QUEBEC, Que, Jan. 5—'I’he idea of lutrrdiuperlal protection which would assure through the products of the lhnpire en immense naerlcet of 500,000,000 consumers, made Brent progress and roused many minds at the recent Imperial Conference. Speaking before the Canadian Club here today. Hon- Maurice Duprc. Solicitor General. made this declar- ation. “You know," Mr. Dupre er- plained, "that was the feeling of the people at the opening of the 1930 conference. The whole British Em- pire turned its eyes towards London ln the expectation of the announce- ment. of principles which would help in overcoming the world-wide de- plessions.

"The Canadian electorate had mo- llollllwd 1B favour of a protective Dolley; Australia bud adopted an in- tensively arblecllva system: also the Other Domlnlons favored the exten- sion of Imperial preference. "In Eng- land itself, under the urge of gener- al depression and diminishing trade, the great newspapers called for a new policy. The Congress of Labour Unions showed itself favorable m the placing of duty on foreign products and the opening of markets to Im- perial products. The Federation of British Industry declared itself along the some lines; the l-ilgh Finance It- self Issued a manifesto setting forth its belle! in a policy of intcrlznpcriul production." The Solicitor-General continued: "Never heretofore had the British world been so unanimous t0 accomplish an economic unity wlfch would permit the a-muraitce of the independence of its members by a logical and natural policy of pre- ference within the limits of a splend- id constitutional lrarmony‘. “Despite the Llllllllllilly of the Dnminlons, de- spite the m-cssura of the nuist influ cntilll “Jrlion of British opinion, the Labor Government for the (itomi-ut refused to respond and collaborate. Despite the efforts of the leaders of all the delegations the situation rc- mains stationary."

LONDON, Jan. 5.—'l'he British Liberals ilhYE swung behind home rule for India, that is, for self Gov- errlment with safeguards.

In,‘ all the essentials, Lord Read- ing, cu behalf of the Liberal delega- tion acccpted the scheme submitted to the Conference on Friday by Si.‘ Tlcjrva Adur Sapru, Hindu Itfodelaie.
