MOVES TO BAR NEW ZEALAND BUTTER BEATEN With Opposition Splitting, Both Amendments Are Voted Down in House By CHARLES BISHOP Special to Tbt Wuuilptv Trttmn from IS Southam Ni Bureau, Ottawa) OTTAWA, March 28 Somewhat laborious discussion on trade relations between Canada and the Anti pod 08 what they are and what any, change should be made ended in the House last night with a series of The Conservative sub amendment and the amendment from the U.F.A. group wre rejected In turn, and then the government's pro posal to get on with supply was sanctioned.

The subject, has been springing up recurrently since the session opened, and it has had all the earmarks of a budget debate, except that it Is not on the budget The debate, however, has been on tariff principles and on the relative benefits of protection and low tariff applied to industry and agriculture. It is clear from the discussions that, while trade within the Empire is warmly embraced In theory, it en counters difficulty In practice, especially If the commodities exported by one dominion compete with the same commodities produced in another. Such eflects were tne oasis or ins criticism of the New Zealand arrangement and. as well, of its parent the Australian treaty. The U.F.A.

proposal was to abrogate the treaty entirely, not so much because of Its own effects directly, as the effects of the New Zealand extension. The definite declaration thnt the government has no intention whatever of doing away with the treaty, waa the main pronouncement of the minister of finance. Mr. Dunning. His speech and Mr.

Bennett's reply provided the features of the debate. The minister went over the ground exhaustively. His argument broadly, was that Canada is not going to abrogate the Austrian treaty because It is a good thing, the dominion having much the longer end of it In the period of the treily operation, Canada has sold to Australia $6.000,000 worth of goods more than it bought and. in the case of New Zealand, Just under $30,000,000 more. Mr.

Bennett's contribution was equally exhaustive. He began on the effects upon the Canadian dairying industry of the New Zealand extension. Figures were given to show enormous lmDortations of butter. while butter and cheese production declined correspondingly. The Conservative sub amendment, to revise the treaty, was defeated bjf 10S to Bl.

and after that the U.F.A. proposal for Its abrogation fell down hard, with 18 for and 141 against In one case the third party with th government nd in the other the op position lined up with the ministry. Auction Sales By w. h. Mcpherson Bailiffs Sale Printing Machinery Saturday.
