His answer to the criticisms that loans were not being made in the smaller cities of the east, nor ln the west, was that this business wu a matter of supply and demand, and that there wu no substantial demand in the imall centeri for new building. If houiing loam were made in auch center!, he suggested, in the cue ot default the mortgagees would be unable to sell without loss. He Insisted that loans were not being confined to Toronto and Montreal, or to Ontario and Quebec, and asserted that Halifax, Winnipeg, Vancouver and Victoria were all in the enjoyment ot housing loans from lending Institutions under the act. So lar u this province goes, this information contradicts that trom other sources, though some eutern companiei repreiented in the province are now advising that they will receive application! for loam tor home construction ln Vancouver.

WM EASTER BRIDE WEARS LILAC OTTAWA, April 7 (CP).—Labor Minister Rogen, who disgardcd the cap and gown of a univenity professor for the frenzied, harrassed life of a cabinet minister, sat in thc house of commoni today tor six long houn while members fired at him suggestions on how lo deal with his particular national problem, unemployment. The government bill to establish a ' national employment commission was progressing slowly through committee stage while the minister heard these suggestions: The British North America act should be amended. Wealth should be taxed. The unemployed not on relief should be registered and catalogued. Confidence should be restored in | Canada. Relief allowances In the provinces should be standardized. Something should be done for youth. Exploitation of labor should be ' stopped. Proper working conditions should be established for relief recipients on municipal jobs. Balanced diets should be defined for the unemployed. Fish should be served on the tables of relief camps. Hard-boiled businessmen should not be appointed to the employment commission. Farmers should be allowed to negotiate small loans ot $300 and $400 to recondition houses. The building of expensive police and military barracks should be -topped. The commission should cooperate with employment services. The tourist traffic should be fostered, including thc building of roads into national parks, connecting points on tlie international border. Something should be done for eliost-towns in the coal mining areas of Vancouver Island. The Alberta-Saskatchewan boundary should be resurveyed. More trees should be planted. Raise the tariff.

REPORTER (Continued From Page Om i We hid been flying half an hour from Gura with CapL Giovanni Dauria and Major Piero FerretU at the dual'control of an eight-ton Savoia bomber, holding two tons of explosives and a ton and a halt of gasoUne, through perfect skies and over Aduwa and Aksum when the radio crackled. Sergt. Gentile Cesare brought a message from the scouting plane: "Bomb a column of Ethiopian quadruped! in the river bed of Addi Uaffet, near Axio." Pink-cheeked Lieut Francesco Possenisto, only 24 but the finest bombshot in the whole army, slipped down into the glass pit ln the undercarriage and I went with him. We passed over the huge iquare of Amba Aradam and the spike ot Mount Amba Alagi, sticking into the sky over the tortuoui terrain of the northern mountalni, that from tbe air looked like the aerried brown back! of huge oyster shells. Three-quarters of the way to Dessye with two other of our squadron and three additional bombers foUowing behind we found the valley ot Uaffet and Axio. Suddenly in the brown vaUey, luxuriant with vegetation* we law strung out groupi ot perhapi SOO Ethiopians in dirty ihammai and about 2000 mules, horses and camels. TRY TO HIDE The sound of the swooping planes made the huddled groups try to hide their bulky animals behind the protection of trees. Our plane wheeled, dove and thundered at them less than 800 leet from the ground, so close we could see the black men swaying desperately at the reins of their mules. Camels stuck their long necks skyward, looking for the noise. Then Framesco started puUing levers. We dropped 24 of the 80-pound bombs, several pairs of M-pounders in clusters and I saw at least 10 strike squarely in the middle of frantic groups. The exploilons were io terrific ind wi were* io neir thit the plant rocked tnd through the clouds of imoke shattered bodiei were easily vlilble flying throi(gh the air. Piero wirelessed headquarters: By LUCIEN LELONG Special Cable to Central Pren PARIS—Although I am a staunch advocate ot tradition, and all the dignity and accumulated, imposing beauty that it implies, I am one of the first to acknowledge that ln many fields it hampers the ipirit of creation. Following tradition lavishly li apt to lead to stagnation and produce nothing but mere duplication — and duplication obviously lacks the ipirit of an original. I have observed that reUgiouily following tradition! cm be particularly disastrous to a designer of clothes. I was strongly impressed by this tact a few seasons ago when contemplating the traditional bridal gown of white, WhUe many women can wear white and find that it enhances their natural charms, I am willing to wager that there are equally as many women who cannot. On the occasion, above all otheri, when this latter type wishes to look most beautiful, she is handicapped by the bugbear of the "white bride". So then and there I decided to create the bridal gown ln color. CHANGE CRITICISED At tint, iuch a departure was hailed aa being "frivolous", "undignified", etc—the usual criticisms that foUow in tht wake of any innovation. But gradually people began to realize that the bridal gown in a soft pastel shade is equally as beautiful, it not more so, than a cold glaring white. The prospective bride who finds white so unflattering can now realize the dream of her girlhood—that on her bridal day ihe wlU be her most exquisite self. For this season's Easter bridal gown I bave chosen a very pale lilac—a delicate shade that ia inconspicuous, yet subtly warm; qualities that can never be attributed to dead white. I do not wish to give the impression that I am denouncing white as a bridal color. For the young woman who finds it appropriate, I heartily recommend it, I would suggest-only that It be a subdued white, rather than a blatant one. My lilac bridal gown for Easter, 1930, is is simple and as subtle as the color itself. It has long, Ught sleeves, a high, round neckline, with interest concentrated on the skirt Finely pleated panels, starting at either hipline, float gracefully to the hem of the gown. The tulle veU, also in lilac, is held on the head by a discreet band ot lilac-colored flowers. I would suggest that no floral bouquet be carried with the bridal gown in Ulac, or only white HUes. Blending the colorings would be difficult, and orchids are of course too sophisticated.

TURKEY AND THE DARDANELLES The formal manifestation by Turkey of her intention to request the League of Nations to revise the Lausanne Treaty in order that she may re-fortify the Dardanelles cannot have come aa a surprise to any of the'powers interested. The present year had hardly dawned before cables from Europe stated more or less definitely that Turkey would soon seek a revision of the Lausanne pact. The recent action of Hitler in denouncing the Locarno agreement has now been seized upon by Turkey as a strategic basis for the advancement of her own claims. Her disavowal of any intention of a unilateral denunciation of the treaty, or of any intent to fortify the Dardanelles without the approval of the powers, leaves the matter open for discussion. Turkey has never forgotten the humiliation forced upon her by the terms of the Lausanne Treaty in 1923. Prior to the Great War she possessed the right, guaranteed under a treaty with Great Britain, to prevent the passage of any non-Turkish ships if she desired to do so. This enabled her to close the Dardanelles and the Black sea at will to the warships of any foreign power. Conditions have completely changed since then, of course. Russia, formerly Turkey's enemy, has been consistently helping Kemal Ataturk to build up a modern Turkey in Asia. The recently concluded Franco-Russian treaty naturally brings France into line, and it i$ not to be supposed that she will oppose the Turkish demand for security, more particularly since this would also mean security for Russia's submarine fleet from the warships of other nations in case of necessity. It is not likely that action in regard to the matter will be hasty.but it is altogether probable that when it does come before the League, there Will be a liberal interpretation of Turkey's representations, in view of the fact it has been understood in Paris for some time that Turkey's price for complete cooperaiton with the other powers in regard to Ethiopia includes her right to re- fortify the Dardanelles, and the return of the Island of Rhodes to Turkey, or a special international administration for that island. The likelihood of any prolonged opposition seems remote, although it is more than probable that Turkey will be required to gi\. adequate guarantees against interference with legitimate trade between Black sea ports and the outside. Britain is well disposed towards Turkey at the present time, and with both Russia and France in accord, the only other Mediterranean power able to bring any influence to bear is Italy, and no action by Italy in this connection is expected to hinder a friendly adjustment of the Dardanelles situation, though naturally she will hang on to Rhodes with all her strength. The formal declaration of Turkey's intention to proceed within the framework of the League of Nations may be said to render any 'likelihood of conflict remote. ALBERTA'S DEFAULT Alberta, says the Edmonton Journal* "is in a position of unenviable distinction. It is the first Canadian province to default oh its bonds. "The government has had pointed out to it repeatedly how serious the consequences were bound to be of its failure to meet the maturity. It was strongly advised to accept the terms on which the federal authorities would come to its asistance, thus enabling it to preserve its credit. But it has declined to do so and there must be the deepest concern over the results of its decision, accompanied as this has been by the compulsory refunding legislation. "The Dominion cabinet is not at all open to criticism for its refusal to furnish the funds with which to pay off the $3,200,000 bond issue. It could not go on advancing money for such purposes to the provinces in need of help unless they indicated their willingness to enter into the arrangements which received the approval of the Dominion-provincial conference at Ottawa in January. These were of a wholly reasonable character. No province was under any compulsion to become a party to the loan council plan. But the federal ministers took the position that those which did not would have to solve their own financial problems. The men charged with the responsibility of protecting the interests of the country at large had to adopt that attitude. # # # "Mr. Aberhart and his cabinet associates were told by their financial advisor, Mr. Magor, that the function of the loan council would be 'soley to the advantage of the province.' He urged them to make a 'statesmanlike decision' by accepting it and to remember that 'in their special spheres the Dominion and provincial governments are representing the same people.' It was a time, he held, for 'strong leadership.' "That leadership has not been given in the handling of the emergency that reached its climax in default. After all that Mr. Aberhart has said since he came into office about there being no danger that anything of the kind would happen, he will have much explaining flto do now that 'the thing that couldn't has occurred.'"

Head of the Department of Parent Education, Cleveland College, Western Reserve University. 1 4- AUNT HET By ROBERT QUILLEN GIRL DOES NOT CARE FOR PARTIES Ever so many persons write me about some remote member of the family or some neighbor's child. "Dear Sir: Mri. , who ll un- •ble to write in Engliih, requested I write you in behalf of her 17-year- old daughter, in regard to her posture. Her diughter site and stands in a stooped position, and continues to do it to much that ihe is becoming hollow chested. Regardless of her mother's reminding her of her posture, she doesn't care or seem to show tny Interest in it "Sht is an A-student. She studies and reads aU the time; even during the summer vacation ahe reads continually, never taking part in any outdoor sports. She doesn't care for dances and parties, and usually retire! it 9:30 p.m. ' i "Her appetite ts poor. She is becoming thin and complaining ot fatigue at the least exercise or exertion . . . Her mother wishes to know if there are any special exercises she could follow that would help her posture." TALK WITH TEACHERS My answer was about like this: Advise that you go and have a talk wtth her teachers, especially her physical education teacher. Since you have good schools in your city, you might expect to get considerable help from them. Perhaps the homeroom teacher might be induced to take a personal interest in thii child. She in turn might be able to elicit the interest of a few classmates of the girl who could win her to take part ii} Some of the school activities and have more social enjolment. Hundreds'of youth are lik. her. They are good students, don't bother anybody and nobody bothers about them. Being socially timid, she escapes the embarrassment of poor competition with the usual fun of those her age by burying herself in books. Not having won success at mixing, personal appearance does not have great value to her. If she can be made to want to be attracUve, she will set out to find ways to gain better posture. But the more the mother talks about that girl's posture, the less she wiU want to improve it. I wish we parents might get this principle through our heads, as applied to hundreds of like problems. Do prevail upon that mother to have this child examined by a competent doctor, at any personal sa*ri* "I notice that old folks ain't never in the way if they've got a bunch s' property to leave."

I aik, can you have public opinion apart from the individuals who make up and constitute your public itself? It not, and the idea that you can ii of course absurd, then how ia your public opinion, every new phase ot it, generated? How and where does each of its new departures itart? What givei it its primary impulse? Surely individual personal thought, Individual personal conviction, individual personal will. You cannot have social action or even social belief, which does not originate in and start from those inner sources of personal energy which make tht individual to be precisely the person he actually is. That is the fount and foundation of aU law and aU responsibility. Without that principle society would be in a state of absolute chaos. Differences in personal individuality are determined by the spontaneous activities of thoie elements of the bl-sexual germ cell out ot which the individual Is constructed. These activities do give an explanation, a sufficiently satisfactory explanation, of the results observed, in terms of cause and effect. They account for the fact, well known to the simplest observation, that certain individuals do possess original faculties and energies in greater degrees of force and efficiency than other individuals, and this fact puts those same individuals the position ot pioneers, and leaders, of the average run of their fellow-men. It is these pioneers and leaders who create, who initiate, who lead the way in the formation of public opinion, and so ot human progress. Mr. Joseph Gray's conception, that social progress is a reaction or response to forces external to the individuals who constitute the society affected is at best nothing more than a historical record or tabulation of results, divorced from explanation in terms of creative or efficient cause. Consequently tht views which he set forth in his letter to the Daily News of February 6 cannot be regarded as in any way an alternative to what he terms Mr. Bealby's theory of social progress. A tabulation of sequences in time is an entirely different thing from an inquiry into efficient and determinative causes. The two I ent planes. In the course of expounding his of tuberculosis. THE DOCTOR SAYS LOGAN CLENDENING. M.D. the Roman coloni, except that It was not they who occupied the status of setts. The coloni, being originally free men, became generally the vassals or tenants of wme barbarian conqueror who had settled in the region they cultivated, giving military aervice and payments In kind for the right to cultivate the toil. Thli was only on the lands, principally in Haly, France and Spain, that had been in Roman handi. In other regions, e.g. Germany and central Europe, the barbarian tribes, once they became settled (6th to 9th centuries), established their traditional and age-old social organization of the village commune, with its mark or common rights of grazing. The mode of life of these peoples hardly changed at all: the mass of the people were free-men, owning each hii odal homesteid and spending his time in warfare and the chase. After the death of the Emperor Charlemagne, these two systems began gradually to fuse or blend together. It was the latter of these two systems of land-ownership which was established in Britain by the Frisian! and their subject allies the Angles of Holstein, the Saxons of the Elbe and the Weser regions, assisted ln the conquest by the Jutes and the Danes, both Gothic peoples. This conquest was almost contemporary with the overthrow of Rome. Five hundred years later William the Norman, a man of None or Viking descent, imposed upon the "mark" system of England a special form of the feudal system, which was the direct product of his own astute itetecrafL Thui there came to be three distinct and different forms of the feudal system. The erudite Von Raumer in his History of the Hohenstaufen Emperors (German), tells us that serfdom was nothing like so widespread is il commonly supposed. He gives several instances of emancipation of serfs in Italy and France, and mention! the general freeing ot them on all the far-reaching imperial do- miim in 1220 by the Emperor Frederick n, though I do not remember that he alludes to the similar act of the French king, Louis, the Tall, about the aame time. He makes it plain that mahy feudal vassals became so by voluntarily attaching themselves to this or the other feudal lord, and the relationship between them assumed many different forms, though all involved the rendering of military service and payment of the producti of the earth in kind. Thus between the serfs and the supreme feudal head, there was a great variety ot daises, vassals, sub-vassals, dependents, household servants and free laborers. Mr. Gray omits also to call attention to the fact that during the later cen- turies of the Middle Ages the prin cipal producers of food and cloth' where TODAY'S GARDEN-GRAPH By DEAN HALLIDAY Copvrtphl, ISM, Centre!

Is it reasonable to suppose that amid such an upheaval and ENGINEERS ON RAILWAY TAKE TESTS There is one noticeable feature j ibout the accident situation In gen- I aral in the United States, which is lhat numerically more drivers ot I private vehicles thtn drivers of pub- ! lie conveyances have accidents. Of course, when the engineer or the pilot of a public carrier has an accident, the damage is greater because there are more people in the public carrier. But If as many public carriers had accidents as individual automobilists it would nearly decimate the population. I believe it is fair to say that a large part of the difference is due to the careful medical inspection of the drivers of public conveyances. One can say that the automobile Occidents are due to slippery streets, lack of tracks, lack of signals at corners, but the comparative statistics of .taxlcab drivers and public bus drivers as against private drivers does not bear this out. And again one must remember the statistics of the Royal Air Force which were that 90 per cent ot their accidents In the wat were due not to deficiencies of the machine nor to enemy hits, but to physical Impair' ment of the flyers. I am told that in 1932 only one passenger was killed on all the railroads in the United States, and in 1935 no passenger was killed on any of the railways of this country. PUBLIC SAFEGUARDED So tar as railroads are concerned, I am greatly impressed with the cire with which the public ii safeguarded to far as their employees ore concerned. The main Idea, of coune, of a physical examination of an applicant for railway aervice is to establish hii physical and intellectual fitness. The clasi trom which engineers, brakemen, switchmen md linemen ire made comei, u a rule, trom smaller towns along the Line of the railway. The applicant's experience with railroading, at l*tit tn the old days, began from youth. Just u a boy in a seaport town walks down to the harbor, watches ihipi and dreams of spending his days as a sea rover, so does the young farmer ln a small town watch the incoming trains on arrival, envies the majestic figure of the engineer in his dungarees, leather gloves and gauntlets. When he reaches adolescence, he makes an attempt to apply for aome form of railway service; tometlmei he starts working on the track as a common laborer. MAY BE DISAPPOINTED His experience ii, to a comlderable extent, laid dowp before he applies for service. Here it may be great disappointment to him to learn that he is color blind or that his rheumatism in youth may prevent his acceptance by the railway company. A careful history of all thetdlseaees he has ever had is rc- two trump tricks, then I led the up the'last missing trump with my purpose OIs-oncocting , theorrtical K before I felt really happy. Having won six ot the first seven tricks the rest was easy, but it was quicker to play it out than to explain to a green player how the rest of the tricks would be mine. At the eighth trick dummy was put in the lead with the A of diamonds. I could hear East sigh as his partner discarded a lpw heart. He for the first time realized what had happened. The next four tricks went to dummy's remaining clubs, while I discarded a lojing diamond and three losers in hearts. The thirteenth trick was won by ruffing dummy's last diamond with my last trump. It wu a close shave for us. ALBERTA FARM LAND Fifteen thousand acres of farm land in Southern Alberta hu just been sold tor $185,000.

What il your weight todlj? or abstract framework for social and economic organization? Then he continues, "There was hunger and insecurity, and the problem facing soci-Vy was how to organize production on a military basis, and the feudal system was the solution to the problem." In the actual circumstances of the case there was no problem at all. The very idea of a "problem" is essentially modern: it is a concept which Implies the perception of a maladjustment of means to end, together with the conscious desire for a remedy or solution. Production was never a matter of conscious deliberation amongst the conquerors of Rome. Those people had for ages been nomads, who depended upon their herds and upon the chase for til the production they needed for living. The fact that they gradually, over a long period, changed their mode of life from that of free warriors, leading a nomad existence, to free warriors settled in a fixed locality did not mtke an atom of difference to their productive powers. Their prisoners taken in warfare, that is their unfree dependents, continued to scratch the soil and reap the harvests which Nature gave, while the free men continued to lead the one worthy manner of life, u they conceived IL fighting and the chase. If Nature failed to give a good or sufficient harvest, there was hunger as to the fruits of the earth; but they had, u time out ot mind they always had had, their herds to tall back upon. In fact, the adoption of a settled mode of life enhanced their security in that they tot rid of the pressure of other nomad tribes pushing them on to wander as the Huns pushed on the Goths. The fruits of the earth were an extra, additional source of plenty which not infrequently had failed them in their previous wanderings. These had ln the case of most of them been going on for certainly 500 to 600 years before the destruction of Rome. Where then was the problem? Where then wu the need for self-organization? THE FEUDAL SYSTEM The Feudal system was nothing like 10 ilmple tnd uniform an institution as Mr. Gray evidently believes It to hive been,, He ii sufficiently accurate ln hii sketch of in a reach of 30 miles there were no less than nine abbeys of thc Cistercians, all engaged in breeding and grazing sheep and selling the wool to the Flemings for spinning and weaving. The same monastic order did excellent work in draining and irrigating the fertile lands of Lombardy in northern Italy. Furthermore for 470 years the pact ot the Peace of God (1027-1495) gave a considerable measure ot security to the cultivators of the soil in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands (including Flanders), and England, the feuds of the turbulent feudal lords being thereby held greatly in check. FREEDOM AND PRODUCTION Mr. Gray tells us, "It is an economic law, that the freer thc association in which society is organized Ihe greater the production. No people have enjoyed a freer social organization than the Teutonic conquerors of Rome, u I have already indicated. Probably peoples in any age ever were freer or more independent than the an cient Scandinavians, where every free man (lord or peasant) wu the absolute owner of the land (odal) he dwelt upon; yet their production except on the Danish islands and in southern Sweden (Scania) was inconsiderable. In tact, it was thc shortage of food at home which started the summer raiding overseas of the Viking bands. Another, though more modern, race of people who enjoyed 1 remarkable degree of freedom politically were the Cossacks of Russia: but they also were a people who despised agriculture and ot industrial production they had none. If this proposition be true, then the converse must be equally true, namely the len of freedom a people enjoy, the smaller will be their production. Consequently any organized society which proposes to practice planned and controlled Industry such as socialism has in mind, will produce less than a free community which manages iti affairs on a buls of Individual initiative. Russia at thil present time is a striking Instance of this. No workman there enjoys either political or social freedom; but is obliged to work just where be is ordered to work, and at just the kind of work that is prescribed, and to take whatever wage the ruling class choose to give him. and we have been told again and again, that It takes three or more Russian factory workers to produce as much as one American workman in the lame ipace of time. From the 9th century down to the end of the medieval period (at the Reformation) both Flanders and the Netherlands enjoyed a very considerable degree of democratic freedom. But while Flanders became famoui tor her production ot cloth and fine linen (cambric), the Netherlands,, who remained pastoral, produced comparatively little. Why thii difference? Again, Switzerland, after successfully defying the Emperor (end of ISth century) became one of tht freest and most democratic countries in Europe; but down to modern times her eco- nomic production was of little account. On the other hand, the people ot EgypL which in ancient j times was described as the granary | of Rome, have never at any period of their hiitory (until the present century) been a free people; yet\ their country has always been re-. markably productive. Thus, there appear to be more exceptions to Mr. Gray's generalization than i there are examples of iL He tells us further, that "Feudalism was well adapted to Northern Europe, where the infertile lands were brought under production.". Surely Mr. Gray must know that nowhere in the world are there more naturally fertile soils than tlie coast- lands (England, Scotland, Flanders Netherlands, Holstein) all round the North sea (Jutland and Norway excepted); and along with them the Danish islands, the southern province ot Sweden (Scania) Mecklenburg, the valleys of the Elbe and the Saale, Westphalia and the valleys of the Rhine and the Weser. j During the middle ages the middle! and north ot Germany, as well as the Scandinavian peninsula were' densely wooded, so that agrlcul-1 tural production had necessarily to > be restricted. Indeed it wu during | the 13th century that there was a 1 notable movement ot emigration { from the Netherlands and north-1 western Germany to the east of the Empire (Silesia and Poland). Except' ln Flanders agriculture in all these j countries continued to be carried | on without much real improvement —in England until the end of the 16th century, when a change came, chiefly through the efforts of Bake- well and Arthur Young, and in Germany iome forty years later in consequence of the labours ot the chemist Lieblg, Mr. Gray generalizes also with regard to the Renaissance, but I must reserve my remarks on that for another letter.

Set Modern Play-Off Record on Their Own Ice DETROIT, April 7 (CP).-Detrolt Red Wings, soaring with unerring precision towards heights that would establish them as one of the great hockey teams of all time, conquered Toronto Maple Leafs 9-4 here tonight ln the second game of the Stanley cup series. The aggregate score established a modern playoff record. The Wings can complete a non-stop title flight by winning at Toronto Thursday night. They won the first game here Sunday night 3-1. In full flight, able to score almost at will against the Leafs, the Red Wings will be heavily favored" to tnd the series Thursday night. They have convinced even the most skeptical that Jack Adams' champions can scarcely be beaten this season. The Red Wings ran in three goals in the first period tonight—and it was all over except the unnecessary scoring. They did the same thing in the first game, bagging three without delay. There was no part ot the Toronto defence able to halt these early charges. The Wings went on to establish a modern scoring record tor playoffs with the help ot the beaten Leafs. No other playoff contest since the N. H. L. expanded in 1926-27 yielded 13 goals. But it wasn't ln building up a big goal total that the Wings demonstrated extraordinary power. It was the wsy they took on the speed- mad Leafs at the start and raped in for the early and Important tallies. Wally Kilrea, Marty Barry and Herbie Lewis sank these early goals that tumbled the fighting Leaf machine. Each time the Wings flicked the puck from stick to stick while skating at top speed. The shooting part was easy. George Hainsworth, veteran Toronto goaler, wu alone and no net man could have blocked the drives from just outside his goal crease. When Toronto came back with a goal at 13:38 in the first period, indicating they would have further to say about the outcome, the Wings slashed back, Bucko McDonald, broad-shouldered idol of the second balconies and hero of Detroit's first victory over the Leafs, broke away after serving a penalty and scored to put Detroit ahead 4-1. That was merely a sign that the Wings could rally after each setback. Out there with a club that has never conceded defeat, the Wings yielded three goals in the last two periods and tbey punched in five on their own account While their own defence wobbled seldom under the barrage from Leaf attackers there was hardly a semblance of defence at the other end to protect Hainsworth. 8UMMARY First period: 1-Detroit, W.

About a month tgo he broke away in a rush during a game and pulled up with what was first thought to be a charley-horse, a leg-muscle strain.

DYNAMITERS GO THROUGH BRISK PACE, WINNIPEG The dear old trade winds are with us, this Ume before we have had any spring zephyrs. There is not a club in the N.H.L. that is not mentioned in some kind of trade and if; one can believe all that ls whispered, there will be some managerial changes as well as player awaps during the summer. Boiton, Toronto, Canadieni, Chicago tnd Rangers are the clubs that will undergo the most changes, tt would seem, and now that Marooni have loat out (and in three itraight) Thomas Gormin miy find that some changes are necessary too. Of course every one of the rumors of player trades cannot be taken to seriously, but the reports are that WiU Cude snd several others, including Joliat and Goldsworthy, will not be with the Canadiens (Can you imagine the Canadiens without Joliat?); that George Hainsworth is playing his last; season with Tor' onto; thit Bal Seibert will traded by Boston' to Canadiens and that Morenz and!

The Flying Frenchmen will have to sacrifice their young netminder to get the new material they must nave before the opening of next season. As a mitter of fact they haven't an abundance ot good trading material. JoUat, Goldsworthy and Buswell, along with Cude make about their only trading material.

MORE ABOUT LEAGUE SESSIOH (Continued From Page Om) The government has as yet not disclosed how persistent Eden will be ln demanding either the cessation of hostUIUes or the imposition of heavier sancUons against Italy at the committee meeting. ECUADOR OPPOSES GENEVA, April 7 (AP)-Reports that breaches may be made in the Lesgue of Nations' sancUoni wall around Italy stirred Geneva tonight on the eve of a session of the committee of 13 to consider negoUations for peace in Africa. The league announced it hu no confirmation of a Rome report that Ecuador would break the ice by dropping sancUons. The Ecuadorean delegate to the league aald he had no official ln- formaUon on Such a step but added: "I have, however, received instruc- Uons to oppose any move to extend the present sanctions against Italy, including an oil sanction." The committee of 13 only has a mandate to try to bring about peace between Italy and Ethiopia and has no authority to discuss sancUons, which belongs to the committee of 18. Italy weeks ago accepted a peace plu from the committee with reservation! and Ethiopia without qualifications. Some members of the committee ot 13 are in favor ot asking Salvador de Madariaga, ita peace negotiator, to go to Home to confer with Premier Mussolini on terms. The situation wu dramatized by an Ethiopian warning today that if the league fails to protect her, all small countries wlU lose faith ln the league and Its widely heralded "collecUve security." FRENCH DEMAND PARIS, April 7 (AP)-France, preliminary to delicate diplomatic negotiations at Geneva, today ordered 175,000 army conscripts whose military service waa due to expire April 15 held in acUve service unUl further orden.

Flandin, with a French plan to "punish" Germany in his pocket, met Eden at the Geneva train and la said to have insisted that sancUons against Italy must be abolished or imposed upon Germany. Officials here, however, expressed belief Eden would seek to increase pressure against Italy. He continued on to Geneva, where the league committee of 13 is to resume consideration of the Italy-Ethiopian war. I Flandin it taking to Geneva a \ plan in the Rhineland crisis which '■. embodies three principal points: A I request to the other Locarno pow- ] en to seek punishment of Germany ' under the league covenant; a re- ' fusal to accept German fortification of the Rhineland; firm rejection of Hitler's counter peace pro- 1 posals, based on bl-lateral pacts.

Inquiry aa to the working of the let in the Pacific coait province slicited tbe following information rom a responsible tource: Tbe Confederation Life issocla- lon, of Toronto, the Mutual Lite luurance company of Waterloo and he Mutual Mortgage corporation ot Toronto are all prepared to conilder applications for loans from ■Vancouver. They are alio considering the advisability of extending NELSON DAILY NEWI. NILION. I.C-WIDNEIDAY MORNING. APRIL I. 1988 their operatloni to Victoria. Representations have been made by the government to these and other companies urging that they accept application! also from Nelton, Trail, Rossland and ilmilir Interior communities where the department is Informed that a demand for housing loam exist.. It is the view of the departmental officers that, is tbe companlei gain experience in thii clan of business tt the coast, they will be willing to extend their operatloni further •field. Efforts have alio betn made by j the department to persuade local j British Columbia companies to cooperate with the government ln' making the act available to resl-. dents of that province. So far, no British Columbia institution has executed the contract with the miniiter ot finince necessary to enable it to make loans under the act The primary objection appears to be unwilllngnen to accept the rate of interest which ii allowed In Housing act loans. The act provides that the rate of interest to be | paid by the borrower ii 5 per cent. Al the government's advance of 30 per cent Is made on a 3 per cent basis, it followi thit the loaning company is tble to make 5.88 per cent on itt 80 per cent ihare. British Columbia loan companiei tppetr, however, to have a policy of requiring 6 to 8V, per cent, tnd it this end it appean that they are reluctant to have thli broken down. The Houiing act U aimed at cheapening the rate of Intereit for prospective home builders, and the government feels that it would be unjust and contrary to the principle of the legislation to accede to higher rates in Brltlih Columbia than prevail ln other provinces.
