MODERN BEAUTY SALONS

LUXURY IN MAYFAIR

NEW MAKE-UP SCHEMESThe opinion that English women

wore becoming as "beauty conscious"as the Americans was expressed byMrs. Stanley Storey, of Sydney, whopassed through Auckland on Friday bythe Monterey after a visit to Englandand tho United States.

During tho Coronation season partic-ularly. Mayfair beauty parlors werevery busy, Mrs. Storey said. Duringher stay, she visited tho very latestsalon opened just prior to tho Corona-tion. The white walls were pierced atintervals with star-shaped cut-outs,subtly illuminated, and 111 these weroplaced flagons of perfume and lotions.Tho staircases of white kidskin weropadded and studded with brass stars,while tho waiting room was really aluxurious flower-bordered lounge andpossessed a running fountain.

However full her day might be,tho Mayfair woman always found timefor massage treatments or manicures,Mrs. Storey said. Many women whoentertained a great deal had treatmentsat their own homes often as early as7 o'clock in tho morning.

Tho latest idea in London, and onowhich was proving very popular, wasthat of devising schemes of make-up.Some women thought out "Old Master"schemes for themselves, choosingfamous women such as Lady Hamilton,as portrayed by Romney, and had theirbeautv specialist adapt them to theirown features. This, of course, was mainlydone for special occasions and tho ex-pert had to attend his client lor atleast an hour at her own home beforeshe dressed for the function.

English women had decided againstsun-tanned complexions for the summer.Instead, they were using a make-upthat protected their natural com-plexions, but which was known as "sun-beige," more delicate than sun-tan andmore easily romoved.

Y.W.C.A. ACTIVITIES

SENIOR DEPARTMENTS

A group of the business girls'fraternity spent a most enjoyable campat Holiday House, Blockhouse Bay,revelling in tho out-of-doors, which wasniado possible bj' a fine week-end. Theprogramme was of an informal nature,including a Sunday morning service ofworship, and tramping.

The interest circles met on Tuesdaynight, and included badminton, floralart, conversational French, Indianbasket-making and bridge.

Other interests held last week in-

eluded the meetings of the shamrockclub, tho team being the winners ofthe Y.W.C.A. Indoor Basketball Cupmatch. The tres hon troupe held itsweekly club meeting on the same night,and the weekly dress-making class washeld under tho direction of Mrs. W.Young. Tho good companions met onWednesday, with a good attendance,devoting their energies to final fairpreparations.

GERMAN MAIL SERVICE

REMARKABLE EFFICIENCY

POST BOXES ON EVERY TRAMA visitor to Auckland by the Mon-

terey on Friday was Miss LyndaBarnes, of Sydney, who is returninghomo from a visit to England and theContinent.

Speaking of her visit to the Con-tinent, Miss Barnes said she was mostinterested in Germany, one of thethings that impressed her being theunusual postal arrangements there.Even the rates for airmail postage wereconvenient so that lotters of very lightweight could be sent and paid foraccordingly. Tho postcard, little usedin England or Australia to-day, wasvery important in Germany. Thepeople used it regularly for communica-tions of a quite private and importantnature. Even her bank manager hadasked her to "drop him a postcard"telling him what she required from thebank.

The German system of sending ex-press letters was most efficient, MissBarnes said. For an extra charge of 4dletters would be delivered immediately,even in the middle of the night.Suburban residents were catered for bya post-box at the back of every tram-car. Tho letters were cleared by awaiting postman near tho railwaystation and delivered by him at 10-minute intervals to the railways postalcollector. An extra half-penny stampwas charged for tho use of tho tramcarmail box.

PRESENTATION OF PLAY" PROFESSOR TIM "

SIMPLE COUNTRY FROCKSIrish folk of tho poorer class were

portrayed upon tho stage of tho TownHall concert chamber on Saturdaynight, when the Catholic RepertorySociety presented "Professor Tim."Consequently, the frocking was for themost part very simple, and the settingsplain.

Tho curtain rose first upon a farmkitchen, where the farmer's daughter,Peggy Scalley, played by Miss Pat Win-throp, was ironing. Miss Winthrop'sgreen linen house-frock and floral apronwere attractive as well as appropriate,while her mother, the part ror whichwas taken by Miss Peggi Cruickshank,was the typical Irish farmer's wife in ablack skirt and white blouse, wornwith a voluminous white apron.

In the second act, Miss Cruickshankchanged her kitchen attire for a neatblack costume, with a white blouse andtoning hat, while Miss "Winthrop worea brown tailored coat and hat. # Blackand white checks wore chosen in thisscene by Miss Kathleen Coleman, whoplays jNloll Flanagan, tho old house-keeper. A very startling change wasmade by this character, however, whenPaddy Kennedy, tho old stableman(Dan Flood), arrived home from thefair with a frock for her. This garment,described bv Paddy as "a pillar or fire,is of a flaming orangc-red shade, in afloral design. It was accompanied by ablack hat trimmed with scarlet flowersand black and while feathers

In the last act, Miss Mario Bellamy,as Mrs. Kilroy, wore a black and whitefoulard frock, with a black coat andhat.

MOLYNEUX DREDGING

WORKING PROFIT SHOWNINITIAL RESULTS GRATIFYING

[ntOJI OUR OWN* COUHKSI'OXDKNT]LONDON, July 21

Shareholders of the Molvneux GoldDredging Company, Limited, attendedthe annual meeting to-day in larger11 inn Iters than is often usual at gather-ings of this nature, and appeared wellpleased with the resports made to them.There was applause •when Mr., 11. K.Minns, one of the directors, told themthat working costs, although estimatedm tho company's prospectus at 5d :icubic foot, had average 2..3d, inclusiveof depreciation, repairs and renewalsand that the working profit since opera-tions had begiui in May was £2278 tothe beginning of July. Ho also men-tioned that there would be no need toestimate for depreciation as heavily aswas indicated in the prospectus.

Mr. A. H. Collier, who was re-electedchairman, congratulated the companyon having acquired "a really goodproperty." Sinco the last meeting,there had been a further expenditureon the dredge of £12,503 incurredthrough the delay in launching, andcompletion. This brought the cost ofthe machine, including spare parts, upto £79,558.

The deposit with the local powerboard, said Mr. Collier, now stood at£10.278, or £243 more than last year.The addition represented interest on de-posit with the power board toward thocost of enlarging its hydro-electricpower plant and the amount advancedwas to be offset against electric powerto be consumed by the company. Theitem, therefore, was a substantial assetwhich was earning interest.

The cash position was satisfactory,but during the year tho board con-sidered it advisable to Issue a further20,000 shares at 2s oaph, thereby adding£2OOO to the cash resources of tho com-pany. It would be realised that theboard had to bear in mind the pos-sibility of the dredge not covering ex-penses during tho first few months'working. That happily had not beenthe case. The shares so allotted wereprovided by mutual arrangement fromthe unissued capital which was underoption.

" Dredging operations commenced onMay 3 and we have every reason to besatisfied with results to date," Mr. Col-lier said. " Rarely does a new dredgeearn profits at the commencement ofoperations. We are, therefore, fortunatein having earned profits,from the start,and we look forward with confidence tobetter returns in tlie near future, whentho dredge has passed beyond thepresent area, which has been wellworked by the old dredges in past years,and into the more profitable groundwhich they were unable to bottom."

The company, whose last return wasllloz. for two weeks ended July 31,is operating in an area comprising 19miles of the Molvneux River betweenCromwell and Alexandra (Otago) and625 acres of adjacent flats. It was in-corporated in 1931 in England, wherenearly all tho capital is held. Thenominal capital is £250,000 in 2s shares.

HOTELS SOLD

STAPLES TO LIQUIDATEDISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS

OVER £1,000,000 INVOLVED

Notice lias been issued by J. Staplesand Company, Limited, hotel ownersand investors in brewery interests,Wellington, that the company pro-poses to go into voluntary liquidation.The special resolution, which providesfor the appointment of Mr. G. S. T.Harden, accountant, of Wellington, asliquidator, will be submitted to anextraordinary meeting of shareholdersin Wellington 011 September 1.

The proposed winding-up is the ex-pected outcome of the sale of the com-pany's licensed hotel interests to NewZealand Breweries, Limited, whichnegotiated what is regarded as thebiggest cash transaction ever made inNew Zealand. It is estimated that inthe liquidation shareholders will receivesomething over £1,000,000 for theirpaid capita! of £350,000.

An option to New Zealand Breweries.Limited, to purchase certain licensedhotel properties was ratified by share-holders of Staples and Company at theend of May and it is understood thecash involved in this deal was over£500,000. Included in the propertieswas the sale of the Central Hotel,Wellington, at £45,000.

A holding of 76,000 shares in NewZealand Breweries, Limited, wasowned by Staples and Company at thetime of ratification of the option. Themarket value was approximately£230,000, but since, the New Zealandcompany, to finance its expansion, hasmade an issue of 5-16,135 £1 sharesat a premium of 5s in the proportionof one new share for every two held.It is probable, therefore, that theholding of the Staples Company hasbeen considerably increased. Uponliquidation these holdings will be dis-tributed pro-rata among Staples' share-holders.

The output of butter of the Bay ofPlenty Co-operative Dairy Association,Limited, for the year ended June 140was 2877 tons, compared with 2830tons for the previous season. Thenumber of suppliers decreased by sixto 479. Over 64 per cent of the grad-ing was 94 points and over, thepremium on this representing £2097over the guaranteed price of 12.5625d.

The sum of £202,274 has been ad-vanced against butter-fat supplied, rep-resenting an average payment over allgrades of 11.935d. There is now avail-able £42,303. The directors propose todistribute,this in the payment of 5 percent interest 011 share capital, absorb-ing £9lO, and the balance at the rateof 1.87 d per lb. butter-fat. This willmake the total payment for the season13.805(1 over all grades, and includingcream carting and interest, 14.143 dper lb. The season average in 1935-36was 12.343 d per lb. butter-fat.

Total charges, including repairs anddepreciation, up to f.o.b. were 1.693dper lb. butter-fat. against 1.631 d inthe previous season. Export stockshave been valued at the guaranteedprice, according to grade, and pattedbutter held for local sale has been esti-mated to produce the current marketprice of Is 2d per lb.

The trading department sales were£49,994, compared with £33,036 lastyear. The store account shows a netprofit of ■ £1492 for the year. Thedirectors recommend that this amountshould be credited to reserve account,as in former years.

The retiring directors, Messrs. A. W.Chapman, M. G. Cruickshank and H.Lines, have again been nominated. Noother nominations have been received.

KAITAIA COMPANY'S YEAR

DIVIDEND AND FINAL BONUS

[I!Y TK[,KG It AI'll —OWN. t'OKRKSrOXDKXT]KAITAIA, Saturday

The 36th annual meeting of the Kai-taia Co-operative Dairy Company, heldin Kaitaia, was well attended byshareholders. " The chairman of direc-tors, Mr. C. 13. Michie, presided.

The chairman said the output far ex-ceeded that anticipated, and 72J percent of the company's output hadgraded 94 and over. The net premiumreceived over the guaranteed • price hadbeen £1507. Only 4.4 per cent had beenbelow standard. The company's butterhad graded the highest in the NorthAuckland district, and . the pay-out tosuppliers was the sixth highest in thatarea. A rise in costs was inevitable.

After the report and balance-sheethad been adopted the directors' recom-mendation of u 3 pet- cent dividend onpaid-up shares was adopted, as was alsoa bonus payment of 1.633d, bringingthe whole payment to 13.502d. Thesum of £l5O was transferred to thetrading account reserve and £196 wascarried forward. Mr. W. H. Atkinswas re-appointed auditor.

It was announced that Messrs. H.Parker, J. M. Dawson, J. W. Metcalfeand J. T. Clark had been nominatedfor the two vacancies on the board ofdirectors. A postal ballot is to be held.

Ileplving to a question regarding thefertiliser works that it is proposed toestablish in North Auckland, Mr.Michie said that no definite actionwould be taken by the dairy companyuntil the position had been placed be-fore the shareholders.

The secretary, ilr. L. A. Mcintosh,stated that the company had now tosupply to the Government a return ofthe butter-fat supplied bv each farmer.It appeared that the department wasnot going to be satisfied with returnsin connection with the unemploymentemergency tax, unless substantiated byvouchers. It was necessary for thefarmers to keep proper books. TheGovernment had agreed to allow re-turns to be made up to coincide withthe financial year of the dairy com-pany. and so far as the'Kaitaia com-pany was concerned this was June 30,.so this year the return would be for15 months.

A resolution requesting the Gov-ernment to abolish the unemploymentemergency tax on all wages, salariesand income was carried unanimously.

LAMB MARKET FIRM

MUTTON ALSO IN DEMAND

The market for lambs at Smithfieldlast week was very firm, with improvedprices for heavy-weights, according tothe weekly report of the New ZealandMoat Producers' Board. Wethers we'refirm with a good demand, and eweprices have advanced owing to an im-provement in consumption.

In frozen beef the market for foreswas weaker, with hindquarters un-changed. Chilled hindquarters werefirmer, with fores slightly easier.

Firmer conditions existed for NewZealand porker pigs. Baconers met withgood inquiry, but prices were nominalowing to short spot stocks.

Following are the latest quotationsannounced\v the board, together withthe values ruling at the closo of theprevious week: —

The weekly quotations are based onactual sales of wholesale quantities ofcarcases of mutton or lamb or ofquarters of beef delivered to Smithfieldmarket and/or London stores.

To arrive at the equivalent ex shipvalues one farthing per pound shouldbo deducted from the prices quotedabove. Quotations given represent theaverage for the week, and are notselected linos, but for parcels fairlyrepresentative of the bulk of shipmentsnow 011 offer.

CANTERBURY PRODUCE

SMALL SEEDS MORE ACTIVE

[BY TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION']CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

After some months' exceptionallyquiet business, the smnll a seeds markethas begun this week to be a little moreactive. Business is,yet far from large,but there are signs that the springtrade will develop normally. In generalstocks of small seeds here are lightenough to ensure that any determineddemand will make an upward revisionof price inevitable,-but in the mean-time there is no alteration, as holdersare glad to take what business is offer-ing after the very dull period that hasbeen passed. Certified ryegrass is par-ticularly short and high prices areasked for available supplies, up to 12sGd being mentioned. Cocksfoot' is alsoliable to be short because of the pooryield after dressing. Potatoes arefirmer, mainly because of the better in-quiry from the North Island. The pricehas risen, but there is no great amountof business being done. The halfpennyincrement has gone on to millingwheat and the final increment, anotherhalfpenny, will go on next month.

POWER BOARD WORK

EXTENSIONS IN THE NORTH

OVER 200 NEW CONSUMERS[BY TELEGRAPH—OWN CORRESPONDENT] -

DABGAVILLE, Saturday" It has been slightly disturbing and

yet very encouraging to the board to,have had so many petitions and applica-tions from settlers requiring electricalservices," remarked the engineer, Mr.T. It. Overton, in a special report tothe North Auckland Electric-PowerBoard. " It would be economically un-sound, besides being practically impos-sible, to satisfy all of the petitioners.The safe plan is for the board-to pickout the more payable areas first andthen gradually work into the thinly-populated districts. -

" A canvass of the main route fromKamo to Hikurangi has been carriedout. with the exception of Wilsonvilleand Waro," continued the report, "andthe response has been very good. Twogroups in Hikurangi have been formedand tenders will be invited. Six tendersfor the Mauugatepere-Maunu groupwere received and a contract has beenlet. Stocks of material are coming tohand, with the exception of poles.Difficulty is being experienced in obtain-ing correct information in regard to de-liveries or Australian, supplies."

Authority was given for the chair-man, Mr. J. A. McLean, and the engi-

neer to purchase enough steel for themanufacture of another 550 concretepoles. ,

The report stated that more than200 new consumers had been connected,bringing the total to 957.

An agreement and plan for streetlighting in Hikurangi were submittedby the engineer and ratified.

annual meeting for three years, the lastone having been held in June, 1934,when the officers elected previouslyhad been re-elected en bloc. A meeting •

had been held a week ago, when it hadbeen decided to hold last evening'smeeting.

The union organiser. Mr. T. F. Jolly,who took the chair for the election ofpresident, reported that, following hiscanvass through the district, there werenow 130 financial' members of thebranch. In the past 12 months some4000 new members had joined theunion. Over 1000 of these were in theNorth Island.

Three nominations were received forthe office of president of the branch.One of the candidates withdrew, leav-ing two to go to a ballot. Mr. C. F.Shiplierd was elected. From fournominees for vice-presidents,.. Messrs. R.C. Clark and J. Pollock were elected.

The 12 scats on the committee worefilled without a ballot, with the electionof the following:—Messrs. E. Piggott,M. Need ham, A. E. B. Richardson, J.W. Robinson, K. Hamilton, T. Mor-gan, F. A. Carter, A. Hewitt. N. G.Cameron, E. Mansfield, P. G. Osmondand D. Jamieson.

Five members were nominated asdelegates to the Franklin sub-provin-cial executive of the union. The with-drawal of one and the. lack of aseconder for another avoided anotherballot. Messrs. Shiplierd, Clark andRobinson were then elected unopposed.

SKIER SUFFERS FROM EXPOSURE

A South Island ski club recently holdits annual fancy dross dance. It wasa sharp frosty night, and snow was onthe ground, fho local champion, chosea rather scanty attire, and at suppertime complained that he was in for acold. He was well muffled up for thehomeward journey, but had no hat. He"borrowed" a cap from the cloakroom.The sequel was the receipt of a smallpackage a day or two later from the"borrowee" with a note to the effectthat the cap should be returned in ex-change for the enclosed bottle ofBaxters Lung Preserver.

The tremendous demand for "Baxters"nt the present time indicates not onlythe prevalence of colds, but the implicitfaith of the New Zealand public in theefficncy of this remarkable remedy.

"Baxters" lias proved itself abso-lutely ideal for all coughs, colds, sorethroats, bronchial and chest afflictions.For sore throats always gargle "Bax-ters" before swallowing. "Baxters" hasunique tonic properties also. Chemistsand stores sell the three sizes, Is 6d,2s (3d, and 4s 6d.—Advt.

BACK IN LONDONMR. ARMSTRONG'S TOUR

CONTINENTAL, VISITS

RETURN 'VIA UNITED STATES

[from our own CORRESPONDENT JLONDON, July 21

"I am very glad 1 came. It has beenan education to mo and I am now inthe possession of information which,I am sure, ,will be very valuable to me,and, I hope, to our country," said Mr.H. T, Armstrong, Minister of Labour,when he returned to London from theContinent. After attending the May ses-sion of the League of Nations and theInternational Labour Conference, Mr.Armstrong visited Germany and France.He now proposes to tour the industrialcentres of England, Scotland and Ire-land before sailing for New York onAugust 4. lie plans to spend threeweeks in the United States and to reachNew Zealand on September 20.

"My purpose," said Mr. Armstrong,"is to become thoroughly acquainted.with industries and, incidentally, in-dustrial life,. particularly those whichwe are .developing in New Zealand, andto make comparisons. 1 want to seewhether wo are developing on the rightlines, and I want to gather as much use-ful information as 1 can for the assist-ance of New Zealand industry. 1 wantto pick the best out of the conditionsthat prevail everywhere."

.Conditions of Employment

Mr. Armstrong has visited Italy andRussia, iu addition to France, Switzer-land and Germany, and has acquiredfirst-hand information concerning work-ing conditions. Commenting upon thecomparison between the Continentaland Now Zealand conditions, ho saidthat, on the whole, the New Zealander•was better off than the Continental.Generally / speaking, however, ho hadfound conditions of employment on theContinent very much better than hohad expected.. Reforms, it appeared,had been fairly rapid.

"At one time," he said, "New Zea-land could boast that she led the worldin social reform. To a very large ex-tent we do to-day, but wo have a cer-tain distance to go yet to equal Con-tinental countries in some respects. InGermany, France, and Russia, for in-stance, nearly all the workers enjoyannual holidays on full pay; and notonly'that', there are remarkable facili-ties placed at their disposal for enjoy-ing them, such as cheap railway faresor boat trips to other countries.

"Wages in New Zealand are higher,and, generally speaking, the hours" oflabour are lower. In France the 40-hour we«k is now fairly general,although .riot to the same extent asin New Zealand. Germany did have a40-hour week until it was found thatthere was so much work to be done thatorders could not be fulfilled unlesslonger hours were worked. But it hasbeen stated" that they will get backto the 40-hour week as soon as possible.Although thev have extended the hoursof work beyond 40, they have advancedwages in proportion.

Living Standards Compared"While the general condition of the

Continental -workers is higher than Iexpected, I am convinced that thestandard of living cannot he as highas in New Zealand because I comparedthe wages and prices for necessary com-modities and, generally speaking, theprices of .t-lie necessary commodities areas high as in New Zealand while wagesare lower.

"In Germanv, France and Italy Inoticed that, although the farmers arehighly efficient in many ways, and everyavailable inch of ground is cultivated,even to the hill tops, they have somevery primitive methods. 1 noticed noadvance upon the old-fashioned bullockteams and'the old-time plough.

"One of'the things that struck meas a tragedy, and one that I hope we•will be able to avoid, was the largepercentage of young men in uniformand the number of women working inthe fields. I was particularly surprisedto find in Italy and Germany—l ac-cepted it for granted ineverybody 'welcomed foreign visitors,and was extremely courteous andhelpful.

Attitude Toward War"Personally, I do not think that

either Italy'or Germany wants warwith anybody. If they do, then I can-not imagine any two countries uponwhich war would have a more injuriouseffect. It is so necessary for them tobe at work all the time to keep upproduction.

"I had been told before I went toGermany that I would only bo allowedto see nrhat they would allow me to,'but one ot their first questions was:What did ! want to see? I saw variousthings, including the labour camps.It seemed to me that they mean sixmonths' extension of military service.The people do six months' manuallabour for the State, and the idea isto abolish class and to get them tounderstand what the labourer has todo and put up with. It is claimed thatthis helps, to build the people up andbroaden their outlook. It may be agood idea, but there seemed to be afair amount -of drill attached to it.*

Other New Zealanders Met

In Berlin Mr. Armstrong said thathe divided his time between formalvisits to /factories and social institu-tions and mixing informally with thepeople with other visitors. At lots-dam. where are the palaces of theformer Kaisers, he met a family ofAuckland people, and was told by anattendant that a party of 12 NewZealanders had been there the day be-fore. Comparing impressions with otherforeign visitors, Mr. Armstrong foundthat there was general agreement thatthe German people appeared to be wellcontent. ' _

Before returning to London, Air.Armstrong spent a few days in Paris,at the International Exhibition, bealso visited a number of factories.

Mrs Armstrong, who accompaniedher husband to Geneva, has been suf-fering from eye trouble and wasobliged to undergo three weeks' treat-ment at Zurich, from which she bene-fited considerably.

FIFTY YEARS AGO

GUM-DIGGING IN PROVINCE

There were 10,000 men in the Auck-land Province making a livelihood bydigging gum half a century ago. Thefollowing is from the New ZealandHerald of„ August 9. 1887:—

"Many of our readers are not awarethat a large number of men are em-ployed at gum-digging within easy dis-tance of the city, travelling every morn-ing and evening to and from

_

theirwork. The ground dug over is allaround Birkenhead, the sugar worksand up toward Kauri Point. The men

fo over from town in phe Birkenheadoat in the morning and return in the

evening. They are composed in someproportion of labouring men and of theclass who usually take to gum-digging,but a good many are those who navebeen thrown out of employment by thedepression in business. Latterly, as manyas 130 men have gone over every day.They make from 2s to Gs a day, andperhaps sometimes a little over thelatter sum. There is no doubt that thisis a great assistance to Auckland atthe present time, and it is rather extra-ordinary that the land so close to thecity as Birkenhead should now for thelirst time bo thoroughly dug over,"-

COUNCIL REFORMyiCTOBIAN PROPOSALreduction of powbrs '

OVER-RIDING VETO ON BILLS[from our own* correspondent]

MELBOURNE, July 30With unexpected ease the bill to

reform the Legislative Council of.Vjc .

toria has been passed by the Legis-lative Assembly. Next week the Legis-lative Council will consider the billand determine whether it is preparedto surrender any of its rights.

The main aim of the bill is to re-duce the power of the Council to de-feat or delay bills' which have beenpassed by the Legislative Assembly andparticularly the policy bills of Govern-ments. The Premier, Mr. A. A. Dun-stan, has complained that the Councilhas refused to pass several bills on thepassage of which the Ministry was de-pendent for raising certain revenues,particularly the proposed share trans-fer tax.

A similar Reform Bill was promotedlast year, but, after being passed hythe Assembly, it failed to secure therequisite statutory majority in theCouncil—lß votes in a House of &

members—although it was given amajority of the votes cast. In themeantime, half the members of theCouncd have had to recontest theirseats, and the outcome has been toencourage the Ministry to believe thatit may command a statutory majorityin the council this year. ,5.

Main Principle of MeasureThe main principle of the Reform

Bill is that if a bill, passed by theAssembly, is rejected by the Councilan election for the Assembly can beheld, and if the hill is again passedby the new Assembly it will automati-cally become law.

The Legislative Assembly agreed tothe second reading with only threedissentient votes. Leader 0!the Opposition, Sir • Stanley. Argyle,voted for the second reading, but hesought to amend the bill in severalimportant respects in the committeestages. However, Mr. Dunstan treatedamendments as hostile, and the bilJwas passed without material alteration.The voting on the third reading was4] votes to nine.

Mr. Dunstan has been greatly en-couraged by this result and has re-buked the Opposition for its lack ofpolicy on the bill. "It is possible todefine the attitude of those three mem-bers of the United Australia Partywho in a House of 65 were the onlyopponents of the second reading of thebill," he said.'-"They logically votedalso against the third reading. Theydo not blow hot and cold. They arethe consistent champions of ultra-conservatism.

Opposition Suggestions"But they are only three members

of the party. When the attitude of theremainder is considered the UnitedAustralia Party view of the bill isamazing. Some members voted for thesecond reading and against the thirdreading; some espoused the principleof a joint sitting of both Houses forsettling a deadlock instead of the prin-ciple laid down in the bill; othersfavoured a referendum as against adissolution of the Assembly; andothers favoured the principle of thebill and opposed a referendum strongly.

"The salient feature of the debate,"added Mr. Dunstan, "was that 41member:., including 10 members of theUnited Australia Party', voted infavour of the third reading and_ onlynine, all being members of the UnitedAustralia Party, against. Because ofthose figures it will be difficult for theOpposition to repeat its cry that theMinistry intends to abolish the Legis-lative Council."

COMMENT ON FORMGREAT ADMIRAL SCORES

NERVIE'S LAST UNLUCKY

AIDE DE CAMP IMPRESSES

[by TELEGRAPH OWN correspondent]' CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

Great Admiral scored a very narrowvictory in the Introductory Handicap,niul had to servive a protest becauso hehad paced at one stage of tlie race.Mabel Chimes, Gov Hugo and Kuiniwent away nicely, while Polly Pan be-gan smartly only to break badly whenshe ran wide at the turn going out oftho straight. With half tho journeycovered Lady Sonoma was in commandfrom Reward, Great Admiral, Mataungaand Sister Mary, with Golden Eagle along way back. As tho homo stretch wasentered Lady Sonoma and Great Ad-miral were showing tho way to SisterMary and Mataunga, with Golden Eagleiu sixth position. Lady Sonoma andGreat Admiral settled down to a hardbattle, the latter scoring narrowly.Golden Eagle, who finished at a greatrate, was a good third, ahead ofMataunga, Sister Mary anu Guy Hugo.Great Admiral owed his win to a veryquick beginning, and he was materiallyassisted by the breaking of otherhorses.

Advance Handicap MishapsThe Advance Handicap was spoiled

by accidents. Aircraft fell before cover-ing a furlong and at the end of a mileFull Hand and Harlequin became in-volved in a mix-up, and neither con-tinued in the race. With half a milecovered Esplendor joined Credit Fundsin tho lead, just ahead of Sky Wink,Full Hand, Harlequin and Aido deCamp. The last-named made a fast moveat the mile post, while Ginger Jackalso came from tho rear. Aide de Campwas never troubled in the run to thepost and won very easily from SkyWink, who had to be driven out tobeat Ginger Jack. Esplendor and Wil-liam Tell were next. Aido de Campmade an exhibition of the field andproved himself a high-grade pacer,although the accidents to Aircraft andHarlequin probably made his taskeasier. Sky Wink went his best race forsome time. Ginger Jack, badly placedin tho early stages, covered extraground and did well to gain third.

The August Handicap was full of in-terest from start to finish and, afteran outstanding performance, Reporterfairly defeated a very select field. LuckyJack and Bingen Palm lost a lot ofground at the start and Gunfire shotaway in the lead from Llewellyn'sPride, Pocks Ahead, Pot Luck and Gal-lant Knight, which was tho order atthe end of half a mile. With a roundcovered Graham Direct put in a sensa-tional run from the rear of the fieldand in another two furlongs lie wassecond, behind Gunfire, with Llewel-lyn's Pride, Reporter, Gallant Knight,Pot Luck, Rocks Ahead and Glenrossiofollowing. Reporter made a forwardmove three furlongs from home andhalfway down the straight he tackledGunfire. Although Reporter was doinghis best at the finish, ho won like areally good racehorse. It was his fourthwin in nis last five starts. Rocks Aheadwas handily placed all the way andcame fast over the last furlong to gainsecond. Pot Luck finished well for third,while Gallant Knight and King's War-rior did best.of the remainder. KingsWarrior did not have any the best ofthe running and ho may win a raceat the meeting. Graham Direct fadedafter his brilliant burst, but that wasonly to be expected. Lucky Jack lostground at the start and was neverdangerous.

Game Finishing EffortBy sheer determination Parisienne

won the Qiteen Mary Handicap, forover the last half-mile she conceded theleaders a good start, and it was onlyin tho straight that she wore downKing's Plav. U. Scott lost a lot ofground at the start, but before halta milo had been covered he was in ahandy position. U. Scott ran to thefront at the end of five furlongs, withIronside, Encounter and Red Flush fol-lowing. Parisienne and King s 1 laybeing well back. Four furlongs fromhome King's Play made a forward moveand joined U. Scott in tho lead, whileParisienne also moved up. U. Scott tiredat the straight entrance and Parisienneat once tackled King's Play. Jhestruggle was hard, but Parisienne fin-ished straight and true and narrowlydefeated King's Play. Encounter wasthird, followed by Sea Gift Jind HappyKnight. Parisienne finished like a littlechampion and is one of the gamesthorses racing. King's Play lost nofriends by his display and he may dobettor before the meeting is over. U.Scott was unlucky in losing ground attho start and his fast run to leadand the task of pacemaking did notassist him. ..

The Stewards' Handicap provided anexciting finish between Kings "Guard,Nicoya and Bittersweet, King s Guardscoring narrowly, although he wentpast the post galloping. Bittersweetand Flotsam were quickest to begin,

but both broke after covering a fur-Ion" Bittersweet settled down quicklyand* led down the back froin .Kaclaim,Flotsam, King's Guard and I' jfa it l

half the journey covered King s buaiuwas leading from Fifa, Bittersweet,

Raclaim and Isorman I' ox, u luloNicoya was making up ground. Nicoyamoved up to King's Guard two fur-longs from home, but tho latter drewout

in the straight. Fifty yards fiomthe post King's Guard broke andBittersweet just failed to reach him.Kinc's Guard was racing over Insfavourite distance, but was gettingvery tired at the finish.

An End-to-end WinPlav Oa began very smartly in tho

Tlio winner, Supertax, returned adividend of more than a third of acentury, and Worthy Light paid nearlya. score for a place Supertax, QueenAuthor, Hollo and De Soto were thepacemakers for the greater part of theourney, and Supertax easily held Insown to win comfortably.

CLARION CALL BRILLIANT[by telegraph—OWN correspondent]

CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

Wintry conditions prevailed at Ric-carton to-day, and owing to overnightrain the outside of the course properwas not opened for galloping, the in-side of tho trial grass being used. Thegoing was holding in places, and fewof the h6rses who ran along were out tomake time.

The best half-mile of tho morningwas credited to Trench Fight, whosprinted along the back in 49 3-ss.There were only a few sprints alongthis stretch, and he had the assistanceof a strong wind, which was againsthorses who covered the same distanceto finish at tho winning post. The timewas seconds better than any other over-half a mile, but it was difficult tosecure a good comparison. Nevertheless,the gallop again showed Trench Fightto be in great order, and his presence

in the Winter Cup field will lend muchinterest to the race.

Rockingham and Liane took 54 2-5sfor half a mile, and Miracle followed in51 3-ss. Others timed over tho homehalf-mile were Dictate, 54 3-ss; Settle-ment and Lovo Affair, 51 4-ss; PolRoger and Clubman, 54 3-ss; Bay Dukeand Amclita, 535.

Royal Limond and Streamline covereda mile in 1.51 1-5, and Elegy recorded1.50 2-5.

Golden Lap (T. Boyle) gave a mostattractivo display over six hurdles. Hohas made marked improvement andshould do well next week.

The Surgeon (F. Smith) and Torea-dor (H. Anderton) were to have alsojumped six hurdles, but Toreadorcrashed at tho fifth fence and appearedto injure himself. Tho Surgeon com-pleted his work safely, but his exhibi-tion was not very impressive.

Jolly Beggar (11. Bealo) and ClarionCall (A. Jenkins) were companions oversix hurdles. They kept practicallyabreast throughout, but Clarion Callshowed moro brilliance in clearing hisfences. They will both carry strong sup-port in tho Grand National Hurdles.

Monastic (N. Trillo) and Corowa(Bovlo) went over five hurdles satisfac-torily. Corowa will not start until thosecond day, when ho will be ridden byH. Turner.

Ethiop (W. McDowell) was respon-sible for a much better showing thanJohn Charles (A. Lord) over fourhurdles, and finished in front.

Lycidas Jumps CountryLycidas (W. Kitto) and Macailfem

(E. Jennings) negotiated a round of thoinsido schooling country. Neither wasimpressive, but the latter for once gotround without mishap, although he andhis rider nearly parted company 011 twooccasions.

Although tho main steeplechasocourse was not open for general use,special permission was granted to IrishComet (J. Fergus) and Brigadoro (C.Thomson) to school, as neither had hadan opportunity of jumping over tho bigfences. The task was delayed owing tothe late arrival of tho riders from theNorth Island. Track-watchers had everyreason to bp pleased with the wait, as*both horses gave a display seldom sconon tho eve of a National meeting. Theystarted off by jumping Cutts' and, with-out any semblance of a mistake on thepart of either, completed a circuit bya bold effort over Cutts' again. Briga-doro . attracted attention by his excel-lent jumping, although it showedmoro exertion than that of Irish.Gomet,who is undoubtedly a remarkably clever,fencer. Both horses are sure to carrystrong support 011 Tuesday, but thosewho had the privilege of watching thotwo in action to-day will bo preparedto see Irish Comet fare tho better withcolours up.

IMPROVED CONDITIONSIRISH COMET WELL FANCIED

[BV TELEdKAI'H—OWX COUUKSI'ONPKNT]CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

Conditions wore much improved atRiccarton to-day and the tracks wereback to normal. There was a littlesprinting, mostly by Into arrivals, buta largo number of horses did not putin an appearance. The weather appearsto have taken a definite turn for thobetter and with tho prospect of a suc-cession of frosts there is every hopethat tho Canterbury Jockey Club willbe favoured with favourable conditionsfor tho Grand National Meeting.

There has always been a general im-pression that to be a good jumper anda successful steeplechaser a. horseshould have plenty of size, but thosetraekwatchers who were fortunateenough to witness Irish Comet in actionyesterday left convinced that a goodlittle horse is quite capable of master-ing the stiff Riccarton fences. Therewas a marked difference in sizo be-tween Irish Comet and Brigadoro andas they went to each fence abreastwith Brigadoro on the inside the littloAuck landor was almost lost to view.Brigadoro appeared to jump the bolderof tho pair and to be the fifst to crosseacli obstacle, but Irish Comot waswith him on landing and probably couldhave gone away from him in a fewstrides if required. Irish Comet's suc-cesses at Ellorslie in June were im-pressive and he is solidly fancied forthe Grand National Steeplechase.

Some doubt exists whether Witio willrun in the Winter Cup and in liisabsence L. J. Ellis will probably rideDavolo.

WANGANUI TRACKINTERESTING GALLOPS

COURTCRAFT GOES SOUNDLY

MILE WITH FRANCIS DRAKE[from our own correspondent]

WANGANUI, SaturdaySome interesting gallops were exe-

cuted at Wanganui tracks this morn-ing. The weather was fine, and, al-though there was a keen wind, theNo. 1 grass track was holding aftersteady rain during the night.

Mr. G. M. Currie came in from hisKoatanui Stud to see tho members ofhis team sent along, and he was ac-companied by the stud-groom, J. Low,who displayed particular interest inRelative, the filly whom he reared onthe bottle when the darn, Eulogy, dieda few hours after foaling. Mr. W. H.Gaisford, owner of Courtcraft, alsocanie through from Dannevirke.

The Posterity—Homage filly Homilyand the Limond —Miss Thespian coltRehearsal were to have gone three fur-longs together, but tho filly got awayjust after passing the half-mile andwas several lengths ahead when thecolt set off. On the turn into thestraight Homily ran right out fromtho inside rail to tho outside of thotrack, and Rehearsal, keeping to thoshorter route, made up a good deal ofhis leeway. Straightened up, Homilycame on to register 40s for the threefurlongs. Both juveniles hit out welland they are well forward. Homily mayrace at "the Rand wick Spring Meeting.

Icing and RelativeIcing finished slightly in front of

Relative at the end of seven furlongsin 1.32. They ran the first four fur-longs in 51s, and Icing's display wasvery satisfactory.

Courtcraft and Francis Drake weresent along over a mile and they fin-ished together in 1.48, the last sevenfurlongs in 1.35 1-5. Courtcraft is ingreat heart and was so full of lifethat he proved a handful for his lightrider. Francis Drake, although notquite so taking to the eye, gallopedresolutely and appeared to have asmuch in reserve as his companion. Thedisplay would no doubt encourage Mr.Gaisford to carry on with plans fora spring campaign in Australia withCourtcraft. who figures in the Derbiesand the Melbourne Cup.

Entail (W. Ilayner) was associatedwith Imposture (F. Latham) overseven furlongs in 1.34. They weregoing well within themselves all theway and Entail appears to be gettingback to his form.

Scarf Dance and Aiwai covered sixfurlongs in 1.20 3-5, the half-mile in525. Both three-year-olds are well for-ward.

Fabric and Minga, the other juve-niles in Rayner's stable, slipped oyerthree furlongs in 38s, the pair beingwell out and finishing together with-out being extended. Fabric is the fillyby Limond from Veil, and Minga isby Limond from Motley. These young-sters are developing nicely.

Team For AustraliaThe Beau Pere —Adorable gelding

Amigo and the Beau Pere—Dignifiedfilly belonging to Mr. F. Bristol slippedover two furlongs in a tick over 265.Baron Bold stood on tlie mark withAmatory and ran two furlongs in afraction over 275. Airing was notbustled to run five furlongs in 1.7.

L. G. Butler gave Captain Treville,All Spirit, a newcomer to his .stable,and the Grand Knight—Civility mareuseful work. No name has yet beengranted the Civility mare, although itis expected that she will race as Gen-teel .

Although no announcement has yetbeen made regarding the projected jvisit to Australia, it is not unlikelythat F. Davis will leave about theend of the present month with a teamof four, probably comprising Court-craft, Francis Drake, Aiwai andHomily. The chances are that theJewel "of Asia colt, to race as Coro-nation, may not be considered forwardenough to take across, as he is stillgrowing.

RACING IN ENGLAND

.YEARLING PURCHASES

GOLDEN HAIR COLT PLEASES[from our own correspondent]

LONDON, July 21The Sandown Park two-days meet-

ing provided not only the thrill of theEclipse Stakes, with its unexpected de-feat of Lord Astor's Rbodes Scholarby Mr. W. Woodward's Boswcll, butit also was possible for the vast crowdsto seo the Hon. Dorothy Pagct's15,000 guineas Golden Hair colt runin public for the first time in theNational Breeders' Produce Stakes,the season's richest prize for two-year-olds. The price given for thecolt was the highest ever paidl atauction for a yearling.

The Golden Hair colt did not win,but the race resulted in another vic-tory for the Newmarket stable of Cap-tain C. Boyd Rochfort, the winnerproving to bo Sir H. de Trafford's Fair-wav—Derk's Double colt Portmarnock,with the Aga Khan's Tahir second andthe Golden Hair colt, by Fairway,third. The Golden Hair colt was quicklyinto his stride in front of Madrina,Portmarnock and Buckwood. _ Port-marnock joined the Golden Hair coltat half-way, the pair being clear ofBuckwood, Tahir and Qainly. Port-marnock drew out at the. distance,where Tahir improved and took secondplace but could make no impressionon Portmarnock, who won by one anda-half lengths, with the same distancedividing second and third.

The success of Portmarnock com-pleted an important Sandown doublefor Captain Boyd RochfOrfc, Boswellhaving won the Eclipse Stakes the pre-vious afternoon. P. Bcasley was asso-ciated with each victory. P6rtraarnockhad ruii at Ascot, favourite for theNew Stakes, but ho was not theresuccessful- Ho is considered one of thebest juveniles of the season.

It is just possible that Miss Paget scolt would have done bettor had notheel-bug, contracted shortly beforeAscot, retarded his preparation. Hoconsequently did not carry tho muscloor the hard-trained appearance of hisstable companions, IVthir and FarWest. Ho also sweated more profuselythan either after tho rnccj ovidenco ofhis more backward state. Experts re-gard him as a juenviV possessing im-mense possibilities. Ho is a handsome,long-striding bay, showing a lot ofwhite, including three white socks anda pronounced blaze. He ran very well.

Miss Paget registered her first winthis season at Linsfield recently witha filly called Radiant, by Biandfordfrom Resplendent. Radiant scored aconvincing victory in the Great FoalPlate on this her first appearanco ona racecourse, and sho produced a fineturn of speed as the race progressed.As a yearling she cost 11.500 guineas.Radiant is trained by F. Butters atNewmarket.

Miss Paget had a disappointing saleat Newmarket in mid-July. On one clay17 of her horses in training, many ofwhiclifc.she had paid high prices for.realised only 2015 guineas. Before thatsho had bought Bannlaw, a mareby Son-in-Law—Banniere, for 1450guineas.

The stallion Appello, sold in conse-quence of several shareholders _in thecompany owning him having given upkeeping bloodstock, was bought by Mr.R C. Irving for SOOO guineas. In con-trast. another stallion, Diomcdes, oncea high-class sprinter, and sire of manvwinners, was bought by Mr. J. B. Joelfor only 200 guineas.

MALA REAPPEARSVICTORY AS SPRINTER ,

FIRST RUN SINCE NOVEMBER

SILVER STANDARD RUNS THIRD

[from ottb owx cobrespondent]£ SYDNEY, August 2

Having his first race since the Mel-bourne Cup meeting last November, theNew Zealander Mala made a successfulreappearance when hp won the Flying J (

Handicap at the Victoria Park BankHoliday races yesterday. Mala had hadhis last start at two miles, hut he held 7, -

a winning chance all through the sixand a-half furlongs event yesterday andhad the race in his keeping a furlong

,

from home. ' 1It was a triumph for H. E. Russell v

to win first up with Mala and M. Mc-Carten rode the four-year-old to per- , : ~fection. Naturally Mala can bo improveda great deal, but he defeated a usefulfield yesterday, including Buzalong andSilver Standard. Mala actually was .<*_

one of the first to begin hnd sprintedwell, as is,generally the custom with ■*

a fresh horse. He was in front a furlongfrom home and then was inclined to -

loaf. However, McCarten kept his mind ~

on his job, and he rail out a comfort-able winner.

Mala was always at a very short priceand little money was won over him by >-

the stable. So far no move has beenmade for him in any of the spring races,but speculators have decided on the -

Metropolitan.Tour Hard Races

While Mala monopolised the attention ,

of the majority, Silver Standard's third iwas meritorious. Silver Standard was

„ ■just as nippy as Mala and for a horsewho had four hard races last spring,

_

from the Epsom Handicap to the Mel- .

bourne Cup, he has come back verywell. He had an outing at Rosehill last ~

week. '

Deputy Ruler was supported to beat "

Mala, but could not fill a place,' finish- ■ ■ing just behind Silver Standard. Deputy ,Ruler is still able to gallop, well,although he is not as good as of yore. U

Old Rowley and the Siegfried five- -

year-old Maestro were other spring can-didates to finish behind Mala. Old Row-ley is well forward as a! winner during Jthe winter and is a plodding stayer.-3,Naturally he was not sighted over sixfurlongs, but the race should sharpen [

him up. %

Sturdy GalloperAero King won his second race in

Sydney in the J. White Handicap and J- j.is being discussed as a Derby colt. Thehalf-brother to Capris is useful,.will have to improve by many degrees-*to be included among the possible oppo- "

nents of Ajax, Lynch Law and com- ."

pany. He is a hardy galloper and de- -

feated a sturdy filly in Welcome, who.;,was conceding him 101b., but he has along way to go. For all that, the Auck- ' **»«

lander, Mr. C. M. Emanuel, has a coltwho should sin more races in Sydney.

St. Constant, who gave great promsiein the spring in-the good two-year-oldraces, was supported for a fortune in.a mile maiden plate at weight-for-age .

at Moorefield. He is owned by Mr. A. JE. Cooper, who has high hopes of Talk-ing returning some or all of his purr '

chase price of £19,000 this year. How-ever, St. Constant was well beaten by"G. Price's charge, Hirai, who has ; had -

several races, and is much more? sea-soned. Third place was filled by!Rebel AChief, a likely four-year-old by Chief --

Ruler from Lady Pym. Rebel Chief hasnot had a great deal of racing.

Peter Pan's half-brother Brazilian;was an expensive failure at Moorefield. "

He had not raced for nearly 12 months,"but had had a good deal of track-work. He was not well behaved at the>

start and was in a hopeless position inthe first furlong. He may take some,racing before he can be backed with -

any confidence, although he looks much,.improved. r#

License WithheldThe list of licences issued by the Aus-

tralian Jockey Club over the week-endhas aroused-U good deal of comment.'The action of the club in withholdingJ. T. Jamieson's No. 1 licence, whicngives the right to train at Randwick,has been severely criticised.

Three prominent jockeys, K. Cook,_

J. Coutts and D. Webb, did not have-their licences renewed, and there was"no official explanation. The riders con-*cerned say they are at a loss and the-officials are silent. it.

One of the leading bookmakers, Mr.W. C. Alldritt, together with R. Cotter ■

and A. Sing, was also de-registered, < .but this was automatic. Recently they,were convicted- for offences under the;Racecourse Betting Taxation Act,*breaches which automatically cancelled.tlicir licences. A clause in the regula-,tions covering the issue of bookmakers'licences made this quite clear. It is ,

possible that they will be standing downfor several months. In the case of All-dritt, there is much sympathy, for heis 74 and has had a great record in the '

paddock without one black mark. .

REVISING OTTAWA PACTS

Important reservations should bemade in reading the report fromCapetown that "the Imperial Con-ference decided that the economicring of the Empire should be dis-carded in favour of freer inter-national trade," and especially offreer trade with the United States.When he lands at Auckland onThursday, Mr. Nash should be ableto throw a flood of light on theCapetown suggestion. Present infor-mation suggests, however, that it ismuch too sweeping. In the firstplace, to describe the trade systemestablished at Ottawa as an Im-perial "economic ring" is to acceptthe view of it spread by enviousforeign propagandists. The Ottawaprinciple was not one of exclusion orrestriction, but of expansion throughreciprocity, and has worked outaccording to its beneficent intention.By increasing trade and prosperitywithin the Empire, Ottawa hasexerted a most important—perhapsthe most important—influence onthe growth of international trade.That has been possible because theEmpire, far from following anexclusive policy, represents thelargest low-tariff area in the world.Such high-tariff walls as havebeen erected, around Australia andCanada, owe their existence todomestic policies having nothing todo with Ottawa. It is therefore veryunlikely that the Ottawa system willbe "discarded," although it is cer-tain to be "modified," the wordused in the second sentence of theCapetown report. Nevertheless itcan be confidently anticipated thatthe essential principle will remainunchanged—the principle of recipro-city expressed through tariff prefer-ences applying within the Empire.That does not prevent, and has notprevented, units of the Empiremaking special trade pacts withforeign countries, as is proved bythe score or more Runciman agree-ments, or by Australia's bargainwith Japan, Canada's with theUnited States, and South Africa'swith Germany.

The main modification of theOttawa policy has already beenannounced and accepted. At Ottawain 1932 and for several years there-after, Britain chose to regard theDominions collectively and to makeidentical trade terms with each.Now she is prepared to deal witheach individually and, indeed, hasalready concluded a separate agree-ment with Canada which, withcertain amendments, extends theOttawa agreement until August 20,1940. There is the evidence of thereplacement of the Ottawa grouppact by bilateral treaties, of whichthe Capetown report speaks, butthere also is the evidence thatBritain intends to continue to applythe vital principles of reciprocityand Empire preference. None of theother Dominions has yet arrangeda renewal of the Ottawa pacts withBritain, which will have run theirfull course on August 20. They will,however, remain in force in defaultof denunciation at six months' noticeby the parties. The stage to whichMr. Nash has brought negotiationson behalf of New Zealand is notknown, but it is reported thatBritain and Australia have agreedto leave the business over until nextyear, allowing the Ottawa terms tooperate in the meanwhile. Apartfrom Canada, therefore, Britain canenter negotiations for freer tradewith the United States, the Oslogroup of nations, or any other pro-ponents, with comparatively freehands. So far as Canada is con-cerned, moreover, Mr. MackenzieKing has already undertaken torevise his pact with Britain in con-formity with any Anglo-Americanagreement that may be reached.The active policy being pursued bythe American Secretary of State,Mr. Cordell Hull,, toward loweringtrade barriers is well known. Hencethe way to economic rapprochementacross the Atlantic seems more opento-day than at any other time forwell over a generation. Britain hasstrong political as well as economicmotives for embracing a rare oppor-tunity.

When all that is said, the factremains that it is going to be ex-tremely difficult to discover the basisfor a trade agreement. The Cape-town report says sacrifices by theDominions will be necessary. Thatis because the United States looksto Britain to provide an enlargedmarket chiefly for American primaryproducts, which must compete withDominion exports. Britain will thinklong before she makes such anagreement. In the first place con-tinuity of supply from America inwartime would be uncertain, owingto the effect of her neutrality laws.Defensive economics suggests avoid-ing reliance on such a source of sup-plies in favour of the Dominions.When it comes to a question of pureeconomics, Britain must ask herselfwhether she can impose sacrifices onthe Empire, which absorbs 48 percent of her exports and relies on herfinancial and shipping services, infavour of the United States, whichtakes only 6 per cent of her exportsand competes with her on thefiercest terms in finance and ship-ping. Mr. Savage has alreadystated very definitely and em-phatically his Government's attitudeto any bargain sacrificing thisDominion's interests. It is true thatthe Imperial Conference formallyendorsed the policy of economicappeasement through freer trade,but such an arrangement cannotbe one-sided. The fact is that, ifAmerica wants an agreement withBritain that prejudices the Domin-ions in the British market, she mustbe prepared to grant them com-pensating advantages in the Ameri-can market. Mr. Cordell Hull mayfind it difficult to induce Americanfarmers to accept the proviso, butonly on that reciprocal basis does itseem possible for the Empire to dobusiness with the [United /States,

FEWER LOCAL BODIES

On general principles, the Minis-ter of Internal Affairs has a goodcase for his scheme to amalgamatelocal bodies, but the proposal he hasput forward for a "Bay of PlentyCounty," comprehending the wholeof a large territory now variouslyadministered, should be examinedcautiously. How extensive the newterritory would be is seen when itscomponent districts, now adminis-tratively distinct, are named. Theywould be the present Whakataneand Opotiki counties, Whakataneand Opotiki hospital districts, Bayof Plenty electric-power district,Waiotahi drainage district, and Kai-tuna river district, together withalmost, the whole of Whakataneharbour district and portions ofTauranga and Rotorua counties,Tauranga harbour district, Taurangaelectric-power district, Taurangahospital district, and East Caperabbit district. It is fairly obviousthat, by the merging of some ofthese administrative units, the Min-ister's objective of a stronger staffat a lower total cost could beachieved, and it is theoreticallypossible that parochial interestswould tend less to influence generalpolicy. But it is not clear that thesegains would be so real and great asto offset difficulties of local over-sight that might be multiplied. Theproposed county would be verylarge, and although it might advan-tageously be formed with a view tocommunity of interest, in the separa-tion of coastal from distant inlandareas, it would have to overcomelack of such interest in the newly-associated coastal areas. The localbodies concerned should give thematter close attention, withoutprejudice, before expressing theiropinions.

OIL IN NEW ZEALAND

Public opinion will approve Mr.Webb's vigorously expressed declar-ation of the Government's intentionto prosecute the search for oil inNew Zealand. The advantages of adomestic supply from the economic,political or defensive aspects needno emphasis. Wisely directed Stateexpenditure in the quest for oil istherefore amply justified. In thepast prospecting has been leftalmost entirely in private hands andit may not be without significancethat the Minister of Mines chose tomake his statement in Taranaki, onedistrict in which the presence of oilhas been well proved even if onlyon a small scale up to the present.Mr. Webb exhorted existing pros-pecting companies to use the utmostenergy supplemented by scientificresources in prosecuting theirsearch. The alternative was theState's assumption of their rights,a warning that will receive generalendorsement. With oil as with gold,the Government could not tolerateprivate interests "holding downrights to the detriment of thepeople." The companies must use orlose them. At this stage, however,Mr. Webb marred his statement bya crippling inconsistency. While urg-ing the companies to use expedition,he declared that the oil, when dis-covered, would be nationalised. Thecompanies could do the spade work,but the crop would belong to theState. The Minister will not giveencouragement and obtain the re-sults he and the whole country wantby such a policy. The prospectormust be assured of an adequatereward to compensate him for hisenterprise, the capital he investsand the special risk he accepts.Probably Mr. Webb intends that heshall be rewarded, but his statementleaves a very different impression,one calculated ti block the veryenterprise the Minister obviouslywishes to promote.

SINO-JAPANESE RELATIONS

It is interesting to learn thatJapan's Foreign Minister, speakingin the Diet, has said that "armedaction will not solve the problem"of Sino-Japanese relations. If Japanputs this excellent principle intopractice, even the wider problem ofthe Orient will be brought withinpossibility of early and lastingsettlement. In uttering his thesis,however, Mr. Hirota seriously quali-fies it with statements seeminglymeant to justify what Japan hasdone in occupying Peking andTientsin, in making extensive de-mands on'China, and in providingan additional vote of £24,000,000 forthe North Chinese expedition. Hisclaim that not all the Chinese enter-tain anti-Japanese sentiments hasless truth than it had before Japan'sNorth China advance. Another quali-fication he offers is the need to curbthe activity of Communists in China,an old demand to which the ChineseGovernment has replied by showingin detail what has been done tocheck Communism, what is beingdone, and what the Government isprepared to do. Altogether, ChiangKai-shek has given convincing proofof his earnestness in dealing withCommunism. The news that he isorganising a War Cabinet inclusiveof Communists and members of a"Popular Front" comes, signifi-cantly, from Peking, whence nocommunication can now emanatesave under Japanese direction ; it issuspect as part of Japanese propa-ganda designed to justify the NorthChina campaign. Mr. Hirota rightlysays that China needs somethingfrom Japan and Japan needs some-thing from China. This has thesound of wise and practical inter-national policy, but its value isdestroyed by the aggressive deedscommitted on Chinese territory byJapanese troops. So is it with Mr.Hirota's expression of the opinionthat Japan must deal sympathetic-ally with Nanking's in anysettlement in North China: presum-ably those claims have at their headone to enjoy sovereignty there, butwill the Japanese Foreign Ministerview sympathetically a request forthe withdrawal of Japan's invadingtroops? Perhaps the military andnaval elements in the Japanese Gov-ernment will not allow his fair wordsto be more than fair word».;

NOTES AND COMMENTS

GOOD FILMS APPRECIATED"I have heard it said that if films

were too good they would not be ap-preciated," said Lord Tyrrell, presidentof the British Board of Film Censors,in a recent speech. "Whether that wasso or not in the past, I do not know,but I do know that good films now-adays arc appreciated by all sorts andconditions of men and women. Filmsbased on the classics, great works ofliterature and the drama are producedto-day with the assured knowledge thatthey will meet with success. In manycases, it is not too much to say thatscreen dramatisations have been greatersuccesses than the successful stageplays they reproduced."

SACRED MISSION FOR PEACE" The glory that once was has de-

parted from war, and as an instrumentof power and of acquisition war as apolicy is to-day more than ever provingits own futility and being discredited,"said General Hertzog, the Prime Minis-ter of the Union of South Africa, in arecent speech in London. "The momentis fast approaching when only as ameasure of self-defence in the hour ofdespair will war be resorted to. Already,as is well known, the opinion that thisshould be «so is prevailing generally incivil life throughout the civilised com-

munities of the world. That at thismoment in the history of the world theBritish Commonwealth of Nationsshould espouse the cause of world peace,and exercise its great influence anddevote its energies on behalf of man-kind, as it is doing, is something whichmay well inspire it with the feeling ofa great and sacred mission."

NEVER-ENDING QUESTLegendary places and lost treasure

have always troubled the imaginationsof men, says the Morning Post. I hosehave set them seeking, not so muchfor material reward as for the satis-factions of the search and the shy, in-credulous hope of finding perfection atjourney's end. Atlantis, the garden oithe Hesperides. the GoidenFleece, the Holy' Grail—all have setmen speculating and adventuringwithout final accomplishment. Beliefin the existence of Zarzura—'a whitec'itv, white as a dove"—is founded pio-

cariously upon Arabian legend, and aclue from Herodotus. I here is no con-clusive proof that the city ever existed.If it did, it seems likely that it nowlies buried irretrievably beneath thesand. Men will always dream of un-seen cities, whether of stone or spiiit.The Zarzura Club in London has setits heart upon a white city by an oasisin the desert; Blake dreamt of a new

Jerusalem "in England's green andpleasant land." But probably the waywill always be found more excitingthan the goal—Not for us are content, and quiet, and peaco

For we sjo'scckinjr a city that we shall neverfind.

TRADE WITHIN THE EMPIRE

Speaking of the possibility of ex-panding the sale of British goods inoversea markets, Lord Blcdisloe said ina recent speech that economic nation-alism had undoubtedly, in a relativesense, come to stay. How then couldcompensation be found in other diiec-tions? First, within the British Tsles,and, secondly, in the oversea Empireterritories. The growing solidarity ofthe peoples of the Empire, the develop-ment of greater mutual confidence andsympathy, and the desire, so far as waspracticable, to "keep business in the

family" of the British Commonwealth,should tend gradually, but none theless surely, to replace such loss of tradewith foreign customers as might proveto have been permanently suffered bymanufacturers in the British Isles.Trade statistics of the past three yearsindicated the inception and progressof this tendency since the disastrouseconomic slump of five years ago andthe signing of the Ottawa agreementsembodying a modification of Britain s

policy of equality of treatment of allimports from oversea. In the main, theinauguration of Empire preference hadjustified itself'from the standpoint ofBritish manufacturers as well as of

Dominion primary producers. TheEmpire was by no means a saturatedmarket for British goods. If Britaindid not seek this increasing business,foreign agents undoubtedly would. Per-haps they did not realise that over -10per cent of the exports of the UnitedStates went to the British Empire. Inall questions of Empire trade policytheir vision must be expansive inregard to world conditions or theirtrade might fail to expand.

AMERICAN SPENDING HABITS

General uniformity in the way Ameri-can wage-earners and low-salariedworkers spend their money is revealedin an extensive study of consumer pur-chases being conducted by the UnitedStates Bureau of Labour Statistics,writes the Washington correspondentof the Christian Scienco Monitor. Whilethere is a general similarity inspending by families with tho same in-comes the country over, the bureauis also finding significant variationsfrom city to city due to differences incosts, to traditions, to tho physicalsituations of cities and to local regu-lations affecting consumer purchasing.Among other things, the bureau hasconcluded that Americans like to "goplaces." As the economic status of afamily improves, expenditures fortransportation rise more rapidly thanthose for other major items in thofamily budget. Mechanical refrigera-tors, though expensive, arc makinga big appeal to low-paid southerners.Detroit families buy automobileswhen they get a rise, whereas Bos-tonians are more likely to use thoadditional money to send their chil-dren to the institutions of higherlearning abounding in that part of thocountry. Michigan's susceptibility tothe automobile was illustrated byfigures showing that 68 per cent ofthe fajnilies studied in Detroit ownedcars, compared with only 14 per centin Boston and 15 per cent in NowYork, where traffic and parking pro-blems are great and. other forms oftransportation cheap. Many familiesfind it necessary to put up with lessin tho way of convenience in order toderive tho rolativo security of homoownership. City families run into debt..Tho average Now York City familyspent or made commitments for 96dollars more a year than it received.In Detroit the deficit was 13 dollars.Boston families averaged a net savingduring a year of two dollars.

LOCAL AND GENERAL

Smaller Limited ExpressThe limited express which loffc for

Wellington last night was not as largeas is usually the case for a Sundaynight train, consisting of 10 cars, ofwhich ono sleeping car and two secondclass carriages were extra. On a Sun-day this train frequently reaches 12 or14 carriages. The express to NewPlymouth left with only two extra carsattached.

Aorangi from SydneyAfter having been withdrawn from

the Sydney-Vancouver mail service forono round trip to enable a damagedcrankshaft to be replaced, the RoyalMail liner Aorangi will arrive at Auck-land at 7.130 this morning from Sydneyand berth at Prince's Wharf. TheMonowai, which was brought into ser-vice for ono trip, replaced the Aorangi.The liner will leave at 11 o'clock to-morrow morning in continuation of hervoyage to Vancouver.

Taneatua Express DelayedThe express running from Taneatua

to Auckland was delayed at Paeroafor about an hour on Saturday after-noon as the result of several waggonsof a ballast train being derailed dur-ing repair operations between Paeroaand Te Aroha. The permanent way wasundamaged, but it was necessary tohold the express at Paeroa until theline was cleared and it did not reachAuckland until after seven o'clock in-stead of the normal time of 0.20 p.m.

Station on Sunday IslandThe intention of the Public Works

Department to take a portion of Sun-day island to establish an acradiostation for meteorological purposes isofficially notified in the latest Gazette.The area being taken is described assection 9 of Raoul or Sunday Island,containing 275 acres more or less. Thenotice states that the plan of the landto be taken is deposited not only atthe office of the district engineer ofPublic Works in Auckland, but alsoat the office of the Public Works De-partment on Sunday Island, where it isopen for inspection.

Accident Victims' ConditionAdmitted to the Auckland Hospital

on Friday with head injuries sufferedwhen he was knocked down by a taxi.Mr. Arthur Lloyd, aged 71. of 23France Street, Newton, is still in aserious condition, although he is re-ported to be making an improvement.The condition of Edna Maureen Kyle,aged four and a-half, the daughter ofMr. J. Kyle, of 121 Crummer Road,Grey Lynn, who was admitted to thehospital on Friday with headis still serious. Mr. James Smith, aged58, married, of lIS Elgin Street, GreyLynn, who was admitted the same dayafter being struck on the head by apiece of timber, is no longer in a seriouscondition.Kookaburras at Zoo

Two pairs of kookaburras or laugh-ing kingfishers have arrived at theAuckland Zoo from Melbourne andwill be placed on exhibition within thenext few days. The birds, which com-prise a young pair and a more maturecouple, are the first of the species tobe owned by the zoo. Although theyexperienced a fairly rough trip acrossthe Tasman they have settled suffi-ciently in their new surroundings tostart giving'their characteristic crywhich closely resembles the sound ofnoisy laughter. Two pea hens alsocame with the birds which are fromthe Melbourne Zoo. The whole con-signment has been exchanged for apair of keas and several pukekos whichwill be sent to Melbourne at an earlydate.

Publicity Films Criticised"I am in a position to say that the

Government intends to consider the fur-ther production of films for publicitypurposes," said Mr. J. J. W. Pollard,at a meeting of the executive councilof the South Islands Travel Associa-tion at Dunedin. "If they enter- thatfield without obtaining expert technicaladvice they will involve the country andthemselves in a great expense to nopurpose. The film industry is ono inwhich money can be lost in a very shorttime; Australia has lost thousands andEngland millions of pounds. The scenicfilms which are sent out from New Zea-land lack sunshine. They are dull, justas many of the Tourist Department'sphotographs sent overseas are dull. Thiswill not attract tourists, who want sun-shine."Examiner Who Tailed

Some of the difficulties in estimatingthe reliability of examinations werementioned by Mr. H. C. McQueenwhen lecturing on educational prob-lems at the university extension lec-ture on Saturday. He told the storyof six professors who were given a setof history papers to mark. The firstexaminer, being very conscientious,wrote specimen answers in the way heconsidered the questions should havebeen answered. The scripts became con-fused so that the professor's paper wassent to tho other examiners, three ofwhom failed him. Reference was alsomade during the lecture to this coun-try of official forms. If subjects wereto be useful, said .Mr. McQueen, nochild should leave school without sev-eral hours' practice in tho filling inof governmental forms.Tree Planting Scheme

Near tho Mount Etako (TinakoriHill) Government wireless station,Wellington, tho Post and TelegraphDepartment owns 75 acres of land,which was formerly town belt. A startlias been made to clotho the hills withtrees once more. Of tho 75 acres men-tioned, 35 acres 011 the eastern sideof the ridge overlooking tho city havealready been planted in the last threeseasons, and of the trees planted in thefirst two seasons, more than 90 percent are making good already. Thiswinter 110 fewer than 6000 trees havebeen planted in the area, making atotal of about 13,000 for the threeyears. All are native trees. They con-sist of ngaios. pohutukawas (which doespecially well on the hills), hou-hous(live lingers), myrtles, karakas, raugi-oras, rim us and ratas.The King Remembored

A pleasant sidelight on King GeorgeVI. is given in a recent letter fromEngland. The writer's 'brother, soonafter the Coronation, attended an in-vestiture to receive the M.V.O. andthe Coronation Medal. When lie step-ped forward the King gave him a smileof recognition and, to his utter sur-prise, greeted him with tho word"Samaki." He had been attached fora time to tho Royal party when thoKing and Queen were hunting big gamein Africa 13 years before, and"Samaki" was the nickname b.\ whichhe had been known in camp. In spiteof tho lapso of time, King Georgo hadremembered both tho man and thename, and after investing him gave hima cordial handshake and mentionedsome of the experiences they had sharedon the trip.

HOT POOL VICTIMMAORI WOMAN'S DEATHBRAVE ACT OF HUSBANDJUMPED IN TO SAVE WIFE

SEVERE SCALDS SUFFERED

[by TULEGRAPH—OWN C'ORRKSrOXDEXT]ROTORUA, Sunday

The hot pools of Ohinemutu claimedanother victim last evening, when a

married Maori woman. Mrs. HeranaKonui, aged .'lB, lost her life as a resultof falling backward into a small poolalongside a warm bathing place on pri-vate property. She was extensivelyscalded about the body and legs anddied in the Rotorua Hospital to-day.Her husband, Mr. Pantii Konui, who

made an heroic attempt to save her lifeby jumping into the boiling pool andtaking her to the bank, was alsoseverely scalded and is at present inhospital.

The woman and her husband, togetherwith her father, had been visiting afriend at Ohinemutu and, before return-ing to their home at Ngapuna, it wassuggested they might have a bath oil

a near by property. After being in thebath for some time, Herana Konuicrawled to a ledge, behind which thesmall boiling pool was located.

A few minutes later the attention ofthe others was attracted by her screamsand they saw her falling backward intothe hot pool. Her husband immedi-ately jumped into the boiling water andbrought her to the bank, but, in spiteof her fairly brief immersion, thewoman had suffered terrible injuries.Alter receiving attention at a near byhouse she was taken to hospital, whereshe died at 11.45 a.m. to-day.

The condition of Mr. Panui Konuiwas reported this evening to be notserious. An inquest will be openedbefore .Mr. W. L.' Richards, coroner,

to-morrow.

ROAD BLOCKEDTHAMES TO COIiOMANDEL

SLIP COVERS THREE CHAINS

TELEPHONE LINES IN SEA

[from our own correspondent]THAMES, Sunday

A large slip occurred on the Thames-Coromandel coast road, about half amile oil the Thames side of Wilson'sBay, Kerita, on Saturday morning. Theroad is completely blocked and will befor some days, as it is estimated thatthere arc thousands of yards of spoiland rock to bo removed. The country inthe vicinity is high and of a rockynature. An inspection made by theCoromandel County foremaji showed uo

reason for the mass coming down, asboth ground and slip were dry.

The slip extends for nearly threechains, covering the road, and thedebris ran right into the sea, carryingtelephone poles and wires with it. Tele-phone communication with Coromandelwas cut off for some hours.

The service car from Coromandel toThames was the first to discover theslip, and it had to return.

The Coromandel County Councilorganised a gang, which began workto-day. .

It is expected that by to-morrowthere will be a track available fortransport across the top of the slip.In the meantime the only road connec-tion with Coromandel is throughMercury Bay, making the distance fromThames 55 miles, compared with 35miles by the direct route.

SHIP BOMBEDREBEL AIRCRAFT

VICIOUS ATTACKBRITISH OIL TANKER

ITALIAN VESSEL HIT

HER CAPTAIN WOUNDED

By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright(Received August P, 5.5 p.m.)

LONDON, August 7"When the steamer British Corporal

arrived at Algiers yesterday hermaster, Captain J. H. Bovill, re-

ported that the occupants of threemonoplanes bombed her for anhour. There were no casualties andonly slight damage was done to thevessel.

The captain said that when thecrew attempted to take to the boatsthe machines swooped down and theairmen machine-gunned them, forc-ing them to take shelter.

It is reported that the Italiansteamer Mongioia was also bombedwhen she was aiding the British Cor-poral, the master. Captain Verrito,being wounded.

i '

Bombs o! German ManufactureThe British Corporal was homeward

bound laden with ben7.ine when shewas attacked. The first news of thebombing came from Marseilles, whenit was reported that the vessel hadsent out an S.O.S. call for assistance.

The Admiralty stated later, how-ever, that the.British Corporal had can-celled the S.O.S. and was going toAlgiers.

Captain Bovill said the monoplanesconcerned looked like Italian Capronis.Splinters collected from the decksafter the ship's arrival at Algiers arealleged to have shown that the bombswere of German manufacture.

Forty aerial torpedoes were droppedfrom the, machines and the concussionsput the vessel's wireless out of action.

Withering Machine-gun FireCaptairi' Bovill added: "A terrific

explosion awakened me at 5.15 a.m.I saw the three aeroplanes flying lowand bombs were dropped at the fore,aft and middle of the ship. Fortunately,all missed.

"The machines came over a secondtime and then dived down to 150ft.over the ship and the airmen openeda withering machine-gun fire as wewere attempting to take to the boats.Several bullets crashed into my cabin.Others struck the bridge. The crewrushed below and nobody was injured."

An official report to the Admiraltyfrom the British Consul-General atAlgiers confirms the earlier report thatSpanish insurgent aeroplanes attackedthe British Corporal. The Consul-General states: "The markings on theaircraft indicated that probably theybelonged' to the insurgents. A strongprotest is being made to the authoritiesat Palma."

The British Corporal is a steamerof 6972 .tons gross register, owned bythe British Tanker Company, Limited.She was built in 1922 by Palmers andCompany, Limited, Newcastle. Herport of registry is London.

NEUTRALITY PLANCOMMITTEE'S FINANCES

GREAT POWERS IN ARREARS

BRITISH PROPORTION PAIDBy Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright

(Received August 8, 5.5 p.m.)LONDON, August 7

The feeling of scepticism regardingnon-intervention was increased yes-terday by the disclosure of financialdifficulties.

The Australian Associated Presssays it understands that the sec-retary of the committee pointed outthat there was very little left in thecoffers. Only Britain was not inarrears. The British Treasury wasdetermined not to provide moremoney until others had paid up thearrears of current subscriptions, dueon August 8.

This announcement was greeted withpolite silence until the Earl of Ply-mouth, chairman, pointed out that ifthe position was not clarified the sub-committee might be called next weekto consider the finances.

Thereupon the Ambassadors, whofeared that their chances of Augustholidays were vanishing, hastily an-nounced that they would approach theirGovernments. They had no doubt themoney would be forthcoming.

It was understood that SO percent of the committee's costs isborne by Britain, France, Italy, Ger-many and Russia, and that Britain andGermany alone paid their subscriptionsin June, and Britain was the sole con-tributor in Julv.

The contributions amount to £IOO,OOOa month. Until they are paid no moneyis available for the salaries of 600 inter-national observers of wham naval menare the most active, but observers onthe French and Portuguese frontiers arenot employed.

It was officially announced to-daythat 11 of the smaller Powers hadpaid their contributions and that Bel-gium had even paid up in advance.

A communique states that yesterday'sinterpretation of the secretary's state-ment was due to a misunderstanding."What it was desired to emphasise wasthat Britain alone, of the five greatPowers, had paid up to date, but as thegreat Powers contribute 80 per centthe total deficit was large.

OBSERVATION SCHEME

DELEGATES SEEK REPORT

COMMITTEE'S DIFFICULTIES

British Wireless RUGBY, August 6After sitting for an hour and a-half

at the Foreign Office, the Non-inter-vention Committee to-day decided torequest the chairman, the Earl of Ply-mouth, and the secretary of the Non-intervention Board, for a report on theobservation scheme and for suggestionsfo.r restoring and improving the schemeof control in Spain.

At the beginning of the meeting LordPlymouth said he was able to recordsome progress toward the elimination ofthe difficulties in securing the adoptionof the British proposals, but unfor-tunately not sufficient to enable thecommittee to proceed.

However, said the chairman, he hadfound all the representatives equallyanxious to avoid a breakdown of thecommittee's work, and he thought areport and suggestions of the kindwhich the committee later agreed to askfor, would be available while he con-tinued to seek a way out of the diffi-culties.

The Soviet representative intimatedhis Government's inability to modifyits opinion against the recognition ofbelligerent rights in favour of the Span-ish insurgents.

The German representative said thatunilateral control clearly could not goon indefinitely.

In reply to the Russian representa-tive's request for a specific statementthat the German, Italian and Portu-guese Governments would agree uncon-ditionally to the withdrawal of volun-teers, Dr. A. R. Monteiro, PortugueseForeign Minister, emphasised the essen-tial interdependence of the British pro-posals which the Portuguese Govern-ment had accepted in principle as awhole.

Count Grandi reiterated specificallyand categorically that the Italian Gov-ernment accepted the British plan inprinciple.

The committee is not likely to meetagain for at least a fortnight.

County's Good StartTho Essex team made a fine start, the

second century being raised with onlyone wicket down.

Nicholls, who wasa member of A. H. H. Gilligan's team.which toured New Zealand in the 1929-30 season. A

Dunning was responsible for a finespell of bowling after tho tea adjourn-ment. He took three wickets for threeruns, including two with successive de-liveries.

The Essex innings, which was onewhich promised a very high score, fin-ished abruptly for quite a moderatetotal. The excellence of the wicket madeall the more praiseworthy the effective-ness of Cowie and Dunning.

ROCKET APPARATUSLONDON, August 6

The Star, in referring to the state-ment in tho House of Commons bySir Thomas Inskip, Minister for thoCo-ordination of Defence, that Britainhad found a means of killing air raids,suggests that tho invention of Mr.Harry Grindell Matthews, noted re-search worker in air defence, has beenadopted.

The invention consists of an appara-tus for firing rockets carrying para-chutes. Each is equipped with numer-ous strands of milled wire with fretsaw-like teeth varying in length from 250to 1000ft.

Tlio parachutes, released at heightsup to 30,000ft., would form an aero-plane-proof curtain as the sharp wirowould cut the wings and entangle thepropellers of aircraft.

Sir. Matthews says the apparatus ismost mobile and can be used from anyvehicle, from a battleship to a motor-car. The rockets would take only a fewminutes to fire and would reach30,000ft. in 25 seconds.

SEARCH FOR OILPLANS OF GOVERNMENTLARGE SUM TO BE SPENT

STATE CONTROL POLICY

OUTLINE BY MINISTER[BY TELEGRAPH—OWN CORRESPONDENT]

NEW PLYMOUTH, Saturday

A more vigorous search for oil, inwhich the Government is prepared tospend a large sum of money if neces-sary, was indicated to-day by the Min-ister of Mines, tlie Hon. P. C. Webb,when he was given a civic welcome atNow Plymouth. "I am confident thatwithin the next 12 months we will bemaking the most serious efforts evermade in the search for oil in New Zea-land," said Mr. Webb. "Every largo

company has been told that, unless itis prepared to search for oil with thomost modern and up-to-date appliancesin the world, the Government will takea hand in the matter.

"I would not hesitate," he con-tinued, "about asking the Government,not for £IOO,OOO, but I would take the

risk of asking for £500,000. If wespent £500,000 in the search for oil andtho indications were such that we werejustified in spending £500,000, or even£1,000,000, then that money wouldhave been well spent, because once weget a flow of oil in this country it isgoing to bo a wonderful asset.

"I had a look at tlie oil works atNew Plymouth once before, and I wasvery impressed with the possibilitiesthey presented from the layman's pointof view," said Mr. Webb. "I have seenoil oozing out of the ground in smallquantities, and I think a reservoirmust be there.

Attitude to Companies"There are no two opinions about the

duties of the Government when itcomes to searching for oil," the Minis-ter declared. Unless companies holdingrights wore prepared to proceed vigor-ously with the work, they would nothold tlie rights longer than could hehelped. The Government would nothave them holding down rights to thedetriment of the people. Mr. "Webbmentioned that previously when he hadspoken about oil shares went up 9d. Alot of people read wrongly out of hisstatement that large quantities wereabout to ho discovered, and many shareschanged hands. However, until theHouse met he did not want to say muchabout it, nor did he want to say muchabout gold, because it might result ingambling on tho Stock Exchange, andpeople might think they could makemoney quickly.

"Wo have a bill to come down whichprovides that if oil is discovered itwill belong to the people of this coun-try and no company," said Mr. Webb."If wo can produce petrol it will borefined in this country. We have restric-tions in the interests of the public, andI do not think we will allow anyone tosay 'the oil belongs to me.'

"Belongs to the Nation""If oil is here in quantities which

make it possible to exploit it commer-cially, it belongs to the nation, andmust be worked in tho interests of thenation. You may rest assured that theGovernment will leave nothing un-turned on that score."

Every assistance would bo given tocompanies prepared to drill for oil,said the Minister, and ho was surethat inside of probably the next yearthere would bo drills finding their wayvery deep in the search for oil. TheGovernment had not been asleep. Somogeologists said that the strata-of NewZealand was more difficult to bore thanthat of any other country in tho world,but with modern plant, experts were ofno two opinions that it could be pene-trated.

Mr. Webb stressed the importance ofoil being produced in the country, andits bearing on many aspects of indus-try, such as transport and fuel. Homentioned also tho importance, in theevent of hostilities abroad, of thoability of the country to depend on itsown supplies.

"If wo cannot get oil out of thoground we will get it out of coal beforemany years pass by," 110 declared. "Ithink I can say that New Zealand willbo independent of tho rest of thoworld as far as oil is concerned."

MEN ON SUSTENANCE

PAY STOPPED WHEN ILL

THE SYSTEM CRITICISED[BY TELEGIIAPII—PRESS ASSOCIATION']

PALMERSTON NORTH, Saturday

"I criticised tho past Government,and I am going to criticise the presentone," said tho Mayor of PalmerstonNorth, Mr. A. E. Mansford-, whenspeaking at a function organised bythe Women's Hospital Auxiliary."When a man on sustenance or relieffalls ill, he receives sustenance pay-ments for three weeks, after which 110has to get up from a sick bed, as a.man did last week, or else is thrownon charitable aid, imposing an . extra1burden on hospital boards. If moneycan bo found for a man when he is wellit should bo found for him tf'hen 110 be-comes ill, without compelling him toseek charitable aid."

Mr. Mansford had suggested thatMr. J. Hodgens, M.P. for PalmerstonNorth, who was to follow him on thoplatform, should reply to this criticism,but Mr. Hodgens said it would not bofitting for him to do so at tho moment."I am sure tho Mayor said what hodid, with a snpJo 011 his face, knowingI would not mako any roplv to himhero," said Mr. Hodgens. "Ho knowsfull well thero is a timo and placo todiscuss such problems, but this is cer-tainly not it."

MEDICAL SCHEME

REPLY TO DR. CASHMORE

[iJY TELEGHArH—PRESS ASSOCIATION]WELLINGTON, Sunday

"In his address to tlio HastingsRotary Club, Dr. Oashmore complains,that tho Government's health insurancescheme will react to tho detriment oftho standard of medical practice in NowZealand," suid Dr. D. G. McMillan,M.P., chairman of the National HealthInsurance Conunittco, when interviewedto-day. "Dr. Cashmore's statementseems to indicate that medical men aremore devoted to the fee than the scienceof medicine. I cannot accept such a lowestimation of tho medical profession inthis country."

TYPHOID FEVERNO FURTHER CASES

GREAT BARRIER OUTBREAK

RECOVERY OF PATIENTSNo further oases of typhoid fever

have occurred in the native settlementat Catherine Bay oil Great BarrierIsland sinco the 87 residents of lourvillages were innoeulated by officers ofthe Health Department last week-end.To carry out the work of immunisationDr. 0. B. Gilberd and Mr. W. Armourmade uso of a seaplane to transportthem from the Hobsonville Air Baseto the island and, had favourable con-ditions prevailed yesterday, a secondvisit would have been made.

Before tho epidemic was checkedfour daths occurred and over 30 casesof varying severity were discovered.Two Maori boys who were in a seriouscondition have since made good pro-gress and, following the treatment, theothers who were moro mildly affectedhave either recovered or are now ina convalescent stage. There is con-sidered to be little likelihood of theepidemic gaining any further groundunless uninnoculated persons immi-grate to the affected settlements.

In overcoming the fatalistic attitudewhich was adopted by the Maoris inregard to tho spread of the diseaseboth science and resource played a part.In an address to tho leaders of thohapus, Dr. Gilberd pointed out thefallacy of tho view that the nativeswere stricken by a curse and to exem-plify his contentions he explainedthe results of the positive laboratorytests. The result was that, adoptinga moro logical standpoint, the nativesagreed to exercise the precautions thatwere recommended.

To complete the programme of im-munisation, Dr. Gilberd and Mr.Armour intended returning to theisland by seaplane yesterday but tele-phonic reports indicated that thowater was too rough to make a land-ing. If conditions are improved to-daytho trip will be made and, if this isnot possible, it will be undertaken onthe first fine day this week. In themeantime the work of checking theepidemic is under the supervision oftho district nurse.

PARACHUTE DESCENTSILLUSION THRILLS CROWD

APPARENT TRAIL OF SMOKE

ONE LANDING -ON MUD BANK

Thrills of an unexpected characterwere experienced by a large crowd atMangere aerodrome yesterday afternoonduring an aerial display. Parachutedescents were made by Mr. G. W.Sellars and in the course of his seconddrop, from above 2000ft., he stageda spectacle that caused tho onlookersaudibly to express surprise and con-sternation.

As the parachutist dropped from thoaeroplane his course was discernible bya stream of smoke, which grew involume and intensity as Mr. Sellarshurtled earthward. The illusion thatthe apparel of tho parachutist was onfire and that his parachute was affectedand would not open was successfullystaged. The exclamations of concern,which arose from all parts of the crowd,changed into murmurs of relief as theparachute opened and the trail ofsmoke disappeared. <

?When the onlookers realised theyhad been cleverly duped by a veryrealistic effect especially staged fortheir entertainment they showed theirappreciation. The stream of _ "smoke"was created by the parachutist releas-ing a mixture of flour and black oxidefrom a container a.s ho fell.

A further, thrill was given tho spec-tators, and, incidentally, the para-chutist himself, when the strongsoutherly wind "carried him across thelanding ground toward the estuary oftho Manukau. By spilling air, Mr.Sellars made a landing on tho mudbank beyond tho view of the crowdand returned to tho hangar with agenerous coating of mud on his overalls.

OFFICE JUNIORS

MINIMUM WAGE PROVISION

OPINIONS OF EMPLOYERS

[BY TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION]HAWERA, Saturday

The contention that the Shops andOffices Act,- by providing a minimumwage of 15s a week, with half-yearlyincreases of 4s for office juniors andmessage boys, was opposed to the bestinterest of the employees was made bytho Hawera Chamber of Commerco. Itwas decided to circularise a resolutionof protest to all chambers and theManufacturers' Association, and for-ward it as a remit to tho annual con-ference of tho Associated Chambers.

It was pointed out that 0110 ill-effect of tho law was that the em-ployer was held back from payingabove tho minimum by reason of thefact that a half-yearly increase had tobo added to tho actual wage paid. Asa result many juniors had to wait fortho expiry of six or 12 months befororeceiving any extra remuneration.

Another ill-effect was that when itbecame uneconomic to employ a mes*sage bov thero was no alternative butto dismiss him,\as future employershad to take into account tho boy's pre-vious experience

It was contended that the Do.minion was soon going to be faced withanother "unwanted youth" problem.

STATE HOUSINGPROGRESS OF SCHEMES

REVIEW BY MR. J. A. LEE

TENDERS FOR 1400 DWELLINGS

LAND PURCHASED IN 40 TOWNS

Since the inception of the Govern-ment housing construction scheme lastyear, tenders have been called for theerection of more than 1400 houses, ac-cording to a statement made yesterdayby Mr. J. A. Lee, Parliamentary

Under-Secretary in charge of Housing,who is at present in Auckland. In themajority of cases, Mr. Lee said, tendershad been let and actual buildingoperations were proceeding. Schemeswere rapidly being developed to serveother districts.

"The Housing Construction Depart-ment has not had its first birthdayyet," Mr. Lee said, "and I think weare entitled to feel some satisfactionwith the progress which we have made.Building schemes are actually underway or else satisfactory tenders havebeen received and we are ready tostart operations at Lower Hutt, Mira-mar and Johnsonville in Wellington, atOrakei and Otahuhu in Auckland, andat Christchurch, Dunedin, Invercargill,Oamaru, Thames, Whakatane, NewPlymouth, Masterton, Wanganui,Palmers ton North and Westport.

Negotiating Land Purchases"In 10 of the places which I have

just mentioned Government houses arealready in course of construction. Ten-ders are being called for houses on theCasey Estate at Auckland and forschemes at Whangarei, Tauranga,Napier, Hastings, Levin, Patea,Hawera, Timaru and for additionalschemes at Christchurch and Dunedin.Other towns are also receiving atten-tion, but owing to the difficulty ofnegotiating satisfactory purchases ofland, the schemes are slower in start-ing. Altogether, land for housing hasbeen purchased in 40 different towns.

In planning the activities of the de-partment, Mr, Lee continued, therewas much more to be done than merelybuying the land and erecting thehouses. Questions of sewerage, roadingand the supply of water, gas and elec-tricity h«id to og invesfcihad to be taken of the varying ratesfor these facilities in different parts ofthe country.

Criticism of Rents"Some critics are still complaining

that our rents are too high and thatit will be impossible for a worker totake one of our houses," Mr. Lee said."I should like to know where a toilercan get even a shack at a figure com-parable to our rents. The Orakei houseswill be 10s to los a week

_

cheaperthan would be paid for a similar typeof house built privately.

"We have planned all our activitiesas thoroughly as we can. For in-stance, every section of land which wehave bought in the main centres repre-sents a substantial saving on land purrchased for housing purposes by the pre-vious Government. In many cases thissavins; amounts to about 40 or a 0 percent."

There were still occasional complaintsthat, in the matter of contracting,the housing scheme was a "one manshow," Mr. Lee added. Actually therewere at least 30 different contractorsat work on the various schemes.

The second spell, how-ever, was disappointing.

Conditions for tho match were ideal,except for a strong southerly windwhich blew directly down the ground.Alter heavy rain the previous night thoweather was bright and sunny thismorning and the Springboks enjoyedtheir first match in New Zealand on afast ground. There was an attendanceestimated at -10,000. Among those pre-Eent at the match were the Governor-General, Lord Galway, the Prime Min-ister, the Jit. Hon. M. J. Savage, theHon. P. Frascr, Mr. Justice Ostler andthe Mayor of Wellington, Mr. T. C. A.Hislop

Prior to tlio start of play the Gov-ernor-General shook hands with tliomembers of cadi team, after being in-troduced by the respective captains,Brand and Griffiths.

The Outstanding Backs

The outstanding backs for tlio Spring-boks were- Brand and the two wing-threequarters, Turner and Williams.The forwards all played well, withBergh, van den Berg, Martin and Jen-nings always prominent. A change wasnecessary .in the Springbok forwards,owing to S. C. Louw having a slightknee injury. He was replaced byJJartin.

Wellington won the toss and playedwith the wind and against a light sun.The iirst bright incident camo when.Veitcli received from Wright and brokethrough van der Vyver's tackle.

Fleming broke through when Whitefailed to take his pass in a back at-tack, and Hansen was nearly over, onlyfast covering by the visitors saving theirline. The Springboks kept up the at-tack and began to gain possession fromthe scrums. Turner received on theblind side'from a scrum, ordered by.Wellington instead of a line-out in theSpringboks' twenty-five. The wing madea brilliant run down the line, beatingHansen and Vartan in turn. turnerthen veered infield, and White, Hof-mever and Williams handled in turn,the last-named scoring in a handy posi-tion.

The Springboks were dominant, bothhack and forward.

The visitors commenced to attackfrom the start of the second spell, butthe Wellington forwards drove themhack with loose plav. Brand was ap-plauded for two good attempts to potgoals from halfway. Wellington wasplaying better than in the first spell,due chiefly to the forwards keeping the

, ball at toe and holding togetner better.Veitch once made a nice run roundthe blind side, but the defence coveredtoo well.

DISPLAY OF SPEEDTHE VISITING WINGEBSTHREE TRIES TO WILLIAMS

DRY CONDITIONS APPRECIATED[by TELEGRAPH—ATHLETICS RF.rORTEII]

WELLINGTON, SundayA brilliant display of their speed and

capabilities was given by the Springbokwing-threcquarters, Turner and Wil-liams. Throughout the match they notonly showed ability when receiving theball at the end of a rearguard attack,but also displayed brilliance inindividual efforts.

One of the outstanding features ofthe match was the try scored by Wil-liams after Turner had made a splen-did opening. Turner is a hard man tobring down and, besides having speed,he is a very brainy player. At the startof the movement from which Williamsscored, Turner left both Hansen anilVartan standing with side-stepping andfending, and then lie made acrossfield. The clevor backing up of a playerwho wanted support if necessary wasnever more clearly exemplified by thoSpringboks than in this movement. Ina flash .W liitc, Hofmeyr and Williamswere alongside Turner and there re-sulted a great try, which brought thocrowd to its feet and also tumultuousapplause.

Williams, on the other hand, is a verydangerous scoring wing, his three triesbeing full of merit. Both these playershave greatly impressed throughout thetour, and it is fairly safo to assumethat they will be a decided thorn inthe side of the All Blacks in the firsttest match next Saturday. t

Brilliant ExhibitionBevelling in the fast conditions to

which they are accustomed at home,the Springboks gave a brilliant ex-hibition of first-class football. Bothbacks and forwards varied their tacticswell, especially the rearguard, theplayers using the short and centre kicksto trouble the opposition continually.

A great feature of the play of theSpringbok backs was their fineindividual work and, besides, they werea good combined force. Practicallyevery member of the back line showedcleverness on attack, side-stepping andswerving spectacularly and gainingspeed quickly.

One of the chief reasons for the suc-cess of the visiting team in its matchesto date has been its excellent coveringon defence, while support is alwaysoffering on attack. There were timeswhen the Springbok forwards were seenin sonic great work in support of theirrearguard. That the defence of the tour-ing team is very sound can bo judgedfrom the fact that in the five matchesplayed 011 the New Zealand tour onlyfour tries have been scored againstthem.

Forward ImprovementThe visiting forwards showed vast

improvement upon their play againstManawatu. There was more keennnessand greater activity all round. Theywere quick in breaking through andfollowing together as a pack. Thesetactics kept the Wellington backs prac-tically on defence throughout. But forthe solid play of Griffiths in this de-partment Wellington would liavo beenbeaten by a higher margin. Griffithsrepeatedly went back to save, findingthe line with good kicks and at othertimes going down gamely.It was noticeable that on the fast

ground the Springbok backs were notnearly so much worried when the for-wards kept the ball at toe as theyhave been in previous games. The duelbetween Lotz and Lambourn in hook-ing went decidedly in favour of theformer. Sometimes Lambourn got theball, but generally the strong pushingof the Springbok pack gave the ad-vantage the other way. The close pass-ing of the visiting forwards provedsuccessful, due to." the fast ground,while there was considerable force intheir loose rushes.

Brand played his usual sound gameat fullback, while Hofmeyr showedbetter form than in the match atHamilton. White dropped a few passes,but Van der Vyver, although he didsome good defensive work, was not thestar on attack that Harris has provedto be. The forwards all played welland Van den Bergh was conspicuousfor his clean work in the line-out.

There were no outstanding forwardsin the Wellington pack, which did notreveal anything to enthuse over. Thebacks received few chances, but woretoo slow in moving. Not once duringthe whole game did the wings handlethe hall in a straight-out passing bout.Veitch's defence was not too sound.Vartan played a solid game at fullback.

LURE OF GOLDA MINER'S MEMOIRSOLD IDENTITY OF WAIHI

TRIPS TO -ALASKA AND FIJI[BY TELEGRAm—OWN CORRESPONDENT]

WELLINGTON, SaturdayAn interesting manuscript recently

presented to the Alexander TurnbullLibrary is a journal of reminiscenceswritten by Mr. William Nieholl, anold identity of Wnihi. His manuscriptis of value as a sidelight on Thamesand Coromandel during the period ofthe second gold rush, which began in1867. Mr. Nieholl arrived at Thamessix months after the field was opened,when he was a boy of 16 years.

In 1870 the rush to Coromandelbegan, and that goldfield enjoyed arenaissance. Mr. Nieholl went by boat,and with his mates started work ona claim high on the CoromandelMountains, which entailed long walksalong bush trails to get his tools sharp-ened and to obtain supplies.

Staying in Coromandel for tenyears, Mr. Nieholl then trekked acrossthe Waihi Plains to Wdihi, after ashort stay in Te Aroha. He saw thewhole progress of the Waihi settle-ment. In 1887 ho was employed by aFiji syndicate to prospect the islandsfor gold. He went to places wheresome of the mountain tribes had notseen .a white man before, and spent~l6months roughing it in the ranges, be-fore the plans of the syndicate wereabandoned.

Back in Waihi he found that thingshad started to boom, there was plentyof work, but no money until the minesgot going properly. At this time thepapers were full of reports which madethe Klondike appear veritable ElDorado, so Mr. Nicholl was temptedto try his luck there. The trip did not,however, make his fortune for him,and Mr. Nicholl returned to New Zea-land poorer than he left it.

As late as 1927,. when he was 75years old, Mr. Nicholl went out aloneprospecting in the Waihi Ranges, andhad to cope with mountain slopes,dense bush, lack of food, rigorousweather conditions, and an attack ofillness which left him to find bis wayhome while he was almost blind.

[BY TELEGRAPH—ATHLETICS REPORTER]WELLINGTON, Sunday

The Springboks arc delighted withtheir victory and the players expressedpleasure at having the opportunity ofa match on a fast ground for the firsttime on the New Zealand tour.

J. L. Griffiths, the Wellington cap-tain, said he wished to congratulatethe Springboks 011 their victory andsportsmanship. He considered the visi-tors a fine side and admired the com-bination of the whole team and theplay of the forwards.

The All Black team to play theSpringboks in the first test match nextSaturday will be announced onThursday. The 20 players selected fortraining will go into camp at Otaki011 Tuesday and will return to Welling-ton on Thursday.

The Springboks will go into campat Masterton to-morrow and will returnnext Friday.

G. H. Brand, the Springbok full-back, who pulled a leg muscle in thomatch against Wellington yesterday,was limping to-day, but he expects tobo fit for tho test match. There is stilla doubt, however, as to whether howill bo available. If Brand is unableto play. Turner is almost certain toreplace him in the fullback position.

PHILLIPS INCLUDED

JOINS MEN FOR TRAINING

OUTSTANDING MAORI WINGER

The selection of W. J. Phillips, theKing Country wing-threcquarter, asthe additional player to be addedto the list of New Zealand liugbvplayers chosen to train at Otakithis week in preparation for the firsttest against the Springboks at Well-ington next Saturday, was anouncedby Mr. G. Nicholson, tho Aucklandmember of the New Zealand selectioncommittee, last evening, after a tele-graphic consultation with his co-sclectors.

Phillips was an outstanding memberof the New Zealand Maori team whichtoured Australia in 1934, captained byG. Nepia. He has been showing bril-liant form in club football this season,

and was included in the North Islandfifteen for the inter-island matchplayed at Wellington on July 10. Inthis fixture Phillips showed distinctpromise, displaying plenty of pace andfine determination.

An injury appeared to affect his playin the later trial matches. Should hebe included in the final All Black fif-teen, however, Phillips may prove avery useful member of the rearguard,as he is a difficult player to stop whenwell in his stride.

J. Dick, of Grafton, and T. H.Pearce, of Manukau, the two Auck-landers included in the training list,will leave for the South this afternoon.

STREETS SPOILTNEW TRANSFORMERS

ERECTION IN SUBURBS

UNSIGHTLY APPEARANCEThe erection by the Auckland Elec-

tric-Power Board of largo transformerboxes in residential streets is drawingnumerous complaints from house-holders, who object to their unsightlyappearance. About a dozen of .theseboxes have already been erected invarious parts of the city and suburbsand many more are to be provided inconnection with the change over toalternating current. .Residents who findtheir street frontages disfigured by thepresence of these structures hold thatthe Power Board should purchase landin order to set the transformers backfrom the street.

One of the most striking examplesof the manner in which these con-traptions can detract from the appear-ance of a pleasing street is near thecorner of Hamilton Road and SarsfieldStreet, Heme Bay. Here a large metalbox lias been erected, almost the sizeof a motor-car case. It is built onconcrete foundations on the grass plotbordering the footpath and it ispainted a violent orange colour. Sars-field Street, with its grass borders,lines of trees and glimpses of the upperharbour, is one of the most attractiveresidential streets in Auckland and thelarge transformer is an unsightlyobject in pleasant surroundings.

"The streets are being absolutelydisfigured," one resident said. "Powerpoles and overhead wires are unsightlyenough, but when we have horribleobjects like this planted in front ofour houses it is a little too much. ThoAuckland Power Board is a tradingconcern and one of the wealthiest localbodies in tho country. It should bein a position to buy small sections andplace its transformers in positionswhere they will not bo so much of aneyesore."

Tho matter was referred yesterdayto MY. 11. H. Hartley, general managerof the board, who said tho boxes werenecessary for the change over to alter-nating current and were being erectedto avoid tho necessity of placing thotransformers on poles. About a dozenof the new transformers h?ul alreadybeen installed and many more wereto be provided. They were not yet intheir finished state and eventually theywould be painted green. Where parksand other similar areas were availableat convenient sites, the transformerswere being set back off the road.

ADVERTISING MEDIUMS

POPULARITY OF NEWSPAPERS

THE NEED FOR EFFICIENCY

[nr TELEGRAPH OWN* CORRESPONDENT]CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

Officially compiled statistics of ex-penditure on advertising were avail-able in only two countries in the world,America and Norway, said Mr. A. B.Edwardes, director of the CharlesHaines Advertising Agency, Christ-church, in his address on "Stretchingthe Advertising Pound," to members ofthe Canterbury Advertising Club.

In 1935 tho expenditure on advertis-ing in the United States totalled£81,000,000, said Mr. Edwardes. News-papers, which accounted for 37.51 percent of the expenditure, providedeasily the most popular form of adver-tising, magazines and other periodicalsbeing next on the list with 26.6 percent; radio stations carried 15.16 percent, and among the others, outdoorforms of advertising, 5.5 per cent. InNorway, newspapers were first, with55 per cent out of a total expenditureof £'2.000,000, the next most popularmedium carrying 16 per cent. Radiostations were at the bottom of the listwith only 4 per cent.

Emphasising that advertising calledfor great efficiency and should beplanned well ahead, Mr. Edwardes saidthat, through misdirected efforts, a lotof advertising was not bringing in any-thing like the returns it should. Ad-vertising, too, was only part of thestory—tlie selling machine as a wholeshould function properly.

Another point made by Mr. Ed-wardes was that some firms expectedtoo much from advertising, which veryoften had to arrest a decline before itcould make any improvement. Speakinggenerally, he said he was convincedfrom his own experience that it wasmost important that advertising shouldbe informative, describing a productclearly and straightforwardly, with sim-plicity as its keynote. Emphatic declara-tions of superiority were not sufficient.Summing ,up, Mr. Edwardes said: "Anysuccessful advertiser will tell you thatthe best advertising medium is the news-paper."

RISING COSTSINSTITUTIONS AFFECTEDSCHOOLS AND ORPHANAGES

DIFFICULTIES INCREASING

Among those who are compelled towatch the steadily mounting costs ofliving in these days, not the leastconcerned are those responsible for theconduct of school and college hostelsand of orphanages. The circumstancesand methods of these institutions differvery widely, but upon one matter theyare all agreed, that greatly increasedcosts have to be faced. Several estimatethe amount of increase at from 25 percent to 50 per cent; one placed it, at30 per cent, and the most moderateestimate given was "not less than from20 per cent to 25 per cent."

When one asks what it is that hasincreased in price the constant replyis, "Pretty well everything." Two ofthe chief headings under which theadvance is noted are foodstuffs and

'labour. In tho case of labour in-creased wages are accompanied byshorter hours, which usually necessi-tates increase of staff.

Interest in DietThe increased cost of food is known

to everyone. A matron with many boysunder her charge drew attention tothe added factor introduced by thepresent widespread interest in correctand scientific diet—an interest which,however welcome for its own sake,tended to record itself in increasedfood bills. Vegetables she found tohave increased substantially in price,and both eggs and? fruit have been dearthis season. The institution with whichshe is concerned is trying to meetthe position by growing its own veget-ables.

The added costs of building and ofgeneral maintenance is a substantialitem in many cases; and in orphanages,where the children have .to be whollyprovided for, the increased price ofclothing makes heavy demands on in-come.

In all the circumstances it is sur-prising to learn that one college hasnot yet put up its boarding fees, butthat is not the general experience. Forobvious reasons hostels are loth to in-crease their charges, but in mostcases that has had to be done and yetfurther increases arc anticipated.

The Trend Still UpwardIn some eases the institutions are

still getting the benefit of annual con-tracts made a considerable time ago,but? expect higher prices when thesecome to be renewed. One hostel whichlowered its fees at the time of depres-sion first restored them to the previousfigure and then raised them well abovethat mark. _ ,

Some indication of price levels isgiven by the experience of privatehousekeepers who make a practice ofboarding schoolboys. The commoncharge used to be 23s 6d or 25s aweek, but householders now find thatthey cannot carc for the boys properlyfor less than 27s 6d. This wholetendency makes a difficult situation formany institutions as well as for in-dividuals, and not the least disturb-ing aspect of it is that it appearslikely to grow worse rather thanbetter.

POLICE TRANSPORT

DETECTIVES ON BICYCLES

POSITION IN CHRISTCHURCH[nv telegraph—own correspondent]

CHRISTCHURCH, Saturday

Offenders against tho traffic regula-tions in tho city and suburbs areusually chased and brought to book byinspectors in high-powered, fast cars.Criminals are chased usually by detec-tives on bicycles.

Tho city detective office possessesno car of its own, and its membershave to share alike with other branchesof tho force the use of the twocars attached to the station, which areused for all police work—which in-cludes many jobs outside of the actualtracing of criminals.

On the frequent occasions when theofficial ears arc in other use, detectiveshave recourse either to bicycles ortrams—and in extreme cases areauthorised to take taxis. In this Christ-church lags behind some of the othercities in the Dominion—notably Auck-land, where the detectives liavo whatis generally known as a "flying squad,"the chief part of which is a fast,modern car fitted with a special sirenfor use in clearing traffic in times ofemergency.

A year ago Christchurch also hadwhat some persons called a "flyingsquad." One of the detectives had forhis private use an English car, manyyears old, which was almost a land-mark outside the police station. Thepresent claim for tho mobility of thocity's detective force also rests on theownership by several of the membersof the force of private cars. The othersrely on bicycles, or walk, or go bytram.

FIRST LEAGUE TESTAUSTRALIA'S WIN

NEW ZEALAND BEATENMATCH AT CARLAW PARK

TWELVE POINTS TO EIGHT

HEAVY GROUND CONDITIONS

The Australian 1937 Rugby Leagueteam opened its overseas tour at Car-law Patk 011 Saturday by defeating aNew Zealand team by 12 points to 8.Although the score was 6-all at half-time, the visitors always appeared tohave better combination and surerpassing ability than the New Zealand-ers, whose forwards were called uponto bear the brunt of the work of keep-ing the big Australian forwards incheck. '

However, the New Zealand pack putup a great fight and it was only inthe scrums that the disparity wasobvious. Australia secured the ball in26 of the decisive scrums, and NewZealand held the advantage only onseven occasions. In the matter of pen-alties, mostly awarded for scrumbreaches, the visitors fared badly, NewZealand getting 27 free kicks to Aus-tralia's 12. The Australian backs proveda nippy and fast combination.

Tho attendance was estimated at19,000 and the gate takings amountedto £1339.

Visitors Secure BallSecuring the ball from the outset,

the Australian backs severely testedthe New Zealand defence, Tittletonbeing noticeable for solid tackling.Scrum infringements by the visitorsbrought several penalties, but Davi-son's line-kickiug gained little groundand he had no success with his shotsat goal.

Davison secured the ball, after pass-ing among the Australian backs _ hadbroken down. He transferred to Tittle-ton, Bickerton and Chase, and thenBickerton came in again to record thefirst try after 11 minutes' play. Itwas a bright movement by the NewZealand backs. Davison failed at goal.

New Zealand .- 3Australia 0

New Zealand was combining welland, when Beaton attempted torun across in front of his owngoal he was promptly smothered.Glynn sent the ball out to Riley, Tit-tleton and Davison and the speedywinger registered the second try amidintense enthusiasm. He missed withthe kick at goal, and with only 15minutes of play gone the score was:

New Zealand 6Australia 0

Visitors' First TryWilliams, Norman and McLean com-

bined in some neat blind-side play,Watene saving with a very lucky specu-lator. Gibbs, Lewis, Pearce and Stehrparticipated in hard rucking and short,snappy passing near New Zealand'sline and Stehr finally forced his wayover. Beaton's shot went wide.

New Zealand 6Australia 3

Williams broke .away from a scrumto beat Bickerton "completely, but Tet-ley saved by intercepting the pass.Tittleton followed through smartly tocatch Ward in possession and Aus-tralia was defending until Prigg twicerelieved with good runs after fendingoff weak tackling attempts. Right onhalf-time the visitors got going againin one of their characteristic move-ments to equalise the score. Pearce andLewis combined with their close in-and-out passing and the ball came toBeaton and McLean, who dashed overwide out. Beaton failed at goal, andthe bell sounded with the score:—

Australia 6New Zealand 6

Penalty Goal KickedTetley and Glynn headed a loose

rush by the New Zealand forwards im-mediately play was resumed and Davi-son had another ineffective shot froma penalty. From another penalty, how-ever, Davison kicked a good goal frombeyond the twenty-five to make thescore:—

New Zealand 8Australia 6

Norman figured in a promising at-tack and Tetley, McLeod and Glynnretaliated for New Zealand. Follow-"*ing a drop-out Gibbs secured, brokethrough, bumped off some opponents,and transferred to Beaton, toHazelton, who evaded tackles byWatene and Davison, to score at thecorner. Beaton's shot went wide.

Australia 9New Zealand 8

The Australian forwards appeared tobe tiring. However, Pearce andStehr came through once more withshort passing, Williams, Prigg andHazelton joining in a bright movementfor the last-named to score, althoughit appeared that the final pass was for-ward. Beaton again missed the shot atgoal, and time was called with thescore:—

BALL POSSESSIONVISITORS SUPERIOR

FINE TEAMWORK SHOWN

FREQUENCE OF PENALTIESBeaten for possession of the ball

from almost every set scrum, the NewZealanders put up a really good show-ing. Both tries scored in the first halfby Australia were due to weak tack-ling, which let the visitors' backs intoNew Zealand's twenty-five for the firsttime after 20 minutes' play.

Due to the great play of its for-wards, New Zealand had been defi-nitely on top, and the team as a wholeplayed with a lot of confidence. TheAustralian backs were bustled intomaking mistakes, and one certain trywas missed when McLean dropped alow pass from Beaton. It was almostan impossible tasVfor the home backsto do much dam/ge on attack, as theyrarely saw the ball from the scrums.

It was not until tho second half thatthe home team rose to tho occasionand did much effective tackling. Whileit was not the low tackling usuallyseen, the Australian players werepulled down from high positions, andusually with the ball. Play was fastthroughout and always interesting, asthe visitors had plenty of opportunitiesto reveal their ability on attack.

Dashing Forward PlayThe New Zealand forwards played

dashing football in the second half andmore than held, their own in the loose.Every time Williams set up a passingmovement, either McLeod or Gaultbroke fast from the scrum and checkedNorman, who was often caught inpossession. It was not until the secondhalf that Williams, the visitors' half-back, resorted to sharp kicks past theNew Zealand five-eighths. Watene wasa little slow in getting up to the balland he caused the home team manyanxious moments.

Superior teamwork played a big partin Australia's success, and in manyrespects the New Zealand team hasmuch to learn in the finer points ofthe game. The visitors were • penalisedon many occasions for not playing theball correctly, and for scrum infringe-ments. �

Clever PassingA feature of the game was the clever

passing of the Australian forwards.Many times the home defence wastested when Pearce, Stehr, Prigg andGibbs broke away apd gained usefulground from short, snappy passes whichwere always well directed. On the dayAustralia was the better team, but theNew Zealanders can be commended fora resolute game. A lot of credit is duethe home forwards for their fine ex-hibition. New Zealand actually wonthe honours on the day in loose for-

-ward play.The speed of the Australian backs

was certainly affected by the bad stateof the ground. However, they showedform sufficient to suggest that they willdevelop into a brilliant combination. Themost impressive player was Beaton, theoutside centre, who did some greatwork on attack, and was always a hardplayer to stop. On a dry groundBeaton would be seen to even betteradvantage. His speed was a revelation.

McKinnon also played a sound game,and his straight running often placedAustralia in good attacking positions.Behind the scrum, Williams proved atricky player, and never missed achance of sending the backs on at-tack. Of the wings, Hazelton, whoscored the last try, was the most im-pressive, and he showed a lot of deter-mination in runs down the side line.

Former Union PlayerA lot of interest was taken in the ap-

pearance of McLean, who played inAuckland last year with the AustralianRugby Union team. McLean was veryimpressive in the first half, and showeda fine burst of speed when he scoredhis try. At fullback, Ward had verylittle to do, but made no mistakes.

The most impressive forward in theKangaroos' team, was Gibbs, whosestraight running and general forwardplay were greatly admired. Stehr alsoplayed a good game and proved hardto pull down. He wa.s inclined to hangon too long. Pearce delighted the crowdwith many spectacular dashes, and hishandling in passing bouts was perfect.Brigg did a lot of clerer work on at-tack, although often caught in posses-sion.

Watene was slow at fullback, but hisdefence was very good, and in the lastfew minutes he saved a try with twostrong tackles. His return kicks werenot well and he should haveused the touch-lines more often. Thebest New Zealand back, was un-doubtedly Tittleton, who played a finegame at five-eighths. His tackling savedthe home team ou numerous occasions.Bickerton was prominent on attack andmade several nice openings. His generalplay justified his inclusion.

Tackling AbilityBoth the wings, Riley and Davison,

played good games. The former tackledably, but got • few chances oil at-tack. Davison played with plenty ofdash, and may do even better on adry ground. Much of the rugged playfell to R- Chase, whose sound tacklingchecked McKinnon and Beaton. Earlyin the game Halloran received a nastyknock, and the best was not seen ofhis play at halfback.

TheNew Zealand forwards all playedwell and it would be difficult to pickout the best. ,Gault played a splendidgame, and his low tackling was anobject lesson to others. McLeod andCootes were also prominent. Theformer, who replaced Pickrang, shouldretain his .place in the second test side.Glynn and Brodrick also played ably.The latter hung on a little too longon one occasion, and the home teammissed a possible try. In the back rowTetlev did a lot of useful work,although he was penalised on fouroccasions when the visitors were play-ing the ball.

Australia is now one game up in thecontest for the Transtasman Cup. Thedeciding test will be played next Satur-day.

Fraser. ofthe substantial increase, ill Staterevenue for the first quarter of thecurrent /financial year is taken off bythe concurrent and substantial expendi-ture increases shown in the Annualvotes, particularly under the heading ofsocia} services, says a statement by theAssociated Chambers of Commerce ofNew Zealand.

**y ■ The Minister could have dealt muchmore fully than he did with the furtherexpenditure necessary to meet a fullyear's charge for increased pensions,•which, together with a full year's chargefor the/ restoration of Public Servicesalaries and wages, and reduced work-ing hours in various State services, willnecessitate additional expenditure thisyear of something in excess of £750,000.The Minister could also have mentionedthe taxation which will be necessary tofloat the pending national health in-surance and national superannuationschemes.

Increased Salaries Sought" However, these things are not all,"

continued the statement. "It is nowreported to be the intention of thePublic Service Association to seek in-creased'salaries in tho Government ser-vice as soon as the present investiga-tions into general regrading are com-pleted. Without entering into the meritsof the Public Service claim, the posi-tion of the taxpayer is that he hashad to pay an extra £5,657,000 in taxa-tion in 1936-37 over tho previous yearto provide for expanded Governmentservices.

" Part of this money was needed topay not only restored salary and wagescuts, but also salaries and wages toa considerable number of the 3700 addi-tional employees who were added to theState payroll. The Public; Service Asso-ciation, basing its case on mountingliving costs, is now preparing to secureimproved salary'scales* which will meananother bill for the taxpayer. i

PAY FOR SHEARERSAGREEMENT JUSTIFIED

FOURPENCE FROM 10/6 FLEECE

SLIDING SCALE BASIS

Criticism made by the 1' eildingbranch of the Farmers' Union concern-ing the rates of pay for shearers wasreplied to yesterday by Mr. A. Cook,genera I secretary of the ZealandWorkers' Union.

"Such criticism is most unfair, docsmore harm than good, and goes a longway toward creating bad feeling be-tween employer and employee, Mr.Cook said. "The agreement is not nnew one. It was made in 19:56 be-tween representatives of the sheep-owners and shearers' unions, and is fora period of three years. The agreementprovides for a sliding scale of wages

based on the rise and fall of woolvalues, and is most fair to both em-ployer and employee. It is only that

section of employers who arc not pre-pared to grant to their workers a small,sharp of their profits who are takingexception to the increased rates.

"The rate for shearers for the 1937-3S season of 34s per 100 is in no way-

excessive, in view of the fast that theGovernment Statistician's index num-ber for export prices of greasy wool,calculated for the twelve months endedJune 30, 1936, was taken as equal to1000. It was found that the index num-ber for the twelve months ended June30, 1937, was 1700. This shows thewonderful increase received by thegrowers for their 1936-37 clip.

"Strange to say, the Feildingbranch of the Farmers' Union makesno mention of this. It omits to saythat the growers received over£5,000,000 more for their 1936-37 clipthan for the 1935-36 clip. All it cansay is that the shearers have no rightto a small portion of the £5,000,000, asprovided for under the sliding scaleagreement.

"The average price per lb. forgreasv wool for the past season was

152d,' and taking the average weightof each lleece at Sib., the grower re-ceives 10s 6d a lleece. The shearer,this season, is to rceive 34s a 100,a fraction over fourpenee per sheep,leaving the farmer a balance, on thepast season's wool prices, of 10s 2dfor each fleece shorn.

"I desire to say that farmers inFeilding or elsewhere who consider theshearer is being overpaid at 34s a100 in face of the above facts, areof the kind who are never prepared toextend a fair deal to their employees.It is they who are responsible for ashortage of farm labour. During tinpast IS months, the farmers of NewZealand have received splendid pricesfor wool, beef, mutton and lamb, andthe prices are almost sure to remainsteady for some considerable time tocome."

VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE

"USEFULNESS/' OF SUBJECTS

DISCUSSION ON PROBLEMSSome of the problems of vocational

guidance were stated by Mr. H. C. Mc-Queen, lecturer in education, at theuniversity extension lecture on Satur-day morning. The homo, the school, andfriends all helped to determine thechild's interests, he said, but desiresdid not always coincide with aptitudes.Visits to factories and commercialpremises also exerted a marked in-fluence.

Mr. McQueen was of tho opinionthat the pupil who showed considerableability at manual subjects, but was dullin the classrooms, was very largely amyth. Ability was generally tho resultof interest, and lack of attention fromtho pupil showed that the subject wasnot made sufficiently interesting. "Iam a bit sceptical about tho 'useful-ness' of subjects," stated Mr. Mc-Queen, who emphasised that experiencemust be backed by the understandingof general principles.

When referring to examinations, Mr.McQueen said that, the new type ofexaminations, tho distinguishing be-tween true and false statements, shouldbe used with discretion; their value waslimited, as the result was still a "pass"or "fail." In concluding, the lecturersaid he was dubious about vocationalguidance, *as it touched only part ofthe problem, and could not bo com-plete except with socialism.

"PROFESSOR TIM"CATHOLIC SOCIETY PLAY

IRISH ROMANTIC COMEDYGeorge Shicls' romantic comedy

"Professor Tim" was presented by theAuckland Catholic Repertory Societyto a fairly large audience in the TownHall concert chamber on Saturdaynight. Produced by Mr. Norton Ham-mond, this, simple passage from thelife of a rural" Irish household wascreditably .interpreted in the' warm,human atmosphere of the author'sconception.

The play tells of the deceptionplayed by an old man, who returns tohis family after 20 years abroad. Greatexcitement prevails in the homo justbefore his arrival, and there is con-siderable speculation as to how far histitle of professor will advance thefamily in , local society. I3ut excite-ment changes to chagrin when a dirty,ragged old man walks in and an-nounces that his title is but a nick-name. and that he is really a penni-less water diviner.

Much scope for delightful comedy, isgiven in the subsequent scenes, "andseveral exceedingly tangled love skeinsare disclosed. All is well, however, atthe end, when the professor revealshimself in his correct colours as a richand famous man, and ensures that thecourse of true love runs straight.

Generally, the interpretation was•commendable, most of the charactersbeing very well drawn, and full ad-vantage being taken of the humoroussituations.

Leo O'Malley's Professor Tim wasa convincing portraval of an old manpossessed of a full measure of Irish witand stubbornness. As Mrs. Scally PeggiCruickshank gave a fine study of awoman definitely the head of her ownhousehold, and John Reid played wellas her philosophic husband. Perhapsthe most successful interpretationswere given by Kathleen Coleman andDan Flood, as two typical Irish ser-vants, Moll O'Flanngan and PaddyKinnev. Others in the cast worePatricia Winthrop, as Peggy Scally;William Harris, as Hugh ■ O'Cnhan;Peter Brennan, as .Tames Kilroy;Nnfbli Dyer, as Josenh Kilrov; MarieBellamy, as Mrs. Kilroy; and CharlesZanlbueka. as Allison. Incidental musicwas provided bv nn orchestra compris-ing Misses N. Ormond. D. Higham andB. Fenton, and Mr. B. Fenton.

The play will be repeated to-nightand to-morrow night.

BOBBY CALVESTEADE REGULATIONSSTATEMENT BY MINISTER

FEEDING AND WEIGHTThe responsibilities carried by those

engaged in the bobby calf werementioned by the Minister of Agri-culture, the Hon. AY. Leo Martin, ina statement issued yesterday. He saidthat a number of people seemed tobe unaware of the regulations govern-ing the selling and slaughtering of thecalves, and, as a result, misunder-standings and friction had beencreated.

The Minister pointed out that underthe regulations it was an offence tosell a calf which had not been properlyand sufficiently fed daily from the timeof birth and which had not been fed•within four hours of its actual re-moval from the seller's premises. Inany proceedings brought under thisregulation the burden of proof lay onthe defendant. It was also an ollenceto purchase or to drive or convey acalf which appeared to be unfit bvreason of weakness to a place whereit was intended to be slaughtered forhuman consumption. Tho maximumpenalties for any breach of these regu-lations were £2OO in the case of anindividual and £IOOO in the case of acompany.

"Under-weight, immature calves arecondemned at the works," said theMinister, "and in order to avoid thisrejection an arrangement was madelast season between the buyers and"their carriers that calves weighingunder 4Slb. would not bo lifted fromthe farm gate. This minimum of 481b.has been found in practice to return231b. 14oz. at the works, which is theminimum weight to obviate rejectionfor immaturity. Obviously the aimshould be to forward calves of a liveweight exceeding 481b. and most well-nourished calves three days old andover are well in excess of this mini-mum."

The Minister also drew attention tothe provisions of clause 7 of the PoliceOffences Act. which states that forcausing specific instances of sufleringto animals a person is liable to a finenot exceeding £2O or to imprisonmentfor any term not exceeding twomonths.

PIG ASSOCIATION'S ATTITUDE[from OUR OWN .CORRKSI'ONDKNTI

HAMILTON. Sunday

A denial that the New Zealand Co-operative Pig-Marketing Associationhad anv intention of smashing thebobby calf pools formed by farmers inthe Waikato was given by the chairmanof directors of the association, Mr. W.A. Phillips, to-dav. when referring toa resolution passed and criticism offeredat a meeting of interested inthe Springdale-Flstow-Ngarua pool atSpringdale last week. Mr. Phillips saidthe association was quite in agreementwith the formation of groups of farmersto secure field benefits, which includeda reduction in cartage and an improve-ment in the weight of calves as a resultof the discipline that could be exercisedby refusing to lift under-weight calves,but where shareholders or supplies tothe association required services evenin areas where pools were alreadyformed, the association had no optionbut to provide those services. It ap-peared that with respect to those ser-vices considerable misunderstanding hadarisen. The association had placed itsclaims before groups, and while somehad already linked up with the organ-isation, no' attempt had been made bythe association to conflict with thoseproducers who had made arrangementswith other buyers. The association, saidMr. Phillips, took strong exception tosome of the statements made at theSpringdale meeting and was invitingthe speakers to either substantiatetheir allegations or withdraw them.

POLITICAL SWINGLAG IN BRITAIN

LABOUR'S LOST GROUND"" *

CONFIDENCE IN GOVERNMENT

[from our own correspondent"!LONDON, July 21

Eleven by-elections have recentlybeen held in Britain. The National Gov-ernment has won them all. The resulthas been received joyfully by its sup-porters and the moral has been drawnthat the political pendulum has notswung back to the Opposition cause ata time when it is due to do so by thelaw of average.' Propagandists have pointed out that,

even if fewer votes were polled by theGovernment candidates than at thegeneral election —and this was to beexpected—the Opposition votes haveslumped more heavily in numbers. TheOpposition admits the fall in the poll,but replies that tho Government votehas fallen and that the battle was onpredominantly Government ground.

Votes For GovernmentThere have been 31 by-elections since

the general election in November, 1935.Labour has won five seats from thoNational Government. Of these fivefour were won last year. The six monthsof 1937 has seen one Labour success,in Central Wandsworth. The last 13by-elections have not produced oneLabour member.

In the 23 by-elections betweenNovember, 1935, and Mr. Baldwin'sresignation last May tho Governmentcandidates polled 390.581 votes, againstan Opposition (combined Labour andLiberal) total of 363.111. In tho 11by-elections held since Mr. Chamberlainbecame Prime Minister tho Govern-ment candidates have polled 197,086votes, against an Opposition total of12-1,898.

Labour FollowingTho Labour vote grew steadily from

1906, when it first became a recognisedParliamentary party, until 1929. Twoyears later it fell heavily—tho actualproportion of votes in 1931 was 55 percent Coalition, .'3O per cent Labour,10 per cent Liberal and 4 per cent Inde-pendent. The ground lost then was notrecovered in 1935, and has not beenrecovered since.

In theory, say the Government sup-porters, the delayed swing of the pen-dulum - should operate more stronglyafter a Government has won two suc-cessive general elections. This happenedto the Conservatives, who lost 21 seatsduring the 1900-05 administration, com-pared with 11 seats during the1895-1900 administration. But historyhas not yet begun to repeat itself inthe National Government's secondterm.

Changed ConditionsBefore the Great War the poll at a

bv-election was generally high; it wasfelt to be a national event, and bothparties exerted themselves to poll theirlast man. To-day, all that is changed.Polling at a general election is gener-ally high, averaging 80 per cent of theelectoral roll, but at by-elections thepolls have fallen to 60, even 50 percent, of the electorate. Kingstontouched a new low level with only 38per cent ft week ago.

Most of the fall is due to abstentionsby supporters of the National Govern-ment, and is 110 doubt caused by thelarge majorities at the general electioninducing a feeling of apathy. In theNationalists' view, however, it is verysignificant that the Labour vote, whichshould increase through the normalswing of the pendulum at precisely sucha period, has fallen rapidly during thepast six months.

EURASIAN CHILDREN

HAPPINESS IN DOMINION

MISSION HOME PUPILSN

"A number of former pupils of theKalimpong Mission Homes in theHimalayas of India were present in St..David's Presbyterian Church last nightwhen the service was conducted by the•Very Rev. Dr. J., A. Graham, thefounder of these homes. T)r. Grahamhas just spent five weeks in New Zea-land mainly for the purpose of visit-ing young men and women who lmyogone' out from his homes to make theirwav 111 the Dominion.

The homes, which. are for childrenof Anglo-Indian descent, are conductedby the Presbyterian Church of Scot-hind. Dr. Graham said that these chil-dren had wonderful possibilities ifproperly taken in hand.

"1 have been for the last five weeksgoing into different parts of bothislands," said Dr. Graham, "seeingthese children and finding out whetherthey are happy; and they are happy.There is not one among them whowould like to go back to India, be-cause they feel that hero they are ina freer country, in a country thatsuits them better than any othercountry in the world. They arc grate-ful for the hospitality they have re-ceived."

Dr. Graham, said that for the lasteight or nine years no more of theseyoung people had been sent out onaccount of the depression and the num-ber of unemployed hero, but the tidehad now turned and industries weredeveloping and more labour was re-quired. He had seen the acting-PrimeMinister and was quite sure that theGovernment would willingly assent tothe request to allow more to be sentout from the homes at Kalimpong.They would not be sent out in largenumbers, because they did not havelarge numbers to send. . •

YOUTH FESTIVALWEMBLEY DISPLAY

THEIR MAJESTIES PRESENT

PRINCIPLES COMMENDED

[from our own correspondent"!LONDON. July 'J I

Self-appointed critics who have re-turned to England after a visit to theContinent have often shown a ten-dency to deplore England's apparentlack of attention to its youth in com-parison with Mussolini's Ballila andHitler's Youth. Almost as though illanswer to this criticism was the Fes-tival of Youth at Wembley Stadium,where 11,000 young people gave ademonstration before tho King andQueen and the two Prineosses.

In the inarch past were members of40 organisations, including tho Boys'Brigade, Girl Guides-, the British As-sociation for Physical Training, theEnglish Folk Dance and Song Society,the Boval Life-saving Society, thoWomen's League of Health and Beauty,the Boy Scouts' Association, the Fed-oration of Girls' Clubs, tho Schools'Athletic Association and tho GreekDancing Association.

Varied DemonstrationsIt was a demonstration not only of

youth and physical fitness, but ofesprit de corps and brilliant organisa-tion. The programme was opened bynearly 2000 youngsters of the Bovs'Brigade and in the space of a fewmoments the vast arena became anequipped gymnasium, in which teamsof white-clad gymnasts performedsimultaneous feats and exercises.

There were demonstrations of groupand team games suitable for playingfields and open spaces, recreativesports which are not merely pastimes,Maypole dancing by nearly 1000 GirlGuides, folk dancing, and a campingdisplay by the Boy Scouts. Womenstudents showed that marching andmass exercises may be accomplishedwith grace as well as efficiency.

A display of "keep-fit" work wasgiven bv 1500 girls from girls' clubsin London and the Home counties, tomusical accompaniment, reminiscent ofthe physical training displays at theAldershot Tattoo.

Cheers for King and QueenThe King and Queen remained for

two hours. On arrival they had beengiven tremendous cheers, which en-tirely drowned the fanfare of trumpetssounded by four Royal Horso Guards-men. Before their departure they con-gratulated Lord Hampden, chairmanof the .British Sports and Games Asso-ciation, oil the excellence of the dis-play.

Later tho following message wasreceived from Lord Hampden byMr. A. J. Elvin, managing-director ofWembley Stadium: —

"Their Majesties, who attended theFestival of Youth at the EmpireStadium. Wembley, commanded me tooffer their warmest congratulations toall who took part in this festival andto those concerned in its organisation.They expressed the hope that all theorganisations represented to-day wouldnot only take part in subsequent fes-tivals, but would also lend their whole-hearted support to the general schemesof development at present being initi-ated to raise the standard of nationalhealth."

BIRD SANCTUARIES

CHARM OF FARNE ISLANDS

LECTURE AT THE MUSEUMThe charm mid variety of bird life

on the Fame Islands, one of England'sbest known sanctuaries, was describedby Captain G. M. Turner in a lectureunder the auspices of the Auckland In-stitute and Museum in the arMemorial Museum library yesterdayafternoon.

Captain Turner, who illustrated hisremarks witL cinema films, said theislands, which were throe to fivemiles off the Northumberland coast,were now under the control of theNational Truat, an organisation whichwas performing excellent work in pre-serving beautiful and historic featuresof the country. Precautious were alsotaken during the nesting season bythe appointment of bird watchers torestrain possible vandalism and to pre-vent the birds from being disturbed.The bird families of these islands weretotally different from those found inNew Zealand and only one variety,the arctic tern, was likely to be seenin the Dominion.. I

Captain' Turner mentioned that theislands were also famous for the ex-ploits of Grace Darling, who, as thedaughter of the lighthouse-keeper,rescued nine people when the Forfar-shire was wrecked in September, 1831.The remains of the house in which shelived were still to be seen.

LIVELY WRESTLINGMATCH AT TOWN HALL

COX DEFEATS BLOMFI ELD

DISQUALIFICATION OF LOSERThe disqualification of "Lofty" Bloin-

ficld, of Auckland, for striking hisopponent, "King Kong" Cox, ofAmerica, in the seventh round broughta sudden termination to their livelywrestling contest at the Town Hall onSaturday night. Blonifield had beentwice thrown through the ropes, andon the second occasion, while ho wasstanding on the staging outside thering, he hit Cox with his closed fist.

Prior to this incident each man hadobtained a fall. The first was won byCox in the fourth round. He joltedthe Aucklander several times prior tolifting him for a slam and body press.Hlomfield drew level in the sixth round.A series of forearm jolts was followedby three flying tackles, each of whichsent Cox sprawling, and Blojnfield thenfinished with a body press.

There were some willing exchangesand headlocks especially were roughlyapplied. As on his former appearancesin Auckland, Cox almost' immediatelymade himself unpopular with the spec-tators, who hooted him when he pulledBlomfield's hair in order to applygreater leverage to a hold. He waswarned by the referee on numerous occa-sions for this illegal action and also forpressing his knee into the Aucklander'sthroat.

Much Water SpilledCox several times resented the action

of the referee in ordering him to re-lease strangleholds. At the end of eachround Cox filled his mouth with waterand blew it into the air so that it camedown on his head and shoulders like ashower. He then poured the contents ofthe bottle over his head.

When ho had obtained his fall in thefourth round Cox evidently thought hissuccess worthy of much more water. Heordered his seconds to hand him thebucket that is always at the ringside,and he lifted this and poured the entirecontents over himself. This action pro-voked much derisive laughter, but itdrenched the mat round about hiscorner, where the water lay like asheet.

The American waved defiantly to thecrowd, which booed him loudly. Again,when Blonifield obtained his fall, Coxgesticulated in a manner which sug-gested that he was disgusted, and thisonly added to his already firmly-estab-lished unpopularity.

The match attracted a very large at-tendance. Blonifield weighed 16st. 101b.and Cox 16st. Mr. J. McLean wasreferee.

UNEMPLOYED SOLDIERSSir,—l am not a Labour supporter

but 1 think Mr. Savage is a very sane,'level-headed man. and a credit to anyGovernment. Perhaps now lio is baeicfrom his tour he may be able to solvethe all-important unemployment ques-tion. Mr. Savage must know New Zea-land is at present experiencing a waveof prosperity that is sweeping thewhole world. Yet with the wealth inNew Zealand to-day, it does not seemgood government to still have ."i-3.000unemployed. I regret that Mr. Savagedid not visit the millions of wargraves in France. Had he done so hewould have some sympathy for thethousands of living dead soldiers un-employed in New Zealand to-day. Justwhat is his Government going" to dowith us? Do we not come before younglads and old-age pensioners? I "thinkwe do. Had we lost the war I j(lsjcan't see where, the youth and old ageof this country would be tinder therule of the likes of Germany. I sin.cerely hope Mr. Savage some-thing for the unemployed soldiers, anddo it quickly. A.\ZXc.

THE SPRINGBOKSSir,—I think "Old llugbvite" is in

error when he says that the Spring-boks received "scant applause" 'whenthey scored in the match at EdenPark. I thought the applause was both',spontaneous and genuine. Certainly if?did not have the exuberance of thatwhich was manifested when Aucklandscored. But we all saw quite earlythat our team was outclassed, and itrwas the fact of. them being able toscore at all that caused the frenzy.T quite agree with "Old. Rugbyitd"that the remarks of an ex-captain of

New Zealand team are to be de-plored. 1 think our play has de-teriorated somewhat. The young fel-lows do not train as we used to dosome years ago. I think, too. that theheatings the Springboks are giving uswill give a well-needed fillip to Rugbyand, by giving our vanity a deservedshock, make us pay more attention tothe game." when we will soon' againbecome the leading exponents ofRugby football, as we most .certainlywere 30 years ago.

DEAR FRUIT IN ENGLAND

Sir. —The information by Mr. HarveyTurner in Wednesday's Herald is mis-leading, since he quotes the pricescharged by the most expensive andexclusive West End shops. I.have justheard from a sister at Home, who isamazed at the high price of orangeshere and says they are never dearerthan five for 6d, and this for fine Jaffaoranges, which are larger than thf>Sydney navel, and unequalled forsweetness and flavour. This is in theNorth of England, where fruit isalways dearer than in the south. Com-pare this with Mr. Turner's quotationof one dollar a dozen in New Yorkshops—probably the .most expensiveFourteen years before the war. wheneverything was so much cheaper, awealthy relative of mine bought hisfruit in Piccadilly, paying 15s for apineapple, the same , per pound forgrapes, os to 7s 6d for grapefruit (thena new fruit known as shaddocks), andwhen absolutely out of season nec-tarines and peaches were a sovereignapiece! Then, to ensure its freshness,he took the fruit 12 mil« out 'of! Lon-don to his home by cab. \V>faile he waspaying these fancy prices?^awkerswere taking their carts round the sub-urbs with strawberries, small but per-fectly sound. 71b. a shilling, oranges40 to 50 a shilling, and plums- 161b. ashilling; so it is misleading - to.Anck-landers to quote the prices in London'smost exclusive fruit shoos. Even if thehawkers charged a shilling for : half apound of strawberries, it is no dearerthan Auckland's price last summer,with so much rain to ruin - them.

PENAL REFORM

Sir,—When sliall *\ye have in thucountry such constructive changes inour penal system as Dr. Malherbe, ofSouth Africa, has lately told us ofthere? When shall we have such asensible attempt to "fit offenders forfreedom," as the director of FederalPrisons in U.S.A. has inaugurated,with a properly qualified and trnired ..

classification committee to examineevery new prisoner and draw up aprogramme for his individual re-education? When shall we have a de-bate on penal matters in our House ofRepresentatives like that in the Houseof Commons in June, 1937," when the -

Home Secretary pointed out that '"thegreatest prison reform is the reformthat keeps people out of prison- alto-gether," asked the House for criticismwhen needed', pointed out. with praise,the efforts of voluntary prison work-ers, took the attitude that "far moreneeded to be done in adopting methodswhich appeal to a prisoner's better in-stincts, and interest* him in thingsthat really matter in the world," andended by asking for cordial co-o(>er3*tion in this work "of great nationalimportance"? What, instead, have wein New Zealand? No proper)v trainedand qualified social and scientific llOl{>"ers, even for our children's courts, ofor our borstals.

SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP

'JUBILEE TROPHY MATCHES

PONSONBY DEFEATS GRAFTON

The senior championship of tho Auck-land Rugby Union was continued onSaturday with the decision of the thirdEeries of matches in tho Jubilee Trophycompetition. Conditions were line, al-though tho grounds were heavy, andtho-majority of tho games were closelycontested-.

A very poor attendance witnessedtho leading attraction at Eden Parkbetween Ponsonby and Grafton, inwhich Ponsonby took better advantageof its opportunities and maintained asounder defence to sccuro a comfort-ablo victory. However, at no stage ofthe game did the teams play like twoof the leading sides in the competition.They were both practically at fullstrength, but the absence of tho vital"Rugby atmosphere" had a maikedlydetrimental effect on the standard ofplay. The broadcast of the Wellington-Springbok match had a very confusingeffect among the spectators, who foundit impossible to follow* both tho broad-cast and the gamo on the oval. In abright curtain-raiser, Hamilton HighSchool secured a thrilling last-minutevictory over Mount Albert GrammarSchool.

At the No. 2 ground, the fast Maristbacks proved too elcvor for Grammarin' the second half. Grammar led atthe interval by 3 points to nil. Col-lege Rifles surprised Manukau at theShow Grounds, the latter team beinga little lucky to escape with a draw.North Shore continued its winning waywith, a convincing display againstTraining College at North Shore, whileOtahuhu secured a runaway victoryover Technical at Sturges Park.

Following wero the results:—Ponsonby, 14 Grafton, 6.Marist, 16; Grammar, 3.Manukau, 5; College Rifles, 5.North Shore, 15; Training College, 6.Otahuhu, 43; Technical, 6.

DISAPPOINTING GAME

PONSONBY SLIGHTLY SUPERIOR

A slight all-round superiority in the for-wards, and sharper penetration among thebacks, enabled Ponsonby to prevail overGraftonin the leading: attraction at EdenPark. It was one of the most disappointingmatches of the season, even more so whenit is considered that the teams were prac-tically at full strength for the greater partof the match.

Frequent mishandling, knocks-on, and ageneral tendency to tackle round the neckinstead of going low, resulting in persist-ently ..scrappy play, were features of a poorexhibition of ftujrby. The teams had an equalFhare of the game territorially, but whileGrafton had almost a monopoly of the ballfrom .the scrums and line-outs, its backstook little advantage of the many oppor-tunities.

The return of IX Solomon to the Pon-sonby backline made- all the difference tothe team's play. While he was not up to hisbrst Torm, Solomon again proved an astntegeneral both on attack and on defence. Inaddition, he was responsible for 11 of hisside's 14 points, by scoring a try, kickingtwo penalty goals and converting anotherfry. Donaldson was not so effective in thesecond five-eighths position as usual, whilethe threequarter line seldom had scoringchances. Frankham played a brilliant gamoat halfback, being dangerous every time hereceived the hall./The. Ponsonby forwards, weakened by the

absence of Bond, the hooker, and F. Solo-mon, creditably, and were led infine style by Knight, who was one of theoutstanding packmen of the game. Evanswas conspicnoiis for his excellent tackling,while Dow, Kerpp and Johnson were alwayson the ball. Sidford was consistently in thethick of the tight work.

In the absence of Pearman, the Graftonfirst five-eighths, Killeen and Prentice playedcloser to the scfum, and Bunting, a for-ward, filled the centre position. The resultWari not a happy combination, chiefly be-catise of the poor play of Prentice. He wasInvariably fast off the mark, but revealedlittle judgment as to what to do with theball when his pathway was blocked. In ad-dition, he tackled poorly. Arkle crave first-class service from the scrum, while Killeenwas in splendid form in the first spell, afterwhich he retired. Dick made the most ofthe opportunities which came his way inthe first half, bnt did not impress at centreafter the interval. Paton played solidly atfullback.

McLean made a reappearance in the Graf-ton pack, but, apart from several of histypical dashes in the open, was obviously*"ejl below his best form. Anderson was out-standing. his excellent service from the line-Outs and fine all-round play marking himas the best forward on the field. Passmorehooked splendidly, while Mabbelt impressedin the loose. iFor Ponsonby D. Solomon and Kempscored fries. Solomon converted ono andkicked two penalty goals. Dick scored twotries for Grafton.

Mr. A. A. Lucas was referee.

FINE LOOSE FORWARDS

MARIST BEATS GRAMMAR

The fine loose play of its forwardsbacked by an unselfish line of backs gavethe Marist fifteen a decisive victory overGrammar in a keenly-fought, match at theEden Park No. 2 ground. Undeterred by adeficit of three points at the interval, Maristsettled down to a match-winning display inthe second spell.

Sound positional play on the part of theGrammar backs nullified early attackingmovements. Although Marist saw more ofthe ball Grammar had the advantage of theexchanges in the first half, in which Maristdefended solidly. Grammar was a littletinlucky not to have scored at least ono moretry.

An experiment which proved quite success-ful was the placing of A. Brown, the Gram-mar forward, on the wing. Brown has dis-played" ability and speed in loose forwardplay this season and his graduation into theback-line has been justified. Revealing manyof the qualities of a good wingman. hisperformances overshadowed that of Flctt,who however, made many fine runs. King,Finlayson and Wagstaff played soundly.

Molloy was responsible for a splendid full-back performance for Marist. He handledfaultlessly, cleared well and combined effec-

lively with his supports. The five-eighths part-nership, C'ooney and Curtayne, formed.,thespearhead of tho attack. Well fed from thoscrum by Irvine, they varied their playcleverly. Bell-Booth often dummied his waythrough when his speed did not allow himto break away, while Logan, at centre, wasseldom caught out of position. Toyo was safeon the wing.

McGrory was prominent in tho loose, butwas inclined to be too aggressive in tho tightwork. McHugh was perhaps the best of thepack. Iladlcy suffered an injury to an ankloearly in tho game,' hut played until late intho second spell when his hooking was seri-ously handicapped and ho retired. Prominentin tho vanguard also wore Bailey, Barry andRosenfeldt. Lockington, Mcßeath, C. Brownand Walton wcro tho best of tho Grammarforwards.

Tries for Marist were scored by Cooney,McGrory and Bell-Booth. Curtayne and Rosen-feldt each converting one, while the latteralso kicked a penalty goal. Grammar's trywas scored by Finlayson.

Mr. J. Gasparich was referee.

IMPROVED FORM

COLLEGE RIFLES ' IMPRESSIVE

A drawn match resulted between Manukauand College Rifles at tho Show Grounds.College Rifles again played ono man short,but showed improved form over last week,pressing its opponents hard. It played withvigour and dash, keeping tho gaino open, butthe superior weight of the Manukau pack,and solid defence prevented several scores.It was only as tho result of a clever backmovement in tho second half that CollegeRifles evened tho scoro, Manukau havingscored in the first spell after a strong burstby L. Schubert.. From the beginning, College Rifles at-tacked, taking tho play nearly to the oppos-ing goal-line, where Barker was pushed outat the corner flag. The ball was returned tothe College Rifles twenty-fivo and thostruggle continued fairly evenly until Middle-ton almost broke the Manukau defence. Thofirst score, however, came to Manukau. Athalfway, Schubert gained possession andweaved his way through the opposition toscoro a pretty try. For the'remainder of thespell Manukau was kept busy defending, asCollege Rifles showed superior form in thelooso. *

In the second half College Rifles again at-tacked with fast, open play. The team handledtho ball well, throwing it about freely andwas very close to crossing Manukau's lineseveral times. Manukau then reasserted itselfand pressed hard with solid forward play.Colleere Rifles lost an opportunity when apenalty kick taken by E. T. Year went alittle wide, but tho team equalised when amovement started by Clapham and continuedby Barker ended in a scoro by Vear. In adesperate effort. Manukau then attackedstrongly. However, although the play was keptin the College Rifles' half, the defence heldand the match ended without any furtherscores.

Schubert's try for Manukau was convertedby J. Anderson. For College Rifles Vearscored and converted a try.

Mr. C. F. Paull was refereo.

CONVINCING VICTORY%

POINTS TO NORTH SHORE .

North Shore definitely established itself asthe most improved fifteen in the seniorchampionship this season by securing itsthird Successive victory in the JubileeTrophy competition in its match againstTraining College at North Shore. Superiorspeed among the backs, a fast, bustling' setof forwards and fine team work were the out-standing: factors in its convincing win.

The same was fast and open throughout,with North Shore consistently on the attack.It was only excellent defensive work byHare, at fullback, which kept the NorthShore team's lead at the interval down tothree points. In the second spell NorthShore had all the better of the play and thefinal result was seldom in doubt.

Given plenty of the ball from the scrumsand line-outs, the winning team's backs paveone of their best displays of the season.Cato sent out well-directed and accuratepasses from the scrum, and Slyfield and .Tes-sup combined excellently at five-eighths. Theformer played an outstanding game. and wasone of the best backs on the field. These twonlayers -were consistently a thorn in the de-fence of the Training Colleee fifteen, fre-quently eainine ground with clever stab-kicks. Marshall played soundly at centre,■while the win<r men. McTCmley and Snralt.made manv fine runs. Pipson was safe atfullback. In the forwards. Casfaing, Exlerand Cunningham were outstanding.

TTare gave another fine display at fall-back for Training College. He was

>

a towerof strength with his fine line-kicking.

_

andsnlendid clearine in the face of the fast I\orthShore forward rnshes. Hamilton, at fiveT

eiorhths, also impressed. Among the forwardsThornton and Hammond were always on the' For North Shore. Marshall (ft). Spratt

and McKinle.v scored tries. Mathieson scoredfor Training College, and Hare kicked apenalty Eoal.

Mr. F. Fry was referee.

OTAHUHU'S BIG WIN

FINE FORWARD PLAY

Although Otahnhu overwhelmed Technicalat Sturges Park, there was not such a marginbetween the two sides as the score indicated.It was chiefly due to the aggression andvigour of the forwards that Otahuhu won,their fast work in the open wearing downand finally rendering the Technical defencealmost negligible. Curiously enough, theTechnical pack secured from most of thescrums, and numerous openings were madefor Bowrey, the half. He frequently succeededin getting good passes away, but the backswere weak. They failed to guage the strengthof the wind and many passes wero interceptedand led the way to scores for Otahuhu.

Byerley, who played at five-eighths, madeseveral fine individual efforts, but lacked sup-port. The fullback, Manning, came through anard afternoon's work with credit, while Cur-rey gave good defensive support until he re-tired with an injury. Once the play becameopen, -the Technical forwards faded and wereoften trailing behind the speedy Otahuhu for-wards. Mate, Apps, Keane and Otto werethe best. ..

Oiahuhu enjoyed the fortunes of theweather,, as in the first spell a strong windbacked their moves, while in the second halfthe breeze eased considerably. After missingseveral penalties from easy positions, Technicallost heart and Otahuhu scored almost at will.Halliwell, the fullback, scored 3 8 of hisside's points and fielded and kicked finely.Movie and Lawson, the half and first five-eignths, wero the outstanding backs, bothrevealing fine penetration. Every forwardshared in the honours, with Bellis and Priestdoing fine work in the line-outs and the open.

Otahuhu points came from tries scored byJones. Moyle (2), Finlay (2), Grant, Nelsonand Halliwell, who converted three and kickedthree penalties, and a field goal by Lawson.Technical's points were scored by Mckenziefrom two penalty kicks.

SECOND SERIES OF MATCHES

NORTH SHORE WINS AGAIN

Fast and interesting Soccer was wit-nessed on Saturday, when the secondseries of games in the senior medalcompetition was decided. Maintainingits improved form, North Shore gavea good display in defeating Ponsonhyin the principal contest at BlandfordPark. Comrades was distinctly unluckynot to down Thistle in the curtain-raiser fixture, whilo Mount AlbertGrammar Old Boys took a close de-cision over Abels at Fowlds Park. Theresults were as follows:—

North Shore, 3; Ponsonby, 0.Old Boys, 4; Abels, 3.Thistlo, 4; Comrades, 3.

SOUND DISPLAY

PONSONBY OUTCLASSED

In spite of heavy conditions at BlandfordPark, the principal game between NorthShore and Ponsonby was played at a fastpace and the youthful North Shore . teamcompletely outclassed the more experiencedPonsonby Bide. Tho absence of Corbett andGerrard was expected to affect tho NorthShore team, but such did not prove the case.Although Innes and F. Blackie were absentfrom the Ponsonby sido. it is 4 doubtfulwhether their presenco would have made anydifference to the confident manner in whichNorth Shoro staged its attacks.

Cameron gavo a sound exhibition in NorthShore's citadel, although the greasy ballmade some of his spectacular clearances veryrisky. While Kimber and West provided astrong defence and broke up many dangerousraids, their accurate clearances were out-standing features. Tho halfback lino playedas a solid unit and broke up many attacks.Cronan in the centre drove the attack re-lentlessly. while his quick recoveries materi-ally assisted his back lino. On the rightSale showed out with clover tackling and,combining well with the front lino, worriedthe Ponsonby defonce. On tho left Chambersshowed to advantage with quick breaking upand long forward passes. T.ho forwards kepttheir positions well and Tidman played likea veteran at centre-forward, distributing thoplay along the line and using direct methodsto harrv the defence. The inside men, Stov-enson and Hnydon, worked hard and mademany openings as well as shooting at. everyopportunity. On the wings C. Blackio onthe right- made many clever runs and spreadthe defence with long cross passes to theopposite wing, where Sime. using his 6peed,heat the defenders to centre or 6hoot withdeadly accuracy.

„Smith had a difficult task in Ponsonby sgoal, and although he was beaten threetimes, he saved the side from a much heavierdefeat. Most of his clearances were wellplaced, but the half-line dallied too much.As individuals Williams and Riggans per-formed well, but the fast-moving North Shoreforwards gave them little room in which toclear. Masters was the pick of a mediocrointermediate line which fell back too muchand had little understanding with its for-wards. Haggett was practically a third backthroughout and a big gap was left ,in thecentre, while C. Ekman roamed too much.Chapman attempted to hold the forwardstogether, but received little support, althoughFarnan showed out in clever movements andmade several openings. On tho right Deanand E. Ekman appeared to have, little un-derstanding. and although the winger ?cntover some good centres, there was "JItie 1tiedanger from this source. Mullane onithe leftwing combined nicely with Farnan and thepair staged nome dangerous raids. Alto-gether the game was ono in.which one sidewaited for the ball, while the other went tomeet it with determination, and the finalscore was somewhat flattering to the losers.

Tidman, Haydon and Sime scored iforNorth Shore.

Mr. R. Webster was referee.

HARD STRUGGLEOLD BOYS SUCCESSFUL

Fowlds Park was in fair condition for thematch between Mount Albert Grammar OldBoys and Abels, and both sides played afast game in which the ball was swung fromwing to wing. Tho half-time score of onegoal each was a good indication of the play.In tho second spell both sides increased theirscores and, in an exciting finish, Old Boyssnatched victory by a last-minute goal.

Birchall gave a brilliant display for Abelsin saving some point-blank shots in thefirst half and dealt well with long-range shotsin the second spell. Neither of the backs wasimpressive, but both produced solid play,with Ross slightly better than T. McCallumin his clearances. The strength of the Abelsteam lay in the middle lino, where Chalmers,although he roved a lot, distributed the ballwell and also defended stoutly. Jones, on theright, showed out better than Alexander onthe left, the latter being inclined to use thocentre too much. For most of the game A.McCallum was in the centre-forward berth,and he distributed the play to advantage.Later when Robinson went to centre and Mc-Leav to the wing, McCallum gave a sounddisplay at inside right. Robinson was the out-standing forward, making nico runs downthe wing and cleverly evading the Old Boys'defence to send over some accurate passes.McLeay at inside right worked hard through-out and made many openings for both thowinger and the centre. Hamilton and Kaycombined nicely in the first spell, but thoymet with a strong defence.

Gavan had a hard line to deal with andimpressed with his clearances, which gener-ally found an unmarked Old Boys' player.BlockJey and Speed were efficient andsmothered many dangerous attacks. In thoclosing stages, when Abels maintained analmost continuous attack, they got thr&ugha lot of sound work, ably assisted by Ward.Horrocks broke np many dangerous attacksand with judicious passes to his front linegave a sound exhibition. Mansfield had diffi-culty in holding the Abels right , wing, butgavo a creditable display. Better combinationwas seen in the forward line, with Jepsondistributing the play nicely. On tho rightNeedham made several nico runs down thewing, but was inclined to hold the "ball toolong before centring. Woodhall showed im-provement in his constructive play and madesoveral good openings for the winger andcentre. On the left Fyvie forsook his indi-vidual play and combined well with "\yoodson the wing and they were always dangerous.On the run of the play Abels was un-lucky to lose. A draw would have been abetter indication of tho merits of the teams.

Jenson (2), Woodhall and Woods scoredfor Mount Albert Grammar Old Boys, whiloKay, Robinson and A. McCallum netted forAbels.

Mr. G. C. Edwards was referee.

COMRADES UNLUCKYTHISTLE'S NARROW DECISION

After having established a lead of threeeoala at the interval, Comrades appeared tohave the measure of Thistle in tho curtain-raiser at Blandford Park on Saturday, buttho latter toam staged a fino recovery tosnatch a narrow victory. Two decisions givenby the referee during the closing stagesaroused tho spectators, a number of whomevidently considered Comrades very unluckyto lose. In the first instance, tho Comradesgoalkeper in meeting a charge by a Thistloforward was ruled by the refereo to havecrossed tho goal lino with the ball and agoal was awarded. Later, a Comrades forwardscored, but was ruled offsitlp.

Nevertheless, tho Thistlo toam was to bocongratulated on its fine ■ recovery. Thewinners found the fast and cffcctivo forwardattack of Comrades a source of worry. ThoThistle backs concentrated for the greaterpart of the first spell on defensive.maesures,with- the result that their vanguard did notreceivo sufficient support. More initiative wasshown by tho Thistlo halves in tho secondspell. Stone was ail outstanding member intho Thistlo dofenco. Ho covered his goalcleverly and kicked with judgment. Welch,Watson and Constablo did not have muchunderstanding during the early stages, butthey later established a fairly good combina-tion. Angus was the spearhead of tho attack,his vigorous methods giving tho opposingbacks many anxious moments. It was mostlyduo to his initiativo that Thistlo finished intho lend. Wood and Caisley also playedattractively.

The Comrades sido had a dependable backlino in Saunders and McKenna, both ofwhom inspired confidence with their suretackling and accurate kicking. Thoy workedin nice harmony with Hooton, who was thooutstanding player in the middle division.Hooton repulsed many raids and wan thodirecting force behind most of his team'sattacks. Fletcher also played a good gamo,assisting his forwards with well-judgedpasses. In a lively forward line Carter stoodout for fast running and good centring. Mar-vin and A. Francis showed neat control nndquick footwork and assisted In driving homoseveral attacks.

Goals were scored for Thistlo by Angus(3) and Wood, whilo Marvin, A. Francis andC. Hayward netted for the losers.

Mr. E. Williams was referee.

WAIKATO CHAMPIONSHIPS

AMATEUR TITLES DECIDED[from our own correspondent]

HAMILTON, SundayThere was a good attendance last

night at the Theatre Royal, Hamilton,where the Waikato amateur boxingchampionships werq held under thecontrol of the Hamilton Boxing Asso-ciation. The elimination bouts werestaged in the afternoon and the semi-finals and finals in the evening. Somebright bouts were witnessed and theboxing was of a high standard.

The most outstanding boxers of thecontest wero B. McKay, Auckland,who was presented with the cup for'tlio most scientific fighter of the even-ing, W. Purdie, the Now Zealandwelter-weight champion, and V. Cal-taux, also of Auckland. 0. Elliot,Frankton. J. Beaton, Waikino, and E.Adams, Te Awamutu, also performedvery creditably.

A bout which waa particularly appreciatedby tlio spectators was the paper-weight con-test between N. Wakefield, Auckland, andM. Patcrson, Frankton. Wakefield surprisedhis opponent and delighted the crowd byspringing straight from his corner andquickly landing some good punches. Pater-son, who possesses a good, hard punch, ral-lied, and effected some telling hits, but lielacked tho superior footwork of his opponent.

Another fine bout was the final of thobantam-weight championship between H.Sheridan, Auckland, and 1. Clarko, trank-ton. Clarke appeared in tho early stages tohave tho advantage, but Sheridan displayeda line knowledge of ringcraft. He allowedClarko to attack until, apparently becomingovor-confklont, he dropped his guard, andSheridan, leading with a left to Clarkesjaw, put him down for the count. D. J.Craig, To Awamutu, proved himself a goodfighter, but could not make tho grado in hisbout against J. Duncan, Frankton, holder oftho South Auckland light-weight title.

J. Beaton, of Waikino. stood up well totho Auckland boxer, V. Cultaix, in tho finalor the middleweight class. Caltaux attackedfrom the first, but Beaton, although he tooka lot of punishment, did not let his opponentoff lightly. Tho end of the second roundfound Beaton down for tho count of five.Beaton returned in the final round with re-newed vigour, and for a short time more thanhold his own, but Caltaux concluded the boutby knocking Beaton out under the ropes fortho count. Tho heavy-weight bout, ended intho second round, when, with a nicely-timedstraight left. W. Goodwin, To Mata, downedB. Fisher. Frankton, for the count. Ihofeather-weight bout between B. McKay andE. Black, both of Auckland, was also a goodcontest, McKay being slightly more scien-tific than his sturdy, hard-hitting opponent.McKay won on points.

HOCKEYCHAMPIONSHIP GAMES

MATCHES AT REMUERA

SOMERVILLE RETAINS LEADTho senior championship of tho Auck-

land Hockey Association was continuedat the Remuera grounds on Saturday.Although the play did not reach a par-ticularly high standard, several excit-ing contests were witnessed.

Somervillo retained tho leadershipby defeating Papatoetoe, wliilo Uni-versity easily accounted for Y.M.C.A.In spite of tho fact that Mount Edenhas been very successful in . recentgames, it was easily beaten by St.Luke's. Grammar had tho byo.

The results Avero as follows:Somervillo, 5; Papatoctoe, 2.St. Luke's, 7; Mount Eden, 1.University, 7; Y.M.C.A., 2.

SOMERVILLE SUPERIOR

PAPATOETOE DEFEATED

Without producing spectacular hockey,, thogame between Somervillo and Papatootoooccasionally resulted'in exciting play. Som-ervillo was the hotter team, and deserved itswin, although tho score is hardly a fairindication of the gamo.

' fapatoetoe was unfortunate with thoabsenco of Bores in tho first half, and therctiromont of Airoy with an.injury. Further.Lusby deflected tho ball into his own' goalon one occasion. Apart from this, however,tho sido did not combino Quite as well asSomorvillo. ...

Tho first half was very oven with bothteams losing opportunities mainly througha tendency to crowd together. Central at-tacks woro more numerous than wing move-ments, which would probably have beenmore successful. Following a series of at-tacks Somerville opened tho score whenCooper succeeded. Soon afterward, Papatoetoeequalised when Torbott,, who. had been con-spicuous with McCorraick in 6overai finemovements, scored from a scramble.

After the intorval Papatootoo had a fullteam, but Airoy, who had been keeping goalexceptionally well, was forced to retire.After that Somervillo hold tho upper handand harried the Papatoetoe defenco inces-santly to win easily.

Messrs. McLean and Maxwell woro thoumpires.

DECISIVE VICTORY

WIN FOR ST. LUKE'S

It was not expected that tho gamo be-tween St. Luke's and Mount Eden wouldresult in such a decisivo win for tho former.The game was solid rather than brilliant.

St. Luke's fully deserved to win; it dis-played hotter understanding between its for-ward and half lines, whilo its defence wasalso sounder. Mount Eden did not play inthe robust manner which, on similar grounds,has brought it success in its recont games.Through hitting too hard, tho team lostmany chances.

The play in the first half was very even.Soon after the commencement Mount Edenattacked strongly and following a melee inthe St. Luke's circle, Jenkin netted. St.Luke's used both its wings to advantage, andfrequently gained territory when Fenton,on the right,'and'Doel, on the loft, receivedtho ball. Before tho interval St. Lukesscored twice, while Mount Eden had beenunlucky not to ' score on several occasions.

Immediately after the interval MountEden attacked, but the St. Lukes defenceheld, and play worked down to the MountEden twenty-five. St. Luke s was then clearlysuperior, Vipond, at centre, playing well,while his wingmen were combining wellwith their supports. T. Clark, centre half,distributed the ball well.

St. Lukes scorers were vipond (4),. Car-roll. Doel and Alexander.

Messrs Maxwell and Skinner wore thoumpires.

UNEXCITING PLAY

Y.M.C.A. DEFENCE WEAK

In tho opening stages of the gamo be-tween University and Y.M.C.A. the latterteam made a good 'showing. 'Without beingscrappy, tho game was soldom exciting.

Including four second grade players, Uni-versity did not combine as well as it hasin previous matches. Fine determination,however, proved too much for its opponent*and after its early reverse, tho Universityside quickly settled down.

Y M.C.A. showed fine early combination,but 'in the second half tho passing wentastray, resulting in several good movementsbreaking down. Tasker on tho right forY.M.CJV. mado some penetrativ-o runs, whileAndrews was also prominent. Cawkwell wasinjured at this stage. ilson replacing him3 Both

)a<sides made spasmodic attacks in

the second spell, but hard hitting in mostcases spoilt the movement*. Campbell, theY M.C.A. goalkeeper, and Henderson in tileopposing goal, often kicked several shotsclear University, however, had just thebetter of the play through better under-standing. Toward the closing stages the Uni-versity forwards took command, and put thefinal result beyond doubt.

Messrs. Speight and Lawry wero the um-pires.

KING HIGGINSBy CAPTAIN FRANK H. SHAW

Author of "Winged Youth." "The Stedfast Way," etc.

CHAPTER XI"in a week's time—"

Dick Higgins restrained the impulseto report his discovery to the Chief ofPolice in San Josef, for more reasonsthan one. In-the-the first placo, it wason the cards that the jungle hut mightbo outside the great man's jurisdiction:and Latin jealousies can flame up in-to considerable fires when the spark isonce kindled. Secondly, Dickie wond-ered, through long hours in deep think-ing, if it might not be up to him inconsiderablo measure, to forestall, orat least check, any internal troublethat might arise.

The Higgins' stock would stand highin the public mind, he felt, if ho couldclap a stopper on any suggested rising.Further, it was the Higgins' develop-ment of the country that was mostjeopardised by Lafallette's presumedactivities. The more ho pondered, themore did ho become convinced that thefuture welfaro of Hiyatala was in hisown hands. So far as the general popu-lation was concerned, it hardly mat-tered who held tho reins of office—inthe meantime, at all events. The peonworked or loafed equally under thisautocrat or that, and once a new re-gime was adopted, things went onmuch the same as usual. True, the ex-citement of an uprising brought a re-lief to otherwise monotonous exist-ences; and just as overy private soldierof Napoleon's armies was believed tocarry a field marshal's baton in hisknapsack, so might any peon of themall dream of preferment to the Presi-dential chair. Neighbouring republicsboasted of head executives who hadlifted themselves from the deepest ob-scurity to eminence; why not, then,tho Hiyatalan? Revolution was thecommon man's opportunity if not ofgreatness, at least of a littlo loot andthe paying off of private scores.It is true that Dickie did make one

or two tentative overtures to this exe-cutive and that; ho also resumed hisattack on Don Enrico's satisfied com-placency; but lie had a feeling all thetime that his hints were merely neglig-ible drops of water falling on an adam-antine rock.

So that, really, there was little todo, save content himself with the dailyround and the common task. Thisbrought him into touch with Dolores,who seemed to his infatuated eyes togrow more beautiful and desirableevery day. And 'he was very oftenbrought up with a round turn in hisprofound cogitations on the future ofthis fractious yet entirely lovablecountry, by the wonder as to whetherit was not that lie loved Dolores ratherthan Hiyatala that made him so de-termined to spike Lafallette's guns.

He was eminently fairminded. Thisgirl had got under his skin to an un-believable extent. Vainly he told him-self that the sea held even better fishthan any ever snatched from its im-mensity; the fact remained, limned inbold outlines, that Dolores Falleirowas the one woman of them all whomhe most coveted.

As for the girl, she was neither hotnor cold, only tantalising. By commonconsent the subject of Lafallette wasruled out of their talks: that way laytrouble. And the intending Dictatordid not intrude a great deal into thepublic life of the city—an ominous sign,Dickie began to think, as showingthat his activities in organisation wereon the increase. But Lafallette's namewas cryptically mentioned hero andthere; much as, the Consul surmised,Prince Charlie's name had been spokenin Jacobite circles before the '45.

Dolores indeed, on occasion, showedDickie greater favour than during pre-vious days. It was only the mentionof Lnfallotte's name that aroused hertemper—and it was quite a prettytemper when exploded I—so1—so that KingHiggins decided to follow the line ofleast resistance and taboo the fellowreligiously. Once that was done, lifewas a moderately decent proposition.

Then the s.s. Tarragona arrived atSan Josef: and when Captain FredBarker mado his number at the Con-sulate, Dick Higgins decided that heliked him.

Young Barker took life far lessseriously than his older brother of themailboat service; ho was in his firstcommand and apt to forget at timesthat ho was no longer a carefree boy.Ho was enthusiastic over his ship, asa good shipmaster should be.,

" 'Course, she's only a freighter,sir," he admitted, enjoying a glass ofDickie's prime Madeira; " but she'spretty fine. I'd bo honoured if you'dbreakfast aboard with me one daypretty soon."

"Delighted! I promised yourbrother I'd keep an eve on you. We'llhave a party, and invite some prettygirls; show you the worth-while sights,Barker. Your first trip here, isn't it?"

Dickie visited the Tarragona, andwas shown over her as if she were thelatest typo of super-battleship. She wasoil-fired and clean as a new pin, thoughugly with the stark ugliness of theeconomical, commercial tramp. Still,young Barker did the honours of theeleven o'clock breakfast quite grace-fully.

" Got to make the best of things; wewon't be in port again for longenough,", he admitted. "Not whatyou'd call port, anyway, Mr. Higgins;it's going to be a case of sculling roundthe Pacific Islands to see what we canpick up, freights being what they are.We were lucky to have a packet offreight for this spot. It's a mighty in-teresting place, San Josef."

There were infrequent earth tremors,an the plume, of smoke that now dailycrested stark Monte Callano, showed atendency to increase both in size anddensity; but the sight had now grownso common that few people took seriousnotice of it. .Apparently the volcano,newly-awakened, was still drowsy, andtlio betting in the clubs was that aserious eruption would not take place.

The world was blowing off a little sur-plus steam—that was all.

Yet the "Doctor" had practicallyceased to blow its healing airs downthe valleys to tonic the city; and theunnatural close heat persisted tena-ciously. For days at a time the greypall of cloud obscured what was norm-ally a brilliant sky. and the swell beatclamorously against the rock coast;entering the harbour that deep-breastedmovement of the sea caused slight dis-turbances among the moored shipping.

Dickie invited tlio Fallcirns andBarker to dinner at the Consulate;asked Dolores to find a Kir] of her ac-quaintance with whom Fred Barkercould dance. Captain Barker's mouthopened slightly when ho first metDolores; ho looked from hor radiantface to Dickie's, and what he read inthe latter—though young, lie was ob-servant—caused his jaws to close witha snap. Donna Klenora was particularlykittenish that evening, to her placidhusband's tolerant amusement; by con-trast with her Dolores was sedate. Theother girl, Juauita Ollnreho, was n dee])brunette, obviously chosen by Doloresas a contrast: and to some extent inawe of the company among which shefound herself. But it was she who threwFerdinando Lufallette into the conver-sation ns a bone is thrown among apack of previously peaceful hounds

"He is adorable," she tittered, whileDickie suddenly was attacked with a

crazy desire to strangle or spank her."Ho reminds us all of one of the earlyConquistadores—a second Pizarro."

"In search of an empire, too, thatone!" grunted Don Enrico casually."Well he won't find it in Hiyatala; wedo well enough as we are."

"There is not a young woman in thecity who is not in love with him," saidJuanita, delighted to find herself at-tracting attention.

"Therefore every young man mustdetest him," snapped Dickie, watchingDolores' face, whose every expression heflattered himself ho could read as ifunder a psychological microscope.

"On the contrary!" contradictedJuanita. "Ho is also attractive to men;ho is a sort of figure hewn from theheroic."

"If that young fool creates any moredisturbances he will be politely invitedto take the next ship away from SanJosef," said Don Enrico. "Tho Govern-ment has no wish to take a hotheadseriously; but— *'

"How about moving on to theSuperba?" Dickie suggested ratherhastily. "Unless tho ladies consider ittoo hot for dancing."

"It is never too hot • for dancing,"said Juanita; "now that wo senoritasare allowed to dance in public. To think,that less than a year ago, Ave were notpermitted to call our souls our own;now—and it is thanks to Dolores in themain—we can blow our own noses with-out parental supervision. I would givea year to dance with Don Ferdinando."

Hang the fellow! Dickie thought;hang him as high as Hainan! He wascrafty: securing feminine interest sothat tho senoritas would persuade theircavaliers to support him! Tho young,volcanic studpnt body of the city werea force to be reckoned with, as previ-ous revolutions had shown. They hadno background and were prone to followsuch as shouted loudest and promisedmost. And all the students had brothersor cousins in the National Guard; forconscription held in Hiyatala, andevery man must do his military ser-vice irrespective of his rank.

But, to sootho the Consul's ire,Dolores was particularly gracious tohim at the Superba. Fortunately thedancing floor was full, and numerous ac-quaintances of the Falleiros were pre-sent, so that Donna Elenora did notoccupy too much of Dickie's time; more-over, Fred Barker, like most young-sters. favoured the older lady's ripercharms in preference to Juanita's super-ficial prettiness. As if what.the brunettehad said of Lafallette's charm had beena challenge to his own quality, DickHiggins deliberately set himself outto draw Dolores' notice; and succeededso well that she, leaning her fair andgraceful head back to look into hisface, said:

"You know, Don Dickie, if I hadn'tgiven all my heart to Ferdinando, Imight have found a corner of it for you—in a daughterly way!"

"Daughterly!" fumed Dickie."When you look like that you seem

almost young!" she mocked; "but thenI know the truth; when I was just atiny nina you were a grave reverentseigneur, is it not so?"

"If you hadn't been bewitched bythat—that—by the oxcellent SenorLafallette," almost roared Dickie, "I'd—l'd "

"Spank me?""No, force you to love me the way

that I love you!" he found himself say-ing.

"Ah! No woman was ever forced intolove, Don Dickie; we fall in headlongand lose our heads. Have you forgottenthe Many Flowers and—everything?"

"Don Ferdinando is, of course, ador-able," grated Dickie through set teeth."And when the time is ripe you may besure I shall be among the first to offerhim a wedding present—as Emperor ofCentral America!"

"Dickie, don't be jealous!" shelaughed. "If there is one thing I hateabove another it is a dog in themanger."

"Still set on marrying him?" hegrated, dancing perfectly in spite of theindignation thnt coursed through everyfibre.

"If only he considers me great enough—afterwards," she retorted, femininelycruel in a moment; her claws out,.wishful to inflict pain. And for onceHiggins' nonchalance deserted him; theNordic restraint which had made himsuccessful and admired in a countrywhere emotions rule more often thannot, burst its bonds.. "If it's a proper quarrel you want,have it!" he blazed. His hold of hertightened oppressively. "Keep your in-fernal windbag and make the best ofhim!"

"Is it for you to dictate, King Hig-gins?" she asked impudently, as if un-able to take him seriously. "Oh, I amnot a fool, although a woman. Why willyou old men think that women to-dayhave no brains or reasoning powers?"

"Have they?" Ho realised that hewas overstepping the boundaries;Dolores' eyes were blazing, colour rosein her cheeks. "All I know about any-thing is that 1 love you, and feel likemurdering you!"

"Now Ferdinando wants to put me ina niche like a saint, and worship mefrom his lower level," she mocked."You don't love me one little bit, DonDickie—not in the way I expect to beloved."

"Well would your famous Dictatorforego his ambitions for your sake?"Dickie sneered, hating himself for hissheer brutality, yet impelled by the un-reason of his love to hurt and hurtagain.

"If ho sacrificed one single ambitionI should hate him—hate him!" sheflashed. The incredible weather had sud-denly set her nervos on edge. Dickierecognised it, and felt ashamed, know-ing how his own temper had gained themastery. "But ho will not. Do you hear,he will not. As you will see in a Aveek'stime "

instantly Dickie was cool as iceagain.

"That is to say—"stammered Dolores"as you will see ono day or other."

"I've got to pretend I didn't hearthat," Dickie thought and exercised hisentire self-control. Since to alter hismanner must have shown ho had ac-cepted her unconscious statement, hesaid: "Dictators and kings and suchhave a trick of forgetting old promisesonce ambition is realised."

"It's because you fear Ferdinando,"she whipped back at him. "You whohave ruled like a little tin god "

"You've probably borrowed that fromSenor Lafallette," said Dickie. "Youare too newly back to know what I door don't do."

"It is common report—King Higgins,King Higgins! Bah; you think themoney you have caused to bo investedin Hiyatala gives a right to you to im-pose your will on free Hiyatalans!"

"Well, at all ovents, I did get thecasli invested, my dear spitfire."

The cessation of music interruptedthat dynamic quarrel. It was just aswell, perhaps, for Dolores, in spite ofher assumption of Northern aplomb,was oil the verge, it appeared, ofhysteria. The orchestra claimed an in-terval for refreshments; the party re-assembled at its table.,-Further inti-mate talk being out of the question,Dolores and Dickie contented them-selves with glaring hostilely at one an-other; and all the time, behind themask of his frown, Dick Higgins wasthinking:

"You rabid little angel; so it's for aweek hence, is it? All right: fore-warned is forearmed." It was not quitecricket, as he understood the game, totake advantage of a girl's lost temper;but what was pending was perilousljlike war, in which all things are fair.
