CANADIAN  RIOTERS DID
NOT SET WITLEY ON  FIRE
LONDON, June 16 (Canadian
Associated Press).—A strenuous
denial is given to the statement
that rioters at the Canadian
military camp at Witney deliberately set the  town  in a blaze.
It is certainly true, that when
the seriousness of the fire was
appreciated that practically the
whole camp turned out in an attempt  to  extinguish  the flames.
The long drought and the inflammable mess of • materials
made their efforts futile. The
long line of huts today present
the spectacle of a mere heap of
blackened rubbish. Several ships
have lately left England after as
many as six postponements due
to labor troubles in Liverpool..
BROTHERHOOD OFFICIALS
SAY   PROPOSAL   IS   FAIR
Railway Officials and Senator Robert
. son,   Minister of  Labor,  Approve
Statement
WINNIPEG, June 16.—After a con
feyence which lasted all day yesterday
the following .statement has been
handed out for publication jointly by
the officers representing all the railway compnnies having headquarters
In Winnipeg, International officers of
six great railway brotherhoods, the
minister of labor of tho Dominion and
tho representatives of the different
inin and metal manufacturers around
whom tho sympathetic striko lias
Waged for tin* past four weeks.
As lho International officers of tho
brotherhoods who have been striving
for mediation between the employees
and employers of the metal trades
have decided that mediation is impossible It was thought by all concerned
lhat the public should bo acquainted
with the definition of collective bargaining as interpreted hy the railways
and their employees.
Employers'  Position.
The following statement was issued
hy tho employers, showing their willingness to recognize the trades unions
and  lo meet with the latter for tho
'*, purpose of collective bargaining:
l]    ."The undersigned learn that certain
,1 railroad employees have taken part in
j tlie sympathetic strike, using as justt-
1 flcatlon for their act the claim that
f>'ij tlie metal trades employers have failed
FACT THAT IM IS
M OF PEACE TREATY
I
to properly recognize and concede the
principle of collective bargaining to
metal trades employees, Wo bellevo
that there is and has been material
il misunderstanding iu connection with
our recognition of tho principle of col
loctlvo bargaining and in an endeavor
to once more place the position of the
nietal trades clearly before all inter
estod we make the following state-
I men l.
''■Privy counelf'order no-1713, passed
1 in  July, lfllfi, hy the Dominion ctfu
j inet, In part provides as follows:
.J     " '2.   That .all  employes   have   tho
[{J| right to organize In trade unions and
this right shall not. be denied or Interfered  with in any manner whatever
and through their chosen representa*
lives should be permitted and encouraged to negotiate with employers con
corning working condition's,  rates  of
pay or other frlevances."
"The above quoted portion of tho
federal government's defined policy j
on this question, we brieve, should;
bo accepted by those interested, and
our desire has been to recognize and
tyinoedc its applicability to the operation of our respective plants. We havo
endeavored on several occasions to
place concretely in writing our Intent
ind desire relative lo thc question of
L'dHectlve bargaining, but evidently wo
have failed to clearly outline our views
and desires in that connection and wo
therefore, tn the hope of clearing up
entirely any misunderstanding on tho
part* of our employees and on thc part
of the general public and the very
much interested citizens of Winnipeg,
we submit llie following as our declared policy on collective bargaining:
Declared Policy.
"1. Employees shall not be discriminated against by employers or
other employees on account of membership or non-membership In any
craft or organization.
"2. The members of the various
trades organizations employed in tho
undersigned metal trades shops shall

"3. The employees who are members of the various metal trade organizations In the contract shops, 'not including railway shops,' shall have the

PASSENGER SERVICE IS CONTINUING  WITH   BUT  LITTLE
DELAY.
Storm. Does   About   Half   a    Millior
Dollars Damage to City—Causes
Further Trouble.
WINNIPEG, .nine 10.—The most Important phase of the strike situation
today was a further walk-out on the
part of switchmen, firemen and en-
ginemen, employed by tho threo railways, and according to strike leaders,
the threatened extension of the railway striko to western points at mid-
ids ht.
Tlie exact number of those who
walked out during the day In defiance
of the dictum ot international executives could not be stated, but local
freight yards were badly crippled. It
wag declared, however, that the places
of the strikers aro being rapidly filled.
Passenger service is continuing with-
but little delay.
May Ignore Iron Masters
The statement issued by the metal
trades employees, endorsed by all the
leading international brotherhood officials and Hon. 0. D. Robertson, federal minister of labor, acknowledging
their willingness to accept a plan of
collective bargaining following closely
the inea of that employed hy running
trades unions and tho railway companies, has brought no statement from
strike leaders.
The prevailing impression among
union members was that the stand of
the Ironmasters would bo ignored owing largely to the fact that the arrangement would eliminate the metal
trades council as a factor in labor disputes,
it having been reported lhat thc police wero to he reinstated unconditionally the police commission issued
a statement making it* dear thut no
members of the dismissed force would
be returned to duty without signing
the anti-strike agreement and that all
men returning under tbe required conditions will be protected.
Damage by Storm
The damage caused by the storm of
Saturday night, estimated to be more
than half a million dollars, has made
tho strike situation more acute, roles
and wires of telegraph, telephone, electric light and street railway companies
were bio wli down; plate glass windows
ln the business section broken, and
many buildings unroofed and otherwise damaged. In response to appeals,
hTO'ever, volunteers are said to he
coming forward to take up the work of
repairing damage as far as possible.
The back-to-work movement continued, but not on so large a scale as
last week. Ilou^e to house milk deliveries were resumed Ity one comnny.
lt was decided by the city council
lo delay consideration of the jitney
service for another 24 hours, pending
negotiations with the slreet railway
company with regard to running a
fivecont sree car service vbgkqj ESS
five-cent slreet car service.
Because of the strike manufacture
of coffins lias been ontirely suspended
here and casket companies reported
that their stocks were almost depleted.
Trains on Schedule.
Latest news last night in regard to
the strike of some of tlie employees
of the running trades was that all thc
Canadian Pacific railway passenger
trains got off on scheduled time and
those of the Canadian Northern railway were dispatched with some delays. The Canadian Pacific railway,
it .was regarded, was satisfactorily
handling freight and it was announced
there had been an improvement in tho
freight situation on the Canadian
Northern railway. No more additions
to the ranks of the strikers were re
ported yesterday.
When spoken to tonight, It. B. Bus
sell, one of the inner circle of tho
strike committee and a member of the
metal trades council, refused to com
ment on the statement of policy as regards collective bargaining Issued by
the metal trades employers early this
morning.
H. E. Barker, chairman of the railroad brotherhoods' mediation committee, which endeavored to settle the dispute between the metal trades employers and employees, this evening received an informal visit from IX. B.
Hussell. No Information was given
out as to the nature of the Interview.
Mr. Barker stated tonight that tho
mediation committee had gone out of
existence and its members had no Intention of acting further In the matter, but that the committee would issue its report ou the mediation proceedings'.

from Paris.
OTTAWA, .June lfi.—The following
text of the final reply of the allied
and associated powers t the conditions of peaco was recived today by
the government and handed to tho
Canadian I'ress, Limited:
Text of Reply.
PARIS, .Tune lfi—The final reply of
the allied and associated powers to
the conditions of peace handed to the
Germans at Versailles May 7, was delivered to the German delegation today and made public shortly after.
The Germans are allowed five days
to accept or refuse the treaty as it
stands, If they accept, peace will bo
signed.at once; if not, tho armlstico
will terminate on Saturday and tho
powers will take such steps as necessary to enforce their terms,
The principle of the original conditions have been vigorously upheld as
establishing a peaco of juntlce, but
certain modification's in details and
many explanations of thc effect of
execution are made.
The reply is In two parts, a general
covering letter of about. -laOO words
and seriatim discussions of the general
counter proposals. The changes in
elude a plebiscite for upper .Silesia
with guarantees of coal therefrom;
frontier rectifications in West Prussia; omission of the third zone of the
Schleswig plebiscite; temporary increase of the German army from 100.-
001) to 200,000 men; declaration of intention to submit within a month of
the signature a list of those accused
of violation of the laws and customs
of war; an offer to cooporato with tho
German commission on reparations,
and to receive suggestions for discharging tho obligation; certain detailed modifications in the finance,
economic, ports and waterways
clauses, including abolition ot tlie proposed Kiel canal commission and the
assurance of membership In tht? league
of nation's in thc early future, if Germany fulfills her obligations.
Covering Letter.
The covering letter from M. Clemenceau, president of the peace conference, to Count von BrockdorCf-Rant-
ztill, president of the German delegation, follows:
"Section 2. j\lr. President, the'allied aud associated powers have given
the most earnest consideration lo tho
observations of tho German delegates
on the draft of tho treaty of peace.
The reply protests against llie peace
on tho ground that it conflicts wilh
the terms on which tbe armlstico of
the 11th of November, 1918, was signed, and that It is a peace of violence
and not of justice. The protest of the
German delegation shows that Ihey
failed1 to understand the position in
which Germany stands today. Thoy
seem to think that Germany has only
to make sacrifices in order ot attain
peace, as if those were but the end of
some mere struggle for territory and
power. The allied and associated
powers therefore feel it necessary to
begin the reply by a clear statement
of the judgment of the world which
has been formed liy practically tho
whole of civilized mankind.
"In view of the allied and asso
dated powers ,the wur which began
on August -1, 1014, was thc greatest
crime against'humanity and freedom
of the people that any nation, calling
Itself civilized,, has over consciously
committed lor many years. The rulers ot Germany, true to the Prussia]
tradition, strove for a position of dom
inanee in Europe. They were not satisfied with that growing prosperity
and influence which Germany was en
titled and which all other nations
wero willing tu accord hqr, they re*
quired that they should be able lo dictate and tyrranize over a subservient
Europe, us they dictated and tyrran-
ized over the German. Jn order to attain their ends to use every channel
lhat to educate their own subjects to
the doctrine lhat might was right In
international affairs they never ceased to expand German armaments by
land and sea, and to propagate the
falsehood that it was necessary because Germany's neighbors were Jealous oi her prosperity and power.
Enemy of World
"They sought to sow hostility and
suspicion Instead of friendship between nation's. They developed a system of espionage through which they
were enabled to stir up international
rebellion and unrest and even to make
Secret offensive preparations within
the territory of their neighbors, wnere-
by they might, when the moment came,
strike them down wilh greater. certainty and ease. They kept Europe in
a ferment by threats of violence and
when they found that their neighbors
were resolved lo resist their'arrogant
will, they determined to assist their
predominance in Europe by force. ■ As
soon as their preparations were complete they encouraged a subservient-
nation to declare war on Serbia al -18
hours' notice, a war involving the control of the Balkans, whieh they itncw
could not be localized and whieh was
bound to unchain a general war. in
order to make doubly sure they reiused
every attempt at conciliation .and conference, until it was too late and the
world war was inevitable for whieh
they had plotted and for which alone
among the nations Ihey were adequately equipped and prepared.
Inhuman Warfare
"Germany's responsibility, is not
confined to having planned and started
the world war. She is no less responsible for the inhuman manner in which
the war was condv -ted. Though Ger-
maad was herself, tue guaranty uf pel- J
glum, the rulers of Germany violated,
after a solemn promise, to respect it,
the neutrality of this inof fending
people. Not contented with this, they
deliberately carried oui a series or promiscuous shootings and burnings with
the sole objert of terrifying the Inhabitants into submission by the very
frlghtfulness of  their anions.
"They were the first to use poisoned
gas, notwithstanding ibe appalling suffering il entails. They began the
bombing and long distance shelling
of towns for no military object, but
solely for the purpose nf reducing the
morale of their opponents, by striking
at their women and children.
"They commenced tin- submarine
campaign with ils challenge to international law and its destruction of
great numbers of Innocent passengers
and sailors in mltf-oceun, far from
succor, at tho mercy of lhc wind and
the waves, and the yel more ruthless
submarine crews.
"They drove thousands of men and
women, with bftital savagery into the
slavery of foreign lands, they allowed
barbarities to be practiced against
their prisoners of war from whicli the
most uncivilized people would have refrained.
Unexampled Conduct
"The conduct of Germany is almost
unexampled In human history, The
terible responsibility which ties at her
door can be seen In the fact that not
less than seven million dead lie buried
in Europe, "while more than 2,000.000
others carry upon them the evidence
of wounds and suffering, because Germany saw fit to gratify ItVr lust fop
tyranny by resorting to war.
"The allied and associated powers
believe lhat Ihey will be false to those
who havo given their all to save the
freedom of the world If they consent
to treat war In any other way than as
a crime against humanity and right.
"This attitude of the allied and associated powers was made perfectly clear
to Germany during the war by their
principal statesmen.
"It was defined by President Wilson
in his speech on April fl, 1018, and
explicitly and categorically accepted
by/tho German P(%m) as. a principle
governing tlio pence—'let everything
that we say, my fellow countrymen,
everything that we henceforth plan
and accomplish, ring true to this response, until the majesty and might
of our concerted power shall fill lho
thoughts and utterly defeat the forco
of those who flout and misprize what
wo honor and hold dear. Germany
has once more said that force, and
force alone, shall decide whether justice and peace, shall reign in tbe Utah's <if men, whether right as America
conceives ii or dominion as Germany
conceives it shall determine the destinies of mankind. There is, therefore, but one response possible for us
—force, force to the uttermost, force
without stint nr limit, the righteous
and triumphant force which shall
make right the law of the world and
cast every selfish dominion down in
the dust.'
British Premier's Stand.
"It was set forth clearly in a speech
by the prime minister of Great Britain, dated December 11, J OH, there is
no security In any land without certainty ot punishment. There is no
protection lor life, properly or money
in a slate where the criminal Is more
powerful than the iaw> Tire law of
nations is no exception until it has
been vindicated, the peace of ihe world
will always in: at the mercy uf any
nation whose professors have assiduously taught it lo believe that no
crime is wrong so long as it leads to
tho aggrandizement and enrichment of
the country to which. Ihey owe allegiance. There have been many limes
in tho 'history of world criminal states.
We are dealing with one of them now.
There will always bo criminal states
until the reward uf International crime
becomes   too  precarious make   It
profitable, aud ihe punishment of international crime becomes tou sure to
make It attractive.
Section 2~"It was made clear also
in an address ot M. Clemenceau of
September,   IStlS:
" 'What do tbe , French soldiers
want? What do we ourselves want'.'
To fight, lo fight victoriously and
unceasingly, until the hour when the
enemy snail understand that no compromise is possible between such
crime  and  justice.' I*.
What Justice  Requires
"Similarly   Signor   Orlando,   speak*
ing   on   tbo   third   of  October,   11)18,
declared:
" 'We shall obtain peace when our
enemies recognize that humanity has
the right and duty to safeguard itself
against a continuance of such causes
as have brought about this terrible
slaughter; and that the blood of millions ,of men calls not for vengeance,
hut for the realization of those high
Ideals for which it has been
generously shed. Nobody thinks of
employing—even by way of legitimate
retaliation—methods of brutal violence or overbearing domination or of
suffocation of tlie freedom of any
people—methods and politics which
made the world rise against tho
Central powers. But nobody will
contend that the moral idea can bo
restored simply because hu who waits
in his iniquitous endeavor declares
that he has renounced his aim.
Questions intimately affecting tho
peaceful life of nations, once raised,
must obtain thu solution which jus-
lice requires.'
"Jusllce, therefore, is the only pos-
FALL OF KRONSTADT IS
SAID TO BE IMMINENT
HELSINGFORS, June 16.—The
fall of Kronstadt, the naval base of
Pe rotjrad, is imminent according
to reports received by naval circles
here from Reval, the capital of Es-
thonia. Reports say that a white
flag has been hoisted over the fortress several times by its Bolshevik defenders.
Bible basis for the settlement of the
accounts of this terrible war. .Justice
is what the German delegation asks
for, and says that Germany has been
promised, But it must be justice for
all. There must be justice! for the
dead and wounded and for those who
have, been (orphaned and bereaved,
that .Europe might be freed trom
Prussian despotism. There must be
justice for the peoples who no\4
staggeii under war debts which exceed thirty billions, that liberty
might bo saved. There must be
justice for those millIoh|i whose
homes and lands, ships and properly
German savagery has spoiled and
destroyed.
Must Make Reparation
"This is why the allied and associated powers have insisted ns a cardinal feature of the treaty that Germany must undertake to make reparation lo the very uttermost of her
power, for reparation for wrongs Inflicted Is of the essence of justice.
That is why they insist lhat those
individuals who are most clearly responsible for German aggressions and
for those acts of barbuWsm and in
humanity which have disgraced tho
German conduct of tho war, must be
handed over to justice which has
not been meted out to them at home,
, "That, too, Is why Germany must
submit for a few years to certain
special disabilities and
Germany has ruined the Industries,
the mines and the machinery of j
neighboring countries, not during bat
tie, but with the deliberate and cal
eulated purpose of enabling her own
industries to seize their markets before their industries could recover
from the devastation thus wantonly
inflicted upon them. Germany lias
despoiled her neighbors of everything
she could make use of or carry away.
Germany has destroyed the shipping
of nil nations on the high seas, where
there was no chance of rescue for
their passengers and crews. It is
only justice that restitution should
be made and that those wronged
people should be safeguarded from a
time from the competition of a. nation
whose industries aro intact and have
heen fortified hy machinery stolen
from  occupied  territories,
"If these changes are hardships for
Germany, Ihey are hardships which
Germany has brought on herself.
Somebody must suffer for the consequences of Ilic war. Is is to be
Germany or 'the people she has
wronged'.'
"The Allied and Associaled Powers,
therefore, behove lhat tho peace they
have proposed is fundamentally a
peace of justice. They aro no less
certain that it is n peace of right on
thn terms agreed. There can lie no
doubt ns to the Intentions of Ihe Allies
and Associated Powers to base tiie
sctllement of Europe on the principlo
nf freeing oppressed peoples and redrawing national boundaries ns far as
possible in accordance with ihe will
of the peoples concerned, while giving
to each facilities for living nn independent national and economic life.
These intentions were made clear not
only by President Wilson's address io
congress of January 8, 1D1S, hut in
tho principle of settlement enunciated
In his subsequent addresses, which
was the agreed basis of pence. A
memornndum on this point is attached
to Ibis letter.
Poland to be Independent
"Accordingly the Allied and .Associaled Power's have provided for the
rooonstilulion of Poland as an Independent state wilh "free and becuro
access to all territories inhabited by
indubitiujly Polish people,''
"All territory inhabited by German
subjects, save ior a tew isolated towns
and for colonics established on land
recently Polish territory, have been
left to Germany. Wherever the will
of the people is iu doubt plebiscites
have been provided for. The town of
Danzig has been converted as a free
city, so that the inhabitants will be
autonomous and do noL come under
Polish rule, and form no part of the
Polish state. Poland lias been given
certain economic fights in Danzig,
and the cily itself has been severed
from the enemy because in no other
way was it possible to provide for the
free and secure access to llie sea which
Germany has promised to concede.
"The Allied and Asoeiated Powers
havo given careful consideration to the
request o- tlie German delegation that
Germany should be admitted to the
league of nations as one of the conditions of peace. They are unable to
accede lo this request.. The German
revolution was postponed to the last
moments of the war, and there is as
yet no guarantee Lhat It represents
a permanent change, ln thc present
temper of international feeling it
impossible to expect the free nations
of tlie world lb sit down immediately
association with those by whom they
have been grievously wronged.
"Not lo do justice to all concerned
would only leave the world open to
fresh calamities, if the German people themselves, or another nation, aro
to be deterred from following the footsteps ot Prussia, If mankind ls to be
lifted from thc belief that war for
selfish ends is legitimate lo any state;
if the old era is to be left behind and
nations as well as Individuals are to
be brought- beneath the reign of law,
even if there is to be early restoration
and appeasement, it will be because

TARIFF PROPOSALS MADE
BY LAURIER
Dr. Cowan, Regina, Will Op'pose  McMaster  Amendment  as   Bill  Will
Save  the   People  $17,000,000
a Year
OTTAWA, June IC—That he Is In
favor of the tariff advocated by Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, was a statement
made by D. 1). McKenzle, in continuing the debate on the budget in the
commons today. He further put himself on record as being entirely in
accord with the principles of the
Liberal parly on the tariff question
and explained that in a recent speech,
in which he made a. reference to the
tariff which has been tho subject of
much comment, he had used the word
"protection" when he should have
said bounty.
lie was in favor, he said, of encouraging industries which develop
the natural resources of the country
by bounties or otherwise. Mr. lie
Kenzie said he stood by the Mc
Muster amendment, both in its pres^'
ent form and in the more specific
form in which it was moved earlier
in the session. The amendment expressed in a compact way, lie said
the attitude of the Liberal party ai
present. Mr. McKenzle criticized the
government in connection with
penditures, the cost, of living and
labor troubles. He once more expressed the opinion that a court
should be established to deal with
labor troubles,
Dr. W. 1). Cowan, Regina, who
preceded Mr. McKonzio, said he would
oppose Ibe amendment, Iwcausei the
government, In response to the demands of western members, had
made tariff changes that will save
tbe people 17,000,00(1 dollars per annum.
.Tohn Harold, of Brant, in opposing
the amendment, predicted that Canadian makers nf agricultural implement will be driven from the field
by United Stales competitors if they
do not receive some encourageinnnt.
Substantial Reduction
Dr. W, D. Cowan, Begin;., In continuing the debate on the budget,
announced first his intention of voting against the nnicnilmenl. A very
substantial reduction had been made
In the tariff at a time when be did
not see thai the government was
called upon to make any reduction,
The last time the Canadian people
had expressed their view on trado
pnestlons was in the year 1011, when
the reciprocity issue had been fought
out. At that time the people had
opposed reciprocity and the tariff
reductions involved in it. The tariff
reductions in the budget before the
house, said Dr. Cowan, were made
as a concession to the west and
western members should be htank-
ful for them.
Western members, he said, had
succeeded in forcing a reduction in
customs duties of % 17,000.000. He
thought having accomplished so much
western members were entitled to
continue in that direction until they
had succeeded hi eliminating the unjust burdens which undoubtedly* bore
on western Canada. He described the
McMaster amendment as having nothing specific, nothing definite In it.
"I don't know," Dr. Cowan said,
"where ll is leading to, and I don't
think anybody else knows." He
thought Sir Joseph Hnvelle and the
"herd of bacon hogs" could come under the amendment as well as anybody else.
"When I see thc government dealing honestly as they have dealt/' Dr.
Cowan went on, "it seems to me that
they are trying to lie sincere with
us." He did not npprove of Mr.
Crerar leaving his place of duty at
a time when duty called.
Inopportune Time
Dr. Cowan considered the present
time inopportune for a general revision of the tariff. He said that
if a revision were made at present,
when the country was in a restlens
and unsettled condition, it might be

Known   her  intentions.
M, Dutasta arrived in Versailles by
automobile from Paris ai o.
dairying ibe momentous
in, two packages, wrapped in pMifo
brown papers. He was received by
Col. Henry, master of ceremonies' at
Versailles,' and officers uf tbe allied
missions, and conducted lo the rend-**
:ng room of the Hotel Beservnir,
Here tin- party was grouped along
one side of the room. In front o£
M. Dutasta was a marble-topped
table, upon which the documents
were placed in (wn [dies, Theso
was a considerable wait before Legation Secretary Simon and Baron vou
Loersoner arrived, escorted by two
French officers, The Germans took
their place on the other side of tho
table.
At G.49 o'clock Herr Simon informally reached the table and took
tiie documents aud handed them to
Baron vop Lperserior, Tbis actually
constituted the formal receipt of tl)o
treaty and tbe ultimatum. X receipt from the Germans for the documents was required by M. Dutasta.
After the brief conversation between M. Dntastu and Herr Simon,
the Germans returned to their apartment in the hotel, Von l.oersener
carrying the documents under his nrni
in a green portfolio, hater Count
von Brockdorff-Rantzau boarded a
train for Weimar, taking the documents with  him,

The Intercourse between the two*
groups was rather confused. No
provision for an interpreter bad been
made. Secretary Dutasta spoko In.

apparently were aware of just what

Simon  safd:
"I must observe, of course, for.my

unsatisfactory, Once made, there
would be. probably not another decision for seven or eight years. He
was, be said;' strongly in favor of
Sir Thomas While's view for a revision later on.
Dr, Cowan complained that the
Canadian manufacturers do not deal
fairly with the people of western
Canada. He Instanced canned goods,
saying that they were often short
in weight. In other ways, Dr. Cowan
said, Canadian manufacturers have
not shown good judgment in dealings with the western market, For
une thing, they do not pay dealers in
agricultural Implements and other
goods as large a percentage for sales
as do the United States manufacturers, with the result that the sale
of thc United States goods is more
vigorously   pushed.
Dr. Cowan admitted lhat there is
a great amount of discontent in western Canada. It is due partly, 1$)
said, to the act ol the Liberal administration which, in 1905, when the
provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan were created, deprived them of
their natural resources. While the
blame in the first place rests with
ihe Liberals, the west now called
•upon Sir Robert Borden to fulfill
pledges he had made in regard' to
the restoration to the prairie provinces of their resources. Until this
is done, he said, proper development
cannot take place ' In either Saskatchewan  or  Alberta.
Dr. Cowan concluded that he was
going to support the government because the. government had {given
what he considered a fair reduction,
McKonzie   Speaks
D, D. McKenzle. leader of the opposition, remarked tbat the government on November 211. 1(111, promised
a tariff commission, and the commission had not yet been appointed, lt
was not fair to say that the Liberal
party was opposed to the building
of railways In tlie west. If there
was anything grand in western development, they were traceable to
Liberal administration. The Liberal
party was in favor of building railways -In Ihe wesl. but wanted nn
foolery about it. So far as iron and
steel were concerned, in Mr. Mc-
Kenv.le'H view, a nation must develop
Its   natural   resources.
Mr. McKenzle said that a great
deal bad, been made of a statement
in his -speech on the government shipbuilding program. In that speech he
had used the word "protection." when
he should have said "bounty." lie
was in favor, said Mr. McKenzle, of
encouraging Industries which developed the natural resources of the
country by bounty or other methods.
As far as the tariff was concerned,
the policy of the Liberal party was
lhat laid down by the late Sir Wilfrid
Laurler.
Tho duty on bituminous coal, said
the speaker, was very low. * The revenue tariff on coal of this quality
amounted to only :,% per cent. He
was, he said; in entire accord with
the principles of the Liberal party
on tariff rpiestlons. Financial stability was the great end to be striven
for in  fiscal  matters.

Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief for
Acid Indigestion.
So-called stomach troubles, such as
indigestion, gas, sourness, stomnch-
ache and Inability to retain food are
In probably nine cases out of ten, simply evidence that excessive secretion of
acid is taking place In the stomach,
causing tlie formation of gas and acid
indigestion.
Gas distends the stomach and causes
that full, oppressive, burning feeling
sometimes known as heartburn,- while
the acid Irritates 'and :lnflariteif th*»'
delicate lining 'of the stortiacli:1 Tlib
trouble lies entirely ih the excess (le-1,
velopmcnt of secretion of acid.       '"':
To stop or prevent this souring'Ot
llie food contents of the stomach anil
to neutralize the acid, and make' 'ifc
bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of
bisurated magnesia, a good and effective corrector of acid stomach, should
he taken in a quarter of a glass ot
hot or cold water after eating or
whenever gas, sourness or acidity Is
felt. This sweetens the stomach and
neutralizes tile acidity In a few moments and is a perfectly harmless and
Inexpensive remedy to uso.
An antlaeid, such as bisurated magnesia, which tan be obtained from any
druggist in either powder or tablet
form enables the stomach to do Its
work properly without the aid of artificial digestants. Magnesia come*

President of York Trading Company
.   Gives Evidence Before Cost ot
.Living  Commission.   .
OTTAWA, Juno 10.—Some facts-of
alleged restraint of trade were brought
out at thc. sitting of thc cost of living
committee of the commons Saturday
morning. They were placed before the
committee by H, H. Stevens, who presided ln tho absence of Mr. Nicholson.
Ho read a letter.from tho York Trading company, Importers nnd wholesale
grocers- of Toronto,; which said that
in May last a charter was obtained
from tho provincial government and
business was commenced.
Application was made for membership in the wholesale grocers' organization. Notices were sent to a number of manufacturers advising them of
the formation of thc company and re;
questing to be supplied with their
price lists and terms. This, he said,
was not compiled with. The letter
goos on to say that .officers of tho,
York Trading'company waited upou
tho president of the wholesale grocers
organization and lho principal reason
for delaying the .decision appeared, to
bo the fear of further competition and
[ the cutting of prices on.the part of the
new company. In- fa£t,' the assertion*
was made liy him that,-thc organlz-j
ation had to maintain and safeguard
the manufacturers':prices.
Amongst tho. manufacturers' letters,
copies of which were sent to the cost
of; HyingCommittee, was one from the
Cniuini'l Chemical company, which said
bluntly, "we lii'c unable to extend you
our jobbing discounts.'.' .
Mr.-Stevens said, these wero "rather
Btarttlng factB which merit tho consideration of the committee.'*., It was decided to examine offices of tho Wholesale Grocers' association and the
manufacturers mentioned.
W. E. IJqck, assistant livestock commissioner, examined as to the Union
stockyards in Toronto, said they were
really a subsidiary company of Swift's.
Prlco fixing was in the hands of the
big packers. At the suggestion! of
Hon. W.. S. Fielding it was decided
to Invite any of (he public who caro
to bo heard, to come before tho committeo and give. any evidence they
might have.

LAND SPECULATORS REAP
PROFITS |N  BRITAIN
LONDON*.—Somo land in Essex, offered just beforo tho war at $335 an
acre, lias just been sold for $850; and
some' tolerably indifferent land in tlie
same county has been bought for sniall
holdings at $400 an acre; In Hertfordshire whole farms havo changed
hands three times In the last IS
months, each time presumably at a
profit.
Thero is no doubt that fortunes are
being made by tho land speculators.
They have* been enjoying quick' returns and big profits;
Tho danger is that tenant farmer's,
who have beon almost forced into buying, for thc sake of the fixity of tenure which they could no longer hope
for, may find' a sudden "slump" in
prices..., They havo often splint most
of their available' capital in the purchase of the land itself, and would be

VANCOUVER, Juno 10.—Declaring
that it had no trust in tbe present
\ leaders of the Vancouver Trades and
Labor council, on account of the
"disgraceful twenty-four hour strike"
called in the city last year, and attacking the methods by which the
general strike vole had been taken.
Mm Vancouver branch ot the Great
Wnr Veterans' association—an or;
gaiiizatlon representing more than
4.000 returned men in the city—on
Thursday night placed itself on ro-
cord as opposed -to the Htrlke. Many
speakers declared that the issue was
a straight show-down bctweon Bolshevism in Canada and the British
constitution. Theso declarations wcro
received witli great cheers.
, Another resolution was adopted ex
pressing sympathy with Sergt. Prod
Coppips, thc . Victoria . Cross hero,
who was trampled and.stamped upon
by alien enemies in Winnipeg whilst
doing his duty.
The resolution condemning thc
Strike In Vancouver was adopted by
a very large majority, there being
probably more than a twenty-tp-one
vote, lt was passed after a lengthy
debnte, during whicli thc few In opposition to It put up a Btrcnuous
fight against it, and amid Iremendous
enthusiasm. In fact, the entire-meet,
ing was punctuated witli vociferous
.cheering.
, Tha Resolution
"Thnt we, thc Great War Veterans'
association, Vancouver branch, as nn
association do hereby go on- record
as follows:
That while this association Is
heartily in accord with the aims of
legitimate labor as represented, by
the international unions and the
American Federation of Labor, wc
arc not In..sympathy with the manner in which' the Vancouver Trades
and I,abor council organized the
sympathetic strike in this oify, withholding the,strike vote from tho labor
unions concerned, both individually
and collectively, and Using methods
of Intimidation to force men not In
sympathy with , the strike to leave
their employment. .
i '.'Further,, we realize that this sympathetic strike Is inflicting a great
deal of hardship on. our, newly returned comrades, who arc about to
resume employment after returning
from the front, and that the continuance of such strike will work considerable hardship on many inpocont
people. .
"And   further,   that   we   view   any
movement forwarded  by  the present
leaders of the Vancouvor Trades and
Labor council with the greatest distrust, owing to many of their mem
bers being implicated in tlie disgrace
ful twenty-four hour striko staged In!
connection   with   the   shooting   nf   a
draft evader in August, 1918, and alBo
in   view  of  their  utterances  at  the
B.C. Federation of .Labor convention
and the Western Canada Labor con-
.ferenco held in Calgary this spring.
"Further, we realize that the pro-,
rnoting of better pensions and the
$2,000 bonus, .as ope of the.objects of
fills sympathetic striko now being
hold, is merely a clumsy piece of
political chicanery.    .
"And, furthermore, we reaffirm our
determination,   during this  crisis,  to
uphold constitutional authority.
. -,        "F.  W.  RUSSELL PJGBY,
"it. CROWE-SWORDS."
Tribute to Sernt, Copoins, V.C.
"That-whereas, one of .our distinguished comrades and national heroes,
Sergt. Fred Copplns, V.C., was
Tuesday, June la, 1919, whilst in the
execution of his duty towards the
■loyal cltzens of Canada, beaten up,
trampled and stamped upon by alien
enemies in tlie city of Winnipeg, and
now lies in hospital seriously. Injured;
. "It is resolved, thai: this association go oh record as condemning the
action of parties responsible,, and to
forwards, telegram of sympathy to
Sergt. Copplns, V.C*.

London.—With  tin   Intention   of
determining  conditions   in  southeast
era Europe for the benefit of travellers
who wish  tu  take advantage of tho
world famous ''.Cook's tour," a representative of Thomas Cook & Son, recently made   the journey  from  Marseilles to Bucharest.   His report made
from Bucharest to the London office
of the firm is, in  part:
'   "Wc left Paris on January 28, but
owing to a variety of reasons we only
arrived here on March 18.   Tlie sailing of our boat, the Tchikatchoff, was
putftponed several times owing to engine trouble, then after sailing a day
and  a  night   in   awful   weather,  tho
engines  broke  down  and we  had  to
bo taken1  back to Marseilles by  tug.
However, after two stops en route for
repairs We eventually got to Constantinople on March 13.   Our stay theru
was short, but except perhaps that a
few things like butter were difficult
to get, we  found  plenty 'of food. Including   cakes   and   sugared   pastries
and  other sweet-meats—not a great
deal of beef, but lamb and chicken In
plenty.
"I tried  several  classes of restau-
Americana, and-then generally on dip.
lomatic work—but a good many foreign business men and travellers. Our
old offlco Is now in the hands of a
curio dealer who calls himself 'Little
Moses.'
"The only rooms we could get were
at tho New hotel, almost opposite thc
Pera     Palacean—an     unpretentious
third rate place, but very comfortable,
for  whieh   we  paid   two   pounds  In
Turkish money for room only.   I was
told Britisli residents are entitled to
draw rations from army stores,    Wc
had an unpleasant journey from Constantinople here.   Wo landed at Con-
stanza, which place we left by train
tt 11 p.m.   We got first-class compartments all right, but no light, no heating, and stripped of everything by the
Germans, even to the plush covering
on the seats.    The train crosses the
Danube  by  the Ccrnavoda  bridge all
right, bin '.lie line comes to an end in
the Bortia district, as a second bridge
across another river whicli runs into
the Danube has been destroyed.   Wo
left the train nt 7 a.m. after freezing
for eight hours and then bad towalk,
one' kilometer to the river in a regular
blizzard    over    prairie-llke    country.
You cross thc river by tug—get another  train which is waiting and in
half  an   hour you  come   to  Festesti,
where you take the train for Bucharest.   It was due to leave at 9:30 a.m.,
but we eventually left Festesti at 7:30
p.m. and gut tu Bucharest at 3 a.m.
next morning.   These delays are pretty regular, I understand.
Food Fairly Plentiful.
As far as hotel aiid restaurant life
of things were grossly exaggerated.
One must take into account the low
rates of exchange which seem to alter
dally. With money you get all you
want, the peasants aro no doubt the
chief sufferers, but recent supplies of
Hour sent by the allies have relieved
the situation.

"COLLECTIVE     BARGAINING"     18
CLEARLY DEFINED
"Collective bargaining" has been
very clearly and definitely defined by
public statements made at Winnipeg.
In July, 1918, thc Dominion cabinet
passed an ordcr-ln-councll which set
forth  the  principle:
That   all   employees   have   tho
right to organize in trade unions
and this right shall not be denied
or interfered with in any manner
whatsoever,    and.   through   their
chosen   representatives  should  be
permitted and encouraged to negotiate   with   employers   concerning
working  conditions,  rates  of  pay
or  other  grievances.
In a statement issued Sunday, the
employers of the striking metal work*
crs .Stated categorically their accept
ance   of   this   method   and,   so   that
there could bo no possible doubt In
tho matter, went into detail regarding'Its application.
Heads of the three railway com
panics issued a statement; saying that
tho principle of collective bargaining
as outlined by thc metal trades employers was exactly the samo as that
applied in agreements between the
railways and their organized employees. •>
Heads of the great railway unions,
tho engineers, the firemen and en-
glncmcn, the trainmen, the conductors, the telegraphers and thc main
tcnance-of-way employees formally
endorse, In a signed statement, the
principle of collective bargaining as
outlined by the metal trades employers.
Flnnlly, Minister of Labor Robertson makes the declaration that the
policy outlined is a full and complete
recognition of collective bargaining as
generally interpreted and applied and]
is entirely ln accord with the established practise on Canadian railways.
If the principle of "collective bargaining" wero the real issue in Winnipeg those declarations by employers, union labor heads and the representative of the government would
settle the question. But collective
bargaining was not the issue. The
Bolshevist leaders in tho west decided
to make Winnipeg the scene of a bid
to establish what they called at tlieir
convention in Calgary a "proletarian dictatorship." They talked incessantly at Winnipeg ol collective
bargaining with the hope of convincing union labor that recognition of
unions was at stake. They did succeed In misleading thousands of
workers, but every day the truo
nature of the attempt to overthrow
constitutional government in Canada
and substitute Bolshevism and anarchy (n its place is becoming more
apparent.
Total        $66,747,662.10
The actual assessment is larger than
this total but the minister stated that
Information as to how much remained
for collection could not be supplied as
a number of returns wero being held
for adjustment.
From the figures given above It Is
apparent thnt the non-agricultural
population—and in reality the Industrial interests of the country, exclusive of farmers or farmers' organizations—have paid ln present Income
taxes, or are liable to pay, ¥9,613,745.18
on personal Income account, and $66,-
747,662.10 In Business .Profits War Tax,
a total of $76,361,407.28 as compared
with a direct levy upon agriculturists,
who represent approximately 50 per
cent of the population, of only $417,-
349.10.
They say that in the east anyone
who picks dandelions these days is;
under suspicion.   One wonders why.
Bolshevism isn't new. Pluto outlined
the scheme In a theoretical treatise
more than 2,000 years ago. Even to
tho plan of making all property, including women nnd children, common
—a scheme which has* been put Into
practical effect by one of the Soviets
in Russia.
Roger Culver Tredwoll, United States
consul at Petrograd, has forwarded to
the Department of State at Washington a statement of his observations
regarding (Bolshevik rule. Ho soys
that he wishes to give without prejudice, the result of observations made
in tho course of almost two years in
Russia. Tho effect of Bolshevism, ho
says, has been to replace the bureaucracy of the czar by dictatorship of
now and ignorant oppressors of thc
Russian people. Tho Bolshevik army,
as a rule, lacking discipline, i.s feared
and hated by tho railway workers, who
object to the policy of the present regime, and to thc augmented number of
minor officials with unnecessary function. Discontent is found particularly among the lower classes, who
nro finding working conditions worse
than before. Becau- of the valueless
paper currency, the peasants have no
incentive to produce crops beyond
those necessary for their own immediate needs, and arc willing only to exchange crops for manufactured articles.
the  place, consequetiy less likely to
be a menace to society.
In passing I would like to mention
that I had to visit no less than seven
drug stores in tlie city of Victoria he-
fore I was able to secure a pocket
sputum flask of any description. Think
it over, Mr. Health Officer, hundreds
of thousands dying yearly of tuberculosis, and what proportion of them
realize how they are spreading tho
disease?
Eighteen thousand deaths approximately were attributable to pulmonary tuberculosis In the state of New
York during 1918.
One would like to know just what
proportion of this number were in the
habit of spitting promiscuously. It Is
up to you to educate the public. A
contribution to the local newspapers
on disease prevention, say once a
week, would be something.
I hear unofficially that the Rockefeller foundation have appropriated the
sum of $3,800,000 to he devoted entire
ly to propagonda for the prevention
of disease and $2,500,000 for actual
treatment.
In conclusion I will only add that,
presuming such a law were passed,
how could it be enforced when experience has proven that not one doctor In fifty (a moderate estimate) can
detect by physical examination the
presence of a disease like T. B. until
it has reached a moderately advanced
stage.
I do not hesitate to say that proof
of the above appalling statement ,may
be obtained from the case records of
any sanatorium.

The present service has been tound

AGRICULTURALISTS PAID SMALL
PART   OF   WAR   TAXES.
Out of tho 'otal direct levy on incomes by the federal government during th war the agricultural community has been assessed for only about
54-100 K>t 1 per cent or 1-184 of the*
total. Excluding the business profits
war tax, farmers have only been
assessed for 3.88 per cent uf the total
of the entire ascssment under the Income tax law.
Replying to questions put on tho
order papor by Sir Herbert Ames, Sir
Thomas White has stated in the house
of commons that the aggregate assessment under the Income War Tax act
of 1917, of all persons giving their
vocation as farmers or stock raisers
was $417,349.10, The total amount
assessed on incomes under clause 4
oi the Income Tax of 1917 was also
returned as $10,031.28. Nearly all of
this amount represents taxation of per*

PUBLIC HEALTH  AND MARRIAGE
LAW,
To tho Editor Tho Nelson Daily News.
Sir: I was extremely interested ln
tho account of the meeting of tlio
Canadian Public Health association,
and particularly in the plea advanced
by Dr. J, A. Hutchinson of West*
mount, Quebec, for a more "drastic
marriage law," which would make
tuberculosis a bar to marriage as an
hereditary disease.
My interest is only equalled by my
expectancy for an account of a meeting of thc British Columbia Electricians' association advocating better
and moro light for cats.
I perhaps err in adopting seeming
facetiousness regarding a matter of
serious import. "Let thc shoemaker
stick to his last," truo a number of
practicing medico* would bo better
occupied fixing our boilers than ex
amining our chests.
Unfortunately there aro too many
ot tho Dr. J. A. Hutchinson type of
people, whose solo idea of bettering
things in this life is to stick up a
forbidden sign, attach a penalty and
go on their way with a smug "What
a good boy am 1" manner,
1 venture to contend that thc medical profession would bo found to hold
divided opinions as to what were hereditary diseases and I feel safe ln
saying that tuberculosis would certainly not be so categorized.
There would certainly be divergence
of opinion as to the gravity of the
disease in tho individual. One doctor
would regard tho disease to be ln such
an incipient state that ho would grant
permission, whilo another doctor
would tako a very different view; It
would therefore mean that wo must
either find a doctor who would bo
lenient, unscrupulous, or to dispense
altogether with tho marriage core-
mo ny.
Dr. J. A. Hutchinson and his kon
have much good work they can do,
educating tbo diseased how lo prevent
tho spread; by this I mean specific
reasons for specific acts. A "Drastic
marriage law" has no moro to com
mend lt than thc suggestion tbat tho
diseased person become a deceased
body by' blowing out his brains, in
fact less, and probably less moral law
would be violated.
The colossal Ignorance existing
amongst the masses regarding preventative measures in respect to the
spread of disease offers unlimited
fields of labor. To demonstrate, whilo
working last year at the coast, one of
the employees came into my offlco
and ln a very agrieved mannor related that the firm had taken on a
new man (incidentally, a returned soldier), who had taken treatment for
T. B.; didn't I think it a Bhame, etc.,
etc. During the narrative the gentleman (?) went to the office door and
spat outside twice. When he was
quite through, with his tale of woe I
thanked him .for not spitting on the
floor of the office and suggested that
he secure some pocket sputum flasks.
I produced my own and added that
1 did not doubt but that the new man
also carried one, as he was familiar

resentment-
Hope  for  hereafter and happiness

Deep   In   Lhc   bosom  of  each  of  the

Must harmony reign In all its relations.
Wearing a halo of light on Its brow.
Such Is the mission of Europe's Peace

Tightening thc bonds of a mutual
trust;
Checking the world on the verge of

Exorcising   hatred,   disorder,   corrup

Lifting humanity out of tho dust.
Peace must be based on thc strictest

Foundations  of  order,   of  right  and

The   hand  of  authority  governing

Otherwise   Freedom   can   have    n<

Merely to lift and again drop the

Avoiding the pathway so  recently

The solving of problems for each of

The rest may be loft to thc ruling

2nd Juno. 1919.
Among the remarkable features of)
the reconstruction period is the quick
recovery of the English theatre, .says
the Christian Science Monitor. "Projects multiply for placing the higher
drama In the unchallenged position it
once held. Like the Libyan wrestler
who was supposed to have gained
strength each time be was thrown,
the theatre, having concluded a period
of rapid decline with complete disaster during the war, burst into new
energy as the time came for reconstruction, How it will set Its course
in thc new development, it is not easy
to say; but It has wisely raised the
old oriflamme and the well-tried standards of Shakespeare will be the
starting point. "Shakespeare," says
Cramb, "to the English-speaklnpr race
was a challenge for all time—a trumpet call to the people to care for the
things that really matter, tho things
that never pass away." Those are
the things that people care for now,
nnd so Shakespeare will dominate the
opening of the new ara for the theatre, His recent anniversary claimed
more interest and serious attention In
tho country than many of Its predecessors, while , thc so-called new
Shakespeare movement is Intended lo
find adequate means of familiarizing
the public with the plays of the poet
and of Increasing national interest in
their presentation.
The Theatre's Record.
Around this new Shakespeare movement hinged the more important
schemes for the rehabilitation of the
theatre as a whole, and much will
depend upon tho measure of its success. A year or two ago it would
have had the approval of academic
circles; but it would have had a stern
fight against the growing dislike to
mental exertion in the pursuit of
amusement. Moreover, the record of
the theatre for ten years or more offered small guarantee for nny such
enterprise. It had withdrawn before
the advance of the music hall, and
again before the remarkablo growth
of the picture theatre; its methods became erratic, Its Ideals confused, until finally It fell an easy prey to thc
commercial organizer, and sacrificed
Its true art and Its ancient glory lo
become a quick profit-making concern. The war found it a pitiful bankrupt, unable to provide moral stimulus to the war-torn nation, or to
carry out a new enterprise for thc
restoration of pure dramatic, art.
Helped by the War.
But times haVo changed. The war
uncovered hidden assets for thc theatre. The struggle exposed a soil in
which the new movement will flourish, If it is properly handled. It left
a desire to care for things that matter,
and a call came from tbe public .for
a better theatre. Then tho theatre
saw that Its mission was to play a
far more prominent part In the re
creative education of tho nation.
Therefore the new Shakespeare movement opens under peculiar conditions
which promise highly interesting
achievements. If the committee in
charge of the movement, which Is appointed by the national Shakespeare
Memorial commiteo and the governors
of tho Shakespeare Memorial of Strat
ford-on-Avon, will keep before it thc
distinctive ideals of the theatre, there
will be no occasion for further clashes
with the music hall and the film, for
the theatre should, work on a different
piano from these forms of amusement;
neither has it anything in common
with the commercial speculator, whose
supreme art ls the best method of
Inducing the crowds to frequent his
show. Good drama has an intrinsic
value for the public and will be supported accordingly, if properly placed
within its reach.
The Use of the Theatre
The question for the Joint committee
to decide, then, is how to place the
theatre on its rightful plane und to
enable it to become a potent factor in
tho intellectual life of the nation. Thu
committee proposes to work by easy
and natural stages. It proposes first
to organize a "New Shakespeare Company" of players for giving tlie usual
five weeks' season of performances ut
Stratford-on-Avon, In August ond
September of this year, under a capable director, who has already been
appointed, lt hopes to make ot this
company a kind of national  Institu
tion, and eventually a permanent guild
of Shakespearean players.
London's National Theatre
A further project will be a vigorous
effort to interest county and municipal administrations and other public
bodies In the presentation of Shakespeare's plays and thc higher drama
for educational purposes, for both children and adults, and to organize in
various parts of the country centres
from which such dramatic presentations can b> controlled. Then at the
back of the whole project Is the national theatre for London, with its radiating influence to all parts of the
country, which would finally give the
theatre that security and guaranteed
existence from which it could realize
Its ideals, uncontaminated by elements that have no Interest in development of true art, and free from the
necessity of competing with other
forms of entertainment,—Mail and
Empire.
THE   COST   OF   LIVING    IN
SOUTH    AFRICA.
<* i
Now that the final report of the
Cost of Living Commission hns been
published, much of the exasperation
felt at its belated apparance proves to
have been quMo .unnecessary. Not
the most perfervld optimist can glean
much comfort from its findings. The
document was completed on October
26th. It was made public about five
months later. Tho government recently explained, somewhat uncon-
vinclngly, that the influenza epidemic
wns responsible for its dilatory appearance. The interval, meanwhile,
has witnessed the end of the war, and
has seen South Africa plunged into an
industrial ferment, largely precipitated by cost of living problems. Whatever may havo been the mood of tho
country when the commissioners were
neuring tho end nf their labors, there
certainly is no widespread disposition
today to accept blue books as a solvent for the perplexities which are
ruffling the tempers of nil classes in
thc Union.—Natal Advertiser.

(Continued trom P«*e On«>
justice is not defeated for the sake of
a. convenient peace.
People Supported War.
"It is said that me German revolution ought to make a difference and
that the Herman people are not responsible lor llie policy ol* their rulers whom they have thrown from
power. The Allied anil Associated
Powers recognize and/ welcome the
change, it represents* great hope for
peace and a new lOuropoun order In
the future period, but - It cannot affect the settlement of the war. Itself.
The German revolution was stayed
until the German armies had been defeated In the field, and all hope of
profiting by a war or conquest vanished. Throughout Ihe war. as before
the war. tlie Herman people and their
representatives KURDoyted tlie war,
voted the credits, subscribed to the
war loans, obeyed every order, however severe, of their government. They
shared the responsibility for the policy
or the government, for at any moment
had they willed it they could have
revoked It. Had lhat policy succeeded
they would have acclaimed wllh the
same enthusiasm ylth which they welcomed the outbreak of the wur. They
cannot now pretend, having changed
tlieir rulers after the war wus lost,
that it Is Justice that they should
escape the cpnsoquences of tlieir deeds.
"To attempt this too soon would
delay and not hasten that process
of appeasement which all desire, but
the allied and associated powers believe that if the German people prove
by their good acts that they propose
to fulfill the conditions of peace, and
that they have abandoned forever
these aggressive and estranging policies whicli caused the wur, and have
now become a people with whom it
is possible t" live in neighborly good
fellowship llie memories of these past
years will speedily fade and It Mvlll
iie possible ut air early date to
complete the*league of nations by admission of Germany thereto.
Want Co-operation
"It Is their earnest hope that this
may lie llie case. They believe that
the prospects of the world depends
upon the close and friendly cooperation of all nations In thc adjustment of International questions
and promoting the welfare and progress of mankind. Hut Ihe curly
entry of Germany i Into the league
must depend principally upon the
action of the German people themselves.
"In the course of its discussion of
tlieii nomle  terms  and  elsewhere
the German delegation has repeated
its denunciation of the blockade ln-
slltuted by the allied anil associated
powers, Blockade is and always has
been a legal and recognized method
nf war and its operation lias been
from time lo time adapted to changes
In international, communications. It
the allied and associated powers hove
imposed on (.leiniany a blockade of
exceplioaal severity, which throughout they have consistently sought lo
conform lo tho principles of International law, it is because of the
criminal character of tlie war initiated by Germany and of the barbarous methods adopted by her ill
prosecution of the war.
"The allied and associated powers
have now attempted to muke a specific answer to all the observations
made In Ihe German note. Tlie fact of
their omission does not, 'however, indicate that they are either admitted
or open to discussion.
Allies' Last Word.
'"in conclusion, the Allied and Associated Powers must make it clear that
this letter und the memorandum attached constitute tlieir last word. They
had examined the German observations and counter proposals with earnest attention and care. They have, in
consequence, made Important modifications in lhc draft treaty. But In Ils
principles they stand by it.
"They believe that it Is not only a
just settlement of the great war, Iiut
that It provides the. basis upon whicli
the peoples of Europe wish to. meet
together in friendship and Iiuallty.
"At the same time, il creates the
machinery for the peaceful adjustment of all International problems to
discussion  anil  consent  and  whereby

«
the settlement of t»l!t itself can be
modified from time to time as new
facts and conditions arise,
"It Is not based entirely on a general consideration of events of 1914-18.
It would not be a peace of justice If
it were. Hut It represents a sincere
and deliberate attempt tn establish a
reign of law, based upon tlie consent
of tbe governed, and sustained by the
organized opinion of mankind which
was the agreed basis of the peace,
Will   Force Terms.
"As such the treaty in ils present
form must be accepted or rejected.
The allied and associated powers
therefore request a decision from the
Gorman delegation within five days
that they are prepared to sign the
teraty as now amended. If they decide within the period that they are
prepared to sign thc treaty ns it
stands, arrangements will be made for
the immediate signature of peace at
Versailles. In default of such declaration, this communication constitutes
the notification provided for in article
11 of the convention of February 16,
IDlfl, prolonging the armistice signed
on the lth of November, 1918, and
again prolonged by tbe agreement of
December 13, 1918, nnd January 16,
1919, the said armistice will then terminate aud the allied and associaled
powers will take such steps as they
think needful lo force their terms,
"Section I. Th,e German counter
proposals entirely conflict with the
agreed basis.of peace. They provide
that great majorities of Indisputably
Polish populations .shall he kepi undci;
German rille. They desire to secure
access to the sea .to a nation of 10,
000,000 people, whose natioanis are in
tlie majority alt the way to the coast,
in order ot maintain territorial connection between Hast and West Prussia, whose trade has alawys been
mainly sea borne. They cannot, there
fofe, be accepted bj; the Allied and
Associated Powers. At the same lime,
In certain cases, the German note has
established a case for rectification
which will be made, and in view of
tlie contention that L'per Silesia,
though inhabited by a 'wo to one majority of Poles, 1,250,000 10*0,000,000 by
the llilO Gorman census, wishes to
remain a part of Germany, they are
willing that the question of whether
or not Kpper Silesia should form a
part of tiormany or Poland* should be
determined liy thc vote of the inhabitants themselves.
Saar Basin.
"In regard ot the Saar basin, the
regime proposed by the Allied and
Associated Powers is to continue 15
years. This arrangement they considered necessary both to the general
scheme of reparation and in order that
Prance may have immediate and certain compensation for tbe wanton destruction of her national coal mines.
The district has been transferred, not
to franco's sovereignty, but to tho
control tif the society of the league
of nations. This method has the double advantage tbat it involves no annexation, while it gives possession »l
the coal fields to Franco and maintains the economic unity of the district so important to interest of Inhabitants, At the end of IT, years,
the fixed population, which in tho
meanwhile will have hud control of
Its own local affairs under governing
supervision of' the league of nations,
will have complete freedom to decide
whether it wishes union with Germany, union with Trance, or the, continuance of tiie regime provided for
In the treaty.
"As to the territories which it is
proposed to transfer from Germany to
Denmark and Belgium', some of these
were robbed liy Prussia by force, and
in every case tbe transfer will only
take place as the result of a decision
of Inhabitants themselves taken under
conditions which will ensure complete
freedom lo vote.
Will   Not   Return   Colonies.
"Finally, lhc Allied and Associated
Powers are satisfied tbat the native
Inhabitants of the Gorma neolonies are
strongly opposed to being again
hroubht under Germany's sway; and
the record of German rule, tlu: traditions of the government and tho use
lo which these colonies were put as
bases from which to prey on the commerce of the world, make it Impossible for the Allied and Associated Powers lo return them to Germany, or to
entrust them to her responsibility for
training aud educating of the Inhabitants.
"For these reasons tile Allied and
Associated Powers are satisfied tbat
their territorial proposals are both In
accordance with the agreed basis of
peace and are necessary to the future
peace of Europe. They are, therefore
not prepared lo modify them except
in the respects laid down.
"Arising out of the territorial seU
tlement are the proposals in regard
to International control of rivers. It
is clearly in accordance with the
agreed basis of tbe peace that International and states should have secure access tn the sea ..long rivers
which are navigable tn their territory.
They believe thai tlie arrangements
they propose are vital to the free life
of the international states. They do
uot think they ale any derrogution of
Ihe rights of the other riparian states.

VANCOUVER, B. C:. .lune IG.—
The Vancouver World' was the only

tbe dispute between printers and publishers which compelled the Provinco

has the  following to announce:
"Growing oul of the strike serious

"Objection was taken by local printers to tbe text of two half page advertisements ordered for insertion in
the two evening papers. One of these
was submitted by the Citizens' league,
the other by tbe Returned Citizens'
Law and  Order league.
"Willi respect to the first, the World
chapel took exception to a clause
reading:
"'Will ymi allow any union to destroy the fredom of the press as the
printers'   union   have  attempted?'
"Objection   was  taken  to  Ihe  entire

"A similar protest was made by the
Province chapel. Tbe World management took the position that the advertisements must be first set. and
after being set any representations
showing them unfair or untrue would
be heard.' This was done by tbe World

It Is not necessary to use a painful

inflammatory and, therefore, dangerous and against tin- public inlerest.
"Tbe Province chapel not only declined to set Ihe offending clause In
the Citizens" advertisement even when
amended by the advertiser, but declined to set the soldier advertisement
at all. They further excised a paragraph from the Province report, of the
arena meeting, and finally passed a
resolution which was served on tbe
management that they would set no
more advertisements of tbe Citizens'
league or Returned Citizens' Law and
Order league unless passed by Ibe
conciliation committee. .Mr. Kurd*.*,
thereupon issued a statement pointing
out that this would compel tin- Province to suspend publication; calling on
his workers to observe their contract
and asking ibose who refused to continue al work to leave tiie news room.
Thereupon the Province chapel withdrew, and the Inter editions of that
paper wore cancelled.
Ordered Back to Work.
"The. Sun paper, which bad a disagreement witli its staff of Saturday
morning over an editorial to which
tho chapel objected, has not yet. resumed, negotiations to that effect last
night having proved fruitless. President M. G. SeotL of tlie International
Typographical union today wired that
he bad ordered the Sun chapel back to
work immediately."
Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Don't use prepared shampoos or anything else that contains too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes tho
hair brittle and is very harmful. Just
plain muisified cocoanut oil (which is
pure und entirely greaseless) is much
better than anything else you can uso
for shampooing, as this can't j/ossibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoontuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses
out easily and removes every particle
of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
M. The hair dries quickly and evenly
und it leaves it fine and silky, bright,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get muisified cocoanul oil
at most any drug store, lt is very
cheap and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in tbe family for months.

It is concise and definite,

Astounding   Figures   Show   Up   When
One Stops to Consider Expense
and Receipts From Big Mill.
TOLEDO. — The thing discussed
most nowadays in connection with tlie
big bout is the vast sums to be patd
Wlllard and Dempsey for less than an
hour's work.
Willard has heen promised $100,000
and Dempsey $27,000. These sums
are exorbitant and entirely' out ot
place. But those who figure ln this
way have evidently lost sight of tho
proposition lhat competition in boxing
as well as in any other business is
all right. It serves to stimulate trade
and gives the public a chance to get
a fair return for its money.
But sometimes vigorous competition
has a baneful influence on boxing, lt
helps to make tho pugilists arrogant
and paves the way for exorbitant demands. It is only Just that a fighter
should get well paid for his services.
Hut the club which takes all the
chances and must sustain its reputation for honesty with the public suffers ln the end.
Profits Enormous.
When any kind of a bout could be
.ought in New York, from a four-
round to a finish, the profits of a club
iu that big town were enormous. Two
or three big encounters placed one oC
these clubs on a solid financial foot'
ing. It was nothing uncommon for
ono of these Institutions to make from
$20,000 to $30,000 on one battle alone.
And these contests were not far
apart, either. They were held with
considerable freijueney and invariably
drew a packed house,
.Most of these clubs were controlled
by politicians, who had a monopoly
on the business.
Jeffries, Corbett, Sharkey, Sullivan,
McCoy and others of the old and famous pugilists were paid vast sums for
battles they fought in and around New
York.
Tom Sharkey said recently tiiat in
five matches covering a period of
little over two years In which lie was
me of the principals he divided with
ills manager a net profit of something
like $100,000, or an average ot $20,000
r eacli  scrap.    From  this one can
.ally glean just how much thc clubs
made.,
Frisco No Comparison,
San Francisco cannot be compared
as a fighting town to New York. Taking Boston and Philadelphia and
Greater New York itself, these New
Vork clubs had a population of nearly
0,000,000 to draw from.. The price ot
admission to these mills was no less
than $3 und not more than $5.   (
The cost to the out-of-town sport to
witness*j*.hose essays would not amount
to more than $20, figuring that lie was
of more frugal habits and to the local
ring-goer about $10.
The last fight between Jim Jeffries
and .Mm Corbett at San Francisco
drew nearly a $50,000 gate, ln New
Vork if one of the" championship
matches went below- this, amount the
club and the fighters were disappointed.
Liberal percentages weer allowed to
the principals, and they abused the
public's encouragement and patronage
liy putting up ,sliady encounters. Tlie
clubs weer compelled to pay handsomely for licenses in San Francisco
to hold fights.
Was No Tax.
ln New York in the halcyon days of
the game there was no such tax. Outside ol paying for rent, lights and
preliminary bouts, the club expenses
there were small. In bouts between
third raters at the Broadway Athletic
club, which were held about four times
eacli month, the receipts averaged no
less than $5000 for eacli mill. Ono
dull alone cleared $100,000 in one year.
In fact, there ls perhaps no other
city in the world that would havo
paid over $150,000 to see a ten-round
bout such as New York paid when
Willard and Moran came together.
London, England, is a much larger
city than New York, but it would not
likely have paid $150,000 to see two
men box 10 rounds. In London, in
fact, the receipts at boxing matches
compared to the sums received in this

aud the fairs at Birmingham and Glasgow by the municipal corporations and
chambers of commerce of those cities,
hut under the auspices of the board
of trade.
These fairs, which have been held
unnually since 1915, were somewhat

commensurate with the magnitude of
Uritish industry.

drugs and druggists' sundries, musical
instruments, scientific instruments,
toys and sports goods.

oil, etc., India rubber goods, machinery bolting of all kinds, motorcycles
and cycles; accessories for motor
cars, cycles and aeroplanes; sanitary

to British manufacturing firms whose

situated within the British Empire, and
which arc not controlled hy foreign
interests. Exhibitors are not permit
ted to exhibit goods other than those
they actually manufacture. From the
foregoing it will be noted tiiat Cana
dian manufacturers are eligible as ex
hiiblors,

In London a
$10,000 gate Is considered large. They
offer, as a rule, tho men paltry purses,
und the pugilists are generally glad
to get them, too.
Figures on $300,000.
Rickard counts on taking in over
$300,000 at tlio gate in Toledo, lt will
take nearly $250,000 to pay tho expenses of the fight. Tlie fighters, their
training expenses, the cost of officials
and help will amount to nearly $160,-
000.
The arena which Rickard proposes
building will cost nearly $75,000. The
lumber will bring one-third of that
perhaps when thc fight Is over. So
the arena may be put down as costing
$50,000. Then there arc all tho other
expenses.
Interested with Rickard in the venture is Frank Flotirnoy of .Memphis.
It the two clear up $25,000 each on the
venture they will bo lucky.
If nothing happens botween now and
then, Chicago will send tho biggest
crowd to Toledo on .lull* *i it has ever
sent to a championship battle.
Members of the Chicago, Illinois and
other athletic clubs of Chicago are already making plans for the trip, and
the flow eastward from here on July

Specks Floating
Before His Eyes
When specks start to float before
the eyes, when everything turns black
for a few seconds and you feel as if
you were going to faint, you may rest
assured that your liver is not working
properly.
The essential thing to do in all cases
where the liver is slow, lazy or torpid,
is to stir it up by the use of a medicine
that will clear away all the waste and
poisonous matter from the systepi and
prevent as well as cure all tho troubles
arising from this accumulated mass
which has collected in the system.
Keep the bowels open by using Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills and you will
have no liver trouble of any kind. They
will clear away all the waste and effete matter which has collected and
make the liver active and working properly.
Mr. John R. Morrison, Grand River
Falls, N.S., writes: "Several months
ago I was troubled with a sour stom*
ach and had specks floating before my
eyes. I took five vials of Milburn's
Laxa-Liver Pills, which cured and
cleaned my blood before any length of
time. I told my friends about it and
they got some, and they, too, find
themselves different since they took
them. I recommend your pills very
highly."
Milburns Laxa-Liver Pills are 25c a

receipt of price by the T. Milburu Co.,
