CANADA WANTS NEW TREATY
 WITH U. s.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The pro- posal that the century old agreement between the United States and Canada regarding military and naval defenses to be maintained along the interna- tional border should be revised in per manent form was made to Secretary of State Hughes at the conference be- tween the latter and Premier King of Canada. The Canadian premier's ideas are that the new agreement should embody the advance in inter- national amity as shown by the peace treaties consummated at Washington last winter While some other mat ters were discussed, the fertilization of the joint border was the principal matter considered. It is more than likely that a new treaty modernizing the old agreement will be negotiated between the two countries.
