The bill received second and third readings and was sent to the Senate. The treaty provides for mutual tariff concessions on. trade between ‘the two countries. Pole.nd's total import trade last year, said Hon- R.. B. Hanson, Min- ister of Trade and Commerce, was $148,500,000 of which Canada, nc- cording to Polish trgzle returns, supplied only $38,688.' anads‘s im- ports from Poland amounted to about $184,000. It was hoped the treaty would lead to considerable increase in this trade. PRIIRUGATIIIII l I II El Y AT NIIIIN TIIDAY Date of General Elec- tion Will Be Discus- sed at Government Caucus. (C. P.

The hour depends largely on progress made in the Senate on the new grain board bill, there being few contentious items remaining in the Kansa order paper. (C. P. by Guardlarrs Special Wire) UITAWA, July 4--The custom- ary pre-prorcgatlon Government caucus has been called for tomor- row at 9:30 a. m., when it is ex- :pected the question of Prime Min- ister R. B. Bennetts continued leadership, if such question exists, will be discussed. It is also be- lieved the caucus will study the advisablllty of going forward with the motion to take over as govern- ment order, the resolution of J. H. Harris (Cons. Toronto-scan borough) endorsing the Ottawa Trade Agreements. On his ret.u_rn from London Mr. Bennett announced his intention of remaining at the head of the Govemment so long as his health was maintained. He has since ex- premed his desire to stay at the helm through the election cam- paign. if his abilities are not im- paired by illness. Hopes were expressed today in Government circles that proroga- tion might be possible, so far as the House of Commons was con- cerned, by tomorrow noon. It would be unlikely that goal could be attained if the debate on the Empire Agreements were to be re- opened. The general belief was it might be dropped in the inter- ests of early prorogation.
