Canada and Trade

Canada is preparing to take a more COM
handing position in the postwar world, with
an eye focused directly on trade expansion
Brooke Claxton, member of the Canadian par
Hamentary under-secretary to Premier Mac
kenzie King, has revealed the Canadian pro-
gram at press conference
The primary objective to is see an Anglo
American-Soviet agreement as a guarantee
against the possibility that Germany might
be set up as buffer state and, as Mr.. Clax-
ton expressed it, 1--WE would have policies
equivalent to appeasement and isolation all
over again.
The Dominion's foreign policy contains five
principals, which Mr.. Claxton defined as
l. The Canadian people would like to
see their country join the Pan Am
erican Union.
2. Canada would like to see postwar in
struments set up now by the United
Nations.
3. Canada wished to cooperate closely
with the United States in the defense
of the American Continent but would
find it more convenient if Britain
were included as an outpost bas-
ton of American defenses.
4. Canada will not go back to trade re-
striction if the United States does
not reinpose high tariffs.
5. The Ottawa agreements are suspend
ed for the period of the war and what
Canada would prefer to them would
be the widest possible international
trade.
A Washington dispatch by John MacCormat
to the New York Times, in which Canada:
position and situation in wartime trade ane
revenues is discussed, says that the Dominion
has more than doubled the national income
! since the war and reduced the external deb
