CANADA AND THE HALIBUT TREATY The signing of the Halibut Treaty Wetween Canada and the United States, following the controversy over the Lausanne Treaty brings the fol- lowing interesting -editorial- comment from the Winpipeg Free Press: The Halibut Treaty was an exer- cise by-Canads-of-the-right i gt;-make- a.tr aty affecting purely Canadian in- terests without involving tho entire diplomatic machinery of the Empire. A good many difficulties stood in the way of exercising this right but they have all been in turn overcome. It involved the tendering of direct advice by the Canadian Government to the King as to the appointment of a plenipotentiary. Tho pundits said that this could not be done; that there was no precedent for it: no constitu: tlonal provision covering it. Nevertheless the thing was done. The King was advised by his Canadian Ministers to appoint a Canadian pleni- potentiary to negotiate a treaty be- tween the Dominion of, Canada only and the United States. Tho treaty was duly negotiated, and was signed on behalf of Canada by Mx, Lapointe and on behalf of the United States by Mr, C. E. Hughes, eThen' the United States Senate in ratifying the treaty added a rider which, though a monstrosity of verbal * inexactitude, meant that the obliga- Mons which Canada had entered into under the treaty must be interpreted as binding upon every part of the Em- pire, . This, of course, was precisely what Canada did not want. She did not claim the right to make a treaty which would involve Great Britain or any of the other Rritish Dominions to com- mitments entered into on behalt of Canadian interests, The Canadian Parllament how- ever, declined to accept the situation thus created. It ratified thd original treaty without the Senate reservation, This put it up to the United States. If they wanted the treaty they must ratify the treaty as it was agreed to by the negotiators. .Otherwise no treaty; and no protection to the hall - but fisheries of the North Pacific. Nothing happened for fourteen months: and then the U.S. Senate quietly passed the treaty, dropping the Jones reservation, Here we have a completely worked out example of the treaty-making pow- ors of the Dominions. Canada initiat- ed these negotiations; carried them on by a negotiator appointed by the King upon the advice of his Canadian Ministers; ratified them on behalf of Canada-only. The other parts of the Emptre Great Britain, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, are not af- fected in the slightest measure by this treaty, The right of each British nation to make its own treatios, affecting its direct interests, is of course expressly reeognized by the resolution adopted at the last Imperial Conference which defined the very procedure by which these treaties are to be negotiated. *But those to whom this develop- ment has been unwelcome have been comforting htemselves with the hope that this right, agreed among the na- 1 Senate reservations to the Treaty of Versailles directed against Canadian membership in the League of Nations, and the incorporation of the same hos. tile and jealous attitude in the draft scheme for the World Court recently fathered by Senator Lodge In the U.S. Senate. WHEN AMERICA VISITS WEMBLEY Tho publication department of the Wembley Exhibition necessary to explain American pressions not in uso im England for the edification of American visitors. In humorous fashion it proceeds as follows: ox: anG Rubberneck wagon charabanc, Tuxedo evoning dress, Table Talker wireless speaker, People in Great Britain, it says, will grow accustomed to these and other similar expressions when the Ameri- can delogdtes begin to arrive for the International Advertising Conventicn, which s to be held in the Conference Halls of the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley, next July, There will be about two thousand of them, ano, to prevent any unnec sary misunderstanding, cach visitor ts being provided with a glossary of Anglo-American slang. The idea originated with a half-face- tious suggestion at a luncheon-party. An American who was present chane- ed to overhear it. Within a very few weeks the glossary had become an* ac cepted fact all over the United States, and thousands of applications came pouring into the Convention offices in London from intending visitors. This little guide, says the preface, is not intended to be comprehensive, but perhaps slightly instructive to both English and Americans. An Englishman rarely says, Fancy loud that, although he frequently reiter- ates Really, punctuated by an occa- sional, Quite. Don't tell an Englishman you will care to have one. In either case he will probably say Yes. If you are ad- dressing a Scotsman, don't trouble to think. A glance at the glossary affords some idea of the conversational pit- falls that the American come to give London the once-over will have to/ face. He may, for instance, find some lit- tle difficulty in convincing the British waiter that when he asks for a high- ball, he really means a whisky and soda; and one can picture the nild flutter of-astonishment-of-the-tng lis man on being told to shoot getton with what he has to say or to hear the guests at his tea-party described as lounge-lzards, Cop, Candy, guy, cracker, are all already familiar terms in Great Britain, but there is trouble in store for the first daring individual who re- fers to an Englishwoman as a jane. Some of the bright gems of the col- lection are: Runt small-sized person. Pull down earn, Handout charitable gift. Derby bowler hat, Hobo tramp. Jeans trousers, Smooth guy plausible fellow. Hotel Ufe will present by far tho greatest-dificultios-for-tho American guest. Maitre d hotels are always re- ferred to as captains in the States, a term that may at first be slightly re- sented in Great Britain, When an American wants pancakes he asks for Flap-Jacks, * for dls- cults, says the guide. The-frst visitor to ask the bell- hop (page-boy) to show him the shoe-shine parlor 4s likely, in his own words, to get: the frozen mitt.
