Canada lias been the best customer of the United States, but now much more of her trade will go to Great Britain, Brit-ain, A S THE Presidential campaign drew toward Its close major parties nnllmbered their biggest guns and the oratorical battle grew loud and fierce. For the Republicans Repub-licans Calvin Coolldge opened the week with an address at a rally In Madison Square garden. New Tork city. He came out squarely and forcibly for the policies of President Pres-ident Hoover and said he was convinced con-vinced the public welfare required that gentleman's re-election. The former President attacked the Democratic Dem-ocratic leadership In congress for attempting raids on the federal treasury, assailed Franklin Roosevelt Roose-velt for falling to announce his stand on the soldier bonus question, ques-tion, and warmly praised Mr. Hoo-Ter Hoo-Ter for bis moves to maintain sound money." Former Senator Jim heed of Missouri, selected by the Democrats Demo-crats to reply to Mr. Hoover's De Moines speech, went to that Iowa city and attacked the President In his well-known scathing manner, dwelllne at length on hnth hl poll dead- mist, antf talked about the coming world economic conference. Premier llerriot of France also was In London, conferring with Mr. MacDonald on Germany's demands for arms equality.

He clared the Chief Executive's dress was "a series of Incorrect statements and unjustifiable deductions," deduc-tions," and especially contradicted Mr. Hoover's statement that only the steps taken by the administration administra-tion kept the country from going off the gold standard. Senator L. J. Dickinson of Iowa, himself no mean orator and denouncer, de-nouncer, answered Reed on that gold standard matter, accusing the Mlssourian of flagrantly misstating the facts and citing figures that he said upheld the assertion made by Mr. Hoover. The President himself, still In his new fighting mood, made his second sec-ond big speech Saturday evening in Cleveland, and there was a chance that be would yield to the Importunities of his followers In the Middle and Far West and deliver de-liver several more addresses before election day. His opponent. Governor Gov-ernor Roosevelt, was busy in his own state during the week but found time to make a radio address over a nation wide hookup In reply to a questionnaire on the subject of federal relief to those In distress. Increased appropriations for public works as an aid to employment, unemployment un-employment insurance, . and child welfare. It was announced that Governor Roosevelt's next trip would be through the South and Middle West, though why he should go Into the southern states Is a puzzle. SENATOR DAVID A. REED of Pennsylvania, who went to Europe Eu-rope In the summer at the direction of President Hoover principally to find out the attitude atti-tude of Great Britain Brit-ain and France on the Manchurian question, returned and Immediately reported re-ported at the White House.

Man-churia. The Chinese National government has announced that It accepts the Lytton report as a basis for negotiations, nego-tiations, but a large group of Influential Influ-ential and powerful Chinese has declared de-clared against It, asserting that "It Is suicidal for China to place further fur-ther reliance In the League of Nations, Na-tions, which Is exposed to impotence impo-tence and Inability to uphold right and Justice." rviCTATOR JOSEF STALIN has taken steps to scotch the plot to bring about his downfall, which was mentioned In this column some weeks ago. The Communist party of Russia has expelled from Its ranks as traitors Leo Kemenev and Gregory Zinovlev, two once power ful friends of Lenin, and they were locked up In Lublanka prison. Twenty Twen-ty other Bolsheviks were ousted along with them. Kamenev was formerly commissar of the Moscow district and president of the peo pie's commissar and is a brother-in-law of Leon Trotzky, the foe of Stalia Zinovlev used to be com missar of the Leningrad district and president of the Communist Inter natlonale. Both were accused of plotting against Stalin In 1f27 but were forgiven when they abjectly apologised. The degree of the cen tral executive committee of the Communist party says that both commissars were discovered by the Gaypayou or secret police to be falsifying accounts In order to com promise the work of the party's control con-trol committee. l?UROPEAN powers are still !n- - tent on bringing about disarmamenteach disarma-menteach for the other fellow and their various plans seem as far apart as ever. s Norman II.
