"I was hit by a bullet in the neck and could do no more than swim and run blindly under the diving airplanes. My Impression is thai many passengers never had a chance even to get out of the plane." Pilot Woods and Radio Operator Loh escaped serious injury. Woods was taken aboard the United States gunboat Mindanao at Macao. PROMINENT BANKERS Two passengers unaccounted for BETTER PLUMBING SERVICE —PHONE 181— B. C. PLUMBING ond HEATING Co. were prominent Chinese bankers- Hsu Sing-Loh, member of the Shanghai municipal council and president of the National Commercial Savings banks, and Hu Pei-Kong, general manager of the Bank of Communications. Officials of the China National Aviation Corporation said the Japanese probably thought the plane was carrying Dr. Sun Fo, head of the legislative council of China, just returned from Europe where he sought foreign aid against the Japanese. Dr. Sun cancelled his reservation overnight and flew to Hankow, where he arrived today. He is the son of the late Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, founder of the Chinese Republic. A British gunboat and Chinese troops set out from Canton to search the waterways to Canton's south for any other survivors, A United States gunboat left Hong Kong on a similar mission. PREMEDITATED An official of the C.N.A.C, said: "There is no doubt that the attack was entirely premeditated. The plane was clearly marked and was on a regular scheduled run. , . ." United States in Crests hold a 45 per cent share of the aviation corporation and the Chinese government holds the remainder.

Arrangements for Rebuilding Dykes Al (reslon Made I. ■ CRESTON, B.C. — financial ar- I rangements have been made and other details worked out tor an immediate start at replacing the washed out section at the Wynndel end o! Creston Dyking District, and I a comprehensive plan of strong tlicn- , Ing the dyke generally, following the receding of he waters that inundated the 7500-acre area early in June. At least $20,000 will be re- - quired for repairs—and more, if I necessary, to thoroughly rehabili- : tatc the levees. h Information to this effect was forthcoming following a meeting of he landowners in the United Church mil, which was largely attended; and was presided over by Guy Constable, chairman of the dyking -.district board of trustees. ',' j A statement of the expense incurred in the attempt to avert the going out of the dykes was pre-, sented and was generally conceded . to be very reasonable. A great deal I ft the outlay was for sacks, all of which are still on hand and available |or future emergencies.

The company has purchased a dragline, which will be here this week, and repair operations will get finder way immedia' ly.

NELSON, B.C.-THURSDAY MORNING, AUG. 26. 1938. FREDERICK NIVEN, NOTED BRITISH AUTHOR, PREFERS TO WORK IN KOOTENAY Why? See, to the left, picture of Mr. Nivfcn's home on the West Arm of Kpotertay Lake, near Nelson. No longer "a rolling (stbne". "Who's Whp"'aays of the famous author 61 "Justice of the Peace", of "Mrs. Barry", of. "Triumph" and of "Coloured Spectacles" that he is "somewhat of a rolling stone." But that is not true of his life since .--, h. lefUhe' British Ministry of In- • formation, which he served during i the wW..,/.' " He was born in Valparaiso, Chile, ■ •, ' sixty years ago, he was educated in Glasgow and during his-"rolling 1 stoning" Is staid to have trundled for . a short time freight trucks at the C. \ " P. R. station at Nelson," That was in ;A Nelson's quite early days; In "Wild Honey," Mr. Niven tells, delightful .stories of .tramps in British Columbia's' wilds and of "queer fellows" (the title of the book when published in England) that he met. Niven's "Justice of the Peace" is included In a library of classics. Its worth has been honored by introductions by Christopher Morley and Sir Hugh Walpole. Both "Triumph" and "Mrs. Barry" have been recommended by the English Book Society. Kootenay's internationally admired author loves mountaineering, but most of all he seems to love his literary work in his cottage at Willow Point, working beside shelves of books, always a friendly and shaggy dog not far away. He likes to roll his own cigarettes, but no longer with elusive Bull Durham he once learned to twine in the prairie. The Niven home is iii thekind of surroundings that used to be called "sylvan", but it is not In the wilds. It is four miles from Nelson, by highway or motorboat, it has electrid light, and all the rest of it. By telephone Mr. Niven may talk to his publisher in New York or if he de sires by trans-Atlantic pbone to London. He tells an amusing story about wayward copy and proofs of "Coloured Spectacles" which suggest trans-Atlantic telephoning possibilities. Nor is the atmosphere intellectually that of the .wilds. Mm. Niven, who was Mary Pauline Thorne- Quelch, makes one think of Chelsea rather than of Skookum Creek, of Montparnasse rather than Tete Jaune Cache. Of charming and very real personality, she comes ot a family devoted to the dramatic art and herself has been associated with literary work and literary people almost since school days. The adjacent photos are Intended to suggest why Mr. Niveh prefers to write his books on the shores of Kootenay lake, rather than In London, or New York, or Cannes. r^mmmmsf^^- PHOTO B1! A1LV NEWS HOLIDAY NOTES By G. S. REES (Part 1.) Definitely I like train travel, though salt-water voyaging appeals to me more. Nations muss e"ach'other up and get in caoh other's hair, governments go haywire, and the unemployed sleep in art galleries; budgets remain in a perpetual unbalance and businesses go bust, bul through all these vicissitudes and with many troubles ot their own, trains leave on time day. after day, month in/year out, in all weathers, and people arrive at destinations on time, or nearly always. Traffic officers require to know all the answers for delayed trains for their own good. I like to snuggle into scat or sleeping berth, wheels clickihg below, with the melodious whistle telling 'em I'm coming right along. You take the high road, I'll take the railroad (With hardly a pause for station identification)! II is a fine tribute to the methods which have been developed during recent years for handling traffic and scheduling runs to the increased tempo of modern transportation that the giant miracles of steam, oil and electricity riding the rails do not get in one another's way—at least not very often! Rail transport today is faster and safer and more friendly than ever: it has taken to modernism from tip to tall with siim shafts of silver streaking, tiie steel racetrack like everybody's - business i at. more tljan a mile a minute clip on split second schedules, Gorgeous trains of all colors, long gleaming dragons that attract the rail-rider with alluring interior decors of Persian blue, or peaches and cream color- schemes; with Soil-less chromium gadgets housed in lighler-than-steel rustless equipment. Soon we shall have conductors wearing gardenias, and offering patrons a boutonierro of orchids! It is interesllng to note (or is it?) that if all the cars and engines of the' American roads were coupled together they would make a train 17,000 miles long, but what would a master mechanic or a train dispatcher do with it; also that all the dining cars servo enough meals each year to feed everyone in Nelson for an indefinite period. What a pity, by the way, that Uncle Sam and John Canuck cannot adequately feed the thousands of their destitute citiziyjs starving in the land of plenty. The travelling public is impressed by the clean appearance of the coaches they are invited to patronize, and also in a measure by the motive power at the bead-end, but railroad men know that the, roadbed itself and the equipment that goes with it are the real foundation of successful and safe rail transportation. The railway takes its very name from its, road of steel. Vast sums are spent annually in keeping the trackin-firsf class shape; from this indlMct tax on revenue, rubber- tired , carriers cavorting along the roadways are entirely free and are thus placed in a preferred position, PAST AND FUTURE , Yea verily, the old iron horse has been re-shod, and train travel has regained a full fledged flavor and favor; streamline, air conditioned and fast operating schedules have boomed passenger business-by capturing the imagination of the travelling public. The modern vacationist — 1938 model — in this technological age has conquered space and time, and seeks recreation in ever-wWenihg areas. The rapid development of transportation systems to meet these up-to-date vacation requirements has been one of the prime factors in booming the travel business to the world's third largest Industry — only food and housing rating higher. There has been a rebirth: of the pioneering spirit that put the railways on the North American map in the first place; the railways form an essential link in the economic structure, and in Canada we have the "All-red" route that is a vital link ln Empire communications and vijal for its defence against aggression.. When the rubber-tired vehicles cannot 'deliver the goods', the tried and trusty' engine hitches on to half a mile of box cars, and "takes 'em through" without more than a casual notice of atmospheric hazards. SIMPLE LIFER8 California's caravanners are familiar adjuncts lo California's highways. Trailers trailing smoothly in rear of autos number over, fifteen thousand in the States; these rolling homes provide quarters for about fifty thousand 'floaters', who sfeep nightly under, the rounded roofs of their covered wagons. Many trailers are positively luxurious, a regular 'Lodge in the wilderness' and enable trailer-fans to get back to Nature the easiest way, or even get off the map, and to wander cdm- fortably with the freedom, though not the mode, of raggle-taggle gypsies. Many have the conveniences of luxury- flats. Trailer nomads may not be quite as ■ 'comfy' ■ as in an anchored house,:.but one cannot 'keep'a house'moving ahead of the tax-collector! Doubtless the Powers- that-be will soon discover ways and means of .chasing the elusive tax- dollar to its, lair, and cause the wandering tribes to contribute to the high cost of Government.' (To Be Continued) Gardiner Opposes Immigration if Not Assisted, He Says LILLOOET, B. C„ Aug. 24 (CP) — , Hon.. James.

He arrived here by plane yesterday, accompanied by J. G. Turgeon, Liberal member of parliament for Cariboo, and Louis LeBourdais, Liberal member of the British Columbia legislature for Cariboo riding.

Bargains In tho "Classified" Today is i 2. human side InevW BY EDWIN C.HILL Sir William Johnson Had Uncanny Way With Six Nations Indians JOSEPH BRANT , The marks-of his tomahawk ' are still on the stair-rail of Johnson Hall, Up in the beautiful Mohawk valley of New York state they are celebrating the 20Oth anniversary of the arrival in this coutry of a young Irishman who was largely responsible, for making North America an English-speaking continent. He was'Sir William Johnson of Johnson Hall. "Johnson of the Mohawks", and 'no man ever lived a more picturesque and romantic career. Sir William's deeds loomed large in British North America. He exerted a strange and mighty influence with and over the'Iroquois—the finest fighting -n*n this continent ever saw. If you stood today in the great entrance door of Johnson Hall, you would see the splid mahogany stair- rail which bears' to this day and hohr -the gashes made by the hat- che* of Joseph Brant, Chief Thay- endenaga.as ap order to his Mohawks and all other tribes of the Six Niftlons that Sir William's home must'not be molested, even though Sir William was there in his grave and half the confederation were fighting tor the British, HIS HOME A SOCIAL CENTRE Down that. noble stairway had tripped Sir William's lovely.Indian 8IR WILLIAM JOHNSON ".. , , largely responsible for making North America an English-speaking continent." wife. Molly Brant, on the arm of bluff, burly Sir William himself. Half the gentry ot New York had walked those halls. For Johnson Hall, as the seat of His Majesty's superintendent of the northern Indians, was as important, if not more so, than Albany or the town of New York down at the lower end of the Hudson. The whoje Mohawk valley and great regions to the north and south were the hunting grounds of the Six Nations,,the,most.warlike and formidable red men of the continent. Sensitive and savage, as undepend- able as the winds, they were held in check and in British alliance almost entirely by the genius and personal gifts of Sir William Johnson. Had, it not been for this remarkable man, the French, lavish with their gifts, almost „urely would have won them over, and Canada and the American colonies almost certainly have been French. FUR TRADE WAR Two huhdred years ago France and England were still fighting out their long battle for the fur trade, and incidentally for the richest slice oMhe continent, Encircling posts and missions ot tbe French- stretched from the,Gulf of Mexico to the St Lawrence, with the logical purpose of confining the English to tneir narrow stretch of sea coast But between-them, stretching from Nia- gara.to the Hudson, was the country of the Iroquois—that powerful confederacy of Senecas, Cayugas, Onon- dagas, Oneias, Tuscaroras and Mo- hawks, which had long been at odds with the French. This was the "long house" of the Six Nations. And as the Senecas were its western guard- tans the Mohawks were keepers of its eastern gate. WON IROQUOIS TO ENGLISH Sir William controlled the Six Nations of the Iroquios, won them to the English side in the final struggle between French and English and held all but one of the tribes neutral in the bloodiest of the Indian wars. He was as the bicen- ennial program says "largely responsible for making North America an English-speaking continent." Sir William's mansion Johnson Hall remains today little changed from what it was when the council fir,es of 'the Six Naions flared on its spacious acres and Sir William smoked the pipe of peace with the great Hendrik, war chief of the Mohawks. , He was a long, lean, flaming- haired Irish lad of 23 when he came over as the protege of hi; uncle, the famous Sir Peter Warren, British admiral, for \vhom Warren St., in New York, is named and who once owned about all the Hudson river waterfront below I4th St., along with most of Greenwich village. UNCLE GAVE JOHNSON START His rich uncle "set him up" in life by lending the greater part of the money, with which he purchased 100,000'acres of land in the beautiful Mohawk valley around what Is now Johnstown. All his life he added to that land. For his remarkable services with the Indians the British parliament made him a grant ot 5000 pounds. He defeated the . French in a critical battle, and the king made him a baronet and Indian superintendent. His last years of life saw the American revolution impending and the grim prospect saddened him. He was torn terribly between his lifelong habits of loyalty to the British crown and his innate sense of Justice and the spirit of freedom which had grown out of his work and con- tacts—out of the air itself. Which way would the gallant old soldier have turned had he lived? No one can say, but I have always believed he would have cast his lot with the colonies, and kept his Indians neutral. He died in 1774, at the age of 59. PHILATELIST DIES NEW, YORK, Aug. 24 (AP)-John N. Luff, 77, leading philatelic expert for many years, died yesterday at his home here.

England'i margin of vlotory—an Inningi and 878 runt—wai the biggest for either country In (2 yean of International contests. fifteen hours' batting netted the Englishmen a record total of 903 rum.for seven wickets, deolared, Australia's response wu so feeble that the team was dismissed twloa In five hours for scores of 201 and 123. Tired and discouraged by absence of Captain Don Bradman and J. H. Singleton, injured earlier in the game, the nine remaining Australians threw off the restraint that characterized their batting in previous tests. But the efforts to score made their defence the more vulnerable and they were easy prey for the opposing bowlers. ON EVEN TERMS The five-game series ended with the countries on even terms with one victory each. The first two tests were drawn and the third abandoned through rain without a ball being bowled. The Aussies retain the mythical Ashes won in England in 1934 and defended successfully against Gilbert Allen's team in the 1936-37 series .in Australia. Today's vlotory wai the 85th for England, two.len than Australia. Thirty-one matches have ended In draws. When Leonard Hutton, York- ihlre's 22-year-old first-wicket batsman made 364 runs yesterday to become highest scorer in test-match competition, he also emerged as leading batsman of the current contests. Playing in three ot the four tests, he compiled 473 runs in four innings for an average of a little more than 118 runs. Bradman, Australia's leading batsman, made 434 runs In six innings, twice not out an average of 108.50. BEST BOWLgR J. O'Reilly stood out as the most consistent bowler in the four tests. The tall New South Wales schoolmaster captured 20 wickets for 610 runs, an average ot 30.50. The only English bowler to play in all the matches was Kenneth Fames.

It's Where, What and How You Advertise That Counts-Use a Classified Ad Christina the Lovely A beautiful photograph of Christina Lake by Miss Peggy McCallum of Trail, daughter of D»nald McCallum, Grand Forks. Serial Story . . . TWO WORLDS (Continued From Page Four) being called on this case when you were in my office. Doctor Merridew has been trying to get in touch with me for several days and only succeeded after you left." "I'm so glad, so glad you're here," Noel murmured. "I know you can save Laurie. I know you can." "I hope I can justify your faith," Julian said gravely. Then asked, "Who is this chap Jimmy? She murmurs his name over and over. 1 think it might be well to have him here." Before Noel could answer, Ruth interposed. "Nobody seems to know anything about him, Doctor Paige. I think myself we should have him -.here. There's a psychological effect to that sort of thing." Noel looked at her, an expression on her face of silent disgust. But Ruth smiled sweetly and went on: "Miss Shayne has been trying to find him." Noel explained, then, the efforts she had made and how she had failed to find any trace of Jimmy. A thoughtful frown came to Julian's face. 'There should be some .way we could trace him," he said, then added. "Laurie is very ill, Noel. There's only a fighting chance." "But you will save her. I know you will," Noel exclaimed passionately. A little while later she went over to the nearest drug store to get a : prescription filled. When she came back, Julian and Ruth were talking together, quietly and earnestly just outside the sick room door. Noel went in and sat down beside Laurie. She could not keep the tears from her eyes when she looked at the wasted little form, the white, ravaged face. This was the ; first time she had ever been face I to face with anything so terrible I as death. Still she would not—could not, believe—that Laurie would die. Then Julian and Ruth came back I to the bedside, and Noel moved away. For something like 10 minutes they stood there studying Laurie's - condition, nodding at each other now '■and then in silent understanding. Noel had never seen two people work together in such perfect harmony as Julian and Ruth Chester. It seemed that the nurse antieipated his every need, even his thoughts. Seeing them together, realizing how much they had in common. Noel relinquished every faint hope She had had that some day she and Julian would find each other. Julian was a real man. Thought- I ful. highly intelligent. He knew 1 what he wanted, To him Ruth Chester seemed an ideal woman—the I perfect mate. Noel remembered only I too well that Juliin had said that a marriage between himself and Ruth dicker would be most suitable, had they been attracted to each other. And it was plain enough to see that an attraction did exist between them. They seemed to belong together. Sitting out in a chair in the hall, so as to be close when needed, Noel was aroused from her thoughts by Julian's grave voice. "I didn't know until Ruth told me that you were helping out during the day. Are you still dancing at—that place?' She nodded. There wasn't anything else to do but admit the truth. Then Julian said, "Miss Chester thinks we should make different arrangements." Noel might have expected this. Ruth Chester's plan didn't include having Noel around where Juliap could see her every Any. Noel's first impulse was to come out frankly and say that she wasn't going to give up staying with Laurie during the day just beeause Ruth Chester didn't want her. But instead she asked quietly: "Don't you think I'm capable of really helping?'' "I've not been here long enough to judge as to that," Julian answered frankly. Noel's expresion fell. Then she looked up at him eagerly and said: "Kitty Perry said I obeyed instructions well. And I'm not going to leave Laurie during the day, unless —unless," but she didn't finish. Julian looked at her gravely. "But I though you were doing it only because there didn't seem to be any other way?" "I'm doing it because I want to. and because I know Laurie wants me near," Noel said firmly. "And if you don't think my inexperience is jeopardizing Laurie's chances, I'm going to stay. If you do—" but once again Noel couldn't finish. "I do not think that at all," Julian told her quickly. "I was afraid it—was too much for you That's the main reason." "Then you will let me stay?" she questioned hopefully. "Provided you get sufficient sleep and eat the proper amount of food." "Julian, I promise' to do bith," Noel agreed seriously. She knew Julian was giving her orders just as he would any other person under his care. But, somehow, it 'vas ineffably sweet to have him think- inE of her again. The next morning, quite early, the woman who lived out on Bick- ford telephoned and gave Noel the name of the place where' Jimmy worked.

The decline forced into pit execution a large number of stop loss orders, which added to the selling. A break in Winnipeg quotations touched off the liquidation movement here. Some of the selling was attributed to profit taking. Corn declined only fractionally, being strengthened by a renewal of exoort sales. Wheat closed lti-8% lower compared with yesterday's finish, Sept. 61%-62, Dec. 63%-64; Corn was unchanged to 1% lower, Sept. 51, Dec. 46%-%; Oats % off, FIX WHEAT PRICE PARIS, Aug. 24 (AP)-The national wheat office today fixed the price for France's 1938 crop at 204 francs a quintal (about $1.50'a bushel at current exchange rates.)

Toward the final hour, selected issues in the industrial and foreign groups showed gains of from 1 to more than 2 points. Utilities, however, were easy. U. S. government obligations were Irregular, registering changes for a 3-32 of a point advance to an equal decline.

Dies al Nakusp; Was 7( Years of Age Backed Nelson Power Plant and Trinity United Church ' A trail blazer of British Columbia, where he has lived for 48 years, and the last remaining member of the original P. Burns lc Co., Edmund C. Traves of Edgewood, died in Arrow Lakes hospital at Nakusp Tuesday, following an illness of about nine months. He was 74 years of age, and was a brother of the late T. A. Traves of Nelson, who died five years ago. In 1890 he came to Nelson from Calgary, working for Wilson & Perdue, butchers. In 1892 he married Miss Mary Ann McEeachern, their marriage licence being the first licence issued at the registry office in Nelson. Mrs. Margaret Madden, and her husband, the late Thomas Madden, secured the second licence. Mr. Traves and Mr. Madden and their fiancees, who were close friends. wished to have a double wedding. Their wish was to have Mr. Traves and his bride, who were Protestants, and Mr. Madden and his bride, who were Catholics, stand back to back, with a- Protestant preacher and Catholic priest, respectively, before them. Permission, however, was not granted for the double wedding. ENTERED BUSINE8S 1896 Mr. Traves entered business for himself in Nelson in 1896, opening the West Kootenay Butcher company, on Ward street. He continued in business for himself until 1909, when he sold out to P. Burns It Co., and moved to New Westminster as district manager for the company. He retired in 1928 from P. Burns It Co., and went to his ranch at Edgewood where he lived until the time of his death. While in Nelson, Mr.'Traves was one of the organizers of Kootenay lodge No. 16, I .0. O. F.,,and was a member of that lodge until his death. He was also one of the original organizers and directors of the Nelson fair. He was an active supporter of municipal power in Nelson. Another of his "causes" was the erection of a modern Trinity church. Born in Rochester, Mass., in 1864, Mr. Traves moved with his family to London, Ont, as an infant, and lived there until he was 20 years old. He received all his schooling there. In 1884 he moved to Winnipeg, and in 1885 came west to Calgary with the militia at the time of the Riel rebellion. While In Calgary he was associated with the original P. Burns company. Only last Monday, Mrs. Traves received a letter from Richard Burns, one of the officials of P. Burns & Co., thanking Mr. Traves and herself for information regarding early days in the Kootenays, but Mr. Traves was too ill to hear the letter read. The company Is preparing a book on early life of the company, and a great deal of material in it is from Mr. and Mrs. Traves. Besides his wife, he is survived by one son, C. W. Traves, of Edmonton, poultry commissioner for Alberta. Another son, E. C. Traves, jr., was killed in France in 1917, and the eldest son, Arthur, died in infancy. An adopted daughter, Myrtle, died in New Westminster in 1930. The funeral will be held today in Nelson. I.O.D.E. Tag/Trail, Brings in $225 for Labor Day Program TRAIL, B.
