prospective war MUNRO DOCTRINE AFFORDS PROTECTION FOR CANADA BRITAIN'S POLICY PACIFIC
-By Telegraph — CopjTight).
(Rec. 7.50 p.m.) Toronto, Sept. 12. The Canadian delegate, addressing the British Commonwealth Relations Conference to-day said that Canada was inclined to deperid for a greater degree of protection upon the Munro Doctrine than upon the British fleet so that it should not be subpect to European conquest. The British delegate agreed with the previous Canadian speakers that the Dominions were more interested in the tranquility of peace than in European squabbles. His opinion was that if the British Empire stood for war, while the League of Nations stood for peace, people would put the league before the Empire. He agreed that the Empire should look to the Dominions for aid in the time of war. The Empire's policy, however, was pacific. If Britain entered into war it would be under the covenant of the League and therefore it would be a League rather than an Empire war.
