"France is not to blame,” Declares M. Poincare

(Canadian Press) .

_ PARIS, Nov; 16.--Premier Poincare took issue with Premier Baldwin of Great Britain as to who is to blame for the present Franco- British differences, when he rose unexpected- ly to speak in the Chamber of Deputies this afternoon during an interpellation on foreign affairs.

“I cannot let it be said that it is our fault that an agreement has not been reached,” he said, “for several years we have not ceased to ~ make concessions from our rights and it is not‘, on our side that the attitude is uncomprom-i isingf’.

(Canadian Press)

LONDON. Nov. ltlr-Premler Baldwin today told the House oi’ Commons something about his tar- ii! plans and the reasons for pre- cipitating a general election. lie wit; specific regarding only what he itropoees ‘to exclude from tax- ation, that Is, wheat, flour and meat. Including mutton and bacon, and (iheesn, butter and eggs.

i-‘or everything else the Prime Minister reserves "a perfectly free halnd" for lator decision. On what articles he proposes to raise the tariffs. ho altvitlts the advice of a committee appointed to consider the subject.

ills plea oi necessity for protec- tion was based largely on the argu- ment that in the matter of tarlil’ every nation's hand is against Great Britain. Several nations. o5- pecially the United States, Italy and Spfllil. had-greatly increased tariui-i since the war.

Mr. Baldwin's speech was in no sense an oration. He gave the House a perfectly plain talk. such as the chairman of a company might give t0 his board of direc- tor-t. On foreign affairs, which un- der the excitement of the impend- lng tiumpaligh are almost forgotten, he said, the Allies had been inform- cd that the British people could not continue indefinitely to main- tain the spirit necessary for co- operation undcr the existing situ- ation ant‘: he deplored the failure

(Canadian Frau.) ~ilAllill.'l‘ON. 0nt., Nov. 1o’.- Canada has u deep interest in the fiscal crisis through which Great Britain is now passing and the at- titude of the lirltlsh public to- wards the preference proposals of Premier Stanley Baldwin will have a big bearing upon the fu- ture prosperity of the Dominion, according to the tieclaration-i made hero tonight by flight Hun. Arthur Metghen, in the course of an address before the associated boards of trade and Chambers of Commerce of Ontario at a banquet. Tho matter is of such vital impor- taice to Canada. Mr. Meighen said, that he felt all business men should comprehend the signifi- cance of the first fiscal move on the part of the. British Premier and should realize that a consis- tent preference trade policy for the British Empire would be one of overshadowing importance in the development of Canadian ex- port trade. While all the Domin- ions would undoubtedly benefit by any such policy as Mr. Baldwin is seeklirg to put into effect. lion. Mr. lllelghen said he was confid- ent that Canada would benefit most ot’ all. That would be due to tho fact that Canada has the ad- vantage of distance over the oth- er Domlnlons and thofurther fact that industrial development has gained the firmest foothold lu this country of any part of the Do- minions.

Chancellor Strosemann, and. although the Roddhistag at present ls not in session and Berlin still is without its regular complement of IWVWDHDBTS, political circles con- fldentlr predict that the SLTQSO- inann "rump" cabinet 'wl1l not be able to survive the parliamentary attacks awaiting it from the Ger man Nationalism and the powerful Socialist ital-ties.
