Conference would in theory be kept! alive pending possible resumption ay some time in the future.An American spokesman said this, morning that his delegation had been j in close touch with representatives! of other countries during the morn-1 ing.These other countries were not;\t- specified, but were believed to in- July Fourth Celebration Claimed elude Canada and possibly other, :or .\t_.,\t, -\t\u2014\t\u2022\t' - ~\t185 Lives, Fifty-Eight Less than Last Year and 298 Under 1931 Figures.\u2018Sparkler\u201d in Hands of a Three-; Year-Old Girl Responsible for July 4 Tragedy.______ Port Allegany, Pa., July 5.\u2014 A j \u201csparkler\u201d in the hands of a three year old girl caused two deaths yesterday because it was taken too close to a can of powder.Fred Freer, 50, and his granddaughter, Diana Jean Ostrander, three, died in a hospital and seven others were burned, three seriously.Members of the family were celebrating Independence Day when a can of powder failed to explode, so it was taken into the house to be fitted with a new fuse.While the j men worked on it, little Diana Jean took her \u201csparkler\u201d too close and the powder went off.Those In 1 the hospital are Mrs.John Ostrander, mother of Diana Jean, another daughter, Helen, and Vincent Doren.- AGAINST PARLEY ADJODRNMENT!\u2018«S=KtS!iPRINCIPLE OF ACREAGE REDUCTION real, Will Replace Ensign Calvert, Who Was Recently to Another Charge.Montreal, July 5.\u2014Changes Dominions Unite in Move to Prevent Conference Breakdown\u2014Hopes Held that United States Opinion May Veer Towards Closer Co-Operation with Other Nations \u2014Believe President Roosevelt\u2019s Statement Has Preju- the personnel of the Salvation Army, j.j\tD t.\t| officers are announced by Lieut.diced HlS rolicy.\t'Col.W.Peacock, Divisional Com-; ___________________ |mander.They are Major Barclay,; ondon, July o.-Canada aligned herself solidly with ^\tA^exlndY/^strfet8' rt OI tnejpjacjng Commander Miller, trans-j iferred to Spring-hill Mines; Ad- Transferred^ from Sherbrooke Australian Support of Proposals Contingent Upon Agreement Between Smaller European Producers and Large Importers\u2014Delegates Refuse to Enlarge Upon Statements in Official Communique\u2014Method of Operating Scheme Not Yet Determined.L FARM PRODUCE SHOWS HIGHER BUYING POWER July o.\u2014Canada aligned herself solidly with other\t, t0pr°^0',10\trt'\tf ondon' JuIy 3-\u2014The four &reat wheat exporting nations of the dominions'of the Empire in voting for continuance of the\t: lacjl c\u2019ommander\tMiller\t\u2019rans.\tI world today finally reached an agreement \u2019\u2022in principle\u201d on World Economic Conference.\tIferred to Spring-hill.Mines; Ad-\tadjusting wheat production and exports to the world demand, Prior to the meeting of the Conference steering committee yes-1jutant Fred Monday, Toronto to but Prime Minister R.R.Bennett, questioned by the Canadian Press, terday the Canadian delegation, with those from other parts of the Montreal Citadel Corps; Adjutant declined to go into any details.Empire and Great Britain, conferred and declared themselves against;Crowe, Essex,, ^ario to Kose- The agreement finally announced between Canada, Australia, the premature disruption of the Conference.\t|mings, Rosemount, to Sherbrooke; United States and the Argentine concedes that the co-operation of the The British delegation agreed and consequently at the steering\t; Captain M Catchpole, Lachine to!\tsmaller European exporting powers, as well as the big importing committee meeting later the whole weight of Anglo-Saxon opinion was\t!

akin to their own.They are just as much in favor of raising prices as the United States,] and they are just as much inclined to believe they can be raised by prices.Consequently, the next few days will be spent in approaching European powers, and more definite North American crop figures will he awaited by mid-month before the Wheat Conference starts tackling concrete figures.As General Average of Prices Paid by Farmer Declines, Prices for Produce Show General Advance in Past Three Months.1 Prime Minister Bennett and G.Howard Ferguson, Canadian High Commissioner in London, with Hon.E.N.Rhodes, Canadian Finance Minister, were all present at the meeting which ended in official announcement of the \u201cagreement in principle.\u201d PAITFiT1\tHFAn & 17\tInterviewed\tby the Canadian Press afterwards,\tMr.Bennett I II II I\tI\tIISAY\tI\tdeclined to add\tanything to the official communique,\twhich merely VvUiaa\t£\tXjuJii 1\t|\tsaid the powers\thad agreed on temporary adjustment\tof production and trade to the\tworld demand, recognizing the solution of the wheat monetary action and an expansionist policy, but they are convinced international action to this end would be much more effective than purely r)r.Rosario Fontaine Convinced problem depends on the co-operation of the European countries *\t* * T4 a vit xifAnlrl F n ci cj/»Viûwn/s Kû /wrvûY-o f *7 F Vi n\to n o/-I î o T3 v /i rsi i n v« FATALITIES IN UNITED STATES WERE NUMEROUS British Dominions and the Scandinavian countries which were reported i looking with favor on the American !

objective has been attained.Such a policy would command the support of i all British dominions and of most of per agricultural countries.Canada would benefit if President Mrs.Wilfrid Beauparlant a>ked Forged Gobeil Signature on $750 Promissory Note Found in Joseph Langlois\u2019 Clothes.How would the scheme be operated?\u201d the Canadian Premier was \u201cThere is nothing Roosevelt\u2019s policy brings a boom in the United States.The Canadian dol-j lar has followed the United States ; dollar so far, but since Canada has ' not inflated and i.the world\u2019s se- ; cond largest gold producer, she can 1 regulate he value of her dollar : when she sees fit.The Canadians do not see much hope for accomplishment at the Conference without United States co- ; operation.Australia insists that her participation in wheat restriction !
