The document Is of considM-ab'e length, and is understood to be V not unqualified acceptance of the - British demands, though it is generally satisfactory. Playing Bew York's Policy. In the Pravda, M. Probrazhensky, a noted publicist, declared that Curzon is "playing the policy of New York" in minimising the importance of Russian trade to England.

Meighen Says If Fielding Sincere He Will Take Up the States' OHer OTTAWA, June 5. — A suggestion that Hon. W. S. Fielding, minister of finance, commence reciprocity negotl atlons with the I'nited States by meeting that government on the clause In tbe Americar itariff offering trade in bituminous coal, if that class of coal were made free coming into Can ada, was made ln the house of com mona tonight by Rt Hon. Arthur Meighen, leader of the opposition, during discussion of a section of the budget resolution which places anthracite and lignite on the free list. The item carried. "Why don't you meet the United States on this offer?" Mr. Meighen asked. Canada Wants Duty, Says Yielding. Mr. Fielding replied that when the United States picked oat a particular item and offered reciprocity on that, he did not consider that a sound argument. People, of Canada, as a wholi approoved of a duty ou* bituminous coal. Mr. Meighen retorted that the argument of the minister that reciprocity was all right as long as Canada kept away from coal. The house would realize from this the measure of the value of the minister's attitude on reciprocity. "There will never be reciprocity in coal while the honorably minister is in office," ho declared. Mr. Fielding emphasized his belief in reciprocity. The United States bad given the president power to vary the tariff on certain commodities. He had selected a number of those things in which Canada was most vitally interested as a basis for an argument. In doing so, however, he was merely con- idering a. temporary arrangement, and not the broad principle of reciprocity, which he favored. A. W. Neill, Independent, Comox- Alberni, brought up the question of putting bituminous on the free list. when he asked Mr. Fielding why it was not given the same treatment as anthracite and lignite. Mr. Fielding replied that the differentiation went back to 1778. Mr. Neil said-* this did not explain the change now beign made as regards lignite, which was being added to the free list.

Tariff on Foreign Raisins Won't Be Raised Till Australia Signs Up OTTAWA, June 5.—The increased customs tariff on raisins will not go into effect until a trade agreement has been concluded with Australia. This is the effect of an amendment to the budget resolution proposed in the house by Hon. W. S. Fielding tonight, and adopted. The original budget resolution proposed a considerable Increase in the duties on raisins and dried currants, except when Imported under the British preference. The present customs duties per pound are: British preference, %c; intermediate and general, %c. Under the budget proposal, made with a view to encouraging importations from Australia, the duties would be: British preference, free; intermediate and general 3c per pound. , Tonight, however, Mr. Fielding intimated that it might be some time before the Australian government offered a return, and it was po- posed to let the existing duties remain in force. When a trade agreement was reached with Australia, the new rates could be brought Into effect by proclamation. The resolution was amended to this effect. One Progressive criticism charged that under the Increased duties the Canadian consumer would have pay four cents a pound more, or total, based on last year's consumption, of nearly a million and a half dollars. , British Preference Passes The resolution td grant an increase In the British preference on Imports entering Canada by Canadian ports was carried, That embodying another offer of reciprocity with the United States was held over, although Mr. Fielding Intimated thnt he would havo an amendment to provide that if the president of the United States determined to reduce duties on specified items, Canada might act similarly. The original resolution read "'reduce by 50 per cent," Tlie amendment strikes out the reference to 50 per cent. Before adjournment, the house passed all the sections affecting the: customs tariff, with the exception of three minor items, and the resolutions In regard tn drawbacks, with no exception. Reciprocity Amendment In ennnection with clause 2 of the budget resolution covering the provision for reciprocity with tho United ■tales, Hon. W. S. Fielding, minister nf finance, moved to strike out the words "by 50 per ,cont," when referring to reductions which might be made by the president of the United States, This would leave the way open to negotiate for any reductions which might be available. During the discussion of tho British preferential tariff changes, grant-1 ing a discount of 10 per ceht on the! present British preference rates un-j der certain conditions on goods tn*] tering through Canadian ports, Hon. H. H. Stevens, Conservative, Vancouver Center, asked the minister to consider extending the discount to goods entering via Pacific porta which had been transshipped ut Hongkong. Pacific Via Hongkong This was not against the spirit of the clause, he said. Mr. Fielding said this was a matter worthy of consideration. He thought the governor-in-council had power to deal with it under the i Tariff act. If sueh was not the case, he would have the matter gone into,1 and would see that power was is-' sued before the bill was put through! final stages. Robert Forke, Progressive leader, ■ thought the preference ought to ex-] tend to any and all ports. The I British market wns Canada's hope for years, and one of the present difficulties would disappear if larger trade with Britain were secured. The granting of an extra 10 per cent preference wns all right so far as maritime ports were concerned, but from' the western point of view the advantage would soon be eaten Op by the Increased cost of the long; haul. Mr. Forke wanted to help the maritime ports, but not at the expense of other parts of the country. Trade would eventually go to the cheapest route. Hon. James Robb and Hon. Jacques Bureau took tjie ground that thc finance minister's proposal would certainly induce shippers to come to Montreal and Quebec, and thus the western farmer would have moro and cheaper shipping space, and this would help also to reduce the railway deficit. Gentle Pressure Mr. Fielding added that this wns a sort of gentle pressure upon shippers to use Canadian ports. "It is a gentle persuasion on them, which we hope they will do any way," he said. Mr. Fielding said he knew the woollen industry was affected to some extent, but he had hoped that with the returning prosperity the loss that was being sustained frpm the small amount of protection being taken (Continued on rase Seven) Bonar Law's Secretary Attains Cabinet Rank RT.

The reports drawn up by the Belgian .experts and sent to Paris some time ago have been carefully examined, and their suggestions for allied control of certain . German monopolies, and other means ot obtaining money, are certain to bo discussed by the premiers. Since such collections of money would necessarily require some authority to enforce them, Le Temps suggests that they be tried in the Ruhr where the allies have authority in tho form of troops and physical control. Such remunerative administration of the Ruhr, with financial reforms. tho proper collection of taxes and similar measures, nya the newspaper, would serve aa an example to Germany, and make t easier fnr the Belgian government to do likewise iu the remainder ot the country.

G. Nelson, delegate from NVlsan, who gave a summary of the proceedings of the convention, at a meeting of the local branch of the Retail Merchants Association of Canada, last week. Another resolution, with the same purpose. of protecting the public, demanded lhat when a manufacturer makes both a "first" and a "second" In an article, each should bo clearly stamped with Its grade, so that a "second" could not Sw* confused with a "first." Mr. Nelson, who is president of the Nelson branch, announced that he presented an invitation to the delegates to hold their next convention in Nelson. After three or four votes, Merritt won the honor, tout by only one vote. Personal Property Tax Tho convention reiterated the demand for the abolition of the personal property tax. It discussed a proposal from Vancouver, Victoria and New 'Westminster, that the weekly half-holiday be abolished The coast cities, which profit a great deal from tourist traffic, eomplali'cd that they were losing much business through their stores being closed one afternoon a week.

Unfair Cartage Charge Whatl Vancouver wholesalers sell goods to retailers In Vancouver, they deliver* them anywhere in the city or suburbs free of charge. "When they Hell to an up-country merchant they charge him cartage to the depot. The convention passed a resolution against this practice on the ground that It was unfair. Protest was made against importers or manufacturers marking imported goods falsely as to counlry ot origin. The convention asked the Dominion government to mln it criminal offence, and to prosecute Under the Fraudulent Adv.ilisiug act any importer or manufacturer who marked goods ns coming from any country other than that In whiuh they originated. Among other resolutions Vere several which dealt with, the relations between wholesalers and retailers. Mr. Nelson mentioned that George S, Houghan, the British secretary, had been promoted to Dominion headquarters at Ottawa. A resolution of thanks to Mr. Nelson for having attended the convention, and for his interesting report, was passed. REMARKS OF CLERGYMAN UNCAp FOR So States Mayor Choquette in Protest Against Rev. Westman's Remarks Recent remarks by Rev. J. P. Westman from the pulpit of Trinity Methodist church were last night brought up at tho city council meeting by Mayor L. II. Choquette. quette. "On behalf of the city council I wish to protest against the sedition uttered against tho city council and the police by Rev. Mr. Westman," said Mayor Chcquette, . "ills words would lead tho people 'of the city lo believe that the city council would not Stand for thc enforcement uf laws. The statement that the police were being held back was an insinuation against me, and the police were never at any time held back by me or by the police commission," slated the mayor. "If anyone bad any information to lay .they should have done so to the proper authorities.

A few- weeks ago Mayor Choquette made a few comments, which he again reiterated tonight. Alderman Fleming—I think Mr. Westman's remarks were uncalled for, His accusations have never been discussed at any length in council, and it Is unfair to t\\*\ council to state that ■ no actions toward persecutions -were taken.

Nelson property owners will have an opportunity to vote today for the extension of the city power line to Balfour, Procter and Harrop. Conipletion of this line will enable the city to serve ranchers at 'these settlements and between WlHoW Point and Balfour. From Balfour the Florence Mine cunvpany will construct the line to Ainsworth, and when this line has been completed will hand title to It over to the city. Tlie Flor ence company Is contracting to take not less than $5000 worth of power a year and as a guarantee has already deposited $20,000 In cash to the city's credit as payment of -the minimum amount for four years. This sum the city is using to assist ln financing the construction of the West Aj-m line. From the Balfour-Alnsworth line, to be built by the Florence people, the city will be able to supply Qeen's Bay and the people of Ainsworth, as well as any other mines at. Ainsworth which may desire to purchase power. ; The deal Is a good one for the cty financially and is a splendid proposition from the viewpoint of the development of the district. Nothing helps Nelson so much as the extension to the surrounding country of comforts and conveniences which make the "district more attractive to settlers. Weight of Evidence As a wartime measure, preventative ot disease, French soldiers were Inoculated with an anti-typhoid serum. It had Home rather unpleasant effects though they were not prolonged. Now, an epidemic of, typhoid fever haB broken out In Paris, and three times as many women are reported to be affected as men. The serum Is protecting the males. This offers proof that the treatment has efficacy in warding , off disease. Yet there are those who contend that the serum not only does no good, but works harm, it. has been a long time alnce vaccination against smallpoxv waa discovered, but there are still those who refuse to admit its value. They go even further and allege Its injury to the victims. If It takes all so long nnd is so difficult to convert all to a doc - trine of which there seems to be Incontrovertible proof, Is it any wonder that reforms move slowly because there may be difficulty in demonstrating clearly the best method? Not every proposition that seems sound can be set forth with mathematical precision, and If nil could there would still be some who Would dispute the result. It is not wise to be credulous, but lt Is as srlevous an error to refuse to be influenced by weight of evidence.

Perhaps you know the symptoms ■loss of appetite, coated tongue, offensive breath, and our old arch enemy, constipation. The blood gets thin, and there is usually loss of weight. There aro the mental delusions, fear, and a desire to make away with oneself. , \ Now, why do I write about such a subject? Simply because thut in these postwar days when there is a tendency to depression in many of us, that we face this matter fairly and squarely. You say: Oh! What's the use. This melancholy streak is in our family, and so I can't help it. There's no use denying that hcr- Idity has its influence, because you can inherit a lazy liver and intestine, all right. Now, what's the tratment? Well, first, get some interest in life. An interest that will take you out doors, will help to occupy your mind. Take enough exercise or work outdoors that your body will just hunger for your food, and your intestines will bo stimulated to digest it, and to carry the was to matter completely out of the body. Also, you will be so tired that sleep will come to you .naturally and no drugs will be required. I>e you see- my- point? You will live the life your body was .intended td live and with a mind occupied by something other than yourself, you w^U get better. Most cases get better anyway, so there should be a 100 per cent cured by persistent treatment. WhatDoYouThink?

Magazine Says He Can't Waneta, B.C., June 5. 1923. To the Editor of The Dally News: Sir:—Perusing a magazine article on surplus population, the following paragraph caught my attention: "As for sending the children of the upper classes to the colonies, that Is -the climax of human folly. This writer has met many English gentle men in the colonies, and there Is not a more pitiable object under tbe sun. He has no chance ln any f>rof>sslon against the men born in the country He Is hopelessly devoid of the neces- siry 'smartness! to compete in business with Americans, Ch radians or even Australians. All he can do is to take a farm, and labor from morning to night with his own haiulu, with an Illiterate Pole on one side and an Italian on the other. He hates the country anq Ihe people of the country hate him His suns become stable boys, and his daughters, become 'lady helps.' and do the work of a servant for half the wag-e." What have our English settlers to say to this? Will they give me wherewithal to refute this bold iitatement? MALTHb'HIAN. | Ten Years Ago (The Dally News, Ju^e «, 1813) Capt. D. C.

LETHBRIDGE SEMI-PRO FOR TORONTO UNIFORM TORONTO, June 5. — Clark Pren- dergast, a Lethbrldge semi-professional baseball player, has arrived hero for a tryout with the Toronto International league club. PAPYRUS NOW FAVORITE FOR TODAnDERBf Displaces Town Guard Because Donoghue Up; Cold Snap Forecast LONBON, June 5. — The Derby festival opened today In dull, cold weather. For hours this morning a force of men was engaged In sweeping and clearing the course, while a small hand of enthusiasts viewed the candidates for tomorrow's race. The horses were given light exercise. Just hefore Town Guard was brought to the starting point for a workout, Victor Oilman, the son of Town Guard's trainer, discovered a large rusty Iron hoop and some stones about 400 feet from the post which, had they not been discovered, might have Injured the horse In the gallop. How the hoop came to be on the course, which had been thoroughly cleared, Is a complete mystery, but it Is not believed that lt was placed there with malicious Intent. Rectnt Winners Work Out Town Guard was given a oouplo of six-furlong gallops. He went well, and showed that he had quite recovered from his mishap of last week. Ellangowan, the winner of the 2000 guineas at New market, and other candidates were given light exercise, ln fact, the only one to stretch out was My Lord, who apparently had been backed for solid reasons. The persistent rumor thnt Steve Donoghue will ride My Lord Instead of Papyrus, was authoritatively denied this afternoon. The course is ln good condition, the rain having kept the earth from drying and cracking. No trainer need fear that his horse will come to harm. According to report, Legality, owned by Lord Furness, has been issued for tomorrow's race in a sum big enough to recover not only Legality's own value and the Derby stakes, hut a fair-sized stable commission as well. Contest It Open On* A glance at the wagering shows the open nature of the contest, but it appears likely that Papyrus, owned by B. Irish, will start the favorite, the exploits ot Donoghue at Epsom being a great factor. Donoghue is hopeful of making it three in a row, having won the last two Derby a on (Humorist and Captain Cuttle. The weather has been getting steadily warmer, hut the weather ex- peris delivered a bombshell this afternoon with the forecast of a sudden cold snap for tomorrow. Following were the odds in London tonight on the leading candidates: Thirteen to 2 against Papyrus; 7 to 1 against Pharaoh; lfi to 2 against Town Gua rd; 17 to 2 aga i nst Le - gality; 19 to 2 against Ellangowan; 100 to 8 against My Lord; 100 to 7 agntnst Knockando. all taken and offered; 25 to 1 against Salt Ash, taken; 25 to 1 against Twelve Pointer and Parth; 33 to 1 against Roger do Biisli; 35 to 1 against Bold ond Bad; 40 to 1 against Doric; 66 to 1 against Pnrtumnu and Apron, taken ond offered; 1&0 ■. to 1 against Safety First- and Top Boot, offered; 200 to 1 against Canova, taken and offered.

Mr Fork** observed that the cause of the depression In the woolen trade was not overproduction, hut underconsumption. If prices of woolens could 'ho reduced to a point where the people could afford to purchase them there would be a great demand. He wondered how many people in 'Canada were forced to go without underclothing in winter because they could not pay lhe price for It. Knitting Mill Cloiee .Sir Henry Drayton, Conservative, York West, asserted that the price of woolens had Increased last yc«r. He also remarked that a Canadian ki'itting mid hud closed down.

Los Angeles, 5; Sacramento, 3. .Mr. Forke expressed the opinion that middlemen were great factors in enhancing prices. Ho wished to dispel the Idea that farmers were opposed Jo the manufacturers. "We aro not fighting manufacturers, are fighting a system which Wt think has worked badly in this country," he paid. He- thought It would ho a good thing if the manufacturers and farmers could get closer together. Illustrating the argument that middlemen enhanced prices greatly, Mr. Forke referred lo the casp of a western farmer who had heon charged J2.R0 for a box of apples. He had found on opening the apples a card on which It wm stated that the producer of the apples had received 40 cents for the box. Mr. Fielding said that raw wool Imports into Canada had increased from fl,2r.0,000 pounds in 1920. to 18,250,000 pounds in 1922. This would Indicate a demand for outside wool for manufacture In Canada. The resolution respecting change* In the customs tariff was considered Respecting the duty of. three cents a pound on raisins and dried cur rants, intermediate and general tar iffs, Mr. Fielding intimated thnt H might he some tlmo hefore the Australian government would manifest its concurrence and offer any reduction. It was, therefore, proponed by art amendment that the .old rates should remain for tho time ■being,* with tha condition that the new rates might be brought into effect by LADIES' KHAKI SHIRT, with pockets $3.50 and $4.25 These goods are specially selected for Ladies' wear and are suitable for Fishing, Hiking and Riding.

Robb regarding his tour of Australia in connection with a trade agreement with that country. Mr. Robb said that the Australian government would shortly be submitting lis proposal to the Australian parliament, and ho ■ would then be in a posltlion to give tho house par* tlculars. L. P. Bancroft, Progressive, Sel kirk, was glad the government had] decided not to put into effect the | "|W per cent increase" in the tariff: tax on raisins. Such an Inerease in j the duty would meon an Increased' price of four cents a pound to the, Canadian consumer. Based on last year's consumption, that meant an Increase of $1,489,538. And last year. Canada purchased 30,000,000 pounds i of raisins from tho United States, and only 180 pounds from Australia. Mr. Robb argued tho Australian production was growing reeontly. (Vreat Britain had a tax of 2 1-4 eepts a pound, and they were doing better ln introducing a free British pref-prenro,- ■• Ml. Fielding paid that It had been Intimated. ta ,bim that; If they made, thla cona*|H)JT it would go a long way toward*'persuading the Australian government to come to terms on the preference for Oreat Britain. A. J. Lewis, Progressive, Swift Current, thought lhat tho duty on raisins wait rather, au expensive method of semiring an agreement with Australia, especially as Canada had an ex- cfcdingly good source of supply near at hand. The item !as amended carried. Sugar Items Pate Committee Tariff Items 134 and 135, applicable to Imports of refined and raw sugar, passed the committee with practically no discussion. Tho tariff item on cigarets also carried. Items passed rapidly until tbat fixing tha rate of duty on separators was reached, when D. F. Kellrver, Progressive, Edmonton, asked whether it would not be proper to abolish the tariff, and pay the manufacturers a sum of money. Mr. Meighen said that this seemed an Item to w'hich Mr. Keddner's theory might well be applied. Surely he was not going to accept a simple rejection by the finance committee for Anmethlng Tor which he had agl tated for years. "I thought the right honorable gen tleman would 'recognize, the value of my argurtient," came back Mr. Kellner, "and would support it with an argument of his own." "I cannot nee any value In the argument," returned Mr. Meighen, "and I never did. Rut why does he not press it? Has he given up hope?" Mr. Kellner went on to stress the view that tire duties paid by the government Itself on typewriters would ba sufficient to pay the en lire income of a company assembling typewriters in Canada. Election Machiges The item carried, and when that regarding slumping machines was reached, Robert Gardiner, Progressive, Medicine Hat, asked if they were the kind used in elections. "I presume my honorable friend refers to the present campaign ln Ontario," remarked Mr. Fleldlrtg. After this Item had been adopted, T. VV. Caldwell, Progressive, Victoria- Carleton, advocated putting fertilizer.1* on the free list ln connection with an item to remove the duties Trom machinery used for the maunfa-rturn of fish meal, stock ami poultry rood, and fertilizers from fish and waste. He wild thnt in 1320 tbe present premier hnd advocated putting fertilizer.1* on the free list. Sir Henry Drayton demanded protection for spinners or botany yarn.
