Nelion ond Trail Men Win "Sparks" CALGARY, Alta, Dec. 4 - Unlted Statei charges of Axis espionage ln Argentina were tubstin- tlated today by an Argentine Federal Judge who declared In thl midst of an inquiry that ipylng here was directed from the German Embassy and made an initial move to punish the offending diplomati or expel them. Judge Miguel Jantui made the disclosure in ordering tht teiti ' mony of ilx accuied spies itnt to the Supreme Court to determine whether the Relch'i diplomati miy be brought to trial. The Supreme Court ii the only tribunal authorized to try diplomats but in order to do so it must obtain permiision from the German Gov ernment to have the representatives waive their diplomatic immunity from prosecution. A Court source said that if Berlin refused, as expected, to permit the diplomats to stand trial as common spies, then Argentina would be forced to declare them persona non grata. However, if the Supreme Court decided to press for the trial It appeared likely that Germany would withdraw the accused representatives or possibly oust them from the German Foreign Service lp an attempt to maintain diplomatic relations with Argentina. A resposslble legal authority said one of the persons named In the testimony taken by Judge Jantus was the German Embassy's Naval Attache, Capt. Dietriuh Neibuhr. Nelbuhr's expulsion from this country was demanded several months ago by a Congressional in •vestigating committee on the grounds that he arranged the escape of more than 100 interned sailors of the German battleehip Admiral Graf Spee, which was scuttled in the River Pate In December, 1939 after a defeat at the handa ot the British Naivy.

Two main arguments were presented: That the number of perions in need of Christmas.

It was also argued that a large number of perioni in the City made it their practice each year to give to the Cheer fund to help fellow citizeni in less fortunate circumstance!, counting It a privilege as much aa.a duty. In opposition to this contention- it was argued that appeals to the public have been io many, and that wartime financing had so reitricted fundi of mmy perioni, that they would not be able to give to Christinai Cheer. It wai pointed out thit there were no direct relief recipients as such; and that there appeared on tho City rolls the names o_.34 persons receiving social illowance. hese 34 were largely unemployables, it was explained.

If the $40,000,000 tubildy and tax reminlon plan worki effectively, he said, the cost-of-living Index en January I, 1943, ihould not rise over the November 1, 1942 figure of 117.7 per cent of the pre-war level. The November 1 Index li the moit reoent figure available. Mr. Gordon gave this information at a Press conference, held by Finance Minister Ilsley and attended by LOANS or piamond*. Jewelry. Radios.

The Pricei Board Chairman said it can be assumed that if the new program, which will reduce, the cost to the consumer of tea,, coffee, oranges and milk, works effectively/it will mean there will be no automatic increase in cost-of-living bonusei in February. The fifth item mentioned in Mr. Ilsley's broadcast announcement last night, beef, will not necessarily be cheaper to tha consumer but the proposed action to narrow the profit margin of some retailers might prevent an increase and efforts were under way to fix maximum retail prices for standard cuts, Mr. Gordon said. Mr. Ilsley said the saving to the Canadian household budget will be at least 840,000,000 a year, and possibly many times that. The total could not be estimated because It would depend upon the spiralling of costs which might have followed a rigid policy of meeting higher living costs by cost-of-living bonuses alone. It was quite possible other commodities would be added to the list announced last night, but it was hoped the action now taken would absorb the shock of any further cost increases over the ceiling. The Minister iaid hli ipeech lait night might hive given the Im- preulon the reductloni would push the coit of living nearer to the basic period uied In applying the celling a year ago (September 16 to October 11) thin It actually doei. He uid there wai no ponlblllty of the reduction proving lufficient to affect the cost-of-living bonuies now being paid. (Cost of living bonuies now are at a maximum of $4.23 a week. Employees ln Canadian industry who did not receive the bonus until last August, whfn the first general compulsory variation went into effect, receive a maximum of 00 cents a week or 3.4 per cent of weekly wages depending on their salary and age category.) Mr, Gordon said the Items chosen for price reductions were picked out for their widespread use, their nutritional value and the facility of applying the reductions. Milk was "weighted" at 4.17 per cent in the food group of the cost- of-living Index. Tea and coffee were almost universally used snd oranges, while possibly not common in lower-wage homes, would be more widely available at the lower cost. J. G. Taggart, Foods Controller in the Prices Board, said there wai a a retail order which he hoped would prevent further puncturing of the general price celling. Many foodi were not included in the ceiling control and there were elementi entering into the lituation over which the Canadian authorities had no control—thlijgi like shipping costs and war risk insurance. A I per cent Increaie In the cost of living li estimated to add $35.- 000,000 to Canadian household budgets, Mr. Gordon said. Operations of the Price! Board were believed to have kept down a rise that might have reached 19 per cent during the past 12 monthi.

Gov't Workers Given Right to Join Unions i I OTTAWA, Dec. 4 (CP).—Exten-1 resentatlom to the Government by lion of collective bargaining rlghti organized labor groupi. In announcing the new legislation today, Mr. Mitchell said that after to employees of Crown companies, described as "an important and significant development in the Government'! labor policy," wai announced today by Labor Miniiter' Mitchell. Under an Order-in-Council dated December 1, workeri ln Government plants are given the right to Join trade unions and to bargain collectively. Provisions of the Industrial Disputes Inveitlgation Act are also extended to employees ln Crown companlea Authority li provided for an officer or agent of a Crown company to negotiate with any of its employees with a view to concluding a collective agreement covering those of the company's employees whom they represent—providing the employees participating In the negotiations are properly-chosen representatives of a trade union to which belong the majority of the employees or the majority of employees In any trade or craft appropriate for collective bargaining. Crown companies are prohibited from entering Into any agreement which lncludei provliloni which thi Labor Mlniiter conilden wlll reitrlet or hamper output, except io fir ai ll necesiary to protect thi hialth ind lafety of thl em- ployeei. Since the principle of collective birgaining was recommended to war industries by an Order-in-Council passed ln June, 1940, a number of Crown companies engaged in war activity have been iet up and the atatui of the employeei In these plinta hai been the lubject of rep- I a comprehensive study of the situation "and with due regard to the splendid contribution made to the war effort by Canadian workers generally," the request wai coniid- ered "perfectly reasonable." In the preamble to the Order the Labor Minister represented that the Improvement of relations between employer and employees was of vital importance in accelerating production of war supplies and munitions of war, and in leading to full support of the war effort by workers in all branches of industry. Employees affected by the Order Include any person employed by a Crown company to do skilled or unskilled manual, clerical or technical work. It specifies that such employees "shall be free to join or to continue membership ln a trade union and to participate in the administration ind lawful actlvitiei of a trade union." Officera of Crown companiei ire prohibited from dismissing or refusing to employ any person because he is a member of a trade union, and from using influence to prevent an employee from joining or continuing his membership in a trade union. Moit recent representations for Crown company collective bargaining rights have been made by the United Steel Workers of America (C.I.O) on behalf of employees st Research Enterprise! Ltd., Government-owned company ln Toronto, with 8000 workers. Union officials said that if the legislation were not approved this week a mass meeting of employees would be called Saturday morning, halting production in the plant. i i i I I I I i I I (hanging Conditions May Tighten Rationing Control at Any Time OTTAWA, Dec. 4 (CP)— Exten- j nadlani, said Government otflclil* sion rather than relaxation of strict I today when questioned u to the fu- raiioning controli, eipeclally in re- tipect to imported necenitiei, remains the wartime prospect for Ca- Recruiting Officer Here!

"As I said, It'l none of my builneu WHOM you ie, or when, or how often," Barbara rm her finger along the blade of the knife, avoiding the older woman'i glance, "Ruth, you know It'i all right for me to go with Tom. We're not—I mein there Im't anything myone could uy about us. We never do mything clandestine. Other women play golf with men who aren't their huibandt." "At I wat saying," Ruth continued u If Barbara had not interrupted her, "it's none of my buil neu, And lt li no builneu of anyone else.

That alone makes you romantic and dangerous to the average womBn. 1 don't know where it began, but the firm 'young widow' hu ilways been i red flag to mirrled women." Barbara laughed. "That's because you're old-fashioned, Ruth. That went out long ago. People talk about fun ind freedom and understanding now. That'i niw, too, to 'most people. Fun, ,1 mean. I know it is to me. Oh, I've been having such a good time these last few weeks!" "I know," Ruth said. She didn't add that she knew what snatches of song meant, the ready, light laughter that was always on Barbara's lips, the little trill in her voice when lhe aniwered the telephone. "And that's ALL It ls," Barbara was laying. "Fun with Tom and Pamela—md Tony—when he can get away to Join ui. What do we do? We only play tennii, and golf and awlm and—and eit at each other'i homes." "And Tom Kilcran," Ruth said relentlessly," known to every mm and child In thli town, dropi ln here during the evening when he'i 'Just paulng by.'

U-Boat Prevents Allied Ships From Picking Up Hun Survivors BY WES GALLAGHER Associated Pren 8taff Writer ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, North Africa, Dec. 3 (Delayed) (AP)—British naval officeri told today how the waters between Sicily and Tunisia were left filled with German troops Tuesday nltfit by the Royal Navy's destruction of tnree Axis destroyers and four merchantmen but the presence ot a U-boat kept them from picking up any survivors. The' night engagement was con-1 eluded without a single Allied casualty, they said. '(The Admiralty originally an-! nounced yesterday that two destroyers and four merchantmen of a Tunisia-bound convoy were sunk.' Allied Headquarters in North Africa in a later report gave the Axis losses as three destroyers and four merchantmen, at least two of which ! appeared to be troopships. Thc Admiralty said it accepted the later, larger figure as correct. (While the operation was carried out without a casualty, the British force was attacked later from the air during Its return to base and the j destroyer Quentin was sunk.)

MUNRO Anoclated Pren Staff Writer WITH U. S. NIAVAL FORCES AT CASABLANCA, Nov. 16 (pe layed) (AP)—Submarines torpedoed and sank five United States transports after the Initial landing operations along the North African coast, but loss of life was low as the troops hid left the shipi. Three other transports, a destroyer and a tanker were damaged. (The Navy announced in Washington Thursday the loss of the transports but this was the flnt word that Ihe troops had moved off safely beforehand.) Smouldering wrecks and capsiz ed naval craft and merchant ships are to be seen everywhere In this cluttered porl, which the French defended bravely but unsuccessfully. The American shelling and bombings were so accurate that casual- tics and destruction outside the har. bor area were almost nil. Of eight ships which sallied from the harbor to fight us, all but one were sunk or damnged. The sloop Grandiere escaped after laying down a smokescreen and dashing into porl. The destroyers Brestoi* Boulonnais, Frondeur and FoTurgcux went down before U.S. guns outside the harbor, their colors flying to the last. The fast cruiser Primauget was severely damaged, burned out and beached, as were the destroyer leaders Albatros and Milan. The powerful but unfinished battleship Jean Bart, 35,000 ions, was found to be damaged but still capable of firing. Her four 15-inch guns will make an excellent shore battery. Two other warships, the destroyer leader Milan and the destroyer L'Alcyon were damaged in the harbor. The destroyers Tempete and Simoun likewise were unable to fight because they had been laid up earlier by collission damage. Among a dozen-odd merchant ships sunk or damaged in the harbor were the passenger liner Por- thos, 12,629 tons; the Llpari, 9954 tons; the He De Ouessant, 6187 ton; and the San Blaise. At least a dozen fine merchantmen Were untouched. There was not the loss of a lingle American ship in achieving this ;n- itial victory. It was laier than the submarines sank the transports unloading in the open roadstead off Dedhala. NELSON DAILY NEWS. SATURDAY, DIC. 5, 1942-8 Freeman Furniture Co.

Ohl, Dec 4 fCPi - Fliers from Canada. Great Britain, Australia and thc United Slates took part todiy in a Wlnps parade al Nn. 0 Service Flying Training School. Graduates included Cpl Harold Heber Ollli of Trail. Prosecution evidence was completed Friday in the preliminary hearing of H. T. Hartin, former Kaslo Clerk, on a charge of theft of $19,472.92 from the City of Kaslo, over a period of 10 years. Mr. Hartin reserved his defence. His Worship John Cartmel, presiding, adjourned the hearing until Monday. After prosecution evidence had been completed C. B. Garland, acting for Mr. Hartin, argued briefly that the prosecution had failed to produce evidence of criminal intent. as required finder the charge. Mr. Hartin's books, he held failed to disclose the actual condition of Kaslo's cash and while the evidence showed "a bookkeeping mess.'" he contended, "there is no evidence whatever of intent." DAWSON ARQUE8 INTENT SHOWN E. P. Dawson, of Brown Ji Dawson for the crown argued that sufficient intent was shown in that Mr. Hartin as Kaslo Treasurer had the charge of the funds of the municipality from 1932 to 1912, and at the end of that time the funds were short. Mr. Hartin had given no explanation of how the shortage occurred and this also showed intent, Mr. Dawson argued. The difference between the figures obtained by G. T. Meredith, Auditor, on making up a new set of books, and the figures in Mr. Har- tin's books, in his opinion indicated Mr. Hartin must have had knowledge of the shortage. But he had done nothing to show a shortage and, Mr. Dawson argued, thia disclosed intent. His Worship commented there were "large sums involved" and some explaining to be done." A. Vande Casteyen, present Muni- i. clpal Clerk at Kaslo, who ln MM1 took over from A. L. MacPhee; o»s temporary clerk after Mr, Harfln'i. suspension, identified an agreement held In City of Kaslo files unijer which Mr. Hartin placed property in the hands of Herbert ExtBf, .as Trustee, to secure payments to the.

Now we have another would-be royalty angling for Allied friendship and a possible throne, Austria, which was gobbled bloodlessly by Germany, being the country concerned. It is not surprising to learn that Britain will take no official action in support of Archduke Otto's bid for the Austrian throne. Even his insinuating offer to raise an Austrian Legion in the United States to fight the Nazis does not avail as a bribe. The British Government is not to be beguiled into fighting the battles of petty princelings. What happens to Austria after the war is a matter to be settled later by the people of that counry. The objectives of the United Nations include the establishment of free governments for all nations which prove themselves fit and able to govern themselves. This goes for India and for every other country either participating in the war, or a victim of the Axis. Open tl inV nadir. Nimei it pinem uklng quntleni will net be publlihed.

Mahogany furniture should be washed either with cold tea or with vinegar . and water. For the plain pieces, use a soft flannel or sponge; for any carved or ornamental parta use a soft brush. Dry, then apply polish with a flannel or wft cotton pad, Rub lt well Into the wood but do not use too much. Rub off with a soft duster and pollih with a lecond duiter or chimols leather. Highly pollihed furniture ihould be waihed with methylated iplrlU and waUr. Put two tible- spoonfuli pf methylated spirits Into two cups of warm water, wring a small sponge out of this and wash the furniture all over. Dry and polish with a chimoli leather. No further treatment should be necessary. Wil Some Be Missed? Some 307 Christmas parcels—with the traditional cake as the first of eight items—for service men or service women from Nelson who are serving outside Canada, were committed to the mails by the Nelson Women's Auxiliary to the Active Forces up to the end of November. Mailing of another 200 or more parcels—minus only the Christmas cake—to those serving or training in Canada, will be begun this week. Yet the Auxiliary estimates that roughly 100 servicemen from this area will fail to get parcels from it, for lack of 'r.ie addresses so often requested. .This number will include many whol were provided parcels last year, but whose current whereabouts are unknown. It will also include many who sent'back no word after enlistment. It is a pity that this should have to happen. It is a pitty that any service man. who.went from this locality, even with, only the slenderest ties remaining with it, Rhould possibly have cause to feel [lonely and forgotten, this Christmas) But there will be few who are not keeping in touch with at least one friend left behind. It is up to that one friend to provide the address that will direct a Christmas parcel to a lonely service man, perhaps far distant from any familiar scene.' Test Yourself 1.

An Investigation of the matter ls iaid to have revealed that only 5 per cent ol spinsters have never had a proposal of marriage. The majority of unmarried women it ls alleged are that way because they have never received a proposal of marriage from the type of male they considered the right man for them to marry.

Miss Hudlin is the fint one "n". An I ever heard of.—Many women who weigh from 110 to 115 pounds should weigh 140 pounds to be healthy. However, they do not want to weigh 140 pounds because then they couldn't have that school girl figure. A woman who Is 25 to 30 pounds under her right weight ls usually nervous, easily Irritated ind subject to many minor ills. Such 1 woman, when married, ls likely to make her husband uncomfortable, and unr happy. Every husband should ascertain what his wife's right weight should be and then insist upon her maintaining this weight. As this department hai often staled it is better for a man to have i plump wife who is cheerful than a crabby wife who ls nice-looking.

TIPS Today I had a $1.25 check and tipped the waiter a quarter. He snatched up the 25 cents, glared at me and walked away without a word. It was plainly evident he thought the two-bit tip wun't enough. If 20 per cent of a check Is not enough tip what Is? The way some people map up tlpi without even a "Thank You" makei you feel ai lt what you gave them wai some money you owed them for a couple of yein. It'i about time the tipping public organized ind decided, with the aid of representative! or people who receive tips, what constitutes i fair tip. I have alwayi felt 10 per cent of the check ls a good tip though I often go above that. DIVI BOMBERS It hn been claimed thit United States Nivy flieri originated dive bombing.

Toronto OTTAWA, Dec. 4 (CP)- Total subsidies paid through the Price Stability Corporation since Inception of the over-all price ceiling in Canada Dec. 1, 1941, are roughly $30,000,000, Hector McKinnon, Corporation Chairman announced at a Preu conference today. Mr. McKinnon made the announcement ai reporters assembled in the office of Finance Mlnlster41iley who lait night announced a program of subsidies to stabilize the cost- of-living Index. This new program, including tax revisions wi" cost $40,000,000 a year addition to previous lubsidy commitments which so far have cost $3,000,000. Mr. McKinnon said the subsidy demands had been heaviest during the last five months, due largely to increases in shipping costs on imported articlei. Subsidy payments on domestic items—including butter, leather garments, footwear, and similar Items—amounted to about $13,000,000. — Included ln the domestic subsidy payments have been allcwances to encourage butterfat production under a program announced during the Summer. Mr. McKinnon said that recently gasoline imports had required iub stantial subsidy paymenti becaus' of higher shipping costs. These pay incuts went mainly to the shippini companies engaged In transport . Canada of petroleum products. Mr. lUley said that during the la_ seaslon of the House he had ex plained the difficulty ol eatimatint what the total subsidy pavmentl over a long period might be. He had given an estimate of $90, 000,000 In a year, but had Indicateo then that the sum might rise aa higll as $100,000,000 or more. • In face of the danger of a rising spiral of inflation, the Miniiter said he had been prepared to considet paying even larger amounts to con* trol the cost of living. Donald Gordon, Prices Board Chairman said it was difficult to estimate the monthly cost of subsid* ies, tince changes were brought on by varying situations which had te be met. Mr. Gordon said about $900,000,001 had been apent on subsidies by tht United Kingdom.
