iReveaisPC nada’s Stand At Geneva

Y Prime MinisterlStates Canada Sup-

ported Spain In Secret

(By C. R. Blackburn, Canadian Press Staff Writer)

CTIJHVA. Fcb. 2i-'J.'h~.-. veil of scicrccy which covers some of the activitcs of the League of Nations ivas drawn aside momentarily by Primc Minister Mackenzie King to- day when he revealed to the House oi Commons that in the vote on Spain's iii-eligibility for election to the League Council last September, Canada sup orted Spain.

Reading rom a prepared state- ment. the Prime Minister answer- ed a question by M. .1. Coldwell (CCF-Rosetoivn-Blggar). and said h" was moved to reveal Canada's stand in the secret ballot on Spain lest "refusal to give the information Ililflllt lend to renewed controversy and misrepresentation of Canada's position."

At the same time the Prime Minister made it clear Canada. vot- ed for Spain as an entity, regard- lcss of the Government which rep- rcrcntccl it at tlic moment.

Two ncivs reports (not by The Canadian Pre s) from Europe last fall stated Canada haci voted ag- ainst Spain and th 'e was consid- crablc editorial crfi. ism which. be- cause of ihc secret nature of the ballct. tho Primc Minister did not s:e fit to dcny or confirm at. that

time.

In his statement today the Prime liiinlstoi‘ also told of the difficul- tics of delegations at Geneva act- in: quickly when they were call- cd upon to di cuss tiicir course of action with Governments many thousands miles away. Bulk 0f the Leagues agenda was known in ad- vance but matters frequently arose without warning requiring quick ckcisions and sometimes making it. necessary to abstain from voing pending rcccipt of in lructions.

Mr. Coldwclls question was

Gene_v_z_1_Ballot.

whether Canada votcd on the re- port of the League drafting com- mitteeln October last, recommend- ing the Brussels Conference on the For Eastern situation. and what instructions were given to the Canadian delegation on the vote for re-eligibilitv of Spain for the League Council.

On the first psart of the question the Prime Min ter explained that the drafting committee report on the Brussels Conference was rush- ed through without allowing time for Canada. to obtain instruc- tions from Ottawa. Canada sup-

orted the report when it. came

efore the assembly next day. liav- ing been advised to do so by the Prime Minister in cabled iustruc~

ODS.

With respect to Spain the Prime Minister said no instructions were given and none had been given for several years on such votes. The full list of candidates is not known. customarily, until the assembly is in session. The senior Canadian delegate. Senator Raoul Dandur- and, had voted for Spain on his own initiative and for reasons set forth in a. letter which the Prime Minister read to the House.

Spain failed to obtain the nec- ccssary two-third vote of the as- sembly to make that. country elig- ible for rc-election to the council. A news report from Geneva to an " rglish paper stated Canada had voted against. Spain. -

"As the question has been asked and a refusal to give the infor- mation requested might. only lead i.o renewed controversy and mi:- rcprcsentation of Canada's P351- tion. I have decided to inform the House what. in fact. was the. stand taken by the Canadian delegation in this case," tlic Prime lvfinistei"
