Speak- ing of the late President, Warren G.

Dr. Taylor pointed out the differ- ences in the governments of the sister td , but placed ial emphasis on the things in which we have so much in commom, such as language, our religious life and social ideals.

Knfoker- Front Street, Q T ountries in the past and are caus- ing grave concern among the states: men of both today, Dr. Taylor saic in part: "The status of the United States has changed greatly since the war. Formeérjy eome British aristocrats perhaps regarded your representa- tives as justics, but now they realize how erronevus was this impression, The British government today recog: nizes the United States as a great and powerful nation. 'So has tho situation of Canada changed gince the war. There seem- ed to be, at one time, a sentiment that the Dominion would eventually become @ Dart of the United States, Of course it is undorstogd now that this would never be true. Should Canada desire her independence, England would never try to hold her for she could not. However, there id a tie that binds the wanle British Empire together and which does away with any thought that Canada would desire independence. it is that great feeling of loyalty and de- votion to the mother coun'ry. "During the past century there have been many instanées when both counsrics 'might have had war, but the causes of the controversies have been eliminated by courts of arbitra- tion. Such a settlement is better than war. ' There never yet was a boundary wihtich was worth a war be- tween sister countries. "Especially in education are we closely associated. There is constant educational play between the two countries, students coming back and forth from one to the otirer. The religious life iz also largely the same and our social ideals are the same, especially a feeling of confidence ir the future of the North American continent. The constant iater- change ol citizens is another great point in common. "We are logether facing a gral problem, that of the yellow races. Since it is impossible for the whitg man to compete with the standards ! of living of the yellow races, it ia better to keep the North American continent a wiite man's land and we I are determined to do this. That is the sorest problem which Canada and the United States have today.
