Last year census only imported 098,811,700 of iron and stools products but that wssay ofhaidtlmeeandim- portgtioqg were very low, Canada has brought in ls high $246,015,810 worth o! iron and its product's in‘ one ycars,.almoet all of which in

The Dominion is said s. very

heavy importer of ' ‘ 1-; in-

cluding those used for dying, for

the manufacture of explosives for

as well as drugs, medicines and

soaps. The textiles industry, the

leather industry and the newsprint industry are all heavy importers

of chemicals. Canada's total im-

portstions last year were $30,731,345

Other Preferences

Miscellaneous manufacturedgoods would also be given substantial

' preferences. It is hoped to increase

the lmportations of anthracite coal although it already comes in free from Wales.

The imports of copper and brass products from the United Klnsdom would also be increased by the tariff change ‘proposed. In this class also including some zinc and tin articles, the total imported by Canada last fiscal year was 084,- 301,105 of which $4,284,756 came from the ‘United Kingdom and $27,020,002 from. the United States. The success of the committee on standardization now endeavoring to bring uniformity between the various Domlnlcns and the United Kingdom in the matter of metal parts, and other manufactured goods will have much to do with the extent to which the United Kingdom manufacturer will be able to take advantage of the increased preferences in iron and stool pro- ducts. The United States, the great home of standardisation, is so close to Canada that the standards adopted there in the matter partic- ularly of the iron products have spread pretty thoroughly over \thls country and it w'll take consider- able study and not a little revamp- ing of standards both in this coun- try and in the products of the United Kingdom mills to take full advantage of the market now of- fered. However. the subcommittee undcr m. Tory, head of the m- tlonal Research Council of Canadl. is said to be making excellent pro- gress in this regard.

lDuring the fiscsLyear closed on March 31 last, Canada imported iron and steel products to the value

r

Canada's offer of preferences for preferences was submitted to the British delegation today. Canada is prepared to add certain lines of British exports to her free list. On others, she is ready to widen the margin of preference-either by increasing the duty on foreign im- ports or by reducing the rate on British goods, as is considered bes suited to tha situation. The offer ls understood to cover around 200 items in such classes as iron and steel, anthrscito coal, some lines of textiles, brass , ts, chemicals,

ectrica-l supplies, automobiles.

In return, Canada asks Great Brtiain new or increased preferences on wheat, meats includ- lng bacon; lumber. dairy products including butter and cheese, fish, copper, nickel, zinc, lead, cattle, vegetables, fruits.

land annuities and the oath of al- legiance, the Irish Free State is the only Dominion not in ' " ‘with Great Britain. Conversations looking to ‘agreements are however under way between the Irish Free State and the delegations of other Dominions.

The Irish Free State is negotiat- ing with Australia and South Af- rica. She has made contacts with Canada.

The Irish Free State is prepared

to give preferences on wheat, coal and industrial equipment in return for preferences on dairy produce, liquors, malt beverages. , Reports from all delegations are that the conf is proceeding 1smoothly and swiftly. Some dele- gates are even hopeful that the work will be finished by the end of the coming week.

Representatives of primary pro- ducers of the Empire adopted a resolution today urging the gov- ernments represented at the Em- 4 pire Conference to evolve some ‘plan which will not only ensure

Major Roper than outlined the history of the Legion. 1n i925 Earl Hay came over to Canada and out of a welter of veteran's organisa- tions was formed the Canadian Le- gion, a member of the British Em- pire Service League. The speaker outlined the policies of the Can- adlsn Legion, which is non-sec- tarian and non-political. It stands for loyalty and for ordered govern- ment. During-these timesof stress and strain, returned men have rs- mained true to their discipline, without creating disorder, in con- tra dlstinctim to the action ex-scr- vice men in a country not fsr rc- moved from Canada. ‘The speaker next dealt with the objective of the Legion of benefiting the members who required assistance and of in-

' slsting on-fair play. The growth of

the Legion was phenomenal. At present it has 115,000 members, and 1,100 branches. The Legion stands for the unity of all His Majesty's forces, of all who enlisted to serve their country. It's membership is open to every man who went into the service of his country. 1n Can- ada are Imperial veterans and South African veterans who are members of the legion. The or- ganlzatlon also has a duty in re- membrance of the fallen. As a re- sult of a letter written by thc speaker, the Government has signi- fied its intention of having written a history of the war for Canadians. The Legion has had its part in es- tablishing Remembrance Day in Canada. A great work of charity is also that of the organization. The importance of patriotism and of public service is always stressed, as well as the standing up for fair play. The members should be proud
