The Premier, in the House to-night, read a lengthy cable that was received by the Governor from the Secretary of state foi the Colonics, giving a summary of the resolutions passed at,the Paris Keonomic Conference. The Allied representatives affirm that after forcing the war on Europe the tral Powers are now preparing for an economic contest, which is to not only survive the re-establishment of peace, but will, at that moment, attain its full scope and intensity. On the face of this knowledge the Allied Governments consider that it has became their duty to adopt all measures requisite to secure economic independence. They, therefore, recommend their Governments:— (1) To prohibit their own subjects, and all persons residing in their territories, from carrying on trade with inhabitants of enemy countries. (2) To prohibit importation into their territories of all goods originating in enemy countries. (3) To devise means of cancelling, unconditionally, contracts entered into with enemy subjects and injurious to the Allied Nations interested. The Conference also passed resolutions pledging the Allies to take steps to establish permanent measures of mutual assistance and collaboration. The final resolution is as follows: '■' Whereas, for purpose of common defence against the enemy, the Allied Powers have agreed to adopt a common economic policy on the lines laid down in the resolutions passed, and where, as it is recognised that the effectiveness of this policy depends absolutely upon the resolutions being put into operation forthwith, the representatives of the Allied Governments undertake to recommend to their respective Governments that steps be taken without delay to fulfil all measures, whether temporary or permanent, that arc requisite for giving full and complete effect to this policy, and to communicate to each other the decisions arrived at to attain their object."
