that It will bo tor one year subject to ex-

tho Ifght of naming a counsellor or di-
plomat as the United States representa-
tive rather thorn expert While no objec-
tion has bten mado to tho appointment It
Is believed to account In part for Canadas
delay in sending her expert to Washing
tern No mention la mado in tho conven-
tion of tbo killing of tho weals in caio
Canada and Great Britain do not coop
orate It is pointed out that Hussla and
Japan could not adopt retaliatory s eps
against Canada as they havo no border In-
terests
Any action against Canada therefore
must bn taken by the United Stntea alone
