Equal Prominence to Union Jack Urged in Canadian Parliament.Ottawa, Ont., Feb. 28.—An echo of annexation talk was heard in the Canadian house, when a resolution was offered by Major Beattie, conservative member of London, Ont., declaring that “regulations should be issued providing that v/herever a foreign flag is displayed, except by the representative of a foreign government, a British flag shall be displayed in a more prominent position.Major Beattie declared too many American flags were flown in Canada by summer residents and tourists, who whirled through the country with their automobiles decorated with the stars and stripe3, but without a British flag being anywhere displayed. This, he said, irritated many Canadians, who thought such visitors either should abstain from flaunting an alien flag or should give the flag of the dominion equal prominence.
