BROUGHT BEFORE
SENATE AGAIN
! President   Hoover  Recommends Arbitration Appropriation Be Extended
WASHINGTON,  Feb.  3   (AP)—The
I sinking  by  tbe  coast  guard  of  tbe
, schooner    "I'm    Alone"    was    again
i brought to the attention of congress
f today when President Hoover recommended  the unexpended balance of
[ the  $33,000   appropriation   for   arbl-
i tratlon of Canadian claims be made
available   until   June  30,   1932.
In   submitting   the   request,   Di-
| rector Roop of the budget said:
"Although no tea have been ex-
1 changed fixing the procedure of
I arbitration of claims submitted by
Canada on account of thf sinking
I of the schooner "I'm Alone", the
I Canadian government has not thus
I far filed lta statement of facts with
] tbe arbitrators, and it is not pos-
I slble to forsee Just how much
I longer this case will continue.
"It ls thought, however, that the
1 American and Canadian arbitrators
I will not be able to take up this case
j before June, 1981, in which event it
j will be necessary to have funds
[ available for expenditure after July
1,   1931."

Springman Withdraws in Favor of Conservative, East
Islington
LONDON, Feb. 2 (C P cable)—
Paul Springman, United Empire crusade candidate, withdrew from the
East Islington by-election campaign
this afternoon, throwing his support
to tbe Conservative candidate, Mtss
Thelma   Cazalet.
The unexpected action of the
young lawyer, who had the support
of Lord Beaverbrook, came, lt transpires, following correspondence between Miss Cazalet and himself.
The Conservative candidate declared
she wishes to see the country approach "as near as possible" to
Empire free trade and preferences
for Empire farmers accompanied by
equal, or even greater, preferences
fpr   home   farmers.
On receiving word to this effect,
Mr. Springman replied they were
evidently in complete agreement
upon essential points of policy and
he would, therefore, retire in the
hope Miss Cazalet would head tbe
poll wltb  a large majority.

BRITISH LION IS
CHASEDOUT, LAIR
Has Reference to the British
Situation in
India
LIVERPOOL, Feb. 2 (AP)—A picture of the British lion being 'chased
from his lair by rabbits was drawn
tonight by Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill who, in a speech here, continued his campaign against the part
played by the British government at
the   Indian   round  table  conference.
"The British lion," he said, "so
fierce and valiant In bygone days',
so unconquerable through all the
glory of Armageddon, can not be
chased by rabbits from the fields
and forests of his former glory.
"Would France be chased out of
Syria or Indo-China- Would Italy
relinquish her North American possessions- Would the United States
be hustled out of the Philippines?"
All these countries, Mr. Churchill
said, had asserted themselves and
their rights with the greatest vigor.

Members of Labor Ranks Demand to Know Why London
Retains Privileged Position Regarding
Pdurai Voting
LONDON, Peb. 2. (CP Cable)—The possibility of there being at
least six partlee In the house of commons after the manner of tbe group
system of continental parliaments, wae foreseen tonight as a result of
tbe electoral reform bill by Robert Morley, Southampton Labor member,  during  the  house  debate on   the  bill.
The first challenge came from the Laborltes' own ranks, some
members demanding why the city of London alone retained s privileged
position regarding plural voting, which is being abolished elsewhere.
Bt. Hon. J. R. dynes, the home secretary, replied that tbe city of London always had such a determinate Influence not only upon economic
life, but upon the political history of the nation that It deserved a
special place ln the house of commons.
SIR    KAM1TJ.    HOARE    SPEAKS
Sir Samuel Hoare, former air minister, moved the rejection of the
bill on behalf of the conservative*.. He accused the government of
having wasted weeks and months in preparing a measure for which
tbe country had given no mandate, mid of ignoring the things whlcb
really   mattered,   such   as   unemployment   and   economy.
Far from protecting minorities, as the bill was supposed to do. tt
could be used, said Sir Samuel, to destroy minorities, as had happened
in the senate election In Australia In 1925. Then the Labor party polled
1.260,000 votes and the two opposing "parties, the Country party and
the Nationalists, 1.500,000 votes, but the allied parties secured 22 seats,
and   Labor   not   one.
Finally, the only real principle behind the bill, said Sir Samuel
Hoare,   was:   "When   you   see   a   Conservative   head,   hit   it."
Sir Herbert Samuel, ln speaking for the Liberals, recalled that the
Conservatives ln 1924 had secured a majority of seats, though possessing only a minority of votes ln the country, and lt was only natural
that they should be annoyed with the bill. Sir Herbert thought the
dice were already loaded ln favor of the Conservatives by the presence
and attitude of the house of lords, which house was termed "an Incubus    of    any    progressive    administration."

WHEAT BEING HARVESTED IN ALBERTA
IS RESULT OF CLIMATIC FREAK THAT
HAS ASTOUNDED THE WHOLE, CANADA
_>—
Farmer   at   Provost,   Alt_.,
Has Already Cut 55
Acres of Grain
WINNIPEG. Feb. Z (CD-
Western Canadians will admit
that this winter was the freak
of all climatic freaks In Canada's west and they were ready
to expert anything from the
elements. But reports from Provost, Alta., that a farmer »w
nutting wheat this winter has
knocked them back on their
heels.
Balmy breams have blown across
the prflrlas this winter, spring-like
temperatures prevailing over the
weet.    Iq  Alberta  summer  seemed
to linger, while the westerners wondered.
Today M. H- Blelchner, farmer
near Provost, declared he has been
cutting wheat all last week and
intends to continue operations this
week. He said he had cut 56 acres
and Is now launching an attack on
120 additional acres. The grain, be
adds, is cutting fine and the ground
Is unfroeen and dry. Although
wheat ls not worth much, Blelchner
said, he can make at least |35 a day
by cutting at this time of the year.
Blelchner'a neighbors have Joined
the winter wheat harvesting industry and threshing operations are
under way on several farms while
the old timers try vainly to recall
similar scenes at this time of year

Coroner's   Jury   Unable   to
Reach Decision in Foster
Case
OTTTEEIBUKN. fjjjortrnunberland.
Peb. 2 <C P cable)—A coroner's
Jury today began grappling with the
baffling problem surrounding tfte
death of Miss Evelyn Poster, 28.
from Injuries received In a blaze
that destroyed her motorcar on a
lonely moor near here on January
fi.   last.
The problem seemed to have two
explanations. The first was that
Miss Poster wae the victim of a
criminal who imitated the methods
sttributfd to Alfred Bouse, now
[ under sentence 0f death for the
murder of an unidentified man
whose bodv waa found in the charred
j ruins of Rouse's motorcar, Tlie
I other theory was that Miss Poster's
!mind wis unhinged bv her injuries,
and that her talo of attack by sn
unknown man to whom sha had
given a "lift" was fabricated.
STATED PASSENGER
ATTACKED   HER
Before dying Miss Foster stated'
her passenger attacked her. Set
fire to her car and left her to \
crawl from the flames to the road
where she was picked up. Exhaustive search failed to produce any
man likely to be connected with
the  incident.
Tbe victim's mother, the principal witness, testified with tears
fttreaming down her face, that the
dying girl had informed her she j
had been outraged before the man,
had sprinkled something out of a
bottle over her clothes, then she
"went  up- In   flames".
"Sbe said. 'Mother. I couldn't
help it. I fought for my life'" Mrs.
Poster testified. Evelyn, she added, j
seemed  perfectly   lucid  at the  time

George Hutchinson, President Hoover's aerial envoy to the governors of the states. Mrs. Hutchinson,
their two little daughters aged eight and five respectively, and their mascot, a lion cub, made a violent
landing at Kitchener or McConnel about 2:30 yesterday afternoon, when their big Stinson monoplane, when
forced down after straying across the line into Canada
in a fog, turned turtle, according to facts obtained by
The Nelson Daily News from A. Strudwicke by long
distance telephone.
Neither the famous pilot nor any member of his
family was seriously hurt, though all were bruised, one
of the little girls quite severely, and received treatment from Dr. OHiver of Creston, who motored to the
scene.
On the the other hand the carriage of the plane is
wrecked though it is believed the wings, though the
big machine is lying on its back, escaped injury. It
is estimated that the damage, amounting to $1000,
can be easily and quickly repaired.

A lengthy report waa read at lest
night's meet.ng of the city oouncil
from Dr. E. C. Arthur, medical
health officer. Th, report, he stat,-
ed, was filed so that the council
oould be guided by It In making
up public health estimates. Among
recommendations was one that his
salary be raised to $135 per month
as from January 1. He also urged
proteoUon ot the Five-mile water
Uie   against   fire   ravages.
Dr. Arthur recommended the purchase of a Babccck tester for milk
testing. H« urged an electrical
machine capable of handling 12
bottles. The cost would be »60.
In addition a .sediment tester oorst-
lng  910  was urgently  needed.'
He recommended payment of >25
to renew subscriptions to the bulletins of the Matthews Industries.
PKOTECT    WATERSHED
Protection of the Five-Mile watershed against fire was urgent. The
c.ty had an Investment of »100,000
ln Five-Mile and If a fire swept
the watershed, as It did 70 years
ago, the line would be worthless
at least for the next 40 years. Hts
report suggested that the provincial
forest branch be asked to formulate
a scheme of fire protection, which
the city should carry into effect as
soon as Is possible. As the present
system stood .t was like owning a
• 100,000 building and not carrying
Insurance on lt.
He also suggested completion of
an auto road to *he Five-Mile Intake and a road or trail to the
various forks. This was necessary
for protection and he urged that
the work bo dome this tfear. He
also suggested that the dty secure
control of tlie aurfaoe and Umber
on the watershed.
A paralogical laboratory was required !n Nelson. This would cost
between »1500 and »3000. A delegation would be waiting upon the
counoll in this respect shortly.. He
outlined the benefits such a laboratory  would  provide ln  the city.
Dr. Arthur declared he wished
provision made so that he could attend th„ annual meeting of the
Canadian Public Health assocation.
With the WeBt Kootenay Power
& Light company working upon the
river and with a probable chango
in the water level resulting from
this work, Dr. Arthur recommended a thorough examination of alt
sever outlets so that changes and
repairs could be made before low
water level Is permanently raised.
Trall-Tadanac, a community
about the same size aa Nelson,
employed a full-t me medical health
officer at a salary of $3000 per
year. This sum was paid for equally
by the school and health departments. Since 1923, Dr. Arthur
atated, he had been carrying on
a similar work here with a salary
averaging below »2000 yearly. This,
he claimed to be unfair and suggested an Increase ln salary to
•125 per month from January 1,
last.
The report was referred to a com-
mltAee of the council as a whole.

Robert Armour, President of

Kimberley
KIMBERLffY, B. Q. Feb. 3.—On
the Invitation of Principal H. D.
Stafford, nearly 100 parents gathered ln the board of trade room on
Friday evening to discuss the :orrn-
atlon at a Patrent-Teacners association. |
A. A. Watklns was elected chair
man and called on Mir. Stafford.
He explained that If the school was
to functon as lt should, ther* must
be an adequate and sympathetic
understanding between parents and
teachers. He believed that the
Parent-Teacher association could
make a distinct contribution to
that end. Therefore, he had taken
advantage of Inspector Manning's
visit to have him present to both
parents and teachers »he advantages
of   such   an   organization.
Mr. Manning reviewed the history
and place of the Parent-Teachers
assooatlon, stating that lt stood in
*he same relationship to the school
board as the board of trade did to
tbe town council. It was non-
poltticat and nm-e-crartan. It
was a medium through which a
are-it deal of valuable information
could be obtained bv both parents
and teachers. He then listed wa\s
In which the association could h»
of practical help to the school
bord Mr. Mann n«r congratulated

and about 40 children. Now the

MOSCOW, Feb. 8 (AP)—Soviet Russia Is devoting every
ounce of enenrv to the five year
plan for Industrialisation.
For  the   moment   the   project
or   educating   the   rest   of   the
world  to  (vmnuinlsm  has  been
virtually  abandoned  and  during
the  period  of  truce  the   Soviet
union   Is   willing   to   make   the
best of capitalism so far as the
capitalistic   system   can   be   of
material benefit to her.
Significant of the revised attitude
on propaganda abroad ls the closing
of the Sun Yat Sen university which
frankly was a school .or the training
rf Communist missionaries to china.
Stalin university, whose purpose was
the education of all foreign students
in   the   tenets   of  Marx   and   Lenin
also has been closed, and it is not
believed that the Communist party
ls spending much money on propaganda   abroad.

WINNIPEG, Man., Teh, fl.—(OT)—
Low hanging clouds, causing poor

was to have forged the last link tn
a 9000-mile ar mall chain, reaching from AJclavik, In the northern
reaches of Canada's Arctic, to
Buenos Aires, In'South America.
Start of the night was scheduled
for 8:16 a.m.. from Stevenson field.
Heavy fog, with a sky celling of
less than 60 feet, however, held the
plane to the ground. Despatches
from the south indicated that the
fog was even worse there, and tbe
Northwest Airways machine, whlc
was to have connected w-th thr
Western Canada Airways plans st
Pembina, N. D.. was reported held
Just sout*r of Fargo. So far as
known, It ^_. not yet taken the
air.
SKIES CLEAR SOMEWHAT
Clearing skies this afternoon
seemed to hold promise of Improved
flying conditions and at 1:16 pm.
the huge mail plane took off for th"
south. The flight was short lived,
however, and after covering con
slderable distance Plot Jarvts wa'-
forced to turn back to t"oe locel
airport, due to poor visibility.
The weather disrupted air mall
schedules all over the provinces

Engineer Evolves Plan to Do
Away With Radio
Interference
Airsing out of tha annual meeting
of the Nelson Radio club last week.,
and through a conference between
R. E. Crerar, president of the club,
and W. D. Fleet, city electr.cal engineer, the radio situation in Nelson wss thoroughly wired at Monday night's meeting of tba city
council. Following a lengthy discussion and repeat by the engineer,
the council, on moiion of Alderman
J. B. Gra. and Alderman H. B
Lindsay, authorised the electrical
department to make » start ln
noise elimination along Nelson
avenue in Falrvlew. This will be
carried on at other points as well.
Mr. Fleet declared that no' doubt
there was trouble occurring from
the street car lines because of inadequate feeder service. This feed
er serr.ee was Intended when the
city started its power line reconstruction, and be urged that It be
completed as soon as possible. It
would not entail a great expenditure, most of tbe money going for
labor, as material used would be
some secured in the dismantling
of the old distribution system
More taps were necessary every few
blocks, he declared. The claim of
the Radio club that lack of feeders
caused rad o noise, was right, ln
the opinion of the engineer. Low
voltage with street oar motors
irawlng heavy current caused
-parking.
The engineer expressed himself as
in favor of an organized scheme of
noise elimination. It had been
~tated at the Radlp club meetln?
hat there were B00O connections
_ the new distr button line that
were n6t solder d at the Joints.
This wee untrue, and between SO"1
and 400 pounds of soMer had al-
re-dv been vsed. There was one
s ctlon on two alleys where this
■vork had not been done so that
Hie department <r.uld balance transformer lends. Th^e Joints would
■'Hlmatelv be aoldi"**d.
NO   SUBSTATION   TROUBLE
In regard to the complaint at the
substation made bv one gentleman
at the radio meeting, the engineer
declared there was uo trouble at
that point. He invited the treat la-
taon +m iltempt to find troubl* at
that source. If lt were found It
would be remeded immediately.
A rtatement had been made that
the city was going to scran tho
street railway. The mere fact that
the city had spent 86000 ln 1939,
$3000 In 1930 and was likely to
spend a similar amount this year
on the railway, seemed lib show
that scrapping was not being contemplated.
He declared that citizens did not
.enerally know that there was a
-■vlaw covering radio nstallatlon.
nnd that as far as he knew no permits necessary by bylaw had ever
leen sought by aitleens wishing to
'nstsl sets. There was s penalty
attached to this bylaw. He ele-
clared that cooperation and not an-
'agonlsm was wanted on this redo
matter.
Mr.   Fleet   suggeflted   ronlng   the
city, noting trouble, the Ume,
period of trouble. Then he rag-
iwed a conference between the
city and tht dub to arrive at «
means at eliminating th* trouble.
He told of a case that be* bam
cleared up recently. Tbe city wee
being blamed, but when the radio
trouble. _a*as found tt was ln an
old fuse base. It was a aueation
of time before elimination of noise
could be cleared up.
Mayor Morgan declared tbat the '
engineer believed 60 per oent at the
Interference was through lack erf
feeders on the ear Una, A sun, of
$300 would do the work on Nelson
avenue which hsd to be done at
any coat. The matter wee referred
to the engineer for action.

CHARLES
MORRIS LTD.
WILKIE, Sask., Feb. _. <CP,~The
rise of the Charter of Liberty movement ln northwest Saskatchewan is
due to varied causes, according to
divergent opinions expressed here.
Tho charter, which more than 600
farmers have signed during a three-
week drive, favors formation of a
western free trade commonwealth
falling new Dominion government
moves for farm aid.
Business men In Wilkle contend
that the move arises not from destitution among farmers, but Is due
to active leadership and campaigning.
They say that the area dependent
mostly on wheat and oats enjoyed
good crops, which, however, have
been cut down in grade and value
due to early snows and dropping
prices,
"Farmers are In desperate shape,"
contends C. O. Stollker, chairman
of the district farm body executive and a leader of the Chartist
movement. "They are willing to do
anything, ready to go the limit, for
they feel they are not getting a
square  deal."
"1 am informed there is a very
strong sentiment in favor of the
charter among fprmers in adjacent
districts," remarks Mayor F. O. At-
ltlnson, of Bsttleford, 40 miles
northwest of Wilkle. "In some districts the charter has been largely
signed.'   '
"We cannot close our eyes to
the present move toward secession
ln Saskatchewan's northwest," comments J. R. MacDonald, for five
years mayor of wilkle, and now
crown prosecutor for the constituency, "It ta an outgrowth of a feeling among western agrarians that
they are being mistreated by the
east, and It has come to the fore
through  active leadership.
"If, however, the move U to develop beyond an Isolated block of
sentiment, some of the more radical articles tn the charter must be
dropped. Moreover, the movement
can spread appreciably only through
enlistment of strong reinforcements
to the leadership. While I am not
In favor of the charter, yet I believe reconciliation can never be attained through ridicule, nor contempt  for  Its  policies."

BKKATHUS   ATMOSPHERE
The ancient tome Hiirly breathes
the atmosphere of tbe island of the
17th century. In covering the years
1976-1707, bt deals with the passage
of four spiritual heads of the Lachlne and Tort Remy community,
The first entries are signed either
by Father Etlenne Ouyotte or Father Jean Fremont, but they were
missionaries. In 1680, Father Remy
went to the parish as Its first actual parish priest and there remained
until 1706, when he wss succeeded
by ather Michel ds Villermo, who
served the  perish  for eleven  years.
The register ranks as number
tihree among parish registers of the
Island of Montreal. First comes that

burned their houses and carried off
others for distribution among the
various Indian nations, also to be
tortured.
On October 23 and 29, 1694, Just
over flvs years later, Father Remy
devoted two whole pages of his
register to acts he had performed
ln conneotlon with the reburlal of
remains of massacred settlers, who
hsd been hastily burled almost
where they lay after the Indian onslaught, "tn accordance with an order issued by his lordship the bishop of Quebec," commences his narrative, he had published from pulpit and dhurch door for three Sundays -the command that the bones
should be relmterred In the parish
cemetery, and he hsd called upon
his parishioners to aid ln the location of ths temporary graves. He
refers to the massacre by the Iroquois, whom he Invariably terms
"our enemies," and notes that re-
burial had been Impossible before
"because of the frequency of Indian
raids and because the flesh hi d not
been entirely consumed." On the
29th hs describes his personal visit
to eaoh of the temporary graves,
gives their location and details the
reburial in the parish cemetery with
all  the  ritual  of  the   church,
Ons little entry will give an excellent idea of the manner in which
Father Remy Introduced practical
narrative Into his acts of dvU status:
"This day, ths first of May, 1689
were burled ln the cemetery cf
this ohurch the body of ths deceased Jean Barbery, aged two years
and seven months, and of Anne
Barbary aged five years, who were
found half burned on the twenty-
eighth of April last beside the summer kitchen attatohed to the house
of    their    father,    Pierre    Barbary,
which lire  omight  by accident."
But the register Is not merely
the repository of signatures of Father Remy and of othsr priests. Marriage ceremonies reveal the writing of the humblast and the highest serving as principals or witnesses. There ls the signature of a
bride and bridegroom painfully traced with the quill and beside the
flourish and elegance of some higher placed friend of good education.
Thus. In 1689, one Charles Beloncle
son of a Norman merchant, and
PetronlUe Andres, daughter of a
sergeant in the army of New
France, were wedded. Among ths
witnesses who signed the register
in fins flowing hc-nd was Le Chevalier de Beaurepos, a lieutenant at
either Fort Reany or Fort Rollond.
The marriage entries testify to the
... ot that few ceremonies of that
nature, and presumably the festivities which followed were without
a good delegation from the garrison,
Father Remy knew them all and
entered their names, their titles and
their ranks. In tribute to tbe moat
of settlers, never did he forget to
note when ta, marriage o. funeral
was attended by "a large representation   of   the   population"

Canon Shatford
MONTREAL. Feb. 3.—In the old
days a kiss without a moustache
was considered as dull as an fSS

changed. Canon A. P Shatford said,
addressing the Kiwani* club and
their wives; the modern girl probably considers moustaches unsanitary—and the beard whose length
wss once a manifestation of the
man's vision, is of course utterly
demoded.
The changing technique of osculation, however, was not the subject
of Canon Shatford s address. He
spoke on the rejuvenation of Father
Time suggesting that the pictorial
representation of an old gentleman
with a scythe and an hour glass was
frightfully out of date and depressing. Time ahould be represented by
a youth with flaming eyes tearing a banner flaunting the device,
"Excelsior". Old age and white
beards were no longer dignified; today everyone wlsh.d to look ar,
young ss he could contrive to look,

O. Clarke Describes the Effect on Glacial Period
on Lakeg Region
MONTREAL, Feb. 2.—A story
of the time when the levels of
the Great Lakes were 60 feet higher
than today and when the northern
oart of North America was covered
with Ice a mile deep, was told
members of the Over-Seas Club by
Dr. Thomas H. Clark, professor of
paJeontholoj-y  at McOlll university
Before th? last glacial period.
the Great Lakes did not exist, said
Dr. Clark. Niagara Falls was nonexistent and where Lake Ontario lies
now was " river, called by geologists
the Laurentian river, which followed
the preseni. course of the St, Lawrence river but was longer. The
country then hsd a milder climate
thsn tod^y,  he said.
The gjfccters l.ft threo lakes, one
near the lower end of Lake Michigan, one near Lake Superior and
one near the lower end of Lak;
Erie. Later changes filled out the
outlines of the lake system as we
know it today, but .it a hisrher level,
said   Dr   Clark
The position of Niagara Falls Is
changing rapidly, said Dr. Clark,
moving southward up the Niagara
river at the rate of five feet a
vear, as the water breaks down the
Imestone  at  its edge.
After the melting of the glacier,
the sea flowed in and covered the
St. Lawrence valley, said Dr. Clark.
Proof of this is found on Mount
Royal. 600 feet above the present
sea level, the finding 0f the skeleton of sn Arctic whale at Smith'*
Falls and th^ finding of marine fossils all throughout tbe area.

In most ewes, the trouble la
caused by a weakness of the blood

Wards Off Rheumatism and
Constipation with Kruschen
A well-known Lord Bishop hsd been
troubled with rheumatism and constipation. He tried Kruschen Salts.
The results impressed him so much
that he wrote to tell us about it.
Could any testimony he entitled to
greater respect than that of this high
dignitary? He writes:—
•' I use Kruschen Salts for two purposes -to ward off recurrent attacks of
rheumatism, and against Constipation.
I have now no trouble in either direction, since I began your dally doses,
and I could not do without them."
Asked if he had any objections to his j
remarks being published, the Bishop!
replied : " Vou may publish the text
of ray letter -but not my name."
Do you realise what causes then-!
matism ? Nothing but sharp-edjred
Urto acid crystals which form as the
result of sluggish eliminating organs. I
Kruschen Salts can always be counted ]
upon to clear those painful crystals!
from the system. The six salts in
Kruschen are bound to dissolve away
all traces of uric acid.    And moral!
They ensure ,Uch perfect internal
regularity that no such body poisons
as uric acid are ever able to accumulate again. Prove this for yourseir by
buying a bottle of Kruschen. Think
what a lot, you get. for so little. Not
just one gait. Kruschen is a perfect
blend of those six natural salts which
arc vital to your bodilv well-being.
Every day you must have these Salta
or things go wrong inside you.

SIBERIAN TRIBES*
USE MUSHROOMS
AS INTOXICANT
MONTREAL. Teh. 3.—Intoxication
produced In a novel manner was
described by Prof. Reginald Buller
of the University of Manitoba recently ln a lecture at McQill university.
Certain tribes of eastern Siberia
chew a species of mushroom from
which ls obtained an alklloid known
as muscorlnc. The resulting intoxication Is so effective tbat these
natives see visions, move as though
tn a trance and finally end the
"binge" with a period of deep slum-
ber, waking with seemingly no 111
effects.
Sex life of mushroooms was shown
by a series of slides by Prof. Buller.
A million spores a minute are
thrown out from a mushroom or
toadstool, stated the lecturer. Literally pushed from the gills of the
fungus In such numbers, the apparently inactive plant. is really
teaming with moving spores, the
ordsrly nature of thflr propulsion
into ths world to be carried by the
wind or fly to some seed plot being
shown very clearly,
"A sexual re-actlon*" he stated,
takes place only between certain
ndlvidual sporltngs ln some kinds
of toadstools. Fifty per cent of the
little plants are plus insects and tbs
other 50 per cent minus Insects.
Two pauses will not mate; two
minuses will not mate; but a plus
will always mate with a minus
mate.
"Until 1917, nothing was known
experWientally of spx in mushrooms,
but now lt ls known that like
other plants and animals, they all
display lt." concluded Prof. Bullet.

What else could I think? At one
moment you were In my arms and I
was elevated to a pinnacle of happiness beyond anything I had ever
dreamed. The next instant you tore
yourself away from me. You pushed
me from you as though, I had suddenly become repulsive to you. Quite
evidently there was a change of
mind. You told me tbat you were
nervous and unstrung. I accept the
explanation. It Is difficult for me,
however, to fathom a state of mind
that can be so indecisive."
The ah<er precision of hts words
revealed to Connie's acute mind the
deep wound he waa trying to conceal. His conclusion, she was able
to see, was the only natural one . .
that she was flighty . . incurably
fickle.
"Have I ever seemed that kind of
person to you—a girl  wbo could
would pretend to be ln love?"
His eyes looked at her steadily,
and for the first time she noticed
that there was something of deep
win in them; something akin to
..tubbomness.
T do not see that we need to
pursue the subject further, my
dear," he said. "Please understand.
I do not think tbat you wilfully attempted to play wltb my affections.
But love should be whole-hearted—
not a game of hide and seek."
Slowly Qonnle's heart began to
chill.
'You mean tbat you dont believe
I love you?"
I think you think you do—tf you
know what I mean,*" Justin Kent
said thoughtrullv. "I want to b«*
fair to you, and I want to be fair
to myself. 1 think since lsst night
some kind of a change has come
over ms—a new door seemed to have
been opened tn my life. Do you re
member what you said to me yes
terdsy?**
Momentarily Connie's mind wss i
blank.
"I don't know .what you mean—"
"You asid you wanted to make
your whole life a prayer of service
to me—"
"I meant it, too, Justin!"
"I know you did, dear girl, and
that's why I want to be so very
gentle with you. I'm older than you
Connie and It may be that you have
mistaken what you, perhaps, think
of as gratitude for love. Perhaps
that accounts for your nervous
breakdown lsst night. Connie . . I
love you so much that rather than
hold you to a loveless marriage, I
would release you—at ones. I don't
blame you—I try to understand
Do you want to be free?"

Household Hints
You can mend celluloid articles
very nloely by moistening the broken
edges with glacial acetic acid,
holding them together until tbe acid
dries.
Neglected drinking water la
cause of many ailments of household pets. Vetarlnsrles say that
and they recommend shallow earthenware dishes because their smooth
surface will not harbor germs, tbey
can easily be scalded each day and
they do not rust.
Do not use Javelle wster on wool
or  silk.
Uss a soft paint brush  lor dusting house plants .
When   cutting   patchwork   use
piece of blotter  for a  pattern.
A folded envelope will answer
the purpose of a shoe horn wtien
travelling.
Save gaa by using kettles with
large bases. Thsy heat more quickly
than the smaller ones.
To wipe tbe book shelves wltb oil
of cedar ls said to keep the books
from   moulding.
Tbe guest room on the north
side of the house can be made
much more cheerful if tbe walls are
painted or papered a daffodil yel
low.
JF   VOUR   FACE   IS   FAT
Avoid   large   and   heavy   earrings.
Wear your hair parted on one
aide   rather   than   ln   the   middle.
Avoid square necklines. The V-
shaped neckline is far more becoming.
Do not rouge heavily and what
is applied ahould be high up on
the   cheeks—never   over   the   whole
Turned-down hat brims are almost always more complimentary to
the plump free. A little hair show-
in  under  the   brim   helps,   too.

John may have been ln the habit

him dull, Or Mr. Smith may be a
widower with six children and no

Investing a ma^, with splendid
qualities his own mother never knew
he had, etc, are a few of the
symptoms of being ln love with
love. It's one of those sly tricks
nature la so fond of putting over
on us poor creatures—especially after the late twenties.

Kootenay Must Press Its Claims
Economy in provincial government expenditure in
British Columbia during the present year is neces-
sarv "Frills" and waste have to be cut out or ai
least reduced in order that essential expenditure, on
highways, etc, may be made.
It is time for exceptional activity on the parts of
boards of trade in Kootenay to press upon the government the completion of obviously necessary highway
project*. If we, in Kootenay, remain silent or lacking in energy in calling to the attention of the government our very real needs, there ie grave dangei-that
we might be overlooked in favor of other parts which
are more active in making demands. 	
Everyone will realise that the present state of provincial finances does not justify any unnecessary expenditures or the spending of any money upon anything in the nature of "frills." But that must not
deter us in Kootenay from pushing justifiable claims
to the limit of our ability. We should ask for nothing that Is unnecessary but we should press with unremitting vigor for the completion of public works
which will produce business for Kootenay and revenue
for the province.
The Pathological Laboratory
"\Vs a curious thing, but if a horse which stall possesses a financial value to us happens to die, we recognize the loss and it shows in our balance sheet at the
end of the year. But if a human being, who for lack
of proper equipment or other reason dies prematurely,
we feel very sorry but pay no attention ^to the loss
of a valuable and productive human life."
The remark was made in The Daily News office
vesterday by a visitor who was urging the necessity
of the establishment in Nelson of the proposed Kootenay pathological laboratory.
He wasa touching on the question of cost The
proposed laboratory, which has been endorsed by the
medical men of the district, a number of women's
organizations and service clubs, will cost $6000 to
establish. Of this sum the provincial government will
put up $2!>00, leaving $2500 to be raised in other
ways. That would be a small amount to pay for saving one life.
Trail-Tadanac recognizes Nelson as the most central
.-nd suitable place for the laboratory, but if Nelson
does not go ahead with the project, then TraU will do
At present tests which are essential to prompt and
precise diagnosis of disease and without which proper
and effective treatment cannot begin, have to be made
at the coast or in one of the laboratories in the Okanagan. The result is delay which is costly in life or
health.
The "Josephine K" Case
A United States coastguard board of inquiry has upheld the action of Carl Schmidt, in charge of a coast-
guard cutter, in firing on the Canadian ship "Josephine K" with the result that Capt Cluett was killed.
The inquiry does not of course, end the matter, but
the decision leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
American customs laws, which are a domestic
matter, give jurisdiction within a 12-mile limit of
shore, but international law does not A British-
American treaty gives jurisdiction in liquor cases within one hour's sailing of shore, which is a very different matter. The Josephine K. was more than one
hour's sailing from shore and therefore was not out-
side of the law insofar as the special treaty is concerned.
It would seem that the case was one that should
have been governed by international law: otherwise American cutters ostensibly engaged in chasing
rum-runners might steam around firing off shells with
the same calm disregard for humanity and the law as
a drunken American dry agent or the Russian fleet at
Dogger bank, in that historic attack on British trawlers during the Russo-Japanese war.
Was the shooting necessary? The .American ship was
fast enough to overhaul and capture the Canadian
vessel, without trying to blow it out of the water. Opinions will differ, but correct in.the assumption or not,
most Britishers would prefer to think that If the
nationalities of the two ships had been reversed, a
British skipper would not have fired the shot
The question i« not one which should be discussed
with passion or in anything but the best of temper,
but it is possible to become rather tired of *Tm
Alone" and "Josephine K" Incidents and to ask that
thev lie stopped, always providing that the ships
which are victims are not violating international law
or the British-American treaties.
The rebellion in Turkey is for the noble purpose of
restoring the fez and the harem. The head trouble
maker Is an optimist.
A French bluejacket is reported to have had five
mothers in law. It must be true that "sailors don't
care."

Happiness tn m-uriage u. an elusive thing, but Dr Horneli Hart of
Bryn Mawr college, who went to
Chicago to deliver a lecture, formulated a set of rules embodying his
philosophy of lore.
If you would have happiness ln

these rules:
1—Marry soma one you love.
a—Pick a mate with a personality to match \revx own.
8—Strive for spiritual lntergra
tion (and learn enough about life
to know what spiritual integration
means).
4—Avoid trial marriages — you
can't get married on  probation.
5—Stick to monogamy—ons mate

6—Have no faith in "emotional
vacation" theories-
7—Learn tha art of living together.
8—Many bat-ween tbs age of aa

owing Borne 860 he presented himself at the office, asked for his roll,
and ths bill, received the money,
signed for Its receipt, and walked
off. lie hu pleaded Inability to
pay ever since. Doukhobors are
very fond of this kind of cheap
tactics.
I havs not discussed with a
lawyer the possibility of collsctlng
these bills, but as moat Doukhobors are member of the Christian Community of Universal Broth -
erhood (what a name for tbe
habitual law-breakers to adopt)
they havs no saleable personal
property. That la where the law
breaks down. The community simply
refuses  to  pay.
Tha Doukhobors hate this country and everything "Engl.ah" most
cordially. Tbey have been used
to being ruled with ftn lmn hand
In Russia. Like Hindus, they are
most unhappy under the gentle
rule of tbe Britlah. They have
no respect for any one wbo hsa not
a rough and firm band. They
cannot understand why any man
would not use foroe whan he baa
tt. Tbey have concluded long ago
tbat we have not tbe power, and
that we an afraid of them. These
nasty children spoil, when tbe
birch la saved. Tba whip is the
Russian persuader and they mlas
it terribly In Canada. Certain Ignorant, slushy, eenttmentellste at
tha coast have rendered the Doukhobors and our country a very poor
service, when tbey raised tba ory
about un-Britlsh methods when
ever slightly firmer methods wen
used than usual. When the iron
hand waa not used n Canada when
the Doukhobors first arrived bars
nnd had kissed tbe soil of Canada
and thanked Ood for their de-
Mveranoe from Russia, tbey, . like
m-frread, badly brought up brata,
tried to aae Juat bow far they
could go with thalr oommunlstlc
cheek and crime. Row they have
trot aw*a*r with defying about all the
laws and instltut.ons that out fore-
lathers bled to obtain from selfish
kings snd a narrow-minded aristocracy. And tbey are getting away
even with arson, bombing and
murder.
Of course, I cheerfully admit that
there are good Doukhobors—but
they have buried them all, before
sunrise near* some fruit tree, to
make fertilizer. That :s about the
only fertiliser they use, and their
land ts Juat whipped out by tha
methods tbat these "wonderful
farmers"  uae.
These people would no doubt feel
much happier ln Mexico. Tbe
Mexican government would not
compel them to attend Mexican
schools. They could have Dousno-
bor teachers to teach their own
children the holy Russian language. The Mexican government
would not worry about registration
of births, etc, nor about the.r
divorce practices. They would find
there new fertile soil to whip out.
However, wo do not want them to
leave Canada—if they will behave.
They have turned Immense stretches
of wilderness into garden. They
produced huge quantities of foodstuffs, livestock and lumber. Tbty
have created a great deal of business for our railroad*, the automobile bus.ness and storekeepers.
Even their _.irchas*e of lip stick,
rouge, powder and perfume must
run into big figures. We must Insist, however, tbat they respect and
obey our laws. Thsee law-breaking,
burning and bombing practices must
be stopped.
Law breaking and beating the
hated "English" no doubt addH
more "glory to their Ood." but we
will stop It, and lti legal ways, too.
We must Insist that our provincial
representatives Col, Lister, Dr.
Borden and Dr. Kingston, and our
Dominion member, W. K Ealing,
must see to it that amendments
to existing acts are passed, and that
new ones are-enacted to effectively
deal with these dead beats and lawbreaker*. If tbe government will
not act, theae men should havs
back-bone enough to resign their
seats and the electors will return
them by acclamation. Any party
who would nominate a candidate to
oppose these men would be digging
lta own  grave.
Amendments to compel the community to pay hospital accommodation for its members must be passed
The election act must be amended. In all countries exoept the
British, natlonal.tr of the children
follows the father. That Is fair
and right. Under British law tt
follows the flag under which a
ohlld Is born. It is queer logic that
a son of British parents should be
a Chinaman because heisbornitfUer
the Ch neae nag. In a oountry
like Canada, whloh. owing to an unwise immigration policy, haa to assimilate so many misfits, no one
whose parents have not taken out
citizens' papers, should be considered a citizen, unices he confirms
the requremente of the naturalization act. and swears "allegiance.
The law should be so amended that
no conscientious objector, even of
Britlah, nationality, could exercise
active otttnenshlp privileges such a*.
vo ing. etc. No alien should be
ellg'ble to government positions such
ae paetmaster, etc.
For refusal to register births,
marriages and deaths, for breaking
the divorce laws, for not sending
cMldrejx~_jO school, a six-month term
ln Jail and a fine heavy enough 'o
pay for their keep in Jail should
be imposed.
That would catch the lnoendlere*
and bombers, too. Tbe fine oould
be collected by the sale of some of
their property. A penal colony tn
ths Paclflo ocean should be established, where they would be a
minimum of exoense -o the iroetrn-
ment. Clod's mills ermd alowlv. b'i~

Conqueror of McLarnin Goes
Down to Ignoble Defeat
in 24 Seconds
AUDITORIUM. St Paul, Mln., Fsb.
3 (AP)—Billy petrolle, surprise conqueror of Jimmy McLarnin and
Tony Canzoneri, met his Waterloo
tonight.
Just 34 seconds after hs raised
his hands to defend himself agalnat
tbe rushes of King Tut, wild swinging youngster from Minneapolis,
Petrolle sat on his haunches in his
own corner with his bead banging
orer the second rope—a knockout
victim.
A terrific right hand blast to the
chin delivered almost before Petrolle
knew what hit him, was ths punch
that did the damage. His knees
began to bend and Tut. fighting
with the ferociousness of a tiger,
opened up with a barrage of lefts
and rights to tbe bead. AU of
these blows found their mark and
Petrolle collapsed. He tried to
struggle to his feet at the count
of nine but his benumbed legs refused to respond and he sat there
with his head hanging over the
ropes while the referee counted blm
out.
I'NABLF   TO   LAND  A  BLOW
Petrolle, caught ln Tufa soiaring
whirlwind of punches, was unable to
land a single blow _n hia wild
swinging for. All be could do was
clinch In a courageous effort to
survive that first right hand belt
to the chin.
The battle was over almost before
It started, and the record-breaking
crowd of 9500 sat dumbfounded at
tbe   startling   finish.
Tbe knockout wss the first time
tbs battle scarred Petrolle bad even
been counted out although he had
previously lost on technical knockout*, once to Tommy Herman and
tbe last time to Tommy Orogan.
Both Petrolle and Tut easily made
the required weight, eacb scaling
1381-.   pounds  at   3   pm.
SEED    PRODUCTION
The objective of the seed production policy of the federal de

t*ansdlan farmers through conveniently localized production. Digby
and Yarmouth counties in Nova
Scotia have produced 1700 pounds
of registered and 2500 pounds of
commercial turnip seed for 1930;
many thousands of bushels of registered seed oats have been produced In tbe Martlme provinces, together with considerable quantl-
tltles of registered seed wheat and

FT^NIE B. a, Peb. 2—The l»t
game of the east Kooteaiy league
to be played on Pemie Ice took
place Saturday night, between Pernio and Klmberley. After an exhibition of speedy, but very loose
hockey with many goals, Klmberley came out victorious with a
score of 0-8. The monotony of too
many goals was relieved twl:e during the game by difference* which
grew Into fights. The first resulted ln one man being carried off
the ice and the referee knocked out
for a few minutes, but the second
had no casualties. Timely polce interference prevented either from
growing into a general melee.
Penalties were handed out aplenty and during the last period five
men were rarely seen on the Ice
at one time for any one side. Kim-
berely showed a marked superiority in their combination, with Mackie leading their forward line down
time and time again ln perfect
plays. Klmberley ls now tied with
Fernie la the league both having
four games while Lumberton has
two.
KIMBERLEY   TAKES   LEAD.
Bight from the faoeoff Klmberley
grabbed the rubber and headed it
down the Ice ln a series of combination plays that caught Fernie
asleep. They pelted tn two goals
ln quick succession on this offensive, Livingstone and Jones doing
_e scoring.
Fernie soon recovered however and
the game began to even up. With
a supreme effort Berkov, of the
local team skated through and got
a tally for bis aide. Mackie of the
concentrator town then got Into action and was not stopped before
two more goals were added to the
visitors score. The home team was
not so slow Itself however for they
retaliated with two of their own,
off the sticks of Mllbum and Berkov.
The second period started out
rough, and remained that way. Pen.
altles were -drawn every few minutes
by both te>.ms, The score mountsd
rapidly, Femie tlelng It, and Klmberley breaking the tie twice ln
a row. P. Johnson and Berkov tallied for Fernie and Livingstone
with his wicked shot to the corner
of the net, and Botterll did the
honors for Klmberley. Klmberley
seemed to gain their points with
comparative ease after combination
plays while Fernie got theirs by pure
hard work.
FERNIE PLAYERS PUT l_> FIGHT
In the last period Fernie players
found lt impossible, try as they
would, to even up the score The
visitors remained one goal up continually and played a fine defensive gume.
Each team got two goals making
the total 0-8 for Klmberley Mackie
and Botterll scored for ths winners
and Atkinson and Thompson for the
home team.
The  lineups   were   as   follows-
Fernie: Qosl; pep Colton, Mil-
burn and Bmollck, defense- Berkov
Atkinson. F. Johnstone, J Thompson, F. Johnson and O. peters

followed by the government's reconsideration of Its decision not to
participate in this year's contest, la
a telegram to the press said:
"I have received a telegram saying the government Insisted that
bankers' guarantee be given by
Thursday for the 1100.000 which I
have promised. This is the sort of
insult that only the labor government could be guilty of- I have
Instructed  ray  bankers  to do  this,"
"Previously Lady Houston, known
as "Lady Bountiful" because of her
huge gifts to charity, had wired
Premier Ramsay MacDonald her offer ."to prevent the labor government from being poor sports." She
aald she would make up any expense money which Sir Philip Bassoon, head of the British Royal
Aero club, was unable to raise.
Lint Thursday Mr. MacDonald
told the house of commons he had
been told the money to finance
the cup race would be raised from
private sources. He said the government was prepared to authorize defense of ths Schneider trophy
by tbe Royal Air force, provided
assurance wss given Immediately
that the necessary funds would be
available from such sources.

AINTREE. Liverpool, England, Peb.
•J—(C. P.)—The Orand National
steeplechase, greatest event of Its
kind In the world, remains as purale-
lng as ever. This year's race will' be
run on March 21. Restrictions were
imposed when It was feared that
the popularity of the new Irish hospitals' sweepstake might affect the
entry list, but entries number 85,
one more than last year.
The winners had placed horses ln
ths last two Orand Nationals are
all back in the contest. They sre
Shaun Oollln, Melleray's Belle, Sir
Lindsay and Glangesla, respectively
first, second, third and fourth In
1S30; and Oregalach. Easter Hero
and Richmond II.. first .second and
third In 1929. Of this small but
distinguished group probably Easter
Hero, owned by tbe United States
turfman, John Hay Whitney, will
command most attention. He looked like the winner In 1939 until he
spread a plate near the finish.
Two dozen others of this year's
entry have had experience over the
remarkably difficult National course
of four miles and 856 yards. Top
weight of 175 pounds will be carried for the third time by Easter
Hero. Otb, owned by B. D. Davis, a
consistent winner ln the lesser
known National Hunt events, can-tag
second highest Impost of 173 pounds.
Shaun Oollln Ls next with 173;
Oregalach and East Oalway ara
bracketed with 188 and Kakushtn,
who ha* shown great promise at
times, gets in  with   167 pounds.
Sir Lindsay ls set to carry 160
pounds. Oyl Lovam, unknown In
England but with a very high
reputation front Europe ls allotted
157; Richmond Second, 154; Melleray's Belle 150; and Olangeata
150. 80 much for the weights.
This year the only horses allowed In ths Orand National are those
who have, been placed in a steeplechase at three miles or more; or
else over any distance at Aln-
tree; and who have won. a steeplechase worth 82500 to the winner,
selling events In every case excepted. Of course, had these restrictions
not been imposed, the entry would
probably have been very much larg
er.
Of the 85 entered 33 dropped out
at the calling of first uon-accept-
ances on Jan. 28. A number of thess
had failed to qualify under the new
rules, however. Among the withdrawals wsre Oberstown Prince,
Florin Second. Aulnay, and Image,
who had failed to qualify; and East
Oalway,   Brlght's   Boy   and   Bayview.
Probably 40 horses will start the
long grind on March 27. The value
to the winner will be a Uttle more
than 845.000, while the starting
fee for each horse will again be
8500. The race wa* worth a good
bit more two years s_h, when the
record  field  of 66 started.
The Orand National was first run
In 1830. A syndicate had taken
over tho lease of the grand stand
and racecourse at Alntree. Each runner had to pay 8100 and the added
money was 8500. The race was restricted to gentlemen riders, a rule
which was perhaps laxly observed,
and It was not a handicap, the
weight for each runner being 167
pounds. The first race had 17 starters and was won by Lottery, ridden
by Jim Mason, who wss known as
a tremendous dandy. He invariably
wore white kid gloves when riding.
In 1840 It waa Lottery's fate to fall
at t;.e wall, an obstacle which
has long since disappeared from
Atntree, replaced by others quite
as formidable. The race became a
handicap ln 1848. The minimum
weight for some years wu 133
pounds, with which light impost
Sunloch won In 1914. Tha minimum
was later Increased to 140 pounds,
and this year tt has been raised to 147. As 175 pounds remains
the maximum, the best-cla_n competitors have a more favorable
chance this year than ever before.
Entries from Ireland, famed breeding-ground of great steeplechasers.
do not appear aa numerous or aa
strong in quality as ln previous
years. Probably the explanation is
that aa soon as tbe Jumpers In Ireland begin to show good form
nowadays they are quickly unapped
up for English stables. Among the
Irish entrants this year Is the clever mare Oeorglnatown, winner of
the Valentine steeplechase here lut
autumn.
The Caecho-Siovaklan entrant, oyl
Lovam, Is a source of much Interest. He will be ridden by his owner.
Captain ft. Popler, who Is chief
Instructor of the Ceecho-Slovak army
riding school. Oyl Lovam. a nine-
year-old gelding, comes to Aln tree
with the suppprt of a syndicate of
Captain Popler's countrymen, including Jan Haaaryk, the Czech minister
to 'London. The horse ls said to
be a fsltless Jumper with great
stamina. He has just arrived ln
England and Is completing training
at Banger-on-dee.
Another unexpected continental
entry is M. Olry-Doederer's Aulnay,
a winner at nu and Auteuil but
not considered by English experts
to have much of a chance tn the
tough Alntree feature.
EAST AND WEST KOOTENAY HOCKEY
PLAY-OFFS SCHEDULED BE PLAYED
IN TRAU ON FEBRUARY 17,19 AND 21
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., Feb. >
(AP)—Having   attained   on   unofficial   speed   or   240   miles  an
hour    today,     On*.      Malcolm
Campbell,   veteran   British   race
car   driver,   announced    tonight
he would make his official trial
Oor    the    world's    land    speed
reoord   tomorrow,     beacb    and
weather   conditions    permitting.
In   one   tremendous   burst   of
speed,  he  drove  his   trim   Blue
Bird   r.trlng  oar over  the  nine-
mile stretch of beach at a sate
of   approximately   four   miles   a
minute, and afterwards declared
he was "tickled  to death" with
the  machine's  performance.
As  Campbell  removed   his  goggles
and climbed out of the huge racing
car, a crowd of spectators gathared
about and cheered.
BEST   BBACH   YET
"The beach was the best I hsve;
ever seen lt snd if lt is still good!
tomorrow, I shall go for the official
record   then,"   be  said.
Although Campbell's speed today
exceeded by approximately nine miles
an hour the present world's official
land speed reoord of 381. tt wss
not officially recognised as lt wu
not officially timed. Furthermore,
he made only one run, whereas
regulations specify a driver must
make two trials, one with the wind
and the other against it.
Campbell put the 1450 horsepower machine in motion near the
north end of the course, but was
compelled to stop suddenly when he
discovered smoke and flames under
the hood. A motorcycle policeman
with a fire extinguisher ran up and
extinguished the blaze near the
carburetor. Without stopping to
inspect the motor Campbell started
off again. When he passed the
grandstand several miles down the
beach, the machine appeared to be
functioning perfectly. It flashed by
with a mighty roar, and ln a few
seconds had disappeared at tbe south
end of the beach.
The return trip up the beach was
msde at a slow pace. Campbell
explained tbat he did not care to
press   his  car  tn   practice.

CANADIAN LEGION
HEAD, KIMBERLEY
Will Attempt to Have Membership of 100: Poppy
Fund Supplies $120
KIMBERLEY, B. C, Fe. 3.—The
annual meeting of the Klmberley
branch of the Canadian Legion was
held at the I. O. O. F. hall on January 18, when a large and representative meeting was the result.
Officers elected for 1931 were; T.
J. Bride, president; L. W. Bonnell,
vice-president; R. Clements, P. Lye,
M. P. Anderson, F. Burnn and J.
E.  Webster, executive.
Teh election of secretary-treasurer
was left over until the next executive meeting as th offlqe has
been held by L. W. Bonnell for
the past three years, through whose
interest and hard work the Legion
Is In the position it Is today, and
lt ls hoped he may try to see his
way to carry on tor 1931.
SECRETARY'S   REPORT
The   secretary's   report   said:
"In presenting my third annual
report as secretary, tt gives me
great pleasure to report that the
Klmberley branch nas marked a
stage when lt can be called a really
active branch. This has been entirely due to efforts or the officers
and members as a whole. We round
our membership has Increased 36
per cent during the past year and
now stands at 09 paid members to
date and they are really live members with the Interest of the Legion
at heart and the spirit o! comradeship which has been one of the
relics of the Oreat war.
HOPE  TO  HAVE  100 MEMBERS
"One objective for 1931 will be
100 members in good standing. The
monthly meetings whloh were followed by a social hour added considerably to the success attained
during the past year, I would suggest to the incoming officers to
set a monthly date to hold meetings and carry on a similar plan
of socials and to have Inserted In
tht press a regular Legion card,
giving date, time and place of such
meeting*' and also inviting visit;n?
legionnaires. All this would be more
businesslike and save confusion.
"Regarrdlng the work of the office during the past year, lt has
been more or less routine. We havt
six pensions cases pending readjustment under the newly-enacted
pensions leg__datlon passed September 1, 1930. We are now informed that the British Columbia
tribunal has been formed and hope
toon to have every case gone over
thoroughly and It ls now up to
each and every veteran of the
Great war in Klmberley to Join the
ranks and help in the great work
whlc hthls tribunal has to perform.
MARKMND PREMIER
ADVOCATE
"I am glad to inform you that
an old comrade, D. F. Markland,
who for several years had the office of secretary-treasurer. Fernie
board, has been appointed a premier advocate for British Columbia
and a splendid choloe has been
made as he knows the veterans"
problems from A to Z. We have
two widow's pension cases to deal
with, one having already been refused and under the old pension
board, and the other a new applicant. These will be -settled satisfactorily under the new board. It
might be well at this time to urge
every veteran who ls suffering from
any cause attributed to war service
to hand ln thes_ particulars to tlie
local Legion secretary so that w«*
can give these men ever.' assistance
as this Is the main object of the
Legion and our branch in Klmberley
waa founded to that express purpose.
"If a **r veteran cannot afford
to Join the Legion lt makes no
difference and we have to help him.
*'Durr*g the past year, g 130.83 ha*
been disbursed for relief of distressed veterans and widows frpm
our local poppy fund. The sale of
popples at Armistice In 1930 was
\ery successful and the people of
Klmberley and district have our
warmest thanks and appreciation
for their generosity for supporting
this worthy fund, as a considerable
number of d saWed veterans nuke
those little popples to help mak**
their life a little more cheerful and
at the same time making a little
money for themselves and their
families.

period for the past five years. We
have heard lt mentioned indirectly
that the Legion get the popples
through the government and the
gross receipts represent the gross
profit. An instance will have to
elucidate this asaumpt on. The
Klmberley branch cf the Canadian
Legion last Armistice (1930) purchased 1000 large and 500 small
poppies from the Vetcraft shops at
Victoria, British Columbia, throug'i
the British Columbia command cf
the Canadian Lgelon at Vancouver,
the only organization through
which these popples are sold. Thes*1
popples. together with 10 sma"'
wreaths, cost us 1118.40. Referring i
to the receipts for 1930 of $188.80
leaves a balance of $70.76 whleh
goes to the credit of our local
poppy  fund.
"During the same year (1930)
$120.88 has been disbursed for
the relief of distress, or $50.07 more
than  was rece ved  for  1930.
"It can readily bo seen that our
poppy fund is anything but Allad-
ln's   lamp.
"The   financial   statement  of  the
fund  to  date  ls  as follows;

NTW TORS, Teh. 3.—(AP)—The
stock market, Indolent a* the sleepy
ground hog, spent most ol today m
hibernation. However, It d.d emerge
from its burrow ot* dullness ln the
final hour of trading, sufficiently
roused to close with small net
gains.
There was scaroelr enough activity to move prices either way until
mid-afternoon. The day's news although not part.cularly startling,
was of a color to please tbe shorts,
for two of the Standard Oil companies and * large metal producer
cut their dividends.
DROPS   TO   LOWER   LEVEL
The market was mostly lower whlls
these announcements were being
digested, tit so inert d.d the trading become that only 300,000 shares
changed hands between noon and
3:10  o'clock.
Activity during the lat# improve*
ment was sufficient to bring the
day's business to approximately 1.-
200,000  shares.
Oils refused to be much disturbed by th« dividend action of
Standards of Indiana and Kansas,
nor were the metals bothered by
International Nickel's cut. The
utilities dropped at times, but American Telephone more than made
up a two-point loss. Steels and
some of the speo.altiee came forward with gains of a point or so,
which prevailed at the doe*.

FRANCE BEGINS
TO FEEL PINCH
OF DEPRESSION
Looks Like a Budget Deficit
of $40,000,000: Exports
Decline
PARIS, Feb., 3.—(By Oeorge Ham-
bleton, Canadian Press Staff Correspondent)—Pranes is beginning to
feel the pinch of tbe world depression. The declining revenues of tba
country sre likely to result in *
budget deficit of billion francs, or
forty million dollsrs.
Prance's exports show a decline.
Unemployment ls growing snd what
particularly hits the Frenchman of
moderate means ts thst the cost of
living still climbs.
All through the world crisis,
Franc* has, so far been little affected- While Oermany. England And
the united Stateh had armies of unemployed, Francs hsd no unemployment problem worth mentioning.
Bae counted her idle workers ln
thousands were they counted theirs
ln millions.
But tbe present situation ls glv
ing rise to some concern. Tbe unemployed, who In Deoember were estimated to number 104)00, now appear 1q the official returrns as being between 80,000 and 40,000 and
tbe official figures admittedly do not
tell the whole story.
NO KKASON FOR ANXIETY
"There ls no reason for anxiety."
lt was stated at Qual D*Oraay today.
"But precautions will be taken to
protect the French workmen from
the conditions which prevail ln
othsr   countries" Long-planned
schemes to increase ths national efficiency by way of building workers
ars, lt Is understood, to bs carried
out. On this programme, it Is Intimated, polltloal parties are ln agreement no matter how sharply they
dlifer on other questions.
France also hss an important
safety valve in the number of for-1
elgn workmen within her borders,
men sdmttted under contract dur-
ing ths dsys when France was restoring her devastated areas. They
can be returned as the contracts expire. These workmen are moetly
Italians and Polea. The number of
foreign workmen In France ls said
to be around 3,000,000.

Kelson Rotarians at their weekly
luncheon meeting Monday accepted
an Invitation from the high and
public schools, to be represented at
a conference with the school beard
Friday night, when tne possibility
of Junior orchestras attached to
the  schools  will   be  discussed.
E. P, Dawson and O. A. Brown,
members of the school board, explained that the suggestion originated with Roes Fleming, and that Mr.
Fleming's Idea was tbat musicians
could be hired to teach the various
instruments, after school hours, the
interested pupils making payments
from time to time to cover tuition
and payment for the Instruments.
As these payments came ln, Mr.
Brown explained, the fund could
be used to purohase new instruments
for other pupils. Mr. Brown said a
relatively substantial fund would be
needed at the. start for the purchase
of instruments, but that after that
the fund would become practically
a revolving fund.
MANY   FAVOR   IDEA
It was explained that the school
board was ln no way bound by
the proposal at this stage, and that
sending of delegates by the Rotary
club would not bind the club, as
only discussion was contemplated
at this conference.
Many members of the club favored,
strongly the idea of developing
young musicians in the schools
under some such plan. J. 8. Carter
recalled hearing at Spokane the
Coeur d'Alene school band and suggested that facts regarding lt be
obtained. R. J. Hewitt and others
felt that when the plan was worked
out" the Rotary club should assist
with   financial   support.
President   C.   B.   Garland   named
A. T.  Horswlll  and  P. O. Money  as
the   Rotary   representatives   for   the
purpose  of the  conference.
LABORATORY    URGEJD
The club was also Invited, this
time by Drs. F. M. Auld and E. C.
Arthur, acting apparently on behalf
of or pursuant to action by the
West Kootenay Medical association,
to send a representative or representatives to the city council session of
February 16, to urge a grant toward
the proposed Kootenay pathological
laboratory at Nelson, and it accepted
the  invitation.
Dr. E. L. Reld explained the proposition ln detail, dwelt on the great
: service such an institution would be
to the Kootenay, and stated .that
practically all West Kootenay centers,
and Grand Forks, had agreed to
contribute  toward the  first coat, of
which the department of health i
would bear half. While the East
Kootenay centers bad not yet obligated themselves, he said, bs felt
confident that as soon as they saw ■
tb* Institution In operation and |
found what a servce lt was perform- j
tug for them, tbey would Join in
contributing.
Dr. John Gansner suggested that I
tb* club ahould also send a strong j
resolution to the provincial authorities and to Dr. L. X. Borden, M.
P. P., urging the proposed provincial
grant, and It wsa agreed tbat this
should be referred to the board of
directors.
President Garland, at the suggestion of various members, will probably be the delegate on this matter.

In order that the Jirty gang of

Alderman .Roes Fleming, chalrma*

urged the city council Mondav
night to authorize the construction
of cribbing on Vernon street fronting the old Nelson Laundry, between   Josephine   and   Hall  streets
Thla cribbing will extend over a
length of about 90 feet and Poles
taken from the rebuilding of the
c.ty electrical power lines will bo
used. Pill could be obtained from
work to be done on improvement
at the east end of Baker street.
Engineer Boyd C. Affleck had no
estimate as to cost but declared the
work waa feasible at present. The
council  ordered  the  work  done.

The gas oommittee of the Nelaon
city oouncil will look Into a complaint lodged with the olty by E- W.
Wlddowson, local assayer. Mr. Wid
dowson oo Monday night returned
his gas bill of $5.90 to ths council.
He declared ln a letter that the gas
had been charged wrongly and that
he wanted the bill corrected. The
charges were excessive for gas. If
the rate persisted he would have to
cut off the gas service and substitute other appartus so that he
could compete with other firms similar  to his in the province.
Alderman J. B. Oray informed the
new council members that last year
the city fixed a new gas rata. Instead of rates for beating, cooking,
etc., one rate covered all branches
had been set. The fljures were
•2.22 per 1000 for the first 2000
feet used, and $1.25 for each additional  thousand  feet  used.
Mayor Morgan said a consumer
had to be a big user of gas to get a
cheap rate, but that under the existing bylaw the council oould do
nothing. A change ln the Wlddowson bill would mean changing bills
for all consumers. He hinted that
If the gas rates were excessive the
council should deal with the bylaw.
Aldermen Fleming and Gray argued the point, but upon Alderman
Fleming moving that the matter be
referred to the gas oommittee for
perusal the oouncil divided equally
with Aldermen Fleming, Lindsay
and Campion favoring the motion
and Aldermen Gray, Smythe and
Dawaon opposing it. Mayor Morgan
cast a vote ln favor, and the matter
will be threshed out by the gas
committee.

turned in the alarm. The fire
truck and the crew of fighters arrived a few seconds later, but in

On the chance that Sansalcne had
left town, the police sent warnings
out to all points in the district to
watch for him, and as he was not
found in his ubusI haunts yesterday morning, it was thought he was
probably  gone.
It turned out, however, that the
man being sought was consulting
counsel, and about 2 o'clock E. O.
Matthew, his counsel, and Sansalone started ln a cat* for the
polloe station. On Baker street,
while Sansalone was In a tobacco
store buying cigarettes, Sergt. Stewart came up, and Mr. Matthew advised him that Sansalone would be
on hgpd to be arrested in a moment or two. He was duly arrested,
searched, and locked up.
Under ordinary conditions, the nc-

court today, to be charged, but a
remand will undoubtedly take place.
Dr. Rose stated last night that
Bailey had a fair chance of recovery
