SUGGESTS THAT FOOD III:
ABSOLUTE CONTRABASD

The Right Hon. Sir Roert Finlay

every reason TO he satisfied with tho
debate. He suggested that food should

Foreign Secretary Grey opened his
( speech by SAYING II was a difficult and
complicated subject which the house

, gathered from the debate that there
was real misapprehension concern
| ing the amount OF trade passing into

crnment was doing 10 stop that trade
| Figures given in the press had created
a Erotesaue impression in regard to
the amount Of leakage and would not
bear investigation. lie asserted that

GRAFTON the fact that in many cases eN-
ports from the United States had mere
ly made good supplies which neutrnls
| formerly drew from Germany
Sir Edward said il was time these
| attacks ceased. because they must have
! disappointing effect on the navy. for
they led the navy to think it's work
was being done by another department.
! Continuing, Sir Edward said:
with regard to neutrals, this gov
crnment is perfectly ready to adop,
any other method OF carrying out our
| declared policy of stopping enemy
! trade, than one now adopted which
| might bc more convenient and more
agreeable in practice, so long as il was

Spirley Renn. rnions, member for

traffic with Germany should be pre-
vented by blockade. was talked out
and the subject dropped. thus leaving
the position exactly as before the de-
, bate. except that Parliament seemed
more converted TO the government
policy.
Interesting figures published by the
War Department partly demolished the
ella aborate structure raised by the
newspapers. and Sir Edward Grey's ef-
fcctive speech appeared to finish the
work thus begun
