1t is stated on the highest authority
that this statement represents accu-

This position Of Canada is known

Is known feels authorized in saying that
there are only two ways out of the

UNFAIRLY recede from her demands for
a Pacific tidewatcr port: or, second, that
the United States shall surrender the
principle laid down by Secretary Hay
In his tentative boundary line, that
America will not grant temporarily or
otherwise any port facilities to the Ca

That Canada win yield Is considered
by state department officials who have
discussed the new und acute phases Of
the situation as improbable 2.
