> Tho report mentions that- when Miss'Pattrick, Director of Plunket Nursing,returned from her tour abroad, shestated emphatically that nowhere hadshe seen, more suitable or delightfulrooms for. a welfare centre. The com-mittee offers its sincere thanks to ''themany, friends and well-wishers, thebusiness houses of the City, and ourgenerous country branches .and sub-
whose presents have made ourPlunked rooms second to nono in theDominion." • .
There are now ten nurses, the reportstates, and a full-time attendant incharge of the Plunket rooms, so thatthe Society's - financial responsibilitieshave been increased. After reviewingthe situation the committee decided,following a resolution -passed at theGeneral Conference last year, to try tosecure as annual subscribers thosemother's •' whose babies are under thecare of the nurse, provided that theycan afford to become members.
/ Future Activities.During the year sub-branches had
:been opened in Duiisandel and Marsh-land, and a new-room opened in the!Hiccarton district, the ■ room, having jbeen provided, by- the- Guild , of
"
St.Martin's Church. *'Except for the ex-1tension'of the' work reported above," -this section, of the report concludes, i"your committee havo made no .at-tempt toexpand :.'oteir activities, and iintend contenting themselves this com-ing yea* < with carrying on the workto which they are already committed jin .the various districts,'and practicingthe- most rigid wherever pos-
• Bible, in the .hope• of trying to make apossible lowep income from a financially

Tha president, Mrs J. -MowbrayTripp, read her annual" report," whichsaid that the past year had been avery busy and difficult one financially,
,and the New Year found many changesand increased responsibilities. They,had been glad to welcome Mrs Cra-croft" Wilson' tp their last annual
. meeting, and" hoi- helpful and interest-ing address to the parents had beenmuch. appreciated. The executive had .met regularly every month, and theGeneral Committee quarterly. In Oc-tober the president had attendedconference of tho, South Canterburybranches in Timaru, when mattersinterest, to be brought up at thebiennial conference were discussed, andseveral remits/were ..approved, • > Thefollowing motion had been carried:-"That- this-South Canterbury Confer-,ehco' of branches feels that parents re-ceiving the help., of.. the .Society.,s
;-nuraes' should 4 be urged to bepwi.omembers, and it is desirable. in -theiropinion that a be pircularisedto them from committees, appealing forgreater co-operation ,and support-".Tho president -felt very -strongly on, ,this point, and considered that airparents should* look ..

'long to a welfare movement thai; gave,the finest Service in tho world for'the

motorists with their catß iti the coldest'months of the year that a good num-ber prefer to- leave the vehicles in thoshed and go to business by tramcar,'using a' taxi dn other occsftsloiisv ItftUst be adniitted that winter drivingis, often "accompanied by manj> disad-vantages. It is inconvenient no doubtto have the car liberally -

The trouble experiencediii starting a car from cold is anotherdeterrent against Winter use. Manu-facturers of carburettors claim that thetrouble ;ig Hot traceable to them, andsimilar claims are made by thoge whosupply electrical equipment, makers ofplugs, and vendors of petrol.
11l spite of all- these and other dis-advantages, however, there is much tobe said in favour of winter* motoring.Many people claim that the car is ofeven greater Use in the shorter daysof the year than in the summer, espe-cially if the carls of the saloon typo.

NOTES.
There are some bargains to be pickedup these days in used cars and many in-stances have been reported of pur-chasers who Secured good value tn
this respect locally. "Roadster" waninformed the other day of a motoristWho bought a used car iti Nelson for£3 10s for the Bprings. When he hadtime to examine his purchase he foundthat in addition to the springs liewanted; the car was ah-j equipped withthree tubes, a now cover, and no leasthan 20 gallons of petrol.
"In its desire to give every possible'service to members the [committee in->tituted & road patrol service on theSouthland i-ouda" (states the annuaLro-port of the Southland Motor Associa-tion). "This Was commenced at thelatter .end of last November and wascarried on urttit after the recent Easterholidays. Hie road officer was, sup-plied with a car and an assortment of
-,the various motor accessories whichmight be heeded in rendering assist-ance to motorists whq may.hiH-e ,met.with trouble on the road. To somedxtent the service was in the natureof an experiment, and,it was deoid«jdto discontinue same for at least thewinter months. The great difficulty tobe met with in this work is in thefact that the Southland district is averitable network of tna{.h roads, suchmaking \it impossible for' ode, patroltoati: properly and efficiently to patrolthe whole district. In the future itmight be found- worth while to" onlyn'ri'nnge fof thV-puirol. of certain roadson specials occawttns, a* for exampleWhen .race iHeetings, futrleUltnrftl shows-,etc., are being held in nn* particular'centre.

Thecompany, lie said, had Such a vehiclein mind and had even manufacturedit; it was, indeed, in the room at thatmoment.

A NEW CAR.
BRITISH FIRM'S MODEL.
VERY SEVERE TESTS*
(rjtov ova own cohmspokjdekt.)
LONDON, May 1A new Hillman car, to bo known as
the Wizard, waS introduced to thetrade at a luncheon in tho Albert Hallon Monday. The chairman of the com-pany Llout.-Colonel J. A; Cole, read a
message from the Prime Minister ofNew Zealand.
Mr Forbes said: "New Zealandstands wherever possible for preferenceto British manufactures, and I havelearned with interest of tho advent ofyour new model. There is a wide de-mand in this Dominion and in theEmpire generally foi 1 adequatelypowered cars suitable for local con-ditions, and I trust your new ear, de-signed to meet this demand, will have,every succefc.3."
The Wizard model has been designedas the result of prolonged study of themotoring fOquiromeats of every country
cars can be used, and has beensubjected to exhaustive practical tests.It was driven fast across I*rance_to.gpaih, whero it was severely triedthrough the passes of the Pyrenees andover the bad roads*-tracks and wildexpanses peculiar to travel in someparts of A return trip wasthen made to the factory for inspec-tion and report, and here each com-ponent and every detail in relation toits performance was examined with care.The car was then shipped abroad again,this time to Morocco, and Was driventhrough flood* in Algeria, over thomountain passes of Italy and Austria,and subsequently under tho severe con-ditions of an Alpine winter. The ea*is reported to have behaved welkin alltheso tests; and not until the 'Wizardhad completed many thousands of miles,undor all climatic conditions and over-all kinds of road surfaco was tho de-cision made to go ahead with' produc-tion. '

| To-day if a chassis is to bo solaSuccessfully abroad as Well Us at Home,conditions call for two sizes of engine,and the company has wisely realisedthis. Thus there is tho "65" modeland tho "75," but the choice of eitheris left entirely to tho driver. Theinitial cost is tho same. The "63'engine" has a bore of 65 mm; and anominal horse-power of 15.7, while the'•75 w Las a piston diameter of 75mm.and a rated power of 20.9.

FUTURE OF CARS.RIVAL TRANSMISSION
'systems.
DItiSEL ENGINE ADVANTAGE.
A battle between rival transmissionsystems, Wide acceptance of the down-draft carburettor aid fuelling method,bodies scientifically designed to avoid
' air resistance and the eventual appear-ance of a power plant embodying bothconventional and Diesel features are(seen as the significant trends in automo-tive activity during the .coming years,according to Professor Welter E. Lay,automotive expert- of the University ofMichigan College of Engineering, in areport jast received by GeneJal MotorsNew Zealand, Limited. .
The Diesel engine principle embodiessuch marked advantages in simplicityand economy that it cannot be disre-garded, declared Professor Lay.
: Elimination Process.Three general divisions of the auto-
mobile industry are sponsoring trans-mission improvements yariously knownas th® synchro-mesh gear, the Bilentthird gear, and the free wheeling prin-ciple. The immediate future will seea stern testing of all these, with theelimination oi one or tWo, or a com-bination of elements of each beingprobable.
Streamlining of bodies will proceedin the future along scientific lines de-termined by tests, instead, of ,boiagsimply designed to look speedy.
*
Onemanufacturer increased efficiency by 10per cent, at high speed by such design..The rear is more important than thefront in avoiding wind resistance, Pro-fessor Lay states, since it is here thatair currents either smooth away effort-lessly or whirl and eddy in a suctionwhich must be counteracted by moreengine power.'
Down Draft Caxbuxetiod.Down draft carbtiretion is a valuableaid to starting found in many newmodels, and the complete downwardfeeding system for the fuel from the
Barburettor to cylinders is a logicalprinciple which' "may" bo expected tohave wider application, Great sim-plification is.notable iij brskesi from thehighly complex affairs' of early four-wheel days to the self-lubricating, inter-nal expanding hydraulic and .mechanicaltypes with, moulded linings.
AH 'developments, Professor Laypointed out, continue the progress to-ward moro speed and power*with safety,a trend marked in recent years bylarger engines and higher speeds, butwhich engineers are attempting moreand more to achieve by refinement ofengineJetsll rind body design.

ON STARTING.USUAL PRACTICE
CRITICISED.AN ENGINEER'S THEORIES.
When I first became acquainted withmotor-cars (writes Mr J. Harrison,A.M.t.toech.E., A.M.1,A.E., in the "Auto-ear") engine starting, especially on acold morning, was something .of anadventure. One opened the bonnet,tickled the carburettor,..stuffed a.petrol-soaked rag into the air intako, andwound the starting hankie round halfA dozen revolutions. After that, oneswitched onj, withdrew the rags fromtho air intake, and, if all was well,the engine would start on an earlyswing.
Even after the electric Btarter wasinvented there was tho same ritualwith the, starting handlo and petrol-soakod rag every morning, for the earlyelectric batteries could not.be expectedto stand the strain of breaking downthe gumming oil film that held
when the engine was cold.When batteries grew so robust thatthey could be relied upon to start aaojd .engine without ■ buckling theirplates, the recognised Starting pro-cedure was as follows: One seated one-self in the driving seat, retarded thespark halfj way, switched on, pulled upthe strangler wire, and then steppedon tho starter switch. This is stillthe method of the majority of carowners, even in these days of batteryignition. But is it correct!
About five or six years ago no mag-neto could be expected to give a sparkstrong enongh to fire the mixture untilit had attained a speed of at least 40reva per minute, and therefore, ofnecessity, two or three seconds elapsedbetween the time when the starterbutton was pressed and the instantwhen tho engine had attained a suffi-cient speed for the magneto to fire thocharge in the cylinders.
Inside the Cylinders.During that comparatively * brief
interval of time a number of thingshappened; the engine had made at leasthalf a dozen revolutions and the pistonswere free by the time that they cameunder load; each cylinder had gonethrough .at least one complete eyoltof operations, And .was therefore filledWith expletive charge; the' flywheelhad. acquired a cettaUr am6ont ofmomentum 00 that when One cylindertired the flywheel eoitld carry the erank-Shaft over dead centfe despite thefa«)V that the firing ha 4 taken placda little ia yVdfaea «f tho dettd centre., let us consider the matter fromthe. angle of ignition timing. If 80degrees is the edtfeat ignition advancetpt $0O& t.pja.t then It follows that,$ degi'ees is correct for 800, and that lttiu oale degree spark advance is adegree too much when the engine isstationary, thertfor®, if we start anengine with the levar in the«6pura\tffßry&**

�'The Biblo to Africa."A lantern lecture entitled "The Bible
in Africa'7 was then given by the Rev.A. ,W. Stuart. The lecturer, with, theaid of about seventy interesting slides,traced the progress of the work of theBritish and Foreign Bible Society inAfrica during the past fifty years.Among the many problems of Africathere were three, he said, which direct-ly affected those engaged in the workof the Society. The vastness of the con-tinent; the sparseness of the population;the bewildering/variety of languages.
Africa, with its area of eleven anda half million square miles is seen in itsbroad extent, when a scale map is shownwith the' Continent of Europe, togetherwith India, China, two-thirds of Aus-tralia,"and the Whole of- the BritishIsles embraced within the coast line ofthe dark land. The total population isabout one hundred and fifty millions,as compared with three hundred mil-lion people in India and four hundredmillions in China.
"Africa, not long ago a bookless andalpliabetlcsß land has now translationsin two hundred and forty-four formaof speech," said Mr Stuart. "Thesehave been mastered and are now in usefor educational purposes, and some partsof the. Bible have, been prepared in allof these. Of 1 the two hundred andforty-four languages reduced to writing,nearly two hundred are the product ofChristian missions. There are probablyone thousand languages or dialects stillto be investigated." '
The Christian Missions.The story of the Christian missions
in darkest Africa was told by thespeaker. In 1857, Dr Livingstone thrills"ed the audiences of England With .thechallenge of the opportunity of theDark Continent. "Gentlemen, I beg iddirect s your attention to Africa. Youmust complete the work I have begunI leave it with you." Then followedthe appeal ,of H. M. Stanley, in 1875."Here, gentlemen, is your opportunity."
Answering the appeal the Church' Mia*feionary Society sent out Alexander Mac-kay, who won a number df Bag&Udayouths. The work prospered and thanBishop Hannington was sent out, btitbefore he reached the field of Uganda,opposition set in and he was murderedbefore he reached Maekay. To-day,Uganda was one of the most thriving
.inission fields in the world, with cathed-rals and well-established congregations,after fifty years of mission activity.Bibles and New Testaments were soldin large quantities e&ch year to the in-habitants in this Protectorates Therewere five hundred thousand Christians,Protestant and Catholic, in Uganda.The Church of England had foiir hun-dred schools with thousands ~of scholars.
Further South the Livingstonia Mis-sion had 772 schools with over 40,000primary and middle school pupils. TheNyasaland Mission of the Church ofScotland had three hundred schools with
, 15,000 scholars. The Baptist Churchcommenced work at the mouth of theCongo about the year 1880, subsequentlycarrying the campaign nearly 2000 milesup the mighty river, and to-day therewere nearly 1000 elementary and otherschools including four training andeleven industrialrecorded that in Africa to-day therewere 8892 Sunday schools, with 500,000pupils and teachers. Elementary schoolscholars totalled 900,000. ,
As illustrating the demand for theScriptures by the people of TJganda,thelecturer quoted W. J. W. Roome, Whosaid that iii 1924 the British -- andForeign Bible Society «<;ht 68,000 vol-umes. Of Scriptures to Kampala. Thesewere soon exhausted and • an' urgentcahie was sent to the London Head-quarters for 1000 Bibles. ' Crowds gath»ered and the sale continued for- threehours until all the copies Wjere sold.Some young nfomen werf so keen topurchase a copy at the Btom of 3s 6d,.that they forked in -the fields for onemonth to earn .this,, sum, and gladlybrought it to buy their owfc copy ofthe Scriptures. v

DUNEDIN SPORTSMEN FINED
Under the impression that they werein the Mackenzie County, in which theseason for taking paradise ducks wasopen from May Ist to May 7th, threeDunedin sportsmen, Geo. Young, JohnMiller, and Hugh Miller, visited theBen McLeod estate iii the GeraldineCounty, where they shot four of thesebirds before the ranger came on thescene. Each man was fined £1 and30s costs by Mr C. E., Orr Walker,S.M., in the Police Court yesterday fortalcing game in a close season.
The prosecution stated that the kill-ing of the paradise duck was franklyadmitted by the three defendants, whoclaimed that-- when they applied for'licenses to'shoot at the same place the'previous shooting season .the AccUmati-sation Society chairman had assuredthem that. the Rangitata headwaters•were in the Mackenzie. County. This,however, was denied by the chairmanof the Society.
The defence relied on the submissionthat the notification on the license wasbad because it was not drawn strictlyin accordance with the provisions ofthe Acti and the fact that the de-fendants had been misled by the chair-man 's statement.
A charge of killing game by usingan automatic gun was preferred againstGeo. Young, but on account' of lack ofevidence" the Magistrate 'dismissed theinformation.

DOUBTFUL OLDMASTERS.
WORKS IN AUCKLAND ARTGALLERY. '
EXPERT OPINION WANTED.
[THE FB.ESS Special Serrice.l
AUCKLAND, Juno 11,The appointment of a committee of
artists, to establish the authenticity orotherwise of a number of reported oldmasters at present in the AucklandArt Gallery, was urged by Dr. E. 13.Gunaon, president of the AucklandSociety of Arts, in a speech given be-fore the Auckland llotary Club.
On looking through the catalogue ofthe Auckland Art Gallery one wasstruck by the number of pictures at-tributed,with substantiated details, to'the old masters, to Baphael, IPrans Hals,Velasquez, Murillo, Guido Ileni, andAlbert Cuyp, said Dr. Giineon. In theNational Gallery in London such a col-lection was catalogued with the sourceof origin-of each old master .and itsfull history, together, frequently, withthe purchase price. A record was keptof known authenticated old masters,and if the Auckland Art Gallery con-tained a single authentic old masterthat fact was known and was on record.Unknown old masters occasionally come
to light from private sources, but itwaß probable that there was not asinglo authentic unrecognised old mas-ter in any public gallery in tho world.
Judgment by Experts."I seriously suggest to. our gallery
authorities that they take steps to auth-enticate bur reputed old masters," saidDr. Gunson. "In the first instance, acommittee of Auckland artists could beset up to consider them, and if anydoubt remain in their mind touchinganyor all of the old masters it should bearranged to send the pictures to Eng-land for an export opinion. If authen-ticated the location ■ of the old mastercould thon be recorded in tho Tear'sArt' and other official annals. We havono right, morally or intellectually, totake |n vain the name of any artist,still less that of a great master. If wecould establish the authenticity of oneVelasquez, Murillo, or Baphael,: woshould t>e the envy of Australia andNow Zealand, and our gallery would be-come a Mecca for art students."
Overhaul of Gallery Urged.Keferring to. pictures other than the
old ones, Dr. Gunson said:— •"The overhaul of the .gallery, is long
Overdue, and is an urgent seed. Onlya radical wdfeding-out will enable thegallery to serve its true purpose in theinterests of tho public and of art stu-dents. When this has been achievedand tho need of replacements and Addi-tions arises, in order to secure for thepublic the boat of what is offering, it isessential that purchases pt representa-tive artists' work be made as thesecame into the market—modern ajtistswhose reputations are based not on 'aca-demic distinctions alone, but whose workhas stoofl the test of (Srltieiem througha decade or .more." ■
Dr. Gunson mentioned the case of theportrait by Augustus John in 'the Auck-land Art Gallery. "It was a poor speci-men of the artist's work, he said, andshould -be replaced by a letter onewhile the opportunity offered. Augus-tus, John's portrait of the late Mr W. T.Massey, which was at one tim£ ayail-able for the Auckland Gallery, wap nowcounted one of the famous painter's,masterpieces.

The.

• The Bill sought to abolish alt bankstit present operating in New Zealand;and'to make it illegal. for any" otherfirm but the State Bank- to carry onlending or other banking operationalThe Bill also bought to make it illegalfor any trustee or executor to investtrust funds elsewhere * than in theState Bnsik. '•',...'.
'From 'the outset of. the debate, itwas plain that the Labour Governmentv,a& going to have,"a good deal of diffi-culty in geiting its Bill even throughtbe commitfee stages! The debate onthe. Short Title lasted more than anhour, ' much opposition' coming fromthe Reform Party, "and a fair amountt'fohi the United Party.
After lone and,a half hours of mostinteresting debate,-the third clause of
•(lie Bill, the clause providfng themachinery fpr the settiua up of'theSfr.fce Bank, was-defeated, as well asthe clause regarding tlye investment oftrust funds. After further debate, anew clause was carried setting up aState; Bank, but one not baring amonopoly, and in that form the Billwas.passed and .the House adjourned.

The suspension of ■ the UnemploymentBoard's Belief Scheme No. 6 meansthat a very largenumber of men—eventhe Board cannot say how many—willbe -without resources for a. fortfllghtor lliree -weeks.. This means in turn,since '*• no one can be allowed to gohungry, that local bodies, local unem-ployment committees, churches, and allother ch&ritable organisations will becompelled during, the same period toexhaust the funds held |o? dthef puiKposes. Ifet it meand also—if it,doesnot the situation is. quite hopeless—-that the public will-not again submitto such a reckless dissipation of theirpainfully provided contributions. Theyhave learnt, and will now have to paythrough the .nose for. .the lesson, thatto invite 'the tail to wag the dog isto shout aloud iort- trouble. And woare not. noWvblamipg the Board. Itdid no moire and no" less than .everycontributor 1 to the.futuj.. It assumedthat people's pockets were bottomless.Hundreds who had no claim to assist-ance got it, and hardly anyone whowas helped-was compelled to give ,areturn in useful work, There,fc&s beenno useful work, oi almost none, andalthough the fund wpuld 'have run outwhether it. was being spent usefullyor wasteful ly, the fact that anyonecould collect money without earning itcreated asituation that' the Boardcould not control. It'"is now twomonths since it announced that moneywas flowing out far more rapidly thanit was coming in, and revised the termson which assistance was available; butit has nevpr at any_ time set Its faceso resolutely againai exploitation thatthe drift towards bankruptcy wasstopped. Perhaps it was impossibleto stop -it. Perhaps even now it willbe impossible, without larger powersand "a .very much, larger levyf to getthrough the winter -months withoutbankrupting 'the fund again. But it
' will be a scandal,' for which we shallpay far more, than the present drainon our pockets, if tfetlilhg' is done butto- increase the taarAlthough thedistance .that the ■income willgd is ftot at fbfßt influenced by theobjects on which it is spent, the use
, thfft is made of it makes a great differ-ence to the freedom with which it is.providtitf. Host people would cheerfully
, double their levy if they .knew that< the money Would be spent usefiilly..i'hey would even submit to- the asser-tions of men 'like M|r Lawn, nonsensethough5 they *are, that there is plenty

. ' �* •.
The recent announcement -in Tabthat tliO Railway 1 Department
proposed fb increase the charge . forthe use of combined railway'and ro'adtraffic bridges on main highwaysagainst the Main Highways Board,"wasthe subject of a letter from the Aslibuf-toii County Council, Which wat( dealtwith at"last,night's meeting of tho exe-cutive of tto South Island Motor .Union.Tho letter asked that the Council shouldbe advised as to opinion of theSouth and North Island Motor Unionson the matter* the Council being par-ticularly interested in the matter ofthe Rakaia bridge.
At the recent conference held at.Wellington between the South andNo*tk Island Unions, it was stated thatthe Railway Department intended toincrease tho chnrge for the use Of suchbridges from the present figure of£2602 per annum to £18,479.
1 'This is a very much more serious rhat*ter for the South Island than theNorth, Baid Mr W. B. Carey.
The chairman (Mr F. W. Johnston)stated th%t he understood that it wasproposed to the annual charge formaintenance of the Bakaia bridge toabout £4OOO.
Bailwajr Accounts.A copy of a letter on the question/
sent to the North Island Motor Unionby Mr M. H, Wynyard, motorists' rep-resentative lon tho Main HighwaysBoard, was read'to tho meeting. Itstated that tho Bailway Departmenthad informed Mr A. Tyndall, engineerto the Main Board, that itdid 'not keep details of the maintenanceof each bridge separately, but a towsum for the, maintenance of all Buckbridges. On the figures given to MrTyndall, it appeared that the mainten-ance on all such bridges came to ap-proximately 58 0d per lineal foot. Itwould be safe, Mr Tyndall thought, toassume that with combined road andrailway bridges the cost would be con-siderably mora than the average, asit would include decking, handrails,et°' Fifty* Wr Cent. Increase.
Tho length of combined bridges onhighways was 23,500( lineal feet, and at5s 6d per foot this would be over *6009per yedr. Assuming tho maintenanceon combined bridges -'(which weroleaS.
one-tenth chain, of tho length .orall railway bridges) at a 50 per cent,increase, this maintenance cost would beabout £9OOO per yete.

It was decided t9- inform the CountyCouncil that a combined committerrepresenting ,tho Unions and theCounties' Association had .been HOT upto watch , tho position, and toopposo

Speaking for the Mr Bellf emphasised the necessity for the imtheJ
'diate provision of adequate protection'for these services), in -order to placeall motorpassenger transport On ineqfial footing, five ydars ago, he said]tho Motor Omnibus Traffic Act waspassed, mainly-for the purpose of•
tecting raftniclpal tramwaylugs froin wasteful Jand. com-petition, and it had definitely achiev.Bd"th&t purpose. Motor -Omnibus concflrnanOW considered that they conld fairlyclaim similar protection from outsidecompetition, which -was. ; .• threateningthem on many of,th& licensed routes.During the last five yearp' they had beeilcompeUed> in ofdeJ- to• obtain andti'nue a llcenSO tiyfcottlply strictly with,tho Act in all .its details, and- bad beengoverned as to fares, time-tables, con'djtion, and Construction of buses, and. in-surance, and had been required to mhni-tain an adequate service. 'It was the. opinion" of members of
the Association, continued Mr Bell,'that ,the time hid arrived when the interests.of the public- could/best be served byan extension of the application Of theAct so as to include alhrnoW passenger
I transport. "It could jiot be urged too.1stroiigly that the proposed Transport
i Bill should bo brought before the Hotjsfcat its' next sessiOn, That the matterwas urgent was, proved by the nuttberof letters recently received from mem-bers of the Association complaining .of-,thO increasing umottnt o-f interferenceon their licensed routes by vehicles notsubject to any regulation whatever.' The Prime Minister insured .the de-
putation that the brought be-fore him would receive 'due fconsideraytion. He hoped to bring down the tran-sport legislation early next session.

\' EUGBY; June 10.'
After hours of search by the other navalvessels; the'submarine Poseidon, sunknear .Weihaiwei yesterday, was locatedby grapnel last night, and attempts arebeing, made to-day to raise her by airpressure. • She is lying, in. 20 fathoms,and' divers are working about the hull.
• The latest advices recoived by theAdmiralty, state that the Poaoidon was'Sunk in, collision with- the Chinesesteamer.Yuta, whilo operating oa the
. surface in full buoyancy* She ' washoled on the starboard side forward .of tho couning-tower, and sank by thebow in about' two minutes. A Hong-Kong. Press message says there was adense fog at the time. ■
<The majority of the crew were ableto escape by the, conning-toiyer hatchWhen tho collision occurred,' and sixcame to' tho surface afterward by means
' of the new Escape apparatus.Eighteen men aro missing, and two
of those saved havo died.■ Six men' had extremely fortunate es-capes by thef'use of the submarine es-cape apparatus. The efficiency withwhich this, works is indicated by thefact that two of-the men»came to the
" surface 2J hours and 4J hours respec-tively after tho collision. Apparentlythey had somehow managed to freethemselves from their terrible position,down below. • •
Hew Escape Apparatus.■ :' Tho netv submarine escape apparatus
is the invention of u, London man, MrE, J. .Davis. In appearance it resemblesa lifebelt with a gas-mask attached. Abreathing bag, to which ,asmall cylinder.of compressed oxygon is attached, 4s

paratus was first seTvod ,out to sub-marine, Crews asfpart of the equipment,and this is the, first time a ralahap call-ing tor/its'use has/befallen a-submarineso equipped. ■<; .

ENGLISH COMMENT,
TEST TEAM AND PROSPECTS.
i
'(SPBOIAt TO 2BESB ASSOCIATION.) N
IX*NDON, June 10.English critics are' freely discussing
the Test prospects.The cricket writer of,the , "Man-
chester Guardian" says: ''The Jtog-lish side is likely to b© a judiciousadmixture of experience and promise.No risks can be taken with the NewZealanders.
"Merritt and Dempster ate not aboveadministering another dose of thoGrlmmett-Bradman medicine. Merritfcmust not be trifled with. Not hatffi, doaen English batsmen carl stay along time against s going-away spin."
This critic continues: "It must beremembered that" the next All Englandteam for Australia will get a founda-
tion from the team which is'to tacklethe New Zealanders this ' month." •
Ho considers that tho teem will in-clude D. R, Jardine (captain), H. Sut-oliffo, K. S, Duleepsinhji, W.B. Ham-mond, I. A. R. Peebles, H.* Verity, H.Larwood. M. Leyland, and L. Ames.
The New.Zealanders will play fourmore games before the. Test, and the
i•, performances in, these matches , w}'lprobably play a considerable part iathe selection of the Test eleven.

(Received June 11th, 8.30 p.m.)NEW YORK, June 10.
At Chicago five more local banks,.with total doposits of approximately15,00Q,000.dollars, shut their doors to-day. Some 0 s? Chicago's largest finan-cial institutions came to the aid ofother banks mop. which there had beena.steady pre&.vxre continuing* for severaldays. Well-known, bankers have issuedTeassuring statements •-expressing confi-,_dence «the soundness of. the"city banks.
rTwentyithreo banks' have closed"their, doors' in ' Chicago- this' week—six•oa'-Mo'nday, welve. on Tuesday, andiiv& JXaA reported ahoye) - on Wednes-Iday/the- failures .being dWjgenerolly,W< depleted reserves' because' of heavywithdrawals. Last year there wereabout 1362 bank suspensions through-out the United States, representing900,000,000 dollars in- deposits, whilein the >past decade the'failures havetotalled 6000 involving 2,260,000,000dollars of debits. Experts, however,have pointed o&t that the figures lookworse than they realty are as regardsloss to depositors. Many of the bankswere-Reorganised, and. a great .number*
-paid about 90 cents on the 1 dollar.Commenting on -the epidomio of bank"failures, the "New York-Times" noted.that one out of every 18 banks in theUnited States at the beginning of lastyear had been forced to close its doorsby.the time the vear ended. This was"the tyorst record of banking mortal-ity in the .history *of the country,"and bankers agreed that the figiiresproved the serious need for nation-wide banking reforms.!

The issue lor the current month ofthe magazine of the ChristchurchY.M.C:A., "The Man," asks, on its'title page the important question: "Isthe light lo be kept burning ?" Be-neath is a picture of the Association'spremises by night, with the welcomingand cheery light;pouring out of thewindows. It etiould bo an inspiring
i thought to those who contribute to the! Association's funds at the street col-lection to-day, and also to the armyof collectors, that tliey are assistingto kcop the light, both physical andspiritual, burning.
The whole of the takings from to-day's "Street Day" are to be devotedtp the ; maintenance of the' Associa-tion's many and important activitiesamongst the boys of the . community.The amount aimed at is £IOOO, andls
,
;"Jo barer minimum required to en-able the Association to carry on itswork ; amongst boys at the presentstate of efficiency. It is not a qnes.tion of asking for more than is .re-quired, but one .of asking for what isabsolutely -needed. The Association'ssenior department is self-supporting,but owing to the conditions prevailingat. present, the Association finds itself
.? somewhat difficult position, finan-cially in respect of the boys' division,hence the urgent appeal for funds.I pon the liberality of the responsemade to-day by the- public will dependwhether the work of the boys' division,is to be carried' on as hitherto, or isto be seriously curtailed.

40, was'charged in the Supreme Court-to-day, with attempting to murder Ger-
. trudo Edith .West, aged 18, at Te Awa-. mutu on January 24th.
Mr,H. T. Giljies, for the Crown, saidprisoner had been paying attentions to
, Miss Westl These were neither accept-' able to, the girl nor her parents. Kerr
1 kept pestering the girl and finally, was' ordered to remain away fom the house.A few nights before the Bhooting Kerr
1 attempted again. to soe the girl. The1 girl's parents were poor and the mother
; had to go out, to do cleaning. On the'morning of January 24th; Miss West
' was returning from office cleaning.when"Kerr,.who it would- bo shown borrowed.
i a shot" gun, followed her up in a motor--car and spoke to her. She resented hisapproach and went on to her home.
i* Later, Kerr called at the house andshot the, girl/, inflicting a very severewound necessitating the girl remaining
' in hospital for a lengthy- period, dur-ing which time her life was despaired
• of. Prisoner immediately after theshooting said he had fired the gun acci-
' dentally.: The whole question for the1 jury to decide was whether Kerr went
to the house with the deliberate inten-tion of shooting the girl or whether the
. gun went .off accidentally. ■Miss West gave evidence on the lines\ of that tendered by her in the Lower,. Court, . ' r

I Useful work is being 'done, or isabout to be done under the ©gis of iBoard in tho -way of "afforestation.llt is probably the most sensible- formof Irelief - work- upon which' the. Board
I has stumbled hitherto. , . ft will give| some return, !evcn if it be after many-years, and yet I think there is another •field operand waiting in which the

"I have pondered, this mat*tor for a considerable time, and if I am-wrong Will be very pleased 'to be cor-rected ■by the presentation of reasonedand -reasonable arguments against it.
There OTe great areas ;in New Zea-land-that are admirably adapted for thegrowing of flax. I need notgo furtherafield than the low levels that lie along-side, tho Waimakariri river. To. con-,vert that land ipto dairy farms would |,entail a great deal of initial expense, |
I which would have to bo paid for out ofthe dairy returns. But there is no
I such expense in growing flax on theHeareas.- ,
,-
,
Many suggestions have, been madethat the unemployed should be drafted'into' camps. ' Under a 1 flax-plantingscheme it would be unnecessary to do
'more than securo empty and.idle hut-I ments from Public Works that, are dero-Uct/ temporarily at least, and use them',to accommodate tho men.
"Let me endeavour to show where andI flax planting beats afforestation aa,a sound commercial' investment, Af-,forestation gives returns-in from 25 to ,30 years; flax in from 5 to, 10 years."Afforestation reqpires land of 'at least .fairly good quality; flax win grow pro-fitably in river-beds _and ~in land of'imuch poorer quality/ The export oftimber froiji New Zealand' may bo ro- !garded as a vain and futile dream ; 4but already there is a grfeat .bnsinessdo&e inJfco export p'f'our flax. The,fire risk is a very great .factor in af-1
-forestation; there is no- similar risk in ,the .case of flwe.,, Afforesjation is-prac-tically worthless as a' protection against )floods; flax i&<ar Taost*escell&fct' protect!tloii. ■' Much- ■ more - Height ~be 'said-' by jway of elaborating the superior iperits iof flax?growing as en-1•terprise+ but let that sttsce for the 1wotaejitl I1 Again, "if subh-a scheme as" this wfeje iundertakea as- a -national enterprise, i
'
should have the satisfaction of fosteringand encouraging both primary and sec-ondary production at tho same time.There is no. reason in the world why agreat.secondary industry,in flax shouldnot be established.' If New Zealand,supplied, only New Zealand's needs inthis' direction the business would be
• great, and would help largely in com-■ bating^-,any unemployment the future- years might precipitate, on. us. I neednot,point out that .wo .import a vaßt
.amount of jute and other goods, whichcould be manufactured from our .ownflax. Our export of flax reached itshighest, figure in 1918, when its valuewas ' £1,400,000. Since then it hassteadily declined, and for tho yearended in Juno, 1930, flax exports werevajued at £273,000. But that drop inprice need not alarm us for tho future:IPlax will always be valuable, just like
. wool, no matter what the fluctuations ofthe market, and when we are sensibleenough to manufacture our own require-ments inroad of importing them, itwill assume a greater importance thanever, and prove a great" factor in thefuture prosperity of the Dominion.
I submit the suggestion as an alter-native to the extravagant and uselessworks at present .being carried on bythe Unemployment' Board, and becauseI" think it is "one which ought to have
' been undertaken long ago.—Yours,etc,.S.M.

Reference was ma do last week by thechairman of the Australian Jockey Club,Mr Colin 0, (Stephen, to the working ofthe totalisat'ors at Randwick and atWarwick Farm, "We are all verypleased with the results of the straight'out and place machines at RandwicH,"he said. #,Vou will remember thattotalUfttor investments were driftingbadly. The total was "becoming lessand less each meeting "but since thechange from the old to the presentsystem, remarkable figures haveshown, Hot only was the drift arrest'ed, but the ,turnover showed an in'crease. We would like owners to ro-member that tho more money thatpasses through the totalisators . thegreater will be the profit of the club,and the greater will bo the prospectsof the shakes- remaining as they areor of even being increased. We are go-ing very carefully into the question ofconverting the machine at WarwickFarm into one similar to. that at Sand-wich So far we have only got to theearly stages, We do not know thecost, but I am induced to believe that itwill not be so great as Wo thought. ,?or-haps by the end of the year we .maybring abofit the Change! but it in itttlall in the air, -The conversion of themachine at Hajwlwiek was comparativelyeasy because it originally provided Cor42 horses, That at Warwick Farm, how-ever, will t»e more ftostly,''Earty 'ftp» Deceptive,

He proposed mar-riago, but the' girl's father and motherrefused their consent because he waseither getting a divorce or was divorced,In ppite of this they contjnOed to meet,although the girl's father, wajned himnot to see her.. Eventually the girl,came to the conclusion that shs hadmade a mistake, and made endeavoursto avoid him. On the day in questionthe girl attended a wedding, and thatnight ebft went to a dance, being calledfor by a man named Bves, At 7,80they left the girl'tf home in Pakowhairoad, and turned into Lyndhurst road,where they saw *a ear turned towardsa hedge, They saw the ear wasprisoner's, and prisoner was in the ear.In addition, there was evidence to showhe had been around the house prior toMiss Smith leaving for the dance. AfterMiss Smith left home it was clear
prisoner returned to BaveloCk, where hemet and talked with a resident. . It ap-peared, however, ho was, not' contest toremain in Haveloek, At 1 o'cloeknext morning Miss Smith was droppedat the front gate of her home by ©ves,and on entering the gate was hailed byNunn, .who was among seme trees, Hehad a gun behind his back, He askedher if she would marry him, and «herefused, whereupon he said, "Then I'llshoot you." He then asked her to goand alt in the ear with him, and forsome time they stood at the gate. Forsome reason she ran away, and hechased her with the gun. While shewas running away the gun was fired ather,, and she received the charge,in theback of the head, receiving serious in-jurist!. The maw .disappeared, and didnot, even wait to seo what had hap-pened, the girl being left stretched outon lawn, - This faet obviated thepossibility of accident, for in that easethe man would have gone to see whathe had done.
Contents of » Letter.There was a piece of evidence that
really settled the whole matter. Thiswas the fact that a letter was foundin Nunn's house on the night of hisarrest. The letter was in Nunn's writ-ing, and was to his daughter. It
1 showed that it wfls tha intention ofJfuim to kill the girl. It also lookedfrom the letter as if .ha intended todo away with himself. • A ■ detectivewaa quicltly, on the scene, and enseall-ing at Nuun'a house fotmd l^im, stilldressed at 3 o'clock in tha morning.'The car aleo was /warm,' and showed
•signs of rocent nse. The detective, toldhim Miss Smith had been shot, and hereplied, "Poor Mavis," The detectiveaskod Nunn if ho had a gun, and hereplied, "Yes." The detective ob-tained the gun,, and smelt the barrels,theright*hand oneproving to have beenwcently Nunn was asked wherebeen, and aald, ''l did notflhoot Mavia Smith., I way htive beeninstrumental, silly young devil."Prisoner said ho could'say who didit, but would not at the momenta Nunnsoiaesaedaringoh which was engravedtha name "Mavia," which furtherallow-ed that he was deeply itifatftated. Evi-dence would be given that Nuna wna.perfectly normal that evening, Md also
able to talk sensibly When inter-viewed''by the detfetive early next
! Evidence for tha proaaention fol-lowed on the lines of that give:a! inthe- liOwe> Court. -

said that as A' irosalt of «fteU<sltoek iatthe war ha wan in an SnfeUeb kdgpitalfor about a year. On returnins to New-Zealand contracted inUuenel, pneu-monia, and other maladies. -He Was illfor several years, and atill Bufferedfrom headaches. Ho met Misa'Smithin November, 1929, and immediatelybecame . infatuated, and she
' returnedhis affection, •' He went to Pakowhairoad after midnight, as he particularlywanted to see who brought the' 'girl,home. He had no intention-of shoot-ing her whea he'' took the gun out ofthe car. He went inside the gate aidwaited for the gIH, ,The latter dllghtodfrom a car ana started to run towardsthe house, and he' called, "Mavis.'*She stopped and came towards him. Hetola het/he didi flofc thisk she wpulcl R0out 'to parties after promising pot, to.He reminded her he had spent about-£3so on her. They walked to the gate,'

Immediately after luncheon, thecricketers prepared for play, and theguests went to the leafy-borderedlawns lo watch thq match and to meettheir friends, a great many other NewZealanders arrived to watchthe match and to have tea later on.Among them were noted; Dr. and MrsJ.

During the afternoon' the handthe BoyaJ Air Force played a peleetfonof appropriate music.
An Emergency Ooae.Mr Frank Thorogood (of the ''Daily
Chronicle") mentions a littleemergency medical case which the NewZCBland team will carry about. withthem all through the tour. I>r. AlfredThomson, the donor, stated that thiscase had' also been used by the SouthAfricans and the Australians duringtheir last tours in England, It eon*tains borie and, plain lint, oil silk, ad-hesive plasters, bandages, splints,camel hair brushes, safety plns—iofact,, every requisite for casualties onthe fleW.

"1 have not yet- found the pestfirst'aid man in the New Zealand team,"said 1 Dr, Thomson, "but dear eld'Fergy' is pretty useful and the team\yill soon find out his worth.'' Thedoctor was deferring to Mr Ferguson,the scorer and baggage ma», who h#ajousted in a similar capacity for Aus-tralian teams in England.
The Play.
Mr Thorogood writes: While nothingdefinite can bo written as yet about thecapabilities of the side, they did enoughto convince us that the same .enter-prising spirit which marked the pre-vious tour is again present. These ladsare not afraid to hit in front of thewicket, and Dempster played a delight-ful forcing game in searing his 61.
Dempster, who bit sine 4'u, was thebatsman who did so well here in theprevious tour. Though on the . smallside, he is very muscular and againpromises to get a lot of runs. MiUs,the left-hander, Was his opening partner,and these two men, who have alreadycreated a New Zealand rooord for thefirst wiekct, against the M.O.G. in NewZealand, will again lead off in Eng-land. -
At Worcester Park Mills was out he-fore he eould settle down, and fell avictim to Harold Palmer. This- is theEssex amateur who did so well againstthe Australians at Leyton last year,and«ho had the distinction yesterday ofdismissing Weir, and Vivian in ono■over. Frank Mitchell's son also gotthree wiekets. \
Vivian is the 11baby" of the team,-for ho is still under 19 years of ageand the'youngster took his "duckling"with great good humour.

A Booklet Published.A. H. H. Gilligan has written the
proface to a little booklet, neatly gotup, issued by Aiigua Thomas, Limited,,giving fixtures, photographs and re-cords of the players.

UNEMPLOYMENT.
SUSPENSION OF NO. 5
SCHEME.
FUNDS EXHAUSTED.
STATEMENT BY PRIMH MINISTER.
(nUUS ASSOCIATION TILESBiH-j
WELLINGTON", Juno 11.The suspension of the unemployment
Relief Scheme No. 5, as from June 20th.la announced in a statement issued to-day by the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon.G. \V. Forbes.
A special meeting of Cabinet wis
called yesterday, the statement ex-plains, to deal with a resolution sub-mitted by the "Unemployment Board,setting out that, at the present rateof expenditure, the unemployment fundwould bo exhausted by the end of nextweek, and that the Unemployment Boardwas faced with no other alternative thanto advise the Minister for Finance thatjunless and until further funds couldlie made available} the operationScheme >T o. 5 must be suspended.
Cabinet, after careful considerationof the resolution and tho position ofthe unemployment fund, decided that
, the operation of the * UneinploymeritBoard's Scheme No-. 5 ehquld be sus-pended on June 20th, 1031; and the fol-lowing* statement has been issued inconnexion therewith:—
Bespurces Inadequate.The fundi of the Unemployment
Board axe provided under the Unem-'ployinent Act of last year.- 'They eon«sis* solely of tho .unemployment levypayments, with. <a subsidy of £ for £

next week would be to give work to25 men, and perhaps it could do a®well in fclie following week It hadavailable for such a purpose £I6OO to£I7OO, but that amount would no,t govery far if the yhole burden fpll on theAssociation. ltd 'benevolent fund for'direct' jrelief had been - depleted an"heavy calls had been made on the con-tributions it .'had received frem
_
theCanteens Fund and the. grant fromthe National War Funds •> Council,whichs had been given to furnish em-ployment, in buying the necessities oxlife for needy people.
Misaioner's View.,
' "I am looking forward to the sus-pension of the scheme with dread,Mia.the Rev. P Revell, City Missionerand: head of the tit.. Martin's House otHelp. "The announcement has pausedme consternation, and is nothing lessthan a, tragedy."
Single- men found oxisteneo verydifficult on the 18s per week paid themunder the scheme, and in the on.week many called at the House of Helpfor assistance. It is also aiding fami-lies in distress' - Now the numbers otthose needing relief would be verymuch increased. The only hope, untilParliament decided on efficacious mea-sures, was that citizens in employ-ment, ind able to do -so, and thosewith means would come to the assist-ance of the City depots.
Presbyterian Church," The cessation of the schema seems
to be a drastio step to. take. TheChurches cannot be a substitute for
i the Board's operations," said the Rev.W. Bower Black. "They are really
I doing their utmost now, and they can-I 'not tackle the thousands of cases thatwill need-assistance'. ■"We are just about as fully organ-ised as wo- can ■ bo ,witb our socialservices and relief depots, and practi-
'cally , all our churches are providingrelief' in some form. I personallymake-regular appeals to my congrega-tion, and ther® has been: o wonderfulresponse so far.'' ,/ A Blow toLocal Bodies.
"It is a" shocking example of incom-petence," said Mr W. W. Scarff. whohas been actively engaged in reliet
commenting,on the Govern-
ment's announcement. "They mighthave, given us adequate warning, it"is"'a heavy blow to local bodies, whichHave so much work -in progress thatclosing down will - cost hundredspounds. - .School committees, whichhave undertaken improvementschemes, will be left in mid-ajr. jjp.l®is one* of the, problems Parliament wiflhave to deal with immediately it re*

the country could not allow„tiiß'' urtepiploycd to suffer extremeLdi^tfltion,.

courses ..of' action. The first is thatfira work way- be dropped altogether

able to pay, and along with this a re-Vision of the scheme m the directionof putting the men on more productivework; Unless productive work can beprovided there will be dissatisfactionon the part of those supplying the ad-ditional funds. ' The most, reasonablecourse- seems to be to increase thefunds by additional lovics.
Immediate Action- Needed."Tile matter calls for immediate
action. There jare at present in Christ-church over 4000 unemployed, though•they do not all come under the No. 5Scheme, and if the relief is suspendedit will mean very great hardship forthose at present receiving what is areally meagre wage through its opera-tion." Their necessities will have to bemet somehow.
"I am inclined to think that somesteps will )>e taken to meet the posi-tion until' Parliament meets, and, itsaction and supplementary funds fromthe levies enable the work to go on.
"The" decision of the Board meanssimpl.v that it has declined to enter
1 into obligations beyond what it canmeet, and has thrown the onus onParliament and on the Cabinet to pro-vide additional funds. The countrycannot allow thousands to be reducedto starvation , The present relief is a
i very meagre allowance, hardly suf-ficient for the men's needs, and we
! liaVe been finding in Christchurch thati what is provided is inadequate, andthat often the men have to havo some
t further charitable rid. Under the cir-cumstances the Government will haveto provide further funds, although
I difficulties will arise in doing so.Country Not so Badly Off.
"So long as some sections: of thecommunity can afford to live comfort-ably we cannot allow those who, throughno fault of their own, are unemployed,to suffer extreme destitution during thewinter months. It cannot be said thatthe people of New Zealand are so bad-ly off, that they cannot afford to keepthe unemployed above, the line of desti-tution. We have not reached the Btagewhere thousands must be allowed tostarve.
Chance to Review the Act."The action of the Board gives Par-
liament an opportunity—a much-neededopportunity—to roview the whole of theworking of the Act since it came intooperation, and the schemes under it, aswell as its present working. Tim Actwas passed on October 11th, and on Oc-tober 13th 6028 mon were registeredas unemployed, although the actual num-ber of unemployed was undoubtedlygreater. The No.' 5 Scheme was putinto operation on February 9th, whenthe total .registration was 17,000. Four-teen days later the total was 27,662 andby the end of March it was 38,028.Since this scheme started thQ registra-tions have more than The in-creases were due both to'the fact thatmen already unemployed took thetrouble to register, and also to thofact thatl actual unemployment in-creased."
NumbersGetting Belief."Tho number ofmen employed under |
the scheme is also important. The aver- jago Weekly number in March was 22,593.while in the last week of that month 1it was 29,580. The wages bill for thatweek was nearly £6ojooo, It is quiteclear that the Board, Vhen the scheme.was devised, was unablo to estimate thebuibber of persons going to be em-ployed under it, Ido not see that any-one could havo given ibe, informationnecessary; to make 1it sound.The situation announcedcomply bringsto light the need for further provision.' see thajt thpro ip any need.to accept,* the Board-'a annoHttcemeni; us,'indicating a> desperate state o£ affairs,"he- said, in' conclusion. "After all, toprovide so desper-ate'a task, for the not bank-rupt," "
EFFECT ON CITY LOAN;
THE MAYOR'S |I „ ,
• \ The ; City's plan of relieving unem-jployment/by the proposed loan will not |be able to continue if the No. 5 SchemeIs discontinued, according to a state-1ment made by the Mayor, Mr ~D. G. Sul-livan, MiP., last evening. If the 1Council approved of the loan the for-1malities would bfl goto on with, he said, ]but the Council scheme had been based ]upon the .
assumption that the moneybo subsidised by tho Un-'
employment JBoard, ' ' '„ .
"It has come as' a thunderclap, hesaid.' "Whatever we were planning wasbused on the 'No. 5 Scheihe, and itswithdrawal knocks 'tho gronnd fromunder our feet, The Government mil,have to prpvide either for a renewal of'tKff"Bcheme 'or for*' som? , substitute,'either, of which will enable us to goon with the idea of the loan, or some 11 other, means of ."assistance.^' He added

Government would permit the condition'of affairs to go on tor any length of 1time without, taking" some action, he 1said. On theassumption that the No.!5 ■Scheme would relieve the calls upon|hospital , boards, the subsidies to them|had j-beon reduced, but jihless some such Jscheme was in operation* the boards jwould*have .to carry a very heavy bur* 1den. '.
_ Unless "the Government tooksome steps to deal.with,'the situation, 1and' fo assist the unemployed and the ihospital boards, some of the people con-.corned would be.partially'starved. ,." The ■' decision of - the Unemployment,ißoard had- not greatly surprised him,he said. - When he had interviewed the 'Board' in thfe 'course of the week inconnexion with City matters, ho had ,learned that it did not know from weekto, week how- the scheme would carryon, for it--was -working on a weeklyallocation' made by the Minister forFinance, He .was very- much concernedabottt the problem raise;!, but he feltsure that Parliament would insist on'something being done.

GIFTS TO THE CITY.
ADVISORY COMMITTEESUGGESTED.
■ ■ '' ' 1 '
DEPUTATION TO WAIT; ON CITY
COUNCIL. ;
The question of the setting up of anAdvisory Committee-in connexion withthe acceptance and placing Of'gifts tothe City was discussed at last night'smeeting of-the. Ohristchurch branch ofthe Town Planning Institute of NewZealand.
The Canterbury Society of Arts wrotethat on May sth the Council of theSociety decided to support the sugges-tion that a committee be - set up forthe. purpose of advising on matterscovering the acceptance and placing ofgifts to the City. .
The Canterbury branch of the NowZealand Institute of Architects wrotethat at a 'general meeting held aboutten days prior to June 10th, the follow-ing resolution. was arrived at:—"Thatthis branch of the New Zealand Insti-tute of Architects is of the opinionthat it would be greatly in the interestsof the City if a Pine Arts AdvisoryCommittee was set up to report to theCity Council regarding all donations tothe City of an artistic nature, theirsuitability, and the best sites ori whichthey could be placed." The secretary(Mr R. S. D. Harman), in forwardingthe resolution, wrote; "Wo werestrongly of the opinion that the timeis more than ripe for the setting upof such a committee. We also thought•that it should have the power to veto/or to recommend that any unsuitablegifts be not accepted. Its composition,we thought might be as follows;TheMayor (or a City Councillor),; onearchitect, one' artist, one sculptor, oneof the Town Planning Institute, andthe City Surveyor (or' City Engineer).I am directed to urge that your Insti-tute should approach the City Counciland see if su£li a committee ean beformed. 'Wo arq prepared to co-operatewith you in any action that may benecessary." . .
Necessity for Action.The chairman (Mr A. H. Galbraith) !
said that' the suggestion was an excel- 1lent one and, incidentally, had. beenbrought forward by Mr Ilarman in anaddress before the Christchurch branchof tjhe Town Planning:Institute. Two'very important local associations hadasked'them to plac& the matter beforeth'o City Council, and he thought theyshould take immediate action. Hemoved: ''That actios' be taken on thelines indicated.'*
Mr E. C. Barker seconded, and said,that it waß a- move-in'the right direVtiou. They shoulfl* see what they coulddo to further the movement.
■ The, chairman s&id that, the composi-tion 1 of the committee- was extremelyimportant,;and a-factor that would leadto the committee functioning succefHp*'fully was that the number should not
'exceed. that suggested -iat,thet-wletterfrom the Institute of Architects.
- Mr James Culiens said that hethought that the committee was too
1 big, and that the Institute should con-tent itself with a recommendation thatsuch a committee should bo formed, i
The chairman: Yon .wduld prefer tha£ {■ the personnel should be left to theJCity ]Council? As a matter of fact, the iCouncil is. the body that possesses the'powers in regard to the City area; it Iwill have to consider whether it will |
'delegate its powers. '
\ jEmbryonic Suggestion. |
Mr W. Stewart said that the Town;Planning Institute evidently was looked 1upon by the Qther bodies as the body jthat shonld take control of the matter.!The suggestion was in an embryo'state/lHe did not agree with' the idea, that ithe proposed committee shonla defcidewhether or not proposed gifts were ac-ceptable; if the committee were formedit wonld be bettor if it indicated-howthe gifts could be made acceptable. Hewould like to see the reference to theacceptance, of gifts being-put into, dif-,
. ferent. form. He supported the pro-posal, but only in its embryonic form;it required to be put into proper shape.
Tho chairman 1 agreed that any re-commendation they, made should be inthe direction of an Advisory Commit'tee, leaving it to the City Council .todecide tfhat powers it should give thecommittee. It-was a matter Regardingwhich they should be a little,- tactfnlrIn further- remarks, Hr Galbraith saidthat several such-committees had'Tteenset up. in .England, the local authori-ties having delogated the whole' oftheir powers to them.
Mr'Stewart said that he would'liketo see the City Council have tho powerto nominate the members of the com-mittee. He suggested that the Insti-tute should appoint a member 'to beone of a deputation to wait on" theCity - Council, and ask tho two* other'societies to appoint their delegates..
It was decided that a deputationrepresenting;the three societies should.wait on the City- Council to place, be-fore it the suggestion to form a com*mittee of the character indicated. „Tfie
-other societies are to be asked to-ap-point their- delegates. ■"
Processor J. E. L. Cull was appointedto represent the Town Planning Insti-,tute on the deputation.

(FHES3 ASSOCIATION TJSLKOBAit.)
WELLINGTON, June 11. .
Claiming tjhat she had come to Wel-lington from Johanensburg'■ at the re-quest of Wolf Bozental, , a-Wellingtondraper, relying on a promise of mar-riage, Chaia Zak, a milliner, sued Bozen-tal in the Supremo .Court to-day fordamages, stating that he had refused tocarry out his part of tho contract. She
'a&ked for £ll2 special damages-andA 75 general damages. Mr, JusticeMacGregor awarded her £175 full"dam-;ages with costs on thf, lowest scdlp. 1
Plaintiff claimed £2O costs ofpassage,from Johannesburg to Wellington, less£5 contributed by the defendant,,';the
i cost Of a return passage to Johannerr.burg, £35, loss of earnings for four
I months, v £sl, accommodation in Welling-ton -£6, and general damages atotal of £l§7, also costs o& the action.
The .Defence, iThe defence admitted that the ques--
tion of marriage had been discussed,but stated ,that until the' plaintiff and
I the. defendant met at Wellington Kheirknowledge of each'other was limited to.
! the impression each had formed of the, other from correspondence -and photo-graphs. It was further stated that'the plaintiff came to Wellington underan arrangement by which the defend-ant paid a proportion of her expenses,and subject to tho condition that, if,
1 after a personal interview, they were-both of a mind to marry, the contractof marriage should take place. ' De-fendant denied- that - plaintiff's pas-sage to New Zealand was made for thepurpose of marriage, alleging that shewas lodged free of'charge alt his homeat Wellington and with her friendsuntil she procured employment atwagesequal to her earnings in Johannesburg,and that she had since become domi-ciled in Wellington. *
Plaintiff's Case.Mr Mazengarb, in opening plaintiff's
case, said that the parties were PolishJews. The match was arranged by-defendant's mother. The romancecommenced in 1929, when whohad established himself in business atNewtoVn as a . supplier of wo-men 's frocks, following, the pre-cedent established by his fore-fathers in the case of Isaac and
! Eobekah, wrote to his mother, who was! still in Poland, to choose him a wife! from among his own Thomother had no-hesitation in picking outa capable,pretty milliner, named Chain,
I Zak as being one - who could not faiJto 'please her son. The girl . was
: willing, and carried- out hei"'" inten-! tion to emigrate 1 to Johannes-burl? »with tho knowledge of Mrs
! Bozental. The mother spoke of- her asher daughter-in-law, and secured a
1photograph upon- the" would-beI bridegroom could gaze while opening
i ut) the correspondence with" the original.| The mother, as the matrimonial agent,
! had told tho girl that her son would becontented with the one she chose, but I
' the ffirl naturally expected to b$ askedI bv the man himself. Shortly after-I her arrival in Johannesburg she- re-,-
[ijeived the first,of a series of letters. ' , :
which led to. tho formation-of the con-tract to marry. Bozental also < wroteto tho girl'a parents ia Poland., Theearly letters were in Bussian^ * but hissubsequent letters and all hers were inYiddish, that baipg, the language which-furnished greater facility of expressionin a Polish courtship., The'letteredhadbeen, interpreted, -but the translationsdid not- agree. Although there we'reinevitable differences a /comparison ofthe versions showed ,a< definite- offer ofmarriage,, arida burning, desi*o on,thepart of defendant to complete'ihetials immediately upon tho girlVamvatin New Zealand. • * <) '>

1arrival by .Ebzepksu and his mother, andi ttas taken tof Ms'home, -and also to in-spect tho Bhop at -Newtown, On fhe-following day he informed-her - that the?marriage would.®ot take.place, and that,she was to go back to South' Africa.His explanation was that-he had fallenin. love yrith another gifl. ' Plaintiffwas naturally upset, and asked why hehad not tola her that he had another-girl before she had'left Johannesburg.
Evidence was given on 4 these -lines.The Verdict. 1 *'j
His Honour," delivering -judgment,-said that for more thain one reason he jtvould have preferred that the cagb ;ishould bo tried by a jury. Had -the icase been heard before a, jury there",was littlo, doubt as to how the ver-1diet would have gone. i"I am satisfied," , said his Honour,'"that in the first place defendant agreed :to- his mother, picking, for him a 'wife ;in Poland. lam satisfied that dfeferid-;ant agreed to many the, girl when .-shearrived in New Zealand, and I anvsatis-fled that tho condition raised,by defaad-/ant that plaintiff came out on approval-;has-not been proved. Defendant Wasnot at liberty to play fast and loose,in,this way., Ido not believe the "de-fendant's story that ho repudiated herbecause.-she did not come up to;hcrphotograph, as Ido not believe that'the Jphotograph does tho girl justice.

THE SCHOMBERG.
WRECKED ON MAIDENVOYAGE.
OLD HAPPENING RECALLED.
Correspondents to The Pbess recent-ly have referred to an old wreck whichwas known to exist in the early; daysat the mouth of a. creek in South West-1landj near the Hanst river," OnocOrre#- jpondent quoted Beid's "Rambles on the
! Golden Coast," in which it is stated that jthe wreck was seen in 1876, and was i
! believed to be the remains of the |Sfchomberg, which had drifted there. |
I The Sehomberg was stranded off Cape iOtway, Victoria, on the evening of De-1comber 27th, 1853, while on her maiden
i voyage from Liverpool to! Melbourne.'|The • disaster, was undoubtedly ■ due to 1the neglect and cantankerouaness of her icaptain, tie notorious "Bully" Forbes. !
The. Schombetg was.bnijt.in 1854-1855,'by Hall and. Co;, of Aberdeen, to ian order by James Baines, of,, the fam-ous-Black Ball Line. Hall and Co. hadbeen remarkably successful in the build-ing, of,the little Aberdeen tea-clippersand Balnea commissioned them" to build |a monstor emmigrant clipper to comparewith/ the Nova Scotian-built ships ofDonald Mackay, the "Lightning, the |James Baines, and the Donald Mackay.Unfortunately, - says Lubboek in his"Colonial Clippers,-" Hall had no-experi-.ence in the building of emmigrant ships,and the Sehomberg was mpro of aof Mackay's clippers" tfyin Hall's ownbeautiful little ships. The Sehombergwas of 2600 tons and cost £.43,103.
Captain Forbes, as <iommodore of theBlack Ball Fleet, was'transferred from-tho Lightning to the command of.thenew Bhip, and the Sehomberg sailedfrom.' Liverpool on October ,6th, ;1555,Amid great ,eicltement - theboastful signal "Sixty Days to Mel-bourne" flying.
Light to, moderate winds were experi-enced in the earlier part 6£ the voyage,and the ship did not make anythinglikethe. time expected of her. Running hereasting down her greatest speed wasonly 15* knots, and her best day's run-
T&6B miles. She made her first land-fallon Christmas Day, off Cape Bfldgewater,tacking in a head- wind.
Order Too Long Delayed. -
On December 27th the Sehomberg wasstill beating against a head wind, andat noon was four miles off the shore,Sho made"a long tack out "during theafternoon, but at 6'p.ni. Forbes putabout again on. the inshore tack. It wasa beautiful moonlight night, with the,wind gradually ■ falling.;'At 10.30 theniato became alarmed at'" the nearnessof the vessel to tho shore, and he . re-!ported her position to Forbes, wlid wasplaying'cards in the saloon," and -sug- igested going about. Forbes was losing,at cards, and, being out of temper,-in-sisted on playing another rubber before |tacking ship. When he appeared on deck Iat 11 o'clock and gave the order; to' isbout ship, it was too late. With a 3 to4 knot current and, little wind, thoSehomberg " refused to ' come about.Forbes then tried to wear her, but theShip ran up on a sandbank and.Stuck;fast in four fathoms. , '
On fining the ship was hard,agroundForbes said angrily, Let her go to Hell*and tell me whon she is on the beach','*and disappeared below, refusing to'as-sist in any attempt to salvage the ship,or save, the, passengers.
The nih'te,-Henry Cooper Keen," tb,entoojk charge, and succeeded' in disem-barking the passengers and crew safelyinto the boats,,all being picked up bya steamer thefollowing morning.Efforts to salvage the ship failed, Shedisappeared and was believed to havegbne-to pieces; At a mass meeting of thepassengers,.subsequen,JJiy in, Melbourne,Forbes was severely censured, it beingalleged'that he was so .disgusted withthe poor performance of the Sehom-berg that he let her go ashore on pur-pose. Even graver charges were madeagainst his personal conduct on board.He never again .got a command hi. theBlack Ball Line.
Peculiar Construction. -
If the wreck on the West Coast V?tsidentified by -Hall and Co. from- itsdescription as part of the Sehomberg,there should be little about fhematter, owing to the massive and pe-culiar, construction of ,th<- vessel. Shehad-three skins, two diagonal and one'fore and aft, the,whole fastened to-gether with screw-threaded hardwoodtrunnels. Her mainmast, of pitch-pine,weighed 15 tons, and was 42 inches-indiameter. Her main-yard was. 110 feetin length. Even to-day, .should any re-mains pf the vessel be found, it shouldbo ascertainable whether tkfcy are in-deed part of the unfortunate ship, ofwhich so much was expected and-so littleachieved, or whether they, are the re-mains of one of the many whalers-whichworked the Soland'er grounds in thevicinity of Foveaux Strait. • '

LECTURE TO SCIENTIFICSOCIETY.
Showing what an important part wasplayed in our-live# by the presence of,vitamins in. fpod, Mrs B. S. Allan ad-dressed a •well-attended meeting of theScientific Society at Canterbury Collegetest night. The lecturer pointed outthat about'26oo years B:C, there "was "aterrible disease- in the--East,, when; a.;scourge now known as beri-beri >sw,ept"throflgh Clyna. This dread disease hadappeared at intervals ever since, and itifrag not untaf comparativetyreeent yearsthat the source of the outbreaks wastraced to the nse ofpolishedlrice, which was deficient -in' vitamins.Ii was farther feundthat thia„diseisecould ' be and tfce' affectedpeople i&imediatsly by givingthem foods to. supplythe lacking vita*mips* ' v
