During recent years American fish ing vessels have had practically un- limited rights of entry to Canadian ports from the ing grounds in the north Atlantic. Under the new regu- lations they can enter “only for shel- ter, for repairing damages, purchas- ing wool and obtaining water, and for no other purpose whatsoever.” The list of these emergency condi- tions to which right of entry Is re- stricted grows out of a strict applica- tion of the fishing treaty of 1818 be- tween Great Britain and the United States. —_— | 5.0 VOTERS HERE TO DISLSS ISSUES Election and Action on Con- stitutional Amendment Meeting Features.
