Canada Seen As Political
Power In British Empire
WINNIPEG, Sept. 18. (/P)— In the
opinion of C. M. Maclnnes, profes
sor of colonial and economic history
at the University of Bristol, Eng.,
nothing can stop the North Ameri
can continent from becoming even
tually the chief influence of the fu
ture. He expressed that view when
he stopped here recently on his way
to Calgary, his birth place.
As to Canada’s future he said: “I
feel that in the years to come there
is every likelihood of Canada becom
ing the center of the British Com
monwealth of Nations, with the ne
cessary political power transferred
to her.
“There may be some who would ad
vocate that Canada should go for
ward as an independent nation, out
side the British Commonwealth. I
fail to see this line of reasoning,
for the fact that Canada is within
the empire, appears to be one of the
chief reasons of her strength.”
Prof. Maclnnes lost the sight of
both eyes as a result of wounds re
ceived in the World War.
