DIPLOMATS WAR OVER "HELL-SHIP" SEIZURE
ANGRY NAZIS
Officials, Papers
Brand British as
"Law-Breakers"
Boarding of Prison Ship United Germany'as
No Other War Occurrence Declare Nazis;
Old Slogan "Gott Strafe England" Heard
ly LOUIS P. LOCHNER — Anoclated Pren Staff Writer
BERLIN, Feb! 18 (AP).—Burning with indignation,
German officials today promised to settle scores with Great
Britain over the Altmark incident and said the Royal Navy's
boarding of the prison ship In Norwegian waters had united
Germany as no other occurrence of the war.
The slogan of 1914-18 "Gott strafe England," was
repeated by German sjjokesmen who applied such epithets as
"criminals" and "law-break-?*'
ers" to the British Government
for ordering the destroyer Cos-
tack to seize more than 300
British prisoners from the Alt-
mark In neutral waters.
On« apokeaman said "Only an ln-
lolently dumb Englishman could
have Invented" the theory, advanced In London, that a ship with war
prisoners must be interned ii lt
ventures in the waters of a neutral
nation. "England herself in practice
hu again and again shown she
applies the very opposite principle," he said.
Repeating claims that the Altmark
wu unarmed, he said "the Altmark
eue further shows what may be
expected by neutrals within reach
of British naval forces." .   ,
" "*jCfiviiirtflrals shoW'b* alive to
the tact England hai no respect
whatever for the law of nations or
for Uw comity of peoples when her
Interests are affected, this spokesman said.
As for the German controversy
with Norway over the happening,
authorized sources said this was a
matter for the most careful study
and negotiation.
No official Norwegian reply has
been made to the German protest
charging Norway with inadequate
protection of the Altmark and demanding reparation.
Tht Oslo Government sent an
official communication repeating
the official version of the incident
was released to the Norwegian
press Saturday.
German authorities pointed to
Korway's observation to the effect
that she had to bow to Britain's
superior force.
Oslo dispatches said the Altmark,
grounded during her dramatic conflict with the British destroyer, remained on the rocks and there were
no signs of her getting free.
Authorities said that several
members of the Altmark's crew
were In grave condition. Funeral
servicer for the five killed Friday
night will be held tomorrow at
Gjeasingfjord.
In conjunction with comment on
the Altmark. authorities disclosed
the German Government told Norway Fe-b. 14 that the steamship
Detford, Thomas Walton, and Care-
figlia could not have been sunk by
German submarines In Norwegian
waters as the British charged.
Germany claimed there were no
German submarines ln Norway's
waters when the «l\ips went down
last December.
Dark hints olnvtnga on Britain
were published by the Nail pren.
"The crime in G)e»slngf]ord
presents us with an entirely new
state of affairs ln war policy and
war technique, the effects ot
which cannot now be forseen in
the slightest degree," raged Adolf
Hitler's own newspaper Voelki-
scher Beobachter.
"If old idiots and tiny criminal
minds were not at the helm in
England, then they would know
that National Socialist Greater Ger-
many has the habit of striking back.
"They would know that the tragedy has filled the entire Germaa
people *with a single determination;
We will present an accounting!"
The Lokal Anzeiger described the
Incident as "a declaration of war
on neutrals"
Norway's protest demanding thai
Britain surrender the British seamen-prisoners removed from the
Altmark was read with satisfaction
here.

Norway Fails in
Duty as Neutral
Is British Feeling
Demand Explanations on Why Prisoners on
Altmark Were Not Discovered in Search;
Norway Protests British Violation
GERMANY SENDS PROTEST TO NORWAY
By J.  F. SANDERSON  — Canadian  Pren Staff Writer
LONDON, Feb. 18 (CP Cable).—A three-way diplomatic battle broke loose tonight over the Royal Navy's spectacular rescue of 300 to 400 British seamen who had been
imprisoned for months in the stinking, verminous hold of
the "Hell Ship" Altmark, prison ship and auxiliary for Germany's scuttled pocket battleship, the Admiral Graf Spee.
The British public toasted the exploits of the cutlass-
wielding boarding party from the destroyer Cossack. The men
they brought back home from***
said Britain felt the Norwegian Government "had failed in their duty
as a neutral" in the Altmark case.
Lord Halifax was declared to hava
asked the Norwegian Minister, Erik
Colban:
1. "ln view of the known character of the Altmark." whether she
was searched and if so what waj
found?
2. If Norwegian authorities had
found the British prisoners aboard
what action would they have taken?
3. Precisely why did Norway apj
parently consider the Altmark as
an innocent merchantman when
she had been used as a prison ship
for some time?
4. If it was considered a merchantman, why were Norwegian warships with her?
These questions were asked because the Britsh Government considers the whole Atymark incident
Irregular on Ihe part of Norway.
Lord Halifax asked Colban to
apply to his Government for answers. Meanwhile consideration will
be given to Norway's protest which
Is a strictly legal complaint.
Norwegian waters lingered in
hospital beds or ate their first
meal of weeks in their homes.
Meanwhile diplomatic leaders of three nations went into
action with these results.
1. Britain has demanded explanations from Norway on how it was
possible that the presence of the
prisoners was not discovered in the
Norwegian search of the vessel, and
suggested the Altmark be interned.
2. Norway protested to Britain
igamst violation of 'her territorial
waters.
3. Germany has protested to Norway for allowing the British Navy
to intercept the Altmark.
As books of International Law
were thumbed in three capitals,
the public all over Britain rejoiced that thc Graf Spee prisoners are home safely after a hand-
to-hand fight with guns and cutlasses reminiscent of the days of
Drake and Nelson.

LONDON, Feb. IB (CP.-Cable)
—The Admiralty Saturday nignt
issued a second communique enlarging on details given in a communique earlier in the day which
first told of the daring release of
British prisoners from the 12,000-
ton German ship.
This communique charged the
Altmark was armed with "two
pompoms and four machine-guns"
and disclosed German seamen
opened fire from a hillock on
shore which they reached by
dashing across the ice after clambering over the ship's stern.
The naval account of the'boarding blamed the grounding of the
Altmark largely on her efforts to
break free from the ice of Norway'-s
Gjessingfjord despite British commands, and on an attempt to ram
the British destroyer Cossack as
she pulled alongside.
The Cossack answered by flinging grappling irons aboard the Alt-
mark and boarding her.
"Firing then broke out on both
sides and J. J. F. Smith, gunner in
charge of one of the boarding parties, was severely wounded," tht
communique said.
The British boarding party
climbed up to the bridge and thrust
the Captain of We Altmark from
control nf the ship,
"The British prisoners were found
locked in shell rooms and store
rooms and in an empty oil tank,
"Wile   theie  captivei  were  being   releaied   a   number   of   German armed guards, put on boa'di

they opened fire with rifles.
"The fire was returned by tht
British and two Germans who were
scrambling across the ice to join

"At the same time another German fell in the water amidst tha
broken ire. Two of the Cossack'l officers plunged overboard and saved
him
DISCOVER  ARMS
"It was discovered that the Alt-
mark was armed with two pom
poms fanti-aircraft guns) and four
machine guns.
"One of the officers stated that
she had twice been visited while
in Norwegian waters but had not
been searched. This would explain
the fact that 300 British prisoner!
on board who were clamoring for
release were not noticed."
Britons, jubilant over the spectacular release of the Altmark't
prisoners, pave those of them able
to return to their homes a hero'i
welcome. In Liverpool, where several lived, the seamen were escorted to their bunting-draped
homes by cheering throngs.
A total of 314 of the seamen wert
admitted to two Edinburgh hospitals after landing at Iz-ith and about
half of them were released later.
They wore said to be ln "pretty
fair shape."
Britain's complaint to Norway.
lodged Saturday but only disposed today, added that the British Government felt justified In
"pressing" for the Norwegian internment of thc Altmark.
The official attitude was said to
be that Britain had acted "like a

crime is being committed."

Farm Prices Musi
Go Up-Manion
By CARL REINKE
Canadian Pren Staff Writer
REGINA, Feb. IB (CP)-Prkes
of farm produce must be increased
roughly 40 per cent to bring them
into line with other prices and
provide farmers with a just deal.
Conservative Leader Manion said
here Saturday.
"We must aim to put prices for
the farmers on a parity with
other prices," he said as he outlined the Conservative Party's
agricultural program — and its
wheat policy in particular—in a
broadcast to Saskatchewan.
The Conservative Leader ln an
afternoon address at Moose Jaw,
centre of a district hard hit by
drought during the past decade,
also discussed farm problems and
proposed a parliamentary study c*
crop insurance as a practical way
of protecting the farmer from crop
failure. He attacked the Liberal
Government for failure to protect
the wool producer.
In his broadcast from Regina, Dr.
Manion said one of the first steps
in the practical marketing policy
hit national government would take
would be an effort to arrange a
wheat deal with Britain at a price
fair to both parties.
"During the last war the price
of wheat went to $3 a bushel," he
said. 'For less than half of that
price, an agreement for the duration of the war might have been
made, satisfactory to the farmer
and very profitable In the long
run to Great Britain,"

Urges Revision
of Defence Acl
WINNIPEG, Feb. 18 CP)-Cen-
sorship regulations enforced by ihe
present government practically deprive Canadians of the right to
open their mouths, J. S. Woodj-
worth, Cooperative Commonwealth
Federation Leader, declared here
Saturday.
In his opening address of the
current general election campaign, Mr. Woodsworth urged the
people of Canada to insist the
country be run by parliament
and not by orders-in-council.
Mr. Woodsworth demanded Immediate revision of the Defence of
Canada Regulations, which, he said,
did away with the Magna Charta.
He claimed that Prime Minuter
Mackenzie King had said he was
willing to have their revision considered at the next session ot parliament but asked why the Prime
Minister found it necessary to wait
for a session of Parliament,
The CCF. leader, member of
parliament for Winnipeg North
Centre, said that since the regulations were not enacted oy parliament but proclaimed by the Liberal
Government, that same government
could revise them by proclamation
tomorrow. The government should
revise them before the March 26
election.

Chaos Says Wells
NEW YORK, Feb. 18 (CP). -
World collectivism or chaoa and de
generation are pictured by H. G
Wells—historia, noveltit and por-
trayer ol things to come—aa the
only alternative! facing civilization
after the present war. In tact, the
war is merely "a itupld conflict
upon secondary issuee, which is delaying and preventing an over-due
world adjustment."
Mr. Wells—now 74 yean old-
has his say in "The New World
Order." a book to be released to
morrow by United Statei publish
ers following publication in Great
Britain*.
H. G. has many hard things to
say about the British "ruling classes'
and sees some good—but not much
—in Nazi-ism and Fascism which
i will undoubtedly give headline
. writers a chance to play up the wav
! he lays it on the English. But Wells'
quarrel is not with any nation or
; any class; It is with the whole soci.il
, order. His conclusion Is that "we
; have to collectivize the world as one
system with practically everyone
I playing a reasonably satisfying part
in it." And "we have to devise a
collectivization lhat neither degrades
| nor enslaves." For Wells, "all roads
; lead to socialism or social
l dissolution."

LEGISLATION—MANION
REGrNA, Feb, 18 (CP). - A
vigorous, aggressive Government,
prepared to give National leadership, could obtain the cooperation
of the Provinces to introduce needed social legislation, without waiting to iron ojit all the constitutional obstacles in the British North
America Act, Conservative Leader
Manion said at a meeting here on
Saturday  night.
Continuing his Western campaign
tour, he claimed the present Government had used the B N. A- Act
as a pretext for its failure to institute unemployment insurance and
other social services.
If substantial constitutional
changes wore recommended by the
report of thc Royal Commission on
Dominion-Provincial Relations however, hc would call a round-table
conference of the leaders of all
parties, both Federal and Provincial
"to discuss in a most amicable way
the recommended changes."

Republicans Urge
Cut in Spending
WASHINGTON, Feb. 18 (AP)-
A 20-per cent reduction In spending
by the United States Government
was suggested tonight by the Republican Party Program Committee in outlining a broad let of
principles which may form a bails
for the party's platform In next
November's presidential elections.
Ai to foreign policy, tha report jaid; "We must keep a tight
rein on our emotions and, with
reason ln the driver's sea'., con-
ilder only what will molt surely
protect tha lecurity and welhrc
of the American people and make
us a helpful rather than Hindering factor ln the struggle for
world peace and world prosperity
when the fever of the areaent
conflict subsides. . . .
"There are special reasons, rooted in our domestic lituation, why
we should keep out of the present
war In Europe. But we shall kotp
cut not by neutrality legislation
however thorough-going, but only
as the people wills that we keep

Comely queens of the ski trails are shown here following the ceremony In the Eagle Hell Saturday night when Svea Pearson. Kimberley Ski
Queen crowned "Dee" Desjardins ol Nelson Queen of the Kootenay zone ski tournament. On Miss Desjardins left are Naida Perrier and Edna
Steed, her attendants. Miss Pearson is at her right.
First Kootenay lone akl tournament staged over the weekend it
Nelson in one of the poorest skiing
Winters ln many years in this district, overcame all the obstacles of
rain, mist and heavy anow and became an outstanding success. And
with the tournament the first large
scale ski migration of the district,
similar to the much publicized ski
traina of East, was also a success.
While Nelson Ski Club was host lor
the first zone tournament, Kimberley Ski Club stepped out as the first
club to organize their travelling on
a large scale, for they had a special
coach attached to the Canadian Pacific Railway trains for a party of
35 to 40, many of them juniors, who
won their transportation in a recent
tournament at Kimberley. Trail and
Rossland competitors and spectators
travelled by car and bus.
KIMBERLEY'S DAY
It was Kimberley's tournament,
for when the trophies were awarded
at the banquet closing the two-day
ski festival, the East Kootenay club
carried off 13 out of 24 trophies and
prizes, including six of eight first
places. Nelson skiers won six trophies and prizes, Rossland four and
Trail one.
But Klmberley'i triumph was even
more imposing than the statistics
revealed, for club entrants won
three out of five major events and
in the Junior events took all the
firsts, all the seconds and two of
the thirds.
To complete the story Kimberley
skiers were the sufferers in the only
two accidents of the tournament.
Ray Woodman, a Junior, suffered a
sprained ankle when he essayed a
jump Sunday afternoon; and Miss
Helen Meyers broke three bones in
her right hand in a fall on the slalom course. Miss Meyers after her
fall was sliding rapidly toward a
large tree when Jack Buchanan of
Spokane, formerly of Nelson, flung
himself in her path and stopped her.
Race and slalom events were held
at the Nelson Ski Club course at
the Nelson Golf and Country Club
Saturday afternoon and Sunday
morning; while Jumping was staged
at a new hill about two miles from
Nelson along the Ymir road. Heavy,
wet snow handicapped skiers In all
events, but it had no effect on Hie
keen competition between the
competitors.
QUEEN 18 CROWNED
A monster dance at the Eagle
Hall Saturday night was featured
by the crowning of Miss "Dee" Desjardins of Nelson as Tournament Ski
Queen, with Miss Svea Pearson,
Kimberley Ski Club Queen, officiating. At the banquet at the Cathedral Hall which terminated the
tournament Queen "Dee" presented
trophies to winners.
For spectators the feature of the
tournament was the Jumping, and
they thrilled to this spectacular sport
as A and B Class Jumpers soared
in succession from the takeoff and
down the face of the steep hill.
There were many spills.
Longest jump of the day was 132
feet, this being made by All Johansson of Kimberley. after he had
jumped 142 and 139 feet In competition. Best jumps in B Class were
by Bill Anderson of Nelson and
Bjorne Edwards of Kimberley, each
128 feet.
The hill was declared too dangerous for C Class Jumpers, and
their event was cancelled, but three
of them tried the Jump. The (irst
was Ray Woodman of Kimberley,
whose jump was short, causing him
to spill badly, and injure himself.
The others were Frank Kennedy and
Johnny Clark of Nelson, who made
neat jumps of about 100 feet.

Styling . . . •
Shape the Hair to
Contour ol Head
By DONNA GRACE
Woman's crowning glory can be a
thing of beauty, and a luxuriant
growth of hair will always be one
of the most desirable beauty attributes. Poets are inspired by golden
or raven tres-ses, and haid stylists
revel in the sheer joy of fashioning
such hair.
While we may admire a full,
heavy growth, we must known Just
when it reaches the too-much stage.
Hair, to be smart, must outline the
natural contour of the head; when
this symmetry is lost it means thinning, and shaping is then in order.
During recent years some stylists
were a bit too eager to cut away
everything but barely enough to do
the "up" styling. These smart styles
were flattering to some, but we believe the majority, especially the
younger set, looked more attrative
with natural growth.
There will be scientific shaping
and some thinning done for the
coming season but no extremely
short haircuts. Mature women and
all those with gray hair are inclined to wear the back hair very
short. With a few exceptions, it is
better for them to have the hair
up ott the neck, but this thinning
and cutting must be done by an expert.
There should be no suggestion of
shingling and when the hair is cutl
away it must be done so a soft,
graceful wave is possible. All coarse
hair presents a problem for any
but the expert stylist. He knows
just how to do this smart shaping so
the ends may be trained to fit close
to the back and never show a tendency to bristle out in straight,
coarse ends. Razors or sharp scissors are employed to shape deftly
underneath, leaving enough to make
a smooth wave at the hairline.
Hair shaped in this manner can
be arranged at home between visit*
to the salon. But when the shaping
is not correct it will be impossible
to keep the neckline smart after the
wave is combed out.
When the head size Is Inclined to
be large, the long bob should not be
curled high. It -should be either
worn straight or in flat, tractable
waves, with all the fulness quite
low.
The beauty of the long bob will
depend on the quality of the hair.
Even though the line and styling are
correct, so much of the hair is in
evidence, it will always have to be
gleaming and well brushed.
When  hair is brushed  regularly.

Dates. .>.
Does Modern Girl
Need Encouraging
By CAROLINE CHATFIELD
My helpful correspondent who
wished me to write some words of
encouragement to young gals who
are afraid of matrimony should
have a look at thc letters that come
to this department from the anxious
young things who can't catch dates,
or can't hold the interest of first
dates, or can't get their regular
dates up to the point of proposing.
The young gals I see and henr
about have little else on thcil
minds than the lookout for dates—
which is the first beginning of the
search for mates. And the oldte*
ones and those who can no longer
qualify as young gals are just *r
avid for the sound and sight i|'
the prince on the charger.
'Every one of these young gfals
starts out with the idea of dating
some big, bright football star with
a letter on his sweater and a
swagger commensurate with his,
stardom. They soon compromise and
accept a date with anything that
wears pants, so long as they ire
long pants.
The oldei gal who has marriage
on her mind dreams of a mate why
I* healthy, wealthy, wise, to the
manor born and covered all over
with college degrees. But it doesn't
take her long to swap that dream
for a flesh and blood boy friend
who quit high school to go to wepk,
a boy friend who has just enough
education to get by and less money.
While it may be true that the
carefree young things dread the
expense and care of a family and
deplore the domestic tragedies
around them that are building up
for divorce, not one in a million
hongs back from matrimony because of fear, or because somebody else has failed. Asking me, I
say that the average gal puts out
her antennae at an early teen age,
picks un whatever she can in the
way of a dafe and later accents
what's offered in the way of a
marriage prospect — accepts it and
says grace over it for a little while
at least.
It's not my impression that thc
modern gal needs encouragement
to go out and seek a mate, nor
that she needs any lectures on the
subject of marriage — best career
for a woman. Just let her catch a
glimpse of a date and she's after it—
if you know what I mean.
Leap Year Is Headache to Cupid
as Well as Financial Interests
Thirty days hath September,
April, June and November,
All the rest have thirty-one
Except February alone, which
Hath but twenty-eight, in fine,
Till Leap Year gives it twenty-
nine.
It was Julius Caesar who thought
up a calendar so cock-eyed that
millions of folks today must memorize such ditties to figure when
they'll get their next pay check.
Caesar made February an undersized Dopey that is always getting
out of step, and 1940 Is one of the
years in which it is out of step.
Some people will get an added day
of pay this month, but others—those
who are paid by the month— will
work an extra day without pay.
(February would jump Into the
30-day clars if lhe revised calendar
proposed by the World Calendar
Association were adopted. The necessary extra day in Leap Year is
fitted in after June 30 in the Association's Calendar, and is called
Leap Year—a universal holiday.
Hut February, as the second month
in a quarter, would have 30 days,
along with all other months except
January, April, July and October,
which are allotted 31,)
As it is now, on the putting-out
side, a corporation on a weekly basis with a $10,000,000 annual payroll may have to set aside the extra $4(1,000 for Feb. 29.
Perhaps folks should be glad to
put un with February, even marvel
that the calendar is as orderly a« it
is. Before Julius, time-keeping was
pretty haphazard.
NOT ALWAYS THU8
Caesar's astronomer, in 46 B. C,
found the solar year was 365Va days
long. So Caesar decreed that everv
fourth year be 366 days long and
the rest 365. He wanted a year with
By The Associated Pren
12 months—Including one July, is
named for himself—but the number
12 didn't divide evenly Into 365.
So he staggered the months.
He gave the odd monthi (January, March, July, September, and
November) 31 days each, and the
even montha 30. But that totalled
3*86—one too many. It was then that
February got the axe. He gave It
29 days for normal years, 30 days
in Leap Year.
That calendar went along nicely
until Julius' nephew, Augustus,
came along and wanted to name a
month for himself. He decided that
his month, August, should have as
many days as Julius'. So he borrowed that day from February,
leaving it 28 In normal years, so he
could hike August up to 31 days.
Then to prevent three 31-day
months from falling In a row, he
changed September and November
to 30-day months, October and December to 31 days,
WELL, NOT EXACTLY
Thus the calendar stands today—
except that Leap Year does not actually fall every four years. In the
16th century the more precise astronomers of Pope Gregory XIII
found that the earth made its normal journey around the sun 11
minutes and 14 seconds faster than
3651/4 days.
This meant that the universal
1 clock was losing three days in
every 400 years. Gregory promptly
dropped 10 days from the calendar
(between Oct. 5 and Oct. 15) to
make up for lost time.
To prevent future losses he reduced the number of Leap Years
following in a 400-year-period from
100 to 97, by making the last Leap
Year o.' each century a common
year—except where the number of
the century is divisible by four.
Thus 1800 A. D. and 1900 were not
Leap Years, but 2000 will be.

"chemically produced that," and
proved that everything you do is

Willa McClement came next, and
really hit upon a gruesome topic
for discussion in that of "Rattlesnake Meat and Whipped Cream."
This dainty little dish is one produced by a firm in the United
States, lt seems that the occupation of hunting and marketing rattlesnakes is a very profitable one,
if not as common as most. Willa described the hunting of these appetizing little dishes, the disposal ol
all the various products oi snake-
vivisection, and ended up with the
recipe for one of the most enjoyable
ways to serve such tasty morsels.
The final speaker of the afternoon was Allan Emmott, speaking
on the "Democracizing of Democracy." His speech was slightly rem-
niscent of a political campaign, but
the main theme was that the students of today are potentially the

PRIME MINISTER KING CONTRIBUTES
TOWARD "UNITY"
One of Prime Minister King's contributions to the
"National Unity" he says is the issue in the election he has
forced, is to seek to evoke in sections that might be apprehensive, the fear of conscription under Dr. Manion's
"National Government," and the fear of disfranchisement
of alien nationalities. Giving lip service to the idea of unity,
he is promoting division by appeals to those least interested in a maximum effort in the war.
On this move of Prime Minister King, the Ottawa
Journal makes the following clarifying comment:
One particular passage in Prime Minister King's election "keynote" speech of Wednesday night should be noted
by all who would understand what thought governs Mr.
King's war policy—plus what thought governs his strategy
in this war election.
Here is the passage:
"Least of all was it (national unity) brought about by
pledges to ... . form a so-called 'national' government
that might enforce conscription or disfranchise many
classes of Canadian citizens. The memories of those experiences in the last war are still bitter in the minds of the
Canadian people."
To whom—to what groups—is Mr. King here appealing? When he trots out the bogey of conscription, and when
he goes back 23 years to dig up the old War Time Elections
Act, what has he in mind? Has he in mind national unity—
or has he in mind (1) the votes of certain people in Quebec,
and (2) the votes of the foreign-born populations of Alberta and Saskatchewan?
The answer seems clear.
Here is the Prime Minister of Canada submitting his
war record to the country, asking the country to examine
it, to say whether it wishes to continue him in office. Here
is the Prime Minister of Canada supposedly (and professedly) appealing for national unity—yet misusing his
opportunity by a none too subtle appeal to racial prejudices.
No one in Canada is talking about conscription; it is
not an issue. No one in Canada is talking about disfranchising anybody; it is not an issue. Yet Mr. King, directing
his talk straight at Quebec, intimates his opponents might
"enforce conscription"; and then, directing his talk this
time straight at Saskatchewan, raises the spectre of disfranchisement—disfranchisement of "many classes of Canadian citizens." "The memories of those experiences in
the last war," he declares, "are still bitter in the minds of
the Canadian people." Which we should say is appalling
nonsense,
If Mr. King's speech really sounded the "keynote" of
his party's position in this election—and Mr. Rogers' statement at Kingston suggests that it did—then something is
raised that goes far deeper than the mere war record of
the Government. Raised is the issue whether the Government wants to wage war as most Canadians would have
war waged, or whether it is to be waged with an eye on the
prejudices and fears of certain minorities—minorities that
have votes.

Fishermen's Wharf
to Attract Tourists
Is the Limit-R.B.W.
To the Editor of the
Nelson Daily News:
Sir: The province very seiuibly
criticizes a certain alderman {or
wanting to build the Fishermen's
Wharf at Vancouver as an attraction
for tourists and says the proper reason for building lt ls for the use of
fishermen.
What a great thing lt would be If
that paper and all papers and people would constantly take that
view in the matter of tourist attractions. For us that paper says
further tourists do not go to another country to see attractions prepared for them, but to see something
different to what they see at home.
I- it not more sensible to build
wharves and roads and other public
works needed by our own people
than to build them to suit foreign
ers. People don't go to another country to feel at home.
It seems decidedly cheap and undignified for each country to do all
it can to attract visitors ot make
money out of them. And the advertising of it must to a great extent
defeat its own purpose and put
visitors on guard against spending
their money.
People talk as If money spent by
tourist*; was a free gift. Yet the
same people would tell visitors they
had received value for their money.
After all the chief Item on which
they spend money is gasoline which
is Imported from the United States.
By all means welcome tourists
in the spirit of friendliness and have
information they need available.
But they will be more, interested
in what we are doing for ourselves
than in what we do for them to get
their money.
A fishermen's wharf to catch tourists is the limit.

SYNOPSIS
The characters:
Romany Haile, who wants to be
a radio star.
Cholly O'Neil, her pal, who plays
in a music store.
Brent Nelson, successful young
announcer.
Myra Noyes, famous radio star,
engaged to Brent.
Terry O'Rourke, who has a weakness for Cholly and for liquor.
Baxter Tree, a continuity writer
without a Job,
Yesterday: Myra berates Brent
for the attention he has been showing Romany.
CHAPTER EIGHT
ROMANY waited impatiently
while Brent went down to the program board room to find out if nil
judgment of her audition had been
vindicated. He came back beaming.
'They're so charmed with your
dulcet tones, they want me to bring
you down to see if you lcok as good
as you sound," he told Romany,
grinning  expansively.
Nine men rose as one when Romany entered the board room. She
was first presented to the president of Interstate. Tyrone Moore,
then to the head of the artists bureau, Marvin Yanning.
Distributing charming smiles as
impartially as possible, Romany,
Nelson observed with pride,, was
poised as a veteran in the face of
the compliments heaped upon her.
If she hadn't possessed one whit of
talent. Brent knew, her looks alone
would have sufficiently impressed
the board that they would have
passed her for a trial at Interstate.
Loring Hickox was most lavish in
his compliments.
"You must come In and see me
as soon as possible. Miss Haile," he
told her heartily. "I'm sure we can
do a lot for you, You're a natural
for television."
"on't pay any attention to him."
Brent grinned, "He's just lookins
for his ten per cent. He talks that
way to all thc girls."
After a few moments the crowd
broke up, and Romany leaned
against the fire place to catch her
breath.
"Whew!" She fanned her flushed
face with her hand. "This is so sudden! I hope it really means something."
"We'll see." Brent smiled. "And
now how about coming downstairs
for a cocktail? I've just an hour
before I go on the air,"
"And I've just an hour before I
have a dinner date.'" Romany told
him."
"I thought you were going to
dinner with me!" Brent looked disappointed,
"I didn't say so." Romany smiled.
"But ask me again sometime. I'm
meeting Baxter Tree at 5:30."
"He's not the steady, by any
chance," Nelson inquired. "Or isn't
it any of my business?"
"No," Romany shook her head.
"Just one of the boys I knew at Indiana U. Bax is grand! He wrote
the material I used for my audition, and coached me for hours today. I'm afraid I'd have been sunk
with-.ut him."
'That was darn good stuff,"
Brent said generously. "The guy
knows his radio But I particularly
like his taste in women.
Romany felt it was a good opportunity to mention Myra Noyrs.
So she said as they stepped off i'.ie
elevator in the lobby:
"I understand you're engaged to
Myra  Noyes"
Brent hesitated, and she saw his
fare flush.
"Or." she added quickly, "isn't It
any of my business*"
"Turn about i.s fair play." Brent
said uncomfortably. "You're entitled to an answer nf course. Lets
wait until we get a scat in the cocktail   lounge."
When they had both ordered a
dry Martini, Brent leaned his elbows on the table.
"Now. I suppose I'll have to answer that qestion of yours"
"Not if it is embarrassing to you.
We'll Just forget it."
, "It—wouldn't be embarrassing if
I didn't feel myself faTling so hard
for you I don't like lo think cf an /■
thing else." Brent took a sip of ice
water
"Now. now," Romany chided
! "We won't go Into thai.'
Brent sighed
"All right, wr wont Not »o soon
anyway Yes, I am engaged tn
Myra Noyes. I have been for four
months. It's — Just one of those
things a man gets into when he
comes to the place where he feels
It's time to marry."
Brent stopped. Romany could
think of nothing appropriate to
say Then he rontinued:
"I've never felt I'd ever fall really in love Not the kind of love my
father had for mv mother Mavbe
I was mistaken. Myra Is clever, attractive I thought she was a good
[ sport who would more or less go
her own way and let me do the
same. And so-well, there vou have
IL"
Romany shook  her head
"It dopant make sense to me
Bul I don'l pretend lo understand
I vou men If you don't mind. I'm go-
, ing lo tell you 1 think it's unfair
of a man 1*1 become engaged lo a
[ pill when he doesn't really love her
Women are loo easily hurt"
"Are they* ' Brent smiled rrooK-
|erllv l'n afraid you roiilrin'i (|iiil-
pul Myra In Ihe alars of gills who
go In for the sentimental stuff mar-
riage was associated with back in
grandma's day."
"How do you know?" Romany
challenged him. "Maybe she's Jusl
being the sort of girl she thinks
you want her to be."
"God forbid," Brent said fervently, raising the cocktail the
waiter had just placed in front o!
him. "She isn't being the sort of
girl I want her to be."
"Maybe," Romany defended her
sex, "you're not measuring up to
her standards, either. Did you ever
think of that?"
"Say!" Brent finished his cocktail
in a gulp. "Are you lecturing me?"
Romany smiled, but her eyes
were serious.
"No, Brent, I'm not even advising you. Because I don't know
enough about those things. I've
never been married and I've never
been in love. But 1 just know
women are not always what they
seem on the surface.'
"Are you?" Ho leaned toward
her, his eyes warm with admiration. "Because if you are, Heaven
help my poor old heart!"
"You're being very silly." Romany sipped her cocktail, "And if
you don't stop, I won't come up to
Interstate and make you famous for
discovering me. I'll sign up with
I^ollyood."
"Just a minute before you throw
me too far off the track with your
clever feminine trick of evasion,
by dear. Are you so disappointed
in me that you won't see me any
more? I want to know where I
stand."
Romany was taken aback. She
hesitated, coloring slightly. Then
she said frankly:
"I shouldn't see you. But I probably will. Since you are really responsible fnr all that has happened
to me in radio in the last couple
of days. You'll have to Just consider me a good friend and not--
try to make love to me."
"Oh,   darling."   Brent   said  very
low, "look at yourself in the mirror
j beside you ond you'll see how impossible that would be."
"You heard what I said." Romany was firm. "Don't you think this
is a beautiful room'' Who did the
paintings on the ceiling?"
"That reminds me." Nelson
dropped the matter for thc time being. "You'll have to join the Ameri-
! ran Federation of Radio Artists.
You can't open your mouth to say
•boo' on the air without Joining
Alra."
"What do I have to do?" Romany
hesitated, her heart sinking with
fear that it would cost more money
than she had.
Brent looked at his watch.
"Finish your cocktail and we'll
run there now. It's on the second
floor. We've just time before closing. If you haven't the cash, they'll
take a check. Tf you haven't your
check book. I'll take care of it fo:
you."
"No, thanks." Romany shook her
head quickly. "I probably have
enough with me."
When she had paid .her Afra dues.
Romany was down to five dollars she had upon arriving in Chicago. If it hadn't been for Haller's
Desserts, she would have been frantic trying to raise the money, Sh?
said a little prayer that the wheels
at Interstate would begin turning
verv suddenly in her favor.
At dinner, in a modest little table
d'hote restaurant nn Randolph
Street. Baxter Tree took a tabloid
from his pocket and handed it to
Romany, smiling.
"Look at Tanner Yeoman's radio
column." He pointed to a small circled paragraph.
Romany gasped. In bold black
type she' read, with a mixture of
emotions:
"Seen at landau's dining last
evening: Brent Nelson, announcer,
with a stunning brunette. Inquiry
revealed she is Romany Haile, heiress to H.irlowc farm implements
millions. Niece of wealthy 'Cissie'
Harlowe, widow of the implement
king In Chi to enter upon a radio
career. Swell bet for television "
Romany exnloded: "How did that
get in there*"
Bax chuckled.
'That's what you get for stepping out with famous announcers
in Aunt Cissir's furs! But don'l let
it worry ynu That kind of publicity
won't do you any harm. If thev
thing you're an heiress, they'll fall

that he had a hand practically as

South might have prevented

Canadian Fliers
Know the North
By FRANK  FLAHERTY
Canadian Prett Staff Writer
OTTAWA, (CP). — Trom Port
Burwell to Nottingham Island the
chilly waters and rocky shores of
Hudson Strait are known to aome
of the key men ln the Royal Canadian Air Force. Wing Commander
Thomas' A. Lawrence and the officers who served under him on the
Hudson Strait expedition of 1927
know flying and navigating conditions there from personal experience.
Hudson Strait ts the Northern
wster approach to the heart of central Canada, the entrance to Hudson
Bay. In the unlikely event that hostile ships should seek to enter it in
the few months of the year when
it is free from Ice the experience
and information gained in 14 months
exploration flying there 12 years
ago would be of real assistance to
Canada's defence forces.
Armed with a sound knowledge of
this and other coastal areas of Canada Wing Commander Lawrence is
now director of Plans and Operations for the Royal Canadian Air
Force. That means his duties include
the planning and supervision of
Canada's home defence against air
attack as well as air operations in
Canada apart from training.
The Hudson Strait expedition la
Ihe highlight of Lawrence's 22-year
career in the Air Force. Its purpose
was to study ice. weather and gen'
eral navigating conditions prior to
the opening of the Hudson Bay
route to traffic, following completion of the Hudson Bay Railway to
Churchill.
Through lhe strait each Summer
now pass the freighters which
carry western wheat from Churchill to the markets of Europe. On
the Information gathered during
the 1927 survey, mainly from thc
air, were based Instructions to ships
using the route. The relative safety
of shipping in the strait ls due in
part to the application of the data
gathered by the expedition.

Finds Generals
Artists Dodgers
OTTAWA. Feb. 18 (CP)- Take
it from Miss EM.B. Warren, an expert at trailing general.*; from here
io there, army officials are no.ie
too keen on posing for portraits.
Twenty years after she painted
pictures of Canada's 1914-18 war
eff rt Miss Warren has come bark
to Ottawa from England to retouch the canvases she gave to the
Federal Government.
She told how difficult lt was in
those days of thc First Great War
to catch up with a general and ot
days she spent in Westminster Abbey copying the stained glass pane
banked with Canada's colors. She
managed to group several Canadian
officers in the foreground but few
seemed to have time for posing.
"I certainly did a lot of running
arrund nfter generals in those days
sh-r said   "They  were  the  hardest
of the < ffiecrs to find and I simply
had to have them in my painting.'
If I  couldn't find  them   in ramps,'
I stalkrd them In London hotels dp-1
til I got them to let me sketch their
features,"
She made her first trip to Canada Just after the last war to find;
the missing faces that would m,ikc
1 her paintings an accurate pictorial
record low, with the passage of I
, time, they need refurbishing.
Since that trip, this small, relir-
I ing Englishwoman has crossed lh»
! sea .18 times. When her canvases'
1 nre finished here, sometime this
Spring, she said she planned to re- '
turn tn England to [oin her three
older sisttrs who are all artists, in
whatever war wnrk ls needed
Miss Warren's two piintings first
hung in Sir Robert U rden's nf-,
fire. Then they hung fcr a time in j
the parliamentary reading room, j
Later they went to McGill Univer- ■
sity ard for the past while thev '

Ulcers . . .
The Good Earth as
Used in Medicine
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M.D.
"The earth with the seal"—terra
sigillata—it was called in the old
days, because it was thought to be
so valuable that its genuineness
was guaranteed.
Kaolin we call it now. It is a common constituent of many soils and is
classified as a silicious earth. It is
found in many rich deposits in the
U. S. and rhe Orient. It is used in
pottery but has been a part of the
physician's armory for many centuries. It has a soothing and healing action on the intestines and has
been used for many different kinds
of intestinal complaints, from Asiatic cholera to our own colitis.
I Its action is twofold on the inflamed intestine. It mechanically
takes up large numbers of bacteria
and carries them off, dead or alive;
second, it takes up poisons by absorption.
SIMILAR PRODUCT
It is beat given with a similar
product, aluminum hydroxide, because kaolin alone may settle out of
suspension and form a hard, claylike mass. Aluminum hydroxide
has greater colloidal activity than
kaolin and settles out of suspension
less readily. Thc two together form
a light viscid jell.
This jell can be used in a great
many disease conditions. On account of iU soothing properties it
is used to paint the throat in tonsillitis and diphtheria. When the
earthy mass comes away, great
quantities of bacteria come with it.
It has a reversible chemical reaction and can act as a we-ak acid or
a weak base. This, along with its
'astringent action, accounts fnr Its
i favorable action in cases of ulcer of
'the stomach.
I USEFUL IN COLITI8
! In colitis, and particularly colitis
! where ulceration has occurred, it
j finds its greatest field of usefulness,
; It reduces pain and colic and, by
! carrying off germs and poisons, aidi
1 in building up the general health.
j One patient gained 40 pounds of
| weight within six weeks after the
■ treatment was started. Mucous for*
, matinn  is greatly  reduced.
Other treatment is carried out at
the .-same time with these adminis-
[trations.   In   ordiiu.y   colitis   it   is
not so necessary, but in the ulcerative type bed  rent Ls  enforced.  A
bland but highly-nutritious diet,
'consisting of pureed vegetables nnd
ground meat, eggs and cream, mast
; be eaten for some time. Sedatives
1 are often necessary.
Attaching Wings

Thc great creative geniuaej

Nelson Bantams
Beat Trail 5-1
A well-built young fellow who
carried a big No. 15 on hii broad
back, Gordon McDonald, teaming
up in a nifty combination with Len
Appel, accounted for four goals aa
the Nelson Bantam Repe ran up a
5-1 victory over the I. O. O. F. team,
leaders of the Trail Bantam League,
at the Civic Arena Saturday night
in an exhibition curtain-raiser to
the Nelson-Trail juvenile playoff.
The home club's triumph was an
impressive one for they dominated
the play almost continuously over
their much lighter opposition. McDonald scored three of his goals on
assists from Appel, while thc other
was a rather brilliant individual effort when he split the Trail defence
and cut loose a hard high drive that
sailed past Spain into the Trail net
The game provided plenty of opportunity for Freddy Romano, Coach
of the Nelson Club, to employ tactics
along the lines of Lester Patrick's
New York Rangers in killing off
penalties. Nelson drew all but one
of the eight minor penalties, but
used them to its own advantage, immediately sending every man up to
hem the opposition inside their own
blue line. In the third period while
Lang was off. McDonald scored two
of his goals in quick order while his
team was ganging the other end although shorthanded. In City League
filay, Romano directs the league-
eading Panther-Westerners.
Outstanding performers for the
visitors was the line of the Koehle
brothers, Ron and Fred, and Kurk
Broman, the latter scoring Trail's
lone goal on a pass from his co-winger Fred. The little fellows played
fine games from start to finish, and
the fans really aprpeciated them.
Ron Koehle, a redhead made a
great scoring try on a penalty shot
which he was given when Jackie
Prestley, who scored the other Nelson goal, fouled him when he was
going in the clear in the Nelson
rone. Ron missed the corner by a
narrow margin on a good shot.

Fenske Wins Mile
NEW YORK. Feb. 18 (CP) -
Chuck Fenske ran his winning
streak to five straight Saturday
night In capturing the 27th running of the New York Athletic
Club's Baxter mile in the fast time
of four minutes 7.4 seconds before a
crowd of 15.000 at Madison Square
Garden.
Larry O'Connor. University of
Toronto hurdle star, was beaten
in the final of 60-yard hurdles by
Allan Tolmich of Detroit who

Tolmich cut l-10th of a second off
his own mark set in this meet In
1936 and equalled in last year's
games  by O'Connor.
In the mile, Fenske put on a
killing sprint for the last three-
quarters of a lap. The former University of Wisconsin star caught
Lou Zamperini in 40 yards of
straightaway and won- by three
yards.
Glenn Cunningham could do no
better than fourth aa Fenske shaded him for third place.
Kamloops Skiers

KAMLOOPS, B.C., Feb. 18 (CP)
—The mildest Winter in memory
has caused directors of Kamloops

December's mean average temperature was 10 degrees higher than
the 42-year average.
Whether the tournament will be

KIMBERLEY, B. C„ Feb. IS -
Kimberley Dynamiters built' up a
5-0 lead over the Invading Nelaon
Maple Leafs in a West Kootenay
Hockey League game here Saturday
night and then staved off a iteady
offemlve barrage thrown up by
the visitors in the lait period to
take a apeedy 7-B victory that
kept their home Ice record against
the second-place Leafs unbeaten.
The Leafi play here again Monday
In the fourth meeting at Kimberley
of the teams.
The Dynamiten completely dominated the play almost through the
entirety of the firit two periods,
making Jesse Seaby ln the Nelson
nets an exceptionally busy young
man in blocking T.N-T. rubber. He
was nothing snort of sensational
during those 40 minutes, despite
the fact that five goals went up on
the scoreboard before his team got
ita first The first period ended 2-0,
and the second 5-1, and the Dynamiters had the Leafs penned up
in their own zone nearly all that
lime.
Led by B\iddy Hammond, the
Leafs took over the play ln the last
period as they ln turn displayed
plenty of power that threatened to
bring them up on an even basis
with the Dynamiters. But the homesters took advantage of breaks that
came their way to notch two more
goals to make the victory sure.
Hammond scored three of his team's
total and he played a bang-up game
all night.
Jack Corbett, Kimberley defence
man, and Johnny smith, the bad
man of the league, mixed it briefly
ln the third period to add some
more excitement to the game, Corbett drawing five minutes for being
the aggressor of the fracas. Smith
got a minor stretch of two minutes.
Leafs played without the services of their playing coach, Len
Bicknell, who Is Buffering a charley

Invasion of Holland or Belgium
Is Greatest Problem Facing Allies
B,   SAM   ROBERTSON
Canadian  Pren Staff Writer
LONDON, Feb. 18 (CP)- Thai
poHlbllltly of Garmany violating
the neutrality of Holland, Belgium
or both In an effort to strike a telling blow at Great Britain and to
France is one of the major problems
facing the Allied command.
Such an Invasion could have disadvantages as weighty aa any advantages to be gained. For Instance,
if the Nazis managed to overrun
Belgium they would be in • position to turn the main Maginot defence and strike at the portion of
the French Frontier least strongly
fortified. But such a move would
add more than 1,000,000 men- the
fighting forces of the Low Coun-
trles-to the Allies' strength and
extend the front of operations.
A Nazi attack on the neighborly
neutrals probably would cause the
Allies to go to their rescue and
this would draw a portion of the
British and French forces out of
their defensive positions. But to
the distinct disadvantage of Germany, it would throw open a direct air route from the British Isles
to Important industrial centre! of
Northwest Germany.
These areas are approachable by
British bombers only by a Jong and
circuitous route.
Perhaps the most Important gain
the Nazis could achieve by violating the Low Countries is that It
would provide advanced bases tor
air attacks on Britain and sea bases
for submarines operating In "Ihe
North Sea and the channel.
However, if the Nazis were unable to thrust through to the seaboard then the advantage likely
would be with the Allies. The Nazis
then would be more vulnerable to
sea and air attacks launched from
Britain.
When the Germany of Kaiser
WUhelm moved in 1914 Belgium
was taken completely by surprise.
The Belgian army was untrained
and defences were badly out of
date. That ls definitely not the case
today. Too, Belgium stood alone at
the outbreak of the First Great
War. Today her fortunes are linked with Holland—and at their back,
at the "stand ready", are the mobilized Allied foroffe of the British
I Empire and France!

"We are now realizing the importance of truths that have become platitudes and there may be
a   new   birth  -of democracy."
After the service the congregation passed through the churchyard.

and back to Hall Street before disbanding at the Eagle Hall. The

Wall SI. Slocks
in General Rally
NEW YORK, Feb. "18 (AP) .-Securities traders watched Increase
battle hostilities abroad Saturday
with a run-up of stock prices.
Gains of major tractions to two
points appeared all over the big .
board ln one of the most active
Saturdays of the year. The short
session's transactions moved at a
rote of about 400,000 shares.
Although steels led the climb, it
was not essentially a "war baby"
market, for shares of such pacificists concerns as a shirt maker, a
subway and a candy manufacturer
hit their highest quotations in more
than a year.
The analysts who worried a few
weeks ago when stock prices failed
to rally in step with increased industrial activity were hard pressed
to explain the sudden upturn In
the face of reports of now-decreased
manufacturing rates.
Most widely accepted theory was
that the recently low level of quotations had been thoroughly tested
by traders and proved a stable foundation upon which to calculate the
effects of possible increases in trade
resulting from wider European demands.
The 1939-40 record setters Included Cluett Peabody, Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit preferred, Loft and
Cleveland Graphite Bronze.
Most Interesting of all was the
gain ln B-M-T which in the last
week, has Jumped more than 13
points on indications that New York
City ls virtually assured of unifying
its great transportation system after
21 years of negotiations.
Among the session's best advances
were U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Republic, Youngstown, Westinghouse,
International Nickel, Continental
Can, Hall Printing Co., Du Pont
U. S. Rubber, Johns-Manville and
Western Union.

regularly means that a lot of people buv it
regularly The fact that a storekeeper cr
manufacturer wil join his name w th it
in public proves that hc thinks it is good,
honest value.
Time was when the slogan. "Let the buyer
beware." governed buying and selling Put

! "Soul" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in the First Church of
! Christ, Scientist, Sundiy.
The Golden Text was: "I will set
My tabernacle among you: and My
soul shall not abhor you. And I will
walk among you, and will be your
God. and ye shall be My people"
(Leviticus 26: 11, 12).
! Among the citations which com-
, prised the Lesson-Sermon was the
! following from the Bible: "For the
Lord God is a sun and- shield: the
Lord will give grace and glory: no
good thing will He withhold from
them that walk uprightly" (Psalms
64:111.
The Lesson-Sermon also Included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Science
and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Day
may decline and shadows fall, but
darkness flees when the earth has
again turned upon Its axis. The sun
La not affected by the revolution
of the earth. So Science reveals Soul
as God. untouched by sin and death
—as the central Life and Intelligence
around which circle harmoniously
all things in the systems of Mind."
