"ow PETITION APPEARSINU,S.FOR ~~ COOLIDGE TO RECONSIDER DECISION New York, Nov. 23.--New York Herald-Tribune says a moveme aiming to put a majority of the peo- ple of the United States on record for the. re-election of President Cool- idge, in advance of the Republican national convention is gaining ground in New England. Links in a "chain petition" calling on the President to reconsider his decision not to run in 1928 have appeared in various parts of Connecticut and Massachusetts the newspaper says, @nd have been traced indirectly to Philip M. Tucker, Boston broker. The 'plan is to ask each citizen signing the petition to get tem others to sign, branching out until the entire United States has been covered. A footnote to the petition says: "There Is no organization be- hind this movement. It is entirely a spontaneous method by which the common people can express their wishes and ask others to carry on." To present a petition representa. tive of a majority of the voters an- ticipating in the last Presidential election, nearly 15,000,000 signa- tures would be necessary. Four times that number would be requir- ed to speak for a majorly of the American populace.

PAPERS IN LONDON FEATURE PRINCE'S "GO TO CANADA" CRY London, Nov, 28.--The impromp- tu speech of the Prince of Wales at the Canada Club has done more to bring Canada into the limelight today than hundreds of set speeches from others.

The affection which Canada has inspired in those visiting the Do- minion is remarkable, Premier Baldwin and Tord Hewart, like the Prince, never miss an opportunity of showing this affection and they are laughingly known as "Canadian advocates" to their friends and col- leagues because of the frequen: mention of Canada in all their speeches, HANOVER HOSPITAL REPORT SHOWS PROGRESSIVE YEAR Hanover, Nov, § --The fourth annual general meeting of the Han- over Memorial Hospital Board, was held here, The auditors' report show- ed the hospital to have had one of the best years in its history, with a considerable incresse in the number of patients treated, more operations performed and a large numbe of X-ray examinations.

LOGAL MANAGER GAINS PROMOTION (Continued from page 1) company until his promotion. Mr. Judge is no stranger to this district, He stated as an agent of the Metropolitan Life in. Toronto Hast in 1011, and has had wide ex- perience throughout the Dominion. Mr, Marsh leaves Oshawa for London tonight. The office will be in charge of Asst, Manager R. M. Kinsman until Mr. Judge, who is on his way from Vancouver, arrives, Change of management in busi- ness usually means a general shake- up in staff, Mr, Marsh's success is probably due largely to the fact that he doesn't helteve in that sort of thing.
