ORAKEI'S DESIGN.IDEALS ABANDONED.
TOWN-PLANNING VISION.
MODIFIED REALISATION.
Once a dre.im suburb of Auckland,with r. 1■•• • 11111 \* curved streets, exten-sive public ie-cr\c>. broad boulevardsand park like beauty spots, the gardensuburb ol < >rakei is to day a modifiedreality. It is no longer referred to ;is
a garden I its original planhas I -o distorted and shorn of itsif|ea!i»tie features that experts nowregard it as ju-t another opport unit vInst, and a, town-planning failure.
Instead of I4IMI building sites, theOrakei suburb will probably havenearer 2(>illi as a result, of the flovern-ment's present scheme of intensive de-velopment. .Auckland town planners dotint .11 tempt to coitcea | t heir disappoint-ment. at the sacrifice of all the out-standing features of the original plan.
The features abandoned are: —
1. The civic centre.2. Central recreational reserves.3. Srenir treatment of the headlands
overlooking the harbour.4. The university project.\nionj I lie weaknesses in the plan as
Ml pre«ent being carried out. accordingtil local C\perls, are I lie follow ing:—
1. Overcrowding; of dwellings in theState housing area.
2. Steep, narrow and circuitous streetsconnecting with Tamaki Drive.3. Inadequate provision for recrea-
tional purposes.4. Unimaginative planning of the
attractive northern frontages.5. The construction of a tangle of
power and telephone lines, whichare a blot on the landscape.Ambitious Vision.
Visions ~ft lie best planned and mostmiihitious residential developmentscheme in New Zealand, which were con-jured up ten years ago, have faded untiltr. day there is |„,f shadow of thede-igii laid out with such faithfulnttent'on to the requirement* of agarden suburb. "A glorified subdivision"was the description applied to the Orakeidistrict, by a leading Auckland townplanner to dav.
In the prize .v inning design r ,f Mr. I>.B. Hammond I lie are 1 from the wate-f 1 ont at ( lkaliu Hay. b<ick to the s lopesat a distant- 1 trom tin* beach were sciaside tor recreational purposes, includingplaying fields and gardens, which wouldjiave contributed to the beauty of thesuburb and have been een trall v* sit 1ifl tedfor t7ie whole of the Orakei population,I his portion of the sch-ine appears tohave been almost entirelv eliminated.
The site ear-marked fc\ a civic centrewas an area id' from !."> to 20 acres :itthe junction of the three main spurs orridges which form the higher levels ofOrekei—that is, at the point, where KepaRoad, Coates Aventte and the new roadnow under construction on the easternspur meet. At the present time theGovernment's housing scheme is beingextended into this area, and before longit will be completely built on.
So far about a third of the total offi7o acre« has lioen developed. In [(repara-tion for the next important stage the(lovernment is pushing ahead with itsronding work, and ultimately the 10.")acres of the golf course will be sub-divided for housing sites.
Example From Sydney."There is still time to remedy some
of the mistakes," said Mr. E. V. Blake,chairman of the Auckland branch of theTown Planning Institute, to-day. and lieindicated the possibilities of planning onthe spacious headland above BastionPoint, overlooking the Imrbour on threesides. He also pointed out the urgencyof improving the access to and from thewaterfront, particularly at the city endof the suburb, before the opportunity ofsccuririg a more direct route, or routes,
was entirely lost.Mr. Blake stated that most of the
prominent headlands around Sydneyharbour had been used for public or semi-public buildings, and treatment alongsimilar lines at Orukei would ha\erelieved to a considerable degree thedrabness of Auckland s foreshore. Atpresent the whole of the city's extensiveshore line was monopolised by cottages,residences and small buildings. Ihemuseum was the only outstanding archi-tectural feature to catch the eye ofvisitors entering port.
Dangerous Approach Streets."The greatest need of Orakei from a
traffic point of view." he said, "is abetter linking up of its streets systemwith Tamaki Drive. If this defect isnot remedied it will be a matter forpermanent regret. The only access toand from the waterfront to-day is bynarrow, steeply graded, roundaboutroutes, with dangerous corners, quiteunsuitable for fast motor traffic. Asthe volume of traffic increases, the lackof safe and easy exit roads will be aserious handicap."
The abandonment of the universityproject, said Mr. Blake, would not havebeen surprising but for the fact thatthose who took part in the Orakei gar-den suburb planning competition wererequired to provide a. space of not lessthan 4f) acres for university use. Theonly provision for education to-day wasthe Orakei School, situated on a smallpart, of the area which Mr. Hammondhad treated as a site for higher learn-ing.
Tri this and other respects the openspaces which were an essential part ofthe Orakei plan had been whittled downand it appeared doubtful whether theprovision now made was sufficient tocomply with the minimum standards ofthe Municipal Corporations Act. TheAct empowered a municipal authorityto require 5 per cent of an area forsubdivision to be set aside for publicreserves, or that the equivalent in cashbe paid. In the complete Orakei sub-division, reserves of 33J acres would benecessary to conform to this minimum.

NOT JUSTIFIED.OPINION OF COURT.
APPRENTICES' WAGE ORDER.PRESENT AUCKLAND RATES
Efforts made in the Court of Arhitration l iv the workers' sections of carpen-ters tuul joiners' apprenticeship commit-tees in a number of southern districtsto have apprenticeship wages brought inlilie uilli those ill the Northern Indus-tiial District have proved unsuccessful.In aii order just made the Court, whilelevising the wiijc rates somewhat ontile lines of those for the plumbing trade,has fixed them at a lower scale than
prevailing under the northernorder, which was made in 193t>. Mr.■Justice O'Regan said in a memorandumthat the majority of the Court was ofthe opinion that the northern ordercould not be justified.
It is an axiom of political economy—indeed, it is an obvious fact—thatwaves in any given country tend to acommon level, - ' the judge said. "Thatle\el is. in fact, never attained, mainlyowing to the varying degrees of diffi-culty in acquiring the proficiency neces-sary to follow the different trades oroccupations. Hence, even where thereis no legislative interference, there isnecessarily a proportion between therates ot wages in the trades and occu-pations into which the work of thecount i v must be divided, and it is theduty of this Court to see that that pro-portion is observed as far as possible.Hearing this hi mind, the majority of theCourt is of opinion that the northernorder cannot be justified."
'I he Court was agreed in stating thatin view of the rates fixed in various ap-prenticeship orders during the past threeyears, and having regard to the generaltrend of wages, the rates hitherto re-garded as the standard apprenticeshipra ten needed to be reconsidered in thecase before it. The majority of theCourt, however, could see no reason whythe rates prescribed in respect of car-penters and joiners' apprentices should
| not be on lines similar, or nearly simi-lar. to those recently fixed for the
I plumbing t l ade.In a dissenting opinion. Mr. A. L. Mon-
I t«»i 111. worker-' representative, declaredj that the order made in Auckland, andj anot her similarly made in PalnierstonNorth, were made by agreement of theemployers and the unions, and he be-lieved that the applications from otherdistricts should l>e made 011 the samebasis. It was very strong evidence ofwhat was a reasonable rate when bothparties agreed.

A Pact To Ensure Peace.After M. Litvinoff'* dismissal, it be-
came apparent that, the Soviet termswere so stiff and definite as to accom-plish the Kremlin's double purpose,firstly to extract a full measure of balmtor wounds received at Munich and,secondly, to make an agreement thatwould bo binding though the BritishGovernment wriggle never «o nimbly,fn short, a defensive alliance of thethree Powers, Britain, France and theL.S.S.R., backed, by a military conven-tion, to come in force the moment anyof the three or their possessions inEurope, the Near East or NorthAfrica were attacked by the Axis. TheRussians believed, and still believe, thatthus alone peace could be ensured byplacing before the Axis a barrier toostrong for it to break, especially sinceit would be backed by the moral andalmost certainly material—as far a«supplies and munitions are concerned—support of the United States.
What the U.S.S.R. wants moot atpresent is the maintenance of peace fora. variety of excellent reasons, and theU.S.S.R. thought that unless the Axiswere faced by a firm barrier, war, intowhich the U.S.S.R. wan bound to bedragged, was inevitable sooner or later.Hence, the proposed allUnce—or ratheragreement, beeausa the Russians dielikethe word alliance, w savouring ofaggressive intentions—iround which thesmaller Powers might later group them-selves for protection. It seemed im-perative to thy Russians first to get theagreement signed, and then later toarrange details, such as assistance when",n '! required. Instead of acceptingthis—in Russian eye*—straightforwardpropositmn the British, in Russianopinion, quibbled about details, each ofwhich the Russians regarded as newflvidenco of British insincerity, If notactually as attempts to u«e the Rus-sians to pull chestnuts out of the fire"mated A 1 Wh,Ch Mo]otr>*

What matters now i« to get the mainpeace pact signed and the main peacebarrier erected quickly before Herr Hit-ler has another brainwave. Moreover,however the Russians may say it is nottheir war and Molotoff talk of a com-mercial agreement with Germany—towhich indeed the proposed pact needprove no obstnele any more than thepre-war Triple Alliance or Franco-Russian Alliance or Franco-BritishEntente, prevented years of peacefultrade—the Russians have good reasonsfor signing. First their desire, whichStalin stressed in his speech, to protectthe victims or potential victims ofaggression from Fascist bullie«. Second,the realisation, as Potemkin discoveredin Bucharest, that the German-Ruma-nian so-called economic treaty involvesfar more than trade, and will become,if the Germans can carry it out as•written, the means whereby Rumaniawill be converted into a jumping-offground for an attack on the U.S.S.R.About that there is no, doubt, and theRussians know it. They know alsothat Poland's fate is ntot without inter-est. Third, Russo-Turkish relations arenow as intimate and friendly as of yoreafter the coolness that followed Mon-treux, and the Soviet hopes to form aBlack Sea Pad and to round it offwith the interlock of a Turkish pactwith Persia and Afghanistan. And al-ways, last and first and foremost, theRussian desire to avert war and theRussian conviction that war can onlvbe averted by a strong and united peacefront,—N'.A.X.A.

NOT VALUED?
WOOL OFFERINGS.
" BUYERS PLAYED GOLF."
FARMERS' COMPLAINT.
<By Telegraph.—Press Association, j
CHRISTCHURCH, Wednesday.Some sharp criticisms of the present
wool-selling methods was expressedwhen the Xorth Canterbury provincialexecutive of the Xew Zealand Farmers'Union debated a remit from a countrybranch that more time should be allowedbuyers for valuing wool.
In the discussion one member referredto a sale in Wanganui for which prac-tically no valuing had been done. Healleged that various ]>eople had enter-tained buyers at golf and other games.Little of the catalogue was valued andafter the sale had gone part way thebuyers simply sat back and did not bid.There had been a bitter argument aboutthe position and some hard things weresaid afterward.
Mr. G. C. Warren, who is a memberof the Wool Publicity Committee, saidthat if time for valuing was to beallowed the sales would have to be cutto a maximum of 24,000 bales. A fewyears ago that had been decided on,and it had been kept for a time, butsome growers had complained abouttheir wool being kept back for latersales. The size of catalogues had beenextended, and the result had been thatat one Auckland sale more than 30,000bales had l>ecii in the auction.
The president. Mr. I. L. M. Coop, saidthere seemed no doubt that tb« presentsystem was faulty. C'hristchurch wasthe only centre which had kept to the24-000-bale maximum.
'"It would be all ri<>ht if we put alock on the golf course,' said anothermember, after the report about enter-tainment before tl»e Wanganui sale hadbeen mentioned.
It was finally decided to send on theWaiati branch's request for more timefor valuing to the Wool Allotment Com-mittee.

RIALTO OPENS AGAIN.
FIRE DAMAGE IN MARCH.
Another modern picture theatre will lieadded to Auckland's list when the RialtoTheatre, Xewmarket, under the controlof Amalgamated Theatres, Limited.Villbe reojiened this evening followingextensive alterations which have beenmade since it was damaged by fire of anunknown origin in March.
The interior of the theatre has beenalmost entirely rebuilt and modernisedto conform with the latest advances indesign. The proscenium and stage effectsare unusual, with modern lighting effects.The interior walls have been finished withthe latest fibrous plaster effects withconcealed lighting, and so constructedthat there is no interference with thenatural ventilation—a recognised diffi-culty in theatre architecture. This hasbeen overcome by a special treatment ofgrilles which do away with the need ofspecial pumps and similar contrivancesto ensure sufficient fresh air.
Tho whole of the ceiling has been re-designed for dignity and pleasingappearance, and the colour motif adoptedfor the furnishings is a plum shadewith blue seat coverings, the seats them-selves being fully sprung. The wholeof the heating apparatus has been over-hauled and is now on the new "firesidecomfort" principle. In addition tooverhauling and modernising the soundequipment, those responsible have speci-ally treated the walls in the interestsof acoustic properties, to remove alltendencies towards reverberation. Thewhole of the interior has been re- Jdecorated in colours to conform with thefurnishings, and the foyers, which arecommodious, have been entirely re-furnished. j
This evening the theatre will be ireopened with the presentation of !"Gunga Din." the rousing story of thenorth-west frontier of India, in which 'Douglas Fairbanks, jun., Cary Grant Iand Victor McLaglen have the main 1roles. j
NEW TEACHERS.
EIGHT HUNDRED A YEAR.STILL MORE WANTED.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, Wednesday.Despite the fact that 800 new teachers
arc available from the four training col-leges each year, it will be from eightto ten years before the profession inXew Zealand reaches the strength, aimedat. said the president of the Xew Zea-land Teachers' Institute, Mr. D. C.Pryor, to-day.
Mr. Pryor, who is at present on atour of the South Island, emphasisedthat it was the aim of both the Gov-ernment and the institute to reduce thesize of classes, in schools. The greateststep in this direction had been thestalling of schools on the peak rollsinstead of i.n the average roll as in thepast. This bad absorbed many additionalteachers, but little more could be doneuntil more teachers would be available.
Mr. Pryor pointed out that of theSOO teacher* coming from the trainingcolleges each year half were required tofill the places of those retiring fromthe service.

SCOTTISH REGIMENT ACTIVITIES.
Keenness has been the keynote of therecruiting activities of the X.Z. ScottishRegiment—and in Christchurch so keenare the members that extra long drillnights Are held so that high efficiencymay be speedily attained.
Unfortunately, the other night, at theend of a long, strenuous parade, thesergeant-instructor's voice faded andnearly gave out altogether.
"Bring some 'Baxter's' next time,"came an anonymous call from the rankswhen the parade was dismissed. And agood idea, too. There's nothing likeBaxter's Lung Preserver for soothingsore throats, relieving huskiness and forremedying coughs and colds.
"Baxter's" cuts phlegm, reduces in-flammation of the bronchial tubesalmost from the first dose. "Baxter's"is pleasant to take—children love it—and its tonic action helps set you upafter heavy colds and 'flu. Alwayskeep a bottle handy.

WORST EVER.PAST DAIRY SEASON.
HEAVY LOSS INEVITABLE.
REVIEW OF THE FACTORS.
(By Telegraph.—Tress Association.)WELLIX<;TOX, Wednesday,
Diminished dairy production as a
■ result partly of the weather and partlyof labour <-o~t- was reported liv thechairman. Mr. Arthur Morton (EgmontVillage), in his opening address to tileNational Dairy Conference to-d«y. The
i Government was going to sustain a(severe loss, he said. The Minister of; Marketing, the Hon. \V. Xash. had pro-I mised that if the industry would accept
; a stabilised price labour also would| stabilise its prices, but that had not|been effected.i The jmsr season was the worst ever
; known in the dairy industry, the worstlie could himself remember in more than
years' experience, said Mr. Morton.The industry had also been affected,however, by very serious labour condi-tions. These two factors had very detri-mentally affected production. The resultsof tlie coming teason would provewhether, as lie hoped, the falling off wasmainly the result of climatic causes orof the great difficulties of labour oildairy farms.
Ihe amount of the decrease wasserious. There was a decrease of ti percent the previous season, and a further11 per cent for the year just concluded.It was estimated that the decrease inbutter production amounted to IS.OOOtons.
Coming Season's Price.'T think the question most exercising
the minds of the dairy industry <it pre->ent is the question of what price it is.-oin:: to receive for its produce duringthe coining year," the chairman said.The committee appointed at New Ply-mouth last year to watch over theinterests of the industry was .-till
! functioning. Bv reason of the absence ofMr. Nash in England there had been nooppiirtiiuity to discuss the position(hiring the liir-t few months, but Mr.Xash wtts understood to be returning tothe Dominion in a few weeks and nego-tiations would then be re>umed.
The committee set up at Xew Plv-mouth fortunately was insisting that theMinister should accept the recommenda-tions of the Price Advisory Committeein all its aspects, and that, in Mr. Mor-ton's opinion, was the correct attitude.Whether the Minister would be preparedto accept it was another matter.
Unfortunately. marketing resultsthis year had not been good,Mr. Morton added. The Gov-ernment w.is undoubtedly going tosuffer a great loses. Sjieaking in Dunedinrecently, the acting-Minister of Market-ing, the Hon. W. Lee Martin, statedthe lor.s up to May 2.5 as X1.527.000.I hat debt would now be greatlv in-creased. There was no possibility of theGovernment coming out this year withouta considerable deficit, and all Mr. Xashhad in hand was a small surplus fromthe previous year amounting to about£500,000.
WET FEET—WATCH OUT!Don't take chances—take "Baxter's*'straight away. Baxter's Lung: Preserver
is your best safeguard against coughs,colds, chills and sore throats. Keep abottle of "Baxter's" handy all the yearround. "Baxter's" has a tonic, action,too. «p. sure it's "Baxter's"—i/o, 2/6,4/6, chemi.-ts and stores.— (Ad.)
ROAD FATALITY.
HELP NOT SOUGHT.
TRUCK DRIVER'S ACTION.
APPEAL COURT HEARING.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
'W ELLINGTON, Wednesday,
The death of a motor cyclist andpillion rider near Mosgiel on April 15was recalled in the Appeal Court to-<lay, when a case arising from theaccident was under consideration.
Ihe facts, as outlined in the SupremeCourt at Dunedin in May, 'were thatA\ illiam Alexander Tait was driving amotor truck when it collided with amotor cycle, killing Xeil Harris and Vera1 hoinson. After the accident, whichoccurred at night, Tait drove awayfrom the scene and then decided tocome back. He got out of the truck,went to where Harris was lying andsaw that he was dead. He got backinto the truck and drove away withoutreporting the matter to anyone ortaking any further steps whatever. Taitdid not notice there were two victimsand tlnit Mi-.< I homsnii also was killed.
The judge told counsel and the jurythat in tlie event of Tait being con-victed on charge* or failure to renderall practicable assistance to two injuredpen-ons and of failing to ascertain Jhutlie had injured one Vera Thomson, hewould state a case for the Court ofAppeal as to the correctness of hisdirection® in summing-up. The juryfound Tait not guitly of driving in astate of intoxication and causing thedeaths, but guilty of negligent drivingcausing the deaths and guilty on theother charges, in accordance with thejudge's directions.
The Court of Appeal was asked todecide whether the conduct of Tait inleaving Harris on seeing he was deadand making 110 attempt to render assist-ance justified conviction for failure torender all practicable assistance to twoinjured persons; whether the conductof Tait in respect of Miss Thomsonjustilied a conviction on this count;whether the fact that Miss Thomsonwas killed outright touched the correct-ness of the verdict of guilty of failingto ascertain that he had killed VeraThomson.
The Court reserved its decision.

BRIGHTER TONE.
FAVOURABLE WEATHER HELPSGRASS STIIX, GROWING.
Since hist review ihe general trend ofthe export markets lias been fairly steady.All the chief classes of Dominion product■He meeting a good market in Great Bri-tain at the present time, and recent valuesha\e been maintained at moderate levels.
M oatlwr conditions have been i'avoui-alile ior Auckland farmers dutin-j the'"""tli <>i dune. There lias been a laiu-lall well above the average, but. ;ollou-itit: a long dry spell, it has been verywelcome. particularly as temperatures haveremained comparatively high lor the time
-v c''" • conditions in the country out'\\ aikato correspondent writes:--
(t ;s many years since Waikato liaswitnessed such a splendid growth duringtlie winter period. Although one sevi-iciii-.-t was experienced last week, tiltcountiv generally ban developed a sprint'-like appearam-e and placts short of feeda ' y'' months ago have now recoveredsulliriently to relieve the anxiety o!owners. It was thought at one stage thathay would reach abnormal prices, butI" fs.-Mit indications are that farmers will""I. need anything like the quantity thiswinter as m previous years. It is recog-nised there is ill considerable time tngo before spring definitely sets in, but itin generally conceded that once tin'shortest day is over t'ho harshness otwinter is not so severely felt.
A Hardening Tendency.( onditions in the stock markets remain
nun ii the same as in the few previousweeks, although most sections are show-ing a hardening tendency. This is especi-ally so in the sheep section, which hastor many months been extremely quiet.However, there seems to be a generalinquiry tor all classes of bleeding ewes,and, strange to nay, vendors are notat.xious to- quote even at improved juices.Store wethers and hoggets have improvedslightly, but not to the same extent asbreeding ewes.
A fairly firm market exists for beef,with quantities of prime quality cattlebecoming shorter. Boner cows and roughbeet are also showing signs of a decline1in numbers.
More activity has been displayed in thestore eattle section, and now that thrK.ist Coast cattle have practically finishedcoming to Waikato for the season it issurprising the inq twy which has suddenlydeveloped for thwf -class. Local yarding:-'omprise chiefly oddments, with an i:n-proved demand for yearling Jersey heifers

INSIDE BARS.WARDER LOOKS BACK.
"ONLY SONS" AS CRIMINALS.
LOME SURPRISING FIGURES
Three-quarters of the criminal* in NewZealand gaols were either only sons oronly children. Eighty per cent of theperverts wore not horn in New Zealand.
The*c striking statements were madeto-day liv an ex-warder who related hi*experiences to the ".Star." He madeextensive record* over a long period ofyearn, he said, and had come to the con-clusion that in the majority of thefir.it essays into crime had been due tolaxity in the upbringing of children.
"I have been present at many harrow-ing interviews in prison,'' he naid. "Therehdvo been tearful mothers and resentfulyouth*. Often I have heard the remark.*Tf only you had been more strict withme I would not be here now. mother.'
"I would po further than this. Iwould say that a few pood thrashingsadministered to spoiled children insteadof giving thein everything they wantedwould liavo saved them from n life ofcrime. I have seen cases where it shouldbe the parents who should be in gaolinstead of their children."
The warder said that he had been atNew Plymouth gaol, where the sexualcases were imprisoned, and the moatthat they accommodated at one. timewas below 90. His investigations showedthat only 20 |>er cent of the*e were NewZealand-born and he believed that thecame proportion held good to-day.
Never Had Trouble.In his long experience he had never
had any trouble with the prisoners inhis charge, said the warder. On oneoccasion only had he fired his rifle, andthat was over the head of an escapingprisoner. "That was at Sew Plymouth,"he said. The prisoner* Mere going tothe quarry one morning and thi* man,who was on a life sentence, ran over a■bank and attempted to get away. Whenbe saw that h« would have to come outinto the open he changed hii mind andcame back again.
"At the old Lyttelton gaol there wasa young man who had seriously assaultednn old man and had a heavy term. Fora time we were frightened of this fellow.He hud brainstorm* during which hewas not accountable and was capable ofbraining a warder or fellow-prisoner.Between these attacks he was a sober,rational and intelligent prisoner.
I "As the result of representations madea delicate operation was j>erformed bva socialist., portion of the skull beingremoved. It was found that the in*ideof the skull was three times thickerthan that of a normal man. also that aquantity of fluid had collected. Whenthis, was removed and the o|>eratioii suc-cessfully completed this prisoner becamenormal and, as far a* I know, ha* notpiven any further trouble. His was acase where prior medical attention wouldhave prevented the crime that was com-mitted.
Prisoners Gain Weight.".Many of the prisoner* used to com-
plain that they were losing weight, andl>larned the prison fare. Actually I neverknew of any prisoner who lost weight.The nirtjority gained, due to the exercise,regular hour* and regular meal*. 111frequently happened, however, that atthe end of a long term, say seven orten years, that a man went downhillin the la*t six month*. It was thereaction of preparing to face the worldagain.
"To some old men, the vag*. and incor-rigibles, gaol was a kind of home. Iwas disappointed in these. They wouldcome to us in a verminou* condition,ragged, starving and sometimes soddenwith alcohol. In three months we wouldhave them cleaned up, put «ome fleshon their bone* and *end them out tothe world in warm clothes, with a goodpair of boots on their feet. In a fewmonths, despite their fervent promises
i when they went out. they would be back[again; pitiful wreck* of humanity.
"But it wa» not all gloom and depression," continued the warder. "Therewsis one prisoner at Lvttelton whom Iwill always remember. He was anIrishman, and a rat burglar who had<»et Chrintchurch by the ears. He pot asentence of five years, but it did not*eem to worry him. He had no regretsfor what lie had done, and said franklythat he had no intention of goingstraight again. He was a merry soul.Once when he had marched ont to thequarry I fomd that. I had left behindthe key* of the many tool bostM. The 1
Irishman picked up a piece of fencingwire and had them open in a fewseconds.
Sailor's Tragedy."His *tory wa* a tragic one. He was
a sailor and had worked hard for hismate'* ticket on a tea clipper in orderto marry. When he succeeded he planneda surprise vi*it to Ireland to claim hisbride—and met her funeral processionas he entered her village. He turnedawav and slipped into a life of irre-sponsible crime.
"There was one man who gave menerves. He was a country youth, whohad been condemned to death for abrutal murder. Tn a fit of jealousy hehad cut off a girl's head. Later lipjumped down a well, but ultimatelygave himself up to the police. Whilewaiting in the condemned cell he brokedown completely and acted like a mad-man when the warders approached hint.The day before he was due to die hewas reprieved.
"The following day lie was taken outto the quarries with the other prisonersand on returning to the gaol wassearched, in the ordinary routine. 'Goodheavens.' lie said, 'do I have to put upwith this? I wish I had been hanged.'After this expression of gratitude I wasinclined to wish that he had been,"added the warder.
The Eggers Case.He stated that he had been present
at the hanging of Frederick WilliamEggers at Lyttelton gaol on March 4,1018. Eggers, alias McMahon, waylaidthree men who were carrying the payto the Runanga mine. Tliev were JohnCoulthard, Isaac James and WilliamHall. All were shot. Coulthard beingkilled instantly, James reco.ering andHall dying from his wounds. "Eggerswas a brutal man and thoroughlydeserved to die," said the warder. '"Hetold me that he had been recognised bva boy cyclist, and said that the onlyImistake he had made had been to letthis bov live. He said he should havethrown him into the river. None of the.warders trusted him. |
"Yet when he went to the scaffoldEggers died like a man. He walkedfirmly and talked himself into fiveminutes more of life by passionatelvprotesting his innocence.

The minister,who had asked to attend him in the'last rites, was the one who nearly col-lapsed and was unable to stand thehorrible strain of an execution." i
SNACK-BAR BRIDE.NOW MILLIONAIRESS.
WIFE OF CHICAGO PLAYBOY.HUSBAND KILLED IK BRAWL.
NEW YORK June 2.Louise Abatiello, aged twenty-three,
fix months ago a roadside snack-barwaitress earning penny tijus from motor-ists, is to-day a millionairess.
To her goes the £1.000,000 estate ofPotter <l'Or*ay Palmer, Chicago play-boy, whose fourth wife she was.
Potter Palmer died after being in-jured in a brawl near Bradenton.Florida.
[ At his bedside in Sarasota Hospitalwere Louise and his parents, Mr. and-Mrs. Honor Palmer, who stronsrlvop|>osed the marriage of Potter andIvouise last December.Even with his parents leaving Pot-ter out of their will because of hismarriage to the waitress he was amillionaire.He had a one-third interest in the£3,000,000 estate of his grandmother,Mrs. Potter Palmer.This, legal authorities say, will now
go to his widow—Louise.Potter, who was thirty-four, married
hleanor Goldsmith, then aged sixteen,in 1928.After a Paris divorce, he marriedAlalia Martinez de Hoz, Argentinebeauty. She obtained a divorce lastyear. The following day he marriedPauline Warren, who divorced him onNovember 30 last.Six days later he married Louise
Abatiello, the snack-bar waitress.
SECRET DOCUMENT.
FOUND IN ASHBIN.
WAS TAKEN BY MISTAKE.THEFT CHARGE DISMISSED,
(By Air Mail.)
LONDON, June 5.A secret document, said to have been
taken by mistake from the Government's£4.000.000 arms factory at Monkswood.
and found by a little girl in an ashbin atMonmouth, was produced in Court atUsk.
George Hooper, aged 45, once a fore-man at the factory, was cleared of acharge of stealing it.
"You are a victim of circumstances."Lord Raglan, the chairman, told him,"partly due to your own carelessness,because you had this plan and failedeither to destroy it properly or to returnit to your work; and also to the factthat you were going under a false name."
The magistrates gave tlicir decisionwithout calling on defence.
Lord Raglan added. "We think themanner in which these plans are lookedafter is very strange. They are appar-ently issued to people, but they are notchecked, counted, or numbered. It is aremarkable way of dealing with whatare supposed to be secret documents."
Playing With Brother.Eleven-year-old Mary Smalldon said
she was playing with her brother whenshe found the plan, which her father.James Henry Smalldon, took to tjiepolice.
She listened proudly while Lord Rag-jlan said: "She and her father did apublic service which might have been avery important one."
Mr. Griffiths Williams, defending,iasked Detective-Sergeant Haines whetherhe had verified that the turnover ofHooper's business in 1034 was more than£10,000 a week. "He was in a verylarge way of business," said the sergeant.
Three ye.-rs later, according to Hooper,he had. a nervous breakdown and went
back to bricklaying, adopting the nameof George Scott, because he could not getwork in his own name.
At Monkswood he slwred a hut with aman who took plans back there. He wasunaware that the plan was left in thehut. Just before Easter he went toMonmouth. He cleared out his rubbish,and the plan must have been put out atthe same time,"I must have brought it away with me
by mistake," he said when charged.
MURDER MYSTERY.
SPARROWS PROVIDE CLUE.
WHO WAS WOMAN VISITOR.
(Special—By Air Mail.)
LONDON, June 5.Two Java sparrows, imprisoned in acage, witnessed the murder of Mr.Walter Dinnivan at Branksome, Poole,Dorset.This fact may seem unimportant, butthe fact that they were fed by a mem-
ber of Mr. Dinnivan's family a fewliours before his death is most im-portant.
Some of the bird seed was upset onthe carpet and under the table duringthe feeding process.
At that time it was noticed that therewas nothing on the floor except the seed.
When Mr. Dinnivan was discovereddead by his grandchildren, a woman'shairslide and pin were found beneathtlie table.
One of the problems of the police hasbeen to established the presence of awoman in the room when the murderwas committed.
It is almost certain that a woman| must have visited the flat during theI absence of the grandchildren.
°
The police have some clue to theidentity of a man who was present, butthe ownership of the slide and pin isproving difficult to ascertain. '
Detectives are still trying to solve themystery of the man who was seen torun on to Branksome railway stationon the night of the crime and board atrain without a ticket.
It is thought that he may have beendrinking.
CRIME WAVE.BOY GANGS ACTIVE.
POLICE ARE KEPT BUSY.
MELBOURNE AND SUBURBS.
(From Our Own Correspondent.)
MELBOURNE, June 23.A wave of crime by boys between
eight and 16 is sweeping Melbourne andsuburbs. Police say the boys work bothjin prangs and alone, and some are ex-tremely cunning. Others, they say,flaunt their success with a bravado thatmakes capture easy.
Policc declare they have never beenkept so busy investigating offences bychildren.
| Working alone in the early morning,la 13-vear-old desperado held up news-
|hoys around Brunswick and Coburg atpistol point. In the daytime he pulledmessenger boys from their bicycles andthrottled them practically unconscious.
| Another lone worker forced a house!window with an axe and then wipedaway all finger and footprints with asheet of newspaper. He said he learnedthat trick from a crime magazine.
At Armadale, a picture theatre runnerthreatened to punish some boys inter-fering with his motor cycle. On his re-turn to the theatre he was attacked bya group of boys armed with sticks.
One lad of 16 will appear in Courtsoon on a charge of having been drunkand disorderly. It is the first case ofits kind in memory. Picture magazines,the aftermath of the depression, andtoo much freedom are blamed for theincreases.

CONVINCING GERMANY.
For the cause that lacks assistance.For the wrong that reeds resistance.For the future in the distance,And the good that ice can do.
Gloomy prophecies of international woeare easy to come upon in these years. Theeffect el them when often repeated, as theyhave been, i~ to produce a spirit of fatalism,relieved only hv the thought that prophetshave been wrong in the past mid may hewrong again. Nevertheless, serious attentionmust be given to the statement made onTuesday by M. Daladier, both because ofthe position he holds and because he hasseldom talked in the .-aine way in the past.He i- in a position to know the facts..Mr. Churchill, who endorses t lie FrenchPrime Minister's view, is also exceptionallywell informed, and because of his unofficialposition he is able to speak more freelythan M. Daladier. But, though they havespoken with different degrees of precision,they have said the same thing. M. DaladierU convinced that "we are to be faced this-mniner with a choice between peacefulcollaboration between peoples, or dominationby some of them. ..
. France will raise allher forces against possible ventures towarddomination. ..." Mr. Churchill bluntlydeclares that the Nazis, if they fail tointimidate Poland, Avill attack her, and ifthey do Britain and France will be "forcedto declare war." It is impossible to believethat either speech would have been madewithout full knowledge of Germany'sapparent intentions.
Germany, however, will not provoke awar until her leaders are convinced thatthey cannot gain their ends by bluff andintimidation. They may not, even then,provoke it. Whether they do or not willdepend in large measure on their leaders'estimates of their chances of success, andone obvious purpose of both M. Daladierand Mr. Churchill (and of Mr. Chamberlainat Cardiff last week) is to convince theGerman leaders that this time theiropponents are wide-eyed and ready for them.The facts of British and French rearmamentare of course well known in Berlin, butarms are only the instruments of policy.Whether they are to be used, and in whatcircumstances, depends finally on thedetermination of a few men sitting in aCabinet room. Is the policy firm? If theGerman leaders believe it is not they willconceive that in bringing pressure on Poland(assuming that Danzig not Rumaniais the real objective) they will not run intoreal danger. It is, unfortunately, notimpossible that the German leaders thinkthat they can succeed even if the Reich hadto meet the armed forces of Britain andFrance, but it is unlikely that they wouldtake the risk. But if they wrongly believedthat Britain and France would at the lastmoment " back down," they would plungeEurope into war as certainly as if theyintended it. Hence the importance ofmaking it clear, in such a way as to leaveno possible room for doubt, that Britainand France mean what they say.
LIGHT PROGRAMME.Parliament's set programme of legislation
in the session now begun is notably small.It compares strangely with the programmeswhich the Government prepared for the lastParliament. The most important billappears likely to be that relating to taxation,which presumably will not appear until thereturn of Mr. Nash. Notable absentees arcthe bills, introduced in the last Parliament,to amend the Education Act and to bringabout the amalgamation of local Ifbdies.Their absence is regrettable, for each ofthem attempts to deal with a problem whichhas long called for treatment. Does theGovernment expect Parliament to bfc toobusy to discuss education and local bodygovernment, or is it simply eschewing allcontroversial legislation that can be avoided ?
Another absentee hard to account for isMr. Semple's amendment of the trafficlegislation. This was prepared for lastsession. It will be surprising if Mr. Sempleallows it to be dropped again. Theannounced programme does not suggest thatParliament will be overworked; indeed,unless the Address-in-Reply debate isfatuously prolonged, there does not seem tobe enough work in prospect to keep thelegislators occupied until Mr. Nash has hisBudget ready.
NATIONAL FRIENDSHIPS.
The bitter hostility of the totalitarianStates to anything which has a flavour ofdemocracy about it makes an understandingbetween the free peoples more necessarythan ever it was, and any factor which willextend friendships among those peoplesdeserves all possible encouragement. TheEnglish-Speaking Union, a branch of whichwas formed in Auckland on Tuesday, hasalready done much for Anglo-Americanamity, and its influence is steadily growing—both in the Empire and in America.Originally formed in London, its Americanmembership is now double that of Empirecountries, and the keen interest in theorganisation displayed by leaders of thoughtin the United States is one of the happiestanjruries for a still better understandingbetween the two peoples. New Zealand isespecially interested in the growth of goodfeelinsr in the English-speaking world. Ifonly for reasons of self-interest, Aucklandshould welcome the formation of a branchof the union here, but the interest in it iswider hen thnf, •• id useful and honourableta.-ks lie ahead of the new organisation.
NEWS OF THE DAY.Broken Line Delays Trams.
\\ lien a trolley power line broke nearXortheote Hoad. tirey Lynn, shortly aftereight o'clock this morning, a long string oftraincars from western suburbs was held upfor 20 minutes. Two Transport Hoard break-down trucks made emergency repairs, butmany passengers preferred to walk to Pon-sonby Road in an effort to reach their placesof business in time. TTowever. there weremany workers to whom the stoppage meant alate arrival.
Taxi Cabs Busy.As a rule, a slack period is experienced
bv taxi cab drivers between noon and •_! o'clockin the afternoon, particularly in the suburbs.This was not so yesterday, however, when afew showers of rain caused a heavy demandon the services of the drivers. In some ofthe suburban taxi ranks, where -there arenearly always at least two or three cubswaiting, there were none, and most peoplewanting cabs had to wait for some timebefore their requirements could be satisfied.
Answer to Criticism.A statement that the Auckland Hospital
Hoard was spending £10.004) a year 011 main-taining the Wilson Home for crippled childrenwas made by the retiring chairman. Mr. A.L. Spence. at the annual meeting last nightof the Auckland branch of the New ZealandCrippled Children Society. Mr. Spence addedthat the board had given an assurance • thatit was prepared to accept this charge on itsfunds. fn his opinion these facts should be
a complete answer to those who said that thesociety should never have allowed the controlof the Wilson Home to pass out. of its hands."Dreary Beat to Windward."
The work done by the executive had beenhard, and s*<mel imes without seeming result,said the president. Sir Krne-t Davis, speakingat the annual meeting yesterday afternoon ofthe Auckland division of the British UmpireCancer Campaign Society. He described tin-labours of the executive in nautical terms, asa "dreary beat to windward." The work,however, had been carried 011. and now some-thing tangible had resulted. Sir Krnest alsofelt that the community owed a great debt ofgratitude to the medical profession. Too oftenthe doctors' unselfish and self-effacing workdid not receive the recognition it deserved.
Spectators and Players."Being. I suppose, a typical American. I
was astounded a. few weeks ago at Helen Parkto see a few Training College students out towatch their side play.'' said Dr. A. K. Botts.of New York, in an address at the AucklandCreditmen's Club luncheon yesterday. "ButT found out that perhaps ten or a dozen otherteams were playing football and other sportson the same day. and the reason was thereforeapparent. That seems to me to bo one of thegreat differences between my country andBritain—we are spectators, and you are parti-cipants. And that difference would appear toextend into world relations, or world sports,if you like."
Social Workers Busy.the funds and other resources of
the social - organisations in Auckland havebeen as heavy in recent months as during thecorresponding period of last year, and thereis no sign of any reduction since the socialsecurity ilienefits came into operation. "Weexpected the position would lie relieved, butthere-seems to be as much work for us to-dayas there was last winter." said the ltev. JasperCalder. Auckland City Missioner. this morn-ing. "We have been very busy, and have hadto turn away applicants for clothes and other
I comforts, which are essential at. this reason.The social security payments are a consider-able help in many cases, but they do notenable people to buy clothes, footwear, blan-kets and "other things they must have. Ourrelief activities cost us £100 more for theyear ended last March" than in the previous 12months, and the cost has continued heavy inthe past three months."
Education on Cancer.As publicity directed to the education of
the general public in regard to cancer hasbeen found to serve a pood purpose in Americathe possibility of doing something similar inNew Zealand is to be investigated by themedical committee of the Auckland divisionof the British Empire Cancer CampaignSociety. Such a move was decided 011 at theannual meeting of the society yesterday, whenMr. .T. M. Clark, director of surgery at theAuckland Hospital. cited what had been donein the I'nited States. In IU2O. lie said, it wasfound that only 20 per cent of tin- patientssuffering from cancer were operable. As theresult- of a widespread publicity campaign. thepercentage was raised to over SO per cent.He suggested that a publicity or an educationcommittee should be set up to work in NewZealand. The medical committee was in-structed to deal with the matter, and considerthe advisability of appointing a special educa-tional committee.
Australian Timber Barred.Permission has been refused the Waimate
County Council to import lmrd wooil timberfrom Australia. At a meeting of the counciladvice was received from the Collector of Cus-toms. Tiinaru. that an import license couldnot be granted for a supply of Australianhardwood timber, a tender for which had beenlet to H. -T. R. Somerville and Company.Timaru. The council was recommended toendeavour to obtain supplies of Xothafagusfusca or Xothafagus truncata timber fromTnvercargill or Hokitikn. The county clerk.Mr. Tj. .T. Collins, said he had written to theController of Customs, pointing out that thetender had been let for the supply of bridgetimber, and explaining that it had been foundthat New Zealand timber was not satisfactoryfor the council's bridge requirements. Thetimber was already cut in Australia, and wasready for shipment. He had asked to havethe matter reconsidered. The engineer, Mr.\V. P. Black, said Australian timber would lastthree times as long in bridges as New Zea-land varieties, and he thought that the councilwould have to consider using concrete. Itcould even make concrete slabs for decking,but some of the stringers in the countybridges would not at present carry -eonereteslabs.
Newspaper Advertisements in 1860.It is not always in the news columns of
old newspapers that we can learn most aboutbygone times and manners. The advertise-ment columns of such a paper as the "NewZealand Spectator" arc full of interesting side-lights. The issue of July 11. 1800. gives us theinformation that totara timber was selling for14/ per 100ft, that a dentist's hours were 10
a.m. to 4 p.m., and that desirable buildingsites were for sale in the town of Beaver, theold name for Blenheim. "It possesses a news-paper and a Customs house" are mentionedas attractions. The Wellington .GrammarSchool was shortly to open under the head-mastership of Mr. n. Bcechy. There is a re-minder that the Maori War was in progressin the advertisement of Captain JerninghamWakefield (son of the great Edward Gibbon)calling for volunteers for the WellingtonYeomanry Cavalry, to provide their ownmounts and accoutrements. But an insurancecompany had a cold douche to apply to all butthis moderate martial ardour, rather-under-lining that the volunteers were only for homedefence. It extended Its ordinary life coverto men in the volunteers, but any policy-holderenlisted in the militia, at grips with theMaoris, would have to pay an percent on their premiums*
Egyptian Darkness."As dark as an Egyptian night when
I there is 110 moon." was the description givenof n certain road in Mount- Koskill by Mr. R.
j K Sanft oil Tuesday at the meeting of thej Bond Hoard. 'I lie street lighting question wasunder discussion when Mr. Sanft said thelight in a certain road could not be seen forabout 300ft. as it was overshadowed by thehigh buildings. The board will take steps togive light in the darkness.Stop Thief!
People at the foot of Queen Street weresurprised one evening recently to see twoyoung men running down the street, the firstwith a hag and the second shouting "Stop,thief!" in the recognised style. A policemanturned towards them, but did not interfere,which was just as well for the two youngmen concerned. After attending lectures at
j the university they had decided to make a1dash for the early boat. One had not beenvery keen 011 the run. so the other snatchedhis bag and went "full out" down the wharf.
Causes of Lower Exports."Little of the fall in Xew Zealand's ex-
port values can be charged to lower overseasprices, except in the case of wool," says theBureau of Importers, in submitting to thePrime Minister proposals for a change in Gov-ernment policy. "The fall is due to severalcauses." adds the bureau. Tnter alia, facialeczema, a bad production season and higherwage costs. Production has been affectedchieily by the shorter working week, and therise in the wage level, which make it difficultfor farmers to employ labour. This is parti-cularly noticeable in the Auckland and Tara-naki districts, and in the wheat area in Can-terbury and Central Otago."
New Zealand's Flight of Capital."The main responsibility for the depletion
of Xew Zealand's London funds does not liewith the trading position." says the Bureauof Importers in a statement containing pro-posals for a scheme to replace the import con-trol regulations. The bureau adds: "The stateof the London funds is due in the main to aflight of capital. This flight, apart from nor-mal seasonal fluctuations, which accounted for£12,000.000 to £10.000.000 of the £20.000.000
ijost-in 1938, was the result of unremunera-tive interest rates in the Dominion and to thefact that Xew Zealand's overseas funds shared
1in the huge international migration of capitalfrom London to Xew York, for safer invest-ment, between April and Xovember last year."
Fire Trtdning.The work of the Auckland Central Fire
Brigade in the training of outside organisa-tions in fire-fighting was indicated in the re-port of the superintendent, Mr. W. L. Wilson,received at yesterday's meeting of the Auck-land Metropolitan Fire Hoard. A communica-tion was received from the Air Department.Wellington, inipiiriug whether the boardwould arrange for quarterly inspections of fireservices at. the air force station and forperiodical training of the station staff in fireprevention and fire tisjhtinrr. Another camefrom the Auckland Hospital Board askingthat arrangements be made for instruction ofthe nursiiK.' staff, domestic «taff and orderliesat the hospital in handling outbreaks pendingthe arrival of a brigade. It was indicated atthe meeting that arrangements had been madein both cases.
First Australian Oranges.The first Australian oranges of the season
have been released on the Auckland marketthis week by the sole importer, the InternalMarketing Division, which has fixed the rainjeof prices from IS/ to 22/ per case. WiUi onlyone more shipment to come from the IslandsYew Zealand will soon be depending almostentirely on Australia rfor orange snprli's.(Irowers in the Commonwealth are niakint:a special effort this season to foster the tradewith New Zealand, and arrangements havebeen made for Mr. C.

Schwenneson. re-cently visited N'ew Zealand, and on his returnstated that satisfactory arrangements hadbeen made between the various AustralianStates which supply fruit to the Dominion.
N.Z. Trout Ova for Australia.It is probable that the wishes of the Aus-
tralian authorities to be supplied with New-Zealand trout ova for the stocking of certainof the Commonwealth streams will be metagain this year. Until a few years ago somethousands of trout ova were sent annually toAustralia, and from the supplies a fair reve-nue was obtained by the Department ofInternal Affairs. The Minister of InternalAffairs, the Hon. W. K. Parry, said that thefisheries authorities of the Commonwealthhad secured in the past very successful resultsfrom New Zealand trout ova. When visitingSydney hist year he had been asked to makeefforts to revive the supplying to Australiaof trout ova from New Zealand waters. Witha successful season for the collection of ova.and there being abundant supplies for thelakes and streams of the Dominion, it wasprobable, the Minister said, that Australia'srequest would be met. The ova was placedin special cans and the journey across theTasman Sea had little or no effect on it.Ttif|iiiries had come lately from Suva. Mr.Parry added, for supplies of New Zealandtrout ova. and it was likely that businesswould result.
EUROPEAN TENSION.
WASHINGTON VIEW.
HITLER AND POLAND.
(By JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERTKIXTXER.)
WASHINGTON', May 2.There was but one slight faux pas in the
German occupation of Bohemia and Moravia.Hitler's invading army, did it« jot) as thoughby clockwork. All was prepared in advance,down to the curfew notices in the Germanand Czech languages which the German troopsposted in each town as soon as it was in theirhands. But seemingly, after the capture ofPrague and the cities of Bohemia, someonegrew careless. The curfew notices posted inMoravia to the eastward anticipated aconquest not yet accomplished, being printedin German and Bumanian. Fortunately, thetrifling error hardly mattered, „for it waspromptly observed and remedied.
Such, at least, is a story officially reportedby an eye-witness and carrying every signof authenticity, except its own inherent unlike-lihood. True or not. it neatly essentialisesthe nightmarish flavour of these days of crisis.This is a time when nothing is probable orimprobable, credible or incredible, for thesimple reason that anything can, and perhapswill, happen to-morrow morning.
Under the circumstances, it's quite naturalthat the experts of the State Departmentshould confess themselves blankly unable toforesee the future. But, since the isolationistsseem strangely inclined to take courage fromHitler's recent speech to the Beichstag, it isworth noting that, while venturing nopredictions, the men who ought to know aremore than ever inclined to fear the worst.
Hitler versus Britain.The Polish situation, for example, is
regarded as exceedingly threatening. Threeessential points are at issue—Danzig, thePolish Corridor and the Anglo-Polish agree-ment. Hitler wants Danzig, a road acrossthe Corridor and the abandonment of theagreement. To-day it is thought that histerritorial ambitions are now subordinated tohis desire to defeat the British effort toencircle Germany by breaking the first linkin the chain—the agreement. The agreementis still unsigned, but, if the Poles do abandonit. they will be at Hitler's mercy. Meanwhile,partly because he wants them anyway andpartly to frighten the Poles, Hitler isincreasing his pressure for Danzig and hisroad across the Corridor.
Hitler's pressure is being met, to date, bystrong resistance from the Poles. So far asDanzig is concerned, the city is 93 per centGerman, with a strongly Xa/.i Government.If Hitler cares to give the order, the DanzigSenate can at any moment proclaim the FreeCity reunited with the Reich. Then the Poleswill have 110 recourse but to march in. orkeep quiet. Oil the other hand, if he insists011 his road across the Polish Corridor, Hitler iwill either have to march in or persuade the jPoles to renounce all real sovereignty over jtheir avenue to the sea.
The logic of the situation is that warmust come unless one of the two parties backsdown, both having declared their uiidviiigdetermination not to. And that, of course,is only one of the danger points. In the lastdays, indications have reached the StateDepartment that the German pressure onPoland may he only a "blind," planned todemoralise and distract the other «ide beforesuch an attack on Bumauia as was irpplied inthe Moravian curfew notices. Meanwhile,tension is increasing in the Mediterranean.
Hopes and Fears.To be sure, there are some rays of hope.
It now appears, on positive authority, thatthe Anglo-Russian negotiations have been mis-represented. The Russians are not demandingany promise of English help against Japan,and the negotiations are limited to the Westernfront. Nevertheless, due to Polish and Buma-nian feeling against Russia, the English mustask the Russians for a sort of blank-chequecommitment, to help the Rumanians or Polesonly if, as and when requested to do so.Hope of success, therefore, is still small. |Meanwhile, it becomes more and more obvious 1that, if Hitler is to fight at all, it will begreatly to his advantage to do so at once.
Under the circumstances, it would seemsensible for the United States to calculatethe meaning of war in Europe, and to actaccordingly. And thus the current state ofaffairs in Congress adds the final touch of Iimprobability to the whole incredible picture. 1Because the Senate cannot settle its mind one :way or the other, this country is apparently Irunning the risk of being caught, all unpre- [pared, in a general explosion.— (X.A.X.A.)

None of them couldride. as they had been at sea all their lives,but they mounted gallantly and were soon onthe move. The horses were fresh, and so werethe riders, who were soon "hanging on foreand aft and amidships, half overboard and allveiling to drop anchor and recover buoyancyto no purpose." The horses stopped at thefirst pub, where the mate rode in and wasriding up the stairs until the horse sensedthat this waif not the ri-Tlit direction.

It appears that saidfriend and a friend (both Americans of recentarrival) were in one of our snipe areas, andthe local lads decided to amuse themselvesat the Americans' expense. so took them snipesnaring. The two Yanks were told to standat the foot of the hill and hold the hag openwhile the inhabitants went up the hill andchased the snipe down into the bag. Theinhabitants disappeared into the bush, and theYanks were left holding the hag. Timemarched on. and the inhabitants were still inthe bush and the Yanks were still holding thebag.

IN THE PUBLIC MIND.ECONOMIC PRESSURE.
BETRAYAL OF SMALL NATIONS.
(To the Editor.)The little kingdom of Albania is the mostrecent victim of aggression. Coastal towns
were engulfed by the modern weapons ofattack, and it was all over in a day. It 'wasa. smash and grab in true bandit fashion. Mr.Chamberlain has advised Italy that "GreatBritain is prepared to recognise the prepon-derant position uf Italy in Albania." Oneafter another, the small nations are betrayedby those in whom they have placed their trust.Herr Hitler has been assured that GreatBritain does not desire the encirclement ofGermany. Why not? War is just around thecorner and iliere are weapons of warfarebesides the military. There is the economicweapon. The thumbscrew of economic pressure,if applied against aggressors, would savemillions of lives, which will be sacrificed 011the bloody fields of Europe. An impenetrableeconomic wall should be erected around ajrsres-sor nations, within which they would devoureach other like moristers of the deep. Therecan l>e no peace with dictators, for they must'perforce keep marching on. Democracies ?aywhat they will do in three years. The dictatorsdo it to-day. In three years it will be toolate. In tlirc? years the last vestige ofcivilisation, such as we understand it. mayhe destroyed. What concern have Governmentsfor humanity? They are only concerned withconferences, treaties and trade agreements,and the millions massacred are soon forgotten.Xever in history has there been misery onsuch a colossal scale as exists in China to-day.Seven nations have disappeared from the mapsince the Great War, which was fought forjustice and liberty. So we said, and thenbelied it immediately. Of our former couragethere remains only a boastful truculence, whichpoorly disguises our weakness. It is hightime that those who have regard for thedestiny of the British Empire should realisethat spats and top hats are no match forguns and steel helmets.

CAPITAL AND INTEREST.
I wonder if A. M. O'Learv is old enoughto remember the cost of child birth before the£4 baby bonus was introduced, and can heremember how t¥ie cost of this luxuriousfamily occurrence mounted by leaps andbounds when this money became available toour child-bearers, or how long it was afterthe Government had to add a further £2. orhow the costs again mounted up to swallowthis extra £2, aud a little over for luck. Howmany of these baby bonuses (which shouldhave been paid to the mother) found theirway into hotels (just to "wet baby's head"),whilst the mother had to scheme and struggleto foot the bill if and when it was paid?
I Some of us old-timers remember what we had|to suffer to raise families. Further, 'we knowwhat it costs to bring a child into the worldto-day. My advice to women and their fiftyorganisations who do not remember these daysis to remain asleep and let the present Govern-ment safeguard them from what we havesuffered in the past and live in hopes thattlie Government responsible for this humanemeasure be long spared to carry on theirgood work.

In reply to "Rin Tin Din," I must assureliim that if anyone accidentally drops 60mearticle during the night I do not say anythingto them about it, for any reasonable personknows that such a thing is not done onpurpose. About living their lives—l do notsiee why tenants should rule the house theycome into. I have had very good tenants,who consider me as I have done them; butI also have had tenants who do not or cannotbehave themselves, and I am sure I have hadthe world's champion door-slammers here. Iam quite sure "Rin Tin Din" cannot hearany radio but' his own, because a would-betenant told me lately that he had lived in ahouse where there were four radios, and thenoise was so awful that he got one himselfwhich filled his room with sound to the exclu-sion of all others. Perhaps "Rin Tin Din's"neighbours waxed sarcastic when they 6aidthey didn't know he had a radio!
STILL NO DIN.
The "money truths" which emanate fromthe erudite J. Johnstone are still in theadolescent stage. The game of asking himselfquestions and then answering himself, thusensuring that the answers are acceptable, maylie according to the rules of economies, butin other walks of life often indicate thatattendance by a psychiatrist would assist inrestoring mental equilibrium. The psexido-lo'ric which attempts to prove that "interestis a source of invaluable gain to mankind by■bringing capital into existence," would, whilebeing oblivious of the fact that "money doesnot beget money," find pleasure in statingthat "as every person born also dies, thereforethe number of births equals the number ofdeaths, therefore the birth rate equals thedeath rate, therefore the population isstationary." and in face of all facts to theeontrarv, believe it so.

Judging by the lengthy and carefullystudied answer of our Minister of Healthto the Te Awamutu women's meeting,I should think he would have ample time tofret on with a debate. Granted he does dohis job well, a*> our friend Mr. A. Fraser,points out, granted also that the spokesman,the jovial Mr. Algie, can also do a job well—why leave the political atmosphere out tillelection time? Wliew! We will get enoughof that when that time arrives. If our friend,Mr. Algie. does give a good rub of Conserva-tive oil in now and again, it should act as atonic after all the political stuff we have toswallow every day of our lives now. It isgetting quite in order when our politiciansare asked to take a few pills of their ownmaking to say that they are far too busy."Let's brithers be for a' that."

The cows appeared to be havingthe feed of their lives. I could see the peasand beans partly devoured and trampled intothe ground, then some of the cows looked up,and I could almost hear them eav, "Do notturn us out. If you do you will get lessmilk." Then in the distance I heard thebarking of dogs and the clattering of horses'hoofs, together with the crack of a stock-man's whip which woke me up. Yes. it wasa strange, vivid dream. DREAMER.

AIR EXPANSION.NEW ZEALAND PLANSFlying Schools At Wigram
And Blenheim.START AT BEGINNING OF 1940.(By Telegraph.—Pnrllnmentary Reporter.)
WELLINGTON, this dayConsiderable l'eorganisation and
expansion of the Royal New ZealandAir Force was announced to-day bythe Minister of Defence, the Hon. F.Jones. This wqs the result of astatement made by the Secretary ofState for Air, Sir Kingsley Wood, inthe House of Commons, announcingagreement between New Zealand andthe United Kingdom Governmentsconcerning the establishment of theaircraft industry and extension offlying in New Zealand.
Mr. Jones said that the flying train-ing school at Wigram would be in-ert-used substantially in size to providefor the training of 140 pilots a year asagainst the contemplated output of 80annually under the earlier expansionprogramme. To provide for this it wouldbe necessary to purchase some addi-tional land required in the building areaand to add additional hangars, instruc-tional buildings and accommodation forofficers and airmen.
The Air Force station at present underconntruction at Blenheim would be con-verted to a flying training school capableof an output of 140 pilots a year, makingthe flying training school at Blenheimequal in capacity to the flying school atWigram. The proposal involved thepurchase of additional land, erection oftour hangars instead of two, and theprovision of technical accommodationand further accommodation for officersand men.
"Further expansion of the programmeof the Royal New Zealand Air Force willmean that young men selected for shortservice commissions will, in future, in-stead of going straight to England,receive their first eight months' trainingin New Zealand, and it is hoped to com-mence on the first stage of the expandedtraining scheme at the beginning of1940," nclfieri the Minister.

N.Z. LOAN.DEADLOCK REACHED?Mr. Nash Trying To Raise Sum
Of £33,000,000.
LONDON PRESS COMMENT.United Press Association.—Copyright.
LONDON, June 28,The City editor of the "DailyExpress" says it is understood that adeadlock has been reached between
the New Zealand Minister of Financfe,Mr. Nash, and the Governor of theBank of England, Mr. MontaguNorman, in regard to New Zealandfinances.
The writer says: "Mr. Nash wants toraise £33,000,000, which is a lot ofmoney for a country with a populationof 1,020,000.
"Mr. Norman and City heads, whodo not usually sponsor New Zealandloans, point out that it is impossibleto raise such an amount in the normalway in view of New Zealand's depletedsterling resources, the current lowprices for wool and dairy produce, andthe increased scale of New Zealandsocial services."
The "Manchester Guardian" Cityeditor, commenting on the fact that Mr.Nash has still not completed his nego-tiations, considers New Zealand loanrequirements cannot be dealt with as amere matter of market haggling. Thedefence loan concerns high policy, whileconversion can only be tackled, whenthe New Zealand and British Govern-ments come to an understanding aboutexport trade to Britain, on which NewZealand is able to rely.
The writer says that perhaps specialtrade credit arrangements, such as havebeen abundantly granted ,to foreigncountries, combined with a long-termloan operation, may be necessary.

Mr. Winston Churchill, in a speechat the City Carlton Club, said: "Wemust all consider July, August andSeptember the months in which thetension in Europe will become mostsevere."I am in entire accord with M.
Daladier that we are in a period ofdanger more acute and more heavilyladen with ugly facts than at any periodin living memory.
"I take the most serious view of theposition in which we find ourselves. Itis similar to what happened last year,but with the very important differencethis year that there are 110 means ofretreat open."
He added: "T do not consider warcertain, although if one considers onlythe German preparations, the tone ofthe German Press and the speeches ofthe Nazi leaders, there is no possibleconclusion but that the worst willhappen quite soon. The brute factstaring us in the face is that in viewof Britain's absolute guarantee toPoland, Britain and France would beforced to declare war should Polandbe subjected to an unprovoked attackby Germany. It is important toremember that we never guaranteed thesecurity of Czechoslovakia last year.
Nazi Pressure on Poland."The Nazis are making all preparations
to force Poland to yield to theirdemands. If Poland does not yield,preparations will go on night and dayto attack her with large forces fromwest and south."
Mr. Churchill said he was notdeceived over the meaning of theGerman Army manoeuvres last year anddid not want the British to be deceivedthis year. Forces of aggression hadactually gathered. It was said thatnothing would happen until after theharvest, but that was not far away.
He was in a position to know thestate of extreme vigilance of Britain'sdefence forces, particularly the AirForce. "I wish I could convince HerrHitler that the British Empire hasreached the limit of its patience," hedeclared. "I ask Herr Hitler to considerwhether his life's work may not beirretrievably cast away. I trust thatthe British air strength will not beunder-rated in certain quarters.
"The Navy is stronger than at thebeginning of the Great War, and theyoung militiamen are of a higherphysical standard." '

Commons, announced the opening ofnegotiations in Tokyo for a settle-ment of the Tientsin situation. Hesaid: "Sir Robert Craigie has been,for some time, in communication withthe Japanese Government on theposition, and I am now able to an-nounce the result of the exchange ofviews which has taken pace betweenBritain and Japan.
"It has been agreed that the conver-sations shall take place in Tokyo inorder to effect a settlement of the vari-ous questions relating to the presentconditions in Tientsin, and that repre-sentatives of local British and Japaneseauthorities will be invited to Tokyo forthe purpose.
"These conversations, which are ex-pected to start forthwith, will relate tolocal issues and will be designed tosecure that, while the neutrality of theconcession shall be maintained, Britishauthority in the concession shall bepreserved intact. In view of these con-versations Britain assumes that therewill be an end to stripping, searchingand similar incidents at Tientsin, andBritain has reason to hope that thiswill, in fact, be the case."
Regarding the situation at Tientsinitself, Mr. Chamberlain said thatarrivals of perishable foodstuffs con-tinued to be spasmodic, only a fractionof the normal reaching the British con-cession. Local British authorities weretaking active steps to remedy the defi-ciency.
All British subjects who had passedthe barriers since the commencement ofthe blockade had been subjected torigorous search. The number of in-stances in which British subjects hadbeen compelled to strip was fifteen, in-cluding one of a woman, but there didnot appear to have been any more suchcases during the 'last day or two.Operations in South China.

(Received 11 a.m.)
WASHINGTON, June 28.In view of President Roosevelt'sstatement that if Congress depriveshim of power to devalue the dollar,it will return the control of moneyto Wall Street and internationalspeculators, there is no doubt that
an epochal fight is impending on thedevaluation issue, possibly going intoa special session of Congress.
The Administration is believed to be| ready to , make a bargain with theI coalition leaders provided it can savethe devaluation powers for the Presi-dent.
Efforts by the Republican coalitionof members from the silver-producingi_tates to obtain immediate ratificationby the House of the repeal of thedevaluation powers to-night were frus-trated by Administration leaders, whothink they can stop the movement to-morrow during the inter-House con-ference, when it is believed they willindicate their willingness to accept aninciease in the price of silver, if thedevaluation power is restored.
Still another aspect was added tothe situation when it was disclosed thatan old law enacted in 1895 to enablethe replenishment of the Treasury'sgold reserves during a panic authorisesthe Secretary of the Treasury to pur-chase gold under any terms 'he deemsin the public interest. The Administra-tion, therefore, could use this law inthe event of the devaluation powers notbeing restored.
Silver slumped on the London marketto the lowest since 1937 as the resultof the reduction in United States buvineprice. °

DEFENCE INDUSTRIES,
United Press Association.—Copyright.
WASHINGTON, June 28.Great disappointment prevails inofficial circles over the apparentimpasse in the Australian-American
trade treaty talks, which, in spiteof long exploration, afford less hopeat present than ever before.
Officials realised that the problemsarising from the similarity of productsmade an agreement very difficult, buthope has always flickered until the lastfew weeks, when it has sunk to aforlorn state, particularly in view ofAustralia's defence programme, whichencourages exactly those industries inwhich the United States hoped tosupply part of Australian needs.
While officials still have not aban-doned all hope, it is felt that- a verysevere blow was Menzies' an-nouncement that Australia would pro-duce motor cars as a defence measure.Repeated announcements of the expan-sion for defence mirposes of othersecondary industries have similarlv dis-couraged American officials, who, al-though not criticising it, feel that theprogramme precludes the United Statesfrom supplying non-competitive goods,which might have been arranged undera trade agreement.
It is felt that America would havebeen satisfied with concessions on veryfew commodities, such as motor cars,timber, and perhaps refrigerators, radiosand typewriters, or at least similartypes of products.
Nevertheless, on account of friend-ship for Australia, officials refrain fromexpressing doubts, especially becausethey recognise Australia's difficultdefence position; but the Secretary ofState, Mr. Cordell Hull, has struggledso long to convert the world to aliberalised trade system that he andhis colleagues regret particularly to seea good friend like Australia swing toanother contrary programme.

EMPLOYERS' CASE.
HISTORY OF THE AWARD.
X KGOTIATIOXS OUTLINED.
On behalf of the employers, the fol-lowing statement concerning the chemi-cal workers' strike has been made by
Mr. W. K. Anderson, secretory of theAuckland Employers' Association: —
"In October, 1938, the Court ofArbitration issued a series of new
awards covering workers employed in
chemical manure works throughoutNew Zealand. Before making theawards the Court heard very lengthyevidence and argument and devoted awhole day to inspecting the three worksat Auckland. The awards came intoforce 011 October 24, 1938, with a cur-
rency of two years."The workers were dissatisfied witn
the terms of the awards, contendingthat they should have been made for ashorter term, that the wages shouldhave been higher and granted retrospec-tively to the date on which they metthe employers in Conciliation Council.
Two Conferences Held."Mr. Hunter, who represents the
Minister of Labour in dealing with cer-tain industrial disputes, arranged twoconferences between representatives ofthe employers, the workers and theFederation of Labour. The first confer-ence was held at Auckland on March20, 1939, and the second on May 17, 1930.After full consideration the employersstated that they Were not prepared togrant an increase in wages npr to makeany retrospective payment, pointing outthat the rates awarded bv the Court arefld an hour higher than thev 1931' rates,the workers thus having gained thesame increase as workers in other in-dustries.
"The employers pointed out that re-trospective payment was asked for bythe workers at the hearing and declinedby the Court. However, the employersdid agree to join with the unions inasking the Court to amend the termclause in each of the awards so as tomake them expire on June 14, 1939.
Employers' Proposal Accepted."The employers made it clear that
their agreement to allow . the awardsto espire In June was not to be takenas an indication that the employers dis-agreed with the wages or other condi-tions awarded by the Court. Theyagreed merely to enable the workers tostate their case to the Court a secondtime. This proposal was submitted bythe workers' representatives to theunions and accepted.
"At the close of the conference tlieemployers understood clearly that theworkers were to submit proposals for* new award in the ordinary way, andthat the wage question was to be re-ferred to the Court as promptly aspossible, that the workers would statetheir case a second time, and that theparties would accept the award issuedby the Court without further dispute,fn order to avoid delay the employersoffered to join with t.he workers' repre-sentatives in asking the Court to fix anearly date for the hearing, indicatingthat they would .be prepared to attenda fitting of the Court at any centre—ev«n Christehurcfrbr Dunediir—where aday could be set aside for the hearing."

BRITAIN'S STRONGNOTE TO GERMANY.
JVO ENCIRCLEMENT.
Explanation Of RecentCommitments.
NAVAL TREATY QUESTIONS
United I'ress Association.—Copyright.
(Kecelved 1.30 p.m.)
LONDON, June 28.The British Government, in a
strong Note to Germany, publishedto-niglit, formally denies pursuing apolicy of encirclement and denies thatit is inevitable that Britain mustalways be hostile to Germany in eventof the Reich being involved in war.
The denials are contained in a memo-randum to (iermany in reply to Ger-many's denunciation of the naval agree-ment with Britain. The text was issuedby the Foreign Otlice.
The British text recalls Germany'sjustification for the denunciation in thememorandum of April 27, and proceeds:'•It is not the case that in whateverpart of Europe Germany might beinvolved in a war-like conflict Britainmust always take up an attitude hostileto Germany. Britain could only behostile if Germany were to commit anact of aggression against another coun-try, and the political decisions to whichit is understood the German Governmentrefers, involving guarantees to certaincountries by Britain, could only operateif the countries concerned were to beattacked by Germany.
Misunderstanding Indicated."In the German memorandum the
claim is made to descril)e British policyas a policy of encirclement. Thisdescription is without any justification,and indicates a misunderstanding and amisreading of British purposes, whichmust be corrected. The German Gov-ernment's recent action to incorporatecertain territories in the Reich, what-ever may have been held by them tobe )• tifying reasons, has undoubtedlyresulted in a great increase in. anxietyin many quarters.
"Actions subsequently taken by theUnited Kingdom Government have noother purpose than to contribute to theremoval of this anxiety by assistingsmaller nations to feel secure in theenjoyment of their independence, towhich they have the same right anBritain or Germany herself," the Notecontinues.
"The commitments which Britain hasrecently undertaken in pursuance ofthis purpose arc limited, nnd could onlybecome effective if the countries con-cerned were victims of aggression, norhas Hi« Majesty's Government the in-tention or denire to restrict the develop-ment of Germany's trade."
The Government points out that under jthe British-German payments agree-ment a considerable supply of freeexchange has been made available toGermany for the Requisition of rawmaterials, and suggests that furthermeasures for the improvement of Ger-many's economic position could lie dis-cussed if confidence and goodwill could \be established.
Needs of Both Countries."The consistent desire of His Majesty's
Government, far from being promotionof war with Germany, has been and isthe establishment of relations betweenBritain and Germany on a basis ofmutual recognition of the needs of bothcountries, with due regard to othernations."
Turning to the naval treaty, theGovenmcnt stresses that it was ex-pressly stated to be of permanentcharacter, and a contribution to thesolution of the problem of navallimitation.
The text refers to Notes andexchanges l>etween Sir Samuel Hoareand Herr von Ribbentrop to this effect,and the fixing of a ratio of 3.) to 100as a permanent relationship, and addsthat the only provision contemplatingmodification of the ratio was a. violent<T;«tnrb»nce of equilibrium of navalarmaments.
The German Government, however,had not maintained that such conditionsdid exist, and still U*s had they invitedHis Majesty's Government to examinethe situation before taking its action,though provision was made for such
I consultation.Qualitative Provisions.
Dealing with the qualitative provi-sions, which, presumably, the GermanGovernment desires to remain unaffectedin principle, the Government points out.that the retention of these would notpalone suffice to' create the feeling ofmutual security, which was the purposeof the Xaval agreement, and with whichthe provisions for the exchange of in-formation were associated.
Hia Majesty's Government, however,has always be?n ,-eady to consider thepossibility of reaching, in the words ofthe German Xote, "a clear and categori-cal understanding." on a sure basis.
The Government refers to the presentuncertainty as regards cruiser limits,but presumes that Germany intends toadhere to 8000 tonner« mounting O.linguns, and asks for confirmation of thisassumption.
It proceeds to refer to the Govern-ments past forecasts to Germany ofBritish strength at the end of 1942-3,and says it is clear that no further fore-casts are necessary since they were de-signed merely to allow Germany to makefull use of her 1935 quota.
"But if Germany was no longer boundto a limit of 35 per cent, His Majesty'sGovernment can no longer be bound bytheir forecasts of strength, which mustbe considered to be cancelled.
Answering the last paragraph of theGerman memorandum expressing readi-ness to negotiate future problems, theBritish Government states that anexchange of views would help to clarifythe situation, which in some respects isuncertain.
For instance, besides the cruiser ques-tion, it is the Government's desire to"know whether Germany regards herselfas bound by all the article* of the ;igree-ment of 1937, outside those in Part 111.
If. however, Gernwuiy contemplatesanother agreement replacing the provi-sions now terminated, His Majesty'sGovernment desires to know when, in theGerman view, the discussions shouldoccur; and, secondly, how the GermanGovernment proposes to ensure that anyaction in the shape of denunciation ormodification of the new agreement duringits term of validity should carry theconsent of both parties.

WIFE'S ATTACK.WITH AN AXE.
ASSAULT ON HUSBAND.
DETAINED FOR TWO YEARS.
"Nothing T could say could justifythis assault in the eyes of the law, hutT suggest that she was more sinnedagainst thaiMsiutiin.!.' " pleaded Mr. Ruddon belin'f nf V" : ;i;i Myrrh Galbraitli.a ynun-j "xnieil woman who (ilea (ledguilty, before Mr. Justice Fair in theSu|uenie Court to-day. to havingassaulted her husband so as to causehim actual bodily harm. Counsel empha-sised that the prisoner, left an orphanat an early age. had hail an unhappylife, and through her inexperience andlack of parental shelter had had anillegitimate child.
Iu August last year she married, herliushand being aware of the child. Itwas an unhappy marriage and witliinfive or six weeks she and her husbandwere discussing a separation agreement.She had to go to hospital and came outto find that her husband bad gone toAuckland and she lacked maintenance.
Seeking this through the Court shewas advised to join hor husband inAuckland and did so. Here she againwent to the Court for a separation,which was not granted, and she wentback to live in one room with her hue-band and child, a sick and disappointedwoman unfit to bear his reproaches.
"I fully recognise that this crime wascommitted by the prisoner while she wasin a state of nervous hysteria. largelycontributed to by the unhappinees of hermarried life," said his Honor. "But Ican't ignore the fact that her positionwith her husband was investigated bytwo magistrates, who did not find suffi-cient grounds for granting her a legalseparation from him. They were livingin one room at a time when feelingbetween them was very bad. Themental attitude of the prisoner musthave been subject to continuous strain,with a danger of her losing her self-con-trol. Yet the fact remained that theassault was unprovoked. The husbandhad gone to bed and she assaulted himwith a email axe at two o'clock in theuiorning.'"It appears from the statements that
the assault was committed with theintention of taking Ms life." added hisHonor. "Anything of that kind mustbe punished. It seems to me in theinterests of the prisoner herself sheshould be put for a time where she willnot be subject to the strain and impulsesof this kind." The prisoner was sen-tenced to be detained in prison forreformative purposes for a period of twoyears.
RECRUITING CAMPAIGN
OVER 1000 JOIN IN MONTH.
MANY WILLING TO SERVE.
"It should l>e a point of pride for allsections of the community to supportthe Prime Minister and Major-GeneralJ. E. Duigan in making the officialrecruiting campaign a success," statesthe Army League.
"Official statements make it clear thatwhen the Government increased thepeace-time establishment of the Terri-torial Army to approximately 16,000 itwas acting in accordance with the recom-mendations of military experts at th«Pacific Defence Conference. Earlier thisweek the Chief of the General Staff,Major-General J. E. Duigan, stated thatthe territorial strenprth at the end ofMay was 10,600. a total of 1000 extravolunteers having joined up in thatmonth. The present strength wasapproximately 12,000.
"This means that during the twomonths May-June at least 2400 recruitshave come forward. Allowing for wastagethrough retirement, posting to reserves,etc v an increase of at least 1000 a monthis indicated. At this rate the newestablishment of 16,000 will be reachedby the end of October. But with anofficial recruiting campaign being in-augurated, it is reasonable to assumethat the new peace-time establishmentwill be reached at an earlier date.
"Inquiries received recently by theArmy League indicate that there arestill" nuinlters of young men eager tojoin up. who only require encouragementand information to bring them to therecruiting office. Organised recruitingcampaigns in country district? arc beingundertaken, and judging by the corres-pondence we have received from ruralareas, the effort should Ito successful.
"Having discussed the matter with agreat number of territorials, the ArmyLeague can say that most territorialsfavour the present system of trainingagainst compulsory service. The serv-ing territorial is quite willing to do hispart, and believes that official and pri-vate encouragement will soon bring intlie men required."

UNRULY SHOWMAN.
STRUGGLE WITH CONSTABLE.
TWO OTHER MEN FINED.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)WHANG AREI, this day.
Terms of imprisonment totalling twomonths and tines totalling £1"> wereimposed in the Police Court this morn-
ing by Mr. G. N. Morris. S.M.. as a sequelto a fracas at the Winter Exhibitiongrounds yesterday afternoon, involvingthree showmen.
Frederick James Cecil Vallis and•lames Frederick Andrews were chargedwith wilfully obstructing Constables J.H. Hell and C. Snow whilst in the law-ful execution of their duty. John Faganwas charged with being disorderly whiledrunk in the showgrouhds, and alsowith using obscene language. He wasfurther charged with resisting Con-stable Hell and Constable Snow whilstin the lawful execution of their duty.
Fagan pleaded guilty to the obscenelanguage charge, while pleas of notguilty were entered by the accused tothe other charges.
Constable Hell said that yesterdayafternoon, while at the showgrounds,his attention was drawn to Fagan, whowas quarrelling with another man. Heheard him use obscene language andthreaten to strike the other man. Wit-ness said lie tried to quieten accuseddown, but failed, so he arrested Fagan,who was under the influence of drink.Accused began struggling, and Con-stable Snow assisted witness.
Giving evidence on his own behalf,Fagan said he was having a heatedargument with his "boss" at the time,and he did not see why he should havebeen arrested, abused and knocked down.
The Magistrate: You were arrestedfor using obscene language.
Fagan was convicted. The magistratesaid he had no hesitation about thematter, as it was plain that he hadresisted arrest, and the police were quitejustified in arresting him. He wassentenced to one month's imprisonmenton the obscene language charge, witha further month for resisting the police.He was also convicted and discharged onthe other charge.
Dealing with the chartres againstAndrews and Yallis. Cons-table Bell saidthat while he and Constable Snow wereescorting Fagan out of the grounds thetwo accused came up and tried to pullhim away. Andrews was calling out tothe crowd: "Don't let them take himaway."
Defendants were convicted and fined£7 10/ each, with costs. Andrews
asked the magistrate to fix surety forappeal and Mr. Morris advised hi'm toobtain the advice of a solicitor. Hesaid he would grant leave to appeal ifthey wanted it, but he had first toknow on what grounds.
HEAVIER PENALTY.
BREAKING AND ENTERING.
FIRST OFFENDERS WARNED,
(By Telejrraph.—Press Association.)WELLINGTON, this day.
"I think the time is approaching, ifit has not already been reached, whenthis type of offence by youths will haveto be more severely dealt with, in thecourte," said Mr. Justice Reed in theSupreme Court to-day after dealing withfour prisoners who had pleaded guilty tobreaking, entering and theft. The agesof the prisoners ranged from 20 to 23years.
"No doubt it is in the interests of theindividual offender that he can be keptaway from the contamination ofprisoners by the use of the Offenders'Probation Act, but it was really ques-tionable whether, in the generalinterests of the public, and particularlyof the adolescent section a general im-pression should be created that a youngman can safely indulge at least once inwhat appears to be the attractive crimeof breaking and entering withoutpunishment. Such an impression, if itgets abroad, will simply result in thecreation of criminals."
Knowledge that punishment wouldfollow crime might deter young men onthe brink where probation would not bea sufficient deterrent, the judge added.

(Received 2.55 p.m.)
NEW YORK, June 28
A technical knock-out in the fourthround of "Two Ton" Tony Galentoallowed Joe Louis to retain his worldheavy-weight title at the YankeeStadium.
Galento weighed in at 10.9J and Louisat 14.2J. The crowd exceeded 50,000.
First Round.Galento came out plainly intent on
taking the fight to the champion andlanded a series of lefts and rights thatdrove Louis to the ropes. The negroresponded with a couple of hard rights,but it was Galento's round ea-sily.
Second Round.Louis took the upperliand and hit the
challenger at will, opening bad cuts overhis eyes from which Galento bledprofusely. Galento was floored from a
right and left to the face, but arosewithout a count and hung on as Louis
| tried to finish him. It was Louis'round.
Third Round.Galento landed a hard right, flooring
Louis for a count of two. Thiswae the high point of the round,which saw both administer considerablepunishment to each other. It was Gal-ento's round.
Fourth Round.Louis landed a hard right to
the face and the blood spurted.The champion then jabbed the contenderv ith his leTt and crossed with a rightto the head, and then put Galento backagainst the ropes with a hard right,where he hammered him with rights andlefts to the head. Galento began to sinkto the canvas, and the referee stoppedthe bout at 9.40 p.m.
CONTESTANTS' RECORDS.
LOtJIS' SPECTACULAR RISE.
Joe Louis is the second colouredpugilist to win the heavy-weight cham-pionship of the world, Jack Johnsonbeing the first. Bom in May, 1914, sonof an Alabama cotton-picker, his ringcareer has been spectacular, for in a few.short years he has risen from povertyto riches.
Since turning professional in 1934,Louis has suffered only one defeat, beingknocked out in June, 1936, by theGerman, Max Schmeling, in the twelfthround of a scheduled 15 rounds' contest.
Louis won the heavy-weight title inJune, 1937, when he knocked out J. J.Braddock in the eighth round. In thefollowing August he beat Tommy Farr,the British champion, on points in 15rounds, and then followed the knock-outs of Nathan Mann in February, 1938,in the third round; Harry Thomas, inApril, 1938, in the fifth round; MaxSchmeling. on June 22, 1938, in the firstround; John Henry Lewis, on January2o last, in the first round; and JackRoper on April 18 last, in the firstround. His bout with Roper lasted twominutes 20 seconds, the challenger beingfloored after a barrage of rights andlefts to the head that dumped him inhis own corner, helpless to get up beforethe referee finished the ten count.
Rollicking Galento."Two ton" Tony Galento is a New
Jersey bartender. Critics had predictedfor him even a more speedy dismissalby Louis when Schmeling, Lewis andRoper, and ridiculed the rating of himas the second best heavyweight in theworld.
Galento is an impossible physicalehape, and according to one critic, hewould not even pass as an alleged all-in wrestler. His best blow is a lefthook that he swishes over "to eitherbody or jaw, but his defence is wideopen.
Galento began boxing in 1929 withvarying success, but it was not untillast year that he figured prominentlyin the sport headlines. That was becausehis last three fights in 1937 resulted inknock-outs of A 1 Ettore. Lorenzo Pack,and Leroy Haynes. Prior to these vic-tories he had beaten Pietro Corri, TedSandwina. K. O. Christner, Abie Bain,Arthur DeKuh, Natie Brown, Red Barry'Larry Johnson, Fred Kiducia, InySinger and Roy Lazer. Some cleverboxers have gone down for full countsbefore his sweeping punches. Twice hesuffered technical K.O's, but on bothoccasions he was on his feet and fullof fight although badly cut about. Gal-ento is described as a "rollicking, roar-ing, beer-drinking pug who owns atavern in Orange, New Jersey, wherehe was born in 1910." In his last fourengagements he knocked out HarryThomas, Otis Thomas. Jorge Brescia andNatie* Brown. He put Brescia out inone round, whereas it took Louis threerounds to accomplish the same thingsome years earlier.

RETROSPECTIVE.SECURITY BENEFITS.
MINISTER'S ASSURANCE.
REASONS FOR THE DELAY.
(By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.)WELLINGTON, this day.
Claimants for benefits under the SocialSecurity Act were given an assuranceby the Hon. W. E. Parry to-day thatpayments would be made retrospectiveto April 1.
The Minister, in an interview,admitted that there had been consider-able delay in dealing with the applica-tions all over New Zealand, but the staffwas now more experienced, and theDepartment should be able to overtakethe arrears and reach normality in amonth or six weeks' time, he said.
"None is more concerned than myselfand officers of the Department that delayin finally and satisfactorily settlingapplications should be avoided," said Mr.Parry. "In the circumstances of thesituation made plain in my personalinvestigation, it has been humanlyimpossible to clear the applications imme-diately they come iu.
"I know that in the four chief centres,Auckland, Wellington, Christcliurch andDunedin, the position is more acute than-in the secondary districts, which areproceeding much quicker. I understandthat some applicants feel that whenthere is a little delay in putting theircases through that they will not receivetheir payments retrospectively. That isa mistaken impression, as instance thedate from which payments are made. Ifit can be shown that an applicantapplies for Social Security benefits onApril 30, and his application is granted,he draws payments from the first of themonth."
A Huge increase.Describing the Herculean task
officers of the new Department whenthe Social Security Act came intooperation oft April 1, the Minister saidthat for the first two months' workingthe staff had applications for monetarybenefits (other than unemployment and J;sickness) exceeding the pensions appli-cations received during the whole of anyone of the last three years, and weregreater by 14 per cent than thosereceived for the 12 months ended onMarch 31.
"It 'will thus be appreciated," Mr.Parry said, "what a stupendous task theofficers of the Department were set inan endeavour to complete in two orthree months over a year's normal tcork.The difficulty has not been so much thenumerical strength of the staff (whichin some instances is restricted by theaccommodation available), but probablymore to lack of sufficiently trained per-sonnel for this class, of work. It hasnot been the fault of the officersengaged, and they are now fully experi-enced in the work.
Still Pouring In."By keen concentration and willingly
working long hours the staff has beenable to dispose of two-thirds of the hugenumber of claims, and although applica-tions are still pouring in in unpre-cedented numbers there are now indi-cations of a distinct slackening off. Thisshould enable the Department to over-take arrears and reach normality in amonth or six weeks."
The Minister considered that somehasty criticism of the administration ofthe new legislation was unfair to theofficers responsible, who were keen tosee that every man or woman receivedthe benefits under the legislation towhich he or she was entitled. "But Ithink the officers of the Department,"Mr. Parry added, "have a good case ofextenuating Circumstances. Other
of the cause and delay occasionedare the extra work involved in thechange-over from pensions to benefits,and the consequent increase in theamounts which had to be effectedimmediately after April 1 in the urgentcases, men on scheme 13 passing agebenefits and other urgent cases wherepersons were compelled to give orvoluntarily gnve up employment andy no means when their work ceased.While most, if not all the cases may besaid
t t* be needy ones an endeavour hasbeen made to give priority to the mostnecessitous cases, without anv unduediscrimination."
A somewhat similar situation, thoughone of less magnitude, arose in 1936when invalidity pensions were intro-duced and certain beneficent amend-ments were made to the pensions legis-lation."_In reference to unemployment and
sickness benefits, the Minister saidmatters might be considered to be satis-factory except that some difficulty wasexperienced at first in dealing with sick-ness benefits owing to its being a newfcrm of benefit with which the publicwas not familiar.
Summing up the position, Mr. Parrysaid: "Give the officers a little moretime and all the sections of the SocialSecurity Department will be workingsmoothly and expeditiously. I can besanguine in saying that as I know thecalibre of the officers."

SENTENCE DAY.IN SUPREME COURT.PENALTY FOR CRIME.
CIVIL SERVANT'S LAPSE.
COUNSEL'S SPECIAL PLEA.
Among >i number of prisoners whocame lie fore Mr. Justice Fair in theSupreme Court to-day for sentence wasRobert Kdwnrd Sowter, a civil servant,who had admitted theft of monies as aservant, find on his behalf, Dr. McElroytnado a |>lea that as a civil servantthe miin should not lie treated any moreharshly than would other persons whohad similarly offended.
ITis Honor: I don't act on the ruleof treating civil servants differentlyfrom ot hers who have committedoffences when in a position of trust-
Counsel I lien pointed out that theprisoner, a man with a wife and a youngfamily, had suffered more than moslpeople from the effect of his folly,when he took trust money to meet obli-gations entered into while his wag«>swere small. Tn order to make restitu-tion he would lose all his superannua-tion. and would have also to getfurther assistance, and in addition tothat he had lost assured employmentwith a prospect of increased salary, andwould have to make a fresh start inlife on the open market.
His Honor said it, was verv excep-tional to pri ant probation in cases ofbreach of tiust, but what had lieen putbefore him by counsel indicated that thisciiso was exceptional. In deciding tournnt probation, he had also consideredthat prisoner had lieen a good husbandand fa thei, and, apart from the presentlapse. ,i good worker. He would be re-leased on probation for a term of threeyears, with conditions that lie make fullrestitution and pay, in addition, £ocosts of prosecution.
1 I
PRISON AND A FINE."You are 30 years of age and have
a previous record of fine convictions,"said his Honor to Simon Keepa, whohad pleaded guilty to breaking andentering a dwelling at Taumarunui.with intent to commit a crime. Addingthat the prisoner got 2■',/ a week fromnn interest in name land and seemedinclined to lead a life of idleness andcrime, hi* Honor, sentenced the man to1H months' imprisonment, to which headded a line of £50 (in default an extrathree months' imprisonment) to coverthe cost of the prosecution by theState.
YOUNG MAORI'S CRIME.A plea that the Maori people had not
the same idea of the enormity of theoffence was made by Mr. Noble onbehalf of Jonah Wiki, aged 20, who ciimeup on a plea of guilty to having brokenand entered the Moerewa post office andstolen money.
"This type of offence is much tooprevalent in the North Auckland dis-trict, and it is time the young Maoripeople realised they must refrain fromcommitting these crimes, and that anybreach of the law will lie punishedseverely," said his Honor. Pointing outthat prisoner had a record of previousoffences, his Honor sentenced him totwelv* months' imprisonment.
DID NOT REFORM.Having failed to comply with the
terms of probation extended to him.vlien he was convicted on four chargesof false pretences, Michael O'Sullivanvvas brought up for sentence on those','harges. The Probation Officer reportedUiat O'Sullivan's conduct had not beensatisfactory ill the matter of drinking
gambling, and eventually he was.iiiprisoned for seven days on a chargeof dishonesty.
His Honor said the man had beenadmitted to probation only in -May, buthad shown no serious attempt to reformand had finally committed anotheroffence of dishonesty. He was sentencedto nine months' imprisonment.
JUST FROM AUSTRALIA.A recent arrival from Australia,
Richard Arthur Eraser, aged 31 years,admitted a charge of forgery and utter-ing of a stolen cheque. On his behalf,Mr. Noble s«.id the man had come hereto work, and the forgery was that ofan endorsement on the cheque.
Remarking that the prisoner had twosomewhat similar convictions againstkim in Australia, and that the evidencemho wed he stole the cheque which heendorsed and cashed, sentencedFraser to nine months' imprisonment.
SENT TO BORSTAL."A shocking report by the probation
'officer," remarked Mr. Noble, in pleadingfor a chance for Robert Edward Sher-man, aged 20, who had admitted sixcharges of breaking and entering atOpotiki, but had not previously beenan offender. The reference was to theOpotiki probation officer's report.
"I want to hear the reason for thiscriticism," said his Honor, whereon Mr.Noble said the report, without anyevidence, said tlie prisoner was apotential danger to young Maori girls.
His Honor replied that the report gavethe facts that prisoner was addicted-todrink, kept bad company and associatedwith young Maori girls. It might bein those circumstances that the proba-tion officer thought there was risk tothe young Maori girls. The list ofoffences indicated that the prisoner waslikely to adopt a criminal career, andin his own interests he would be com-mitted to a Borstal institution for twoyears.
FORGERY AMD UTTERING.Having admitted charges of forgery,
uttering and theft at Hamilton, WilliamFrederick Lewer made a plea for proba-tion, and was grantedprobation for threeyears under strict conditions.

Mohaka—Giant Link In New Line
TO WAIROA.COAST RAILWAY.
OPENING SATURDAY.
LONG DREAM REALISED.
rORTY TEARS' AGITATION.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)NAPIER, this day.
Northern Hawke's Bay, embracing thetowns of Napier, Hastings and Wairoa.will on Saturday see the completion ofa project to which the district has givenunwavering attention for nearly 40years. The occasion will be the officialopening of the southern section of theEast Coast railway, to be marked by aceremony in which the Minister of PublicWorks, whose Department has con-trolled the line during the period ofconstruction, will formally hand it overto the Minister of Railways, whoseDepartment will control its futureoperation.
Behind the ceremonies which havebeen planned, including the running ofa special train from Napier to Wairoa,there is a story, extending over fourdecades—a story of local agitation forthe service of a railway, of recurrentconflict between local enthusiasm andthe rigidities of Government policy, ofan engineering project beset withimmense difficulties, and of final successafter two severe physical setbacks anda host of minor reverses.
Nortk Island Circle Conceived.The East Coast railway, linking
Napier and Gisborne, was originally con-ceived as a section of one immense rail-way service encircling the North Island.The greater part of that service isalready in existence. Starting atTaneatua, in tlie Bay of Plenty, thereis rail- communication northward* alor.gtlie East Coast nod overland as far asAuckland, down again to New Plymouth,fin to Wanganui, Palmerstnn North andWellington; northwards again throughWairarapa. to Woodville and on toNapier. The southern section of tiieEast Coast line, which has now beencompleted, will carry the line to Wairo.-xand on as far a* YVaikokopu, the sm;illcoastal port about 20 mile* to the norfiiof Wairoa. The link from Waikokoputo Gisborne is now being constructed,and there is already in existence a linefrom Gisborne as far north as Motuhora.But there, it seems, the circle willremain broken. Although Motuhora andTaneatua arc less than 40 miles apart,it is unlikely that they will ever bejoined by rail; tlie country which theline would have to pierce is unusuallyprecipitous, and even local enthusiasmseems now resigned to the truth thatthe project would be so costly that theexpense could never be justified.
It was in 1912, after many years ofagitation, that the Napier-Gisborne sec-tion, the opening of a section of whichtakes place on Saturday, was started.Sir Joseph Ward, then Prime Minister,turned the first sod at Westshore, amile or two outside the Napier boroughboundary. At the same time work wt's
started from the Gisborne end on whatwa* known as the Ngatapa, or inland,route. That route was later abandonedas impracticable, and work from theGisborne end switched to what is knownas the coast route, though it was notuntil 1030 that a start was made on thechanged line,.
Work Suspended.By 1020 several small sections had
been opened up, including the link be-tween Wairoa and Waikokopu, and in1030 the Railway Department took overcompletely the stretch of 38 miles fromNapier northwards to Putorino. Butthat was as far a« the scheme was togo for many years.
In 1930, only a few months after ithad been started, work on the coastroute from Gisborne to Waikokopu wassuspended, and in October, 1931, theRailways Board suspended also the bal-ance of the Napier-Wairoa section, thenon the verge of completion. In the mean-time the Napier-Putorino section, afterseveral months' full operation, had beenseverely damaged by the Hawke's Bayearthquake of 1931.
The Railways Board's decision pro-duced a vigorous agitation in whichNapier, Hastings, Gisborne and Wairoawere concerned. A representative com-mittee was set up, and detailed investi-gations were made in an attempt toconvince the Government of the daythat since more than £5,000,000 hadalready been spent on tlie line it wasworth spending
# tlie mere £150,000which would lie required to completeit. and so secure some return from itsoperation instead of writing off£5,000,000 as virtually a dead loss. Mr.W. D. Lysnar, then M.P, for Gisborne,!made a trip to England to try and inter-est a London syndicate with the ideaof forming a company and taking theline over from the Government, but
times were bad, and the English syndi-cate's views and the New Zealanderiiinent's terms could not be reconciled.The whole project seemed destined toremain an example of wasted effort andwasted money.
It was the advent of the first LabourGovernment in 1935 which revived thelino. The completion of the Napier-YVairOii section and the resumption ofthe coast route between Gisborne andWaikokopu was listed as one of the mostimportant projects in the new Govern-ment's big public works programme, andin June, 19:30, the work was startedagain. Not a great deal remained tobe done 011 the Napier-Wairoa section.
Damage To Be Repaired.The biggest individual undertaking
was the erection of the Mohaka viaduct.The lest of the work comprised repairsnecessitated bv earthquake damage be-tween Napier and I'utorino, and fromPutorino northwards a fair Amount ofcleaning up, plate-laying, and the pro-vision of station yards and buildings.To that work was added the repairoperations following the floods of Aprilof last year. That alone has been a bigjob. More than 100 slips have had to
be | cleared, tunnel mouths reopened,fillings built, one new bridge (170 feet)put tip over the Esk River, and the per-manent way rehrid—all within a sectionof 12 miles. The difficulty of the workwas aggravated, too, by the fact thatthe floods had also destroyed all roadaccess to the line.
The nature of the country betweenNapier and Wairoa has made the engi-neer's task an exacting one. There are
miles of flat country, but thecrossing of a raiifie of steep hills hastested engineering ingenuity. The linerises, at its highest, 1000 feet abovesea level, and there are seven tunnels,the longest of which, at Kotemaori, is42 chains, and four big viaducts—Ma-tahourua (250 feet in single span), Wai-kare (600 feet), Maungaturanga (800feet), and Mohaka.
The Mohaka viaduct is claimed to bethe largest structure of its kind in theSouthern Hemisphere; it is certainly thelargest in New Zealand. Tts total spanis 912 feet, and it is strung 315 feetabove the river—about twice tlto heightof the tallest building in Auckland.More than 1800 tons of steel went intoits six spans, and it contains just 011half a million rivets. Its centre sectionis supported by caissons sunk 70 feetbelow the river bed to secure a firmfoundation. Its construction was amarvel to road travellers who happenedto pass while it was being built, andwatched nerveless workmen crawlingabout at dizzy heights in the maze ofsteel that went into the piers and deck-ing of the structure.
Service by Railcar.Operation of the railway will look
chiefly to the transport of livestock andgoods to sectire its returns. A frequentpassenger service has been arranged, butit will be limited (except for specialoccasions) to railcars. The bulk of thebusiness will be drawn from farmingneeds, and in meeting tiie requirementsof settlers in Northern Hawke's Baythe line will bring a new measure ofdevelopment to a large tract of farmingcountry, in addition to opening up muchnew land.
An area of about, 500.000 acres ofoccupied land between Napier and Wai-kokopu will be directly served by therailway. There is about 273,350 acresof private freehold or leasehold, 1.")4,3r>0acres of Crown land held on lease, and29,000 acres of Crown land underdevelopment by the Lands Department.The greater part of the land is pumi-eeous. of a nature which will respondreadily to top-dressing, which the opera-tion of the railway will now facilitate.Much of the land between Napier andWa iroa, in fact, was originally takenup in anticipation of a railway service,and for years past its development hasbeen severely restricted. The long-promised rail service, now at lastavailable, will make that developmentpossible, and will mark the beginningof a gradual reorientation of farmingeconomy on the East Coast.

OWED 11 YEARS.
DEBT RAID IN FULL.
WOMAN'S DETERMINATION.PROBLEM FOR ASSIGNEE.
(By Telegraph. Correspondent.)
CHRfSTCHURCH, this dayThe determination of an elderly
woman to pay a debt of 19/7 owinir foreleven years has given the OfficialAssignee the impossible problem ofdividing that sum equitably amongstforty-three creditors whose unsatisfiedclaims amount to some £900.
Since the creditors would not appre-ciate reopening accounts that have beenclosed for eleven years just for thesake of a few pennies, the money willprobably lind its way, eventually, intothe Consolidated Fund.
When she called at the OfficialAssignee's office a week ago. the womanexplained that she owed 19/7 to a bakerwho "recently" went bankrupt. Shewas somewhat surprised—as was theOfficial Assignee— to learn that her"recently"' was in 1928.
Delayed by Hard Times.Time had slipped past so quickly.
During the inter veiling years, thethought of the 19/7 owing to the bank-rupt baker had been frequently in hermind, but she had been through hardtimes and, while she had always meantto pay, this was her first opportunity todo so.
Such rare honesty was so refreshingthat it seemed a shame to rebuff it;but the Official Assignee pointed outthat her 19/7 was a negligible amountin a deficit of some £900, and tooinfinitesimal to divide equitably amongstforty-three creditors; that the books ofthe estate were long since closed; andthat the creditors had long since writ-ten the loss off their own books.Nevertheless, the woman was deter-mined to be honest.,
This meant that a member of theOfficial Assignee's staff had to plungedown into tlie gloomy cellars of the(iovcrninent Buildings and disinter fromthe musty accumulation of documentstlie lile of the case. The woman's nuite<1 i«L not even appear amongst the listof the bankrupt's debtors; even he hadforgotten the 19/7 owing to him.
Determined to Pay.When the woman called again to learn
the result of these researches, she wastold that, since the equitable distribu-tion of her 19/7 would be impossible,the (iovernment would probably get itin the end.
"Well, of course, I could do with it,you know," she cried, wavering a little.
"Yes, forget all about it," she wasadvised.
"But,, no," she continued, in a firmervoice, "I owe it, and I'm going to payit."
And the unwanted, orphaned andownerless 19/7 was pushed firmlyacross the counter.
FREE SERVICE.

YOUTHS ASTRAY.STOLEN CAR-RIDES.
TERM OF PROBATION.
JUDGE'S SECOND THOUGHTS,
"This is another case of convertingcars, an offence which has been comingbefore the Court with increasing fre-quency," said Mr. V. R. Meredith, CrownProsecutor, when tw;o young men, AtholRichard Lewis Rusden (20) and DavidAllen Ralph (17), came before Mr.JusticeFair in the Supreme Court to-dayfor sentence on five charges of convertingmotor cars, while Rusden also admittedforgery and uttering of a cheque.
"In one car Rusden found a chequebook and forged a cheque for £205."added Mr. Meredith. "Had it not beenfor the promptitude of the police a veryheavy loss would have fallen on thebank teller who cashed the cheque."
Strong Plea for Chance.Mr. Goldstine, for Rusden, and Mr.
Aekins, for Ralph, made a strong pleafor the prisoners being given a chanceto rehabilitate themselves without hav-ing to suffer imprisonment for the seriesof offences, which had occurred allwithin a brief period, and were firstoffences. The cars, it was said, weredriven away until the petrol supplygave out, and were then abandoned.
Stressing the aspect that every casewhich came before the Court for sen-tence had to be decided on its own factsin relation to the offences committed,his Honor said this matter had givenhim a great deal of thought, for thereason that he could not at first seethe interests of the community servedexcept by imposing imprisonment.
However, he had decided, taking intoaccount the youth and character of theprisoners, who had apparently com-mitted the offences in a spirit of sheerirresponsibility, and the fact that thecars converted had not been wantonlydamaged, that the prisoners should beplaced on probation for three years.Among other conditions imposed wouldbe one that Rusden and Ralph shouldhave no driving license granted to themfor 12 months, and that during theperiod of probation they should notassociate with each other, unless withthe consent of both parents and theprobation officer.
A request for an order that thenames be not published was met by hisHonor with a statement that he thoughtit quite proper that the names shouldbe published.
CITY FINANCE.
COLLECTION OF RATES.ISSUE OF ASSESSMENTS.
Next week the treasury department ofthe Auckland City Council will be facedwith a big annual task, the distributionof rate assessments, and this yearapproximately 40,000 will be sent out tocity ratepayers. It is probable that sixweeks will elapse before all the rate-payers receive their assessments.
Although rates are legally due on July14 next, it will not be until January 15,1940, that the 10 per cent penalty will
be imposed. The total amount of rateslevied this year is £587,635, with, inaddition, £92,000 for water rates.
A special,meeting of the Auckland
City Council will be held at noon to-mor-row for the purpose of striking the rates,which this year have been fixed at 4/4fin the £1, a reduction of Id comparedwith last vear.

LATEsI TRACK WORK.
(By Telegraph.— Special to "Star.")
HAMILTOX, this dayThe going on the Xo. 1 grass track was
heavy and cutting out at Te Rapa thismorning, when a number of candidateswith engagements at Trentham next weekwere galloped. Several interesting trialswere recorded, the best of the morningbeing a five-furlong essay by Whirling andKoyal Bachelor. -Most of the horses areleaving to-morrow by float for Wellington.
Maori Song and l'lince Acre wereallotted useful work, and both are in goodfettle for Trentham. Maori Song hascome through his recent racing in greatheart, and it will not be on the score ofcondition if he fails to show to advantagein the south. According to present inten-tions he is to have the services of J\v inder next week. Prince Acre hasalready demonstrated his partiality forthe J rentham course and as he is bearinga healthy appearance he may extend hisaccount on the present trip.
Ellaiiui (O. Mclnallyj and Inness LadvO. Lj. Goulsbro) were associated over around, t'llanui. whose rider lost an ironover the concluding stages, had a slightadvantage over his companion at the end.He is to contest the Trentham Hurdleson Tuesday, and his promotion to opencompany should not prove a bar to fur-ther success. He looks all the better forthe racing he had at the Great Northernmeeting.
The beet effort over a sprint distancewas that of Whirling (McKenzie) andKoyal Bachelor (Goulsbro), the formerhaving the measure of his companion overthe deciding stages in I.s*£. The final*halfmile was traversed in ;>2 2-ss. Both thesemembers of A. J. Julian's string arepartial to winter conditions and shouldpay expenses on the Trentham trip.

Girdle (Maria), AwhiowhiojMcJnalJy) and Car (Goulsbro) werein that order at the end of six furlongsin 1.22. the last half mile in 565. All areentered for Wellington.
Kollicker (McKenzie) and Dn Maurier(Long) were under a firm hold over thedeciding stages of five furlongs in 1.5 1-5.Both were travelling well within them-selves throughout, and impressed by thequality o£ their work. Du Maurier, whoindicated a return to form by his forwardshowing at Te Awamutu. worked in im-proved style and may make amends nextweek for recent disappointments.
Young Paddon, who is suffering from aslight cold, will not be making the tripto Trentham.
N. R. McKenzie will be riding Hutanaat Trentham and will be 011 hand at theDannevirke meeting 011 Saturday.
J. F. Tutc-hen's pair Ellanui and Awliio-whio will have the services of O. Mclnallyin their Trentham engagements.
De Friend, who was returned to hisowner at Gisborne after the recent Bayof Plenty meeting, is to contest jumpingevents at. the Wellington meeting, andthough this will mark his debut in hurdlecompany he is reputed to be a boldjumper in private. His place in J. Muir'sstable has been filled by Prince Colossus,who may be given a course of schooling.

SPLENDID DISPLAY.
GOLD WREN SCHOOLS.
PANDINE ALSO PLEASES.(By Telegraph—Special to "Star.")
WELLINGTON*, this day.A feature of tile training work at
Trentha.ni this morning was the splendiddisplay of jumping given .by the Welling-ton Steeplechase candidate Gold Wren,who, in company with Pandine, clearedfour steeplechase fences in impressivestyle. He had a good deal of pace on allthe way, but cleared the obstacles in hisstride. Pandine also gave a faultless dis-play, but is still heavily bandaged on the■hind leg as the result of injuring himselfat the recent Dunedin meeting.
Tihe only other schooling over countrywas that of Primak, but he did not im-press, being inclined to be a bit hesitant.He will not appear till the second day.
The Wash dyke trainer P. T. Hogan hasput in an appearance with Chile, Slayer.Vocal. Alma and King Gustavo, andMount Val is to come north after racingat Oarnaru. Chile, Slayer and Vocal werelet off with easy tasks, and all bear abright appearance. Ahna was sent six fur-loilgs. infusing plenty of heart into hereffort to complete the task in 1.21, andKing Gustavo sprinted half a mile in 535.He is a likely sort to win one of thenovice events at the meeting.
Chat appealed more than Good Sun ina bout over four hurdles, measuring herfences in splendid style.
Lustral and Misurina were inclined torisk their obstacles in a school over sixfences. The former, perhaps, gave thebetter display. Misurina showed speed onthe flat.
Matoru. Lord Cavendish and El Meynellwere sent out to tea Hop six furlongs, butthe refused to jump away, andMatoru' finished in front in 1.20, the lasthalf-mile taking 545,
The reason for Dungarv.in's withdrawalfrom the Whyte Handicap is lameness, andit is doubtful if he will appear at themeeting. He has been showing signs ofthe trouble for a week or so, but the ail-ment is worse, and he has been eased up.

DOMINION PLAN.
RESTORE CREDITS.
BUREAU'S PROPOSALS.
BASIS FOR NEW POLICY.SUBMITTED TO GOVERNMENT
Proposals for restoring the stability ofXew Zealand s London funds have beensubmitted by the Bureau of Importersfor the consideration of the Government,'ho innin feature* of the proposals are:
1. Repeal of the Import and ExportControl Regulations.
а. Expansion of exports from theDominion.3- Higher interest rates.4- Repeal of the regulations suspend-
ing the duty of the Reserve Bankto convert New Zealand moneyinto sterling on demand.
3. The conversion of the whole of theDominion's loan of £17,000.000falling due in London at the endof the year.
б. The railing of an overseas loan fordefence purposes.
7- Curtailment of public expenditure.8. Regulation of the exchange rate by
the banks.9. Control of overseas credits by the
banks.Secondary Industries.
Discussing the effects of import andexport control, the bureau says theaction of the Government in attemptingto restore the London funds by a restric-tion of imports mint inevitably resultin a fall in our exports, with a lowervolume of trade resulting. As it wisfrom trade that nil employment arose,this would result in increased unem-ployment throughout the whole com-mercial system, in shipping, insuranceand banking circles, among watersides,transport workers, indent agents, manu-facturers' representatives. wholesalewarehouses, builders, department stores,and small retnil stores.
In time there would be unemploymentIn secondary industries and the profes-sions. Reduced imports would aNoseriously affect Government revenuesfrom Customs, Sales Tax and IncomeTax.
The buret.u declare* that it is notopposed to the establishment of soundeconomic industries in New Zealand,and adds: "Many efforts have been madeto define an economic industry, but itwould appear that those who are foster-ing the Idea of establishing secondaryindustries desire to shut out all -import*and create monopolies in this Dominion.Phi# we are definitely opposed to.Whether an industry is economic or notcould Ihs determined by uu independentboard consisting of representatives ofthe primary producers, manufacturers,importers and consumer interests. Thoseindustries which, as the result of in-quiry, were found to be definitely un-economic should receive no tariff pro-tection. Should manufacturer* desireto establish a secondary industry underti revenue producing tariff, an exciseduty should be paid on the goods manu-factured."
Employment aai lataraat latts.Tha bureau continue*: "The Govern-
ment baa it within ita power to reatoretbe London funds by an increaee inexport*, which in turn will increaseImports. Thaae will reault in a greatervolume of trade, greater employment,and increaaed prosperity for tbe wholecommunity. The Government can in-creaee exports by transferring back toproductive employment on the landmany of the 24,000 hien at present en-gaged in non-productive public works.
"The London fund* can be lurgely re-stored by raising interest rates andattracting investment capital to theDominion, and keeping the capital wehave in the Dominion for investmenthere. This is essential if secondaryindustries are to be supplied with thenecessary capital for development pur-poses, and furthermore, if local bodiesare to be provided with loans necessaryfor extension of works. The NewPlymouth Harbour Board recently wentinto the market for a loan of approxi-mately £300,(MX). The Government re-stricted the intereat rates which it wouldpermit to be paid to 3i per cent, butfinally permitted the loan to be raisedin Australia at 4J per cent. Otherpower boards, harbour boards and local
had similar difHcultiee, withthe result that developmental progress isbeing arrested, involving increased un-employment."
free Flow of Capital.Referring to tbe suspension of the
convertibility of New Zealand moneyinto sterling, the bureau says: "Thisexchange suspension, while effectivelyquarantining New Zealand capital with-in the Dominion, has also effectuallyshut out investment capital from abroad.This ia one of the principal causes why,despite? five months of import control,sterling funds have not been substanti-ally increased."
Advocating a conversion loan in Lon-don, the bureau takes the view thatthis is essential to meet short termrequirements and to avoid the heavycall on the Dominion's London fundswhich will materialise when a seven-teen and a quarter million loan maturesin London on December 31 next. Itsuggests that a conversion loan be |raised immediately for an amount suffi-cient to meet the loan maturing thiiyear, and adda that further considera-tion will have to be given to the pro-vision of London funds to meet heavylo«ns maturing in the next three years.
Arrangements should also be madeoversell* for an additional loan ade-quate to meet New Zealand's defencerequirements, says the bureau.
Curtailment of Public Expenditure."If the country is to be saved from
further financial embarrassment it isabsolutely essential that the Govern-ment should cut down its own expen-diture," continues the statement. "Asthere is likely to be a lower tempo intrade during the next few years, re-sulting from the enormous expenditureon rearmament, the Government shouldavoid everything other than absoluteessential expenditure, go that the heavytaxation resulting will not be a bar tocoiumcrcial progress and result in anincreased burden on the Governmentthrough increasing unemployment.
"Mr. Neville Chamberlain recentlysaid that 'the llritinh Government hadfound that the slightest improvementill trade resulted in a greater measureof employment than all the expedientsfor unemployment relief that the (iov-erument mid been able to devise.' "
The exchange rate, in tne opinion ofthe bureii'i. should be left entirely tothe banks t<* be fixed at a rate whichis justified by the> economic circum-stances for the time being and independ-ently of Government interference.
If sufficient credit* overseas are un-
available to service normal importations,the rationing of these credits should beleft entirely to the trading banks.
Credits from Experts.A* a necessary corollary to repeal of
the import control regulations, con-i hide* the bureau, the regulations con-trolling exports and the credits aecruingfrom export*, introduced on December<> last. should be repealed no that im-porters. if they linrl they are unable tosecure from the banks the necessarycredit* to pay for their importations,should be permitted to enter into com-petition for the Dominion's exportableproducts—wool, hides and sheep skins,etc.,—thus raising the price for theseexportable commodities and at the sametime providing the necessary credits toservice their importations apart fromthe rationing of exchange by the banks.This wan done extcnsi\cly by importers
during the credit shortages of 1929 and19:11-

(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)
WHITIANGA, this dayThe residents of the Mercury Bay

Some difficulty had beenmet with in obtaining a suitable site forthe proposed sports ground, but a splen-did gift by Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Lyon,in memory of their daughter, the lateMiss B.

At a meeting of the Centennial com-mittee various members spoke highlyof the services of Mr. and Mr*. Lyon inthe district and affirmed that their part-ing gift crowned all their efforts. Itwas decided to per|>etunte the name ofthe donor by calling the grounds LyonCentennial Park. Naturally the gift hasaroused considerable enthusiasm andMr. J.

BATTLE BEGINS.PARLIAMENT AT WORK.
INITIAL SITTING HELD.
PROVOCATIVE QUESTIONS.
(By Telegraph.— Parliamentary Reporter.)
WELLINGTON. this day.A flood of questions directed at vari-
ous Ministers in the House of Represen-tatives yesterday afternoon showed thatmembers of the Opposition were keen tocommence the political battle. A morecomplete opportunity will be given thisafternoon when an Imprest Supply Billwill be brought down and put throughall stages. In the questions given noticeof at the initial sitting, following theceremonial opening of Parliament by theGovernor-General. Lord Galway, manv.provocative points were raised.
The attitude of the Australian ironmanufacturers towards New Zealandorders was explained in a question askedbv Mr. C'. A. Wilkinson (Independent.Egmoiit). who stated that orders wouldnot l>e accepted unless there was fullassurance of prompt payment in Aus-tralian currency. "Does the Governmentrealise the full implications of suchaction 011 Xew Zealand currency?" heconcluded.
Lively Controversy.Another reminder of a lively con-
troversy was provided by Mr. S. <J. Hol-land (National, Christchureh North),who called the Government's attentionto the fact that a certain document,known as the Lee Letter, had beenwidely circulated throughout the Dom-inion Jiv leading trade union officials andothers. "Is it the intention of the Gov-
ernment to issue a reply to the attacksmade in that letter oil the Minister ofFinance and to the allegations asainstthe Government of shilly-shallying,vacillation, lack of pcltcy. drift and be-trayal of tlic wnrkiirr class?" lie asked.
Mr. H. S. S. Kyle (National, liiccar-ton), reminded the Minister of InternalAffairs of a promise to set up a RacingCommission and ask(«t when the per-sonnel would be announced.
There was laughter when Mr. W. A.Bodkin (National, Central Otago),moved for a return showing the numberof trades unions which had taken upportions of the recent internal loan, aridthe amounts allocated to the respectiveunions.
Financial Question.Another financial question came from
Mr. J. Hargest (National. Awarua), whowished the Minister of Finance to in-form Parliament regarding the actualborrowings by Government Departmentsduring the lust financial year and thesource from which loan money was de-rived.
Import restrictions are not over-looked. Mr. .1. U. Cobbe (National,Manawatu), called attention to a recentstatement bv the French Consul thatFrench purchases of New Zealand woolamounted to between £1.500.000 and£2.000.000 annually. He siifrpestcd thatin view of this statement and the recentthreat of a boycott of our wool sales byFrench buyers that the Governmentshould nuKlifv its restrictions on thepresent small amount of French importsto avoid disastrous effects of a boycotton the crossbred wools of the Dom-inion.
The question had been made urgentwith the object of securing a verbal!reply, but the Acting Prime Minister,Mr. Fraser, suggested that as a policy;point was raised it would be preferable !to place the question on the OrderPaper.
Mr. C. A. Wilkinson.
NAVAL RATINGS.
QUESTION IN THE HOUSE.increased pay claims.
(By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.)
WELLINGTON, this day.Reference to the rwent action taken
bv naval ratings at Devonport becauseof claim* for increased pay. wa« madein the House of Renrese»'tative« ves-terday afternoon by Mr. W. P. Endean(National. ParnelD. who addressed aouestion to the Minister of Defence.Mr. .Tone*.
Mr. Endean asked whether it was afact that about two years ago. or someconsiderable time before June 19. 1939,naval ratings of the New Zealand Navyhad made application for an increase inrates*of pay? If such an applicationhad been made, why had the Govern-ment delayed in its decisions until theratings were forced to take unconstitu-tional action ?
LAMB KILLING SEASON.

An exceptionally fine and mild autumnresulted in an extension of the season,the local works closing a week laterthan last veer. Stock were fattenedright through the autumn, and farmerswere enabled to have a good clearing up-Practically nothing that was" killablewas left to be carried over into nextyear. ,
STILL POPPIN'.HIS MAJESTY'S FUN.
PUPPETS STEAL SHOW.SECOND EDITION ON SAT.r.
'Extra! Extra!" might have beenthe cry at His Theatre lastnight when the second edition of thebrilliant t uller-Hanlon variety show"Funz-A-Poppiit' " was on sale. And itwa.* a top-notch issu^.
First, the puppets. Outstandingthough the human entertainment dis-pensers were, the ladies and gentlemenon the strings stole the show completely.Salici s marionettes provide a showwithin a ehow. Spanish song and dance,clowning, a furious bike race and acomplete classical recital were includedin their act and the audience wasunstinting in its applause when the cur-tain rose to reveal the people who pulledthe strings to such effect.
I The sequence in which a marionettePaderewski in true classical poee, playeda protracted piano piece is surely oneof the most remarkable specialtyfeatures ever presented on the stage inAuckland. The piano player himself isworth going to see.
Over the page of this second edition,headiiiff the human contingent, the audi-ence—found diminutive Bobby Morrisat the top of his whimsical form.' andleading the fun in a "Peace Conference"sketch, which was notable for the pres-ence of Gandhi and a Mr. Chamberlainplus umbrella, in a spot of attemptedburglary, in the role of a fire chief andin an amusing piece, which featured himas a harassed father.
In these sketches his chief-lieutenantwas "Bozo" Snyder, a past master inpantomime, with Elsa Hosking and KeithConnolly.
Dancing' up to the minute, togetherwitha few tunefulnumbers came from theVan Twins and the eccentricities of JackBickel were a feature.
One of the hit specialty acts of thistalent parade was the Carr Brothers',who are equaily as spectacular in clown-ing and in straight tumbling.' Elsa Lang and Murray Greene pro-vided melody with a medley of oldmusical comedy favourites. Miss Langigivintr a stirrinir rendition of the"Italian Street Sonjr."
Xo small part 111 the show was playedbv the wise-cracking Harry Poss andEddie Edwards, while Loret.ta Grevcrooned and clowned to good effect.. Allthrough this the house was treated atintervals to the tapping and swingingof "The Debutantes."
The show will be presented nightlyuntil Saturday, and Hamilton theatre-goers will see the company on Monday.

"THIS MAN IS NEWS."
COMEDY-MELODRAMA FOR REGENT
Filmed in the same light vein that madepictures in the "Thin Man" series bopopular, "This Man Is News," a murderirystery with a. novel twist to the screen-play, is to open at the Regent Theatreto-morrow. Barry K. Barnes, the English-man -who starred with Corrinne Luehairein the dramatic "'Prison Without Bars,"heads the cast, and, according to advancereports, gives the be«t performance of hisfairly short screen career. Valerie Hob-son, the beautiful heroine of "The Drum,"has the feminine lead, and she, too, givesan impressive portrayal. The other fea-tured role is filled by Alastair Sim. thecadaverous English actor who is rapidlycoming to the front rank of comedy per-formers. He, too, gives of hie beat in thisfilm and is quite as impressive as Barnes.
Barnes is cast as a newspaperman whowrite# the story of a mnrder before ithappen?. As might be exoected, this re-sults_ in him beinjr placed in a difficultposition, but he is able to prove his alibi.The crooks responsible for the killing,
i however, decide that he either possesses; amazing foresight, or else knows too much.Whichever wa.v it is, it is best for themthat he should be put out of the way.Accordingly they set to work to "get"him, and before long the reporter is him-self front-page news. He has several nar-
, row escapes from death, and the actionculminates in a thrilling gun-battle, afterwhich the master-villain is captured iniznominious Hy the reporter's
! wife, played bv Miss Hobsnn. S'"-. is seer>as the reporter's r' niral news-editor boss,who views his minlovee s efforts sensa-tionalism with jaundiced eve lie i«convinced that he has "pot something."
Made by the Paramount Company inEngland, the film is likelv to prove one ofthe most nopnl-ir Kn:rli c h productions ofthe year. Howard mad» a smooth
I job of the direction, and the film sparkles' with excitement and comedy throughout.

"With such a large number of children,the of controlling them and runningthe function smoothly was no easy one,and groat credit must be given the com-mittee, which comprised the teachers ofthe \ariotis schools, for their efficientorganisation. There was not a singlehitch and the many spectators, includ-ing parents of the children and ex-scholars who were seated in the gal-leries. were most impressed with thegay scene presented. The costumeswere most original and showed that agreat deal of thought had been put intothem. Particularly attractive werethose worn bv the tiny tots, whoseappearance in the grand parade broughtforth rounds of applause. The children
j from ea#i* school were grouped in theI four corners of the hall, over which| was placed the shield of the particularj school.

In extending a welcome to the chil-dren, Mr. Mills said that as the func-tion had necessitated rather a late hourfor sonic of the younger children, theschool committee had decided that thefollowing day would be a holiday.
Mr. Mills expressed his thanks to allthose who had worked so hard for thesuccess of the function, including thevarious committees and members of theCity Council. The playground andPliinket room for which the funds werebeing raised would serve not only theMount Eden district but also surround-ing districts.

After the prand march, music forwhich was played by Miss M. Walls, aprogramme of dances and games waspresented by the children, who weredivided into three grades. Each grade
I wore badges for identification, the col-ours being blue for the infants, red forthe intermediates and yellow for theseniors.
As each group finished its perform-ance, they went into the supper room,where supper was served at lonjr tablesdecorated with streamers and bowls offlowers.
At the conclusion of the children'spart of the programme dancing wasenioved by the adults.

UNIVERSITY WOMEN.
TALK ON AMERICA.
ISOLATION POLICY EXPLAINED.
There was a large attendance at ameeting of the Auckland branch of theFederation of University Women heldlast night, when an address on Americanisolation was given by Dr. A. Botts.The speaker, who is on exchange fromthe Cortland State Xornial and TrainingSchool, Cortland, New York, has beenlecturing in geography at the AucklandTeachers' Training College.
The guests were received by Mrs. J.Morton and Miss E. R. Edwards, andDr. A. Warnock, the president of theAuckland branch, presided at themeeting.
Dr. Botts prefaced his address bystating that in world affairs, as in foot-ball. there was a tendency to becomesideline experts. "We sometimes clieer.sometimes criticise, and are always ready-to give advice, especially just now onthe debated them 'If at lir«t you don'tconcede, fly, fly awav.'" lie said.
There was a geographical basis formuch of the psychological attitude ofAmerica to other nations in regard tothe problems facing the world to-day,continued Dr. Botts. The fact thatAmericans and Canadians could live atpeace with their 3000-mile line as anunfortified boundary between themlimited their sympathy with EuropeanStates who were constantly indulgingin frontier disputes. Again, the hugepercentage of foreign-born people Tnthe population of the United States,although a great potential danger, hadnot proved an insuperable problem, aswas apt to happen in Europe, while theracial problem, white versus negro, hadalso been solved to a very great extent.
"Such factors as these rightly orwrongly gi\e the average, American a'feeling of superiority because he "et« |along with his neighlmurs ltettcr thanthe rest of the world." said Dr. Botts.'"But it must be admitted that therehave been distinct advantages on hisside. The development of the railwaysjust at the time when the country wasready to expand toward the west unitedthe interests, commerce and industry ofthe different States. Europe would havehad a different history if her manvsmall countries could ha\e been linkedby rail in the earlier stages of theirdevelopment."
Added to all this, said Dr. Botts,America had an abundance of food anda generous variety of natural resources.VYhat wonder if her attitude tended tobecome. "We can pot along very nicelywhy can t the rest of the world do thesame?"
The lecture was illustrated bv maps,graphs and charts shown by lantern byMrs. Botts. 17

FASHION SILHOUETTE.
WHEN SPRING COMES.CLEAR, CRISP COLOURS.
Short full skirts, nipped-in waists,fitted rib-hugging- bodices, sums. up thenew young-looking little girl silhouette.Skirts sometimes as much as 17 inchesfrom the ground, shoulders squared butnot exaggerated, sleeves mostly plain,writes Betty K. Prentis in summing upthe spring collections at the Parisfashion displays.
The craze for petticoats and lingerietouches puts wool right in the middleof the fashion picture; for these crisppetticoats of faille, or lace and lawnsand these beautiful hand-made whiteblouses, collars and hat streamers justask for suits, dresses and coats of richmatt-surfaced wool to show them to per-fection. The "body" of wool gives thenecessary swing for the complete suc-cess of the full-skirted mode.

IN HOLLYWOOD TO-DAY.It Is Fashionable
To Be High Hatted.
(By SHEILAH GRAHAM.)HOLLYWOOD, June 4.
It is fashionable to be high-bat inHollywood, in the strictly literal senseof the word. A chic version of the nowhigh-crowned chapeau is the shiny blackstraw owned by Gloria Dickson. Brightred grosgrain ribbon binds the middle ofthe crown, sloping in the back to themedium-si/cd brim. Veiling attached tothe top edge of the ribbon falk over thehat just below (iloria's chin.
Lana Tinner has a two-piece '"littlegirl" summer suit made of cool ging-ham. The coat and skirt are of red andwhite checked cotton —the skirt short,flared and swinging, and the fittedjacket bound in navy ric-rac braid. Anavy blouse witli l'cter i'an collar is
edged in contrasting ric-rac of oysterwhite. To go with it is a wide-brimmedsailor of navy with ripe red cherriescaught on the under-brim of the hat.Navy patent bag and shoes complete theoutfit.
Rosalind Russell's new coat looks likea two-piece suit. The coat is of fineblack wool, with the bodice, cut on fulllines, of black taffeta. The front fasten-ing panel joins the bolero bodice andskirt. A belt of braided leather fastensin a loop-twisted knot. A guimpe ofwhite batiste inside the front of thecoat gives the illusion of an under-blouse to the semi-tailored coat-suit.
Margaret Sulla van's new hostesspyjamas, the latest in lounging comfort,combine pigskin with a heavy romacrepe. The blonde star chooses a water-melon pink shade for the very fulltrousers, with shirred bodice draped fromthe plain round neckline. A wide,natural-coloured pigskin girdle, studdedin silver individualises thesuit, and with it Miss Sullavan wearsa heavy cord snood to keep her curls inline.
Cale Soiulergaard has duplicated aBritish soldier's red coat for an eveningwrap. The smart-looking garment is inscarlet faille, with upturned front hemlined with apple-green taffeta. Gale getsa wide epaulette effect by extra padding.All the detail is exact, even to the tight-fitting tioldier's collar.
Lupe Velez, relaxing recently at PalmSprings, wore transparent oilsilkfuchsia-coloured slacks and bolero overa fuchsia an<l white striped oilsilkpuckerette bathing suit. (Oilsilk. inci-dentally, is a material much like thatused for men's tobacco pouches.)
More bathing suit news: Irene Dunne,in a Beverly Hills shop, buying a swimcs 11 it. of turquoise blue celanese andlast ex. pill-striped in white -featureswere Y-neckline. narrow shyuldcr sirupsand looped-over belt of the material. Anaccompanying reversible knee-lengthbeach coat with hood was made of terrycloth on one side and celanese on theother.
A newer version -if the popular dress-maker suit is worn by .leanette Mac-Donald in a recent film. The pink flanneljacket features a curved cut with the
back approximately three inches longer.Jeaiiette weals this over a straight-cutMack wool *kirt and pink crepe blousewith neck fichu in matching lace. Withit the Mar wears a pancake lint of blackvelvet with upstanding birds in shell-pink mother-of-pearl. Black suede acces-sories complete the ensemble (designedby Adrian).
Judy (Jarland has bought for travel-ling wear a fitted unlined navy woolcoat worn over a print, dress. Double-breasted, the princess style coat fastenswith flat pearl dirges. The high-cut t-quurcneckline is outlined in white pique. Thenavy background of (lie modified dirndltype dress covered with field flowersin white, yellow and scarlet. ,?udy wearsred leather gloves to match thestreamers on her upturned navv sailor.
Bag and gloves in red and whitechecked gingham highlight Virginia(■rev's white linen suit cut on semi-tailored line*. The actress wears amatching checked ribbon band on hernavy straw sailor and repeats the colournote on navy sandals with double-thickplatform soles outlined in lipstick red.
HOLLYWOOD GOES HIGH-HAT.—One exponent of this millinery styletrend is Gloria Dickson, who wears a shiny black straw model. Brightred jrosgrain ribbon binds the middle of the high crown and veiling,
attached to the top edge of the ribbon, fall* to just below the chin.

NEW DRINKS.
THE COCKTAIL RIVAL
The town, of Pecs has won renownwith its new drink, Mecseki, which hascome about through the light against thecocktail habit by the association ofwomen university students. The localtourist office offered a prize for a newand non-injurious drink, and three localchemists won it with an aperitif madefrom 38 different kinds of herbs fromthe Meosek mountains. Some alcohol isadded, but Mecseki is claimed to bestrengthening rather than bad for thenerves, and also an infallible cure forsea sickness.
NUTRITION TALK.
NEW WOMEN'S CLUB.
The great harm done, to the bftdythrough lack of knowledge was putbefore members of the New Women'sClub -by Mr. T. F. Stone in an addresson nutrition. The president, Mrs. W. B.Darlow, presided, and the hostesses forthe afternoon were Mrs. W. K. Tugbvand Mrs. S. M. Hamilton.
At the beginning of his remarks, Mr.Stone said he had taken for his motto,"Nature can be commanded, only byobeyingher," and quoted from the writ-ings of several famous authorities tobear out his contention that the correctmeaning of nutrition is assimulation.utilisation and elimination. He alsostressed the need for the education ofagriculturists, so that we could be surethat the land on which our crops weregrown and livestock grazed was beingkept fertile in accordance with Nature'sway. and not by the use of artificialmanures. Mr. Stone pointed out that 90per cent of our bodies was composed of
.carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen,and that if we looked after these thevitamins and minerals would look afterthemselves. Many people were being mis-led bv unscientific theories and therewas an urgent need for reform in thematter of nutrition generally.
During the afternoon Mrs. Darlowreferred to a misleading impression givenin a report of a recent lecture to the clubby Dr. Isobel Houghton. It would appearthat the correct position is as follows:—On the nursing staff at St. Mary's Homes,Otahuhu, are a number of nurse proba-tioners, who are trained in child welfarework in the hospital, and in the Camp-bell wing thirty to fifty babies and•children are taken care of. At the com-pletion of the training nurses sit for anexamination in child welfare subjects,which is recognised to be one of a highstandard. Those who pass receive thecertificate and medal of the homes, andare qualified to undertake private child
1 welfare work.

"THE UNEMPLOYEDYE HAVE—"
LESSONS FROM U.S.A.
AND THE ECONOMIC 'FLU.
PROBLEM WHICH CANNOTRECUR.
In a letter to the Editor DouglasSeymour, Hamilton, writes:—ln the vear1921 the world suffered a severeeconomic slump. In the U.S.A. therewere 0.000.000 unemployed, and thingslooked black. These, of course, were theunenlightened days before political andeconomical quackery was enthroned.They were the days of "robust indivi-dualism." They were the days whenmankind knew that inherent economicforces were continually correcting themachine, and so they let prices of goodsand labour follow their economic courseunder the law of supply and demand.
The result! By 1923—that is to say.in 18 months—American industry hadreabsorbed the whole of the <5.000.000unemployed and, like Oliver Twist, wasshout nig for more!
In the year 1932, the U.S.A., in thegrip of another slump, had a problemof 9.000,000 unemployed. But this timethere came to its rescue a man billedas sent from (!od for the purpose, whosename was Franklin Roosevelt. Having"gotten more wisdom and knowledgethan all those who have gone before mein Jerusalem." histrrry could teach himnothing. He made, in fact, a particularpoint of ignoring everything upon which'mankind had hitherto thought it couldrely. Anything "robust"' or "indivi-dualistic'' was scorned, so that the wordsbecame terms of contempt. And so hegot to work. He exhausted the alphabetin letter combinations to describe theDepartments he created. He primedevery pump he could find —particularlythe hot air pump—until he was blackin the face, and doubled the nationaldebt in doing so. He inflated the dollarand sucked into America thousands oftons of gold that he has had to bury.And the result? After seven years ofstvugpTp, he has finished up with12,000,000 unemployed.
The patient used periodically to geta dose of economic 'flu. He used to lieup for a few days and use the homeremedies of his ancestors. But thenthe quack came. None of theseancient remedies were any good to thequack. Everything was to be so pleas-ant that the patient would not evenknow he was being cured. He is nowin galloping consumption.
Now what is the significance of thesethings for New Zealand, wlier.e our vest-pocket Roosevelts. bruised, grimy andincoherent, are still ducking and slith-
.ering along the road to Utopia? His-tory, of course, can teach them nothing
I because they neither know nor want| to know, and just now they have noI time to think, anyway. A little whileago, they were proclaiming that theywere making history. Now they are notso sure that they aren't. They canpride themselves on enjoying the fullmeasure of success which has attendedthe efforts of Franklin Roosevelt. Theyhave spent millions in the encourage-ment of unemployment and have madeit the most popular industry in NewZealand. In reaching this happy stateof affairs it is satisfactory to know thatboth political parties have worked incomplete co-operation.
Those who noted it at the time mayremember that about 10 years ago whenWard came into power* we had 3000unemployed. (Nobody, of course, nowa-days ever remembers a time, or canconceive of there ever having been one,when the unemployed were not anational problem.) "Ward boldly pro-claimed that he knew how to settlethis unemployment problem. He wouldsettle it "in three weeks." In threeweeks, he had 0000 unemployed. Inthree months, he had 30,000 unemployed.And then he shut up and suppressed thefigures. Ever since that day the poli-ticians have been faking the records inorder to cover up Jlie facts of their ownrefutation. Unemployed have beenburied in public works, buried in "overthe fence" schemes, buried under everylabel but the true one.
Recently it was given out that unem-ployed had ceased to exist and theSocial Security Act naturally made noprovision for something which neitherexisted nor could possibly again recur.I notice, however, that farmers are sub-sidised 75 per cent of the wages ofpeople to be taken to work on farms.If ever a scheme could properly becalled "over the fence" this one surely is.I could have hoped that the farmerswould have had the stuffing to reject itneck and crop. But apparently, likeother sections of the community—justas a tip is offensive to one's personalpride unless it is sumcienily large—-they are prepared to accept this charit-able -id in unlimited quantities, as long
it masquerades under the alias ofsocial security. And for the future; thefarmer can safely let the work on hisfarm go to blazes, so long as he can,in due course, muster one-quarter of thecost of putting it again in order. So,courage, fellow citizens; Utopia is only25 per cent away.
COMPANY FORMED.
MARLBOROUGH EX-SOLDIERS.EXAMPLE TO* YOUNGER MEN.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)BLENHEIM. Wednesday.
Over sixty returned soldiers attendeda meeting last evening and formedthemselves into a company, to be knownas the "Marlborough Returned Soldiers'National Reserve Company." The com-pany will undertake a certain amountof voluntary training with the objectof becoming efficient for the purpose oflocal defence.
The meeting was convened by theMarlborough Returned Soldiers' Asso-ciation and all present enrolled, withthe addition of several members unableto attend.
Mr. F. B. Lloyd, the president of theassociation, expressed the hope that theexample of the ex-servicemen would befollowed by the younger men of thedistrict.
The parade was then handed over toa staff sergeant-major, who immediatelynnimenred squad drill, followed by an
Jxplanation of the Bren machine-gun.Two former war nurses also enrolled.As far as general recruiting is con-
cerned, since Mr. Savage's appeal, 67lien have enlisted in the Mounted Riflesliogiment, which is now entirelvmechanised. This is regarded as a satis-factory response for a town the size ofBlenheim, but a disappointing featureis the lack of recruits from countrydistricts. The establishment of theregiment has actually been attained,but the officers are anxious to'train asmany recruits as are offering. Recruit-ing in Class I. of the National MilitaryReserve is considered poor.
IS IT A RACKET?TRADE IN POTATOES.
CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES.government investigation.
- Iterations that the present abnorm-ally high prices of potatoes in New Zea-land are the result of a racket that isbeing- worked by speculators and not, asis commonly believed, due solely to therebeing a shortage of potatoes, are to bethe subject of investigation by theGovernment, according to a statement
| made by the Minister of Industries and| Commerce, the Hon. D. G. Sullivan,states the "Standard."
It is alleged that present prices, thehighest ever known in the trade at thistime.of the year, are the direct resultof hoarding by speculators who haveacted on the belief that potatoes wouldbe declared a perishable commodity andwould not be subject to control b'v thePrice Investigation Tribunal. However,the tubunal has declared that potatoesare not perishable within the meaning°f re g»la tions and consequentlynotification of increases in prices musthe made.
Ascertaining Stocks.Mr. Sullivan stated that the Govern-ment was taking steps to ascertainthe stock position in respect of potatoes
in New Zealand.If, as a result of the survey, it ap-pears that there is evidence of undueholding of stocks on the part of any
interests, ' the Minister said, "the Gov-ernment will rot hesitate to take suit-able action.
"In this connection there are amplepowers in the Board of Trade Act, 1919to cover the position. Section 32 of thatAct states, mter alia, that every personcommits an offence who, beino- jn pos-session of goods fordestroys, or hoards and refuses to sell,such poods, or to make them availabletor sale if such destruction or hoardingand refusal raises, or tends to raise, theC°"T f
° f i° ther. similar £°ods to the public.If the evidence obtained as a resultof the survey points to the fact thata judicial inquiry should be held by the1 rice Investigation Tribunal to supple-ment the information as to the stockposition, and to ascertain whether ornot the present prices of potatoes arereasonable, having regard to all the cir-cumstances, then such inquiry will be
U.S. WORLD CONTACTS.
AMERICA'S SELF-INTEREST.ADDRESS TO CREDITMEN.
' AmericaV Contacts with the World''was the subject of a:i address by Dr.A. K. Botts, of the Cortland NormalSchool, New York, at the luncheon thisSchool, New York, at the lunchcon ofthe Auckland G'reditmen's Associationyesterday afternoon.
Dr. Botts hasi completed a stay ofsome months in New Zealand and willshortly return to the United States.'On the surface it seems that thedifference between the United States andthe British Empire in world affairs isthat we stand. 011 the sideline and cheer,while British people are actual partici-
pants, said Dr. Botts. "Sometimes, ofcourse, we don't cheer."
proceeded to outline reasons whvthe interests of his country were cen-tered in North America. *The UnitedStates, he said, did not need to be inter-ested in expansion, unlike such crowdednations as China and Japan.J-ack of fortified boundary lines gavethe United States a sense of com-placency, some times unjustified, said Dr.Botts. The i>eople, therefore, wereapt to look across to Europe and wonderwhy those countries there could not getalong.
"Another reason for America's internal,rather than external, interest is that wehave an abundance—more than ourshare—of the world's commodities," con-tinued Dr. Botts. The country was,'therefore, fairly self-sufficient.
Railroads had played a most import-ant part in making the country a singleunit, he said, for rail development hadkept apafle with internal migration.
In conclusion Dr. Botts said that theunderlying reasons for the admitted self-interest of the United States lay not inthe obstinacy of some of her leadersbut were based on the geography andhistorical development of the countryitself. '
STILL DELAYED.
CHARTERED MOTOR SHIP.
CREW REMAIN ADAMANT,
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, Wednesday.The deadlock between certain members
of the crew of the Union Steam ShipCompany's chartered motor vessel CapeHorn and their employers continued to-day and the ship lay idle at Lvttelton.It is understood the men. 12 of whomare staying in Christchurch, expect thatthe master of the vessel, Captain Mc-Kenzie, will seek the issue of warrantsfor their arrest shortly and they willwelcome some definite move such astheir arrest so that they may air theirgrievances.
As the men had not returned to theship during the day Captain McKenziegot in touch with them. He askedthem to resume their duties. They re-plied, however, that they would not dosa until their previous demands weremet. These would involve the ship beingIplaced under New Zealand articles whileengaged in the Pacific Coast-New- Zea- 1land-Australian trade, instead of Englisharticles as at present, under which therates of pay for firemen and seamen areabout half of those received in vesselson New Zealand articles.

AMUSEMENTS.
EMBASSY.Two of the finest players in Britain orthe Continent, Klisabpth Bergner andMichael Redgrave. are co-starred inStolen Life." which is proving a strongattraction at the .Kmbassy Theatre. Miss
Bergper is well-known as a dramaticactress by reason of her brilliant perform-ances in such triumphs as "Escape MeNever and Dreaming Lips." She has ahigh reputation, and lives right up to itin the difficult dual role of twin sisters,that she tills in "Stolen Life." MichaelIRedgrave has had less screen experience,having made his film debut in '"The Lady\ anishes. but he is just as impressiveas his fellow star, and gives an excellentportrayal. jT'ie story is of the complica-tions that -follow the impersonation of aflirtatious young wife of an explorer byher quieter twin sister. It is a complextheme, but is deftly handled by all con-cern ed.
ST. JAMES'.Against the exotic background . of
Hawaii. Eleanor Powell, one of the fastesttap-dancers in the world, swings shapelylegs to attractive music in her latest star-ring vehicle. "Honolulu." which opens atthe St. .lames' Theatre to-morrow. MissPowell has been seen in some highly suc-cessful films in thp past, but this one pro-mises to be the best of the lot. "Rosalie"included. The story is more substantialthan usual for films of this type and therpis comedy a-plenty provided, mainly bythat famous comedy duo. George Burns
[ and Gracie Allen. Robert Young has theleading male role, opposite Miss Powell,and he has a dual role—as a movie idoland as a planter from Hawaii. The storycentres round the adventures of the actor,when he arranges for his double to imper-sonate him and let him go away for aquiet holiday. When he is away he meetsa cabaret dancer and falls in love withher. Things become complicated when heis saddled wivh the worries of the planter,namely, an embezzlement; charge, and afiancee. There is trouble for all concernedbefore things are straightened out in theend.
MAYFAIR.The adventures of a rather pampered
vminc American, son of an Embassyofficial in London, "when he goes to theAmerican military academy at West Pointafter a period at Cambridge University,are depicted in "The Duke of WestPoint." at the Mayfair Theatre. Somewhatalong the lines of "A Yank At Oxford,"the screen play tells how the young manin made the butt of numerous jokes by hi6comrade*, until he shows his worth in aClipping climax. Louis Hayward is excel-lent in the leading role, and shows that hisfine work in "The Saint In New York"whs no fluke. .Tr#m Fontaine, Olivia deHavilland's sister, is just as impressive inthe feminine lead, and convincing acting isalso displayed l>y Tom Brown and RichardCarlson.
CIVIC.Action is the keynote of the techni-
colour screen version of the adventuresand exploits of .Jesse -Tames, one of themost, colourful characters in America'shistory, nooning at the Civic Theatre to-morrow. The use of colour has resultedin the scenes l>ein<r depicted with par-ticulai vividness. and there is not a dullmoment in the entire production. Good-looking young Tyrone Power, who has. inhis comparatively short career, won hisway to the forefront of Hollywood's stars,has the title role. He gives one of his bestexhibitions of acting, and makes thecharacter an attractive one. Nancy Kelly,ill her second at>pearance in first-classfilms, has the feminine lead, and the sup-porting cast includes such celebrities asHenry Fonda. John C'arradine. Slim Suni-inerville and Donald Meek. All give soundperformances. and aid materially inmaking the film fit to rank with the bestof the year.
PLAZA. *
Richard Greene. the good-looking youngEnglishman who won instant popularity
I with his fine performances in Menj and a Prayer" and "My Lucky Star," hashis best role since going to Hollywood in
| "Submarine Patrol," at the Plaza Theatre.| [n this film he is seen as an engineer onI board one of the shallow-draft motor boatswhich made "P the main form of counter-attack by America against German Ü-boats in the Atlantic Ocean during theGreat War. The hazards of the men whosailed these craft were almost unbeliev-able. and exceptionally tine productiontechnique has resulted in much of ( thedrama and excitement of their daily livesbeing captured for the screen. Starringopposite Green. Xancy Kelly, t»lie pretty17-vear-old youngster, who makes her
screen d<»but in this film, gives an excel-lent. performa me. and more likely to beheard <>f her in the future. George Ban-croft. I'reston Foster. Slim Sonierville and•lohn I'arradine are others prominentlycast.
STRAND.One of the most amazing flights ever
made forms the subject of an interestingstory in 11 Ihe Flying Irishman. at theStrand Theatre. The flight referred to isthat made by Douglas Corrigan. the youngAmerican who flew the Atlantic in anancient monoplane—and then said it wasall a mistake. Corrigan is the star of theHim. and a strong supporting cast includesJ'aul Kollv and Joyce C'ompton. Ihestorv begins with Corrigan's strugclcs asa lad in San Antonio. Texas, and followshis life up to the time he makes hisepoch-making ocean crossing. Corrigandoes not have much to do in the wav ofacting, but ho shows that he h<wi anattractive personality, and skilful direc-tion makes up for any lack of ability onhis part.

WILLING TO COACH.
FORMER ALL BLACKS.
ASSURANCE TO KL'GBY UNION.
Assurance that he and other playerswith similar experience would be willingto assist Auckland club teams in pickingup the true principles of scrummaging -provided they could do so without tread-ing on the toes of present coaches-—was(riven to the management committee of theAuckland Rugby Union last night li.v W.E. H.idley! the All Black hooker, who. illcompany with M. M. N. Corner, attendedat the invitation of tlx' committee to dis-cuss suggest ions that international ploverswith practical experience of the ~-4-1scrum iformation should help to coachAuckland teams.
Pointing out that coaches were "jealouscreatures.'' Hailley declared that if theI!>4H All Blacks went to South AfricaWithout knowing the proper principles of3-4-1 scrummaging. they would ro thruiijihthe same ordeal as the I!>H5 team in GreatBritain. The 1!135 combination, he said,had received their coaching from menbrought ui> in I lie 2 3-2 school and. whenopposed to English x>acks taught the 3-4-1theories from the start of their l'ootlballcareers, were pushed all over the paddock.
"We were laughed at," Hudley declared,"until we found after the Cardiff gamethat we had evolved the correct methodof packing. Then, instead of being beatenfor possession, we began to dominate theserums."
It watt decided that the results obtainedby Messrs. Hadle.v and Corner ill Coachingtile junior representative fifteen should becarefully studied. A suggestion was madetlutf their ideas might be either incor-porated In a iilm or demonstrated by twopacks for the benefit of coaches.

SHORE STARRED.
MAIN LEAGUE GAME.
TO MEET MANUKAU SIDE.RICHMOND TO PLAY MOUNT
ALBERT.
Pride of place in the Auckland RugbyLeague's senior competition fixtures, whichwill be continued on Saturday afternoon,will be given to the North Shore team,which is now at the head of the champion-ship table. Their match with Manukati.on the main ground, should result in agood exhibition of the code. The Shoreteam in particularly strong in the for-wards and as their backs have remarkabledefence they are a very difficult team todefeat. The Manukaii form this s®isonhas been variable, but the team playbright, open and spectacular football ofthe kind that the spectators enjoy. Ifthey ;xive one of their best displays andshow combination, the issue may be indoubt right to the end. Manukaii shouldbe able to match N'orth Shore with heavyforwards, and it remains to be seenwhether the Manukaii backs will be ableto overcome the opposition thev will meet.
The early match on the Xo. 1 groundwill be between Mount Albert and Rich-mond. and a very close contest may result.Mi.unt Albert wei e the leading team inthe competition until deposed by XorthShore and they have one of the bestteams in Auckland.
Marist will meet Papakura in the earlymatch on the No. 2 ground, and the resultshould be close in view of improved Papa-kura form of late.
Newton have been drawn to meet Cityin the following' match on the sameground, and it is possible that speed andcombination- may carry the former tovictory.

BIG FAREWELL PLANNED.
A decision to hold a public farewell tothe Auekland members of the New Zealandteam at Carlaw Park on July 122 was madeby the control board of tne Auckland RugbyLeague last evening. The board wasassured of tlie wholehearted co-operationol the junior and school grades and a fullparade of players. it was also indicatedthat the Maori teams and their supportersin the game were prepared to participatein a unique ceremony for the occasion.
Mr. F. T. McAneny was appointed masterot ceri»uonies for tlie day.Arising from a recent discussion on thereplacing of players, the City Rovers clubsuggested that the oncoming player shouldnotify tli-. line umpire and. as soon as hewas able, i: Mfy tlie referee, thus elimina-
ting any delay which may otherwise occur.Mr. J. Kukutai said his opinion was thatthe replacing player should go on as soonas possible.Mr. Campbell said the City Club idea
seemed to be reasonable. It was in thespirit of the game, for no team should behandicapped. The difficulty of a player tocontact a referee sometimes during a gamecould be undersrood.
It was decided that the proposal be senton to the Referees' Association with a sug-gestion that this may be a satisfactorysolution to a phase of replacement ofplayers.
The first series of matches in the firstround, missed by the reserve grade duringthe visit of Eastern Suburbs of Sydnev, isto be played on the date of the inter-Islandmatch. July S.

EARL McCREADY'S RECORD.
ONLY ONCE BEATEN IN N.Z.
That there is no greater wrestler in theworld than the bie- Canadian. Karl Mc-
C ready, <hainpion of the British Kinpire,is the opinion <>f many notable critics.( ertainly 110 greater wrestler has ever beenseen in Xew Zealand. Kd. Strander Lewisniiyht be claimed to have that title—butMet ready beat him in two successivematches here. Blomfield has drawn withhim. but has not yet defeated him. andso it in with mil the array ofwrestlers who have been scon in this coun-try. 'I his is MeC'ready's fourth seasonlieie. and in all the matches lie foujrhthere he was beaten only once. That wasat Carlaw Park in 1036. when he wasinjured in falling from the vinjc in a boutwith Ed. Don whom he later de-feated. There will be keen interest in thematch to be presented at the Aucklandtown Hill 1 on Saturday night between Mc-Cready and Ijrnaeio Martinez, the jiower-ful Spanish wrestler. Martinez lia« provedhimself this year to be -a really finewrestler of versatile equipment. Of gigan-tic proportions he bases TTis attack onscientific methods nnrl his ability is provenby the fact that he has drawn with thepresent world <hampion. .Tim London, andalso with the previous champion. BronkoXiigurski. It should be a notable matchnot only ill that it will be the firstappearance of the Empire champion herethis reason, but also for t'e' quality ofwrestling that it should reveal.

NIGHT BASKETBALL.
SEVEN-A-SIBE GAMES.
■ ENTERPRISE OF THE Y.W.C.A.
An innovation so far as basketball inAuckland is concerned has been introducedthis year by the Y.W.C.A. Before Easteru group of girls from the association visitedAustralia, their stay in Sydney,they played several matches against Aus-tralian teams. As the Australians plavedseven-a-side aud the New Zealauders hadprewously always played nine-a-side. tlio>cw Zealand girls were hopelessly out-classed. lherefore. when the Y.W.C Aformed a night basketball club at thebeginning of the season the teams partici-pating decided to go the whole way withthe international rules and play seven-a-side. This is the first time in New Zea-laiul that seven-a-side basketball lias beenplayed to any extent. The players quicklvadupted the rules and they show aptitudelor this form of play.
1 he association has the co-operation andir need be. the help of the Auckland Asso-ciation. but it is otherwise independent ofthe latter body. It does not send delegatesto the New Zealand Association's confer-ences. but, apart from playing seven-a-side.it observes the rules . and manages the.games in • much the same wav as otherassociations.
The innovation of niirlit basketball liasgrpatly helped those girls who do not plav011 Saturday afternoons. However, someof the players turn out on Saturdays aswell. Only one court on the roof of themain building of the Y.W.C.A. in CpperQueen Street is in use. and there are eightfloodlights to provide illumination. Thecourt is iHi the open air. but in the eventof rain 11n* games can be continued in theha sement.
Miss Barbara Stalker is the organiserand. as a graded referee, controls themajority of the games. Some of the girlsin the senior teams also assist in referee-ing. Of the teams at present competing.George Courts are definitely superior, withTattersnlls offering stiff opposition.

TAKANINI TRAINER.
A FINE RECORD.F. SMITH'S STABLE.
WINNINGS EXCEED £26,000.
Since setting up as a trainer in Taka-lihii, F. Smith has achieved marked success,his efforts during the current season bring-ing him well into tlie limelight, and henow occupies a very prominent place inthe list of successful trainers lor theDominion. Jr. in also apparent that hisposition at the head of the Aucklandprovincial trainers is unthreatened.
Arriving here in the 1!)30-.'H season,Smith set up as a private trainer to thewell-known sportsman Mr. T. Impey. andhe met- with instant success with Envoy,Camp Princess, Principal and Camp Prince,while in the following year Exaggeration.Holly Liu. Greek Gold. Principal andImperial Prince won between them tenraces and £164.) in stakes. In the 1932-33 season, with the addition of GoldPocket, those horses mentioned improvedthe tally to thirteen wins and £ -.380in stake*. The following season Smithbranched out as a public trainer, and inaddition to retaining Mr. Invpeys horses,quickly established a very useful team thathas since consistently won its share of thestakes offering. A feature of their per-formances was at the Christmas meetingtwelve months ago. when six races werewon. four of these being in su -cession.The following statistics reveal Smith'sprogress through the years, when it willbe seen that his headwav has been markedby slead y increases, culminating in theline returns of over £7000 for two con-seeulive seasons.

The tally therefore reaches the tinetotal of !N) wins. 128 placing? and .£26.2281<" i'l stakes, while if this season's figureswere taken into account as far as stake-earnings are concerned, it is extremelydoubtful whether there ure many of thosetrainers 011 the winning list above Smithwho nave as good a return.
During the jiresent term Smith acquiredthe training establishment of .1. T. .lamie-son. now in Sydney, and the spaciousgrounds and private training track offeradditional facilities. Sheltered in thosestables at the moment is a tine team forthe new season's racing and while it isa matter for conjecture whether anothergood season as the last two have been willbe as productive it i« quite 011 the cards
that the stable will be well to the fore-Round Up is at present spelling, the
Lord Quex gelding having a marvellousrecord during the last couple of seasons,and was considered very unlucky m nothaving also added the Auckland Cup tohis attractive record. He is now well upin the weights, but he has only to train onin a satisfactory manner to be a force to
be reckoned with in our main handicapevents this spring. Valaniito, too. is
another handicapper of note who shouldprove a very usetul second string. i hisgelding races in the colours of his trainer.
Two useful hacks in \ aalso and lahiticreated very favourable impressions intheir racing during the latter part of thisterm, but. after the .lime meeting atKllerslie they were put aside for a respite.
Orelio. one of the best, but unluekiestof tliis season's juveniles. had fewsuperior at his best, and while he is stilla hack as far as stake earnings are con-cerned he is confidently expected to extendthe best of his age next year.
Full Hand is another young galloper ofconsiderable promise and he did wellenough on a restricted programme to indi-cate possibilities in any company now thathe has gained sufficient racing experience.
There are also a number of young horsesin the team, of whom the best has yet tobe seen, and included in this category areGladyuev. a rising three-year-old byMusketoon—Caviare, Proud Fox, a geldingof the same age by Foxbridge—RoyalMarch, a yearling by Foxbridge—Sealoria;another by Hunting Song—Gold Money;S'oung Finance, a rising three-year-old bySpear Dance from that good sprinter HighFinance, and Sunola, a younger fullbrother tn Round Up.
It will be seen, therefore, that the teamis vorv formidable and one which shouldagain be well in the limelight when thespring racing campaign commences.

IMPROVED COLT.STONEHAVEN'S PROGRESS.
NOT OVERTAXED.
. ROUND ABOUT ELLERSLig.
Although Stonehaven has not been mo-taxed since the autumn, he is thrivingexceptionally well on the work W. Kmis allotting him. Like others of the samefamily, this two-year-old has been grrnr.injr very fast, and for that reason heonly been required to race once. Theexperience will prove useful to Stone-haven when he begins racing again nextseason. Jn conformation this colt hasmade marked improvement, having jg,veloped noticeably since the autumn, butowing to his size it is not intended tohurry his preparation.
TO CONTEST SPRINT EVENTS.Having his first race since February
Sporting Gift drew attention to his fatai«prospects when he ran third in thepua Handicap at Otaki last week-ead.This gelding has been a consistent perlformer this season, winning on five occa-sions, and now that he is back to formhe should be worth following. Sporta-.Gift will contest sprint events atTrentham.
BACK FROM A SPELL.Glen Abb. who has been out of actionsince April, is being hacked about andwill resume wc.rk again shortly. He is abit in the ••rough" at present and willneed .a fair amount of work before he

This brother to Scotlandwon a minor event at the Te Arohameeting last February, but did little rac-ing subsequently. He has grown into asolid-looking gelding, also beans a strongresemblance to his relative, and if heproves to be as good lie will not be hardto place.

SPIDER'S PARLOUR"THE failed gilt lettering over the low,
frowsy window announced '"Spider'sI'iirlour." Actually the place was oneof the worst dives in Tiger liny, thatwaterfront, section of the Cardiff dockswhich is one of the world's toiigbe»t-pots for shore - lea \ e sailors and police.
11l I lie hack room a group of menwere gathered round a taldc. Tohaccosmoke blued the air.
"I want you all to know." the leanman willi Ihe smudge of lilack mou-stache ;iliniM hi- upper lip was saying,"that .lingo's out of the way for good.Oct that—lor good."
Mis eyes roved the room, and beforetheir clia I leiiging flitter tin' glances of(lie other men drooped. .Nil save one.doc I .oftu- feared neithel man nor'devil. Some said it was the Irishstreak in him. which was broad: othersthat it was the nigger streak, whichwas broad enough to give his face adeep tan.
"How did volt li\ it. Spider';" askedj.loc.Spider knuckles gleamed
whitely a- he shifted his weight oil tohi- clenched lists.
I'lie cops found him with a load ofheroin, and lie couldn't give a satisfac-tory an-wer."
doe smiled."\ i >11 I'm ineil hi m. hull ?"
Spider frowned. "I y< >t rid of him..Toe—l hat's what I did. We can't all'ord,in this organisation, to have anyoneholding out. We can't all'ord to haveto carry a passenger. Agreed?"
There were grunts id' cautions ap-proval. doc Loll lis' remained the onlygaze directed at Magce's face.
'1 would have had liiin rulihed out."said Spider, his tone suggesting that hehad the softest heart in the world. "HutI thought ot his girl. She wouldn't likeit."'
doe laughed."No. an' she wouldn't like von. Spider
—huh?".Majjec scowled.
| "I don't have to take that sort of lip.doe." lie reminded the other.
doe wasn't perturbed. "Von don'thave to take an yt liinjr. but you do," he.-tinned. "A hell of a lot.'*'
I'or a moment there was uncasvsilence, broken when Spider said: "dustto prevent any misunderstanding, I'mtaking over Hetty. See?"
'hey saw all right. Hetty was theblue-eyed blonde who had hung to•lingo - arm. .lingo hadn t j.r une downwilli Spider, and now til* 1 police hadI'im on a t ruiupcd-iip charge wliichMagee had fixed. All of which went to-how how dangerous it was to crossSpider, and how he usually got what liewanted in the end.
"Docs Hetty know it ?" asked Joe,lighting a fresh cigarette.''or a moment the Spider's eves"'ea Hied wildly, hut the ue\l instant liehad himself in control."She's here right now. waifing to bepleasant."'I here were one or two snickers."So that's why you -hopped .lingo.'"
said doe. oil w anted his gh|. Spider."Magee sat down in hi.s eliair. and reniained very still.I. don t have to take that from vou.doe. Ik- said very (jnietlv.
"It might hapi'ien to any of us." saiddoe. "We want to know where we standDon t we hoys?''Ihere was a muttered assent. Xoone could have said where it originated
or who had opened his lips."
\la»eewatched the others, and saw that liehad to do something to retain his holdon the situation.
"I II tell you where you stand." liesaid. "We shift the rest of the stulVtonight, to the new dump. I've "otword that Scotland Yard are sending aspecial investigator down here. There'sI'een to much dope slipping into thecountry, and they've decided' it doesn'tall come up the Thames. All ri"ht wemove ahead of things. That ua v wekeep safe."'
'-Not me.' said doe. and the othersstared at him. "1 want my pav out now.I've done my share. But" I in* not tang-ling any with a special investigatorfrom the \ard. Those monkeys haveevery trick in their bag." Me stood uptowering into the smokv shadows abovethe cabin lamp. "I'll'take my sharenow. Spider, and drift."
Mis hand came away from his coatpocket holding a gun.Must to show I'm taking no chances "
he grinned. "And that I don't likeguys who trade in pals for their girl."
• His smile was gone, replaced in- ablank mask, in which his eves shonelike round buttons.
Hut unfortunately for ,To P Loft us itwas too late to have ideals. SpiderMagee was in the game too deep to riska man getting out at this stave. liehad prepared long weeks ago againstany such happening. °
i nder the table his hand sought some-thing cold and hard that lav on a cun-ningly contrived ledge. doe Loftusslithered to the floor under the hail ofbullets directed at him. The otherssprang back from the table, cowering.
"A pity." said Spider, rising slowly,but the fool had it coining to him.Ilia mouth was getting too slack. Crabyour chairs. I haven't linislied. I'mcoming to the important part, and Ihaven't a hell of a lot of time.''
Sheepishly tlie others resumed theirseats. The sprawled body of Joe re-Mini lied on the floor, untouched by the"lof yellow light falling oil thescarred table-top.
Spider's voice droned oil.Behind him hung a heavy nirtain.Behind the curtain was a locked door.
Behind the locked door was a room thatwould have staggered any of those menin the dingy room behind the shop, itwas auinptoualy furnished. Indirectlight fell upon velvet aii<l chrome. Thickpile carpets covered the floor. It was aroom one would have expected to liiulin the most exclusive Mavfair flat, nottucked away behind a waterfront diveill Tiger Hay.
The girl in the room had bright. corn-coloured hair, ami in the soft pencil-lighting reflected from the pastel-tintedwalls her eve« were of thatsdeep gentianblue that usually accompanies u flawlessskin.
She was working over the tumblersof a. safe, all her attention given to hertusk. At last, with a deft turn, the doorof the safe swung open.
Eagerly she stepped forward andexamined the contents. There werestacks of papers, bundles of money,bonds, some small packages wrappedin tissue paper. There were pieces ofjewellery, the proceeds of one of Spider'sside-lines, lint the girl did not coiicviiherself with these. She, hunted untilshe found 1 a small red-bound book. -\
glance revealed that it had the in forilla-tion she sought.
Then she was putting back the otherpapers,, the bundles of currency, and thejewellery. She had closed the door ofthe safe and sprung the lock, and just 1
Short StoryBy
Leo Greyhad time to compose herself upon a si|k-co\ereil divan, w hen the farther do >,•
opened, and Magee, smiling with antici-pa t ion. came in.'I'lie door clicked shut behind him."Well. Belly, now I have been able
to clear up a little business I've got tiin-to look after you, sweethe«irt."
I he girl tell a deep fear stir withinher. but there was no fear in her fa ••.
«is she tin tied towards him. She knewthat the one thing she must never sho.vSpider Magee was fear. Her loathing,which rose until it all but choked her.had to be coll t rolled, hidden, lie muslnever suspect her secret, never! Or else
His words broke rudelv upon herthoughts.
"What have you got to say to me.Hctt_ ! Areu t you glad t*> sec me?"
'I he girl rose, tdcing the wolfish glarein his eves. As his arms closed about hershe felt faint, hut steeled herself toundergo the ordeal. She had to. Kverv-tliing. she told herself, depended uponher.
"Of course. Spider. But you've beena long time."
He stood back, holding her arms,devouring her with his ga/e.
"I'm a busy man. Betty. T have a lotof things to attend to. you know." Hi'laughed lightly. "Yes. a great deal ofthings—but they can wait now.
"By Ood. yes, they can wait - evo. v-tliing can wait now!"
Again faint ness assailed her limbs, andagain she made an etl'ort' t hat weariedher.
"I don't think you really like me.Spider, or you wouldn't have kept me solong.' \ es. that was it. -he told her-self. she must appear petulant, annoyed.That, would hold him off. give her time.She had to have time. "You think '"illpretty, but I'm only a passing fancy,urcii'l 1. Spider? I'm not— ~"
lb' swept her into his arms again."\ou re everything I want right now."
he said huskily, and the wolfish expres-sion returned to his face. lie kissedher brutally. "Betty. lin cra/.v aboutyou. I ndersta lid ? Why. if a man .-amebetween us I'd kill him with mv ownhands."
She strained against him."But -lingo!"' she gasped.He laughed, holding her tighter,"'•lingo! He won't trouble you again.
I've taken good care of him, sweetheart.I-'orget liiin!"
"But you haven't "
His face gloated."Killed him? Not yet. But late;',
perhaps, when "
"Xo, Spider, no! Not not murder!"'His scowl returned. "Don't say you're
still feeling soft about that tramp.Betty." He seized her roughly. "Don'ttell me you
She struggled against him. instinctively,blindly. She knew that in some way shehad betrayed herself. She saw dawningcomprehension iu his face. As she twistedto elude his grasp her dress tore, thelittle red-bound book fell to the floor.
Spider released her. He stood gatingdown nt the book, as though it were a|K iol of blood.
"Oreat Ood!" he muttered, lookingfrom the book to the dosed safe. "Sothat's il - a spy! You thought, you couldrob Spider Magee and get away with it.You. .lingo's girl—a nark!"
His coarse laughter b.at upon hersuddenly numbed senses. Then lie wasijuiet. Horribly <|iiiet. He stood therefor moments that to the terrified girlseemed hours, ju-t looking al her. cal-culating. She cowered back, facing him,defenceless.
Suddenly lie flicked an arm. and inhis hand was an open jack-knife. Tin;light touched its naked blade, turningit to a bar of Blight ness that held hergaze as the eyes of a snake hold theattention of a bird.
Then lie took the first step forward.She opened her mouth and screamed.
He laughed again, this time withsneering inflexion.
"These walls are sound-proof," hemocked her.
He advanced to within a couple offeet of her. He had only t<f stretch outa hand and her life could be- snuffedout. It was in those moments whenshe thought everything lost that Bettyrose to her greatest height.
"Your days as ruler of Tiger Bav.Spider Magee." she said clearly, "areover. Vou can kill me. but that won'tchange things. You'll go to the sealfoldanyway."
"Words," he sneered, flourishing theknife.
"It's only postponing your end.Spider." she went. on. ".lingo wasn'twhat you thought—"
"I suppose lie was a nark like you!""lies Inspector Jones of Scotland

He grabbed one of her wrists.
"What's that, you say? To-night?He's a Yard man—this special investi-gator I heard aliout—and he'd fixed to-night?''
"I said it's only a postponement.""And you':" he rapped.Her courage was now in full tide.
She even smiled, and sight of the Madein hi.s hand no longer appalled her.
"I m engaged to him. This was hisbig chance to make good, and J madeup my mind to help linn. He became• lingo, and I was his—his girl. Andnow—
She shook her head wistfully."Xow. ' said Spider thinly, "you've

the room, came troin behind the manstanding with the knife in his- hand.I poll the sound Spider Magee swunground. Propped against the door wasthe stooped lig'ure of Joe Loftus.
He was holding a hand to his stomach,and blood was running between hisnerve-taut fingers. His other hand helda gun. and it was waving just a little.

(.'roping from wall to chair, from chairto table, the wounded man. his clothescoaked with blood, moved nearer to theother. Behind him he left a narrow11ail of crimson on the carpet.

A spasm of pain shook his body. Fora moment his eyelids trembled.
That moment was sufficient for SpiderAlagee. It was the sign of weaknessfor which he had been waiting. Hesprang, lithe, as though released by acoiled spring. The knife in his righthand flashed.
Then instinctively the girl acted.Snatching up a bottle from a sidetableshe threw it at Magee's head. Theheavy glass splintered against his thin'face, and she saw -n stream of bloodflow to his shoulder. Then Spider :crumpled over the body of .Toe Loftus, Ihis knife striking against bone.

CANCER RESEARCH.
HOSPITAL DEPARTMENT.SUFFICIENT MONEY RAISED
Sufficient money has been raised bypublic subscription to establish a cancerstatistical research department at theAuckland Public Hospital.
This »aa, stated to he -the outstandingfeature of the annual report of theAuckland Division of the British Kmpire Cancer Campaign Society which
presented at the annual meetingheld at the Town Hall yesterday after-noon.
The appeal for finance was made onEmpire Day, the report stated, and asa result of street collections conductedthroughout the province by local l<odicsand other organisations a not sum ofover £1.500 was raised. The executiveplaced on record its appreciation of theinitiative taken by the president. SirErnest Davis, to whose vigorous leader-ship the success of the campaign waslargely due. The report also expressedthe executive's gratitude for assistancegiven by provincial and metropolitanarea local bodies and to the Ked CrossSociety ill Auckland.
'To provide for the maintenance ofthe new department an annual appealfor funds in, of course, necessary, andthe executive unanimously agreed withthe proposal of the president that theappeal be permanently identified withEmpire Day," the report added. Accord-ingly, it is recommended that the localbodies throughout the province be writ-
Hen to and be asked to allocate EmpireDay each year for a street collectionin aid of the maintenance of the Cancer•Statistical Research department.
"By the inauguration of this depart-ment the Auckland division, notwith-standing the contribution it has madein the past to laboratory activities inother centre*, can now regard itself asa definite entity in the cancer campaignin Xew Zealand. It can look upon thisii«w feature as offering a contributionto the world study of cancer apart fromits value to the work within the Dom-inion."
The main expenditure incurred by thedivision during the year was the annual£.">OO contribution to the laboratory inDtinedin. to which last yeur was addeda share of the expenses of the Physicslaboratory in Christchurch.
The honorary treasurer, Mr. D. F.Mackay, said the expenditure during theyear was £400, while receipts amountedto f 140. It had l>een necessary to re-duce the capital fund, therefore, by £2lio.to make lip the difference. The capitalfund after the deduction, stood at£.T>00.

(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
HAWKRA, Wednesday.
A scheme to inculcate into the mindsof pupils the necessity of care whenusing streets has been introduced intothe Waiiganui Intermediate School bythe principal, Mr. W. E. Fossette. Thescheme, which is similar to that now

Bicvclps were first inspected and theneach pupil had to ride over a temporarypedestrian crossing being used by otherpupil*, give the correct signals, or stop,as the necessity arose, and generallyobserve the rule's of the road. Havingsuccessfully passed the test pupils weregiven a license to ride bv the head-master, which also carried with it acertificate of fitness for the bicycle.
The school has its own, traffic control*,whose duty it is to report pupils who
<■0111 in it breaches of by -laws. These aredealt with by a specially-constitutedcourt of school pupiU and penalties areimposed, «uch as endorsing or suspend-in"- an offender's license. The instruc-tion in road safety is made aa attractiveas possible, combined with a certainamount of humorous element, the funda-mental principle of road safety beingpredominant.
