BARNMOUTH, Wales. Jan. 0.—Rt. Hon, David Lloyd Oeorfe. former
liberal premier, expressed ths opinion hers today that there would have
been a revolution long ago had It not been for the British, dole.
He se,id. however, that in retrospect he believed It would have been better to speed the money In providing work rather than ln maintaining unemployed ln idleness.
Speaking st the laying of the foundation stone of sea defence works
which will cost approximately 1660,000, ths former premier declared that
unemployment seemed to be creeping over the world because there was
too much wealth, too much corn, iron, ooal, steel and other products
Hqftpposled making provision for ummployed. but he felt that a time of
depression offered an opportunity to attend to things overlooked In s
time of prosperity.
"There is a deluge" he said "with the rain falling on both innocent and
guilty.   Now is the time to build an ark."
NATAL. Brasil. Jan. 6—<AP>—Ten
great Italian seaplanes roared down
Into the harbor here today between
4:15 and 4.30 o'clock (3:15 and 2:30
p. m, E. 8. t.) completing one of
the moat ambitious aviation projects
ever   attempted.
An even dozen "nips left Bolama.
Portuguese Guinea, early this morning but one was forced to come
down on the sea early ln the flight
and another had a similar misfortune much later near St. Paul's
rock,   just   off   the   Brazilian   coast.
Both were taken safely in charge
hy Italian naval vessels, twelve of
which lined the course as a precautionary measure. After arriving
hers Oen. IUlo Balbo, Italian air
minister and commander of ths exploit, ordered tbe d Isabled planes
biought to Fernando do No. onha,
the Brazilian penal island not fsr
off tbe coast.
Tho flight of 1875 miles was completed in approximately 17 hours,
15 minutes for th« first planes
whloh dropped down, as they came
in at intervals and flew all the way
In the same fashion.
STARTED    IN   DARKNESS
Started at 3 a.m. (G. M. T.) (9
p.m. Monday EjB.T), while darkness
still hung over Africa, the Italian
squadron lifted anchor and soared
out for the long flight across the
south  Atlantic
Then st 3:40 a.m. G. M. T. they
passed the D.rlseo, first of the
Italian vessels along the route. At
4:37 Q. M. T. tney passed the
Tarlgeo and at 7:06, same time,
flew   over  the  VWaldo.
Thereafter they sped over the tossing ocean and crossed the lonely
island of Fernando do Norontu at
2:55 p.m. local time (11:55 a.m.
E. 3. T.). swung straight for St.
Pauls rock and finally zipped to s
stop on the waters of Natal harbor
at 4:15 p.m. A great crowd was
out to we come the visitors, ths
people cooling from miles around
despite heavy rains last night, and
It was a thrilling moment not only
for the visitors, but the aviators
who had completed such a Ions
and has.rdous trip.
ALL P' »NES SAFELY
ANCHORED
By 4:55 p.m. all the plana* were
safelv anchored and General - Halo
Balbo, who is Italian air minister
and also commanded the flight,
disembarked with his aides to be
welcomed   by   Brazilian   officials.
The general naturally was elated
for he had said befoi e the start
that if half the planes which left
Italy December 17 reached Brazil, it
would be a remarkable achievement.
After three days here the Italians
will go on  to Rio De Janeiro.

With ths new schedule which relates only to Mondays and Prldays,
whloh are Crawford Bay days, time
will be gained by having the steamer
make Its start from Crawford Bay
Instead of from Procter, with the
result that It will be starting south
from Kaslo again at 2 p. m.. tjita

bore tying up at Procter and connecting with the through train. T/ils

HOW   IT   WORKS
Specifically, the steamer will leave
Crawford Bay ftt 9 a. m., calling at
Oray Creek, and arriving at Procter
at 10 a. m. After arrival of the
through train from Nelson, the
steamer will leave Procter at 11 ».

Kaslo at 1:15 p. m. Leaving Kaslo
at 2 p. m., and calling at Gray

the   improvements   of   the   year   to
the   city   distributing   system,   the

the etreet railway. ^^
Whlls the power load dropped
off sharply last winter, with the
shutting down ot the Kootenay
Florence mine at Prlnoese Creek,
and also later as the new distributing system progressed, because of
the reduction of transmission losses
by the end of 1880 it had nearly
caught up the dack. owing to
tne general growth of the power
consumption. __..
Mr. Fleers report ln full was aa
follows:
STREET  RAILWAY
"Following th* poller of 1039.
considerable repairs were made on
the street railway track. Altogether
«34 ties were used. 500 cubic yards
of   ballast,   and   80   56-pound   rallu.
"On Nelson avenue for two
blocks between Behnsen street and
Blwyn street, old ties were replaced
by nsw. old ballast removed ane*

Front and Ward streets, corner
of Hall Mines road and Kootenay street and curve was trued

bringing track up to elevation of
»*.,. w-ucrv-e road in front of car
barns. General bonding and tightening up of angle bars was done.
Considerable work was done on the
track between Ward and Hall
streets on Front street, replacing
old ties and raising rail Joints to
proper height.
POWER-HOUSE
"A new litfhtUw system was Installed In the power house. Old
construction buildings were torn
down and s general clean up of
grounds mads. A new blacksmith
shop was built near No. 8 penstock adjacent, to the power house,
also a new oil shed ws er*"+M
at   the   south   end   of   the   bridge.
"It was necessary to purchase a
new 87% K. W. 13000-110-220 volt
transformer for power-house servloe. on account of the old one
burning   out.
"The floors and walls of the
power-house were painted glass in
windows changed to clear glass,
old units, governors, etc. painted.
transmission line
"A complete new survey of the
transmlsj^on line between the power plant and Nelson sub-station
was mads by Mr. Boyd Affleck, citv
engineer, giving an additional 50
feet in width to the right-of-way.
The right-of-way was oleered of
trees and brush, and an attempt
was made late in ths season to
burn the brush br relief labor, but
the work h»d to be discontinued
on account of snow. This work
will be continued next spring
About two miles of brush had been
burnt when the work was  stopped.
"It was the intention to stub
all poles thst seemed dangerous,
put outside of s few that were
stubbed early in the summer there
are still a large number to do before the line can be conslderf)
safe. No trouble Is anticipated
through the winteT from this
source, but attention should be given to this early next summer.
There Is a possibility that the
transmission line will serve the
city's requirements for two or three
years. Tne only thing that might
govern a ohange will be capacity
of the lines, which has been about
reached, 	
DISTRIBUTION SVSTEM
"A complete sOfvey of the city's
distribution system was made ln
th« early part of the spring to determine the location of load size
of copper, location of transform
ers and capacity, street lighting
and poles. This work took about
two months to complete.
"It was found that the general
lay-out was in such a chaotic state
that none of the old system could
be used to good advantage, ln Its
present   location.   It  was   then  de-

where t__sr_ was only the thin
sections of the system to do. and
a few more weeks would have completed It at a comparatively low
figure. The amount of work to
be done la entirely too much for
the small maintenance crew to
finish In conjunction with the
maintenance work, and to do it

elded to build an entirely new system, salvaging as much as posslDle
of the old system, to be used elsewhere.
ihe general scheme was to
strike some central point of distribution and from which to run
a trunk system or backbone
through the central part of the
load in order to arrive at a reasonable voltage drop with a maximum amount of copper.
"It was decided to make an entire re-arrangeinent of the street
lighting, eliminating all lighting of
small units ln center of blocks,
and installed lamps of much larger
size at the Intersections. The lamps
used are of the most modern type,
with special globes to cast a ray
at sn angle that the rays from
both lamps will meet in the center of the block.
"The control circuit was so arranged that the lamps can be cut
off or on at will from the substation. The old lighting system
was of the multiple type permanently connected to the secondary
lighting system with no means of
cutting  It off  in daylight.
"Provision was also made to divide the city's circuits Into four,
two feeders for lighting, snd two
for power, so that in the event
of any local trouble only a section of the city's service would be
affected.
"Plans snd specification were
drwan up to cover these changes,
and submitted to your council for
approval, and a bylaw No. 603, for
$78,000 was passed.
WORK   ON  NEW  SYSTEM
"Necessary material was ordered
and  construction started July 3.
"Altogether 813 new cedar poles
were erected, representing 17 H miles,
36 tons of new copper wire was
strung, and approximately 10 tone
of old wire was salvaged and used
over agiUn, representing ln all
about  80   miles  of  wire.
'"Twelve new 35 K. W. 3300-110-
330 volt transformers were installed, total capacity 300 K. W.
"Alao 13 new transformer platforms with steel supports were erected  In  the alley  ways.
■ 'In order to comply with government regulations, allowing five
feet clearance from property line
on high. voltage line, an H frame
construction was used ln the alley-

OPERATING
"During the ltt months period
■of 1930, the totsl K. W. hour output measured st the power plant
was 7,608.400. as compared with
8,783,117 K. W. hours of 1B29 covering the same period, or a difference of lr.84.7n K. W. hours less
ln 1930. This no doubt was due
to the Kootenay Florence mine
shutting down in th* early part of
the year. In June, 1930, the difference shown compared to 19H9
is   977,300   K.   W.   hours.
"In December, 19S0, ths difference shown compared to December
of 1939 is only a 1,000 K. W. hours,
showing a very healthy growth, in
view of the fact that the Kootenay Florence  mine was not working
"Taking a period between August
and December Inclusive for 1930,
and a similar period In 1929, the
percentage increase In
Is 17.7 for 1930 and
for 1929. Showing that the increase
ln load was more rapid towards the
end of 1930 than 1929. This no
doubt was due to a combination
of two factors, normal Increase
In load, plus th oehanglng of 81
per oent of the load from tha old
distribution system to the new. It
la quite evident that a heavy loss
has been gradually growing for
some years, due to Inferior methods of distribution. What that
loss represents In dollars and cents
It would be bard to harard a guess.
The peak load on the plant for
1930 wee 200 K. W.
SERVICES   THANGED
"During 1930, 188 permits for
wiring were granted: 738 meters
connected; 843 meters disconnected:
41 1000-watt heaters connected; 1
2000-watt fceater connected; 14
1000-watt heaters disconnected; 19
motors connected; 13 motors disconnected; 21 ranges connected; 7
signs   connected.
"An additional 42 meters were
used for flat rate consumers over
and above estimated amount. This
cost should be charged to extraordinary expense.
"Early In tne summer, the Ainsworth area *was wired for lighting.
This cost should be charged , to
extraordinary  expense.
'Considerable work was dona on
the north shore service such as
re-arranglng position of transformers and Increasing size of copper at
different points ln order to give a
better service  to several  consumers.
"In referring back to the new
distribution system, It was estimated that this work could be done
i certain cost, the cost based
several factors—oondl tlons of
old poles, salvaging of hard-ware,
insulators and wire.
OLD   SYSTEM   WAS  BAD
"It was found as the work progressed and the dismantling of the

CRK3TON, B. C. Jan. 6.—With
the inauguration of the through
train service between Cranbrook
and Nelson the population of Sirdar, the former terminal, suffers
a considerable depletion. The crew
that formerly handled the freight
cars on and off the barges from
Procter Is dons away with. Of Its
members, John Cameron, foreman,
Is taking a few days off before re*
burning his new position. He came
to Sirdar about three vears rho
from Cranbrook to succeed C. M.
Loasby who wss superannuated.
Oe orge Cam, assistant foreman, Is
away on a visit in England, sad
_ on his return will be located at

tuted for Mr. Oam, is here on i
vl«lt before taking a new Job, most
likely at Lethbrtdge. Alberta. Nor
man Backus, the third member of
the switch crew, will holiday for
a couple of months before assuming new work. R. Dibley, repair
foreman. Sirdar, is transferred to
North Bend, and has left for his
new home. Jock McDarmld, car
cleaner, expects a transfer to Nelson, and RichVd Dennes, another
of the car cleaning and repair
staff, has gone to Trail as the
wav-freltrht from Cranbrook will
still terminate Its run at Sirdar,
tbe roundhouse staff will be retained, hut reduced as the engine
will only be at Sirdar three nights
a week. Pedro Cherbo, senior
roundhou*eman, will be pensioned
off about the middle of the month,
and Fred Payne, assistant at the
roundhouse, will then take full
charge of the engine at the Sirdar
terminal. With no switch crew,
which operated at night, the position of operator has been discontinued. At present Mr. Ollle, who
had this Job, with his wife, are
pn a three month's visit at Montreal. While all these removals
will somewhat, effect the school
population there Is still sn abundance of pupils to warrant the one-

Day after day Connie gritted her

was in hfr heart, from everyone In

girl an essential fineness—tbe seed
of basic decency—kept her head
high and her eyes clear. May costello, with tbe quick Insight Of

steadiness of Oonnle; the result,
etrangely, was intense admiration—
an   almost   dog-ltke   fidelity.
"You got a mean break, but life
ain't made up altogether of dirty
deals," May told her, "You'll come

"Gee, Connie — that shot hits

Short sleeve are rampant. Elbow

This not only holds true In

It might be mentioned that this

In serving a made dish keep In

Suggestions for a Working
Basis for Family Funds
In budgeting the question of how
the income should be divided for
oach classification of expenditures Is
aometlmes perplexing.
There can be no fixed rule fpr
this, as the needs of ths family differ ln the various ' homes. Each
family must work out its own pl?n
of budgeting on tbe basis of Its ln-
dividusl needs and situation.
However, It Is wall to know what
experts have compiled as the best
method for the average family, and
it ls advisable to start your budgeting In accordance with a suggested
budget that comes nearest to one
for a family ln your clrcumstano.-i.
As you proceed you will see where
you can change this to meet your
own family needs, and in time jjou
will have a perfect budget system.-
Probably ho two famines can budget exactly alike. For Instance, a
man and wife with an Income of
•200 a month oan allow 137 for
food, $41 for shelter, M7 for savings
etc., white a couple with two children and the same Income must
allow »45 for food, »48 for shelter,
and can save only $28. The matter
of health will vary ln different families and may strongly influence
other clasalflcations.
In budgeting it Is advisable to
classify ths fixed expenditures, such
as rent, insurance, telephone, fuel,
etc. then fit the balance of the income around ttwse. However, those
who have studied, scientific household management agree, approximately, on the division of ths Income. It seems to be the concensus of opinion that 30 per cent of
the income should be allowed for
shelter. Generally speaking we say
not more than ons month's rent,
whloh brings It from 20 to 35 per
cent., but now that rents ar« coming down there is a tendency to
lower this Item ln he budget. Recent budgets make rent 16 per cent
and the' TJnlted States government,
ln one of lta thrift budgets, places
rent at 13ti per cent of the Income.
As rent is fixed each family will
know how much to allow for this
Item.
Twenty-five per cent is considered
a fair allotment for food, 15 per
cent for operating expenses, which
includes furnishing and equipment;
15 per cent for clothing. All the
rest of the expenditures must come
out of the remaining 20 per cent.
These, with the exception of health
snd possibly education, are under
Individual control. Out of this must
come the Items classified as ssvlngs.
and the amount depends upon the
attitude of the family  toward  sav-

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1981.
We Must Not Slip Backward
It is reported from Victoria that Hon. J. W. Jones,
the new miniater of finance, is concentrating on one
thing in preparation for the opening of the session—
that one thing being to use the axe on the estimates
for 1931-82 of every department as they are presented to him. The finance minister is pictured as standing at the door of the treasury clad in the dismal
armour of impenetrable thrift and with a double
headed battle-axe that he brings down on the pate
of every estimate it approaches, cleaving it at least
in two. Agriculture department, lands department
provincial secretary's department, attorney-general's
department or public works department—it matters
not at all; none may escape.
That's the picture, but let u9 hope that the wielding of the axe is not quite as indiscriminate as the
dispatches might seem to suggest.
Every finance minister endeavors to "balance the
budget", he tries to balance expenditures and receipts
and, if possible, to do a little better—show a surplus,
though as a government's business is not to make
profits, surpluses are often a mixed blessing in that
they lead to extravagance.
But the present situation does not include serious
possibilities of a surplus. Hon. Mr. Jones is concentrating on avoiding a deficit for the coming year.
The purpose i8 a worthy one brft we must not allow
horror or of a deficit—or of its alternative, the borrowing of money—to blind ourselves to the fact that it
is possible for worse things to happen.
It would, for example, be far more costly to British
Columbia so to restrict expenditures that essential
revenue-producing work here relinquished or indefinitely retarded than it would be for the government to
borrow a few extra millions during the year.
When the depression began President Hoover of the
United States called together the great financial, transportation, industrial and commerical leaders of the
nation to discuss the best general policy to be followed. It was concluded that the soundest business
policy was to push ahead and carry out every new object of a permanent nature that could be undertaken.
This involved the borrowing of billions by the great
corporations affected but they knew that it was S<xid
business for them and the country.
Exactly the same principal applies to British Columbia. We all know that governments waste a lot
of money. Departmental overhead costs are absurdly
high; methods are often unproductive, inefficient,
cumbersome; there is much duplication of effort, much
entirely unproductive time is expended. Nothing but
a public purse could stand the strain. We can forsee
that Hon. Mr. Jones will be faced with estimates for
the cost of new "frills'" of one kind and another,
for this, that and the other luxury that we could just
aa well do without for some time, at least
Upon all such estimates let Mr. Jones wield the
axe and let the axe cut clean and sharp.
But when it comes to estimates for essential and
revenue-producing development work it is sincerely to
be hoped that Mr. Jones will view them very different-
ly. British Columbia needs during 1931-32 a continuation of a vigorous and courageous policy of road
and bridge building as it never needed before. It
needs to complete rapidly the standardization of its
main highways so that we may make fully revenue-
producing the tremendous investments we already have
in our partially completed highway system. The
Kootenay lake highway is a good example of what
The Nelson Daily News has in rrrind. Half a million
or so is tied up in this highway—yet it can't produce much in tourist revenue, or gasoline tax or in
helping fanners to move their produce, unless the
eastern and western links connecting it with East
Kootenay and the Nelson-Vancouver highway are built.
Many similar examples could be given which would
illustrate the folly at this time of adopting a policy
of Ueing up productive development until some indefinite date when the treasury might again appear
plethoric
C P. R. car movements for 1930 were down 30
per cent, or so and net revenue 16 per cent. But has the
C. P. R- quit building new lines, or larger engines, or
bigger ships?
C. M. & S. C, has a loss of some millions in revenue, yet it has increased its output of metals and is
pushing its power plant and other new developments
with an energy that has never been exceeded in the
best of times.
All big concerns are out with the axe to decapitate
Old Man Waste, but all big and growing concerns are
pushing forward developments to the limit of their ability and, unhestitatingly when necessary are borrowing the funds.
That should be the policy of the government at
Victoria which will find that even if a courageous
policy of development results in increased borrowings,
the public will give the government credit for the good
work long after it has forgotten the alarm the opposition hu of necessity like all good oppositions to
show at the "terrible financial situation into which
the gentlemen opposite have brought our fair province."
"Not a cent for waste, but millions for permanent
ur«provements" is a slogan the Tolmie government
might adopt and carry out to the tremendous advantage of British Columbia.
In Friday's issue of The Nelson Daily News there
wen stories relating to the deaths of 17 persons, and
til from automobile accidents. Every New Year there
are htindreds of accidents which are due primarily to

Ths varn explains that the banker ln Question had a chattel mortgage on a farmer'* wheat. All the
elevators In the district were notified of the mortgage. Saturday
the farmer loaded up part of the
wheat and went to town with hopes
of Trotting, at least enough from It
for Christmas groceries If not for
present*, too.

The elevator at which he callod
stated that It would take his wheat
but that the checks would have
to bo to the bank. The farmer went
to another elevator. Again he was
told thst the proceeds must go to
the bank, The farmer tried a third
elevator with  the earn* result.

With fine TOcabularv irate farmer
swore the bank would get the wheat
sll right. Galloping his team uo
the main street, he becked his wagon uo to the bank, which was then
closed, smashed ln the window o^
the manager's office with his sooon
and shovelled the entire load of
wheat In among chairs, desk, fli-s
of paper and sheafs of notes, while
the dtlrens if the village went

British Empire As
an Economic Unit
(Condensed   from   an   article   by   JOHN   C.   CRES3WILL,   in   the
Magazine of Wall street)
The late Lord Rosebery once dis-.^ii
coursed on what would have been
the course of events If the American Revolution had not occurred.
He vlstoned tne capital of the British Empire so solemnly transferred
in his time from London to Washington.
Long before thst, we may oonjec-
ture, the American federal1 principle of government would have
been adopted and the parliament of
tbe United Kingdom would have become sn Imperial parliament. This
empire would have been a fourth
larger In area and population than
the existing British empire, three
times as wealthy, much more closely knit, and eaatly predominant ln
the   world.   Not   unlikely   It   would
between the mother country
and the overseas parts of the JD.iv
ptre. There Is little doubt that the
United States in common with the
rest of the world will have to face
within a few years a definite policy of trade integration of the British  Empire.
Lookmj still further ahead. It Is
not Impossible to envisage a contention for world trade among
lour giant aggregations; the British
Empire, United Europe Soviet Russia and  the  United  States.
Even if the Labor party scheme
of quota or bulk purchases should
be only the first step, It would be
a blow for the United States. At
present the United States finds a
market for  about  70  million  bush-

This splendid possibility failed because at the time the American
Revolution the political policy of
England was local Instead of Imperial and general. Thereafter that
policy became truly imperial, but
the federal system wag not adopted and the units of the empire
tended to grow into nations rather
than .states.
MOVE TOWARD ECONOMIC UNITY
Of late years efforts have been
made through imperial conferences
to strengthen the bonds of nationalistic empire, and these efforts
have been preponderantly tn the direction of economic co-operation.
They have been partly aentlmental
and partly, based on preferential
tariffs. .
As the national spirit has grown
up in the dominions they all hays
beoome protectionist in tariff policy, hut $he products of the mother country and of other parts of the
Empire have been acoorded varying
degrees of ttfuT preference, But as
yet llftte has been accomplished In
ths way of knitting tbe Empire Into an eoonomic unit.
The chief stumbling block has
been the free trade policy of the
United Kingdom, which haa left but
little room for reclprooal preference by that oountry. Little by little the stubborn devotion of England to the principle of free trade
has weakened. High hopes were entertained that, the imperial conference now sitting in London would
witness the desertion of the free
trade standard by England tn favor
of that of protectionism. Had the
Conservative Party (now willing to
tax even foodstuffs for the sake of
imperial solidarity been power, these
hopes would doubtless have been
realized.
PROTECTION O ROWING IN FAVOR
The feeling la growing ln England that in a protectionist world,
with impeding tariffs getting higher and higher, there la nothing for
Enjriaiad to do but fall in line.
The Socialist-Labor party, now In
power ln the United Kingdom. Is
opposed to duties on food as being
an Intolerable tax on the masses
But is England Is essentially an
Importer of foodstuffs and raw materials 3ind an exporter of manufactured goods, there is no firm basis
for an Imperial preference policy in
tariff legislation until by means of
r tariff aftalnst fore Inn foodstuffs
the pToducta of the colonies can have
an advantage tn the markets of the
United Kingdom.
As am alternative, opponents of
protectionism have proposed systems
of bulk buying by governmental
boards and trade quotas, whereby
the dominions would be guaranteed
certain proportions of the British
market for their products, notably
wheat. At present, for example, the
United Kingdom gets about 50 per
cent of its imported wheat from
the dominions, Canada being the
leading contributor, with Australia
a poor second snd India third. It
Is proposed that tbe proportion
of colonial wheal; shall be raised
to 75 per cent of the entire import snd allocated ln definite proportions to the wheat exporting empire   countries.
while this plan of controlled Imports does not appeal to the dominions, which desire a stiff duty
on foreign wheat, it will probably be applied If the Labor Government should retnsln in power.
TIDE    TURNING    ON     CONSERVATIVE*
On the other hand, the tide Is
turning toward the conservatives,
snd when they corns Into power
again Bnglsnd will become a protectionist country and there will be set
ferlorlty is being remedied rspldy
by mechanization and ratlonaJlaa-
tion of British industries. As Britain gains Industrial efficiency and
modernity the preferential tariffs
will count more and more in her
avor, provided the basic colonial
tariffs sre not so high that tiiej
iver*ue to exjjude British goods, as
well ss those of the United tSates
and  other countries.
But the main consideration Is that
in Empire tariff system has the potentialities of a great approach *"
economic self-containment for
□uarter of tjha world, with a third of
Its international trade. A considerable part of this quarter of the
world contains new countries and
ii idnveIops^ o'd rountrles on which
U. S. manufacturers count much for
uieir iuture expansion. An economic union of the British Empire
would certainly retard the growth ot
that trade and tend to stlmn^tf
the expansion of competitive Brit'
urn traae.
But even st the worst British
Empire economic Integration uou.a
not disastrously affect the United
-states, lor the reason that It Is itself so nearly self-con talned. Such
-eadjustments may cause us not *>
little commotion and some passing
injury, but they cannot bring disaster to us.

one-third of the total of Its whest
export*,, Including flour. On the
quota plan this would be reduced
to 25 or 30 millions, or posailby
less. The wheat producing capacity
f the British dominions is such
that they could easily supply the
entire British consumption and st.U
compete with American wheat in
other markets as keenly as now.
STl PENDOtS  POSSIBILITIES
If the British Empire should definitely embark upon a policy of
imperial economic Integration
through one levpl of tariffs for the
outside world and a much lower
level for the peoples "within the
law." the possibilities of trade
diversion and concentration are stupendous.
Without counting the subdivisions
of the dominions there are near a
hundred units In this enormous empire, the like of which the world has
never seen, Its land area exceeds 13
Million square miles, and its popu-
latlTO Ik 450 million—almost four
times that of the United States. Its
Imports snd exports ere near
third of the world's total of 08
billions, tho portion of the United
Kingdom alone being only a little
less than Dhe whole foreign trade of
the United States, and more than
that ot any other country in the
world. About half of the world's
shipping ln international trade is
British.
The British Empire taxes over 40
per cent of exports from the United
States, of whloh ln 1MB, 850 mlllloji
dollars went to the United Kingdom and 1,300 million dollars to
the rest of the Empire. Importas
into the United States from the
whole Empire aggregate 1,250 mill-
lon dollars. The Empire takes 42
per cent of all domo»l!c exports
from the mother country and the
latter gats 37 per cent of its Imports from British lands beyond the
seas.
KFFECT  ON  UNITED  STATES
The principal threat to the trade
the United States in a British Empire trade union lies ln the fact
that the imports of the United
Kingdom from both this country
and the colonics are chiefly of raw
materials and foodstuffs. There Is
apparently no reason why in time.
with favoring tariffs, the lion's
share of such commodities could not
be drawn from Empire  sources.
We buy so little, relatively, from
t.i <: United Kingdom that it has but
lltt If fear from the loss of our
patronage; even Canada with only 10
million people takes more goods
from the United Kingdom than tbe
United States does. Even as matters stand we sre slowly losing our
export trade to the United Kimi-
dom Hi such items us animal products and cotton. In the latter
item ths British homeland takes
60 per cent less by quantity from
ua than in 1913.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE DOMINIONS
There Is no reason why with fostering care the empire dominions
cannot ultimately oust us from the
fruit trade: from cotton, skins,
leather. Iumsber, mineral oils and
products, lead, and zinc. With those
Items gone—and wheat, barley snd
hog products with them-—there will
bP little left of the present four-to-
one balance of tr de In our favor
with the United Kingdom.
On the other band, our exports
to ths British colonies are mainly
of manufactured goods. So fsr, the
preferential tariffs that the colonies extend to Prttain have net apparently been of much help to the
mother country, but that is largely
because  of  the  Inferiority of prod-

(Former  Pitcher  New  York  Glantal
It would be extremely Interesting
to be sble to pull aside tha veil of
the future year and see who Fate
and Fortune have picked to be the
heroes of 1931.
Will there be sn undisputed
heavyweight champion next vear—
some fighter who will stand out
from the others and not have his
title clouded by winning tt on a
technicality or otherwise?
Who will be the George Earnahaw
and Lefty Grove of next, fall's World
Serlea?
Will Knute Rockne develop another super-eleven and who will be
the auccessors of Carldeo. Brill and
Savoldt?
Will golf find a successor to take
ths place of the only Bobby Jones?
All we can do la wait and watch.
A good crystal gaoer could pick up
quite a few beta that would help
out materially during the present
depression.

THE EARLIEST NEWSPAPER always printed a sign at die top of the first page of every
issue depicting the points of tne compass. The letter N, for North was placed at the top.
Below it appeared a "phis" sign. At the right, E, for East. At the left, W, for Wert, while
below the letter S indicated South. Later, the "plus" sign was dropped and the letters "N. E.
W. S.'' appeared, implying that the imformatlon printed came from the four corners of the
globe.   And so we got the word "News," meaning the very latest information on any subject.
The .advertising columns are "News" as much as the editorial columns. Advertising is pack*
ed with news. News of latest styles, of a new powerful and low-priced automobile, of trips t
food, of an improved household utensil, of so Europe and all ports of the world— and so
on. Advertising has become "news,"' and people depend on advertisements for accurate inform-
ation about things they wished to know.
Reading advertising is a useful profitable habit. It saves time, by telling you where desired
articles may be purchased, ft saves money because advertised merchandise is more dependable
as to quality and durability than non-advertised wares. And. advertising is accurate. You
can trust the "newR that you read in advertisements.   Read them as vou do the editorial columns.
Advertising is "news" of the latest and
best in merchandise ... keep posted by reading
the advertising columns daily

mains, continuation of permanent street work and improvements are features of
my program if elected.

matter as to cost and kind of structure wanted.
