Mr Amery said that lie had seen Press reports of a speech by the Prime Minister of Ontario as to the proposed Empire conference. This was a conference of business interests and was hardly one in which the British Government could take the initiative, hut they would always hope to co-operate with any other Governments in the Empire in schemes for the development of trade.
