New Minister ome- tional Revenue In Apologetic Vein.

HALIFAX, “Nov. 21—Re. gret‘ that cod and haddock hadlnot been included in the Canada-United States trade agreement was expressed here today by Hon. J. L. Il- sley, K. C., Minister of Na- tional Revenue.

Addressing the ann ual meeting of the Nova Scotla Liberal Association, the min- ister assured the delegates that Prime Minister King had pressed for concessions on these iish in his negotia- tions but had been unable to make way for them.

In like manner President Roose- velt hsd pressed for concessions on United States coal but the Prime Minister had stood his ground. Mr. Ilsley commended the Prime Minister for his "energy, resource- fulness and his courage” in negoti- sting thc agreement. The criti- cism from bot-h sides oi the bor- der which had followed the sign- ing oi the agreement was to be ex- pected. The criticism in Canada would come largely from those who would be subjected to competitic , the minister said.

The a; ment would have the effect oi greatly increasing trade in the Maritimes and the rest oi the Dominion, he said, and would put an end to the nesr-sightcdness oi "eomcmic nationalism." Referring to the Government's action in abolishing harbor com- missions, tho minister said he be- lieved public opinion throughout the country approved the movement.

The government fully realised the-dangers that could arise from it, he added, but was prepared i0 see that none oi the ports suffered as a result of the new policy.

Stat! Writer) (C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) HALIFAX, Nov. Zl-The ad-

vancement of industry in Canada's Maritimes held the spotlight today as Maritime Board oi Trade dele- gates rang down the curtain on their annual convention.

Help was sought by the Board on behalf oi the fishery and pota- to growers, the twin steel and coal industries '0! Nova Scotia and the tourist trade in appeals directed al- most, exclusively at the Federal Government.

uouy Debsted

Around the question of aid for the fisheries, a hot debate devel- oped over whether the Dominion administration should be censured for, asserted "'fsilure" to include Atlantic iish in its new trade treaty with the United States and to con- sult with the indust y before signing the treaty.‘ . .

A. H. Whitman oi Halifax thought a“"strong protzst" should go out. Stephen Mooney of An- dcver, N. B., considered slapping the government's face was a "hell ofa" way to get help from it. And the debate raged pro and con un- til a diluted resolution was adopt- ed, calling for a study oi the new Canada-United Slates treaty with a view to "trying to bring about conditions acceptable to "the Can- adian Atlantic fishery."

Should "Bectiiy" Treaty Terms

The tresty drew attention also in another resolution, adopted with- out debate this time, that sold steps should be taken to “rectify the situation that mw obtains, where the United States can expor; potatoes of all kinds into Canada [Ne oi duty while Canada can ex- port only l,000 cars of seed pota- toes."

Assistance for the tourist busin- esl-tenncd the "greatest future industry of the Maritimes, with one or two exceptionsW-wns asked in two resolutions. One sought the establishment of national parks in the Maritimes, still without any; the second urged the provincial goverments to undertake more rig- id ‘ pection oi tourist accommo- dations 1n the coastal provinces.

Tariff Extension Urged

For the coal and steel industries, the Board asked continuance oi ex- isting tariff and subvention aid. to be extended wherever possible. was the reaflirmatlon cf_a resolu- tion adopted at last year's conven.

The problems of industy and other topics disposed of, a new slate oi officers was elected before ths convention closed. Dr. J. A. Clarke of Charlottetown was chos- en president in succession to R. J. R. Nelson oi Halifax, and the fol- lowing vice-presidents were elect-

C. N. l. Control

The Commission chairman, at the request of retiring president Nelson, gave the final assembly all argument as to why control oi the Canadian Notional Railways“ At- lantic lines should not be shifted to Moncton, N. B. The proposal had been advanced by the New Brunswick government as in the interests of the provinozfs economic develmrent.

It ht be a “retrograde step," Mr." "rdrhbul!" a question, he said, as to whether it might or might not, be a "fetal mistake." The trend oi the day, he pointed out, was toward unification, rather than divorce, of business interests.

New Brunswick opinion was by no means unanimous on the ques- tion, George B. Oland of Saint John told the Board. He declared the Board oi ‘rradc in his city would not endorse the proposal un- til it had been approved by the three provinces.

SHANGHAI, Nov. il-Japanese officers turned over to the Chin- ese National Government todav the problem of reforms in North China, but fear was expressed in official quarters the independence movement may yet go through.

The Japanese Foreign Office caused a hitch in the Northern

‘" nomy movement, a high Nan- king official here said, for fear that the situation would prejudice Japan's demands for tonnage par- ity with Great. Britain and the Un- ited States in the forthcoming Lon- don naval conference.

Chinese circles were alarmed. however, over the possibility that Jblliifs army would act independ- ently oi Tokyo.

Major-General Rcnsuke Isogai. JI-lll-Ilocc military attache, said there was a strong possibility the Nankirig Government would irn- prove conditions in the north and tire autonomy agitation would die

WASHINGTON. Nov. zl-Sharp- ly rapping its “lobbyist" and pol- itical crltim, Secretary oi State Hull said today “no one questions the broad economic benefits" _of the new Canadian trade agree-

ment.

His statement, exceptionally stinging for a state department head, “noted a. number of protests, confined almost entirely to Pro- fessional partisan politicians or to some of the specially privileged in- dividuals benefitting from exces- sive tarifi rates." Hull added:

"From a standpoint of both agri- culture and industry the sound- ness of this trade agreement is clear. A few months cf Practical operation will demonstrate the value of the sags merit in terms of increased trade to the mutual benefit of both countries."

It was the fourth successive day that some member of the admin- istration had issued a defence of the agreement made public last Sunday. Secretary of Agriculture Wallace again today urged farmers “hot to heed the alarms instigated by enemies of agriculture.

During the day there was a new attack of the trade treaty. A demo- crat, former Senator Clarence Dill of Washington, suggested that the lumber industry join with others in challenging constitutionality of the reciprocal tariff law under ‘which the agreement was nego- tiated.
