Wind-Up of Imperial Confer
ence With Dominion Agree
mentS Probable.
BRITAIN SEEN VEERING
TO INTERNATIONAL VIEW
Huge American Purchase of En-
pire Goods Influences Decision
to Move Cautiously.

BY the Associated Press.
OTTAWA August "a prospect that
the imperial conference would limit It,
self to bi-lateral agreements between
the dominions and leave the rest of the
agenda for the coming world economic
conference at which the United States
will sit appeared as the conference be-
gan its third and perhaps final week
today.
The general belief was that Great
Britain would do something to open her
doors wider to the products Of the do
minions, but that in ooing SO she would
be inclined to confne herself to mea-
sures looking to an international revival
of trade rather than to purely empire
benefit.
Wales Speech Recalled.
1t was recalled that the Prince of
Wales, on the eve of the opening of the
conference, referred especially to the
undesirability of damaging the empires
world trade.
Canada and Australia" he said,
cannot dispense with their world mar
ket for wheat. Australia, South Africa
and New Zealand cannot do without
their world market for wool. The United
Kingdom needs a world market for her
manufactures. The political differences
of the world the empire cannot cure,
but on the economic side cannot some
message of hope go out to the world,
dying in the grip of almost universal
(trade) restrictions?"
For the most part, it was expected
today, the new trade alignments made
here will be considered as revisions of
most favored nation treaties rather
than an attempt to treat the rest Of
the world, particularly the United
States, as competitors.
U. S. Buys Empire Goods.
On the average, the United States
has bought almost s200,000,000 worth
of rubber each of the last five years
from the Straits Settlements, $3.50, ,000,-
900 worth of pulp wood and news print
paper from Canada as well as $40, ,000,-
900 worth of timber, $50 900 900 worth
of jute from India, $55, ,000, 900 worth
of tin from Malaga and from SIS, 5,000,-
900 to $50, 0,00000 worth of wool, hides
and skins from Australia. New Zealand
and South Africa, respectively.
In these purchases, it was pointed
out, the United States supports the
economic structure of the empire in
no small way, especially in taking rs
per cent of the rubber produced there.
AS a result of this, America appears
before the conference far less as a
trade rival than an indispensable
partner in imperial prosperity. Amer
leans have more than 5000, ,000,00 in
vested in the empire and they buy
from Canada more than Is times as
much as all the nations of the COM
monwealth together.
