& CANADA MAY HALT BORDER RUM FLOW .Move to Bar Expo:iing Is Seen as in Line With Brit- ain’s Good-Will Policy. BY WILLIAM RUFUS SCOTT. Canadisn advices, on the eve of {.Premier Macdonald’s departure Priday, repeated the information given in dis- | patches during his visit in Washington that a bill would be introduced in the Dominion Parliament to ban exports of liquors for beverage purposes to the United States Whether this change in the official Canadian attitude on co-operation with i the Washington Government in efforts to_control border smuggling was the subject of discussion with the premier {'in Ottawa has not becn stated authori- i tatively, but prohibition circles here point out that developments in Canada and in Empire policy before Macdonald’s visit_laid the groundwork for the pro- posed legislation. Ministry is Held Divided. The Canadian ministry is reported divided over the desirability of such a w, even while agreeing to submit the e to Parliament. Moreover, the { move does not represent any taking of sides, or changing of aides on the liquor question by the Canadian government, | according to the understanding here. { 1t is interpreted as simply & move to i separate the Canadian government from | any implication of sympathy for those who make Canada a base of operations ! for violating the Ilfquor laws of the United States. There is nothing new in the theory underlying the proposed law. For in- stance, the United States would not per- mit any one to use the territory of this country as a base of operations for con- dueting an attack on Canada, Mexico or i any other country. Nor will the pro- | posed law necessarily mention the United States specifically. It may state merely that the exporting of beverage liquors o any country, the laws of which for- bid imports of the kind, is prohibited in Canada. That would cover the border situation between Canada and the United States, and, of course, it is this border which is prompting the bill. Back of the expressed intention of | introducing the bill are several factors, | Within Canada a considerable senti- ment has been reflected in the press for a ban on liquor exports to the ted States on the ground that mm\gm the Canadian government cannot mve anything undone to restrain those in i territories who are deliberately \101",— ing the laws of a friendly power. Cabinet Notes Sentiment, The Canadian cabinet is said to have taken note of this sentiment, and, as- suming that a ban cannot be imposed by executive order, will put the issue up to Parliament. The fate the bill will meet in this Winter's session is problematical. It may turn out that Parliament will refuse to pass the bill. In that event the cabinet will consider its duty done. If the bill does pass, the government will have a mandate to act in & more aggressive way in co-operat- ing with American enforcement efforts. Win or lose, the bill yet may become an election issue in Canada. There is an empire factor, however, which is considered weighty. The ac- tion of Sir Esme Howard, British Am- bassador to the United States, in re- stricting the importation of liquors for use 1n the embassy here, coming as his action did when Canadian official sen- timent was distinctly cool toward the American prohibition unit's pleas for greater co-operation, now is appraised as of far greater significance than one envoy's personal views. Sir Esme is credited with having seen a new era in prohibition enforcement beginning with the advent to the presis dency of Herbert Hoover. There would be four years, and pos- sibly eight years, of a far more deter- mined handling of the liquor problem than had been attempted up to 1929, according to this version, and the ac- tion of the British Ambassador ranged not merely himself, but England, in a BEWARE THE THE EVENING striking alignment with the new en- forcement policy. Discrepancy Seen in Europe. In Europe, the discrepancy between the positions of the British and Can- adian governments was noted more par- ticularly than it was in America. The Canadian position then was one of con- cern over the I'm Alone sinking inci- dent, and a visit of American prohibi- tion officials to Ottawa, seeking closer co-operation, early this year, was met with a refusal. Europe further weighed the situation in the light of England's present policy of not taking any major decision without consulting the domin- fons. The liquor issue seemed to in- volve a reversal of this situation, in which a dominion was taking a posi- tion independently of the mother coun- try on what might become a major dispute. Sir Esme’s action, considered from this international perspective, is judged to have had much more than a local significance. The building up of good- will between England and the United States seemingly might be impeded by | an_indifferent, neutral or friendly atti- tude toward lquor smuggling. Sir Esme created a stir by the move he made to prevent any irritation over the issue, even going to the extent of limit- ing his own rights as an envoy. Now Canada i8 developing the same general | policy. ‘The Macdonald labor ministry sig- nalized its coming into power by in- stituting an investigation of the liquor situation in England, not, it is believed, with prohibition in view, but to see if social and economic gains may be made through further control of the traffic.
