Mr_ VINCENT Massey, Canada’s new High Commissioner in London, did well to tell the people of the Old Country that "the progress of Canada during the past year has been steady and unbroken." It is to be hoped that this as-

cral propaganda in thefederal election cam- paign, in which Canada was depicted as being on the verge of bankruptcy and ruin. Indeed Mr. Massrzv, as Liberal campaign organizer, no doubt had something to do with approving the Liberal slogan “Kim; or Chaos” which was plastered on billboards and in newspaper ad- vcrtisemcnts from coast to coast. It was fitting. at any rate, that on the first opportunity the new High Commissioner should set the minds of the British people at rest. It is to his credit if, after the election, his conscience troubled him as to the means employed to exploit the de- pression. It would have been still more to his credit if he had dissociated himself from any part in a campaign based on such misrepresen- tation of Canada's position. His assurance of the “steady and unbroken progress" which this

as true voice, is essential to make known." Meanwhile, the Mail and Empire states “on good authority" that Mr. LAPOINT! issued his surprising re udiation of Dr. RIDDBLL with- out consulting r_ MACKENIIE Kmc, who was holidaying in Georgia. Mr. KING, however, has not improved matters by his so-called explan- atory statement. According to the Prime Min- ister, Dr. RIDDELL is to be replaced not by a member of the Cabinet but by another civil ser- vant. Critics of the Government cannot be blamed for inferring that it thus shows itself intent upon continuing to hide behind the skirts of an employee. Should another situation occur at Geneva similar to that in which Dr. RIDDELL figured, the Government will once more

_ be able to disavow any responsibility in the pre-

mises. This is not throwing the full weight of the Dominion against war‘ and in support of peace and disarmament.

The premiers of the provinces are going to this conference with s. lot of demands. and some of these de- mands are so reasonable that they can not be properly rejected. At the same time . they are of such a nature that they will make a serious drain on the Dominion treasury or on the federal IOSCU-F" oes o! taxation, and it is _ " able whether s. conservative finance minister like Mr. Dunning will countenance them.

The Dominion-Provincial Conference now in session at Ottawa is described by press des- patches as one of the most momentous gather- ings of the kind in Canada's history.

It certainly faces large opportunities in the making of Canadian political history, for never before was there so formidable an accumulation of crucial, uatioii- W'i(i€'pl'OblEll'lS pressing for solution as at pres- ent.
