Mr. Fairweather said the fol y of the German estimate of Canada's potential participation in the war was demonstrated by a document. no doubt colored to a considerable by wishful thinking which the Germans’ In- telligenm Staff had browsed lust before the wsr and "which he had an opportunity of seeing.

Collaboration 0f Canada At Mexico Conference By FRANK FLAIIERTY (Canadian Press Staff Writer) OTTAWA, March ‘l — (GP) — Official government circles in Can- ada have welcomed an expression of a desire at the Later-American conference in Me co city that “Canada's collaboration with the Pan-American system may- become‘ closer and closer."

Church's last official statement wi regard to the Pan-American union was made last Aug. 4 when Prime Minister Mackenzie King told the House of Commons that the Dominion had not received any in- vitation to oin the union. “It shoul not be thought, how- ever, that we are no 1011801‘ c surprise to ' say that CanadianmNufitionai freiflst traffic has Expect Air Force Statement Soon (B The Canadian Iresa) 0‘I'1'A A, March ‘l-Foreshadow- ing the March 3i termination of the big Commonwealth Air Train- ing Plan, an Air Force statement, sch::duled for release tomorrow or i ay, ‘ls e acted to outline a o the partial demobi- vulue of increas and friendship wit er gov- ernments of the wes is- phere," said Mr. King "On the contrary, we are steadily develop- ing our contacts with them on every appropriate occasion and in a variety of ways.
