COMMISSION ASKED TO INCREASE DUTY DISPLAY INTEREST IN CHURCHE Duty Be Augmented to Protect Minister of Railways and Canals Tells of Difficulty in Obtaining Test Cargoes for Hudson Bay Route\u2014-Wheat Problems Engaged Attention of House for Greater Part of Sitting Yesterday\u2014Freight Rates on Grain Debated.Ottawa, April 16.\u2014The Canadian grain trade has evidenced slight interest in the Ço0,000,000 port facilities at Churchill, Man., and the Hudson Bay Railway, Hon.R.J Manion, Minister of Railways and Canals, said in the House of Commons yesterday.It was only after great difficulty that sufficient grain was secured for the two trial shipments to Great Britain last fall, and bookings for the present year were lacking.The Government, proceeded Dr.Manion.was hopeful ten or a dozen boats would dear from the northern port this year, but a canvass of the grain trade for booking so,far had been unsatisfactory.There would be no lack of:vessels if the grain were available at Churchill, he added.On the trial shipments last year, said the Minister, the Government assumed the handling charges and tee cost to the shipper had been slightly less than if the grain had moved through Montreal.The insurance rates on the cargo was about five times the normal rate.Dr.Manion said he did not believe the Government should absorb part of the insurance rates.Strong representations had been made to the underwriters to reduce the rates, and future action would depend largely on the success of the port this season.The House closed the week with a day devoted almost entirely to problems facing the grain industry.The Government, announced Hon.H.H.Stevens, Minister of Trade and Commerce, had incurred no financial losses from guarantees to the wheat pools.This applied to guarantees to the central selling agency of the three Prairie pools for the crop year 1930-31 and the guarantee to the three provincial pools, in the form of working capital, for the crop year 1931-32.Action of the Government in# standing behind the pools undoubtedly steadied the market, said Mr.Stevens.If the Dominion had not stepped in, the selling agency of the pools very probably would have found itself in a difficult position.To his knowledge, the Dominion was lidding no wheat, although he promised to make a more definite statement on this point.Mr.\tStevens\tgave\tan emphatic\tDecided denial to rumors said to be current in some parts of the country that .T.ihn Y.MacFarland, head of the selling\tagency,\thad\tspeculated in grain\tfutures\tand\tbad suffered losses.Estimates of the Trade and Commerce Department provoked the grain trade discussion.Early in the clay many Maritime members impressed on the Government the ne Their Industry.Washington, April 16.\u2014The United States Tariff Commission was asked yesterday by domestic manufacturers of barley malt to increase the present duty of forty cents per 100 pounds to protect their industry.Strong opposition was presented by Canadian manufacturers and New York importers of European malt.The importers asked that the existing levy be retained or, if any increase were made, that it apply only to Canadian imports.The manufacturers sponsoring the demand asserted that the Farm Board through its wheat stabilization operations had increased the price for malt that malsters must pay and that the fluctuations of ten or fifteen per cent in Canadian currency had raised Canadian profits and competition.Canadian competition was held as unimportant by another factor, who held that what competition existed was due to any great difference in manufacturing costs, but is based | entirely, on temporary fluctuation in the costs of barley and raw material and a temporary monetary exchange

fourteen.\u201cThe committee will sit, a bill will be presented, and the bill will pass, \u2019 declared Premier Harrington, closing the debate.The two opposition members of the committee had announced their disinclination to serve, G.E.Romkey, member for Lunenburg, declaring bis disbelief in the principle of reducing the num- [ ber of seats, implied in the resolution; and R.W.E.Landry,

Reported Drifting\t* ' Everywhere.Regina, April 16.\u2014Fanned by a thirty-five-mile-an-hour wind which whooped over farm lands, tore through city streets, piled big dirt drifts on highways and railway lines, a dust storm raked southern Saskatchewan yesterday.Signs of rain were lost in the dull gray wmll of dust blown but of the southeast.Visibility was poor everywhere, some spots in the country reporting it was impossible to see more than a few feet ahead.Soil drifting was reported everywhere.In the vicinity of Regina, numerous farm trucks and autos were stuck in the drifted soil.In some places these drifts measured from ten to sixty feet wide and six inches to two feet in depth Highways were almost, impassable.Railways had gangs of men out trying to clear away drifts along the trackage south of here.Tracks were reported covered by about a foot, of sand and soil.The storms were reported particularly violent in the southeast portions of the province.Autoists entering Moose Jaw stated it was necessary to cut, fences running along the road allowances to drive over fields to reach the city owing to the drifted soiL arrest.It is estimated the rioters caused damage of about £12,000 on Thursday night.Last night, further trouble.¦ broke out and windows of fifty-eight shops were broken.Merchants took no chances over the week-end and immediately the city emptied for today\u2019s half-holiday, carpenters rushed to dozens of shops in the main thoroughfares and barricaded windows.Many shopkeepers regretted their action in hastily replacing plate glass windows after the disorders Thursday.More than 300 windows were broken during the two nights\u2019 rioting.WOULD ESTABLISH MARKETING BOARD Ottawm, April 16.\u2014 A national marketing board is being considered by the Department of Agriculture.It is said that the information of this body would lie to stimulate the prices of agricultural produce and increase exports to Great Britain.The.proposal is the outcome of discussions between the Dominion and Ontario governments, the National Dairy Council and the bacon and beef trade.Hon Robert Weir, Minister of Agriculture, has had several conferences in this matter, including one with agricultural members of his party.Among the activities of the proposed board would be to encourage the sale of bacon, beef and dairy products as well as grain.Honolulu, April 16.\u2014Immediate fulfillment of a defence promise to name one of the four accused persons as the slayer of Joseph Kahahawmi was sought by the prosecution in the lynching case here today.Exclusion of testimony relating to the attack on Mrs.Thalia Hassle, wife of one and daughter of another of the defendants, with which Kahahavai and four others was charged, also was sought by the prosecution.Before Lieut.Thomas H.Massie resumes the witness stand to continue his story, thus far principally relating to the attack on his wife, lawyers prepared to argue In chambers the admissability of testimony along that line.Clarence Darrow, chief defence counsel, whose illness halted ¦ r.he trial yesterday, announced last night he was \u201cmuch better\u201d and would be ready in court today.Prosecutor John C.Kelley announced he would seek to have Darrow tell ^he court specifically, before going further with defence testimony, just w'hich one of the defendants would admit firing the fatal shot and plead insanity.Testifying of the criminal assault upon Mrs.Massie, the young naval officer previously had said the affair preyed upon his mind.The.defence indicated Massie would shoulder responsibility for the actual killing and would raise the insanity issue, but Darrow did not specifically name the lieutenant in '\u2022his connection.Kelley said he wanted the defense to say whether Massie would admit the killing, so that it could be determined at once whether the navy officer now is sane or insaiie.\u201cAn insane man cannot testify,\u201d Kelley said.The defense broadened the visible scope of its activities by summoning six witnesses in addition to the two Los Angeles alienists previously called.CANADA LOSES Henry L.Stimson Allays French Fears that here Had Been an Understanding Between U.S.and Any Other Country Before Gibson Plan Was Launched.Paris, April 16.\u2014Before he departed from Paris to Geneva last evening, Henry L.Stimson, United States Secretary of State, had succeeded in allayipg the fears of France that there had been an agreement between his country and any other nation before the disarmament plan was launched by Hugh Gibson last Monday.Contending that he had come to Europe simply to get information on the Disarmament Conference and to offer what assistance he could, Mr.Stim-son left Paris in a more cordial atmosphere than he found it, while it was learned from French sources that his most earnest wish is to obtain some settlement of the Sino-Japanese problem.Mr.Stimson declared that the Gibson plan should not be called an American project, but a composite of many suggestions offered by several nations in the early part of the Conference.The Secretary explained that it, was based on the desire expressed by Arthur Henderson that some one embody the often suggested qualitative reduction of arms into a workable Scheme.In an interview, he distinctly gave the impression that he bad high hopes for the Gibson plan.Curiously enough it was Frank B.Kellogg whose name stands above all others in striving for world peace who-made the French feel rather badly today by repeating emphatically for Hie benefit of a group of newspapermen his objections to military sanctions for the Briand-Xellogg pact.Since the French .thesis at Geneva is entirely one of patting teeth into the League covenant the evening press here expresses annoyance against what the papers choose to consider an attack on France.Needless to «ay nothing could have been further from Mr.Kellogg\u2019s mind.French reactions are simply another evidence of the nervous tension obtaining in Europe these days.Family of Emelia Tersini, Young British Girl, Reported to Be After Italian Heavyweight Giant.London.April 16.\u2014The London Daily Mail said today that the family of Miss Emelia Tersini, a British subject, had served a writ on Primo Camera, Italian heavyweight gaint, charged him with breach of promise.A report that Camera would marry Miss Tersini upon his return to Europe from the United States was published in the London Daily News on March 11, 1930, but it was denied by Camera and his manager who were in Minneapolis at that time.A romance began, the Daily News said, when the heavyweight visited England for a bout with Young Stribling, The United States boxer.Upon learning that Camera bad denied they were engaged, Miss Tersini was quoted as saying: \u201cWell, Mr.Camera knows best.We are only friends, anyway.\u201d PREMIER TASCHEREAU INSISTENT THAT QUEBEC MAINTAIN POSITION Although Hopeful that Compromise Will Be Reached With Federal Government, Mr.Taschereau Points to Necessity of Quebec Holding to Powers Conferred in Privy Council Decision\u2014No Information on Federal Government Unemployment Relief Plan

Foundation.SOCIAL WORKER IMPROVEMENT IN CONDITION OF HIGHWAYS Frost Coming Out of Ground Very Rapidly\u2014Rain and Wind This Week Did Much Good.Much improvement has taken place in the condition of the highways during the past week, and the routes should be in a satisfactory travelling state in a few days, provided the weather is favorable.The frost\" is coming-out of the ground very rapidly, and the rain and wind early this week helped to dry up the roads considerably.The highway to Cookshire is open and reported to be in almost as good a condition as during summer months.The route to Montreal is open throughout, to light vehicles, but is very rough between Magog and Granby.It is good from Granby to Montreal.The Richmond road is, also passable, but motorists are ad-j vised to pass on the west side of the ' St.Francis River from Brompton-ville to Windsor Mills.Route No.13 to Stanstead is open to motor cars of all kinds, while the road to Coat-icook is open only to light automo-biles, and is not in a very good condition.Rev.John Walker MacMillan Had Long and Varied Experience in Public Life of Dominion.Toronto, April 16.\u2014 Rev.John Walker MacMillan, one of the outstanding social workers of Canada, died here today.He was sixty-three years of age and was professor of sociology at Victoria College here.He was born at Mount Forest, Out.The late Dr.MacMillan was

Crisis.ARGENTINE FAIR DID NOT IMPROVE CANADIAN TRADE Ottawa, April 16.\u2014A considerable expenditure for Canada\u2019s share in the British Empire Fair at Argentine last year was the subject of comment in the House of Commons last night.The point arose when an item of $137,000 for exhibitions and fairs, pertaining io the estimates for the Department of Trade and Commerce, was under discussion in the committee >f supply.Hon.H.H.Stevens, Minister of Trade and Commerce, asserted the estimate this year was considerably less than the corresponding one for j last year because of the grant in \u2022that year to the British Empire j Fair.Dr.Thomas Donnelly, (Liberal, \\N mow Bunch), said that before the Argentine Fair.Canada bad sold that country $12,000,000 worth of goods.The year after the fair Canada had only sold $4,000,000.Dr, Donnelly presumed that if there was another fair Canada\u2019s trade until Argentine would be entirely wiped out.Nc,w York, April 16.\u2014\u201cI doubt whether all parties in the United States, with their frequent clamor to be independent of other countries, realize how the policy of obtaining surplus of exports and being lenders of capital involves them in the responsibility for the economic prosperity of the rest of the world,\u201d Sir Josiah Stamp, British financier and reparations expert, told the Academy of Political Science at its dinner.\u201cIt is possible,\u2019\u2019 the noted authority stated, \u201cto be by tariffs and otherwise a c\u2019.osed system, but not possible to combine this with the profits of interest and risk-taking involved in export trade and foreign loans.\u201d Sir Josiah claimed that lack of international co-operation and national political prejudice are responsible for the world\u2019s woes and rehabilitation can come only by recognition by all nations, including the United States, of their interdependence.Sir Josiah declared \u201cthe lending and borrowing of money between countries is ultimately an interference with trade.\u201d \u201cIts volume and direction may or may not correspond with the ultimate convenience of the natural direction of imports and exports,\u201d he continued.\u201cNo country can become a foreign lender merely by votes of large resources and complete willingness.It has to stay out, bad times as well as good; it must not change its position when the storm comes on or it will rock the boat and frighten every one.\u201cInternational finance, such as is involved in supporting bills of exchange, or even lending on bonds to smaller foreign governments, demands a close study and long experience, but above all great powers of endurance to withstand the temptation to clear out or destroy the credit of the borrowing country in times of difficulty and danger.\u201cNo country that has not cultivated these qualities can, under modern conditions, really help forward the problem of stability and control, unless it is confidently in possession of these qualities.\u201d SIX PERSONS MET DEATH IN NEW YORK FIRE Quebec, Que., April 16.\u2014Although Premier Taschereau is hopeful that the present negotiations between Ontario and Quebec and the federal government relative to jurisdiction over insurance will result in an agreement, he insists that Quebec must retain the provincial jurisdiction as determined by the Privy Council.\u201cMr.Lanctot has just returned from Ottawa where he represented Quebec, which, with the province of Ontario, is endeavoring to reach a satisfactory entente with the federal Government relative to control of insurance companies,\u201d said the Premier.\u201cApparently we have not got anywhere so far, but I am still hopeful.\" Assistant Attorney-General Charles Lanctot.K.C., speaking of the negotiations said that the bone of contention was the stand taken by the federal Government that despite the Privy Council decision it still has extensive legislative rights regarding insurance, while the two provinces insist upon their rights to provincial jurisdiction but are willing to make certain concessions in order to arrive at a solution of the question.\u201cAfter adjournment of the Senate on Wednesday.Mr.Geoffrion and myself held a conference with Senator Arthur Meighen, at which were present Messrs.Bayly and Foster representing Ontario, in order to permit consideration of the suggestions made by Ontario and Quebec,\u201d said Mr.Lanctot.\u201cWhatever may be the result of these negotiations, Ontario and Quebec are in accord on a united stand in the matter of provincial jurisdiction.\u201cThe situation regarding the question is: On the one hand the pro-! vinces do not want to expose themselves £0 a suggestion, which might j come up any time when insurance matters might be before the courts, 1 that they interpret the points at issue in such a way that it could justify i a contention that the provinces had abandoned their legislative rights as ' determined by the Privy Council, particularly by the last judgment.\u201cOn the other hand there is a & feeling in certain circles connected ' with the federal authorities that Canada still has an important part of legislative rights vested in it, regarding insurance matters.The province of Ontario and the province of Quebec, to whose contentions the province of British Columbia has adhered in express terms, are willing, in order to meet the requirements of this vast insurance business, to concede the exercise of ______\tI some of their powers enjoyed under F.ll.wmg Five-Day Trip One 06

Tenement House.New York, April 16.\u2014Six persons were burned to death and two children seriously burned in a fire that swept a four-storey tenement house in the Bronx after midnight this morning.The bodies, so badly charred no immediate identification could be made, were found on the stairway at the third floor.Apparently they were members of a single family.The children seriously burned were Philip Weinstein, ten years old, and his sister, Edith, seven years of age.Three days ago a fire here took the lives of Mrs.Celia Sanders and her five children.> five day absence from the city.I The retired naval officer, again assuming the role of spokesman for the trio, said he, Mr.Curtis and the Rev.Dobson-Peacock, former Canadian rector and the third member, would confer again with Col.Lindbergh when necessary.He would give no indication, however, when he expected such further conferences may become necessary.Referring Frequently to the request made by Col.and Mrs.Lindbergh that the pre;_.refrain from questioning and following negotiators, Admiral Burrage maintained a strict silence concerning the progress of the negotiations and details of their recent trips.He revealed, however, the four conferences were held with Col.Lindbergh.Mr.Curtis left Norfolk on Sunday shortly after conferring with Col.Lindbergh concerning the futile payment of $50,000 to men identified as the kidnappers.Prior to his departure he and Dean Dobson-Peacock stated their efforts were made more difficult by the unsuccessful ransom payment.The negotiators, however, have repeatedly expressed fakh in parties with whom they are dealing, and have stated the ransom transaction had no connection with their work.I Dean_ Dobson-Peacock expressed jthe belief that protection against another \u201cdouble-cross\u201d would be provided i.i whatever arrangements i for the return of the child may be [ made by the Norfolk men.Mr.Francoeur was asked if he had learned that the federal Government had decided the course for the future was abandonment of unemploymenti relief works and the substitution of direct relief only.He made it clear that he had no information from Ottawa to this effect, and was not prepared to give expression of opinion in the matter.The provincial legislation has been supplementary to the Ottawa decisions.Asked as regards the matter of extension of delays in which relief woi'ks may be completed, Hon.Mr.Francoeur pointed out that there has already been an extension up to May 1st and that the demands to the federal government from municipalities which require delay to complete their programmes is that the time be extended to July 1st.The minister was not prepared to venture an opinion as to what Ottawa would do as regards these requests, but appeared of the opinion that as 1 égards works not completed by May 1st because of uncontrollable circumstances, notably owing to weather conditions, the federal Government might be inclined to yield to the requests.Pending Ottawa\u2019s decision, Hon.Mr.Francoeur was not prepared to make any statements as to the course to be adopted by the provin-(Continued on page 11) THE WEATHER #\u2022 -a FAIR AND

he may not appeal through his exclusion of lightness, his Mackenzie who inflicted the surprising defeat on the present Minister of Trade and Commerce and who sent the Hon.H.H.Stevens out on the mountains to prospect for a seat.The member for Vancouver Centre is a coming man.He has a clever genius for debate, and once he grows more deliberate in expression, more doucement in delivery, as our friend Howard would express it, the more would his hearers be carried to the clear air of the Highlands as tho\u2019 listening to the clarion call of the bagpipes.With all the natural talents of a far-famed Scottish clan, and with the deep learning of the great British universities as a background, the greatest Liberal chitl of them all may be sitting in his tent for the moment, but Canada will think much of him when they will hear more.Mackenzie is a likable Scotchman, and the fact that the most Canadian city in Canada adopted and elected him as their favourite son would bespeak the citizen rather than the partizan.I do not admire the man who is too partizan in mind, for it does not token breadth of understanding.Mr.Mackenzie had just returned to his room for his daily regimen of reading and study when I broke into his solitude as a stranger, and within ten minutes had made and gained a congenial friend.Twas the bit of Lowland Scottish in me which made the sparks fly\u2014 Keep an eye on Ian THE SHAME OF THE SENATE.Adroitly sparring for time the five erring Senators who have affronted the public and besmirched the Upper House, think to escape, and to retain their seats in the Senate of Canada.Be it not that they be chased from the Temple, and both scourged and scorned for their brazen conduct, then will each Senator, in good standing.ha\\e to apologize when he admits he belongs to that august body.Smoke screens of more important questions may presently hide the errant ones.They may think that time in its passing heals and hides all wrong, but they should take thought of the fate of all those Washington politicians who were responsible for the strange and sudden death of President Harding, and who had disgraced his administration Do the Senators wish to be on the defensive for ail the coming years when they confess that they belong, or do M cy wish to cleanse the Red Chamber of the rougeous rogue:; and thus retain the respect and the trust of the general public.The eyes of our neighbours are upon us, and we will forever be ashamed to comment upon any skulduggery in public life anywhere, if the Senate of Canada be not purged of the plunderous members.It is a serious matter.A shuddering one.If there be no precedent, it is quite simple to make one.For our part, we do not desire to have to apologize for knowing a Senator.We regard that man as lost who has lost his CHINA\u2019S CLAIMS OUTLINED BY DR.KIANG KANG-HU Stales that Even if Japs Conquered China They Would Be Rapidly Assimilated by the Chinese People.UNDERTAKER IN COURT ACTION Social and Personal F.W.Lord Claims $950 from Denis Lemay, of Lake Megan-tic, Over Rental of Ambulance \u2014Matter Taken En Délibéré In the Superior Court before Mr.China for the first time in her ._______ ^ S3Z %n^&^XSS, \u2018ïuT even if Japan should conquer hef,jthe case of F- «-\u2018Lord, of this city, the Japs would Ik rapid' assimil-;

hyacinths in low yellow pottery bowls, many lighted yellow candles and dainty place cards decorated in the hospital\u2019s colors of purple and gold.Miss Buck and Mrs.Lothrop with the members of the graduating class were seated at the head table, the president of the Alumnae Association giving the address of welcome to the guests of honor.The programme included community _ singing, which last

Latest Conservative Activities.*¦ CITY BRIEFLETS *- * \u2022 * HI-Y CLUB WELCOMED NEW MEMBERS Fifteen new members were initiated into the Hi-Y Club last evening, while as an added feature of the evening short but interesting addresses were given by Messrs.Wright Gibson, principal of the Sherbrooke High School, and W.P.McVie, general secretary of the Y.M.C.A.A programme of activities for future meetings was also outlined and decided upon.LOCAL HOCKEY CHAMPIONS TO BE FETED St.Francois Juniors, Eastern Townships hockey champions, St.Francois intermediates and the Pirates, Eastern Townships juvenile monarchs and contenders for the provincial crown, will be feted tomorrow afternoon when they will be tendered a banquet by the St.Francois Snow-shoe Club at its headquarters on the Ascot road.The dinner will be given as a tangible mark of appreciation for the sportsmanship displayed by the three clubs in their respective circuits.Members of the Conservative party throughout, the province will follow with close interest the meeting in Montreal today between Aime Guortin, M.L,A\u201e for Hull and whip of the Conservative party at the Legislature, and the former house leader, Cathillien lloude, also onetime Mayor of Montreal.Just what the meeting will bring forth is hard to say.One thing is certain, Mr.Hondo will have to hand over his resignation as provincial leader before very long, because he has no grounds for argument.In the first place he has no seat in the Legislature and a leader without a seat, is just not according to Hoyle.Again the defeat which he suffered in the recent Montreal municipal elections shows that the people have taken the (rouble to end his public career for him.Because of the present circumstances, it is a foregone conclusion that his resignation will he accepted without delay, so as to allow the party to take measures, in view of tho necessity of'having a permanent leader in the Legislature at the next session.Whether this will be done through a convention or not remains to be seen.A prominent member of the party in the Legislature, who refuses to let his name be made public, expressed the opinion that with provincial elections three or four years distant, there was no necessity for a convention to be held just now.The elected members of the party, in his opinion, could very well assemble, accept the resignation of Mr.Houde, and choose immediately another leader from among them, eleven from the outside.Whatever nappens, it seems certain that the party will organize a series of regional mass meetings through the province, in order to make better known its policies, and present constructive criticism on those followed by the present Government.If a new outside leader is chosen t in the - meanwhile, this will afford jhim an excellent occasion to present himself to the people, it is said.Furthermore, hé might well be a candidate in the -vacant seat of Jacques Cartier, whenever the Government iliinks lit lo order an election.FLOOD W \\TERS RECEDING Following several clays of anxiety as the rivers and stream?of the Eastern Townships, swollen by melting snow and spring rains, rapidly rose and reached the overflow point, residents arc now rejoicing in a si wer but rn equally sure recession of the flood waters, For the past two or three days dry, cold weather has prevailed, and has had the effect of retarding the flow of water.The St.Francis river at Sherbrooke has declined several feet from the high point reached early in the week, and although the water is still a\u2019.o-o the normal level.that all danger of damage has been it is believed further flood averted.This drop in the river level did not come any too soon, as damage running into tens of thousands of dollars had been done

ton, twenty-eight -years old, finds, himsylf in the most critical situation] of his life\u2014penniless, with only a few staunch friends, and even these unable to do very* much to help him.Some of these friends have started a ntbscirifftion in town in order to raise suffirent money to obtain a lawyer to defend the ,hoy.It is the most that they can do.Appleton i.o>oiifin(l during, the day time in a cell with five other prisoners, and as yet the monotony of prison existence has not affected him.Occasionally a friend comes to see him, but,-as a rule, he is left very much alone.He has no one to semi him Ihoughtful packages of Î CHURCH NOTICES * &-# PLYMOUTH UNITED CHURCH Dufferin Avenue.Minister: Rev.G.Ellery Read.D.D.; choir director: Mrs.Alberta Adams; organist: Mr.Robert B.Watson.Sunday services of worship: 11 a.m.\u2014Sermon: \u201cSpiritualixing Our Workaday Life.\u201d Children\u2019s address: \"A Garden In A Slum.\u201d Anthem: \u201cIn Heavenly Love Abiding\u201d (George Burdett).Solo, by Mr.Graham Ferguson, \u201cThe Lord Is My Light\u201d (Allitsen).7 p.m.\u2014Sermon: \u201cHealthy Prejudices.\u201d Anthem: \u201cThe Woods and Every Sweet Smelling Tree\u201d (John E.West).Solo, by Mr.Forrest Lord, \u201cFrom Gloom to Glory\u201d (Geibel).Church School: 10.45, Beginners and Primary departments; all others at 12:15.Plymouth Church extends a welcome to all.strangers and visitors in the City.All sittings free.ST.ANDREW\u2019S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Frontenac Street.\u201cThe1 Growing Church with the Living Message.\u201d Minister: Rev.J.R.Graham, M.A., B.D.; Residence: 68 Portland Ave.Phone ,1977.Organist and choir master, Mr.C James Ferguson.11 a.m.\u2014Morning Worship; Subject: \u201cDrifters.\u201d Anthem: \u201cIn Heavenly Love Abiding.\u201d Solo: Miss Ruby Mercereau.7 p.m.\u2014Evening Worship.Subject: \"And the Devil Came Too.\u201d Anthem: \u201cAll in the April Evening.\u201d Sunday Schools.11 a.m.\u2014Beginners and Primary.2.30, p.m.-A- Junior, Senior and Bible Class.MANY PROTESTS HEARD ABOUT BUS SERVICE Citizens of Opinion, After New Means of Transportation Has Been Given Fair Trial, that Street Cars Afford Best Accommodation.The question of transportation, one of the most important and perplexing problems which confront the civilized world, today continued to be an issue of major importance to citizens of Sherbrooke.Over three months ago one of this city\u2019s premier enterprises, the Sherbrooke Street Railway, ceased operations, and since that time autobuses have attempted to serve the public.As time goes by the question arises whether the City Council, the repre- *- LENNOXVILLE *-# LADIES\u2019 CURLING CLUB ELECTED OFFICERS FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST SCIENTIST Montreal and Island Sts.10\ta.m.\u2014Sunday School.11\ta.m.\u2014Sunday Service.Subjects \u201cDoctrine and Atonement.\u201d Wednesday evening meeting, 8 p.m.Reading room open Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons, from 3 to 5.ST.PETER\u2019S CHURCH Canon H.R.Bigg, Rector.Rev.J.Comfort, Assistant.Mr.J.C.Somers, Organist.3rd Sunday after Easter.8 a.m.\u2014Holy Communion.10\ta.m.\u2014Sunday School.11\ta.m.\u2014Junior School.11 a.m.\u2014Confirmation by the Lord Bishop of Quebec.3.30 p.m.\u2014 Meeting for men in Church Hall.Speaker, Rev.A.T.Holmes, Toe.II.Padre for Ontario area.7\tp.m.\u2014Evening Service.Preacher, Rev, A.T.Holmes.Wednesday.10 a.m.\u2014Holy Communion.8\tp.m.\u2014.Evensong.PAUL\u2019S CHURCH 11.Cheverton, priest in ST.Rev.W charge.3rd Sunday after Easter.10\ta.m.\u2014Sunday -School-.11\ta.m.\u2014Sung Eucharist, 7 p.m.\u2014Evensong.sentatives of people to whom the administration of civic affairs is entrusted, acted wisely or not by introducing this system to supplant the old-established and street cars.It will be remembered that In the discussions which preceded this iribve, considerable consideration was accorded to many angles of the situation, but at present it seems that the sponsors of the new project did not foresee some of the difficulties which have arisen since the ' middle of January when the first .autobus made its appearance on the ç.ity streets.Lengthy negotiations and prolonged private sessions were held, and the outcome was that the new method would be adopted, although in various sections of the city sentiment, did not favor the abolishment of the trolley.Many voluable protests were raised, but they found no support from the City Fathers.At the present time, the opening of the motorist and tourist season, another question rears its head, the maintenance of streets and roads over which the huge automobiles run.Complaints are heard daily in connection with the condition in which the different thoroughfares find themselves on account of the unaccustomed weight which the! road beds have had to bear.Motor-1 ists voice their disapproval over the \u201cwash-board\u201d state of the routes and local officials arc beginning to think that the valuable tourist trade will be adversely affected unless adequate changes are marie before the advance guard of visitors come to the Queen City of the Eastern Townships.Some streets in the north ward, especially Ontario street, have already plainly show the worse for wear and Wellington street presents a mass of holes.A short time ago, service was suspended along this street, and Victoria street is now used.It would be interesting to the rate payers were a qualified road engineer to compute the damage being done to the streets by the heavy vehicles.It would -perhaps be estimated, should such a survey be undertaken, that the total cost to the city A most successful curling season was brought to a close on Wednesday evening when the annual meeting of the Ladies\u2019 Lennoxville Curling Club took place.Mrs.Gertrude Forbes, the president, was in the chair, and in the absence of the secretary-treasurer, Miss Doreen Stewart, the financial report was read by Mrs.Frank L.Jenne, Mrs.Roy Clarke, chairman of the match committee, reported that seven regular rinks had enjoyed an excellent season.Several special competitions were held, as wèll as two evenings of mixed curling.Inter-'club games were played with the Ladies\u2019 Sherbrooke Curling Club and an invitation to play in Granby had also been received.A vote of thanks was extended to Mrs.Clarke for her work as chairman of the match committee.The tea committee statement was given by Mrs.L.V.Parent.Eight teas and two suppers had been given, and Mrs.Parent\u2019s work as i convener of this committee was j much appreciated by the club.A vote of thanks was extended to; Mrs.Goodhue for the beautiful' reliable trophy which she has donated to thef club to be competed for in future!

and early spring, the destruction to ] Hie roads is most noticeable, and the j numerous fissures in the pavement j make motoring decidedly disagree- j able.The unemployment situation is [ another important' phase of the plan | apparently overlooked by the foster] fathers of this scheme.Little con-j sidération was given to the effect] the removal of the street cars would situation is all the more contrasting when one considers that some of the bus drivers are virtually holding two positions* while their less-fortunate brethren walk the streets in search of work., Service is another point which has been drawing sharp criticism.One could always rely on the street car to arrive home at a reasonable time for supper.Now, the delays experienced at the terminal on the corner of King and Wellington _ streets makes the house wife peevise when hubby comes home with \u201cI took the bus home.\u201d On Sundays the half-hour service aggravates matters beyond human patience, according to many citizens.Now that a fair trial has been afforded the busses, protests from numerous quarters condemn the new style of travel and advocate the return of the street car.The tracks are still imbedded and little time would be wasted should a suitable entente be made between the City and the Street Railway Company and the trolleys put back into operation for the benefit of the masses.1 Don\u2019t neglect to rend the classified advertisements in this issue.They likely name something you want.The BANK CLEARINGS SHOW DECREASE bank clearings for the past ; week, according to the Sherbrooke ] Clearing House, amounted to .$555,-865.01.This is a decrease of $269,- [ 213.11 when compared with the toial for the same week last year of i $825,078.12.A decrease of $515,745.59 is also ) shown for the past week compared with the similar period in 1930, when the clearings amounted to $1,071,610.60.GOOD BREAD SATISFIES DELIVERED LEX PURE ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE The aims, purposes and achievements of the Christian Science movement were described in a vivid manner last evening by Mr.Robert Stanley Ross, C.S.B., of New York City, before a very np-nreeifitiVc audience in the Christian Science Auditorium, Montreal street.Mr.Ross is a member of the Christian Science Board of I/ecture* ship and a speaker of norit.Guest; \u201cLook here, your advertisement.stated that this room had a heavenly view.\u201d Manager: \u201cThat\u2019s right\u2014-thoro's the skylight.\" Be sure it is made in ALLAH\u2019S New Modern Bakery Quebec Central Train Arrivals at Sherbrooke; No.1 \u2014 7.15 a.m.daily from Newport, Boston.Springfield and New York.Sleepers and Coaches, No.2 \u2014 1.06 p.m.daily except Sunday, from Quebec (via Levis) and Lake Frontier.Buffet-Club-Parlor Car and Coaches.No.51 \u2014 2.35 p.m.daily except Sunday from Newport.Coaches.No.6 \u2014 9.20 p.m.daily from Quebec.Parlor-Cafe Cars and Coaches.Train Departures from Sherbrooke: No.1 \u2014 Quebec.Coaches, No.50 \u2014 8.00 a.m.daily except Sunday for Newport.Boston and Springfield.Coaches; Parlor-Cafe Cars Newport and Boston.No.5 \u2014 4.10 p.m.for Quebec (via Levis) and Lake Frontier.Buffet-Club Parlor Cars and Coaches.No.6 \u2014 9.10 p.m., for Boston, Springfield and New York.Sleepers and Coaches.City Ticket Office.91 Wellington St.North, (Phone 130), 8.09 n.m.to 6.00 p.m.week dnys; 9.00 n.m.to 10.00 a.m.and 5.00 p.m.to 6.00 p.m.Sundnyn: Station Ticket Office (Phone 207) 4.15 a.m.to 11.00 p.m.week a Ba-'-ed Rock.- are bred for vigor, hardiness, size and heavy egg production during cold Quebec winters.Write Welle^lea Farm, Afheis^a\u201d.Qije.Typewriters Typewriters UNDERWOOD MATHIAS TYPEWRITER EXCHANGE Rentals\trepair»\tPhone *43 L OCAL AGENTS WANTED TO SELL ON aiasion in the counties of RicbmoTK aatead The Renfrew Macfemen AfODERN HEATED FLAT, THREE OR -'\u2022* '¦\u2022 ü- ' T.- ba*h, gas range, balcony, garage, to $5'.Phone IvtO, 21 Vim y St T AHREE ROOM FLAT TO LET.BATH, s porch, $13 per month.Phone yjAN OR WOMAN TO TRAVEL AND in busing in Toronto forty-two years Po tion jK.-rmanert.Write for partita*rs, expense al.owarce, etc.W;raton Co.Toronto.PSUABLE MAN FOP.ONE HUNDRED K.tore route,\tc, ,.-y\t^ un- Mfg.Ojrr i'&r y, Ne -v To-Oct FARMS FOR SALE ( lOOD FARM OF >r> ACRES FOR SALE stocked or with out; grxxi buildings, run- f-,ir mi.** from hberbrooke, two miles from ' Lennox - le, «no-; -\t^ the Allen McGee place.Apply to Fred Gaunter, 0s Lincoln !

Dr.Antoine Bernier\u2014Original Claim Reduced.CANADIAN INDUSTRIES, LTD., ARE DESIGNING NEW PLANT New Plant, Which Will Be Built at Copper Cliff, Ont., Marks New Progress and Development in Industrial Life of Canada.The chemists and engineers of Canadian Industries, Limited, are at present actively engaged in designing a commercial plant to be built at Copper Cliff, Ontario, to produce sodium and aluminum sulphates.These chemicals are to be recovered from -waste slag by a new process developed by Canadian Industries, Limited.A sufficient quantity of slag is produced at the International Nickel Mine to allow approximately 15.000\ttons of sodium sulphate and 25.000\ttons of aluminum sulphate to be reclaimed annually.Copper and nickel sulphides are found in the same ore body at the International Nickel property.To separate these two minerals that company uses the Orford process which leaves as a waste product a slag rich in soda and alumina which can now be treated with a cheap sulphuric acid to produce sodium and aluminum sulphates.The sulphuric acid which will be used in the process is being made by Canadian Industries, Limited, from smelter fumes which formerly were going to waste in the air.The great difficulty in converting this waste slag into valuable chemicals has been in securing the separation of the sulphates in a pure state.Chemists of Canadian Industries, Limited, have been working on the problem for some time.Now they have perfected a process by which soda and alumina can be readily and completely separated and .the sulphates recovered in a very pure form.In addition, the copper nickel values in the slag remain in the residue and are there in sufficient concentration that they may be returned to the International Nickel Company\u2019s process.BRITISH CURRENCIES IRREGULAR New York, April 16.\u2014British currencies were irregular during early trading today oh local foreign exchanges.The Canadian dollar eased one-eighth on one per

18.\u2014Damages to the extent of $600 were awarded to Miss Georgianne Saint Ange, of St.Pie de Bagot, against Dr.Antoine Bernier, dentist 'of St.Hyacinthe, in a Superior Court judgment rendered yesterday by Mr.Justice Arthur Trahan.The plaintiff claimed that on May 11, 1930, she had gone to Dr.Bernier\u2019s ofice at St.Pie, where he practised, to have a tooth extracted.The work was done but the plaintiff claims that it was badly done and the pieces of_ the tooth remained in her gum with the result that later she -was taken ill and forced to give up her position at Granby.Later, plaintiff claimed she was obliged, because of her illness from this cause, to enter hospital here for prolonged treatment.She sued for $2,068.50 damages, representing loss of wages, cost of hospital treatment, medical attendance and reduced earning capacity.The case was beard here on March 9 by Mr.Justice Trahan who took the case en délibéré.At the time Doctors L.J.H.Page, Jean Morin aftd A.Bedard, all of St.Hyacinthe, testified in favor of the plaintiff, while Dr.Eudore Du-beau, dean of the dental faculty of the University of Montreal, and Dr.T.A.Cote, professor at the Dental School, were witnesses

PAGE TWELVE onc-nonuwxt DAILY KLLUKU.SATURDAY.APRIL 16.1932.PHnilES NOW EXPECT PLACE AMONG LEADERS Sudden Development of Don Hurst into Aggressive Player Gives Philadelphia Hopes of First Division \u2014 Humbled the Giants a Second Time, New York, April 16.\u2014Burt Shotton i&ads his Phillies out of the National League wilderness this season, and he threatens to, one of the chief reasons perhaps will be the sudden development ci Don Hurst into an aggressive player with real enthusiasm .'or the game.Despite great natural advantages.Hurst\u2019s value to the club has been lessened by an apparent lack of spirit and fire, For four years he had been a steady worker at first base for the Phils, but an uninspired one.Now he has become one of the big drving forces on a team firmly convinced it is going somewhere this year.Shotton's men regard a first division berth as a virtual certainty.Hurst was one of the big stars in the Phillies\u2019 victory over, the Athletics in the city series and yesterday he pounded out a home run with the bases filled in the eigbtn inning to give the Phils their second straight victory over the proud New York Giants by seven to six It was typical of the new Phillies that they made every hit count and played heads-up baseball all the way.Carl Hubbeli had held them to five hits in seven innings when they filled the bases and gave Hurst his chance for the knockout punch.Hack Wilson\u2019s first home run of the year, coming with two oh base in the seventh, broke up a pitchers\u2019 duel between Bill Clark and Tom Zachary, and gave the Brooklyn Dodgers an easy eight to two triumph over the Boston Braves.At St.Louis the World Champion Cardmais battered Pittsburgh pitching for fifteen hits, ten for extra bases, yet failed to avert a nine to seven defeat.The Pirate?used goot udgment in bunching most of their hits for seven runs in the fourth inning.Lon Warneke, rookie pitcher, scattered Cincinnati\u2019s eight hits and Chicago coasted in to an easy eight to two victory.Pitchers dominated the American League schedule except .at Philadelphia, where the New York Yankees and Athletics put on another slugging duel that finally went to the A\u2019s in the ninth inning by nine to eight.Foxx and Cochrane hit homers for the A's and Gehrig got his second of the season for the Yankees.\u201cBumps\u201d Hadley held the St.Louis Browns to seven hits and fanned ten as the Chicago White Sox, a vastly improved array, won a thirteen - inning struggle by four to three, when Carey Selph singled with the bases filled, Monte Weaver made his American League début for the Washington Senators and blanked the Boston Red Sox on four hits by two to nothing.Earl Whitehill,, veteran right-hander of the Detroit Tigers, held the Cleveland Indians to three hits, but it took a ninth-inning rally to win for the Tigers by three to two.MONTREAL AND TORONTO BREAK INTO WINNING Toronto, April 16.\u2014Canada\u2019s two hopes in the International League, j the Montreal Royals and the To-[ ronto Maple Leaf?, finally have ; crashed into the winning column, i Montreal, however, owes a decided 1 vote of thanks to the Reading ; Keys.Without the aid of eight ! Reading errors, the Royals hardly ! could have hoped to have won yes-! terday sixteen to eleven comedy.Toronto, on the other hand, clear-' iy earned its eight to one triumph over {he Newark Bears.Clarence Rowland, Reading manager, perhaps will be excused if he voices a desire not to see any more games such as he was forced to witness yesterday.O: Reading's eight errors.Jay Partridge, second base-man, contributed four.In fact.Jay seemed to be doing his best to strike a nice balance between runs he drove in and runs he permitted Montreal to score.He clouted two home runs and a single, and thus accounted for five Reading tallies.Ripple was Montreal\u2019s leading batsman, driving in four runs with a homer, double and single.Toronto banged Don Brennan for twelve hits in seven innings and won in a walk.Newark\u2019s slugging line-up was virtually helpless in the face of Art Smith\u2019s expert elbowing.Smith granted only five hits and would have had a shutout bad he kept the home run ball away from Jesse Hill, Newark outfielder.Buffalo and Rochester werè the other winners yesterday.Buffalo collected fourteen hits, including five home runs, off Cascarella, Tauscher and Smythe, and wallop-, ed Baltimore by eight to four.De-tore, Tucker and Carnegie hit successive homers in the fifth, and Tucker and Werber added another pair in the ninth.Baltimore\u2019s eight hits off Harrison and Brewer included circuit clouts by McGowan and Packard.Puccinelli\u2019s two home runs in the first and second innings gave Rochester an early lead over Jersey City, and the champions finally won by twelve to seven.Ray Starr, making his first start of the year, was touched for ten hits, in-! eluding homers by Layne.Moore and Clancy, but he worked only as 1 hard as he had to.HOME RUN \"sT ANDIN G Home runs recorded yesterday were: Foxx, Athletics, 1; Cochrane, Athletics, 1; Gehrig, Yankees, 1; Wilson, Dodgers, 1; Collins, Cardinals, 1; Hunt, Phillies, 1.The leaders in the circuit clout division are: Ruth.Yankees, 2; Byrd, .Yankees, 2; Gehrig, Yankees, 2; Foxx Athletics 2; Coilins, j Cardinals, 2.i The league totals are: American i 14; National 5.Grand total, 19.E.1 o BASEBALL RESULTS AT A GLANCE YESTERDAY\u2019S RESULTS NATIONAL LEAGUE R.H.Philadelphia.\u201d J \u201cNew Y\u2019ork .\t^\t6 13 Batteries ; .Elliott, Holley, Grab-owski and V.Davis:\tHubbeli, i Mooney, Walker and O\u2019Farrelh R.Hi E.j Boston .2 8\t2 ; Brooklyn.8 9 2 j Batteries:\tZachary, Frankhouse j and Crouse, Hargrave; Clark and !
