Hall meeting in Washington, D. C.,
that “I consider it is for the wel-

nwhile, recent dispatches from
show that Canadian citizens
are beginning to ask more and more
often, when ia the United States
coming in? Canadian officials try
to keep the undercurrent of civilian
popular opinion from coming out
into the open, as they feel American
opinion is already favorable to the
AJbed cause, and that any propa-
ganda would inevitably boomerang.
