This year's municipal elecUons are on the "whole front". In cities and boroughs outside London one-third of the counciUon retire every year. But ln London memben of the 28 borough councila retire as a body every third year, and thia year they are retiring. The Labor-Socialist forces are hoping for a great success in London.

I took ordinary salts and other medicines, but their did not do any permanent good. Then I commenced taking Kruschen, I aoon began to feel dlf. ferent—brighter, stronger, had more energy, no rheumatism, and to my surprise, site* two monthi I lost 10 lbs. in weight, although I was eating much more, ai digestion tullnew bad nearly left me."—W. tt O.

Your stomach, liver, and kidneys ill feel the imme- dlite benefit Your blood ii cleansed of Impurities and becomes invigorated and refreshed. You forget Indigestion, rheumatism, and depres- sion in a new and unaccustomed feeling of physical and mental ex hilaratlon. M-the-year^round transportation is necessary ♦ ♦. Railways alone provide it Th* obligations Imposed upon * railway system ar* great Primarily, these are providing and maintaining adequate tnd reliable transportation service throughout th* whole year, regardlesi of climatic conditions or tbe costs and difficulties involved lo meeting those conditions. A railway system which operated only when . weather conditions were pleasant, or which did not guarantee the closest possible adherence to standards of safety, or which had oo regular schedule-of trains would very soon create public indignation. To ensure that these onerous requirements ar* provided by the railway companies, and alao to avoid undue advantage being taken by the companies whose services ar* • so essential to the public welfare, all railways arc subject to strict government repletion and supervision. They are by law required to carry a specified minimum number of crew on each train ... to be equipped witb efficient safety devices ... to operate according to approved schedules ... to conform to approved passenger and freight tariffs... to be subject to inspection by government officials at ail times. In addition the companies themselves impose the most rigorous tests upon their train operators and each piece of rolling stock and each mile of crack is subject to constant and careful scrutiny. Thia, ol coarse, it only as it should be. Unfortunately, however, it does not apply to all forms of commercial transportation — only to railways, which are placed at a decided disadvantage in having to compete with services operated only when th* weather permits, and at times wben operating corn are lowest Further, these unsupervised services can, and do discriminate capriciously regarding tbe natur* of th* commodities they carry, aod thc rates they charge While the railways of Canada pay approximately ten million dollars of tues each vear these other services are notoriously undertaxed.and, unlike tbe -railways which ran over their own properties, they increase tbe risk and discomforts of our already over- irded highways: A little thought will convince anyone tbat thla it unfair to tbe railways and that — tine* railways an tb* only dependable agency for the provision of all-the-year-round transportation service — it is also hostile to the public interest With winter approaching th* importance of all-the-year-round service it easily appreciated.

At least I had an opportunity of reading thc six heavy volumes which a friend from Zurich had sent me. 'The answer to the first part of your question lies in Stalin's declaration," M.

Ai to the lecond part of your question," went on Litvinoff, "we think that the league on he whole hai of late ahown a disposition to work tor peace. There are many states who do not want war. We are with theml We don't want war, either, under any circumstances!" "Doea the Soviet Union's entry mean that you have changed or modified your attitude on the subject of socialism tor other countries?" SAME SOCIALIST ATTITUDE "Not in the least," came back Litvinoff. "We are the most conservative people in the world on that point in the U.S.S.B. we pursue our old policy: build socialism. Our attitude towards capitalism remains the same. We know, I do not need to argue the point, I think, that capitalism engenders war, breeds war, because It carries the germs of war ln its own bosom with its anarchic system of production, its lawless and ruthless competition and iti inherent need to discover and conquer ever new or wider markets." "There are lome critici," I laid. "who affirm that the U.S.S.R. has come into the league solely out of fear of Japan, the fear to be conquered by Japan. Will you say anything on that point?" "That is not a very intelligent criticism, if you ask me," M. Litvinoff replied, "for do not the same critics warn the world very often that a new war Will inevitably produce new revolutions? And do they really think that we arc afraid to see a revolution occur elsewhere? No, we are neither afraid of the power you mention, nor ot a revolution in any other country. Our army is first-class, our chemical industry is perfect, our aviation Is not Md and we have plenty of men with brains who would bring an attack against us to nought and turn it into a smashing victory for the people! of the U.S.S.R. Moreover, we have many friendi in thii world, very many friends. We can count on them. They will not let us down!" "You mean the working-clan organization! of the various countries?" FERVENT DESIRE FOR PEACE "Precisely. They and the intellectuals," he retorted. "You must not forget," he went on, "that thc U.S.S.R. represents an immense power, extending over two continents and has a population ot 180 million souls, with an annual increase of three milions. Our people are animated by a will of steel to maintain peace. We will leave nothing untried, literally nothing, to prevent the ghastly catastrophe which is, alas, in preparation. Thii hai been realized by an increasing number of statemen and that is why we were invited to join the league, to help in the preservation of peace. I draw your attention to the attitude ol certain powers, who have withdrawn from the league precisely at the moment when the peace of the world is so gravely menaced, and I ask you in all sincerity to contrast their attitude with that of the U.S.S.R. which joins the league right now when it knows the cause of peace il seriously compromiied." , "M.

In the more settled districts a house-to-house canvass is being made. It commenced Monday, October 15 and will end Saturday, October 20. At that'time preliminary lists will be closed. There will be a copy made of each polling division or sub-division. This will be placed outside the place where revision for that division will be held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 13th, Mth, and 15th of November respectively, at which times any corrections, changes or additions may be made.

"It would be." laid Litvinoff, "if we did not believe that a new war would plunge the whole of mankind into tuch atrocious suffering that we will leave no effort untried to prevent it. We know who would be the heaviest sufferers in a war as they always have been, namely Ihe workera." THINKING OF WORKERS "It is therefore your concern for the workers of the world that animate! you in your drive for peace' "Yes, and our deiire to work out our own destiny unhampered. I do not hide that a war would seriously interfere with our Socialist program. We do not like manufat- turing armamenta and turning our industry into such a crazy and inhuman direction. We regret that we must waste time and treasures on guns and tanks and bombing planei and we are ready any day, any hour, to scrap our whole army, send every man home and destroy all our war material the moment others .agree to do so at the same time." "You made that proposal once or twice at thc disarmament conference, didn't you?" "Yes, but it was rejected. It was considered unpractical," he shrugged his shoulders. . . .

"We have diplomatic relations with mtyiy countries and nowhere do we engage in propaganda or interfere in the slightest in the affalra of the countries. The proof is that we are there, in England, America, Germany, Poland, Italy, the Scandinavian countries, China, Japan, Turkey and many others. Our propaganda, our only propaganda, is the existence of the U.S.S.R. where we build a new world, a better world, a decent human world. The further we get on the way the more the attacks against us multiply. If we were nothing, if we were just muddlers, the capitalists could laugh at us and retain their peace of mind. But we are a great big something, something that has never before been in thii world. That worries them. And we are growing every day. We don't mind their attacki though.

P. for Electric Lights at the Depot R. CRESTON, B.C., Oct. 17-The depression at present prevailing appears to have spread into the realm of board ot trade activities and was reflected in the deliberations of the local board which met in October aeiiion, with President W. L. Bell in the chair, and the even dozen members in attendance. Although no meetings have been held since June the accumulated correspondence totalled two letters. One of these wai trom the Ladies auxiliary to the Legion asking the board to purchase iti Armistice day wreath from that organization, and thli will be done. The other communication was from the CP.R. divisional superintendent, respectfully reporting that the company cannot see iti way clear to put elec* trie light into the Creston depot and along the platform. The compel/•, however, will be reminded that Creston depot is one of the best revenue producers on the Crows Nest division and that its present dingy appearance is not in keeping with the profitable business transacted there. The municipal committee, headed by Jamei Cook, reported the hydrants and fire fighting equipment generally had been put in good shape. For the hospital committee Charles Murrell reported progress. The chief discussion of the evening'had to do with parking on Canyon street, more particularly between Victoria and Barton avenues, and chiefly as to the three busses which adorn that section ot the'highway for about an hour each afternoon. The council has been judiciously endeavoring to remedy matters in this connection but so far without much success. The matter was finally disposed of by a motion, "That the secretary write the commissioners of thc village thanking them for their effort! to improve parking in the village and assuring them of the board 1 support in their endeavor to improve the situation." INSTITUTE MEETS The October meeting of Creston and District Women's institute was held at the home of Mrs. Mallandalne. The president, Mrs. H. W. McLaren, was in charge, and 14 members and two visitors were present. Mrs. W. H. Crawford reported tor the hospitals committee, and it was decided to purchase lumber and have a wardrobe built for the W.I. ward. The wardrobe will be painted as well ns some of the furniture which doei not match the dresser, and 10 on. The work will be taken in charge by the hospital committee. The president reported visiting several ladies and consented to act a! visiting committee for another four weeks. Mrs. F. C. Rodgers, for the memorial committee, jpoke of flowers for Armistice day. Thii was left over to the November meeting when final plans will be made. Committees were appointed to handle a bridge party In the parish hall. Due to bemg called out on professional duty Dr. Oliver wai unable to attend and give a health talk ai had been arranged. Roll call wai answered by member! giving a favorite recipe.

CRESTON, Oct 17.-There wai a good attendance of directors at the October meeting of the executive of Creston Valley Hospital association with president F. V. Staples in the chair. A letter advising of the gift of a parlor rug, and expreialng keen appreciation of services rendered two years ago, wai read from Jamei Anderson of Vancouver. A letter was also read from Canyon Hospi tai Women's auxiliary advising ot a gift of a dresser for Nurse Downes' room, and rocking chairs for the public ward!. Thli furniture has arrived and fills a long felt want. The secretary's report showed a further decline in hospital days: from 271 in August to 204 in September, while cash revenue and book earnings also ihowed a falling off. In comparison to the returns of other years it is apparent thli revenue decline hi largely seasonal. As some indication* of the general increase in hospital buslnen tt is noted that cash revenue for September is over five times the cash revenue tor the same month In 1933. During the month a good deal of produce was received from patients. IMPROVEMENTS MADE Charlea Murrell, reported on the work done both outside and Inside the building under his personal supervision. A large amount ot tile was laid laterally, and gravel dumped to facilitate drainage. From the basement considerable yardage was excavated and the recently purchased boiler was aet on a concrete foundation below floor level. A concrete wall was built around that part of the chimney which ■ .as left exposed by the excavation, and room has been made for a larger coal bin. In spite of the busy season the greater part of this work was done by former patients, with consequent' saving of cash outlay to the hospital. G. Sinclair, reporting for the house committee, mentioned that among other Improvements made, a dark room had been equipped so that films may now be finished in the building and handed over to the doctors with lew deliy. Miss Downes, as a result of recent itudy, il now qualified to Uke and develop films ln the abeence of the doctor. Another part of the basement hu been partitioned off and is equipped ai a secretary's office. TO SECURE MEMBERS Charlei Murrell reported for the membership committee, and detailed progress made with the preliminary work. It is planned to sell membership ticket! far and wide and by this means aid the hoipital, ai hai been done ln other centers. This membenhip will differ from others in that the prize for the holder of the lucky ticket wlll be 10 acres of land now being dyked, or $750, the purchase price, in lieu of the land. Since the purchaae price will be donated the percentage of receipts accruing to the hospital will be larger than the percentage to hospitals in similar drives elsewhere. The thanki of the board wai accorded Jamei Andenon, for hi! gift of a rug; to the Canyon W.H.A., for dresser and easy chairs; Creaton Co-Operatlve Fruit Exchange, Christ Church, Canyon United Church for fruit and vegetables, and Mrs. Jas.

Known to hii family and Intimate friendi is "Bill," the popular name he received from teammatei of the varloui iporti In which he participated wu "Granny." "Granny" itarted out on his sport career during hii ichool age playing in ichool loccer, football and la- crone. In 1M7, when artificial ice equipment wu tint installed in tha rink, he became a member of Trail's fint organized Junior squad and the following winter he made the junior rep team, playing right wing. WITH CHAMPIONS The Maple Leaf hockey team, of which "Granny" was a member, won the city championship in 1931-32. In 1032-33 thi team won the Wt>. Kootenay championship, defeating Nelson and Grand Forks, but lost to Klmberley for the Eut and West Kooteniy title. Granny wu also an active participant in the Smelter hockey leagues. In basketball Granny belonged to a team known u the Pirates some yeirs ago, and played with the Elks when the team won the city league. The same year he accompanied the team to Kelowna and was the star player of the game. "Granny wu an able stick hindler of the Trail laprosse team when thii sport wu organized. Only thli yeir he played for a Trail representative team in Pullman, Wash., on Labor day. His name has appeared on the rosters of miny soccer teams. Starting in the schools he climbed up to Maple Leafs, Hornets, Thistles and leveral othen. Several times he mide the city senior representative team and played center half. During the bueball seasons of 1932-33 Granny was on the Trail lenior baseball club and usually played ln the outfield. This year he played shortstop for the Trail Indians, an intermediate aggregation. He had the pleasure ot being with the Indians when they defeated the Trail senior squad at the end of the ball season. GOOD DIVER Frequenten of the Jubilee swimming pool are all acquainted with "Granny." He always participated In water sports when they were held in Trail, fancy diving being his favorite. On several occuions he has dived from the top of thc Memorial hall into the pool. Ever since senior rugby was first initituted In Trail, "Granny" was on the lineup. "Granny" was the only ion of Mrs. Sarah Young, Eldorado street. Linlithgow, Scotland, was his birthplace, but ht came to Trail at an early age. The family did not Uke up permanent residence here at that time, however, reluming to the city in 1918 to remain. At the age of 15, he entered the employ of the Consolidated and has worked there consistently until shortly before his death. LEAVES MANY FRIENDS He leaves many friends, particularly among the younger set and athletic participants and followers.

LIBERALS (Continued from Rage Om) tion for their applause and dls missal. It reminded her of a hang ing, she added humorously, as it wai the custom to give the doomed pei- son a meel before the final deed. It wai a good convention and ihe thought that the one voter who had swung such a gathering wu indeed a powerful penon. Every penon ahould now join in making a campaign. The convention wu marked by the pretence of Major S. F. M. Moodie, provincial Liberal organ lier; Dr. Allan Harrii, M.P.P. ot South Okanagan; R. R. Burns, M.L.A. for Trail-Rossland and C. S. Leary, M.L.A. for Kaslo-Slocan. W. Roy Hunter wu appointed chairman of the convention. WUUam Stubbs of Nelion In nominating D. D. McLean characterised him as a "square shooter" and one who would be an aaaet to the rid* Ing. He had known him for 20 yean ind had every confidence ln him. Hon. Bull Aylmer of Queens Biy seconded tha nomination. He stated that Liberalism wai on the upiwlng and that at the laat election even the Angel Gabriel In Liberal garb would have been defeated. STEWART NOMINATES Donald MacDonald of TraU was nominated by Sam Stewart, alao of Trail. He stated he had known Mr. MacDonald for 20 yaara and be wai a man who was greatly Intereited ln the riding. Mr. MacDonald, he stated, had made a success ot hit own,business and would handle the affairs of the constituency with the same efficient treatment. William Rutherford of Nelion, in seconding it, thought he ought to introduce himself as he had only been around Nelson for 35 yean. He declared Mr. McLean to be the 13t man for nomination. lsARY WITHDRAWS Although C. S. Leary, M.P.P. Kaslo-Slocan, wai nominated by H. Kershaw and the nomination wu duly leconded by Frank Rushton, he withdrew his nomination. Mr. Leary itated that he had reiponsi- bilitici to hii riding and in view ot that he would not let his name stand. MRS. MILLS NOMINATED Mrs. W. G. Mills in nominating Mn. R. L. Oliver, spoke of her hard work in campaigning for Mr. McLean and staled that ihe wu fair, just and worthy of the support of every Liberal in West Kooteniy. The nomination was seconded by Mrs. J. P. Herron, both of Nelson. Called tint to speak, Mr. McLean stated the honor he felt in having his name go betore. the convention for candidate for the riding. He had been the candidate before and he tried then to carry the load of Liberalism when it was being rid- culed throughout the Dominion. He had heard rumors that he did not do so well, but he itated that he drew more votei on that occasion than any previous Liberal candidate had done in this riding, and he would ask their support for endorsement. HIS PLEDGES If he were elected he would have several things which he would work to effect. He would concentrate on putting purchuing power in the handi of the farmer and the work- min. He wai raised on a farm and he knew the trials and tribulations that went with it. Further he would coniult all in connection with affairs as he believed thlt only thus could one find a true guide and make a success of the office. He denied thit fact that because he wai a railroad man that he would not tight agalnit the railroad. He had done that In tbe put and he would do lt again. He believed that Liberal! ihould put Liberalism Into effect; put Liberal! Into the different departments. He appealed to them for support standard bearer and stated that he believed he could win for Liberalism .MarnONALtl APPEALS Donald McDonald, In riling, stated that the big attendance at the convention waa ample proof that Liberalism wai not dead. It was in important convention and the tit*- gates hid l responsible duty to perform. He had long been an ardent follower of Liberalism, at long, In fact, aa he could remember. He telt he knew what the district needed and he felt like Dan McLean that the constituency could be won. But they would have to unite to beat Esling. He stated that there had been hard times but he felt that things were again on thc upturn and if ever men were needed at the rcim who could guide a successful course, it was now. During Ihe whole of hli life he hid been a supporter for Liberalism and he had studied It. too. The best definition of Liberalism, he believed that he had ever heard, was thc one given by William Ewart Gladstone that "Liberalis was trust in people qualified by prudence" and that "Conservatism was trust of people qualified by fear." MRS. OLIVER ON PLATFORM It was an honor to be one of the first women to stahd on a Liberal platform in the Kootenays aeeking nomination for candidate as standard bearer. She stated she was a comparative stranger but that she had been a Liberal since the day she was born 53 yean ago on a farm it Portage la Prairie. She had alwayi found the tenet! of Liberals™ interesting although she was not a blind follower and wai not to be taken with tricky ideu. But to be .progressive one had to be ready to take on every policy that tended to bring good for the most people for the longest period of time and to take steps to prevent I ly influence that would tend to break up the national life of the Canadian people. She was for any program that would aggresivcly attack unemployment. Four yean had gone by and boy! and glrli were wilting for some improvement. Filhers and mothers were working to keep boys and girls in the home, and if mothers could successfully budget to do that, they could Ilso budget at the Dominion houee in national affairs. Roosevelt had spoken about the forgotten man but what about the forgotten returned man. She itated her literest in health Iniurance, unemployment iniurance and pensions. Dr. Harris, Major Moodie and R. R. Burnt spoke briefly at the conclusion of the meeting.

LONDON, Oct 17 (CP)-More than 30 entrant! are making last mlnutei preparation! for one of the greatest competitive events tha world has ever seen—a race across half the earth at a speed of around 200 miles an hour. The England to Australia air race in connection with the centenary celebrations of Victoria State, will get under way Saturday morning. Machines have been specially built for this race, which is in two classes—speed and handicap. Special squads of workmen have baen toiling day and night to bring the racers, either British or foreign, up to the highest pitch of efficiency. It is estimated a sustained speed ot 200 miles an hour is necessary for real chance ot success. Ther? la a speed prize of $50,000. TAKE-OFF AT MILDENHALL The take-off point Is Mildenhall airport, specially converted for the occasion: the destination is Fleming- ton race track at Melbourne. The distance is 11,500 miles to be flown In six stages. The stages are Mildenhall to Bagdad, 2500 miles; to Allahabad, 2300 miles; In Singapore 2210 miles; to Darwin 2034 miles; to Charlevllle 1390 miles; and to Melbourne 790 miles. The winner will probably let his plane down in Melbourne within three days after leaving England or roughly half the present record time. The European Alps, the Arabian and Indian deserts, the wild Malay Peninsula, the shark-infested Timor Sea and more desert in Australia have to be crossed. The competitors will encounter all sorts of weather. Some of the aerodromes are uncomfortably small, for the landing and take-off of the fast cralt that are entered. TRULY INTERNATIONAL The race will be truly international in character, with intrants from Great Britain, the United States, New Guinea, Holland, Den mark, Australia, New Zealand and the Irish Free State. Among noted entrants arc Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Mol lison, Wiley Post, globe-girdling aviator from the United Statea, C, W. A. Scott, British flier who has twice made the flight between England and Australia; Captain Neville Stack, another experienced longdistance flier, and Col. Roscoe Turner, American speed ace. Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith, the great Australian flier, purchased a plane but wai unable to get here from Australia in time to enter. Among the machines specially designed and built for the exacting test that will come in the race, are three "Comet" planes, one of which will be flown by the Mollisons. These beautiful racing craft have a maximum speed between 240 and 250 m.p.h. Their range in still air is 2700 miles, considerably longer than others comnig within ordinary commercial regulations which limit all entrants. Another British airplane to be flown by Captain Stack ia considerable of a dark horse" Ilka the Comet having only Just had lta first flights. It is a low-winged monoplane powered with two supercharged 300-h.p. engines. It has a speed of MO m.p.h. tnd range ot at least 2000 miles. "Look, Friends! I Have a Telephone Again!"

Unsolved Mysteries in Canada Seventh-Tragedy of Rougemont Banker and His Wife By CAMPBELL CARROLL Canadian Press Staff Writer Copyright 19M, by tha Canadian ttttt MONTREAL, Oct 17 (CP) - DOcketttod ln police record! u one of the moit brutal of unsolved Quebec crimes is the story ot the slaying of Charles Bernard, a 58-year- old bank manager, and hia wife, Sarah, at Rougemont, Que., during the night of October 23-24, 1925. The Instrument with which the crime wm committed was an axe according to the late Dr. Wilfrid Derome, noted Montreal medicolegal expert, who conducted an investigation of the crime with the provincial police. LACK OF MOTIVE BAFFLES Whkt baffled the authorities at the time of the murder wu the apparent lack of motive behind the deed. A sum ot $3(100 placed in an old aafe which could easily have bean broken open by an expert bank robber wu not touched. Bernard and his wife apparently had no enemies in the village. All strangers who had been in the neighborhood gave satisfactory ac- counta of their actions to the police. The little bank failed to open on the morning of October 24 which wu a Saturday. This and the fact Bernard had intimated to friends he might be absent for a day prevented the discovery of the double murder until Sunday. The two had been regular attendants at tht church. They were missed from high mus and neighbors decided to investigate. Their calls at the Bernard noma being unanswered three strong men burst in tha door ef the building In which the bank was also located. A horrifying scene met their gate. Bernard's body was' stretched across tha landing of stairway leading to thc second story and that ot his wife wu found on the floor of a bedroom. Both were in night ittire. HIT WITH AXE The police believed Bernard wu hit on the back of the head with tha axe and sent hurtling down the stairs while his wife wu struck down when she got out of bed at hearing the disturbance. After leveral diys of careful search the police found traces of blood leading from the Bernard house through a nearby apple orchard. Bloodhounds were procured and put in this trail. The dogs took the police to some underbrush where a .32 calibre revolver waa found. Although three cartridges had been extracted from the gun tha autopsy revealed no bullets in the bodies of the banker and his wife. The crime was committed on a stormy night Winds wert howling through the trees enough to drown any cries the victims mty htve made when attacked.

THE RISK OF QUINTUPLETS As a social and scientific wonder, the fame of the Dionne quintuplets has been world-wide and their survival—despite several set-backs—is an added cause for amazement. The birth of the Canadian quintuplets has interested even the mathematicians. A note In the "Miscellany" column of the Manchester Guardian Weekly of September 7th prints the following interesting calculations: Those who have been following the careen of the famous qulntupleti born this year in Canada may be interested in a mathematical analysis of the chances given in this weeks Lancet' "The rarity of the event,' it states, "is indicated from the figures supplied some years ago by Artruo Gunini, which have been accepted as reliable. Guzzoni's figures are twins, 1 in 87; triplets, 1 in 7,103; quadruplets, 1 in 757,000. He does not mention quintuplets.' "Instances of five and even of six at a birth have been rec- ordered," the 'Lancet' continued, "but many of the stories have not obtained proper substantiation. It ii accepted, however, that about 30 authentic cases of quintuplets are on record, though the fate of the babies is not anywhere given in detail. So the Lai- lender infants, if they survive, will have every reason.to regard themselves as rare and distinguished birds in the human aviary. It then is true that, having recovered froth their recent illness and having survived for such a long period, the Dionne children have reduced the "risk" percentage, on which the calculations of the mathematicians were made, by a wide margin. CAT AND MOUSE GAMES The depression brought varying degrees of hardship to the farming communities in almost every country in the world but the hardships endured by them through world reactions are as nothing compared to the hindrances placed on the farmers of Russia by the Soviet authorities. Almost directly after the revolution, the Russian farmers fell prey to crop-pillaging by the government. Agents sent out took whatever they wanted and the farmer got what was left. The next season many farmers planted only for their own needs. The results were widespread famine. Leglislation in one or two following seasons g»ve some protection to the fanner then again the pillaging commenced, under government order. Again there was hunger and discontent although fixed proportions only were taken, leaving the farmers to dispose of a very small remainder. Recent dispatches from Russia tell the old tale. Permission to sell surplus harvestings are to be halted until the government has taken what it wants an j now the selling is restricted to state or co-operative organizations which means less for the produce than it is worth. Special taxes arc to be placed on successful farmers which are said to be punitive in degree. What the results will be this time one hates to think when one considers that it is stated on good authority over five million persons have starved to death in Russia under this Communistic oppression of the farmers. Bureaucracy and arbitrary dictators are slow to learn a lesson. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK The success of agriculture in the Kootenays largely depends upon orderly marketing. With the passing of the Marketing Act the need for organized farmer opinion is greater, not less, than before. ■ All farmers will be well advised to strive through their organizations, to bring to a successful issue the work that has already been started. The semi-annual meeting of the West Kootenay Farmers' institute will be held at Nelson soon when marketing and other farm matters will come up for discussion.

FISHER BY JAMES W.BARTON, M.D. One of thc thing! most of us forget is that when man was created lt was meant (hot he should be on his leet most of Uie time and when .not on his feet he should be lying down. What do we find? While many occupations require standing on the feet, a great many, whether in office or workshop, permit sitting down and Nature didn't Intend this to bf the case. What happens when we sit down? The body relaxes, which of course Is good for it, but the shoulders fall forward and the heart and lungs are crowded so that the pumping of the blood and the purifying of the blood are both interfered with to just the extent we allow our shoulders to fall forward. Now while Nature meant that we atand on our feet or lie down lf all the organs of the body are to do their work properly, our civlllza** tion demands that many of us sit most of the time. This means then that if we have to sit, we should try to sit In a poaition where we will crowd heart. tlungs, and abdominal organs as little as possible. The best way to sit to 'avoid crowding the organs is with the chest held high. A simple way to attain this high position of the chest is to sit as tall as possible just as when on your feet you should try to stand as tall as possible. The imall of the back should be supported by the chair, both feet should always be flat or square on the floor; thc chair seat should be wide enough to support about two- thirds the length of the thighi. There are various adjustable chairs obtainable now and for the individual whose work keeps him sitting all day, a chair adjusted to his particular length of body and length of leg! may mean the difference between indigestion with poor circulation and a good digestion with good circulation. Often a poor or "slouchy" position sitting is due to poor light, or the light coming from the wrong direction. This of course should be corrected. The thought then Is that as we must sit down so much of the time, we should try to think of the one most helpful Idea; that is to "sit tall." WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING COURTE8Y Making reference to the death ot a notable public man it was said of him that he will be remembered for his unfailing courtesy. That feature was stressed and that is as it should be. There Is nothing as fine as unfailing courtesy whether it be ln man or woman. It smooths the pathway of life and make! contacts with our fellows much more pleasant. No matter what the business may he, courtesy is a great factor in bringing it to success. But courtesy must be something innate, not forced, the outward expression of an inward state of mind—The Niagara Falls Review. THE PROPOSED ONTARIO CODE A bigger Job than they luspect probably lies ahead of them. But it ought to be a beneficial one for the ministers. They may even come to realize that minimum wage laws (assuming they can be applied in "each individual industry, which is a large assumption) are no cure for wage slavery.—Ottawa Citizen. British Scientists Seek Real Spook LONDON—The age-old endeavor to find « tangible, real dyed-ln-the-wool "spook" is to be undertaken by a committee of distinguished scientists, philosophers and psychologists of tbe University of London which has been formed to investigate psychical phenomena. This new committee, consisting of 12 members, will take over the work of the National Laboratory of Psychical research, but lt wlll not, however, be officially connected with the university. Among the various "phenomenia" to be Investigated will be included telepathy, clairvoyance, automatic writing, psychometry (supernormal knowledge of tha past history or associations of objects bandied by a medium), poltergeists and other alleged mental and physical manifestations produced by so-called mediums. Foreign correspondents tor the committee, representing the United States, British Dominions and several other European countries, are to be chosen to aid In the gathering of data for the study. Tbe committee hopes to receive tba aid ot tbe general public ln obtaining data tor tbe Investigations, members explaining that only with such cooperation will lt be possible to elucidate those ; mysteries of the seance room which for nearly a century have been studied under tha term "psychical research." Tha depreaslon which foUowed the collapse of prlcea in 1020 has never really lifted ln Engltnd. There wu some appearance of a rlae up in 1924 but ln 1029 England re-established a post-war gold standard on the basis ot the pre-war gold pound, and therehy not only fettered herself, but as it waa eventually to prove, fettered the world. There is no blame to be apportioned for this. At least 95 per cent of all men's actions are motivated by the best intentions according to their lights, and the greatest part ot the evil of this worm results from tha irreconcilable aims ot the best intentions rather than from malice aforethought. The powers that were, thought they were doing all for the best when they put the pound iter- ling on a pre-war gold footing and tried to hold lt there. England, however, had a huge burden of debt aa a remit of the war, and waa endeavoring to carry it with an equally heavy burden of taxation, which necessarily made its weight felt throughout the entire national economy. When she returned to the pre-war gold pound, she waa, in effect, valuing aU her products and her service! at their pre-war weight in gold, and was inviting her customers to help carry thc burden of taxation which waa loaded onto her costs. It is not surprising that they did not respond heartily to that Invitation because they could buy what they wanted much cheaper from nations that were dodging taxation, or postponing it, or from others who had no burden at all. But in returning to the pre-war gold pound, England became an extraordinarily good country to sell to, because, quite apart from having next to no customs tariff, aha was prepared to pay in pre-war gold pounds of the exact equivalent ot the pre-war gold dollar, for all goods that the English could be induced to buy. Thui there were set up ilmultane- ouily an Increasing pressure to sell to England and an increasing reluctance to buy from her. It ll clear, however, Uut as she sold less and lets, ihe waa able to buy leas. But the terrific weight of excessive indebtedness under which the world waa suffering did not decline as England's buying power declined; on the contrary, relatively to the total business passing, it Increased. And its fccrease intensified the world's need to sell, because Interest in that Indebtedness was absorbing an ever growing proportion of the world'i money turnover. The intensified need to lell to England coinciding with the decline ln her buying power forced down selling prices. And because England was the world's biggest buyer, what she could pay set the pace for all International prices. In these varying pressures and proportionate movement! act up between excessive world indebtedness on the one hand and the revaluation of the world's principal trading currency at its prewar gold weight on the other, we have the real cause of the fall in the world price-level. One need not recall how powerfully that fall, begun in 1926, contributed to the disasters which came upon the world after 1929, nor to point out how desperately in need of a rise i nthe price-level, tlfe world still stands. LARGEST BUYER , ( Categorically, the world level of International prices ultimately depends on what the greatest purchasing nation can afford to pay, and that as long as England remains the greatest buyer of commodities in the world, the international price- level will be ultimately dominated by the economic situation -in that country, all currency stabilization schemes and gold standard theories to the contrary, notwithstanding. When England went off the gold standard in 1931, she experienced Immediate relief. In 1932 she bought more foodstulfs by volume than she did in 1931 and paid lesi for them in sterling than she did when on gold. Canada, for example, shipped 131 million bushels of wheat to England for $106 million in 1931, while in 1932 ahe shipped 110 million bushels for (65 million. The difference between the average price in dollars in the two yeara corresponds roughly to the difference in sterling exchange. The greatest proportion of the rise in the prices of primary producta which has taken place in Canada and the United States since '.he latter went off the gold standard in April, 1933, is due to the fact that the sterling world price now means more dollars and centa than It did before. The internal improvement that has taken place in Canada during the last twelve months is due more to this factor and to the simultaneous disappearance of the exchange premium on interest payable to the united States than io anything else. The exports of Great Britain for the firat seven months of this year were about equal to those of the United States, but her imports were nearly double the value of those of the great republic, and her combined external trade turnover was more than one-third more than that ot the U.S.A. Great Britain'a Imports for this period were more than 10 per cent higher In value than those for the corresponding period • of 1933, Now the situation ln England, with the National Debt held steady and the budget In balance, Is such that any rise in the annual money turnover ot the country Is certain to result ln a surplus in the national accounts, owing to the high scale of taxation. Such a surplus has already led to a reduction of income tax this year by 10 per cent or sixpence in the pound and a further reduction has been hinted at by one of the ministers quite recently. Successive reductions of this high taxation will lead to further rises in the annual money turnover, and further budget surpluses. With every reduction of taxation, the heavy costs loaded onto English manufactured products are lightened, their selling capacity is thereby increased, while at the same time the buying capacity of the entire nation is lncreaaed also. Aa the buying capacity of Great Britain increases, Uie International price-level in sterling will rise also. As this price-level niei, the situation of all primary producing debtor nations is to that extent relieved, their annual money turnover la Increased, and the weight of their Internal taxaUon relaUvely reduced. The buying power of these nations with the reducUon of English manufacturing costa, and both imports and exports of these countries trading with England are thereby facilitated and increased. None of these movements can ap ply. however, to any of the countries still adhering to thc pre-depression gold standard. Their altuatlon muat tend to grow more and more Isolated aa the riling tide ot trterling trade now under way, increaaes. Economic nationalism, of which we hear ao much la only a temporary phase. It wts forced upon the debtor nations by the disparity between their external indebtness and their lowered' annual money turnover cauaed by the deflated International price-level. As the price- level rises, and with it the world's money turnover ln international trade, the improved internal equilibrium within the debtor countries will cause the passing away ot so-called economic nationalism ln its extreme form. The British Government has repeatedly declared tta intention of refusing to consider a return to a gold standard until prices and costs are much more nearly in adjustment than they are at present, and in view of the tendencies herein indicated there is no doubt lt is right The phrt'eal import quotas of agricultural produce which are causing heart-burning in certain of the Dominions, and the Empire's family quarrels about tariff details will fade ln importance aa the stream of sterling trade rises. As the situation within Great Britain improvea, the restrictions upon external loans are being relaxed in favour of the Dominions and ot those countries which have elected to follow the destiny ot sterling, and theae loans will constitute a powerful contributory to the total volume of sterling trade. In spite of all the difficulties being experienced in many parte of the world, the general economic movement ia definitely upward, and the primary impetus Is being derived from the economic situation in Great Britain, from which alone can come that rise ln the international price-level which is so sorely needed.

DEMAND IS GOOD HOTHOUSE TOMS Expect Shortage in Oranges; Prices Advance Hothouse tomatoes are now on the wholeiale market from the coast and are meeting with ready Mies. Already two price advancei have been made. Business caried slightly during the past few weeks, the demand for meat being slack while vegetables and fruit sale! held up exceptionally well. Orange prices have dipped sharply and there is likely to ne an acute famine in this fruit. The Valentia crop, which last year ran into January, is likely to be cleaned up within the next day dayi and the new navel crop will not be ready for some time. Applea and other fruits are enjoying good demand. There has been little change in meat or egg prices during the past two weeks. Fresh eggs are now completely off and storage eggs are moving freely.

WOULD ABOLISH 'BARNSTORMING' CHICAGO, Oct. 17 (AP). - An absolute ban on all barnstorming by major league baseball players was advocated today by President Will Harridge of the American league.

Citing a series of recent mishspi —Jimmie Foxx'i injury thit may ruin his career; the unpleasantness at Milwaukee when irate fans stormed the box office demanding their money back because the Dean brothers failed to pitch as many innings as advertised, and the soreness of Paul Dean'i arm that may affect his pitching next yeaf—President Harridge said the only thing to do was to prohibit barnstorming altogether.

Apart from a mild upheaval In Saskatchewan where the ebb tnd flow of hockey talent took on Its greatest revival, the annual roster- shuttle produced no last-minute stampedes. No transfers were reported from the Ptclfle provinoe. Wrinkles were most pronounced on the brows of Stskttchewin offlcltlt where tpplicationa reached wholesale proportions. The first string line of one southern club was wrecked and others weakened with the admission ot North Battleford to membership In the northern league. Moose Jaw contributed Davey Du- chak. Ken Davla, goalie, Vic Myles, and Cally McCalmon, members of last year'a Crescents tnd Cam Burke, a former Falcon. Bill Ollhooley, Reglnt Aoes, Elmer Piper, Saskatoon Bites, tnd three Kerrobert lnter- mewdlates, Cltrence ShlUlngton, Joe Schwab ind Eddie O'Keefe completed the roster of the re-organised Beavers. The exodus trom Saskatoon started last spring with departure of Jim Dewey tnd Art Silver, shifty Quakers' forwards, and Ron Silver, of Vanity, tor Sudbury.

DEAN BOYS ARE AB0UTALL1N" By EDWARD J. NIIL Otioclated Preu Sports V'rltir) NBW YORK, Oct. 17 (AP) .-Thole Dean boyi, who are about as silly as a certified check, have finally broken under the strain of the parade of triumph. "Boy," sighed big Din weakly today as he swept into Manhattan with Li'l Brother Paul, "If we wasn't dizzy, we sure dre in a whirlwind now!" They've been on a dead run ever since they conquered Detroit Tigers four times in the world series and rocketed into such fame that noth ing would do but they tour the land pitching in exhibition ball games. And are they weary! Paul has a sore arm and a doctor in Philadelphia told him he mustn't throw a ball for two months. Dizzy ii weary right down to hli loul. "When tnii li over," he slid, "Ah'm goln' down to Bradenton, Florida, and lock every durn door in mah house. They're goln' to have to shove mah filh into me through a stove pipe."

Well, the aecond try found him free from worry over the outcome, probably full of confidence and certainly relaxed.

Only hii handlers and a few stragglers off the boardwalk stand beside the ring and watch the forgotten one go through hli paces. Hii name ii Prlmo Carnera—remember it? Five monthi ago he wai heavyweight chimpion of the world. Hli every move was recanted in the newspapers, people trailed him in the street!, he had friendi in legion, he wu the na- tlonil hero of his native Italy and the idol of Manhattan'i Italian lection.

Hii manager, Louis Sereil, left last week to arranged for the bouts. The former champion, still a hero in Latin-America, will rate $30,000 for the tint bout In Buenos Aires. Carnera has hii dreams of a comeback, but along bqxlng row any mention of Carnera ii greeted with a protracted silence. Plana for the winter and spring huvy- weight campaign are being formulated by promoter!, and Carnera ia not Included.

She hadn't ordered anything. What could it be? A boy came with a long florist's box. Probably from Hickory Ferguson. He was sweet to send flowers in addition to the gorgeous box of candy and fruit he hed bought as a parting gift before returning to Rolla. Yellow roses. That deep yellow so bird to get. Beauties. Dozens, it seemed. She broke the seal of the white envelope and gasped in surprise. "Mr. Philip Sheridan." she read. He had wired them from Palm Beach. How thrilling! Imagine, thinking of her, when he must be having a wonderful time with lots of fascinating people! That was a real tribute, and she cherished it. her favorite flowers—how did lie know? Not even Bruce had discovered that. He sent her orchids and violets, sometimes gardenias. but never yellow roses. There waa something glad and warm ln her thoughts of Phil, always. Probably because they had never known Borrow or disappointment together. She could enjoy his friendship without an ache inside. Wednesday afternoon. June would have been dilighted if she could have hid in some of the rooms and seen the reception of Grady'a notices about the Gilmore'i dinner-hour club. A dliconsolate boy from Australia aat on the side of hli bed, trying manfully to down the homesickness that beiet him. A printed ilip of blue paper was shoved under his door. Mechanically he reached down and picked it up. He read: ARE YOU GOING TO DINE ALONE THIS EVENING? We want out guests to be happy, and for the special pleasure of those who may be in New York alone, and unacquainted, we have inaugurated a unique feature— The "BETWEEN SIX AND SEVEN CLUB" Miss June Varick of Rolla, Missouri, President.

A school teacher from Mississippi spattered the blue slip with tears Before she started eagerly to dress. A salesman from St. Louis reacted to it as a clever slunt. and decided to go down and investigate. The widower across the hall from him. who had moved in from Forest Hills, after hli bereavement, to escape loneliness, laid out a white shirt and put pomade on his hair before he went to meet Miss June Varick, of Rolla, Missouri, ln the elevator he eyed the trim figure of a girl from Helem, Montana, who had a job in.an engineering office, and hadn't met a soul in the six months ■he had been in New York. Neither of them knew, of courie, that they were deitined to be introduced by the president of the Between Six and Seven Club, and be married before the summer ended. June, in a tailered brown dress and amber beads, looked exactly like a girl from home, reminding each and every one of home and wholesome living. She said, "How-do-you-do? I'm glad to eee you. I hope you'll like tu and have a grand time," exactly is if ihe were giving a party. And ah« put all at, their ease. The atmosphere was unstrained. People reacted naturally to the innovation. and talked together as if they were fellow townsfolk "Sounds like a convention, " Hartley Hart told June as he and Lucy came in. "I think it's grand," Lucy declared. "I want to meet thlt nice boy over there by the fireplace." She had selected the one from Aus- tralir*. "Ir'.rodoce Luc;*." Hartley said. "I'll lake thr p'ondie Cuming in." "Do. She looks scared to ii ■">.*' People drifted to tables after a bit. and June observed that no one ate alone. The Harts had a table wilh the Australian boy and the reared blonde. They seemed to be having a very good time. Linder came In and was pleased. "It's a good beginning." he declared. "Flv the end of Ihe week the crowd will pick up, I'm sure. Makes me think of Sunday morning after church in Penobseott." "You mean a box parly in the f-hoolhoiise." "I stand corrected. Now. I wonder lf 1 could gel a portion of that Missouri fried chicken and hot biscuits riehl out of the oven"" Two of Grady's publicity stories during the week, wilh June's picture, helped Increase the patronage. She was Immediately Identified with the Bishop case, and a number of outsiders came through curiosilv. Saturday night there wss a capacity crowd. June went to bed very tired and a little sad. The Harts were gone, and she would miss them a great deal. A letter from Bruce came up with her breakfast tray in the morning. Noncommital. He had avoided discovery on the voyage. Had a good rest.

"Nolhinf In lhal lo make a -girl hyitertcal with hope," she thought Member ot the Canadian Dally Newspapers Aisociition TELEPHONE 144 Private Exchinge connecting to all Departmenti for an angry second. Then, as quickly, "Dear Bruce—I love him io much. . . ." June was an immediate success as president of the Between Six and Seven Club. Everybody liked her. During the day many sought her acquaintance, and some her advice. Linder had to give her an office where she could interview people for an hour or two in the afternoon. Without effort, and with natural ability, it seemed, she took over the reins of social hostess for the hotel, extending her activities in many directions besides the club. There was dancing in the Fountain Room. It was a rather nice place, June thought, with three tiers ascending from the dance floor and the orchestra back of the fountain. They had a fair dinner crowd, but were anxious to build up their supper patronage. Centrally located, they should draw from the theaters. Grady said they were musing a bet by not having June up there, In evening dress. She was so beautiful and delighlfuly naive, he pointed out, that she would be a hit —something new to New York. Linder nent for her. "Grady thinks yr/li ought to act as hostess in the Fountain Room for the theater crowd. What do you think about it?" • "I don't see a good reason for It." "Some of the nicest things in life are without rhyme or reason—did you ever think of that? Now. I'm looking at it from the other person's point of view—If I'd been to the theater, for instance, and decided to f[o to the Gilmore Hotel, with my ady friend, to sup and dance in the Fountain Room—and, when I showed up at the entrance, if a beautiful girl with a- drawly voice and a radiant smile said how-do-you-do, come in and have a good time—well do you know I think I'd like it—and I'd remember the place—io I'd be almost certain to go back. Or. perhaps, if I lost out on the greeting, but sometime during the evening this beautiful girl would stoop at my table and ask me if 1 was having a good time, I'd go away with happier memories...." "That's all r(ght for your side of it, Mr. Linder. But suppose the girl who was with you didn't react ,in the same way." "Now let's not be too analytical. You have to take life as it comes, unless you can do something about it. Suppose you put on your most beguiling evening frock and .give the Fountain Room a whirl. U will be decidedly different, I promise, from the club, and the people who come down there." June was always good-natured, and when she saw Linder had his heart set on extending her duties along more sophisticated lines, she agreed. As for everting clothes, she was not equipped. She examined the status of her bank account, with some anxiety. Perhaps she could risk a hundred dollars. Maybe if she shopped cleverly she could get two dresses for that. She'd have to be very careful, though, for ihe wai going to be very conspicuous and nothing tawdry would do. This new adventure turned out as well as the club. She found it rather intriguing. All she had to do was to make herself as lovely as possible, and be friendly with people. She made no effort to be other than her natural self.* "Oh. sure." she'd eoncede. "I'm from Missouri, but it's been a right smart while since I've been home. No, honestly. I don't know what that 'show me' business means. I reckon the rest of the country knows more about it than we do." Perhaps she did emphasize the colloquial in her sDeech a trifle more than usual: but this was done, ss a rule, to offset some woman'! exaggerated New Yort'se. A columnist, hapenlng lo hear something of the sort one night, retailed it with colorful emnhasis. Soon, news of the girl from Missouri got about. Her popularity was accelerated, of course, by-the fact that she was high-lighted in one of the most spectacular mysteries of the year. "If the girl could only sing!" moaned Linder. "She'd be a million dollar asset." "How do you know she can't?" Grady asked. "I don't know, but I have a little common sense." "Get her in here and ask her,' "Have you got time to kill? That's what it amounts to." "Listen, I've got a hunch. I know she's not a Galli Curcl—but this Missouri business is a good gag—did you notice how it caught on? All you have to do is sic a columnist onto something of the sort, and sit back while he works for you." June came In from her office, nexl doo** lo Linder's, when he sent tor her. she bughed delightedly at Grady's preposterous queatlon.

BRAMAN (Auoclated Prase Staff Writer) LONDON, Oct 17 (AP) .-Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, Japanese delegate to trl-power naval conversations here, said flatly today tl*. Japan will demand abolition of the ratio system ot limiting naval armaments. Instead, he revealed, the island empire will seek to substitute the [ global tonnage basis. These proposals will be made to representatives of the United States and Great Britain in the course ot talks scheduled to start here next week. Yamamoto's announcement came soon after authoritative sources had disclosed that the Americans, Norman H. Davis and Rear Admiral William H. Standley, will suggest substantial reduction in general naval armaments and renewal of the Washington and London naval treaties. (Under the terms of the Washington agreement, the United Statee and Great Britain are granted naval parity, with Japan permitted three- fifths of the armamenta each hai— the so-called 5-5-3 ratio).

T' loo. loo, WASHINGTON, Oct 17 (AP).— Cordell Hull, secretary of atate, lashed out today at unnamed nation! Indulging in the "indefensible practice" of raising their tariff bar* riers just before entering International negotiations to lower them. Bringing the case down to the net* work of reciprocal trade agreements now being framed by the United States. Hull asserted that such seeking of bargaining advantages would imperil any negotiations. Hull termed the practice equiva lent to "padding the price" of an article and then cutting it to make a sale. It would result he said, only in harm to world trade and the probable failure of any negotiations. Undersecretary William Phillip!, in making Hull's statement public, likewise refused to name the offenders. More than usual significance immediately was attached to a apeech in Chicago tonight by George N. Peek, special foreign trade adviser to President Roosevelt. Before a group of business men, Peek explained some of the trade restrictions being faced by the United States. He said ha possessed a record of 180 "exclusive commercial agreements and barter transactions.

The first matter with which Mr. Esling was confronted on his trip up the lake were grievances iln connection with the allocation of relief work, and he took occasion to make clear the fact that aside from maintaining the campa for the single, homeless unemployed, the Federal government has nothing to do with relief other than the furnishing of the very essential funds. ,. 80LELY UP TO PROVINCE "The Federal government," said Mr. Esling, doel not say who shall or who shall not have relief, or whether a man shall have more road work or less than he hai been getting. The administration of relief is solely in the hands of the provincial government at Victoria. Ottawa supplies this province with $150,000 per month or $1,800,000 a year, car- marked for relief. This grant is given to the British Columbia gov ernment, fr\» of any conditions oth er than that it shall be used "for the relief of the needy. I repeat that the Provincial government administers relief, and the Federal government has no agent or representative in this district to make, increase, or reduce awards." The speaker exnlained the new Franchise Act which does away with swearing i.' voters on election day and makes it incumbent upon every person who values the franchise. see that his or her name is on the list. CANADA FORTUNATE Mr. Esling said that Canada was fortunate in having a man of Mr. Bennett's wide business experience directing the affairs of the country. In the conduct of Canada's business he has subordinated every vestige of political expediency where the welfare of the country was concerned. It makes one smile to hear his opponents charge that he is dominated by financial interests. Precisely the opposite is the case. Nobody questions his ability. The financial circles fear him, but admire his courage and honesty. He has cut bank Interest to 7 ner cent and provided a fine ot $500 for the Bank and $100 for the manager in every instance in which more than 7 per cent Is charged on a loan. He has taken from the banks $40,000,000 of their gold, and paid them $20.67 Der ounce, because he contended that they had not contributed to the enhanced value of gold. He has deprived the banks of the issing of $140,000,000 of their own bills, as well as the volume of business which will be transferred from them to the Central Bank. Chartered Banks vigorously opposed the entry of the Central Bank into their financial pastures, but Mr. Bennett thought Canada's future expansion warranted a fiscal agency. Fourteen millions annually in Interest will be saved to Canada by the maturing bonds to the value of a billion dollars, which have been converted at a lower interest rate. Another financial achievement by Mr. Bennett was his action in the Manitoba savings office disaster, when he arranged with chartered banks to take over the $12,000,000 of frozen assets of the institution, and secured one hundred cents on the dollar for every one of the 42,000 depositers. "A MILLION DOLLARS A DAY" "Nearly a million dollars a day, said Mr. Esling, "is what the Federal government must find to lay interest on the Federal National debt, for interest on the C.N.R. debt and provide for the CN.R. deficit." He showed that since taking office in August of 1930, the present administration put into force such economies as to reduce controllable expenditures by $83,000,000 and C.N.R. expenditures by $40,000,000. There are uncontrollable expenses, however, which must be paid to the dollar, and they are: Interest on Federal indebtness $140,000,000; provincial subsidies, $15,000,000; old age pensions. $12,000,000; war pensions and after-care of returned soldiers, $51,000,000. Reductions in every dir ection have been made, but things look better, and Just as the national revenue! have lncreaaed, io have general trade conditions. In 1929, for instance, Canada'i advene balance of trade was $90,000,000 and in 1930, it bad reached $103,000,000. That is, we bought from other countries goods to the value of $103,000,000 more than we sold. Neither a country nor an individual can buy more than they sell without coming to an untimely end, but conditions are now reversed and at June 30 last, Canada had sold goods to the value of $150,000,000 more than we bought. "Efforts' to relieve the man on the land have not been overlooked," continued Mr. Eillng. "the Farm Debt Adjustment Act, has for its object a compromise of indebtness between farmers and their creditors, and one's troubles in this direction are to be taken to H. C. Irving, official receiver for farmers at Nelion. To further adjustment of farm obligations the Government is providing the farm loan board with an additional thirty million dollars for the benefit of farmers, who may repay in 22, or 44 years, at an interest rate not in excess of 8 per cent. THE MARKETING ACT Then there is the Marketing Act, which Mr. Esling explained to be a measure designed to secure for farmers in Canada a more orderly marketing system than at present prevails, one that will operate to their financial advantage without unfairness either to distributors or consummers. It aims to prevent manipulation and to provide machinery for regulating the movement of products in such a way as should tend to stabilize prices. For the protection of the producer of fruits and vegetables the department of agriculture has fixed "fair market values" by the application of dumping duties. No longer will the United States grower be permitted to dump his surplus produces into Canada in competition with the Canadian farmer. This is accomplished by the application of specific and special duties during the marketing season of the Canadian producer. The tariff is usually so much per pound in addition to the regular duty on the invoiced value. Apples, for Instance, are protected by a special duty of one cent per pound, including the weight of the box, which total about 46 pounds. This is added to the invoice and the customs tariff of 20 ner cent is applied to the whole. Thus on a box of apples from the States, Invoiced at $1 per box, the 20 per cent duty would apply on $1.46. The same principle applies on fruits and vegetables. One must visualize the advantages of these dumping duties when he considers what would happen if he were in competition with the surplus dumoed from the States. DUMPING DECREA8ED While time will not permit detailed reference to all products, the general effect is shown by the applying of the dumping duty on apples. In 1929 there were imported into Canada from the United States 190,000 barrels. After Mr. Bennett applied the dumping duty, the import! were reduced last year to 85,- 000 barrels or 125,000 barrels less than before the dumping .duties were applied. This means that the Canadian apple grower is saved the unfair competition of nearly 700 carloads ot apples, which otherwise would have been dumped on the Canadian market. Mr. Esling closed with a review of the Ottawa agreements, which he termed the most important step in the history of Canada. He explained that Mr. Bennett went to the economic conference in London in 1330 and there he proposed that "we of 1 e British Empire, in our joint and several Interests, do sub* scribe to the principle of an Empire preference, and that we take steps to put it into operation. There is no room for compromise. The day is now at hand when the people of the Empire must decide whether our welfare lies in closer economic union," and invited all the countries ot the Empire to meet at Ottawa in July of 1932. Accepting this invitation they executed trade agreements with each other by which preferences were given on such articles, the importation of which would not be injurious to the country ijito which they were imported. Tr- agreements have been operative since 1932. and Mr. Esling paused to say that Mr. King and his followers are pledged to cancel them. Col. Ralston financial critic for the Liberal party, introduced in the house ot commons, a sweeping resolution, denouncing the agreements as val/ieless, "Let us see what they mean," continued Mr. Esling. "The Dunning Budget of 1930 gave preference on a number of British products. Mr. Duning made it clear that Canada was not bargaining with Breat Britain, but giving them preference freely, while Mr. Bennett, at the Ottawa conference, made it equally clear that lf Canada is to give British goods preference in Canadian markets, Britain agreement!, and showing that British exports to countrlei within the Empire have increaied by $60,000,- 000 in the tint eight monthi of 1934. Juit as export! from Brit ain to countrlei within the Empire have increaied, so hai Canada benefitted in it! export! to Britain, as illustrated by the figure! of the Dominion bureau of statistics on apples, bacon and hams, lumber, etc. "Let us take apples. Under the Ottawa agreements, Canadian apples ire admitted free to the United Kingdom, while ipplei from countries outside the Empire pay a duty of 4£ Sd. per bbl. A barrel of apples oontains a fraction over three boxes, so thli means better than 30c a box. For the year ended March 31, 1932, the Canadian apple exports to Great Britain were one and a half million barrels, with a value of $5,500,000, while for the year ended March, 1934, the shipments increased to 3.000,000 barrels with a value of $11,368,000. "What about bacon and hams, queried Mr. Esling. "For the year ended March 31, 1932, the export of bacon and hams to the United Kingdom was 15,090.000 pounds, valued at $1,750,000, while two years J ter. it increased to 94,500,000 pounds valued at Jte.3M.000. LUMBER EXPORTS INCREASE "Here is the result of two years operation of these so-called vicious agreements in the lumber industry. For the year ended March 31, 1932, the export of Canadian lumber to the United Kingdom was 117,000,000 board feet, while at March 31, 1934, the quantity was Increased to 595,- 000,000 fact valued at $10,000,000. Is it not apparent that this increased export to the United Kingdom market removed a lot of surplus out from local mills and thereby improved the home market. The advantage to Canada is best Illustrated by two ships laden with lumber invoiced at $10,000 each. One ship is from Vancouver and the other from a United States port. The Vancouver lumber Is'turned over to the consisner at $10,000, while that from the Statei is turned over to the consignor at $12,000. In other words, the lumber from the States bears a duty of 10 per cent not on the invoice alone, but on frieght. insurance and every cent of cost that enters into loading and unloading, until it is turned over to the consignor so that the duty amounts to practically 20 per cent of the envoiced value of the lumber. "Canada's cut of lumber ln some years has gone as high as a billion and a half feet per year, but the Canadian Lumbermen's association, which had its observers at the Ottawa conference, showed the amazing advantages of even a billion feet. In a brief to the conference the lumbermen stated that a cut of a billion feet per year, meant employment and wages for 35.-000 men. In addition it meant a disbursement for food, equipment and supplies, of a sum equivalent to the wages paid that number of men. But it meant FIX ALIBI IN UNDYBATTLE Hauptmann Got Job in New York on Day of Crime NEW YORK, Oct 17 (AP). - Bruno Hauptman carried to the appellate court today bis fight to avoid extradition to New Jersey for trial on the charge of murdering the Lindbergh baby.
