CANADA SUPPORTS
BRITISH ATTITUDE

Ottawa.-Canada's government does
mot consider II in the interest Of Can
ada. of the British empire or of the
league ITSELF" to recommend to par
lament adherence to the Geneva pro-
tocol for the pacific settlement of in.
ternational disputes, Premier King
told the house of commons.
The governments attitude was
made known when the premier read
paragraph from a dispatch sent by
him to Sir Eric Drummond, secretary.
general of the league of nations. The
premier's message, holding that Can.
ada objected particularly to the pro-
tocols rigid provision for applica.
tion of economic and military sane
lions in practically every future war;"
added:
Among the grounds for this con.
clusion is the consideration of the
effect of the non-participation of the
United States upon attempts to force
the sanctions and particularly in the
case Of contiguous countries like
Canada"
