CANADA is A
COLONY OF The
UNITED STATES
Wall Street Is Investing
Heavily in Industry
BY LELAND oLDs.

Federated Press Industrial Editor)
Steady detachment of Canada from
the British empire and its annexation
to the empire of American finance is
revealed in a review of U. S. invest
ment in Canada issued by the depart
ment of commerce under the direction
Of Herbert Hoover. Canada's vast
wealth of natural resources is going
to pay huge annual tribute to the
financial lords of America.
Economically and socially" says
the department, Canada may be con-
sidered as a northern extension Of
the United States and our trade with
Canada is in many respects more like
domestic trade than our foreign trade
with other countries. The movement
of industrial raw materials from Cana
da to the United States and the return
flow Of miscellaneous assortment
Of partly or wholly manufactured
goods is not unlike a similar flow be-
tween the west and south and the
more industrialized northeastern part
of the United States"
Increase investments.
U. s. capital in Canada, the depart
ment shows, has increased from $780,
100000 in 1915, to at least S2,425, OOO,-
600 in 1922 or nearly six-fold. In the
same period British capital in Canada
has remained very nearly stationary
amounting to $1,S60, 10000 in 1915
and to 1,9SO,OOO,OOO in 1922.
The United States in recent years
has largely replaced Great Britain as
Canada's banker. In the eight years
just preceding the war 73.5 per cen
Of all Canada's borrowings were fron
Great Britain and 9 per cent from the
United States. In the eight years end
ing with 1922 only per cent Of Cana
da's borrowing came from Great Brit
ain and 80 per cent from the United
States.
The principal items of American
and British investment in Canada at
the beginning of 1924 are shown by
the department:

Threatening weather in the morn

prevented some of the officers and
many of the members from attending
but enough were In line to make the
meeting a success from start to finish.
And the members of Wesserunsett
Grange didn't do their work in a half
hearted way when they put forth
every effort to decorate the stage
and hall with an abundance of flags
and flowers. Then the generous din
ner that was furnished under their
auspices all proved that the welcome
given by W. r. Bowman, Master OF
this Grange, was altogether true.
AT the morning session the opening
exercises and comforting the Pomona
degree were first in order. Then the
dinner. Then the social hour. Then
