cy of the Canadian reciprocity
hill today. Mr. Norris declared

bill, providing the paper clausa
of the measure should not ho in
force until the president pro
claims that wood, wood pulp and
paper, nr" admitted from all parti
<T Canada free of duty, would
postpone imh finitely the date of
application of the treaty.
“That was what it was intend
ed to do.” remarked Senator
Stone.

amendment was inconsistent with
the purpose ot the agreement.
