Manitoba free press Winnipeg thursday. September 2 1920 executive unto of from pase recited that the provinces de ired a Federal Union with the Crown a Constitution similar in Prin Ciple to that of the United re that such a Union would conduct the welfare of the provinces and Romore the interests of the British Constitution unalterable the of the fed a i raiment to alter the cons Titu of Dominion sir James said any Ion on a supreme legis my in a written Constitution creates that body with regard the mod of modifying that con is a Fetter on the Freedom the legislature yet such Irick fro Dom does not prevent state . For instance the United Rit aies can Only Amend its Federal Constitution by consent of three fourths of the states composing it mid yet no one denies that it is a Sovereign nation. So the fact that the Dominion cannot Amend its Constitution i not inconsistent with com plete National and enter National status. A self governing nation Many of the statesmen of King Ianul and of the dominions speak now of Canada As a self governing nation in the same class As the United King Dom and both of course within the Empire and practice and precedent Are beginning to justify it. That is consistent with the recital in the. Act that Canada was intended to have a a Constitution similar in principle to i that of the United kingdom but it j is inconsistent with sections 55, 56 and. 57, had they not fallen into Dos i etude. They provide that the gov prior general May Reserve a Bill for j he approval of the and that the King in Council May disallow an act. The time limit is years under these Only one act was disallowed and that was of a. Domestic character and on the suggestion of the Dominion Trovor Merit i in s7s. Then the sane mid in cilia tory method was introduced of representations and communications about any act of the dominions which might injuriously affect. The Liniev its of tilt or of any important part of it. And satisfactory adjust j merits have usually resulted. H May i be urged that the very existence of such sections win cause a govern ment which passed an offending act i to be More reasonable in repealing Lor modifying it. The big stick May j compel compliance but it Doc not create harmonious feeling without which the Empire will fade away. 1 Keith in his Imperial i nity and the is certain that j actual disallowance of aws when i passed May be regarded As now of i Solete in Case of. Responsible govern if these sections Are now in appropriate and obsolete and the methods of free interchanging of views Nyrl resulting adjustments has become the settled Rule they might be modified accordingly and a Plaus Ible argument would then be taken from the agitator of separa the privy Council judgment as1 proof of Canada s changing status sir James quotes lord Hal Dane in the Russell Case when he said the Empire has developed and More and More the principle 01" self government especially in of criminal jurisdiction is being allow and that Canada has Home Rule and i am not disposed to go Back on Bonar Law als o said ii parliament. Dominion Home. Rule Means the right of decide their Owr. he then showed that the former supremacy of Imperial legislation Over that of the dominions was be coming a discarded principle. In 1911 the Imperial copyright act provided that it was not to apply to a self governing Dominion unless declared by the legislature of such dominions to be in Force there. Sir James adds1 if the Equality of. Status in the British Empire of the self governing nations is a reality the doctrine of supremacy of Imperial legislation must be Laid aside As an outworn garment the Don t be afraid to ask the officials of this Bank Are glad to explain to you anything you do not know about banking.

He expressed no opinion himself but said that when Canadian lawyers United in asking for the abolition of such appeals in civil cares the prac Tice would end. Dealing with to evolution of treaty making Powers he referred to the establishment of the Canadian department of extern no affairs in. Woo. The reciprocity agreement of 1911 was negotiated by Canadian ministers directly with the u. S. Government. In pursuance of a Reso Lution passed at. The Imperial con Ference in 1911, British treaties now always contain a reservation that they do not apply to the dominions without their consent. Representatives on the league then Canada and the other Dom Inions became members of the league of nations there was some doubt whether they could have representatives on the Council. Sir Robert Borden obtained from presi Dent Wilson Premier Clemenceau and Premier l Loyd George a definite written Assurance that the Domin ions would have this right. Sir James adds it is submitted that As to the president is entrusted the Power of dealing with foreign s tates. When he consented to the admission of the do Mir for.

Imperial conference of 1917, and while action was deferred till after the War the con Ference went on record As favouring recognition of the right of the Dom Inions and India to an adequate i voice in foreign policy and in foreign relations and should provide effective arrangements for continuous consultation in All important matters j common. Imperial concern and for such necessary concerted action founded on consultation As the several governments May deter Asquith View contradicted sir James proceeded of this1 and the necessities of the War there evolved an Imperial Cabinet which is to meet annually to Confer about foreign policy and matters connected therewith and come to decisions in regard to them which subject to the econ Rol of their own parliaments they . The responsible Heads of the governments of. The Empire will then severely execute. Thus in j a few years Converse of or. I Asquith s View is being transmitted into a political fact. It must be noticed however that the Imperial Cabinet has no Power to carry its decisions into effect. Participating governments Are expected to do that fold no ordinarily will. Will this policy of an Imperial conference and an Imperial cab inet develop into an organic Union of the self governing nations and India with a common representative body empowered to legislate and an executive Council responsible to that body of elected representatives or into a league of British executive authority vanishing to the signing of the peace treaty he said that in International Law the Empire has a unitary existence consequently though the dominions became orig Inal members of the league of nations they Werp not parties to the treaty of Versailles because they had not been in inter National Law As Sovereign states. He added As a. Political fact the legislative supremacy of the British parliament Over the dominions has disappeared iatid1 the theory of executive Unity of the Empire is also commencing vanish. While the peace conference adhered to the principle of the Unity of the Empire Cor the purpose of War and , they acceded to the demands of the dominions for separate representation in the league to guard the interests of those lawyers urged to Public service sir Janice in dealing with the affairs of the Canadian bar association suggested that incorporation of the association would bring Many advantages. He also urged the Law yers to undertake their share of nubile service. He said through a eneral neglect of that service in our country of popular suffrage our people Are in danger of the despotism not so much of individuals As of classes organized on the principle of every one for himself and the Devil take the hinder most which results As the de in would have it in his league of British nations a league in being Cave Imperial relationships and can Ada s part therein were discussed at tonight s gathering of the Canadian bar association. The sneakers were Ari count Cave a lord Justice of the court of appeals of great Britain and Hon. W. E. Raney attorney general for Ontario. Lord Cave s re Ference to Imperial relations came at the end of an address As a former Home Secretary and so had been Able to present an intimate View of British War legislation. The league of nations lord Cave was a grand Conception but much time and Effort must be expended before it came to full fruition. Meantime there was in exist ence the league of British nations. And the Bond which United its great component units was no Chain of possessions but the hand clasp of men. It was founded on two principles the autonomy of each and the voluntary co operation of All. And while we Are True to these Princi Ples to each other and to our King can prevail against or. Raney spoke of Canada s growth to nationhood suggesting a reconstitution of the judicial committee of the e privy Council with jurisdiction to consider questions arising Between the different nations represented. The minister of Justice presided. Canada s part in War lord Cave opened with feeling Tri Bute to the part which Canada had played in the War. Making the sense of brotherhood deeper and More vibrant. He gave a. Review of the War i Nim Trency legislation in Aiu and of the part which members of the and bar. Had. Played. Lord Cave remarked in pass British peer turns ranch Man in Canada Viscount Arbuthnott Viscount Arbuthnott new head of the ancient scotch House is now a ranch j owner in Canada. Tho 7iew Viscount and his wife own the spotted Luke in Alberta and Are How residing there. He. Recently succeeded to the title. Ing Resolute in adopting of Mili tary service which we ad6pied just in time and without which the War would have been principles eclipsed lord Cave was of the. Opinion that the British government made an error at the commencement of the War in. the declaration of London is guide for contraband. Iowa Cunys when not Only armies but whole made War. And when Success or failure depended As much upon spirit As upon prowess in arms meticulous rules As to what was absolute and what was conditional contraband or As to was and what was not a continuous voyage destined for the enemy Sim ply would not work. In saying lord Cave added. I do not intend for a moment depreciate the value of the established rules of International Law or of Weil considered agreements operating in War time. England kept her agreements and observed Ali the rules by which she was bound. T3ven Germany kept some of them and there was no ble Liger Etc. Nation which did not pay at least a verbal homage to theurin. Caples of International . It can not e denied that those principles suffered in this War a partial eclipse but i still think they were of service. I Hope and believe that with the and vent of a. More reasonable spirit and tinder the fostering influence of th-3 league of nations they will speedily renew their strength and i can conceive of no better augury than the agreement recently framed at the Hague for the establishment of a permanent court of International relations with dominions lord Cave referred to the effect of upon the constitutional re lations Between the old country and the dominions. For a lie said some of the Ablest states men of the Cham and others whose names will occur considering How Best a. Further link could be forged Between the Central and do minion governments which should be neither so stiff Gall nor so weak As to Oren under a Strain. It May be that the problem has been solved quietly and almost unconsciously fas our habit is by the establishment of the Imperial War Cabinet As an effective Council of the Empire. That As Sembly of the leading statesmen of the self governing parts of the Empire first called together in lot for the purpose of discussing the conduct of the War and some of the higher issues of Imperial policy proved to be of so much service both to its members and to the countries concerned that it determined at the instance of the Brit ish prime minister to keep it in being. And so other meetings took place at a later crisis of the War and again when the terms of peace were under consideration. The Ai first it Xmas nothing an Una qualified Success and to Many of us it seems possible that the Imperial War Cabinet May if the Imperial conference should so deter Imine drop its Middle name and. While retaining wholly voluntary and consultative May become in world affairs the Centre of the autonomous nations of an Imperial common wealth. League of British nations the league of lord Cave concluded is a great Concep Tion but much time Effort must be expended before it comes to full fruition. In the meantime there is a league in being. A league Strong effective and peace Loving nurtured in Independence skied in self government ambitious for no world Empire but Only for a world the of the British nations.

And official representative of the american bar association dealt with the constitutional aspects of the league of nations. I Don t he declared that those people who contend against the Power of the u. S.

Hampton Carson Haa requested him to attend the meeting in Ottawa. What was the covenant of the league of nations asked or. Taft. It was a partnership agreement made up of kinds of stipulations the first of which were self restraining. They bound the nations to certain restraints calculated to prevent or reduce the chances of War. Then there were agreements directed to wards penalize in nations which failed to restraining covenants. These penalties must be imposed by the United action of the members As there was no executive court with the Power to enforce them. There was nothing but con science and Good Faith t o see that they were carried out. The strength Portne league of nations said or. Taft must depend on the spirit of Coop ration and Good Faith. If that was lacking it did not matter How Strong the convention were made the league must fail. Election will not decide Issue. Or. Taft said that the result of the e presidential election in the u. S. Would not necessarily mean the decision of the people of the u. S re Garding the league of nations. There were other issues involved in the election. It that to enter the league the . Would have to part with some of her Sovereign pow ers. This Contention to disputed the fact at the matter was that a sovereignty which could not enter in to agreement with other nations was a minor and ought to have a guar Dian. Any nation living with other nations must have the Power to enter into agreements with them. A Sov Ereign had the right to enter into agreements and he had also the right to if his conscience would permit it. It would be a great interference with the usefulness of the . And also the usefulness other neighbors if the . Might not enter into agreements with other nations to perform Cert non acts in consideration of their performing the same or other a Sovereign state _ Hon. A. E. Raney attorney general of Ontario spoke strongly in favor of Canada undertaking the Fuh. Responsibility of. A Sovereign state within the Empire. He said under the new order which is now will in the future Amend her own Constitution and make her own treaties. The issues of peace and War will be determined both actually and technically at Ottawa and the governor general of Canada will be appointed by the Kin gon the nomination of his majesty Council for Canada.
