CANADA TREATY
FOR BORDER PEACE
Premier Mackenzie King Would
Modernize the Rush-Bagot
Compact OF 1917.

Washlngton.-Th fact that the long
frontier between Canada and the
United States has remained unfortifed
for more than century was empha-
sized when william Lyon Mackenzie
King. the Canadian premier, and
George Perry Graham. the Canadian
minister OF national defense. called at
the state department and at con-
ference with Secretary OF State
Hughes proposed that the ideals of
the RushBagot agreement, limiting the
naval forces of Great Britain and the
United States on the Great Lakes and
Lake Champlain. be perpetuated In
a new treaty between this country and
Canada.
Under the terms OF the Rush-Bagot
agreement armament on the Great
Lakes and ST. Lawrence river was re-
stricted TO four vessels of 100 tons
burden. each carrying not more than
one elghteen-pound gun. The idea OF
the Canadian premier as submitted to
Secretary Hughes is to modernize the
Rush-Bagot agreement and embody the
Ideals OF its trainers into a new and
formal treaty.
I'VE feel" said the Canadian pre-
mier, that II the American govern
ment has the same view with respect
to effecting economies. while at the
same time furthering the efficiency OF
defense, the ideals OF the Rush-Bagot
treaty can be perpetuated into a new
permanent treaty that will be a land
mark In the direction Of Limitation Of
armaments. We feel that here is an
opportunity for Canada and America
to give a lesson In international good
will and friendly dealings"
Find Hughes Sympathetic
The Canadian officials found Secre-
tary Hughes highly sympathetic and
II is their expectation that the pro-
posal submitted will result In negotia-
tions for the formulation of a new
treaty. Details Of the proposed treaty
will be left to such negotiations. Only
the general purpose and spirit OF the
proposal were suggested In the con-
ference
The visit Of the Canadian premier
and the minister of defense will also
serve to cement the traditional friend
ship of the two countries in other
ways, by paving the way for the
settlement OF other matters between |
them, and bri Slng the Canadian pre- |
mier and Minister Graham into closer |

Who choose TO share the wrongeS

And on their generous bodies take
The seorn. the load, the loss, the ache
They bind the exploited to their side,
And marry the Franciscan bride.
The dark eyed lady, Poverty.
And lead her forth where all can see.
There is a spirit breathing power.
The power that feeds the secret root.
The only root that bears the flower,
The only flower that brings the fruit,
The only fruit for hungry man,
Pursued by many millioned art,
Since out Of nothing he began,
To hunger for the happy heart
In that one search his currents creep
ing,
And ali his winding rivers sweeping
Beneath his thousand bridges
That only power shall we make free
That power Of loving now unbind?
Each man release his dcepmost Me,
And give that Me his body and mind7

Its rich demesne, its broad estate,

The beasts, the plants, the air, the

The seeming-s solid earth shall prove,
For what SO moves the hearts Of men
Can make these marble mountains

And guide the currents Of the mists,
And turn the rivers in the SOUTH

That blows the coal on a mans mouth,
And makes his language words Of fire,
And fills his hands with destiny
The spirit Of unselfsh desire,
Bu once by mans will set free.
The mightier books upon these

The books that shout "Hal Ha" TO

Grew out OF creatures like ourselves
Who let their natures be sublime.
They dared that very hour begin
To live full brother with their kind
Full brother with their darker skin;
The foreign born; the opposing mind.
Short human lives, subject to fate
Who loosened their spirits, and were
great.

When the fresh breeze is blowing
And the strong current flowing
Right onward to the eternal shore ?"
