Page Iwo Premier King Criticized On Berlin Visit (ec oonds Policy Gf Collective Security IMPOSE SANCTIONS TORONTO, Ont., July 15.— Criticizing Premier King for paying a “friendly” call on a violator of the Covenant of the League of Nations, the National Committee of the League Against War and Fas- cism has issued a statement calling upon him to return to the position he held in 1935. that Canada must join with other British dominions to make the Gritish Commonwealth of Nations “a vital force for the maintenance of peace by strength- ening the policy of collective secur ity through a strone League of Na- tions. ‘We demand.’ the call continues, “the jmmediate imposition of econ- omic sanctions against the agsres- Sor powers Germany and Italy. We demand immediate resumption of trade relations with the lesitimate government of Spam.” The league executive expresses concern over what swyvent on behind the closed doors of the Imperial Conference and states “the free democratic people of Canada antic- ipate a voice in shaping the policies of their country and rightfully de- mand to know what commitments were made on behalf of Canada at that gatherings. ‘With three aggressor powers— Tialy, Germany and Japan—driving to war wtih incredible speed and boldness, the recommendation for a policy of eo-operation and eoneilia- tion and the separation of the gov- ernment from peace treaties is not only impossible of achieyment but is Suicidal to peace. “Sueh a policy would mean drop- ping the principle of collective se- eurity upon which the League of Nations was founded, and givin= full rein to those powers which, hay- ine no respect for international law, are able to understand the lan- guage of force.” Annie Buller Touring B.C.
