Wm on, Magen 3-The Kas m "of the r and lower Ho of the Conrocationg of the Beclesiastical Provinces of Canter- bury and York, held at Westmins- ter today to comsider the revised er Book measure as amended by the House of Bishops, represent- ed the vital stage of the Prayer Book battle, as the Convocations are to give or withhold without qualification their assent to the new Prayer Book being passed to the Chureh Assembly for ifnal appro- val. The upper House of the Canter- bury Convocation accepted the measure by 20 votes to 6, and the upper House of York accepted it unanimously. he galleries of the great hall were filled with spectators of both .'sexes during the meeting. Convocation Not Slighted "Fhe Archbishop of Canterbury in 'speech denying the allegation the Convocation was being ted on. overlooked, declared he always was jealous of the hts of their ancient convocation, which he had been an active fmber for 45 years. The presi oy of the Convocation, he sald, one of the most highly valued a Archbishop of Canterbury's privileges.

Old been to church this fine morning, 1 suppose, heh?" he sald, with a sneering laugh that revealed how little his laterview with Captain Charlie was contributing t ohis sat- isfaction. 2 "No, returned Pete. "I did not attend church this morning--I do go, though, generally." "Oh-ho! you worship the God of your good master Adam Ward, | suppose." But Pete Martin was in no way disturbed by the man's sacasm. "No." he said, slowly, "I da not think that Adam and I worship the same God." "Is it s0? But when the son goes to war so bravely and fights for his masters one would expect the father to say his prayers to his masters' God, heh?" Captain Charlie retorted, sharp- 1y, "The men who fought in the war fought for this mnation--for every citizen in it. We fought for Me- Iver just as we fought for Sam Whaley. Our loyalty in this igdus- trial question is exactly the same. We will save the industries of this country for every citizen alike be- cause our national life is at stake. Did you ever "wear of a sailor re- fusing to man the pumps on a sinking ship because the vessel was not his personal property?" "Bah!" growled Jake Vodell. "Your profession of loyalty to your country amuses me. Your ecoun- try! Tt is Mclver's country--Adam Ward's country, I tell you. It is my little band of live, aggressive heroes who ~re the loyal ones. Wa are the ones who will save the in- dustries, but we will save them for the laboring people alone. And you shirkers in your Mill workers' union are willing to stand aside and let us do your fighting for you, Have vou no pride for your class at gall?" "Oh, ves," returned Captain Charlie, "we have plenty of class pride. Cnly you see, Vodell, we don't consider ourselves in your class. You are no more loyal to the principle of our American uns lons than you are to the principles of our government. You don't re- present our unions. You represent somethirg fore'sn to the interests of every American citizen, You are trying to nse our unions in your business, that is all. And heeause you manage to get hold of a few poor fellows like Sam Whaley, you think you can lead the working people, If you really think our loy- glty to our country is a joke, drop In at an American Legion meeting some evening --bring along your foreign flag and all your foreigfin friends. I'll pronise you a wel- come that will, I think, ecomvince you that we have ..me class pride after all." The agitator rose heavily to his feet. "It is your friendship with this John Ward that makes you turn from your own class. I have known how it would be with you. But it is no watter. You shall see. We will make a demoustration in Millsburgh that wil! win the men of your union in .'te of you and your crippled old basket maker. 1f you had a per onal grievance against Adam Ward as so many others have you would be with me fast enough. But he and his son have made you blind with their pretended kindness." Pete Martin spoke now with a dignity and oride that moved Cap- tain Charlie deeply. "Mr. Vodell, you are wrong. My son is too big to be influenced ir this matter by any personal consic ration. What- ever there is that is personal bet- ween Charlie and Tohn or between Adam Ward and myself will never be brought into this controversy." Jake Vodell shrugged his heavy shoulders. "Very well--I will go now. You will see that in the end the working people will know who are for their interests and who are against them, and we will know. too, how to reward our friends and punish our enemies. Iam sorry. I have given you to-day your last chance. You have a pretty little place here, {heh ?" There was a look in his dark face, as he gazed about appraising- ly, that made Captain Charlie go a step toward him. "You have given us our last chance? Ts this & sam- ple of the freedom that you offer so eloquently to the people? Tnstead of the imperialist McIver we are to have the imperialist Vodell, are we? Between the two of you I prefer McIver. He Is at least sane enough to be constructive in his imperial- ism. My father and I have I'ved here all our lives, as most of our neighbors have. The majority of the workmen In this community own their homes just as we do. We are a part of the life of this city What have you at stake? Where is your home and family? What is your nationality? What is your record of useful industry? Before you talk about giving a lest chance to workmen like my father you will need to produce the credentials of your authority, We have your number, Jake Vodell. You may as well go back to the land where you belong, if you belong anvwhere on earth, You will never hang your colors in the union Mill workers' hall. We have a flag there now that suits us. The chance you of- fer, last or first, is too darned hig a chance for any sane American workman to monkey with," (To be Continued) "WOMEN LOSE VOTE" (Montreal Star) Once more an attempt to extend the franchise to women in Mon- veal has failed, - The proposal of the. city was to give married wo- men pepsrate as to property, who own real estate, a vote In the mun- cipal elections. It passed the Legislative Assembly, but the Council killed it by twelve votes to seven, Among the twelve oppos- ing the proposal were the Hon. J. L. Perron apd the Mayor. An ironic comment on the situ- ation is provided by the fact that fn Quebec City, the capital of the province and the seat of the Leg- {slature, married = women separate 8s to preperty and owalpg prop- erty have enjoyed the municipal franchise for years, When this fact was drawn to the attention ct Mr. Peron, that gentleman replied: *I have a great respect 'for Que- bec, but that does not prove it to be correct." The metropolis of the Dominion is thus forced into an ignominous position and a palpable injustice to women. remains unredressed. Devastation by Spruce Budworm One of the serious enemies of the balsamn fir in the forests of Eastern Canada in recent years bas been the so-called spruce budworm (Cacoecia fumiferapa), The iarvae of this insect have been respon sible for the defoliation and sub- sequent death of immense stands of balsam fir and spruce, the greater damage apparently being done to the fir. Strenuous efforts to con- trol this pest have been made for many years by the Canadian de- partments of Agriculture and the nterior, including last year the dusting of infested areas with in- secticide from aeroplanes.

NO PENNY POSTAGE IN BRITISH ISLES Chancellor's Refusal Disap- points Traders--Would Cost $25,000,000 LONDON, MAR 19 -- Winston Churchill's refusal to re-establish the penny post has disappointed the whole commercial community of the British Isles. It is under stood, however, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer was unable to sacrifice the necessary $25,000,» 000. Another Budget secret dlsplosed is that Mr, Churchill alsy declar- ed he was upable to reduce the duties on wines and spirits, The Budget will probably be in- troduced on. April 28. It is be- lieved that Mr, Churchill's decis- fons with regard to retaining the aforementioned sources of revenue was due to the astonishing dls- closures of Walter Runciman, member of Parliament, shipping magnate and banker, that the Government actually had not re- duced the budgetary debt during the 1925-1926 Budget year por in the 1926-1927 Budget year. Mr. Runciman contends that the reduction of apparently $295, 000,000 is illusory and that the ritish natiopal debt has in re- lity increased $65,000,000, Supporting Mr. Runciman's de- clarations fs the fact that governs ment stocks have failed to im- prove, although by the ordinary operation of economic laws an improvement should have taken place at a time like the present hen commodity values are falls ng. AS A RESORT (The New Outlook) Sir Wilfred Grenfell is paying a visit to Canada at the present time and is telling to increased audi- ences everywhere, with the aid of lantern views and moving pictures, the eolorful story of his work "down morth" along the coast of Labrador. The story is a roman- tic and appealing one and Canadi- an people are always eager to hear of the progress of the work along hospital, educational, religi- ous and other lines with the "liy- yeres," and to help the good cause to the best of their ability. The word "Labrador" brings to mind a bleak and barren land of little na- tural beauty, but that impression is being dispelled by tales of the loveliness of the country in the short summer months. Sir Wilfred predicts that within a wery few years, tourists will find their way lalong the coast to summer on the many fjords. What this will mean to that country and to the work being carried on there, cannot yet be prophesied, but that it will give it a greater impetus no one can doubt. pan es ~~ TIMES, FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1928 CANAD YEAR SAVED ON GOLD COAST JoB Contractor Completes Har- bor in Readiness for Cocoa Season London, March 30.--A night and day hustle on the part of the con- tractors, Sir Robert McAlpine and Sons, has resulted in the comple- tion of the new $20,000,000 harbor at Takoradi, on the Gold Coast, a full year earlier than was expect- ed. J. H. Thonras, M.P., is to per- form the opening ceremony during the first week in April. World speed records, in the re- moval and placing in position of many thousands of tons of rock, have been established during the progress of the work. Twenty thou- sand cubic yards of granite were, within a single week, brought from the quarry, seven miles away, and placed in position on the break- water. No fewer than two million cubic yards of rock have been used in the construction of the great break- waters, which have a total lemzth of 11,000 feet. This is 2,000 feet longer than the famous breakwa- ters of Dover, and the Takoradi works were constructed in far less time than those of England's cross- Channe] port. Work on the construetion began as far back as 1921, but the plans were eventually revised, and tae present contractors did not take ov- er the work until Septemuer, 1924, since which time an average of six- ty-five Europeans and 4,000 na- tives have been employed. They have been engaged on day and night. The comple- tion of the work so much in ad- vance of the specified time has Pneumatic High Velocity Cartridge in | shifts, so that the work has goue | IMPERIAL LONG RANGE DUCO FINISH | or down among the reeds without ith or caution.

N I AND S Vrs IA meant the saving of an emormous sum in overhead charges, but most of this has, it is understood, been expended by the contractors in the sending out of additional plant in order to expedite the work to the greatest possible extent.
