That is Francelia Billington, who with Madge Bellamy, John Bowers, Hal «Cooley and eight other _ wellâ€"known players, shares the histronic burden of this powerful and thrilling screen draâ€" ma by Harold Shumate. This young photoplaywright, who has made amazing progress in pictures since ‘"The White Sin" was accepted and brought him to fame, was naturâ€" ally interested in Miss Billington‘s criticism of his story. Her criticism proved most favorable. The charming writerâ€"critic declares that Mr. Shuâ€" mate‘s story will be certain to delight the men of the audiences which view . it, because of its fine humanness and sentiment, and its quality of logic. }Snl; it is the women whom she expects to enjoy it even more, because it deâ€" picts the adventures and problemsâ€"of a modern young women, the same proâ€" blem that confronts literally thousands of madernyoung women, â€"in~ aâ€"startâ€" lingly new, daring way.

"It is an extensive._policy to spend money for immigration purposes _ to repopulate our rural sections, â€"knowâ€" ing that only a small percentage will make rural assets, when at the same time we drive trained agriculturtists out of business by an unfair tariff policy.

QUEBEC PLANS TO STOP BOOZE SMUGGLING "This will not make dear Canadian produce because idle rcres and outâ€"ofâ€" work gardeners, and we have hoth to spare, would be put to work if we were allowed to develop our home market, and a competitive supply of goods would always be on the market at a fair profit above the cost of proâ€" duction. f "We believe that a tariff appraised on southern and western â€" vegetables from the United States on the per invoiced pound basis would overcome all these evils. "There could be no evasion of proâ€" per value on the part of exporter of importer. Semiâ€"decayed produce would be taxed if placed on our market and this practice would ‘be. discouraged. The dumping of goods from _glutted markets would be lessened as the home value of the goods from the point of shipment, so difficult for the custom house official to determine, would not count.

Helps the States "If the main idea in Canadian minds is to help the southern producer . to market his abundant crop, the laws are apparently right, as they now stand, but if Canadian markets for Canadian produce, and Canadian dollars for Caâ€"; nadian industry is our aim, our transâ€" ferring of gold to southern growers with but very little revenue received‘ from the same would seem absurd. _ "We say that the valuation placed on the invoice price of a product proâ€" duced under semiâ€"tropical conditions by Negro, Mexican and Japanese labor is no protection to us, and affords the country little revenue. "We ask a duty on imported vegeâ€" tables because the revenue thus colâ€" lected relieves us of burdensome taxes, and is paid by those who camn afford to indulge epicurean appetites _ with out of season produce.

And that something else was always the latest importation from the States. made is that, on account of the lack of suitable tariff protection under the present regulations, great quantities of vegetables cross into Ontario from the States and flood the local market beâ€" fore the local dealers are able to put their produce before the public. . It was felt that the position of the Onâ€" tario yegetable growers was a, particâ€" ularly difficult one, and that, owing to the difference in climate, there is nothing the local men can do to offset conditions. On account of the fact that the season in the ‘Southern â€" States was much in advance of that in Onâ€" tario, the American growers were able to perfect their crops and throw them on the local market long before the homeâ€"grown article was fit for conâ€" sumption, and the net result was that by the time the Ontario product was ready, the appetite of the public had An appeal for adequate tariff proâ€" tection for the vegetable growers of this Province,, which would enable them to retain the home markét for theâ€"sale of homeâ€"raised vegetables, was made yesterday at the annual meeting of the Ontario Vegetable Growers‘ Asâ€" sociation, and a general resolution to this effect was endorsed by the vepeâ€" table growers as a body.
