A GRAVE DANGER
FEARS FOR OTTAWA. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) LONDON, May 5. Sir Vestey in a lengthy message to the Commons purports to show that British interests are in grave danger’ of being jeopardised at Ottawa by the: endeavours of the Dominion home producers to secure control of Biitain s supplies o 7 imported, meat by quota* or prohibitive tariffs. Vestey, though ■a supporter of Empire preference anticipates that hotels at Ottawa will be. thro”ged with opportunist advocates: of the Dominions' producers, at the, expense of British people. He asks ■how many delegates will be imbued with a determination to prevent the exploitation ,of British sentiment and *' lfetruarding of export. How many on the other baud will eomnive at, if not actively support, a ramp to, reduce supplies and increase the cost in Britain of meat, blister, and fruit to. benefit those they represent.
