HOPES UNREALISED
AMERICAN PAPERS COMMENT The New York Evening Post commcnts that "it. would appear that the high hopcs ongendered by the opening session of the Ottawa Conference are not likely to be fully realised. The obstacles to full accord hetween the Dominions on the one hand and Britain on the other hand have proved too formidable to he swept aside in one grand gesture of goodwill. "On questions other than those centring on tariffs and trade preferences, the worlc of the conference is pa*oving even less productive. Its currency report, in effect, hands the whole problem of the gold standard over to the World Eeonomic Conference; but this is not surprising. The conference's action was elearly foreseen. Not even the British Commonwealth of Nations can reach a decision on such matters independently of the attitude of the rest of the world."
