TOPROTESTS TOBRITAIN
Suggestion Made Washington
Has Lost Weapon to Prevent
Trade Interference
WASHINGTON. Ian. u

WASHINGTON, Jan. H.
The suggestion that the United States
has lost its chief weapon to prevent ille-
gal interference with American commerce
by Great Britain and her allies is being
investigated by those Senators and Rep
resentatives who have been advocating
reprisals to force a change in the British
methods. This suggestion has been set
up by the opponents of munition- embargo
legislation. who hold that, in peremptor-
lily defending the right Of Americans to
ship munitions abroad in it's reply to
Austria, the State Department committed
the United States to a policy that cannot
now be reversed without causing much
embarrassment.
Inasmuch as the submarine difficulties
are considered in such shape that only
some unforeseen development can prevent
complete settlement. officials now are
closely following the trade situation. Sec
retary Lansing has compiled for the Pres
ident complete data on which a new pro-
test that will include denunciation of the
placing of cotton on the contraband list
is to be framed. This is in the hands of
the President.

nounced by the official press bureau here

aeropanes have been downed and eight
airmen killed on the western front in

Stomach Bitters

This statement should set at rest
the CONSUMPTION talk that has been so
freely used to influence those who may
be considering settling in Canada dur
ing the war.
1t has also been said that there was
a war tax on land. Hon. DIR. Roche.
Minister of the Interior. over his own
signature has denied this. and the pre-
miers of the different provinces join
in saying such report is absolutely
untrue. ana has no foundation what
ever in fact, nor is there likely ever
to be any such tax upon land in
Canada"
The general prosperity of Western
Canada farmers and business institu-
tions is such that Canada is well able
to take care of the extra war expenses
without any direct war taxation. This
has been well Illustrated by the mag
nificent response to the Dominion Gov
ernments recent bond issue. which
was more than doubly subscribed for

ing offered to the public.

NO CONSCRlPTlO
IN CANADA
No War Tax on Land Embargo
on Shipment of Live Stock
Removed.

During the prevalence of the foot
and-mouth disease in some portions OF
the United States. an embargo was
placed upon Interstate shipments.
This also had an effect upon ship
ments to Canada. and necessarily an
embargo was placed upon them max
ing it almost impossible for upwards
OF year to ship cattle into Canada
from the United States This was es-
pecially hard on the settler. As re-
suit, Western Canada lost a number of
settlers. they being unable to take
their live stock with them. Canada is
practically free from horse and cattle
diseases. and the wish of the authori
ties is to keep it so.
Recently, though. an order has been
issued by the Department of Agricul-
ture. removing the embargo. and set
tiers are now free to take in the num-
Der OF head of horses or cattle that are
permitted by the Customs authorities
and the freight regulations. This will
be welcome news to those whose in
tention it is to move to Canada. taking
with them stock that they have had in
their possession for six months. and.
which it is the intention to use on land
that they will farm in the Provinces
OF Manitoba. Saskatchewan or Alberta
There are thousands of splendid
homesteads of 160 acres each in any
OF these provinces, that may be had
upon the payment of a ten-dollar en-
try fee and fulfilling the requisite liv-
Ing and cultivation duties. These
lands are well adapted to the growing
of all the small grains, and besides
having an abundance of grass. and suf
ncfent shelter. they are well adapted
to the raising of stock.
If one prepares to purchase land
there could be no better time than the
present. Prices are low, and particu
lars may be had from any of the land
companies, of which there are several
or from the Canadian Pacific and Ca
madam Northern railways. whose hold
