resentatlves who attended the lm-
migration conference here today meet
Hon. J. A. Robb privately Thursday
■sornlng, they will be liven definite
Information resrsrdlne; the govern-
s future Immigration policy.
This announcement was made by
I the minister Just before the confer,
ence rose for the day. He expressed
a. desire to see official, of transportation companies at his office in
the morning, after which he would
f*f the provincial delegates, Several of the provincial representatives
complained, during the afternoon,
that they could not discuss the Immigration policy f.horoughly unless
they had placed before them some
concise program dealing with future
policy.
The conference win conclude its
session   tomorrow  afternoon.
Delegates from every province except Manitoba and British Columbia
were present, and all had an oppor
tunity of dealing with the lmmlgrn
tlon situation aa It affected th. part
of  the  Dominion  they  represented.
Great stress was laid on the migration of young people from Canada
to th. United States by spokesmen
of the maritime provinces, Quebec
and Ontario.
Saskatchewan   Not  Worrying
Premier Dunning of Saskatchewan,
on   the   other   hand,   expressed   the
belief that. United States Immigrants
coming    to    Canada    might   oalance
tk» number of emigrants leaving the
eowitry   forth.   United   States.    He
qualified   thia remark   by  reminding
the conference that he spoke for an
agricultural province only, and knew
B»Ulng of condition. In Ontario and
Quebec,  where   there   was   much   in-
4ostrlal activity.   As the federal government maintained control of crown
lands and natural  resource, in  Saskatchewan, that province would continue  to   expect   the   Dominion   government   to   look   after   land   settlement and  Immigration  in  the west,
Premier   Dunning   told   the   conference.    He   reminded   delegates   from
Ontario and Quebec, who complained
R about the way railway fares affected
■ Immigration,   that   the   cost   of   the
rf whole service overseas was charged
J against th. revenue produced by the
I natural  resources  of  the  west.    But
u the   premier  said   his   province  was
Braady and anxious  to aid  lmmlgra-
J tlon to Saskatchewan by placing the
* reeources of its employment agencies

siflclals.
j H. questioned the seriousness of
the emigration problem, so far as
people in the western provinces were
concerned. H. pointed out that the
stream ran ln both directions, and
while It was Impossible to establish
a d>lntt. comparison, the number of
families going north and south by
the prairie route seemed evenly bal-

British labor Party So Far
Refuses Accord; Fight io
Constituencies
LONDON. Nor. 14.—(By Associated
Press.)-—Pending Premier Baldwin's
further exposition of his protection
1st policy, which . will be made In
tbe course of the debate on the Labor
censure motion in the house of com
mons tomorrow, political interest 1
wholly absorbed ln active prepare
tlons. in the various constituencies
for   a . sharp   election   campaign.
The 'Cabinet had a ion*; sitting
today, when, it Is believed, outlinei
of the government's policy were laid
down. There is evident misgiving
and nervousness among the members
of the . Conservative party generally
aa contrasted with the enthusiasm
displayed ln the Liberal and Labor
ranks.
Lineup   Very   Different
Tbe present campaign differs from
a similar campaign which carried the
Liberals triumphantly to victory in
1906. When Joseph Chamberlain
launched his famous protectionist
move which smashed his party there
were practically only two big parties
in parliament—Conservatives and
Liberals—with a very small Labor
party and a few Irish Nationalists.
Now the Labor party In the house
of commons consists of 144 members
and Is the official opposition.
If the reunited Liberal and Labor
parties could be induced to cooperate there ls a very general belief
that the protectionists would be defeated. The Labor party, however,
has consistently refused to cooperate with the Liberals, and as a
consequence the Liberals are fighting Laborltea in the constituencies
and giving seats to the Conserva
lives   on   minority   votes.

WINNIPEO.    Nov.    l4.-i-An    e*arly
referendum on the liquor question in
Saskatchewan   was  forecast   by   Sen
ator H.  W.  Laird of Reginan In an
interview   here   today.
"While I am not In the secret of
the government,*' said Senator Laird,
"the result ln Alberta has created
a remarkable impression on the peo>
pies' minds and has predisposed them
to such an extent that an immediate
referendum  Is  virtually a necessity.'"
A petition signed by 80,000 modera
tlonlsts would be presented to the
government very shortly, and this
would likely result in a liquor referendum early In the new year,
he   predicted.
BERLIN WASHES HANDS;
PASSES   POWERS   BUCK
Reichstag Opposes Policy but
Stresemann Fixes Twenty-
fifth for Severance
BERLIN. Nov. 14.—After November
25 Germany no longer will be able
to meet the drain upon her exchequer for the payment of unemployment doles in the Ruhr and
the Rhlneland, and will then set
both these regions adrift, permitting
them   to   shift  for   themselves.
This direct statement was made
in   official   auarters   here   tonight.
Unless Chancellor Stresemann arrives at a different conclusion after
pending conferences with leaders in
the occupied areas, as the relchstag
opposes such a policy, tt is now believed that the Immediate future of
the Rhineland and the Ruhr will be
wholly determined by the nature of
agreements which the local leaders
there are able to enter into with
the   French   and   Belgian   authorities.
The unemployment doles which the
Gorman government Is paying out
to unemployed men and women In
the Rhlneland and the Ruhr will
amount to 200.000,000 gold.marks In
the  next  10  days.
Autonomous  States  Impossible
An autonomous state, ln the present stage of occupation and under
prevailing economic and social conditions, is viewed In Berlin circles
as inexpedient and not feasible, and
the Inclination in government quarters appears to favor a plan to
hold the occupying powers responsible for getting the local populace
fed and back to work and otherwise
readjusting completely the desolated
conditions in all lines;
In the event the latter solution
ls adopted the Berlin government
will invest the local German authorities with plenipotentiary powers
authorizing them to deal with the
French, Belgian and British authorities; thus making the occupied zones
temporarily wholly independent of
official Intervention by the central
or   Prussian   governments-
For   Indefinite   Period
There ls an apparent desire to
pass along the buck to France nnd
Belgium, leaving the German populace to make it peace with the occupying powers for an indefinite period
and permitting the central government to wash Its hands of the legacy
bequeathed to It by nine months of
passive   resistance.
If this solution ls adopted by the
central government it will Incidentally presage a complete reversal
of procedure with reference to reparations, and while no statement ls
forthcoming in this respect it is
presumed the creditor powers would
have to enter into separate agreements with the Industrialists regarding deliveries, while the question of gold payment would be protested by Germany on the ground
that she was deprived of uninterrupted disposition of her complete
economic organisation, or a demand
would be made for a postponement
of cash payments until the country's financial situation had sufficiently recuperated to warrant  them.
Tho impending decisions with respect to the Ruhr and the Rhine-
land, therefore, have a weighty bearing on Germany's foreign relations
as well as on the further trend
of  internal   events.
Bonos British Farmer
Who Pays Fair Wage;
Cabinet Formulates It
LONDON. Nov. 14.—By Canadian Press Cable.)—It is understood thst tho cabinet has approved tho proposal to assist
British  agriculture  by  a   subsidy
fif £1 an acre for all arable
and on condition that minimum
wage of 30 shillings weekly shall
bo paid to farm laborers by
esch applicant for tho subsidy.
. It Is estimated on tho present

of the subsidy will be £11,000,000

The matter was discussed thia
evening by the parliamentary
agricultural committee, which approved   of   the , scheme  generally.
Eight Months Unfed,
Big Python Billed

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 14.—■
A jjiant python at the Philadelphia zoo has gone eight
months without food because
it will eat nothing but a live
animal. Keepers have refrained
from feeding the serpent through
fear that the. Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals mlrxht object. This tear
has been dispelled, and next
week it will be -Ted. Its meat
will consist of a live pig
weighing   50   pounds.
Faced with this problem an
afficlal of tha Soclfty for the
.Prevention of. Cruelty to Animals   has   decreed:
"The snake must be fed, no
matter how. While It may be
cruelty to let the pig suffer
such a death It is far more
cruel to let .the snake expire

DUESSELDORF, Nov. 14.—The negotiations between the Ruhr industrial leaders and the Interallied mission for control of factories and
mines have? broken down, the Germans having failed to accept three
of the 21 clauses, in the draft agreement. »
As the negotiations have lasted
four week**, the. communique adds.
and the disputed articles had been
known to the German delegates since
November 6, the allied authorities
considered prolongation of the discussion useless, as they regarded
the   text   as   definite.
Therefore they decided that the
negotiations most be considered
closed. -. >V ,.
Imprisonment   -for   Failure
The two points which the industrialists find hardest to accept are,
first, the French demand for a
definite amount of reparation coal
based on the 1922 output Instead
of a simple percentage of the output, and, second, the French stipulation of the right to arrest men
and Imprison industrialists if the
agreement Is  not  kept.
Another disputed point, according
to a French source, is the demand
for a certain percentage of Rhine
shipping for coal transportation to
France.
To offset the reports that the recent agreements with Otto Wolff
and the Krupps have not yielded the
expected returns the French assert
that the mines fully controlled by
the Krupps have reached 60 per
cent of nominal production, while
those In which the Krupps have
only a minority interest have not
yet  resumed  work.

ACCUSE INDIAN
Tariff Commission to Study
Facts to See if Should
Raise Duty
WASHINGTON. Nov. 14.—(By Associated Press)—The United States
tariff commission has decided to investigate the Import duties on wheat.
A thorough study of the whole question of wheat rates. It is announced
today, has been ordered, and a preliminary hearing will be held November   16.
The-commission's machinery Is to
be set In motion ln advance of the
Initial public hearing, a committee
of Its agricultural experts and representatives of tho department of agriculture beginning immediately the
assembling of information as to
whether the present tariff duty of
30 cents a bushel is adequate to protect the interests of the producers
in the United States.
Will  Take Three Months
Although the work is scheduled
to go forward as speedily as possible,
commission members asserted tonight
that they could not hope to complete
the task in leas than three months.
The order for the hearing was issued in the hope, it was said, that
a preliminary meeting of all interested parties might result in expediting  final   action.
At the same time doubt was expressed generally at the committee's offices that anything could be
done in time to afford relief for
the  producers  of  this  year's  crop.
The commission's chief problem Is
the determination of whether the
30-cent duty, carried by imported
wheat, offsets the difference in production costs here and in Canada.
Claim Caiuiuck Cost Lower
It has been generally conceded
that Canadian farmers can put their
wheat on the market at a lower
cost, but the exact differential must
be determined by the commission.
Commission officials said they expected to study information as to
conditions and prices everywhere In
the World, but .asserted that the
present question appeared to be
limited largely to Canadian imports.
The commission's action resulted
from an appeal by Representative
Sydney Anderson of Minnesota, president ' of the wheat council of the
United States, that the flexible provisions of the tariff law be utilized
to increase the duty the maximum of
50 per cent allowed by the statute.

POLICY OF AID
TO AGRICULTURE
South Okanagan Member
Charges Oliver Government With Fanner Exodus
VICTORIA, Nov. 14.—A strong plea
for a more aggressive agricultural
policy in this province, to the end
that the growers may be assisted
to secure increased markets, and
greater development, waa made in
,|the legislature today by J. W. Jones,
Conservative,   South   Okanagan.
He criticised the government for
*»Its alleged failure to bring down a
practical plan to encourage immigration, and he charged the Oliver administration with being responsible
for the exodus of British Columbians
to the south. He declared the burden of taxation was forcing farmers
In all parta of the province to give
up   their  holdings.
He advocated the establishment of
a system of agricultural loans, similar to those Introduced By the Conservative government in 1916.
Heavier Coal Penalties
Some amendments to the Coal
Mines Regulation act were Introduced tonight by Hon. William Sloan,

Others  Unsettled
NEW YORK. Nov. 14.—Extreme
weakness characterized today's foreign exchange market. Demand sterling fell to a new low for the year,
and French francs established a
record  low  price  for all  time.
Sterling declined nearly 4 cents to
$4.33 7-18, while French francs receded to 16 1-4 points at one time
to 6.39 1-2 cents. Both these exchanges rallied weakly in the late
afternoon.
Practically all of the continentals
and South American rates were unsettled by sterling's heaviness, Hoi- j
land receding 32 points to 37.61 cents,'
and Italian lire falling off nearly 10
points   to   4.26    1-2   cents.
Why  Sterling   Weakens
Factors considered as contributing
to the decline in sterling were summarized by bankers as follows:
Transfer of balances from London
to New York: Injection of fiscal
policies Into coming British general
elections: usual autumn imports of
cotton, grain and other agricultural
products into England; flow of credits to establish balances to meet
payments of Interest and principal on
the British war debt; large volume
of loans to fotoign countries and
dominions bv London, and small demand for sterling by importers in
New   York.

Complete Cessation of Every;
Kind of Payment Is
Decided Upon
LONDON, Nov. 14.—-Germany hart
decided to repudiate the Treaty of
Versailles and not comply with either
the reparations clause or any other
of the clauses of the treaty as Ionic
as the French and the Belgians
occupy the Ruhr, says a dispatch
to  the  Dally  Mail from  Berlin.
Th« government's attitude, says the
Dally Mall, is that repudiation follows logically the theory that the
occupation of the Ruhr infringes the
treaty and that as long as the
French and Belgians persist in breaking the terms of the treaty Germany
is  excused  from  observing  them.
Central   News   Hears   It,  Tew
LONDON. Nov. 14.—The complete
cessation of every kind of reparation payment by Germany was semiofficially announced tonight, according to a dispatch to the Central
News  from  Berlin.
This action was taken on" thel
ground that the Treaty of Versailles had been violated by France
and that, therefore, it could, not be
observed  by  Germany.

FORT WILLIAM. Ont., Nov. 14.—
Total shipments of all grain from
the head of the lakes today amounted
to 2.HM00 bushels, the largest shipment— 445.000 bushels -of wheat—
going out on the United States
steamer Colonel J. N. Schoonmaker.
. This was a comparatively light
day, and will probably be considerably increased tomorrow with 18
boats reported as under the spouts
this evening and five more awaiting their turn at the elevators.
A curious change has come over
the lake freight situation since the
United States boats have come freely
Into the Canadian trade, the rate
from Duluth having risen to 4 1-2
cents to Buffalo, which is higher
than the rate from Fort William

Before my first baby

One day a friend of

Mr. Hoadley believed that married
men with families made the best
settlers in the went, as they were
anchored to their homes, and had
not the disposition to drift, which
was found ln single men.
"ln the past," he said, "the steamship companies have been selecting
i-fs immigrants. When they reach
the country, men are found unfit to
entes. it, and must be sent back with
great Inconvenience to all concerned."
Ontario Wants Action
. Hon. John S. Martin, minister of
agriculture for Ontario, felt that the
',iederal government should acquaint
the provincial representatives with
its future Immigration program so
Jthey would have something definite
to discuss. He said Ontario was
confronted with a serious industrial
situations at the present time,
young men were attracted by the
high wages offered in Detroit, Buffalo and other large United States
cities  along  the  boundary   line.
Hon. James W. Lyons, minister of
lands and foVests in the Ontario government, felt that the government
should Beek Immigrants in Europe
rather than In the United States, as
the neighboring republic was not
likely to prove a very prolific recruiting field,
Quebec Needs Farmers
Keeping the population already in
the province from drifting to the
west and the United States, was one
of the important questions before
the administration of which he was
a member, according to J. E. Per-
rault, minister of mines in the Quebec government. Farmers and farm
helpers were urgently required In
Quebec,   he   declared.
Settlers with sufficient money to
buy their farms and machinery, was
what Nova Scotia needed most ln
the way of Immigration, according
to the opinion advanced by Hon. D.
A. Cameron, provincial secretary.
While tho province could absorb a
reasonable number of farm helpers,
Mr. Cameron did not look upon this
phase of the situation as at all acute.
Maritimea Report Exodus South
The representative for Nova Scotia
raised the question of emigration to
the United States. He said that
the number of young people who
were leaving that province was positively acute. Unless some scheme
could be devised whereby the provincial government, wrth the assistance of the federal government,
could render financial assistance to
farm settlers lacking sufficient means
to set themselves up in business, Mr.
Cameron believed that Nova Scotia
might make up its mind to face a
number of lean years so far as Immigration was concerned.
New Brunswick was In practically
the same situation as Nova Scotia,
Hon. W. D. Mesereau, minister of
agriculture, Informed the conference.
Hon. J. H. Mayors, minister of
agriculture from Prince Edward
Island, described the situation there
as very similar to that existing in
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
The young people were leaving the
■.Island, he declared, and as farms became vacant, settlers with sufficent
means to buy and stock them would
be required.

they added that this In no way committed the commission to any pro

In ita formal order for an investigation, the committee said its in
qulry would take in data having a
bearing on production costs In competing countries, and In the United
States. The Investigation- abroad;
however, it was added, would be
confined largely to Canada, because
of the considerable shipments of

producers In the United VUtM who

Farm Federation IlialHlcilt
The committee was urg-*d again today to speed up its Inquiry, in on
appeal by the American farm bureau
federation, which declared, through
its Washington office, that the home
market would break under the strain
of Canadian shipments* aoiAhward, lf
the commission marked tlm*-. in its
investigation. The federation said, in
a statement, thnt the Canadian producer was obtaining from 6 to 13
cents a bushel more, for the world's
price, because of lower transportation   costs. (
The statement also cited numerous
statistics cf land values, and other
Items entering into production costs,
all tending to show the difference
existing in favor of the Canadians.
The federation suggested that con
Kress should raise the rate Itself, lf
the commission required too much
time ln gathering Information upon
which It could base Its recommenda
tlon to the president. The law- re

quality of American wheat at Minneapolis. It la pointed out that the
Canadian wheat ls worth five cents

CANUCK SALMON TRADE
SEES SALVATION AHEAD
Preference    Will    Swing    to    Canada
Whole of  Business  Now   Done by
Britain With  United States
MONTREAL. Nov. 14.—The British
preference of 10 shillings a hundredweight on Kmplre canned salmon,
lobster, crayfish and crabs will prove
the salvation of the Canadian sea
food canners. according to well-informed  Montreal export merchants.
"The preference means the elimination of American salmon from the
British markets." one exporter said.
"At present the United Kingdom imports 75 percent of the required
amount of the cheaper grades of
salmon from United States markets,
and the preference will result ln
the whole of this trade swinging
to  tho  Canadian  canners."
Firms in the canning business have
been holding back their sales for
the past two years becnuse of the
oversupply In the world's markets
and next year were threatening to
close  altogether.   It   was  stated.
With th*- preference effective they

"It Is Quite unnecessary to be engaged ln any agricultural pursuit to
realize that all * departments - of the
Industry are tn a very unsatisfactory
condition at the present time," said
C. 8. Squires of Robson, when addressing the delegates at the Koote
nay and Boundary Women's Institute
district conference, ln session yesterday afternoon, Oa the subject -of
"Agricultural   Problems.'
Newspapers and periodicals *ere _
day full of farmers' grief, continued
Mr. Squires, and' few farmers in face
of present conditions would encourage
their sons and daughters to engage
ln agriculture as a means of livelihood. Ten years ago the slogan had
been 'Back to the land." Today farming was a fine hobby for a rich
man, but was, as a means of livelihood, a strenuous proposition and * a
gamble. ■
Mr. Squires was of the opinion tHat
the unsettled conditions of European
affairs was -one of the chief* factdrs
for the unsatisfactory agricultural conditions of the day, and of an unsatisfactory fruit Industry.' Unemployment
in Great Britain, due to the breaking
up of the German empire, was estimated at from one and a half to two
million people. This unemployment
curtailed the export trade, which affected the prairie farmer, and thence
back onto the fruit grower, to a certain   extent.
Baying Power Low
Referring to the prairie condition*--,
Mr. Squires stated that with tin* bfg-
gest wheat crop on record the buying
power of the farmer was low today,
owing to partly Inflated value* during
the war and to other progressen <f
the times. Prosperity had made ivany
careless in their farming .is well as
in their buying. An Improvement was,
however, shown In - tho-farmer of today, as there was a tendency to elii.-
inate the land miner and replays him
by the real farmer. Th's statement
was food for thought Or the fruit
trrower as well as for the wheat
farmer.
Unfavorable agricultural conditions
could be traced back to excessive
transportation -costs, which Beenied
largely uncontrollable at the present
time. Only means of control was -by
Intelligent organization. Transportation took a large share of the producers' profits. United States producers were beginning- to recognize
the value of cooperative marketing
and at present one-sfxth of tho farmers in the United States- were under
a   cooperative   marketing   movement:
The public generally were realizihg
tho fact that cooperative farmer organizations had the right to fix prices,
so that they may be reasonable enough
to find a piarket for all products
without a hangover.*' The cooperative
movement among farmers was today
considered a most economical sign.
'Work Togothsr
In the past, stated Mr. Squires, the
shipper had been the organisers In
the fruit Industry, and, he declared,
as long as the farmer allowed the
shipper to fix the, price for his product
Just so long would he be the slave
of the universe. Boards of trade
and Rotary clubs were taking an In
terest in the farmer, and there was
a tendency to cooperate for the benefit of the producer. While this was
encouragement to the farmer. It was
discouraging to note the Ideas of
some of the producers, as to the meaning of cooperation. If It meatit anything it meant working together for
the common good. The decrease per
capita consumption of fruit may have
been due to a decrease ln buying
power on the prairies, or to the increase In the Bale of citrous fruits.
Mr. Squires stated that in his opinion the high prices the farmer paid
for his apples three and four years
ago had a lot to do with the falling
off of the prflJrle consumption today.
New crops : and new varieties of
fruits* were coming into bearing today, ■ many of which would handicap
the sale ' of the more popular stand-
" Fc  --'■*-- -  ■'
day was the Independent shipper, then
came the grower who. broke his contract. But for the Associated Growers
1922 would have been a repetition of
the Ml failure. Mr. Squires hkd
every confidence ln the success of the
organization, and stated that wonders
had already been accomplished this
season. Mistakes had been made, but
a smooth -working organization «ould
not  be  created   In  a  year.
Great Britain's preference for colonial fruit and tho imposing of a duty
of five shillings per hundredweight
on foreign fruit should be heralded
with Joy by the fruit grower In British Columbia, as tn the past the United States had been a heavy exporter
to the British Isles. A plan was being formulated by the Associated
Growers 'for a trial Shipment of ap-
plea via tho Panama canal to the retail   trade   In  England.
Outside   Management   ratal
Owing to the broadness of the
Kooteay district, difficulties and problems In all commodities arise. Okanagan with a large tonnage arid small
area was better served. What was
needed to remedy this was a home
market. . Considering the district, the
growers thfcmserves were to blame for
lack of cooperation along these lines.
If the growers could not manage their
own district how could they expect
strangers to do It for thera? This
waa particularly true in tbe case of
the poultry industry, which was organized by the Vancouver Cooperative,
and managed ln a way by it. If the
management was such that producers
were unable to hold their contracts,
they, themselves, were - to blame: If
the subscriber to any .cooperative
scheme ceased to have anything to
do wltli the marfagemeiit' of the affairs if ceased to be a cooperative and
would Iooee support of members.
'   -   rtaehange   Broke   Promises
When the- British Columbia poultry.,
men's contracts had been signed three
things bad been promised, stated Mr.
Squires. The first, representation on
the directorate; second, storage facilities in Nelson, and, third, the privilege of choosing between a district
and a provincial pool. These promises
had not been kept and the directorate
had repeatedly passed the responsibility of their nonfulfillment from one
employee to another1. Tho ..directors,
themselves; were responsible for the
loss sustained, through their mlsman
agement. The producer was responsible for placing himself ln the hands
of the directors. In this little' district
alone, stated Mr. Squires, thousands of
dollars bad been lost The experiment
had been a costly one.' This, however,
did not follow that the principle, was
wrong.
Cooperation began at home; to have
cooperation organization was necessary, and a league of farmers era-
bracing all portions of agriculture
would be a great thing, he stated.
The great need of the farmer today
was not the education of how to produce, but what to do with his produce.

Women's Institutes Pass Resolution Against Washington and Oregon Fruits
On behalf of the Nelson Women s
institute Mrs. W. Garland Foster, at
yesterday, afternoon's session of the
women's "Institute conference, presented a resolution dealing with the fruit
Industry, which was unanimously indorsed by the conference on the motion of Mrs. R. W. Chalmers of
Thrums.
, As the fruit industry in this province has suffered because of the
dumping of Washington and Oregon
fruits to such an extent as to seriously discourage growers, if not to endanger the fruit-growing industry, and
through that discourage immigration
Ito the province, the Nelson institute
bound themselves, Individually and as
an institute, to use only British- Columbia grown fruits (except citrous
fruits) and to Insist on having them.
So Bo-port Defects
As there had been a complaint,
whether Justly or unjustly, that British Columbia fruits were smaller and
in many eases not so attractive as the
foreign fruits, tbo Institute resolved
to report' to dealers, and at the same
time to growers, any defects In' packing or ln the character of the fruit,
With  suggestions  for  Improvement.
Shipping problems have .added to
the already heavy burdens of the
growers in this province and the Nelson Institute went on record as individually and collectively endeavoring
In every way possible to Increase the
market for British Columbia, and
further resolved that the women's In-
stltute consider the question of expensive shipping as a problem capable
of solution, and tbe Intelligence of the
Institute be put to work on the solution  of the  question.
Prior to the adoption of the Nelson
resolution the subject was fully dis-
r-usaed. Mrs. V. S. MacLachlan stating
that tho Victoria and Vancouver Institute members had practiced this
purchase of British Columbia, fruit
during  tho  past  summer.
Mrs. M. E. Lyne of Creston brought
forth the question of growers being
allowed to place their names on boxes
of fruit shipped, so that in cast* of
faulty packing or bad fruit the right
parties might be notified. Coming
lust previous to Mr. Squires' address,
this   resolution   caused   much   comment.

loyalty  a  jTeoessltf-
Growers throughout the Kootenay
and Okanagan had taken an Initial
step in the cooperative ■ marketing
scheme, which, for success, depended
upon, the loyalty of the grower. Ex
perience was necessary ln the new
movement, and order from chaos could
not be expected ln one year. Sane
business principles should be used on
the farms as is done by the manufacturers.
Quality was a great necessity and
according to Information coming
through, Kootenay apples had not the
enviable reputation of the cherries
from the Kootenays, on the prairies.
This was not in the inability to grow
the apples, but In the carelessness in*
grading and packing, and poor varl
etles. Low prices and unsatisfactory
conditions tended to bread carelessness
In these regards, as surely they would
should the grower remain unfaithful
to   hla   contracts.
OroworS' Smtmlts
The worst enemy of ths grower to-
last
fall all the poultrymen signed contracts, with the idea of representation
at Vancouver, storage facilities at Nel.
son and a choice of pool. None of the
procises were kept and when the
state of affairs became alarming a
meeting had been called last July.
Robson there submitted' a resolution
asking the cancellation of contracts
and after a discussion an advisory
board waB allowed to confer with the
coast officials. Finally, however, the
board advised tho temporary closing
of  the exchange.
Ovearhoad Hoary
For the last period of October,
1220 dozen eggs had been shipped to
the exchange. Of that total Robson
had shipped 87 per cent. From October 1 to 15, 1782 dozen eggs had
been shipped to tho exchange, Hobson
shipping 39 per cent. Had all the people stood by their contracts the scheme
would havo carried through. Robson
had. however, complained at having
to carry ao high a portion of the
overhead. In the laat pool the overhead was 25.8 cents on the dozen,
which had been reduced by .4 tents.
The Vancouver management was tho
trouble. Vancouver expense* were included In tbe expenses, Ss was the
stationery, organization, traveling expenses, as well as the Nelson management. The service supplied was
worse than nothing, the exchange had
absolutely refused to store eggs. C.
Wl Traves, tho Nelson manager, had
estimated $6000 had been lost in the
Kootenays through lack of storage
facilities. Vancouver storage eggs
had also proven unsatisfactory.
Are Boorga-alsod
At Robson the poultrymen had reorganized and were now carrying on
an if nothing had happened. Eggs
were being graded and candled and
were being snipped to the Trail market. Trail waa pleased to get back
at tho old standing.
Mr. Squires advocated that each locality organize in a small way similar
to Robson, and then, when the need
was felt, a movement could be started for a general organization. As far
as shipping to Nelson for a center,
this was not possible. What was
needed was local candling depots, from
where shipments to the nearest market   could   be   made   direct.
Discussion of the fruit markets by
the members 6f the Institutes lead
to a suggestion that the British Columbia institutes get" together and
write to the women's institutes of
Alberta and Saskatchewan regarding
the fruit situation there, what fruits
were needed, and when they needed
the fruit, and emphasising the necessity of buying Canadian products. Mrs.
F. H. Applewhalte put forth a motion to this effect, but It was not
carried owing to a resolution which
was submitted by the Nelson Women's
Institute touching on the same subject

OTTAWA. Nov. 14.—Proposed re-

Canadian tax insofar as salaries of

aroused some interest here. In his

Canadian    Pacific    Will    Exceed
Three   Hundred   Thousand
PORT ARTHUR, Ont., Nov. 14.—
Unprecedented in the history of the
ports this season has seen the greatest flour movement at Port Arthur
and Fort William. The Canadian
Pacific railway had at the end of
October shipped by steamer 239,085
tons of flour to lower lake ports.
About 70.000 additional tons will be
shipped before navigation closes, Canadian Pacific officials stated today.
So great has been the movement
of flour that the company was compelled to lease for several trips two
vessels of the Great Lakes Transportation company. Much of the
flour Is going overseas, and considerable of it will reach Germany,
the Germans having expressed a
preference for Canadian flour over
its United States competitors.
Accommodates Germans
Canada, it is stated, takes pay
ment for her flour In Germany. The
United States miller stipulates that
payment must be made ln gold at
New York, and it is now stated that
United States millers are endeavor'
lng to arrange the same payment
system as used by Canada ln order
to get the flour market open to
United States flour.
If the company ships the addl
tlonnl 70.000 tons by the end of the
season the total shipments will reach
aOi),085 tons. In a loaf of bread
there Is approximately one pound
of flour, and the 309,085 tons lf
made Into bread would approximate
618.170.0OQ   loaves..
In addition to nil the flour, the
company has handled over the docks
In Port Arthur and Fort William
109,681 tons of merchandise, and expects to handle 80.00 additional tons
before the end of the year.

SOME NEW PAN CYWORK IDEAS
British Colamhia Very Much
Concerned
British Columbia ia directly
interested in the success of the
British policy of Imperial preference.
Three of the first articles to
be mentioned for preference are
apples, fish and honey—all important British Columbia products.
Canadian exports of fresh
apples to the United Kingdom
for the 12 months ending September totalled 1,323,841 barrels, valued at $5,824,988.
'■ Canadian exports of canned
salmon to the United Kingdom
for the 12 months ending September totalled 10,617 cwt.,
valued at $2,092,764.
Canadian exports of honey to
the United Kingdom for five
months ending August last totalled 7450 pounds.
These figures give an idea of
present exports from Canada
of salmon, apples and honey.
Preference for goods produced within the Empire, which
means a tariff on similar goods
which are produced in foreign
countries, would be certain to
increase Canadian exports to
the motherland. The United
States, for example, at present
exports a large tonnage of
apples to Great Britain, business which Imperial preference
should throw almost entirely to
Canada.    	
The Marrying Judge
Poplar Bluff, Mo., was suffering from a sadly small marriage licence list and Judge
D. B. Deems facetiously declared that he would remedy
the situation. He playfully announced that he would propose
to the girls himself for any
young men who were too shy
to pop the question. The newspapers published his statement,
and forthwith letters and telegrams descended in volumes on
the surprised jurist
Recently the telegraph company has been considering installing a "loop" in the judge's
office to handle the crush of
business. Since the day he offered to do the proposing for
the shy youth of the country,
the judge has tied 8946 nuptial knots. Recently he has
been adding a sideline to his
business by proposing to young
men for girls who felt that the
intended was a trifle Blow in
coming to the point. These
make the very best kind of
wives, he states, as they are so
determined that nothing will
ever abash or crush them.
Court sessions are frequently
halted by the judge, if he
chances to spy a blushing young
man with a bewildered girl on
his arm. He rushes right down
the aisle and asks the young
lady-to marry the timid youth,
and ties the knot in a trice.
Evidently there are many more
bashfu men in the world than
most people supposed, but one
wonders whether a girl would
really be pleased with a husband so shy that he had to ask
her hand by proxy. Perhaps
that is why books about sheiks
and outlaws are so popular with
the gentle readers.

Here are soma new fancywork
Ideas which I have seen recently
in  city gift shops:
The New "Egg Cosy"—In grandmother's day the teapot waa covered wlh • e "tea cozy" to keep it
warm. Today we have similar coverings to put over boiled eggs, ln
serving. They are made In the
shape of a hen's head, as follows:
Cut two pieces of white flannel ln
the shape of a hen's head, then lay
the two pieces together and go
around the edges (but not at bottom)
with a buttonhole stitch, using red
sllkateen. This forms a sort of little
hood that fits over an egg (which
lies on a plate). Secure a small
head (for a comb) and embroider a
strip of red flannel on the hen's
red eye. The entire article should be
Just large enough to fit snugly over
an egg. If you cannot cut the
hen's head out of flannel from eye,
you can trace a good pattern from
a child's picture book which contains poultry pictures. This little
egg cosy delights a child—and might,
I should think, prove useful ln
tempting a child to eat a boiled
egg   he   didn't   want.
A   Homemade   Telephone   Shield—
These are for standing desk telephones. Thev are made ln two parts,
hinged together with a strip of
cloth—ln the shape of a screen.
Measure your telephone, then cut
two oblong pieces of cardboard which
are high enough to cover it when
stood on end. These pieces should
be 6 Inches wide. Cover each piece
separately, with either silk, tapestry
cloth or cretonne. Hinge them together with a narrow, folded strip
of the. same material. Sew a braid
completely around the-outside edges
of the shield, and the work is done.
Stand the screen up to hide the
ugly telephone. On the Inside of this
screen ia pinned a card containing
the phone numbers you most frequently  use.
A Doorstop for a Child's Room—
In the downstairs rooms we like to
have doorstops of bronze, iron and
other metals. But ln the upstairs
rooms—especially ln the nursery—a
"Dinah doorstop" ls a delight. This
kind of stop Is made out of a tall
bottle. Fill the bottle with small
stones to make it heavy. Cork it,
then pad the neck with cotton till
It ls round, like a head; cover this
head part with part of an old
black silk stocking, and embroider
a face on one side of this stocking
"head." Now make a small white
sun bonnet to cover the back of
the head. Then begin dressing the
bottle with kerchief, still black skirts,
and stuffed sleeves (to represent
arms). ■        , .

Velvet has been very successful
ln the making of the sheathe dress,
which requires a soft, easily-moldable
material to preserve a graceful con'
tour. And how Is this slim, tubular
frock to be given ample width for
easy walking? The circular godet
at each side ls one trick. The
flounce ls another. Sometimes It
encircles the bottom of the skirt.
More recently it is confined to the
front of the dress, leaving the back
unbroken in Its flatness. But study
your figure well before you attempt
this line. If you are one of those
whose greatest weight is below the
waistline   beware!
Note the double tier flounces on

When I was a youngster, a butcher's
driver used to allow me to accompany  him  on   his  rounds.
He was a hero to me because
he  could  handle  horses  so  well.
One thing I thought clever was
his ability to prevent the normal
movement of his intestine by crossing one leg hard over the other.
You can guess my age, then, when
I thought  this clever.
But this idea many people have
of preventing sneezing seems almost
as ridiculous to me.
I know there may be times when a
sneeze might Interrupt a tense moment In a lecture, sermon or play.
But that one should fn the regular dally life try to prevent a good
old-fashioned sneeze Is positively
wrong. Tou know they are able to
do ft by pressing the fingers against
either side of the nose, pressing on
th upper lip, or pressing against
the palate.
Now what causes sneezing?
Well, something Is Irritating the
lining of the nose.
That lining fs a sensitive, delicate
thing, and nature has so arranged
it that If anything harmful attempts
to go up Into your nose, word ls
sent to the brain, and that guardian
immediately Institutes a "sneeze"
dislodge   the   Irritating  substance.
The whole force of the diaphragm,
and to some extent the abdominal
muscles, get behind that sneeze, with
the result that the object ls usually
dislodged, and you Inhale a huge
lungful of air.
You know how you feel after a
good sneeze. There Is not only relief but an actual sense of well-
being.
Sometimes you find yourself sneezing vigorously after being out on a
damp day. You begin to worry about
the possibility of a severe cold taking hold of you.
However, you wake the next day
feeling all right, in fact have for-
- gotten -your, fears of- the night before.
What  prevented  the cold?
Likely those vigorous sneezes' had
much to do with it. Physicians are
agreed that this purely mechanical
method of getting rid of irritants
is a great boon to humanity.
So lf you find yourself sneezing
don't get the Idea that the sneezing
wilt  get   rid  of everything  for  you.
Rather take It as a warning that
you are threatened with a cold or
something else and get ahead of It.
How?
By cleaning your Intestine, taking
hot drinks, and inducing free perspiration,
Don't despise a -"sneeze." It's a
friend carrying help and a warning
to you.

Ymlr, B.C., Nov. 12.192S.
To the Editor of The  Dally Newa;
Sir—Would you kindly allow me
space ln your valuable paper for a
few remarks on an editorial appearing In your Issue of November 1(1,
and headed "Normal School Greatly
Needed"?
Two of the statements made therein
are liable, I think, to create a wrong
Impression in the minds of those who
are  not  ln  possession  of  the   facts.
In the first place, normal students
coming from the Interior are allowed
railway fare at the rate of five cents
per mile to and from the normal
school which they attend. This is
ample for all expenses incurred in
making  such  a  trip.
In the second place, I think I am
safe ln saying that board and clothes,
etc., may be obtained Just as cheaply
at the coast as in the interior. Th.
editorial does not state what tha expenses "in other directions" may be
Furthermore, I do not see that it
Is a disadvantage to students to reside and study away from home. It
young men and women wno wish to
take normal training are not able to
leave home for nine months for the
purpose of study, they might Just uh
well give up the Idea of teaching.
Most of them will be compelled lo
leave home when they go out to
teach, anyway. For myself (a Victoria normal graduate) it was a pleasure to spend nine months at the historic  old  capital   of  our  province.
Lastly, at a* time when- the people*
■fif .jhJH province nre crying that the
burden    of    taxation    be ' lessened,    it
would seem to be unwise to erect
another expensive normal school. The
money could be spent to better advantage ln enlarging and Improving
the two already established. A new
school erected ln the Interior would
be beneficial only t,\ t*he lucky few
who resided in, or close to, the place
where  It might be built.
Personally, I think the province Is
lucky to nave two well-built and comfortable schools such as we have now.
Hoping  to  see  this appear,
HUBERT   H.   PERKINS.

Six  Knndr-ad.  Twenty-six Bound  Trip*
Mads In Twenty-ei-nren Days; Ores-

CRESTON. B.C., Nov. 14. — October
was probably the busiest month In the
history of the Kootenay River ferry
it the Reclamation farm, according to
the monthly report of James Lock-
head, who has charge of the craft. A
total of 62S round trips were made
in the 27 days It was tn operation,
transporting 992 persons, also 271
double rigs, 146 single rigs and 176
saddle ponies were ferried.
The month, however, was the lightest revenue producer the kcal prtSvfn-
ctal police has experienced, the total
Intake being less than 9175, shooting
licences amounting to 990 being the
biggest money-maker. There were no
fines.
In the weather line, the first of
October was the balmiest day ot? the
month, with a showing of 78 In the
shade, and on the 29th the cool wave
was at Its height, when  15 above zero
as recorded.
There was a gain of three In the
population, the new arrivals accounting for two girls and one boy. There
was   one   marriage,   and   no   deaths.
There was a total rainfall of I.9S

HEATED FRUIT CARS
ON CROW SNAPPED UP
Two  Are Made  Vw ot In Wesk,  and
Grower*  Are  Hoping for Announcement of ft Angular Service
CRESTON, B.C., Nov. 14.—Creston
growers are hoping for an Immediate
announcement of a once-a-week heated
car service east. The C.P.R. had one
out of here on Thursday, and the demand for space was so great that almost a half a carload had to be held
over for another car. which was Immediately requisitioned, and went out
on Saturday.
At Erickson the same demand exists,
but so far the only promise the company will give Is that cars will be
supplied at Intervals, sufficiently often
to take care of all  trade offering.
There Is a healthy demand at present at Crow line points for local
fruit In  small  lots.
Independents   Cleaning   Up
Fruit shipments out of Creston are
very light since early this month, the
only activity In this line being among
the Independents, who appear to be
getting pretty near the end. Creston
Growers, limited, have a few cars of
loose apples In their frostproof basement, but In .spite of considerable Inquiry, none of this will be moved
for at least a month, this policy being
adopted to permit of less favored
points, operating through the Associated growers, to get their share of
the late fall market, and also to make
sure that there will be ample frostproof storage at all points In the
province for fruits that tt Is found
necessary to hold over for later shipment. ..
Creston Growers, limited, made their
middle-of-the-month payment a little
early this mouth, so as to assure of
growers having funds for a satisfactory observance of Thanksgiving, and
merchants state that the week-end
trade and payments on accounts was
the beat  for the  last  three seasons.
With the let-up In shipping, the
staff of the Creston sub-central of
the Associated growers has been reduced to the manager and accountant.
Mrs. Percy Boffey, who has had the
poatt.lon of stenographer and assistant
bookkeeper the past two months, having been laid off at the middle of the

KITCHENER IS
EXPANDING AT
ARAPIDRATE
Three Companies Operating
Need Many Men; Houses
Sought; New Stores Open
CRESTON, B.C., Nov. 14. — G. A.
Hunt, the Kitchener lumberman, was
a business visitor ln Creston on Friday and Saturday, and states that the
present winter promises to be the
most active ln the lumbering Industry
that Kitchener has ever  witnessed.*
With the end of harvest work In
Alberta, there Is now a good supply
of workers, In consequence of which
both the Cranbrook Sash & Door
company as well as the Paulson-
Mason sawmills are In full operation,
the latter firm having a very large
crew at- work- 4a the wood** getting out
poles as well as logs, for the mill.
The Naugue Pole company ls also
employing more men than formerly on
Its winter cut of poles.
In one day last week, Mr. Hunt
states, 17 married men now on the
payroll at Kitchener were scouring
the town looking for houses to rent In
order  to  bring their  families here.
There has been an unusually heavy
demand for work horses, ln spite of
the fact that more team owners from
nearby points have taken on skidding
contracts  than  ever  before.
Developments In the mercantile lin«
has kept pace with the expansion tn
other directions, several retail establishments having opened up since
early   fall. * R
Xltchener and Tank Meocag
There ls an unprecedented Modus
from aU points In the valley this fall
for woods work at Kitchener and
Yahk. At Wynndel the trek of young
people has been so heavy that furt-
n-ghtiy dances that featured winter
social life there have had to be aban
doned.
At Canyon the absentees are even
more numerous, quite a few of the
team owners having takea hauling
contracts with the Paulson-Maion
company at Kitchener, as well as
contracts for  making  poles.
Others have gone to Yahk where
tie making and hauling offers unlimited   employment,   seemingly.
A number from town are finding
employment at the two portable mills
operating In the Arm* creek district
en tie'cutting'. For the malt Vh^cait
conveniently leave home, there will be
no scarcity of work again  ihls  w.n-er.

Not a Surgical Appliance,
But a Supremely High-Grade,
Good-Looking, Graceful Shoe
FOOT strain arising from ill-
fitting1 shoes causes fallen
arches, lei; strain, backache,
headaches and a host of irritating ailments.
Arch Defender Shoes provide
the remedy because fallen an-hes.,
in most cases, don't need props,
binding, adhesive tape, etc. They
need exercise—and freedom for
ligaments —play for muscles—
unhampered circulation for the
blood. «
And therein lies the advantage
of wearing Arch Defender Shoes.
Arch Defender Shoes have three
distinctive features' that make
for strengthening* the muscles
and supporting the arches of the
feet; the spring shank; the contoured sole; and the cupped heel.
The result is a shoe that fits like
a glove; provides for support to
the foot arch where needed and
allows freedom of movement and
exercise for muscles*
"Four vigor and taduranci. consequent
upon loot comfort, increase when you
wear Anh Defender Shoot.

Snd of Strugo-le Between  Opposing
Speculative Forces
NEW YORK. Nov. U.—.Stock prices
closed slightly lower after an all-day
Struggle between opposing speculative
forces In today's stock market. Special strength again developed, however,
in some of the low-priced rails, particularly the Erie Issues, and ln a
•number  of   industrial   specialties.
Extensive profit-taking and short
Pell lng was In evidence In the industrial list, on the theory that the
rapidity and extent of the recent advance warranted a further reaction,
nolely on technical grounds, but offerings were well absorbed, the recessions ln most of the standard Industrials   being   limited   to   fractions.
Heavy buying of th© Erie Issues,
•which comprised more than one-eighth
of the day's total transactions, gave
rise to reports of competitive bidding
■for the stock In the open market, but
These lacked verification. AU three
classes touched new highs, the common at 19H. the first preferred nt,
29 %, and the second preferred at
23\. but the closing figures were %
io 1H  points below these figures.
United States Steel closed slightly
higher, at S4, but the independent
Meets   showed   slight  recessions.

Don't be satisfied with just the
past record of a company. Consider
tho future, too.
A auccessful past record ia one
of the measurements of a good In-
veat ment. The history of a company
ought to be traced back over about
JO    yeara.
If the management has been successful In the past It gives one
more confidence ln the future. How
ever, that Isn't enough evidence to
stake money on. The future of
that company ln relation to Industry In "general must be considered.
The carriage companies could
Hhow fine records for the 10 years

COSTS FIFTY BONES
National   Hockey   League  Drastic   on
Rowdyism;    Suspension   on   First
Offence;   No Substitute
OTTAWA, Nov. 14.—Ottawa Hockey
association officials ' announced to
night that they had given notice
of three Important changes ln the
playing rules of the National Hockey
league to eliminate rowdyism from
professional hockey. The amendments will be submitted to the postponed annua) meeting of the league-
to be held here December 1.
The most Important of the changes
would add a minimum fine of $50
and a suspension to every major
foul. Players given a major foul
would be automatically suspended,
and the case would be left In the
hands of President Calder, who would
have full powers to impose such
punishment   as   he  deemed   desirable.
The proposed change further provides that "when a player has been
ruled off for* a minor or major
match foul he would not be replaced by a substitute. When a
player Incurs a match foul his team
shall plaj* without his services and
without the services of a substitute for the offending player for
the   balance   of   the   game."
Last year the fine for a matPh
foul was $15. and a player was
not suspended until he had committed  two  such  fouls.
Adopt   Pacific   Coast   Rule
The Ottawa club will also move
to have accidental puck kicking
legalized In any area except close
to   the  goal   nets.
They will likewise move to have
the Pacific Coast Hockey league's
substitute rule adopted by the National league. This would allow for
the substitution of fresh players
at any time so long as the player
to be replaced Is within an area
adjacent   to   the  club's   benches.

OTTAWA. Nov. 14.—"There seems
lfttle doubt now that the crop of
1923 will run close to BO*, 000,000
biia-vhels," said Hon. T. A. Low, minister of trade and commerce, tonight,
ln commenting «t length upon a
trip of inspection through the
western provinces and as far as
the Pacific coast, from which he
has 'Just   returned   to   Ottawa.
Mr. Low spoke of a general spirit
of optimism which he noticed in
the western cities. He said that
it wns felt that the turning had
now been made toward prewar prosperity, and good harvests for another
couple of years were all that was
needed to completely put western
Canada hack on Its feet.
All Records Broken
Perhaps Canada's greatest wheat
crop was pouring into the eastern
market at the present time, said
the minister. AH records for grain
inspection totals per day, for loadings and shipments, were be-iDg shattered in the handling of thia record yield, he said. The Canadian
National railways, Mr. Low' found,
was handling an unprecedented proportion of Canada's grain shipments.
For the seven months of .the year
already passed the railways were
in a better position by some $5,000,000
than for 1922. and with the heavy
grain traffic they were now handling
an excellent record should be established  by  the  end   of  the  year.
There was no longer danger of
a grain blockade due to tonnage
shortage, Mr. Low said, the Interpretation placed upon the Lake
Freight Rates act allowing, ^ne snip-,
per to file the tariff having' brought
in sufficient hoats to handle all
traffic. The only fear the minister
expressed was the shortage of export demand due to the disturbed
state of Europe and the heavy discount on the money of prospective
customers.
The increased use of the Vancouver-Panama canal route for shipping western wheat was one of the
most significant things he noticed
on his trip. Three of four times
the amount shipped in former years
was due to leave Canada over this
route this year, he believed. A large
percentage of this was bound for
the United Kingdom. Ca-nwda might
be proud of the fact that she had
shipped more wheat to the orient
last month than had the United
States.
Optimism   Returns
Throughout western Canada, Mr.
Low said, he found a' general spirit
of revival and cotirage, undoubtedly
based on the excellent crop and
the exceptionally fine weather which
Insure dearlv threshing and smooth
shipping   movements.
The west, furthermore, he asserted, was assuming a greater character of permanency and of development   of   its   own.
British Columbia had now passe*
to third rank in the manufacturing
provinces of Canada, while Manitoba, particularly Winnipeg, was rapidly developing a network of manufactures with export as well as
home trade built upon them. The
other western cities, in lesser degree, were showing the same confidence In the future of their provinces, he said, and broadening out
into wider commercial and Industrial development. Mixed farming,
especially dairying and the manufacture of dairy factory products,
was being adopted rapidly In different parts of the went, while live
stock was running closet-,to, wheat
In   many   districts.
The west, commented Mr. Low.
which was hitherto a land of wheat
wealth, was beginning to diversify
Its activities to as great an extent   as   the  east.
Coast  Development
Mr. Low spoke of the Immense
possibilities of Vancouver, due one
day, he said, to become the metropolis   of   the   Pacific.
"Our trade with the orient is
growing by leaps and bounds, and
with three-fifths of the world's population on the Pacific the future
growth of Canadian trade there can
be   imagined."

BELGIAN BETTING CLUB
GETS CANADIAN MONEY
Organization   Suppressed   by  Belgium
Is Called  British Sporting Club;
Will Return Money
OTTAWA, Nov. 14.—The Belgian
consul-general here has been advised
of the seizure and suppression by
the Belgian government of a race
betting organization known as the
British Sporting club, Apparently
cbnslderable Canadian money haa

two places—Wenduyne and Blanken-
burgh. All the paraphenalia has
been seized, along with considerable
money which had been wagered, particularly on the Manchester handicap
and the Cambridgeshire stakes. This
money ls In the hands of the Belgian government, and will be returned to  the  senders.
The cable to the consul-general is
ln the nature of a warning to Canadians to abstain from further
patronage of this condemned concern.

ADIEU TO THE
OLDCOUNTRY
Baldwin Declares All Spoke
in Conferences on an
Equal Footing
PARLIAMENTARY TIES
KEPT, CLAIMS KING
Bruce for Australia Demands
Hand in Framing of
Foreign Policy
LONDON. Nov. 14.—(By Canadian
Press Cable.)—The dominion premiers who have been attending the
sessions of the Imperial conference
tonight made their farewell speeches.
The occasion was a dinner given
In the royal gallery of the house
of lords by the United Kingdom
branch of the Empire Parliamentary
association.
Premier Baldwin, who presided,
created a laugh when he expressed
pleasure at being able to leave
the perturbed waters of domestic
politics to "breathe this amber air
for  a  time."
Premier Baldwin declared that In
the Imperial conference all the representatives had met together on
terms  of  perfect  equality.
If Confrence in North's Days-
He spoke of the great advance
in the status of the dominions during the last 25 years and asked
what might have been the effect
on history had the Imperial conference existed in the days of Lord
North, George Washington and Ben
Franklin. The gift of the conference had the maximum of self-
development of the different parts
of the Empire with the maximum
of cooperat ion for the whole. For
the first time, in addition to the
Imperial conference, an economic
conference had met to devise means
of making cooperation more effective.
Premiers King, Bruce and Warren, who replied—Premiers Smuts
and Massey not being able to attend—were all warm in their expression of thanks for the courtesies
extended.
Mr. King stressed the development of the Empire as a community
of free nations. The conference had,
he said, given an opportunity for
full discussion and better understanding of each other's position. It
had helped to establish on a firmer
basis than had existed hitherto the
foundations of evolution of government   within   the   Empire,
"1 mean bv that," he proceeded,
"that there have been made more
clear at this meeting the means
whereby it Is going to be possible
to work out through the conferences problems of concern to all
of us."
Responsible  to   Parliaments
The representatives had met In
the conferences as representatives of
governments responsible to their own
parliaments. They would go back
to their own dominions with cer-
tafn understandings which would be
presented to the dominion pnrlla-
ments as the fruit of the confer-1
ence discussions and which must,
in the last analysis, receive the approval of their parliaments and,
through    the    parliaments,    of    the
CALGARY TIGERS
LOOK IMPRESSIVE
WINNIPEG. Nov. 14.—The Calgary
hockey club, under the guidance of
Eddie Oatman. put in a most impressive workout at the Amphitheater
rink this evening, and they promise
to give the better-conditioned Edmonton aggregation a hard tussle
In the opening of the professional
hockey series here Saturday evening.
The Tigers, if anything, promise
to be stronger than last season,
Manager Oatman is working hard to
Inject some system into their attack,
a factor which spelled their downfall   last  year.

PARIS, Nov. 14.—Great Britain's
team ln the olvmpic winter sports
at Chamonix will comprise 50 athletes,   Including   a   hockey   team.
The rubbers, trainers nnd delegates will bring the British delegation to 60  members.
Portugal will send 30 athletes,
competing in the association football
and other events and the running
events   over   the   longer   dislances.
BUSINESS BETTER
SAYS MR. BUREAU
BRIER
Customs   and   Excise   Grow   Monthly;
Minister   Prefers   Education   to
Prohibition
REGINA. Nov. 14.—Business conditions are steadily Improving
throughout the Dominion lf the customs returns are any basis nn which
to form a Judgment, declared Hon.
Jacques Bureau, federal minister of
customs,   Interviewed   here   today.
"There Is great activity In the
customs and excise department, business Increasing regularly every
month,"   he  said.
Questioned regarding the result
of the linuor referendum in Manitoba and Alberta Mr. Bureau declared his mind was quite clear
on Ihe subject, and he thought the
unenslncss In Canada at present was
largely due to the fact that there
were too many prohibitions. He did
not believe* ln trying to make people
good or sober by legislation. It
could not be done. It waa better
to educate the people ft long the
right  lines.
Very soon It will be time' for
the great American cook to make
a botch of the cranberry  sauce.,
said Premier KJng,
"that the governments are in this
position: They are able to 4 say
they have never lost sight of" the
source from which their authority
comes, and lf there ls to be democratic government ln this age it
will be by keeping full account of
the rights of the people who have
the final say on everything which
affects   their   well-being."
Premier Bruce pressed the Australian position for a voice In framing
the Empire's foreign policy. He
emphasized that while the status of
the dominions had changed within
the Empire it had not changed so
far as International relations were
concernpd. If Great Britain went to
war the dominions would still be
involved.
Defence on Question
"We. from Australia," argued Premier Bruce, "think we are not asking too much in that if we are to
bear the consequences of your foreign policv we should have a voice
in   its  framing."
Australia also felt the necessity of
regarding Empire defence as one
common, great whole, and believed,
further, that provision should be
made for a proper base in the Pacific.
Premier Bruce thought that the
government had adopted a statesmanlike nttitnde in offering preferences to the dominions, hut declared he had no desire to interfere  in  British  domestic   politics.
Premier Warren of Newfoundland,
fn adding his thanks, spolte of the
work accomplished by the Empire
Parliamentary association since Its
foundation.

SOLDIER SETTLERS
PAYING UP WELL
Chief    inspector   of   Branches    Says
Alberta  and  Saskatchewan  Men
in Good Shape and Optimistic
WINNIPEG, Nov. 14.—Annual payments due by soldier settlers have
heen unusually well met, declared
L, B. Boyd, chief inspector of
branches, who arrived here tonight
from the weat,
"I am happy to state,'*' said Mr.
Boyd, "that at the office of the board
at Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon and
Regina the annual one-twenty-fifth
payments due under the Boldler settlement scheme are coming in much
better than we expected. The majority of the soldiers settled on the
land In Alberta and Saskatchewan
are doing splendidly—I wish the
same could be said of Manitoba—
and there Is good feeling between
the men and the government, and
already a little touch of old-time
optimism."

more than $250,000, five messengers
have been killed and 10 wounded,

destro-rwd by fire early Monday morning. The alarm was sounded at 2:30,

was too late to do anything but save
the surrounding buildings,
Mr. Rosso states that all In the
house retired the previous evening at
7:30, and slept soundly until aroused
by  the  crackling  of the flames.
The building was a complete Ions,
tbe family managing to save a few
personal effects. No cause has been
discovered  for the  blase.
Some men believe in long engagements, but the average girl is willing to take chances on any kind.

FOREST FIRE
CASE APPEAL
IS LAID OVER
Enlarged Copy ol Photo That
Figured Largely in Case
Is Ordered
The appeal of Oeorge Benwell Sr,
et al, from a conviction and $25 fine
in connection with a forest fire that
destroyed a cabin at Sheep Creek and
spread to a bridge on the road was
closed last evening before Judge J. A.
Forin, who announced that he would
later set a date for argument, and
would  render a written judgment.
The court also announced that the
photo of the "outside" camp fire
which has played a prominent part in
the case Is to be further investigated
ln that the negative is to be secured
and an enlargement made. The defence has produced this photo, taken
just before the party left the burned
cabin, to prove that the camp fir*
was extinguished before  they left.
The hearing yesterday developed the
fact that a leading witness, and one
of the accused—A. J. Roubenhelmer—
has been unable to be present for the
trial. A suggestion by Erie P. Dawson, of Brown A Dan-son, who appears
for the defendants, that the evidence
given by Roubenhelmer at the previous trial be admitted In this case, was
turned down. Judge Forin left the
matter to James O'Shea of O'Shea A
Irving, who Is conducting the case for
the prosecution, and Mr. O'Shea stated
that as there seemed to be some conflict 1" the evidence of the witnesses
as given at this trial and at the
previous hearing, and he felt that on
that ground the evidence of Roubenhelmer should not be admitted. It
was  excluded.

Eloquent Address in Favor
of Home Production Given
by Mrs. Todd of Victoria
An eloquent appeal that consumers
in British Columbia should use as
much as possible British Columbia
products was made last night by Mrs.
,'W. (1. Todd of Victoria, who delivered
i-a remarkable address, in the Memo-
' rial hall, to the conference of the
women's  Institutes.
The first part of the program was
humorous, taking the form of a discussion as to whether or not the
Institute should make a grant in
favor of the fund for the elemina-
ttlon of chilblains and from bite.
j Mrs. T*>dd, representing the British
Columbia products bureau of the Vancouver board of trade, gave Interesting statistics as to the growth of
British Columbia trade, the growth of
industries, the growth of population,
etc
Mrs. Todd laid particular stress on
the vSlue of the natural resources
throughout the province and reviewed
the mining progress at Klmberley and
Trail.
Once, Mrs. Todd stated, the aver,
'•age consumer of the province made
| up his mind that he would buy Brit-
' ish Columbia goods every time the
I quality and price made It possible,
1 then Industry in British Columbia
■ would   go   ahead.
!     Mrs.  Todd  was voted a hearty vote
I of   thanks   for  her address. '
It's   too   much   trouble   for   some
men   to   make   up   their   minds   not
f [ to   let   their   troubles   trouble   them.
