Mr. Hanson said that if salvaging

work on tlie Atlantic coast with
subsidy, the fame arrangement might
be  mule on  the St.  Lawrence.
To the suggestion that the' amount
be struck out, Hon. J. P, A. Cardin,
minister of marine, responded that
tliere had been but one salvage company operating tm the Kt. La-wrenee,
which was going out of business beet use It required financial assi stance.
Hon. Ernest Uapolnte, minister of Justice, expressed the opinion that a sal-
YtigliiK plant on the Ht. Lawrence was
essential. The item finally carried.

tonight.
Mr. Hurley sustained extensive horizontal abdominal lacerations and internal Injuries, at first believed fatal,
when his car plunged over a steep
embankment near Heaver creek, while
he was driving toward the city late
last    night.
The car somersaulted In Its descent

ST. JOHVS, NCI.1.. April 9. -- Burning furiously and with smoke and
I lame pouring from her engine room,
the ^paling steamer Seal was sighted
eight miles off Kay De Wide larty
Ight. The telegraph operator who
witnessed the sight said the crew bad
l<*ft the vessel and were on the ice

Were tin the ice floes. The government steamer Baffle was sent to u-d
the Seal ami was expected (O reach the
hu ruing   ship   tomorrow   morning.
All efforts to communicate with the
Seal by wireless failed, nnd It w:is
presumed her apparatus had been put
out of BommlHton by whatever accident  ooeurred.
No fears were felt her.* for the
crew, even sho uld lliey have to spend
the night on the let- floes, hs Newfoundland seal men are accustomed to
thit experience. The operator at U*iy
He Verde, which is on the nor tli sine
of Conception Hay. reported that the
log lifted long enough to give him n
slfclit ol' the -shi-i, and then shut down
again.
Late tonight a message to Colonial
Secretary Bennett, brought by dog
sled   fmqrl  Orates  rove,   to   the   near-
et»t telegraph station, reported the Seal
on her beam ends and apparently
sinking. The crew was making for
the shore over the tea floes at Sundown.
ROM-!, April 9—Premier Mussolinf
was steaming across the. Mediterranean today for Tripoli. leaving Italy
to the care of the new Fascist directorate, but before sailing he left a
personally wilt ten message with officials of the foreign office calculated
tn reassure foreign powers lliat his
dramatically heralded visit to Africa
Involves no threat to the Interests
of other countries. "My voyage to
Libya contains no menace," the Italian
dictator wrote, as set forth in a statement   made   by officials  today.
"In spite of the pageant presented
by our warships, my voyage i.** merely
a matter of prestige. We wish to concentrate attention <m our colonies, to
mak« them better known, better appreciated, and better developed. Hut I
refer only   to  the  colonies   we  possess."
The dramatic events of the past
three days in Italy—the attempt on
the premier's life nnd his BpectACUlftr
departure for North Africa—have
hrmtght the chief currents of the
Italian situation vividly to tho sur-
faee.
The violent outburst of rage In
Home and other cities when the news
spread that a foreigner had tried to
kill Mussolini, followed by manifestations of almost delirious joy when
the public learned that tbe duc<* had
been only slightly wounded, could
hardly be taken otherwise ' than as
testifying strikingly to tho' strength
of tiie national spirit which Mussolini
has    engendered
To such a high pitch has the nationalistic spirit In Italy beon strung
that lmpnrtlal non-Italian observers
seem to he In accord that the situation const It ut es one of the most
striking ami most Important single political    developments    lu    Europe    since
NKW     ORLEANS,     April     IO—
Grounded   ln   tbe  Mississippi  river
about 45 miles below New Orleans
the   Dutch   tanker  Silvanus,   which
was     rocked,    by    explosions    last
night,   after   lt   collided   with   tho
Standard Oil tank steamer Thomas
H.     Wheeler,    tonight    was     still
burning.     Seamen   of  several   tugs
continued to fight ths flames which
are   believed   to   bavs   caused   ths
death of  33  sailors.
While      circumstances      surrounding
this   river   tragedy   were   being   probed
by    federal    and    steamship    officials,
searchers   were   seeking   the   bodies   of
five   men    officially   missing    since    a
series of explosions occurred here yesterday   aboard   the   O.   T.   Wjarlng,   another   Standard   Oi!   tanker.   Adolph   M.
Johnson of New Orleans, an electrician,
died   tn   hospital   here   tonight   of   Injuries   received   tn   this   disaster.
Damages caused by the series of
river disasters is conservatively estimated at IH.000,(100. About two-thirds
of this amount probably will he borne
by   the   owners   of . the   Silvanus.

EDMONTON, April 10— After deliberating for nine hours, the jury ln
the case of Archie Killips, 17-year-

The delegates, about 400 of them.
met again tonight to continue the

may come late tonight although there
is some talk of the meeting continuing   Saturday.
l'ossibly the greatest uproar waa
caused by a. direct charge that the

office. Bonn demanded that the
speaker sit down; others that he should
get a chance to prove the charge and
till others thnt he should hnve his

OTTAWA, April 9.—The government bill for revaluation of soldier
settlers' land today got second reading, hut after nearly* threei hours discussion was still In committee stage
when the house passed to other business. A number of points were raised.
One of'these dealt with the carte of
the soldier settler who had left his
land and would not benefit by the revaluation; another with the soldier
settler, who by industry had paid off
his loan. It was suggested that the
bill he amended to meet such cases. A
further proposal was that tho bill
he referred to a small committee of
the   house.
Rt. Hun. Arthur Meighen, Conservative leader, remarked that he was
nn aware of the present contents of
the bill with respect to certain alterations propowed when the bill was previously before tne house. He would
reserve the right to discuss the matter   further.
In committee of tho whole. H. M.
Hannessun, Conservative, Selkirk, asked
the minister to consider soldier settlers who had been on the land, but
were forced off by the burden of
obligations within recent months.
These men should not be excluded
from the benefit of revaluation ns
they   would   be  as   the   bill   now  stood.
Mr. Meighen suggested the Recasting of certain clauses to enable the
settlement board to give some preference to the man who had been forced
J. A. Clark, Conservative, Vancouver-
Burrard, naid that the man who had
heen forced off his land should be
given an opportunity to come hack
before the land was sold to settlers
from    abroad.
Obvious  Discrimination
Hon. Charles Stewart, minister of
the interior, pointed out that if the
man whose agreement had been cancelled by his leaving hla farm was to
be considered, then there would he
an obivous discrimination against the
man who had paid for his farm in
full.
Mr. Meighen said the hill was an
attempt to help those who were still
on tlie land. It might be better if the
prlnc>Ie of the bill was simply revaluation which might not be quite so
generous, but would perhaps be more
equitable.
A. W. Nelll, Independent, Comox-A!-
berni, suggested that the bill might
go through In its present form but
that the regulations under it should
provide that soldier settlers be "given
the first opportunity to acquire the
land at the revised valuation. Next
to soldier settlers, preference, should
be given   to Canadian  citizens.
Mr.    Hannesson    suggested     that    a
small   commlttM   of   the   house   be   appointed    to   confer   on    the    bill.
Buy  to   Prepare
Mr. Stewart replied that what he desired to ascertain this afternoon was
how far parliament was prepared to
go in the way of this legislation As
soon as this information was secured,
lt was an easy matter to prepare the
hill ln its final form.
-_.____ A* Boy8> C-'unaervative, Slmcoe
North, suggested that in the case of
those who had met there final payments, there should he provision for a
refund    upon    revaluation.
T. L. Church, Conservative, Northwest Toronto, said that governments,
provincial and federal, were handing
out grants and concessions to railway
corporations constantly. Surely the
returned soldier had Just as much
right as any railroad corporation. The
present  hill   was   full   of   difficulties
Mr. Stewart declared that he was
riot going to argue for a minute that
the bill as drafted would remove all
discrimination. He thought, however,
that It was the beRt that could be
done under the circumstances. It
would give consideration to every
soldier who was on the land.
The committee rose and reported
progress.

Locating the Gall filaddfer
Ag Students we were taught that
lhe gall bladder waa located Juat
about at lower edge of lib* on
tbe right side. A line drawn ft'.UI!
tbe right nlppln t« thy liuVvl Ml
■supposed to (uiNh dii ectly over it, the
full hhiildw being one«-quarter to
one-third   the   way   doWn.
Now ah X-ray, P*m t!lal.fct, U professor In WH% ut tlie western universities tttlls us that the gall blad-
tiwr Is really betoW this point in
75 per cent o( the caws investigated.
Gall bladder ailments are becoming increasingly cuminun, nnd It i*
now felt tbat ttlwai* *]tt'ikl|!£ fot*
the pain In thi* iu\U*r rigbt part of
Chert, lus Wen one of the mistakes made by the patient, and even
l>y   the   physician    himself.
Appoint he biings out Is that the
gall bladder moves up and dt'TVil,
according to whoitlPF oil& Ig lying
down or suimtltig Up in the erect
position oh the feet. The movement is least In well nourished or
mufioular people, the movement being
but an inch, whereas in this fidka
the gall bladder moves up find (Imwu
to the extent of thrpe m* four inches.
What   differ** nee   dues   this   make?
Well u tender gall bladder that is
away down DMT the navet on the
rlfcht s:de, might easily be mistaken
for   an    appendix.
Tliere has always been dlffleulty
ln locating the gull bladder by the
X-ray. However, by meant) of a dye
they are now ablt* to get tho put*
lines of tho gall bladder in SO per
cent   of   the   normal   cases.
When the Ball bladder shows
very faintly or not at all, While
not definitely proving gall bladder
trouble, still with oth_r signs nnd
symptoms, it 18 considered a* pointing to gttH stones ui* Home iufllimma.
toi"y  condition   of  the  gall  bladder.
A im>n striking point discovered
waa that where the individual was
I jaundiced, the dye failed to show up
the gall bladder In the X-ray examination, '
A little of the dye gets lntf the
kidneys, also, and the right kidney shows up well In lti relation to
the gall bladder. Now although
the kidney. Is usually lower than
tlie gull bladder, the X-ray now
shows that tt Is possible fur the
gall bladder, with stones ln it, to
be actually lower than the kldnev,
in which stones may also be located.
Now that lt ls possible to get a
regular outline of the normal gall
bladder, a faint irregular outline
in some ailments, and nothing at
all in still other ailments, it is going to put the treatment of the gall
bladder troubles on a more scientific
basis, '       .

' When Miss Agnes McPhail,
Canada's lady parliamentarian,
il engaged with such a matter
its improvement in the conditions surrounding convicts, in-
*Aead of such a matter as argu-
i|ig that memorials to the nation's fallen are memorials to
*\t'ar, she is doing worthy and
useful work. Her motion, which
the house of commons unanimously adopted, was as follows:
ji "That, in the opinion of thia
hoiiHe, the administration of penitentiaries be amended to provide:
First, sufficient productive work
-to keep tlie inmates employed;
iknd second, that a share of the
'proceeds go to dependents, and
In the case of no dependents, such
: share to be held ln trust till release."
Those who supported the motion, including Miss McPhail
herself, regarded it as a consideration that, in addition to relieving the dependents of prisoners from want, and having a
beneficial moral effect on the
prisoners, the plan of providing productive work for the
great fund of unused labor in
the penitentiaries would make
those institutions to a certain
extent, or perhaps absolutely,
.self-supporting, and the instance was given of Jackson
penitentiary in Michigan.
This is a consideration, of
course, but should not be the
governing one.
-There are states in the United States that have made money
out of their penal institutions,
farming out their unhappy
prisoners in chain-gangs to
w»rk for contractors under con-
1 ditions approximating those of
Siberian exiles under the fear
of the knout.
"Administration of justice,
having consideration for the
Welfare of the state, which is
' entitled to law and order, the
discipline of the offender but
also his moral improvement,
and the survival without undue
suffering   of   his   dependents,
, should be the governing aim.
It is gratifying that the right
course should also involve
financial benefits to the treasury of the country, and those
benefits are to be kindly regarded as long as they are kept
vjhere they belong, as incidental.
I But if the rule should be set
up that every penal institution
in Canada must be self-supporting, imagine the rivalry to get
aj much out of the prisoners as
possible, the possibility, of
sweatshop conditions under the
iron discipline of a penitentiary!
Elf a penitentiary must be
self-supporting, why not a provincial jail, with the wardens
industrial taskmasters?
.If self-maintenance is to be
the rule of the administration
of justice, why not systematically arrange that police court
income must maintain the police? A bonus system to police
efficiency, judged by the number of profitable arrests, would
be in keeping with this principle.
"Our vocational knowledge
should certainly be applied to
onr penal institutions—for a
guard against the wolf at the
door of unhappy dependents,
for the moral and pecuniary
benefit of the prisoners, and for
the advantage to the institutions and to society in providing counteraction to the tendency of a penitentiary to be,
for many, an advanced school
ol crime.
| Rut the turning of our penitentiaries into frankly industrial institutions, manufacturing supplies of all sorts for the
ifte of the government, and
conceivably making profits on
Aeration—which was what
•seme of the speakers suggested
- is a.jump the country is not
yjt ready for.

Boiling Over'means nothing
SPEEDIRON
Coils Easily
Renewed and
Repaired
If a coil burns out you
(.imply lift out McClary's
Speediron Element. With
little effort and expense
you can have the coil replaced by your dealer—
while you wait. Itisjustas
easy and simple to replace
the unit as it is to plug
ir your iron or toaster.
P»T*0M -".Ot-MMJ
IN the days ot old-fashioned "open" elements, boiling
over was a serious matter. Liquids dripping over the
sides of the cooking pot and into the exposed wires and
grooves frequently caused coils to burn out—a source
of much inconvenience and expense.
NOW all that is changed. McClary's wonderful,
new Speediron element enables you to cook with your
mind at complete ease because you know nothing can
injure the element. Your preserves, your soups, your
kettle—they may boil over a dozen or a hundred times
without doing the slightest damage. The coils in
McClary's Speediron are protected by a smooth, cast-
iron surface — a surface so durable that hard knocks,
falling pots, leaks and drips cannot possibly harm it.
Lasts as Long as the Range Itself
That's the amazing thing about McClary's Speed-
iron. It lasts for years and years. And you have a range
that cooks at great speed and saves current. The contact heat principle on which the Speediron operates
eliminates waste by radiation—the heat goes into the
pot, not into the kitchen. This means increased speed
and exceptional economy.

ada   to   their   excellencies.     The   motto
as    trannratt-d    reads:
"Would lt not*, be a beautiful thing
lf you were only coming Insiead of
going."
Chwing*   aaA   Pip«
This expression aroused  a crescendo
of   cheering   and   the   i»tpers   ln   company   with   Pipe   Major  Gillies  played
with   extra   enthusiasm.
The Lady Byng of Vimy came Into
the dining room when the speeches
began, the first time she has appeared at a Vimy dinner. Following
the toast to the King, _en. Sir Arthur
Currie preceded the presentations to
their excellencies with a speech ln
which he first referred to the unique
distinction conferred on him by the
officers of the overseas forces of
Canada ln selecting him to express
in th-ir behalf the regard and affection for their excellencies. Sir Arthur dwelt on the glory of Vimy, the
lessons for Canada today lt has given
and then eulogized Lord Byng's merits
during his term as governor-general.
If there Is one thing more than another you have tried to Impress on
all our people lt is their duties and
responsibilities as citizens of our
ountry," said Oeneral Currie. He was
sure Lord and Lady Byng would not
forget Canada or her people after they
o back to England.
General Currie then askfd Lady Byng
to accept from the officers of the
Canadian corps, a portrait of their
beloved chief, and turning to his excellency    said:
"And will you, Sir, ln memory of
other days, and as a small mark of
our deep affection, please accept a
motorcar."
Present! Kim With Oar
Here the cheering resounded, the
pipers tuned up with renewed vigor
and all the party, after her excellency
had feelingly expressed ber thanks
and gratitude for the portrait, marched
out with Oeneral Byng to the front
door of Government House, where
the limousine waa waiting in a special portico. It ls a Canadian product
throughout,' having been made at
Oshawa, according to special specifications so as to be suitable for use
in Kngland. On the radiator cap ls ft
Canadian beaver of silver from Cobalt. A Canadian silver plate at the
back of the front seat carries the inscription:
"To Their Excellencies the Governor-
General and Lady Byng of Vimy, this
car is presented by the officers who
served in the overseas forces of Canada, 1914 to 11*18, as a token of deep
affection,    April    9,    192-5."
The portrait is also Canadian. It
was painted by Major Ernest Fosberry,
A.R.C.A., of Ottawa, who served as an
officer in the 87th battalion {Canadian
Grenadier Guards) in France under
General Byng. It shows his excellency
ln the frock coat of a British army
general and is a remarkable likeness.
Soldieri Pleased
Sir Arthur, In opening his speech
said he wished to express to the
governor-general the feeling of warm
friendship held for him by thousands
of former members of the Canadian
Expeditionary    forces.
"I think, Sir," he said, "that when
your appointment was announced, none
\vi i> as pleased as your old soldier
friends.
"Muring your 13 months' association
with the corps ln 1U16 . to 19U they
had come to know you, to understand
lo appreciate you. The high
hopes for a most successful administration have been most generously
fulfilled and we shall i»art with ffel-
injts of must profound regret, knowing
that we' have lout a friend and counsellor—syinpalhetlc and wise.
Ia Familiar Figure
"Since coming to live In Canada
you have, to an unusual degree made
yourself familiar with Canadian life,
Canadian people and Canadian problems. You have visited every part
of Canada and some parts many limes.
In those visits vou have taken care
to meet and talk with Canadians of
every occupation and of every social
station. You have not preferred one
province to another. You are as
fumillar with Nova Scotia aa with
British Columbia. From your detached position vou have surveyed the
country as a whole, appreciated its
varied and varying interests, understood its local jealousies, and lis national pride, and remembering that
the old corps only reached its strength
after being welded Into a united
whole, you have constantly but modestly urged the Canadian people to
forget any sectional differences, any
foolish jealousies, to put out of
ttulr hearts all racial suspicions, all
religious prejudices, and with firm
faith and justifiable confidence to
work together to the end that Canada may march triumphantly to the
goal   destiny  has  marked  for her.
"You have lent your support to all
worthy associations. While the old
comrade of battle dajs knows that
you keep an epochal place for him ln
your heart, you have encouraged him
not to give too much in the past, but
that as he bore for years the burden
of a crippled world whose teare are
not yet dry, so he must bear his burden in the battle for a new and better   •vmieland.        •     •    •
"We know that after you go home,
you will not forget Canada or her
people. •    •    •
'■I'erhaps you will tell the people of
the mother country that here ts a land
of freedom and of opportunity."
Emotion Holds Baron
His excellency, when rlHing to speak,
was greeted with almost deafening
applause  and  cheering.
•It would be better, perhaps, if I
dldn t say anything," began Lord Bvng
In a voice that was faltering because
of the  emotion  he felt.
"I cannot express what my wife
and I feel." be continued. "I can
t y_ __* *"** or(*ln,*r>' words, but
I thank you sincerely, I thank you
from the bottom of my heart in behalf of my wire and myseir. We are
assembled here for the fourth Vimy
dinner at Oovernment House. Vimy
was an action. siiccesHful in its conception lucceatftil in nn jkmio-* p„-.
cessful because It was prepared with
earnestness. H was brought to fruition
by a generoim discipline. It was a
discipline that was understood, brought
to a climax by a united Canadian
corps, a mrps whose merits snd qualities I am at a loss to expreaa In
words. Ii is expressed best in the
words of Pope's 'Eisay of Man' when
he aald 'Whose body nature was and
(M    the    soul.'
"I have been five *"■->•*r- --*--*<-'<i*-4
with you In Canada. Vou know where
my feelings are. Tie Dominion is
the same as the corps. Vimy time
will ciime again. Remenmer tiiat there
will be two persons over in England

be wished; two persons who have pride
In you; two persons win* have pride
In Irylng to help yon, who will he
wa teblng you and thinking of you,
believing   In   you.
'You are parts of ft stupendous
whole, whose body nature is and God
the soul." concluded his excellency
in   a   voice   ftnerl   with   emotion.
For a few seconds the sincerity and
ImpresnlvenesB of Lord -Dyng's speech
prevented an outburst of cheering but
when it broke, It reverberated through
the Ipacloua rooms and corridors of
Government Mouse. It was noticeable that several wenrlng well-earned
decorations for gallantry on the field
of battle were seen wiping the tears
from   their   eves
Dodloato Pipe Tnnee

•ntatlons beg-in Pipe Miijor John Gillies asked their excellencies to grant

HERE is a case where Mutual profits were so generous,
that this policyholder was handed a paid up policy
for $1,000 in 1926 instead ol 19.12.   In addition,
he was given $8.26, instead of being asked to pay hia 1920
premium.
This policyholder is no exception.   Every other Mutual
rlicyholder of the same age who took a 20 Pay Life
& M Policy in 1912 has received the same treatment
and is feeling just as happy.
Mutual Life profits are more than a promise. They
are actual, genuine farts, as you can see for yourself,
if you will ask the Mutual Life Agent to show you his
Mutual Book of Results. It shows the Mutual s wonderful profit record for the past 45 years. It show-
what the Mutual principle ol insurance means to you.

NKW YORK. April 9.—Excellent play
by tlie forwards of the Newman-Sterns
girl basketball team of Cleveland, gave
them a strong lead in their series
with thc Kdmonton Grads of Alberta
when they won tonight's game here
15   to   10.
After two contests fn Cleveland, the

finish the series which will be decided on total points. Two more
games are to be played. The Americans started fast and at the end of
tho first half had amassed a lead of
11 to 2, but thereafter appeared content to hold their margin and in tlie
last half were outplayed, Failure at
the foul line cost the Canadian representatives several points, only two
of   li   shots   being   negotiated.

Former   Pitcher,   New   York   Giants'
They say there is no such thing as
a lucky punch. Here's a case of
a fight that lasted only one minute
and 47 seconds, where the winner
was tilt 50 times and the loser only
once.
ln this match Joe Choynskl, the
famous light-heavy, waa carrying the
fight from the bell to Kid Carter.
Carter's nose and mouth wero becoming bloody and swollen, one eye
already hruised and rapidly closing,
he was staggering around the ring,
vainly trying to duck tho rain of
blows shot at him from everywhere.
Every impact of glove on flesh
made the' wonderfully gnme Carter
away. Carter staggered out of range
groping blindly. Keeling the rope
against his hack he reached with his
left hand and clutched It.
Choynski moved in at him with Incredible swiftness and measured him
for the final blow. Cnrter dropped
his free right arm to his side and,
summoning his last bit ot strength,
ewubg hla right just as Choynski got
in range.
There was a dull thud aa Joe's head
flew back and he hit the canvas,
completely out. But for the heaving
of his broad chest, he made no move.
As Referee Siler called out, "Ten,"
they picked him up. He revived
quickly and left the ring with a
I bound. They were 10 minutes getting Carter, the wiofler, out, and their?
he waa so dizzy he almost fell.

Time Rates Reduced Further;
Steel.Shares in Flurries;   ,
Tractions Strong
NKW YOUK, April 9.—Trading in today's stock market was dull and colorless with price movement irregular
nnd generally inconclusive. Chief financial interest of the day centered in
the further reduction in time rates,
which were quoted on a flat 4% per
cent basis as against 4*% to 6 less
than a month ago. Increased reservations of the New York Federal lie-
serve bank and the 11! federal reserve
banks combined also testified to ,t-be
relative ease of Uui credit situutiou.
Brokers' loans h ported to the federal
reserve bank dropped over $117,000,(100
in the week ended March 31, bringing
the total to jr>G5,fi73,000 below the
high mark of the year established In
the week ended February 17.
Flurries of selling in the etee1
shares presumably were In anticipation
of another decrease fn the March unfilled orders of the Vnited States Hteel
Corporation, estimated at from 200,000
to 300,not} tons, which will be made
public at noon  tomorrow.
United States Steel common broke
below 120 and then rallied to 121 %
for a small fractional gain on the day.
Bethlehem and Crucible established a
new low level for tiie year at 19% and
66. respectively. The last-named rallied to 67%, where it waa -off 2->i on
the day.
Baldwin was run up over 2 points,
to lOj'.-i, closing near the top.
A strong undertone was shown by
the local tractions and steamship issues as Adams Kxpress, American Ice,
American Woolen preferred, Atlantic
Hefining and Uold Dust.
Call money renewed at 4 per cent,
and held at that figue all day although banks are reported to have
called about $20,000,000 in loans in
connection   with    week-end    settlement.

are Starred Nerves
SOMETIMES we feel utterly incapable of
further mental or physical effort; sometimes we feel irritable or depressed. In either
case our nerves are strained and starved. This
condition is due to an insufficient supply of
those food elements which renew and restore
the nerve tissues.
"Ovaltine" is used the world over to restore starved nerves. It provides a healthful,
natural way of restoration. This delicious food
beverage is an unique concentration of the
vitalizing and energizing elements of ripe barley malt, creamy milk, fresh eggs and cocoa.
It is assimilated without digestive effort and
immediately imparts vitality and energy to the
nervous system. .

RAW ALCOHOL
SMUGGLED IN
AS CHEMICAL
Customs Probe Hears Further Evidence of Smuggling Rings
OTTAWA, April 9 — Cigarettes, over-
proof Hleohnl anil automobiles f-mtip-
srled Into Canada in tin tet-ih of customs barriers were discussed In the
customs probe today. The cigarettes
were carried ashore from ships tn the
port of Montreal after passengers
and cargoes were landed and tiie vessels were lying at their docks. Tbe
raw alcohol, evading the Canadian
customs and excise charges, was
brought In rfom New York as chemical
compounds and presumably was afterward diluted, colored and flavored
for home consumption or export. The
automobiles, often stolen, were brought
from the, Unlud States with serial and
motor numbers char- cd ity means of
metal stamping ntftchlnes and legally
passed through lhe customs: for uee
fn   Canada.
The. tale of several smuggling exploits was told to the committee of the
house of commons which is Investigating the conduct of the customs department by officers of the biounted
police, Their evidence showed that
there had been a clash from time to
time between their jurisdiction and
that of the customs officers and that
sometimes prosecutions begun by tbe
mounted police did not always meet
with the approval of J. R A. Plsall-
lon, former chief inspector of customs
preventive service for the port of
Montreal, since dismissed.
Bt«ve_g    Criticizes
The release on the recommendation of Bisaillon several years ago,
of two automobiles seized with contraband on the Quebec-New York border two years ago, to a Montreal gar-
-*ge owned hy a man named Falcon,
came up Just before adiournment
nf today's short session. Hon. H. 11.
Stevens crl tidied the action of the
customs people in letting Falcon have
Ilie.se cars on payment of duty. He
claimed that Falcon was "well known
to be the biggest dealer in stolen and
smuggled     cars     In     Montreal."
W. J. Blalr. on behalf of the customs department, replied that the
release had been made on the recommendation of a "trusted officer of the
department"     (Blsaillon).
A suhcollector at Frontier Corners,
where the cars were intercepted as
they were about to be smuggled Into
Montreal and where they were duly
cleared through customs, was on the
stand at the close of the morning
session. He admitted that he sometimes delegated somebody else to
check tbe serial numbers on a car.
In this case he did not know why
wrong numbers had been noted in the
customs  entry   for one of  the cars.
He submitted that a customs patrol
officer could not he on duty day and
night. "Permanent insomnia at $600
a year" was riot reasonably to be ex-
[►ected.

tribes to ?end their own delegates is
regarded here Rg a measure to weaken
any opposition to reasonable terms

Don't Blame the
Type
It May Be Your Eyes
Some day—perhap.-i today-—
when you haven't n second to
waste, you may find yourself
struggling with the telephone
directory, holding it first at
arm's length nnd then under
your nose. At first you probably blnme the light, tho type,
the paper or the publisher for
n condition that is squarely up
to you.
Finally you come to the conclusion' that you do not see as
well as you u?cd to. Don't
wait for this to happen, while
your eyes are trying to warn
you by headaches, indigestion,
fatigue and nervous depression.
Remember, seeing objects
clearly nt a distance doesn't
mean your eyes nre normal.
Your nbility to see objects close
at hand may be failing.
Don't put off having ynur
eyes examined until some chance
experience thrusts upon yuu the
long-neglected truth. Play safe
wiih your health nnd eyo-
health. Only an exrimlnnllon
will prove whether or not your
eyes need attention.
