C, March 24. —The feelings of a man left clinging to a support almost 100 feet ibove the ground when the scaffold beneath him' gave way and carried three companions to their deaths, were told here today at the Inquest Into the fatalities accompanying Saturday's triple tragedy during the demolition of a Powell River company's chlmnsy. A verdict of "accidental death" was returned in the cases of tho victims, primo Gobbo. Ouleppl Mor- cllo and Glova.nl Pelosei- Lulgt Callegari, the survivor, described how the scaffold gave way without warning when tho quartet were near the top of the chimney. He grasped ft ateel support and managed to climb, to the chimney's top He declared his wllllnsneiB to return to work on the same Job. Lulgi Cecconi. foreman, testified that he had examined the steel hocks, scaffold and tackle be_dre 1- was put in place. The steel was one and a quarter Inch thick and tested to .carry 10 tons. Tho scaffold was constructed hy the four men who used it. Steel has been known to glve way for no apparent cause. R. Fleming. In charge of the blacksmith shop which forged the gear, told tl, e tury. He had examined the supports and could detect no flaws. A comprehensive survey of England's great theatrical festival, to be held at Malvern, from August 3 to 32, 1031, was recently given by lte organizer, Sir Barry Jaelt* son, before a large audience in Malvern public library lecture hall. The event, whtch consists of three repeated weekly programs, covers five centuries of English drama nnd is dedicated to George Bernard Shaw. THE KNIiLISH IHF.ATER AND RELIC-ION Sir Barry Jackson said lt had long been a cherished scheme of his to give a purvey of English drama, to present a quick, fcucccsflon of thc plays of esch period. By that means ho hoped that people would learn quite a lot about our Enpli^li theater. There is no country which had such a stupendous collection of drama, unknown to all 'but a few students, as our own. He had no hesitation in saying that the drama of our predecessors was the Rreatcst in thc world—no other nation had anything iik** it. We had no national theater where these great plays found a perpetual home, therefore the Malvern festival seemed to him a very admirable locale for such en experiment. It was not without some feelings of temerity that tt had been embarked upon, and the more he looked upon the suggested programme tho more terrified he became (laughter). The English drama, like the drama of many countries, had lt& center In religion, and he was never quite certain where reJiS-O.i left off and the sUgg began, or vice versa. Some maintained that the theater ..rose from the drama, and some thought that It was the other way about, but to whatever country they went, we find ;. dramatic representation mixed up with religion In its earliest fornix Our first English plays wero religious. It had heen s*ld that thc church, was very quick to (seize U. opportunity and lt tumbled rapidly to thc idea of using plays for teaching the morals of the Bible. He wondered what would have happened If tho church h8d been as quick to lake up the cinema today to deal with the most wonderful stories ever known, Instead io allowing them to emerge from Hollywood. PLAYS FOB THE FESTIVAL Continuing, sir Barry Jackson said for the festival he proposed to lead off with "Hick Scorner" (1513) which was a mixture of comedy and religion. The author was unknown. Aft ft nit 11* mirth, the audience was exalted by prayer. It was fairly safe to to that the play had never been profluced since the middle of the 16th century. The same evening he Intended to sivc the flrnt English comedy. "Ralph Roister Dolster" (1552-54.) by Nicholas Udall. The only copy now known of the play was presented by the Rev. Dr. Thomas Briggs to Eton College tq the year 1818. Thc donor, when doing" that, did not realize that the author had originally been a master at Eton, and it was queer that lt should And its way titers, we might, consider "Ralph Roister Dolster" rather g low comedy, but lt Never guess a dose of medicine. If you are giving medicine by the drop, use a medicine dropper, never drop irom a spoon. Medicine that a tlvwt by drops is necessarily verv powerful an^ different- sized drops might cause a great deal of harm.

Queen Elizabeth. It was the last remnant of tho church straying into the drama ln that particular form. Religion and drama went hand ln hand. Religion taught us how to behave In our lives, showed us what morals to pursue, and the stage did exactly tho same thlnp. Thomas Haywood's "A Woman Killed With Kindness'' (1003) would be performed the following night, nnd would represent the Elizabethan period. Thc glory of the Elizabethan stage was particularly in the development or profound tragedy. The downfall of a prince was the greatest thing to happen in those days. Elizabethans tended to overlook class distinctions and saw the tragedy of the Individual, This particular play was the finest example of this type of dome-tic tragedy. Between the Elizabethan and the Restoration period wc had the-Puritan* in full command, and It w_s remarkable liow their influence still remained. They had struck deep down into t he roots of our country, and it was only perhaps now that we were being able to throw off the shackles a Uttle. They regarded the playhouse as something extraordinarily wicked, and instead of helping they thrust it down nnrt endeavored to blot lt out of existence. When Charles II, came to life again, the drama was Infinitely grosser than it was before, simply because of the tyranny of the Puritanical regime, though ciulto a good number of dramatists made their appearance. Thc next play. George Etherage's She Would If She Could" (1683) seemed to be a comedy that ought to please British audiences. With thc restoration came a new Eoclety and new Ideals. Most of the comedies were too free for modern taste, but this play presented the best of spirit with little offenslve- ness. Tho following night Sheridan's play, "A Trip to Scarborough" (1777) would be performed Por some reason or other, it seemed to have escaped the * attention of all our theatrical managers, Ik was not an original play, but altered by Shori- dan from "The Relapse; or Virtue in Danger" by Sir John Vanbrugh. They would find "A Trip to Scarborough" a very amusing play. Lord Lytton's "Money" (1840) would be the next play. It was lust performed at Drury Lane _!0 years ago in .honor of the state visit of Die German emperor. As to the selection of the last play, at the moment lt was absolutely "in the air." They might have a surprise and they might not. They would try very hard to find something that would be interesting to finish up the first week. He wanted something that was as typical of today as possible. NO PLAOS.Y-fll--, BARBY'H SI (.(il-STION Sir Barry Jackson said he hoped the programme would prove Interesting to them. He did not think It was a highbrow programme. The plays In question had appealed to the large mutes of people, and he felt sure they vjuIU have the same appeal at M.I.c.n. They were the same stone, of right and wrong. We had altered so little. It was Just -letting used, to the Idea ln which they were written. When we once got used to lt there was no dlffi- cul ty in following It. As regards the two last festivals, he thought they had been qul(te a success from his point of view, but he did not know how they had been from theirs. (Loud Applause.) This year they were making very strenuous endeavors to attract friends from the United States and Canada. A gentleman had once approached him to see If he could do anything ln regard to Holland Germany. So they would have MaUern absolutely cosmopolitan. Last time a German lady was rather hurt because she could not see a flag of the Germ.n republic. He thought it would be better for the coming festival that they should be without flags altogether, than run the risk of catulng offense to somebody. (Applause.) Questions were Invited. W. G. A. Tyte said Sir Barry Jackson had not told them any> thing about the company. THE THEATER A GAMBLE Sir Barry Jackson replied that the conditions under which they had gone'to work in the theater were so difficult that it was practically impossible. All he could say was that if their play, "The Barrettes of Wlmpolo Street'' suddenly collapsed in June or May, they would be able to bring some of their old friends. But as he had said before, the theater was absolutely a gamble. According to the symptons at present, he thought that play would be still going strong this time next year, although lt was absolutely impossible to say. C. H. L. Thompson said he understood the festival was for three woekB. Did Sir Barry propose repeating the plays each week? Sir Barry: Yes. Dyson Perrlns expressed the thanks of the meeting to Sir Barry Jackson for his interesting address, It, wa» obvious that the coming festival would be most fatercsting, and there was little doubt that Malvern next August would be a scene of greater throngs of visitors than usual. They thanked him for what he had told them, and for what he had done, end their thanks were very largely toned with the hense of favors to come. (Applause.) Replying, Sir Barry said he always thought it far better to do things than to talk about them. Therefore he had to let the festivals of the past, and he hoped, the festivals of the future, speak for him. It was by one's deeds that people were judged, and not by the words that flowed from one's mouth. (Applause.) Lectures on the development of the English stage will be given during the first week. The following authorities have been asked to lecture: Dr. P, E. Boas, D. Utt., Professor Bonnmi Debree, M. A., Professor Allardyce Nlcoll. M. A., W. J. Lawrence, of The Times.

ROME, March 24. (AP)—A project to have the United States produce wheat solely for domestic consumption, eliminating wheat exporting, was presented to a preliminary executive meeting of the International grain conference today by John A. Simpson, president of the National Farmers' Union of the United States. The conference, which begins on Thursday, seeks to solve the world's wheat over-production crisis. The Simpson project centers around a government-Operated hyu- tem of licencing to purchase wheat at fixed prices, which the American said ishould be around $2 a bushel. Only licenced miller., and dealers would be permitted to purchase, and then onl y ii fixed percentage of the farmers' crop depending on the estimated national production In proportion to the estimated consumption. Export would be forbidden entirely, and import would be eliminated through a prohibitive tariff. Canadian delegates are G. H.

The ambition of most boys of eight and nine years is to be cowboys, but from 10 to 18 they yearn to be flyers, according to a canvass of 13,000 boys from eight to 18 made by Dr. Harvey C. Lehman, professor of Psychology of Ohio university, and Dr. Paul Witty, of Northewestern university, Illinois. As sorted out, the careers of choice wen: At elayht Yawn First Cowboy Second Aviator Third .Soldier Fourth Army Officer Fifth -Sailor Sixth Lawyer At 11 Ta»u- Aviator Architect Lawyer Electrical Engineer Football toach Musician Doctor Civil Engineer Newspaper Man Army Officer To be a bat- Seventh Banker Eigth -..Locomotive Engineer Ninth Baseball Player Tenth -...Policeman The prize fighter has a low standing. _ tier is the 19th choice of boys of 10, but is stricken off the list bv bovs of 15 or over. GIRLS' AMBITIONS TABULATED The ambitions of the 13,000 girls underwent changes, the following being thc order of preferred occupations with girls of 18: 1. Stenographer and typist. Smarts as 16th choice of girls of eight 2. Housewife. Starts as No. 4. 8. Private secretary. Not among ambitions of girls of eight and nine, but is 18th choice of girls of 11. 4. .Musician.

Fifteenth choice of girls of 14. 9. Designer. Not among the ambitions of girls under 11. To be a Poet was the 19th choice of girls of nine, but had no attraction for girls of 12 and upward. To be a motion picture actress was the first ambition of girls of nine, 10 and 11, but was banished from the thoughts of girls of 17 and 18. Human Nature in Russia 5. 6. 7. 8. (By .. B. C.)

Had I shut my eyea and imagined I was sitting ln the supreme court chamber, could easily have seen these two lawyers arguing over some similar point before a Judge. Aldermen Reg Dawson who had charge of the program, invited the school trustees to attend as guests -nd apeak a few words. This was welcomed by three Rotary mem' bers who happ.ned to be trustees. Por ae le the custom the guest does not have to fork over cash for his luncheon. So ln spite of getting a free meal Trustees John Oansner end E. P. Dawson also got out of making speeches. They passed the buck to Trustee Oeorge Brown, who In closing reminded the Rotarians thst the same three trustees would he on tbe board next year. They would like to he on a program next year. It meant one more free meal. • * , Did rou know If all the gold mined ln the pest four centuries could he made Into one solid caabe the block would measure 38V, feet In length, brradth and thickness?

But then we would be sure to awaken and find we were dreaming. After an absence of several weeks I again have an alarm clock. Thie clock goes off regularly every morning at anywhere between seven and eight o'clock. It not only ls a repeater, but It. Insists on someone' getting tap. If not successful, this little clock, almost the size of s pocket pen. will deliberately crawl Into my bed and then proceed to awaken me.

CURING A COLD If you wan to nk i physician tn chans of tba health of ut Industrial plant what single ailment was raaponstble for most sickness snd loss of tlms by employees, he would tall you lt wu the common cold. He would also tell you that there wen more cases reported Monday morning than any other one morning notwithstanding the Sunday rest. It le a matter of too much rest and too much food together with Km* dampness and co.cu.flSs ol the atmosphere that Is responsible for most colds. A patient with a fresh cold is immediately sent home so ae to avoid spreading tbe cold, and alao so that he may prevent a common cold developing into bronchitis or pneumonia. What ls the most successful treatment for cold? Rest in bed Is the most Important put of the treatment as It enab.es the heart to devote all Its power to the fight. Instead of having some of it used up by Uie patient being up and around, H____t Is next Important, and the body ahould be heated by hot drinka, hot foot baths, or hot baths and hot water bottle to the feet. Drugs such as aspirin or Dover's powders may be used to Induce fur- Ather penD-retion but even th simple drugs should only be given! if they have been previously prcs-f ortbed for former ooida. ^T^ The third important point la take something to cleanse the in- | teatlne. Although almost any lax- stive may be used, th* ordinary | epsom salts are particularly helpful as they not only cleanse the Intestine, but also draw some of the poisons from the blood. Further | epsom saits stimulate liver ane gall bladder, and it le moat Important In colds that the Uver Is kept In good -ihJipe so ae to filter ou| the poisons from tbe blood. There has always been an argu-| ment about food and "stuffing oold." As a matter of fact patient needs food all light but L can usually do without It for awhlU miss Lacouple of meals, and tba take simple foods suoh as orat_g| Juice, egg nogs, aoupa, and for tha first couple of days. Rich highly seasoned foods mad upeet the digestion and dlgestloq ls a real factor In oold*. Don't neglect a oold; It can the beginning of real trouble m tlie] sinuses, In ths ears.

How the Rand Mine Pours Out Its Gold Talk of stabilizing the price oaV-tures at these tremendous depths, sliver, whose drop to a low of 36 fAnd even though the temperature Is cents an ounce has utterly demor alized the purchasing power of Human nature!, human weaknesses, and human ambitions have all along proved factors difficult to handle in the Soviet scheme of things in Russia. Even the system of terrorization has been incapable of eradicating entirely the urge of some men to do more and have more than others. Nor has it succeeded in eliminating that laziness which ordinary humanity overcomes only if the hope of reward is present. So the program of equal wages for all those engaged in similar work shows signs of breaking down. Many of the Soviet factories have gone on a piece-work system, based on the good capitalistic doctrine of rewarding the industrious and penalizing the slothful. Now it is found necessary to extend some such system even to the collectivist farms, pride of the Soviet Government. There hitherto the buy have shared equally in the benefits, and the industrious have discovered that they have their labor for their pains. No political or economic system which fails to take human nature into account can long endurt Even the Soviet theorists are beginning, it seems, to find this out. Their surrender to capitalistic methods is another mark of the futility of their fantastic ideas. A new outlook is making itself felt in regard to the purpose of university life, especially on this continent which is the hotbed of eleemosynary education. One writer on the subject, Mr. W. W. Comfort, says in the Atlantic Monthly, that at present "social, physical and intellectual development has all 'wen blended into an innocuous while by our schools and colleges." Conditions are changing. The exigencies.of comfietition are at work more than in the past. Under its pressure, says Mr. Comfort, "our colleges are soon going to be. come institutions of learning in fact as well as in name. Those who are too clever to study and those who 8re too dull will be excluded." Australia is said to be seriously considering the abandonment of Canberra, its "dream city" capital which has cost to date about $6R,000,000. Its only attraction is the legislature, and perhaps the members of the antipodean Parliament do not put on as good a show as our own solons in Ottawa. A man who lived to be 100 used to be a curiosity. Now scarcely a day passes utithout a newg story cxm- cerning some person who haa passed the century mark. And the younger generation, a man like Rock- feller, is not letting grass grow under his feet. Mr. Al Capone says he doesn't even know what street Canada is on, an ignorance which in part accounts for the fact that there is much more freedom from crime here than in the United States. who wants to read a lot of family atuff anyway.

How long can this Ridge of thus reduced to a dull warmth and there ls never any difficulty ln breathing, there seem, nevertheless. to be limits to human endurance ln the bowels of the earth. DUST SCOURGE TO MINERS Everywhere in thess dry mines the rock must be kept wet to allay the dust, and prevent miner's consumption, the scourge of the Rand. The result is a humidity which sometimes causes heat apoplexy. Yet there ls talk of going down from the present 7800-foot depth of the Village Deep, where the natural temperature ls 97 degrees, to a depth of 12.000 feet, where the heat would rise to 116 degrees. And tf the dust can be rendered less harmless by mixture wtth sn Ingredient, and dry heat be thus obtainable, an ultimate depth of 13,000 feet ls thought possible. The Rand has already produced 15.000,000,000 in gold, and though experts have calculated that the mines may drop to an output, of $125,000,000 per annum by 1940. others can see no diminution. The Rand ore, which ls a conglomerate of pebbles deposited by some prehistoric sea, is among the lowest value gold ores In the world. But Its extent Is enormous .and the gold content, though very low, consistent. Taking the average of the whole field, Rand ore produces only $0.48 worth of gold, and, as It costs $4.66 to mine, bring up and treat It, the average profit! per ton on the greatest gold field ever worked Is $1.93.

Fickles Fortune Passes Thorpe By By AL DEMAREE (Former Pitcher, New York Olant«) I see where my old roommate on the New York Glanta, Jim Thorpe, he mighty Indian Athlete, is digging ditches as a section hand in California. It seems like only yesterday that. I saw the old boy rolling the dice in a pullman smoking compartment for a thousand bucks and making his point. Thorpe was one of the most interesting and lovablo characters I have ever .associated with in baseball. But he never let anybody )ut anything over on him if he thought he was right.

What concrete steps will be taken in further protestation will be elaborated after consultation with other powers, including especially Great Britain, with whose foreign minister Arlstide Briand has now begun to exchange views. Prance does not accept the ex- l.ination that nations having the most favored national treatment wtth Germany and Austria cannot profit by this clause by having free entry for their merchandise into the two countries. ROME, March 24. (AP)—Italy's entrance with some of the Balkan countries into the Austro-German customs union was considered by authorities today as reasonably possible. The government comment momentarily was limited, officials saying they were inquiring Into nil aspects. Observers outside the government profess to be confident that Italy is strongly interested In the Idea and quite conceivably may Join what is described as "a practical United States of Europe made while Briand was dealing in words." Italy, lt was known, is expected to make a commercial treaty with Hungary during Count Karolyi's presence at the grain conference here-. Economists say also that Italy has been shaping conditions to strengthen trade relations with other small countries, gradually building up a large market. VIENNA, Starch 24 (AP)—Pending developments ln the projected Austro-German Custom-, union, four nations have suspended negotiations aiming at favorable oommorctal treaties with Austria. Austria has been conferring with CzeciaO-Slovakla, Roumanla, Jugo slavla and Hungary, seeking to secure a favorable revision of her expired trade treaties. Announcement of the _-.w protocol interrupted the negotiations. Hungary alone Is showing a dis- poaitlon to enter Into an Austrian agreement. Extremists In neighboring coun tries are threatening a tariff war unless the agreement Is abrogated, officers. The police disregarded her. The battle, which took place on the Sons of Freedom property, overlooked not only the railway right- of-way. but the Nelson-Trail highway, which abutted It on the other ride, the show being staged squarely in front of the "Wlndow-inThrums," the cafe operated by Mrs. R. W. Chalmers. While the amazons were cheered on by their own side, they were Jeered by Independnt Doukhobors, who were lined up across the highway on property of the Independents, and who called their attention to the fact tbat they were violating Doukhobor precepts ln fighting. In return, the fanatics referred to the Independents as "Devils." BOTTLEN08E IN COMMAND Resistance of the seven big women, their leader being "Old Bottle- nose," a name by which one of her sympathizers called her, the woman seemingly weighing 300 pounds, broke after a while, and the seven were herded into their ranch house, and were out of sight when the train passed.

SEEN AT GLADE ALSO Nude Doukhobors working in the fields at Glade were glimpsed by the police yesterday, but as they were almost out of sight of the highway, and were working on their own lands, no attempt wae made to stop them.
