waters Spread Havoc At Tientsin

TIENTSIN. Aug. 20 —(AP)— Rapidly rising flood waters, in- creased by steady rain, today tem- porarily washed out Japan's nine-

~—weoio- blockade of the British and

French Concessions and brought one of the worst disasters in this region's history.

Flood; from the Hai River and other streams poured almost un- impeded across lcveied dikes and embankments, put the city's electricity supply out of commis- sion and swept away communicat- ion and railroad service.

The British consul general de- clared a state of emergency in the British concession and the municipal council appealed to the Lord Mayor of London for as- sistance.

“Ticnisin surrounded by floods. concession seripu/_7 threatened,” the message read “Refugeespour- ing into conccmicn. maintenance of whom difficult owing to con- ditions caused by Japanese block- ade. on behalf of British muni- cipality I appeal to citizens of London for Assistance to relieve- distress."

Within the British Concession many smarts were submerged and rain continued. Hordes of refugees crowded strcets seeking dry space.

Great Britain remained calm despite the ominous signs on the Continent. but the Sunday news- papers editorially reflected the gravity of the situation.
