debate on the motion for a correspon.
dence between Sir Edward Thornton, the
British ambassador at Washington, and
the Secretary OF the United States, rela.
tive TO wrecking, Hon. N. Mckenzie Cow.
ell, Minister OF Customs, said It had been
the desire OF the Government TO carry
out the law in order to protect the inter.
ests OF the wrecking and towing compan-
les OF this country, without endangering
either lie or property. He would not
refer TO the question OF reciprocity or the
correspondence with the American Gov
ernment. which would shortly be laid be.
fore the House. further than 10 say that
the position taken by this Government In
correspondence with the authorities at
Washington, was, that they were willing
to enter into any system OF equitable re-
ciprocity, but the American Government
had always resisted any such proposals,
excepting on the one ground that the
American tug owners should have the
right TO go into Canadian waters for the
saving Of property, not only OF their own
vessels but also OF Canadian vessels when
the opportunity presented itself. The
position taken by tho Canadian Govern.
ment was that this would be very one
sided Reciprocity and would give the
monopoly TO the American tug owners.
There was never any intention to prevent
any vessels going to the relief Of vessels in
distress when there was the slightest
danger OF life or property.
