Commander- Kahr, the Military Dicta< Bavaria, had just finished ad- a patriotic manifestation in rau on Thursday, when ) entersd at the head of 600 men. y unced that the Govern- ent had been overthrown and was re- | by a new Government, with Ludendo®f as supreme head and as political adviser. Ludendorff, who was present, spoke after Hitler, and placed himself "at the disposal of the national German 'Government, and avowed his willing- ness to lead the national German army. Ludendorff was greeted with wild cheers. Armed Hitlerites occupy the prin- cipal Munich squares, the State police occupy the Munich main telegraph office. Incidentally, Hitler proclaimed a march on Berlin and a crusade for ad-| has been named as Administrator of the 'establishment: of a ational Reich Government. Former Chief of Police von Pohner the country, and General von Lossow 'Minister of War. After Hitler's declaration his troops drew a cordon around the Burger- brau. About 10 o'clock Thursday night troops of Oberland dnd Empire flag organizations concentrated on the Burgerbrau and occupied different quarters of the city, chiefly the squares. Conferences are being held within the Burgerbrau, and it is reported that Dr. von Kahr is attempting to negotiate a settlement with Hitler. The attitude of the police and the, Reichswehr has not yet been disclosed, Those who gathered in the Burger- brau, which is a famous Bavarian beer cellar, were members of Nation- alist patriotic organizations, to whom Dr. von Kahr read a manifesto to the German nation denouncing the prin- ciples of Marxism. The reading of the manifesto was greeted with ap-, plause, and Hitler's sudden entry with strong forces was something in the nature of a dramatic surprise. | NET RESULTS OF IMPERIAL PARLEY Dominions' Right to Make Treaties Chief Constitu- tional Gain. A despatch from London says:-- Another Imperial Conference has passed into history. The Economic Conference meets again on Friday for the consideration of wireless com- munications, but its proceedings will probably be brief. For all practical purposes both conferences have con- cluded their labors. It has been six weeks of constant consultations, com- mittees, conferences and speeches. What has been the result? Not until Sunday will the official text of the resolutions be issued, but it may be forecast that they will not indicate any organic change in sonstitutional relations; in fact no constitutional proposals of a sweeping nature ap- pear to have been brought forward at all. ""In"matters of foreign policy there is no change in the existing machinery. As seen from the Canadian point of _ view the results of the Conference are summed up by a member of the Can- adian delegation as follows: 1. A much clearer understanding of the Canadian position as to Imperial relations. 2. Recognition of equality and inde- pendent initiative in matters peculiar to one part of the Empire coupled with willingness. to co-operate in mat- ters of common concern. 8. The clearing up of the present "position of the Dominions in" respect to making treaties with the unani- mous understanding reached along the lines adopted by the Canadian Govern- ments from the treaty of Versailles to the Halibut Treaty. 4. Recognition by the Admiralty for 'the first time of the principles of Do- Minion navies, MOTHER COUNTRY 10 FERENCE TO VARIOUS A despatch from London says:-- The British Government is prepared to widen the scope of its offer of Im- rial tariff preference. = At the 'Econemic Conference Sir Philip Lloyd- QGreame, president of the Board of M'rade, intimated that in addition to 'the list already submitted, the British Government was prepared to give tariff preference on fresh apples, can- ned salmon, fruit juices and honey. In ~ each case the British Government pro- poses to impose a new duty when these . products are imported from foreign countries and admit them free when jported from countries within the pire. The proposals are: Fresh Apples--Dutiable at five shil- per hundredweight when import- from foreign countries. Empire les free, anned salmon--Foreign imports be dutlable at ten shillings per idredwelght. Empire imports free. uit Julees--Foreign imports to be inble at six pence per gallon: Em e imports free. DOMINION PRODUCTS DIDJA KNOW TAT : SEEKS BONAR LAW'S SEAT Winston Churchill, who, it is an- stituency left vacant by the death of Andrew Bonar Law. He is anxious to get back to the House of Commons. of each part of the Empire for its own defence. 6. Recognition that it is for the Parliament and people of each part of the Empire to decide on the measure of its own defence preparations. These concern the main conference. In the Economic Conference the chief gains to Canada lie in increased pref- erence, in the probability that as a re- sult of the Conference discussions Canadian ships trading to Great Bri- tain will be freed from British taxa- tion on.profits made here, and further in the probable concessions by the British Government in the administra- tion of regulations under which Can- adian cattle are admitted. tf ntsmsni The great source of pleasure is variety. The Chinese consider red a lucky color. GIVE TARIFF PRE- Honey--Foreign imports to be duti- able at ten shillings per hundred- weight. Empire imports free. The offer also to unmanufac- tured tobacco." The original British proposals on unmanufactured tobacco offered as alternatives either the stab- ilization of the existing preference or an increase in preference from one- sixth to one-fourth. The various do- minions affected, however, prefer the increased instead of the stabilized preference and the British Govern- ment intimated its intention to bring down legislation increasing the pref- erential duty accordingly. Legislation is to be introduced also to give effect to the remainder of the British offer. The preference to be given canned salmon and apples is particularly welcome by the Canadian delegates. They feel it Will be a great stimulus to apple growers throughout the Do- minion as well as encouragement. to the salmon canneries on the Pacific Coast, whose products are to enter the British market free, while the Toreigy ; nounced, will seek election in the con- | WHERE A KING IS PRISONBR The 'palace of the monarchs of Greece, in Athens, where King George. is being held virtually a prisoner until the country decides whether it will allow him to rule or substitute a president and inaugurate a republic, I Natural Resources Bulletin. The Natural Resources Intel- ligence Service of the Depart- ment of the Interior at Ottawa, says: The interest of one province in the natural resources of an- other is very clearly illustrated in the dependence of the tele- phone service throughout Can- ada upon the forests of British Columbia. A recent report by the Do- minion Bureau of Statistics gives the number of pole miles of the telephone service alone in Canada as 184,147. Of this total but 2,102 miles is in Bri- tish Columbia, Ontario having 47,176 miles, Quebec 18,456, and the Prairie Provinces 108,733 miles. The telephone poles for this huge mileage are practical- ly all taken from the forests of the Pacific province, each pole representing one cedar tree. As approximately 40 poles are re- quired per pole mile, the 184, 147 miles would require 7,365, 880 cedar trees to provide tele- phone service. It will readily be seen, therefore, that when a forest fire attacks a British Columbia forest Ontario is di- rectly interested in the timber that is being burned. { I I z i Will Inform Dominions on Aviation Progress A despatch from London says:-- Empire air communication was dis- cussed at the Economic Conference and it was decided that the British Government should undertake to in- form the Dominons and India of pres- ent and prospective air performances, both of gas and heavier-than-air craft. The home Government is to keep the Dominions supplied with up-to-date information on all aviation subjects, as well as all the details of the pro- gress of the Burney airship scheme, which provides for an Eeopire Service from Lofrdon. tt----m-------- Survivors of Earthquake and Fire Seeking Life Mates A despatch from Tokio says:-- Matrimonial agencies which survived the earthquake and fire are being flooded with applications for husbands and wives. Among the female ap- plicants are hundreds of widows anxi- ous to find life companions who will care for them and their children. Hun- dreds of girls, hardly 156 years old, who lost all their relatives in the dis- aster, have applied.
