JUDGE DISAGREES He addressed the jury: "Gentlemen, this verdict was not In accord with what I think you should have returned. That, however, is up to you."

ATTEMPTS TO SPEAK TO JURY Before the jury was discharged, and just after Noonan, chief defence counsel, personally thanked the jury, Montague rose with a smile on his face and said; "Gentlemen of the jury." Judge Owen banged his gavel and announced "This Is no show." Then the crowd stormed noisily out of the courtroom and waited at a side entrance for Montague's exit.

Alderman Cooper reported 33 man days on water works, part of which was spent on lowering the line in the B.A.C. grounds. A test of the fire truck since installation of new gears showed increased power in climbing the hills, but a slight loss of speed on the level. Alderman Cunningham, chairman of the fire, water and light committee reported receipts for the first nine months of 1937 to be $89,476 as against $86,551 in the same period in 1936. Expenditures for 1937 were $77,658, as against $72,721 in 1936. With the number of new houses being constructed this year, Alderman Cunningham looks to see next year's revenue jump by at least $5000.

Salicylic acid, sulphur, thymol and iodine are the most beneficial drugs. X-ray treatment probably is more valuable than any of them as a routine. Even so, the condition may be very chronic and recurrent. The standard medicament is Whitfield's ointment, the active ingredient of which is salicylic acid with benzoic acid in an ointment base. Application of this ointmenf will relieve the majority of acute cases. When secondary pus infection has occured, this must, be taken care of by antiseptic lotions, hot applications and soothing applications before an attempt to kill tlie fungus is made. A weak solution Intemperate, and Can't Forget Him By VIRGINIA LEE Dizzy is not at all dizzy. Sha has been going with a boy for a year and loves him very much. He has many faults, she tells me, but the chief fault is that old bug-bear— drink. She knows through painful experience in her home what it means when the man of the house drinks, and she just can't bear to marry one who doesn't know enough to temperate in his habit. The great trouble is that she can't forget him and loves him so hard that she. bursts into tears when she thinks about him. She doesn't want to go out with other boys, even with one who likes her very much and wants to go with her. The pain of parting doesn't seem to be getting any better, and she does not know what to do. Well, dear, you certainly would have to love a man a very, very great deal fo continue loving and faithful all through a long lifetime of drinking and what it entails. You are a wise girl to realize that in spite of your love for this boy, you could not be happy if you married him. The sad part of it is that so many men like him are so very lovable, Wives go through all sorts of suffering and stay faithful to the end. But I wonder if it is worth the pain? It is certainly a test of love to live with a man for years, to see him intoxicated time after time, to wait night after night for him tn come home, agonizing over what may have happened to him. Of never knowing whether there is going to be money for the rent, if the children are going to have food and clothes, and worst of all, are going to be maimed mentally because of the shame of such a father. I can only advise you, dear, to go out with other boys until you get over your love for him. You are young and will forget in time if you try hard enough. Why do you not talk to your mother? Her experience and advice would be worth a great deal to you. of potassium permanganate as a foot wash is often valuable In such cases. It will be readily seen that the condition is not as simple as lt appears, and in most cases requires expert advice and treatment, rather than home treatment and amateur remedies.

PAGI FIVE j King, Queen and Princesses, Dukes, Earls, Peers in a Gorgeous Pageant at Opening of British Parliament By GEORGE HAMBLETON Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, Oct. 28 (CP)-In splendid pageantry, the King opened parliament today. It was the first occasion on which His Majesty, with the queen by his side, had addressed the lords and commons in parliament assembled. The speech from the throne, read by the king, pledged the government to attempt to restore peace in war-wracked Spain and China. It said energetic steps would be taken to complete air-raid protection and promised additional help to the needy. It revealed the king had invited King Leopold of Belgium to visit him in November and King Carol of Rumania to come to London next spring. Referring to the proposed Indian durbar, it said his majesty was looking forward "to the time when it will be possible for me to visit my Indian empire,'' The speech promised air raid protection at home and forecast more help for needy families. Storms had swept over the country during the week-end. But this morning opened in soft October sunshine. Early crowds lined the streets from Buckingham Palace lo West- NELSON Social.. By MRS. M. J.

The House of Peers presented such a scene as only the ancient customs.of Britain afford. Peers in j scarlet robes cut with bands of ■■ miniver crowded the benches. Numbers stood in the aisles. Back and forth across the chamber peeresses' jewels flashed in facets or light. PRINCESS EXCITED WATCHER Perched on high, pedestals above, the dusty statues of Norman kings, clad in chain-armor, looked gloomily down on the moving scene. In the royal gallery, which leads to the House of, Peers, sat little Princess Elizabeth, an excited spectator. Odd companions sat together in the ambassadors' box. There was Ivan Maisky, the Soviet ambassador, in plain evening dress. On his left sat Count Dino Grandi, of Italy, his bitter opponent on the Spanish nonintervention committee. To M. Maisky's left was Joachim Von Ribbentrop, envoy of Germany. The Chinese ambassador sat in the front row. A short distance behind him was the ambassador of Japan. On a bench just in front of them all were the Archbishops of Canter-, bury and York. Ten minutes before noon a sea of robes and uniforms rippled and then rose as the Dukes of Gloucester and Kent, accompanied by their duchesses and the Princess Royal, entered the chamber. The Duchess of Kent took a seat beside Princess Alfce, Countess of Athlone, who welcomed her with a kiss. TRUMPETS RING OUT Eight minutes passed. The lights sank. In the half gloom the dusty statues of the Norman kings looked dustier still. Diamonds glittered in the wavering light. Trumpets rang out. Pursuivants, heralds, kings-of- arms, gorgeous in contour, slowly entered the chamber. Then as the King and Queen slowly crossed the threshold, the chamber was flooded in light. The great assembly rose. The Queen, resting her left hand on His Majesty's right arm, took her scat on her throne. The King sat to her right. A peer, bearing the cap of maintenance, stood on the steps of the throne to the King's right, peers bearing the sword of state stood to Ius left. "My lords, pray be seated." The King's words carried quietly across the hall. Then the King, slowly and with short, frequent pauses, read the speech from the throne, outlining the government's program for the session. The speech ended. The royal procession re-formed and moved slowly again from the chamber. The faithful Commons, headed by the speaker, Captain E. A. Fitzroy, returned to their own chamber to consider the "address in reply to His Majesty's most gracious speech from the throne." But that will not be their first order of business. For, in assertion of the ancient right to consider their own business before business from the crown, the Commons first will consider the oulawries bill. The bill again will disappear with nothing heard of it again for another session. Thus Westminster preserves its ancient traditions. Outside the crowds again were cheering as the great coach passed slowly down Whitehall. It is scarcely a year ago since they cheered King Edward VIII.

BUCHAN'S NEW BOOK PRAISED DEATHS NEW YORK, Oct. 26 (CP)— The New York Times today reviewed at length "Augustus," the latest book by John Buchan, who is Lord Tweedsmuir. Governor-General of Canada. The book describes the life of Oc- tavius Augustus, ruler of Rome at the time of Christ. The reviewer. Ralph Thompson, said that "for presumably good reasons of his own. the Governor-General of Canada has picked this as the proper time to bring forth a laudatory study of the Fuehrer principle in politics." "Not,'of course, the principle as it is applied today," he wrote. "But writing of an age long past—and under the name of John Buchan, student of history and private citizen—the Governor-General has found it possible to speak as frankly as he pleases. The result is of ever greater interest to democrats than to students of ancient civilization." By The Canadian Preu CONCORD, N.H.—Frank Cross- ley, 55, vaudeville actor. TORONTO - Ernest H.

VICTORIA, Oct. 26 (CP)- The legislature assembly stood twice today, in silent tribute to the late Hon. S. F. Tolmie, premier of the province from 1928 to 1933, and to C. K. Courtney, law clerk from 1906 to 1936. Premier Pattullo said he had called on Dr. Tolmie a short time before his death. The former premier was cheerful, buoyant, and had no complaint, Mr. Pattullo said. "Dr. Tolmie possessed the superlative faculty of making friends," said the premier. "I don't think he was any too enamored of public affairs, yet had conscientious scruples as to public duty. His career as a public servant was long and honorable and of the responsible offices he held I believe he liked the ministry of agriculture at Ottawa more than any others. "His death was a distinct loss to his native province and to the nation." Dr. Frank P. Patterson, leader of the Conservative opposition, followed Mr. Pattullo in paying tribute to the late premier. Tardieu Was in League With Fasci LYON, France, Oct. 26 (CP-Havas)— Andr Tardieu admitted in court here today that while he was premier he subsidized Colonel Francois De La Rocque, pro-Fascist chief of the now disbanded Croix de Feu. The veteran statesman, who headed cabinets in 1929, 1930 and 1932, testified at libel proceedings brought by Duke Pozzo Di Borgo against De La Rocque on the ground the latter had impugned the duke's patriotism. Tardieu testified he was in touch with De La Rocque over an 18- month period, and in April, 1932- only a month before his last govern tnent fell—paid him 60,000 francs. McCALLUM LIB. CHOICE IN ONT.

MCDONOUGH Associated Press Science Writer ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 26 AP)- A new method of treating diabetes with insulin swallowed in small tablets instead of by injections with a hypodermic needle, was forecast today before the National Academy of Sciences. Three University of Rochester Ehysicians, Dr. John R. Murlin, Dr. ,awrence E. Young, and Dr. William A. Phillips, announced that they had successfully treated some human beings and dogs suffering from diabetes with the new solid preparation. The compound is composed of insulin and hexyl-resorcinol, a common antiseptic and fever- reducing drug. The resorcinol acts as an em- ulsifier to clean fat from the linings of the stomach and intestines by making it more soluble in water than it normally is.

BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Editor ■ CHICAGO, Oct. 26 (AP) - A , new attack on cancer by use of refrigeration, on the principle that wild growth of this disease may be cured as the growth of plants and some animals is stunted by cold, was announced to the American College of Surgeons here today. The experiments all were done on human beings. Among them one case of "hibernation" of a cancer was produced. Under refrigeration this particular cancel' has disappeared although the pa- tionl had been pronounced "hopeless," The refrigeration technique was announced as "a new point of view'' by Temple Fay. M.D., professor and head of the department of neurosurgery and George C. Henny, M.D.. director of the department of physics, Temple University school of medicine, at Philadelphia. The type of cancer refrigerated is metastasizing carcinoma. It is the kind which spreads from one part of the body to another. It is one of the most dangerous. Dr. Henny, the physicist, devised instruments which could be placed on the human body to lower temperature in specific regions. The most immediate and striking result of the refrigeration was "prompt and gratifying relief of pain." There was temporary improvement in the general nutritional state of the patients. Where the refrigeration instruments-could "be applied directly to tlie cancer growths have shown some diminution in size. Microscopical examination of the refrigerated growths showed "marked degeneration'' of the wild cells. The report says the experiment has not been going oil long enough to draw any conclusion as to the ultimate result of refrigeration. Test Pieces Will Be Same as Used at Vancouver Preparations lor the syllabus of the 9th annual music festival to be held in Nelson in May, 1938. are well under way, members of the executive announced Tuesday. At a meeting Monday night, the committee decided to adopt the same test pieces for the festival which will be used at the Vancouver festival, May 16.

An intermediate championship competition has been added in the piano class. Competitors between the ages of eight and 12 will compete for tlie junior championship and competitors between 13 and 20 for the intermediate championship. "Instrumental ensemble open" will lake the place of the instrumental trio open, and any combination up to eight pieces is allowed. Their test piece will consist of chamber music of their own choice. It is the intention of the committee to have a separate adjudicator for the elocution class. Executive of the festival is composed of Leslie Craufurd, president; A. J. Cornish, E. A.

C, Oct. 26-Names already well known in Canadian hockey have been added to the Smoke Eater roster this season. Put them alongside those veterans who have hoisted the orange and black high in the hockey standings in recent years and you have a combination that should go places in Canada's glistening sport this season. Eligibles among the names sup-' plied by club secretary Jim "Webster today are five almost certain to land playing positions with the Trail entry in West Kootenay league. Dozens more are known to be in the city, eager for a tryout to show club officials what they've got. FIVE WELL KNOWN Outstanding among the new arrivals are two young forwards from last year's Canadian junior champions, Winnipeg Monarchs Dick Kow- sinak and George McCready. They were wing mates of Pete Langelle, signed by Conny SmyttTe of Tor-, onto Leafs. Dick patrols the left lane and George is a right winger. Then there is Dave Duchak, star centreman of last season's Battleford Beavers, Allan cup finalists, and Dave Buchanan, sub-goalie with the same club. Another lad who comes here with something of a reputation in hockey circles is Doug Norris, last year with Prince Albert Mintos. It is expected ice will be available the second week in November and drills will get underway about that time. Pa Jackson Is Dead in England LONDON, Oct. 26 (CP).—Nicholas Lane Jackson, grand old man of British port, died today. He would have been 87 years old on Nov. 1.

No details ot the contract were made public in an announcement which followed a brief conference between Siebert and Club President Ernest Savard, SCOTLAND AND WALES MEET THIS SATURDAY CARDIFF, Wales, Oct. 26 (CP Cable)—Undefeated in last year's three matches, Wales, champions of fhe international soccer tournament, defeated Scotland here Saturday. The 1937 campaign opened October 23 when a young English team overwhelmed Ireland 5-1 at Belfast. Seasoned players who have gained top rating in league matches will line up for this match. Five stars who have kept Glasgow Rangers in the forefront of Scottish league warfare in recent years are included in the north o' the Tweed eleven, while Hearts and Aston Villa each have two. Wales is retaining seven players from the team that edged out a 2-1 victory over Scotland last year. The teams: Wales — Goal, Gray (Chester); backs, Turner (Charlton Athletic), Hughes (Birmingham); halfbacks, Murphy (West Bromwich Albion), Hanford (Sheffield Wednesday); Richards (Birmingham); forwards, Phillips (Aston Villa), Leslie Jones (Coventry City), Perry (Don-aster Rovers), Bryn Jones (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Morris (Birmingham).

PAGE SEVEN Dahlstrom to Play MUSKEGON, Mich., Oct, 26 (CP) —Cully Dahlstrom, last season with St. Paul of the American associ alion, will hold down a regular centre position with Chicago Black Hawks in the opening National hockey league game in Chicago, Nov ember 4, Coach Bill Stewart an nounced today. The rookie has been so impressive in workouts, Stewart said he would work between Pete Palangio, who stepped up from the American association last winter, and Bill Kendall, right winger, traded lo Toronto Maple Leafs for Pep Kelly for the latter part of last season. YOUTH TO CARRY THE TORCH FOR TORONTO LEAFS FOR THIS SEASON (This is the first of a Canadian Press series of stories on prospects on National Hockey league teams, training for opening of the schedule November 4, others will follow.) By Sydney Gruson Canadian Press Staff Writer TORONTO, Oct. 26 (CP)—Youth will carry the torch for Toronto Maple Leafs in the coming National league campaign, the old stalwarts have gone and in their place Conny Smythe has assembled the youngest of his veterans and mixed them with budding minor leaguers and a few outstanding amateurs. Half the defence the Leafs started the 1935-36 season with is gone- Happy Day to New York Americans and King Clancy to coach Montreal Maroons. It is yet unknown whether Smythe has uncovered replacements of sufficient skill. The makings of a great hockey club lie in the surviving members of Toronto's front lines, where Harvey (Busher) Jackson, Syl Apps, Charlie Conacher, Gordon DriUon, Bill Thorns and Buzz Boll will carry the burden of offensive. There's unlimited power among these forwards. But, making the defence problem all the more acute, they arc not the best back-checking men in the business. The oldest member of the team at 28, Reginald (Red) Horner, will team with young Jimmy Fowler as the No. 1 rearguard in front of Walter (Turk) Broda. Reg Hamilton, in all probability, will draw a third regular bertli on the defence. There Is a fourth, and perhaps a fifth, to be chosen from Jack Church Jack Howard, Chuck Shannon, Jack Fox, a member of Winnipeg's Dom inion junior champions, and Bob Davidson, a forward who has been shifted back in Leaf workouts at Gait. Punch, Smythe expects, will be added to the attack by Murph Chamberlain from Sudbury's Allan cup Tigers and Bill Thomson, former Port Arthur Bearcat and regarded as one of the best amateur wlngmen In the country last season. They are fighting for regular spots along with Regis (Pep) Kelly, Nick Metz and a half-dozen Syracuse stars who can go up from the International-American league If they show enough prior to Leafs' November 4 opening Pete Langelle may make the N. H, L. in one jump from junior ranks. Also from Winnipeg's championship Monarchs, Langelle has big-league class. Gone from the Leaf roster, besides Day and Clancy, are Frank Fin- nigan, retired, Jack Shill and Art Jackson, sold by Smythe in the greatest rebuilding campaign attempted since the club relinquished the Stanley cup in 1933.

'Riders and Argos Charge Each Other With Deliberate Roughing OTTAWA, Oct. 26 (CP)-Charges and counter-charges flew thick and fast today as Ottawa Rough Riders and Toronto Argonauts carried on a longe-range review of last Saturday's game in Toronto. Argonauts, through President Tommy Alison, charged Bunny Wadsworth, 260-pound middle, with deliberate roughness in the breaking of Harry Sonshine's jaw. Ottawa, Rough Riders countered with the charge Argo players ganged Ehvood McFall, a young outsider just up from junior ranks, and broke his leg with a deliberate kick. Almost the only definite result of the wordy duel was a grand buildup for Saturday's return game here with officials of the Rough Riders considering whether they should build additional bleacher stands to accomodate the crowd. Argonauts made their complaint to Dr. Andy Davies, president of the Big Four, insisting Wadsworth be suspended pending a full investigation of his play on Sunshine. "SAW NOTHING" "I was at the game and saw nothing of an attack on Sonshine by Wadsworth." Davies said today. He told of meeting Referee Joe Breen, umpire Pean Bennett and Frank Turville, head linesman, after the game and not one of them considered Wadsworth fouled the Argo secondary. Wadsworth was penalized on the play for a high tackle, not deliberate roughness. Jimmy McCaffrey, manager of Rough Riders, said team members were prepared to take affidavits McFall's leg was broken when an Argo Player kicked him while he was lying on the ground, after being clipped from the play, Davies, who set McFall's leg after the game in Toronto, said it was a direct fracture and could have been caused by a kick.

REVENUE IS UP $1,250,1 EXPENDITURES INCREASE $2,110,000 Golds Unchanged as Oils Advance VANCOUVER, Oct. 26 (CP)—Prices of leading oil issues surged forward on Vancouver stock exchange today while golds were mostly unchanged and base metals mixed. Trading was light, transactions totalling 158,870 shares. Calgary k Edmonton Oil was up 15 cents at 1.80, Okalta 12 at 96 and Home 6 at 1.12. Commonwealth headed activity and closed up 8 at 27 and Calmont 3 at 38. A. P. Consolidated gained 2 at 26 and United 1% at 16%. Royalite added $1 at 31.00 and Mercury 1 at 17.

SMELTERS SLIPS TORONTO, Oct. 26 (CP)—Stocks perked up moderately around midday but lost their recovery force as the session advanced, turning gains into narrow losses before tlie close of today's stock market. Base metals displayed the main weakness in the late transactions, showing losses of 2 to 3 points among the lenders. Heavy trading in a group of the junior golds made the aggregate volume figure at 805,000 shares appear more important than the quality of the buying warranted. A penny issue, Amm Gold, accounted for a trade of 230,000 shares on a gain of 3% to 20%. The penny issues divided about equally on losses and gains. Heavy selling of Eldorado featured the morning session and the price broke to 1.50. Brokers mentioned the discovery of radium ore in northwestern Ontario as the explanation for Eldorado's weakness on the presumption that Eldorado would in time have a competitor in radium production. The price recovered to close at 1.69, off 26 cents net for the day. Smelters finished 3% down at 54, Nickel 1% down, Noranda 2 down and Hudson Bay 14-point down.

With WYNNE GIBSON, WARREN HULL, JACKIE MORAN and CHARLENE WYATT ~ PLUS - Meet Nero Wolfe With EDWARD ARNOLD — COMING THURSDAY — IRENE DUNNE ROBERT TAYLOR "Magnificent Obsession" MORE ABOUT SINO-JAPAN (Continued From Page One) Japanese naval units fought their way into the bitterly-contested north station in the haze of dawn and at 6:15 a.m. the rising sun flag was raised above the shell-pocked station that withstood two months of the heaviest pounding. British sentries on duty nearby at the international settlement border heard Japanese bugles blare as the red-and-white banner fluttered over the captured objective. Japan's forces also occupied the Kiangwan racecourse, just north of Shanghai, another long-fought sector of the north Shanghai front, The backbone of the Chinese troops were retreating in good order, well organized unit by unit, most of them escaping the Japanese enveloping movement and were expected to reorganize defences quickly on the creek banks. General Chiange Kai-Shek, head of the Chinese government, moved close to the Shanghai war scene, arriving at Soochow, between Shanghai and Nancing, presumably to bolster Chinese operations personally. Even after the Japanese flag was hoisted over the north station at Shanghai heavy explosions resounded through the region. Since the Chinese were known to have mined the area it was believed mines had been set off after the Japanese moved in.
