The I. W.W. claimed the strike was gain- ing momentum and that additional wen would join approximately 4,- 000 who le#t their jobs Wednesday. Operators reported more men were at work than Wednesday in the southern fields. Meanwhile, Thomas chairman of the Colorado indus- trial commission, announced at Walsonburg that he would leave for the northern fields to insist that the strikems obey the law against picketing. 4Annear said he would at- tempt to si the men their walk- out was illegal, and to persuade them to return to work. The industrial cqgmmission oon- tends the 30-day notice of strikes. Annear, given by miners in the northern fields, A notice was filed in the { | | REVIEWS WORK ~~ IN SAAR VALLEY Major G. W. Stephens Ad dresses Canadian So- ciety in New York UNIQUE VENTURE Most Remarkable Experi- ment in Government, De- clares Speaker New York, Oet, 25.--Canada has her place in the evolution of the world, declared Major George Wash- ington Stephens of Montreal, in re- viewing the four years he served | as president of the Saar Valley gov-] erning commission created by the! Treaty .of Versaillqs, at a dinner given by the Canadian Society of New York, here Wednesday night. Major Stephens described the Saar' commission as the most remarkable | experiment in government in the history of the world. Consisting of representatives si rive countries in- cluding France and Germany, Major Stephens said the commission's exise tence was based on the fact inat| the allied powers desired to recoup France for the coal destroyed by the flooding of the mines in North- | ern France during the Great War. | The Saar Valley, an integral part; of Germany, with an estimated coal supply of 16,000,000 tons, will pe governed by the commission for 15 years, | The speaker paid a tribute to ex- | | Mayor R. D. Waugh, of Winnipeg, whom he succeeded as the Canad- jan commissioner in 1923. When he arrived in the territory and was appointed president of the com- mission to succeed the French pre-, sident he said he read himself into the life of -the Saar Valley and in- stituted a policy of "the open door." and "a fair deal for the rights or the Saar people and the rights of France." No Other Aim He had no other aim of duty, al- though he was ctiticized because some people thought he was lower- ing the dignity of the governing commission, whose previous policy he said, was '"'monparchistic" How- ever, he said, he was proud to get into contact with the people and get the facts. He described the chaotic condi- tions resulting from the use of Ger- man and French currency and the switch to French currency ural resources, pafr- ticularly th& forests, and described the five-year period of sufferiug experienced by the people on ac- count of food shortage, during which time synthetic food was their chief diet. The food situation was now normal, he said. "I think I left the fair mame of conserving the people of the Saar Valley," Ma- jor Stephens said. "Certainly the prestige of Canada was not spoiled by the establishment of thé open door and fair deal policy." He praised the League of Nations as an instrument of world peace, born--international co-operation. BANQUET AT AYR Ayr. Oct. 24--The annual men's banquet of Knox United Church was held this evening, with nearly 200 men of the community in attend- ance. Rev. J. A. Tuer of College Street United Church, Toronto, gave the first address, his sublect beine: "Phe Chureh's Task." Oliver Her zlewood of Toronto, speaking as a layman, discussed "The Work and Wagd of the Church." Rev. J. R.

In the northern lighite fleias mining operations were at a stand- #till, with virtually every miner in the district heeding the I.W.W, call. Calm prevailed in the strike terri- tory. SEARCH STILL CONTINUES FOR BODIES OF TORONTO MEN Midland, Oct. 24.--Darkness tonight again forced a suspension of the drag- ging operations in -a search for the bodies of the three Toronto men, Frank Mason, Fred Davis and Leonard Terry, drowned when their launch burned near Victoria Harbor on Sat- urday, and no trace of the bodies has been found. There are heavy weed- beds in this particular section, and this necessitates the lifting of the dragging hooks for clearing very fre- quently. It is also stated that there are heavy under-currents at this point that may carry the bodies a consider- able distance into deeper water, JUST ARRIVED 500 Popular Fiction at 785c each HENDERSONS Book Store required by the State law, was not, CAN WOMEN BE NAMED 70 SENATE? Government to Ask Supreme Court - to De- id , -- Ottawa, Oct. 22--The government has decided to submit to the Supreme Court the question whether women are eligible to sit in the Senate. For some time past women's organ- izations have been urging that any necessary legislation should be passed to enable women to sit in the Senate the same as they can now sit in the House of Commons, but there has al- ways been some doubt whether the British North America Act gives the necessary authority. The act author- izes the Government to appoint "quali- fied persons," but is a woman a person within the meaning of the act? Or is the term "persons" limited to a man. The point is a nice one and will no doubt arise when the reference is ar- gued before the Supreme Court. The Government has also decided to apply to the Privy Council for leave to appeal on the question of Alberta natural resources. Transfer of Alber- ta resources was before the Supreme Court on a reference heard some time ago and the court gave judgment. That judgment the Dominion Government now seeks to have taken to the Privy Council for a final ruling on the sub ject. LLOYD GEORGE TURNS OVER HUGE SUM FOR GIGANTIC CAMPAIGN London, Oct. »,--Lloyd George has now transferred to the Liberal party fund £300,000, which, it was agreed some months ago, he should contribute from the political re- sources at his command. The first half--£150,000--was paid over some time ago. Lloyd George also agreed to make a contribution, roundly, of £30,000 yearly to the headquarters organi. zation of the party. The capital sum, £30,000, will enabe the Liberal party to put 500 canddates forward the next election. Sir Herbert Samuel, chairman of the party oganization, states that the contributioins from the Lloyd George fund are free from condi- tions of any kind. Lloyd George has been bitterly criticized by poli- tical opponents in connection with his party fund on the ground that it was raised mainly by payments for titles during his period of of- fice as Premier.

BANDAGE SELLERS ARE LATEST ST. VENDORS London, Eng. Oct. 25--"Band ! Three a penny." This cry may: be heard on the London to Southend ar- terial road every weekend. The bandage seller has his store in a sidecar attached to a motorcycle, and throughout the busy part of the afternoon and evening he keeps up a regular patrol on the most danger- ous portions of the thoroughfare, in- cluding that part known to motorists as "suicide corner." Unfortunately, or fortunately, whichever way you look at it, business is not brisk with this dispenser of bandages. Travellers on the main Dover road through' Farningham have often re- marked on the presence during the weekend of a small bell tent, at the cross roads, bearing the famous Red Cross of Geneva. On the main Brighton road through Kingswood, near Reigate, can be seen a little white box. Fastened in a con- spicuous position to the front garden fence, this box contains first-aid out- fits for whoever requires them--a kind- ly thought. A similar box can he seen on the old Brighton road. In addition to these facilities, the road scouts and patrols of the Auto- mobile Association carry dressings tor minor injuries, and not a few motor- ists have somewhere in their lockers one or more of the "First Field Dress- ings," originally prepared for the troops in the field, but which were flung on to the market at ridiculous "prices at the close of hostilities. | Radio Electric 15 Prince St. Phcoe 2477 S.
