OTTAWA, 'September 9.-The de

bate of the resolution for the ratifica- iflon of the peace treaty, it is. expect- ed, will close on Thursday. Although the Liberals have argued against the ratification of the treaty and have criticized particularly clause ten, it is unlikely that they will vote against it and it is' expected it will be passed unanimously. The debate has devel- oped an interesting cleavage between the two parties, the essential differ- ence is that the Unionists want to ratify it as a nation and the Liberals as it colony.

Canada’s Share

Oi indemnity

(Special to the Guardian)

OTTAWA, Sept. 9.-The statement

attributed to Premier _Massey that New Zealand expects to receive ten million pounds indemnity from- Ger- many is the subject of common coin- ment among members and there is lllrelillood of questions in the House as to what Canada/s share is likely to be. Canads's statement of claims has already been illled out but it is em- phasized here that what will be rec- eived cannot be estimated till all claims have been died and the ability of Germany has been determined. Priority has also been given to certain claims, namely, (a) cost of the arm- ies of occupation during the armlstice and tts extension: (b) cost of armies 'of occupation after the coming into 'force of .tho peace treaty; (c) cost of

supplementary thereto.

Canada has minor olalm in addition

to its general claims under the _ni-st priority clause. This is for the coat of the Canadian forces on the Rhine during the period- of the armiiitice.
