Canadian Revenue Cutter That Looks
Like Gunboat.
In 1917 treaty was made between the
United States and Canada, the terms of
which forbade the entry of war vessels
on the great lakes. Each government,
however, was permitted to float three
revenue cutters on the lakes-one on
Lake Ontario and two on the upper
lakes. The armament of these boats
was not to exceed one 18-pounder gun
each.
Not long ago the English government
entered what to Uncle Sam looks like a
gunboat on the great lakes as a revenue
cutter, and this has caused a great deal
of discussion in the United States. 1t is
only fair to say, however, that the Cana
dian government claims that this gum
boat comes within treaty requirements,
and that the United States has no cause
whatsoever for Directing to its entry as
a revenue cutter.
Uncle Sam, however, has been up and
doing. To Offset the entry of this gum
boat and the fact that Great Britain can
at short notice introduce gunboats on
the upper lakes from the lower st. Law
