CANADIAN ELECTION
MAY BE HELD THIS YEAR LIBERAL MANDATE QUESTIONED Reed. S a.m. OTTAWA, Thursday. There is more than a passing chance that a Federal election will be held this year in Canada, and that the Imperial Conference will be made a special occasion for it. There will be two conferences, one to deal with economic questions of the Empire, and the other with constitutional questions The Prime Minister, the Right Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, the Hon. E. La Pointe, Attorney-General, and the Hon. C. A. Dunning, Minister of Finance, have been selected to attend these in September, but an election upheaval in the meantime may change Canada’s delegation. The Conservatives have raised the question of the mandate of the present Liberal Government to appear as the spokesman of the Canadian people, and the Premier may go to the country, so that whoever represents Canada at these conferences may not labour under any qualifying handicap, and will be able to speak with authority for Canada on the far-reaching fiscal reforms which the conference is supposed to devise for the fuller development of Imperial trade.
