PAGE SIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1929 AMERICANS CALLED | DOLLAR CHASERS" - Criticism is Steadily Increas. ! ing in the French Newspapers Paris, Feb, 6.--TI'rench criticism of Americans is steadily increasing again, and within the last two weeks a dozen attacks on Ameri- can "dollar chasers," "moral hypo- crites'" and the 'bath tub civiliza- tion" have appeared in Paris news- papers, "Nowhere is the slogan 'getrich' more fundamental than in Amer- lea," writes Fernand Corcos, who made a short trip to the eastern States, in Le Journal, "The movies, literature, the newspapers, all con- centrate upon praise of the men who have made fortunes." Gene Tunney, he said, is popular because he made a fortune in the prize ring. Now that Tunney is go- ing to study philosophy at the Sor- bonne, Corcos added, he is no long- er "beloved."

The recent wholesale exodus of Mexican Rirens has created a grave problem. In calling the matter 'to the atten- tion of his cabinet, President Portes Gil pointed out that emigration of Mexicans is no more desirable to Mexico than it is to the country of their destination. He outlined a plan for stemming the outflow and various of the government depart- ments have set to work on the pro- ect, } The president penetrated directly to the roots of the problem and found that lack of employment on this side of the Rio Grande is its principal cause. He gave orders that the cause be combatted, : It is hoped that by creating new industries, and rearranging the tar- iffs so as to give Mexican production a maximum protection the field for employment will be greatly expand- By redoubling its programme of irrigation works the government plans to open up vast tracts of land for agriculture, giving occupation to many thousands, and its announce- ment that 40,000,000 pesos will be spent in the next four years in road construction discloses its endeavors to better the system of communica- tions and thus improve the situation by providing the farmer with a means of getting his products to the mar- ket, CABINET TAKES NO ACTION ON BEAUHARNOIS PLAN Ottawa, Feb, 6--No announcement with respect to the proposed Beau- harnois power canal was forthcoming from the: Prime Minister, following the Cabinet session here yesterday. The general feeling in the capital with regard to this project 'is that the Government will await the judgment of the Supreme Court, to be de- livered tomorrow, touching on the question of jurisdiction over water- powers as between Federal and Pro- vincial authorities. One of the mat- ters argued at the hearing of the Supreme Court last Fall dealt with the question of administrative rights in respect of power developed on navigable waters. fe ee -- LAMBLPE'S-- Extra Special Bargains For the Week End ARO 'Women's Fancy Children's LLAMA WOOL COATS 9 \DANGED OUT OF WINDOW BECAUSE KISS WAS REFUSED Temporary Insanity Declar- ed the Reason far Suicide Chicago, Feb, 6.--Fred Reynolds dancer in 'Lovely Lady," danced himself out of the window of his beloved lady's room in the Berk- shire hotel. He fell from the sixth floor to the roof on the tea garden, He died an hour later at the Hen- rotin hospital. At the East Chicago avenue po- lice station, Miss Ruth Baylis, 21- year-old show girl of the same cast, whom he thought to be the loveliest lady in "Lovely Lady," told the po- lice that she and Reynolds had been sitting up all night discussing re- ligion and science, and that he had Jumped out the window when she refused to give him a good-night kiss, As the dancer leaped, M Tacy Bixby, whose stage name in "Lovely Lady" 18 Tacy Turner, and who shared room 606 with Miss Baylis, opened the door to come into the chamber, "Terribly in Love," She Says "Reyonlds was terribly in love with Ruth Baylis," she told the po- lice, "I don't know whether they had a quarrel or whether he just had one of his love fits." When the calmer, Miss Baylis ex- plained more fully, Reynolds shar- ed room 908 in the same hotel with Guy Sterling, also of the "Lovely Lady" company, After the show, he come down to her room. He found her tearing up a letter she had written to another man, "You don't love me any more," he cried. She reassured him of her love. But he wouldn't believe her. "He was in one of his moods, Some- times he just got that way terribly melancholy, And then, nothing could cheer him up. He talked about what a failure he was, how he hadn't done the great things he expected to do as an actor. He was just 28 years old, Lots of times he said he would commit suicide. He was awfully temperamental." They talked some more, she said. "Then he got up and said 'You don't love me any more, I think I'll commit suicide, You might kiss me good-by'." Refuses to Kiss Him, His "Lovely Lady" wonldn't kiss him good-by. Besides, she didn't think he was going to commit sui- cide. She thought he was going up to his room to sleep. But instead of going to the door he went, with his light, dancing step, over to the window. In an in- stant he had jumped. Ruth Baylis screamed. Her room- mate, who had been washing some clothes in the bathroom during the long conversation, burst into the bedroom just as Reynolds' head dis- appeared below the level of the window sill, A coroner's jury decided it was suicide while temporarily insane, REACTIONARY IN LATER DEALINGS IN WALL STREET SILK AND WOOL HOSE F , greys and pongee.

Sizes 4, 5, Wall Street, --The stock market turned reactionary to-day after an early interval of strength. The selling probably was inspired by the calling of $2£0.000,000 in bank loans and the possibility that call money might rise above the renewal rate of 7 per cent. Professional traders also showed a tendency to take profits prior to the publica- tion of the stock exchange member loan statement, which is generally expected to show an increase of about $300,000,000 due in part to new listings of about $1,700,000,- 000 last month. Speculative opinion is still divid- ed over the possibility of an in- crease in the Bank of England or New York Federal Reserve redis- count rates this week, although the former rate is likely to be changed first. London despatches indicated that money rates were easy there, lead- ing to the possibility of further gold imports with sterling hovering around the "gold import" point. Any increase in the New York call rate is likely to be temporary. Railroad shares were heavily bought during the morning as a re- sult of the favorable character of the current traffic and earnings report and the revival of merger rumors, but the gains were cut down or cancelled in the early af- ternoon selling movement. Jersey Central quickly added 8 points to its 25 point gain of last week and Western Maryland, Reading and the Chicago end Altona were among those to move. COURTICE Courtice, Feb. 5 -- Mrs. 8S. 8.

The tribe, known as the Cuiapo-Pihibi, is dis- appearing due to disease and at- tacks by a more warlike tribe to the west, PEDDLERS" BILL BEING REVIEWED Old Legislative Proposal is Again Coming Before the Ontario House Toronto, Feb. 6.--"'Gone but not forgotten' would be a fittl epi- taph for the famous Hawkers' Ped- dlers' and Transient Traders' Bill, which at the last session of the House, was thought to have been killed so conclusively for the third time, then it was thrown out, At the present session, it appears however, a new piece of legislation, leaving the offensive parts of the old bill out, will be submitted to the Legislature by a Toronto member, and it will be labelled: "Respecting transient traders," Apart from the "uproarious" killing of the bill at the last session the fact that the sponsor of the bill Fred T. Smye, of Hamilton, has in the meatime hecome a cabinet min- ister without portfolio, as thought to be ample ground for the belief that the bill would "stay dead." A Toronto member, now, will in- troduce the hill, insofar as its in- troduction, if once more performed by Mr. Smye, would he evidence of Government's support. It will have the backing of the Retail Mer- chants' Association, MINING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA British Columbia is the banner province of Canada in the produc- tion of non-ferrous base metals.

This is the time of year when serious cold troubles, such as deep chest colds, bronchitis, and pneumonia are always at their worst, Just now, with so many people in the weakened condition that follows a flu attack, it is more important than ever to heed every cold as a danger signal and check it promptly before complica- tions can set in. Quick Direct Treatment At the first sign of a cold, melt some Vicks in a bow! of hot water and inhale its healing vapors. Also place some up each nos- tril and snuff well back. This quickly opens the air passages. At bedtime, rub Vicks vigorously over throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel. Most colds yield overnight to Vicks two-fold action. Acts 2 Ways at Once (1) Its medicated vapors, released by the warmth of the body, are inhaled direct to the inflamed air passages, loosening the phlegm and easing the difficult breathing, (2) At the same time, Vicks acts through the skin like a poul- tice, 'drawing out" tightness and soreness, and thus helping the vapors to break up the congestion. Mothers especially appreciate this simple external treatment because it cannot upset the children's delicate stomachs, as too much "dosing" is apt to do. . fICKS VAPORUB For Colds of All the Family or not A store wide Clear- ance of all odd lines and broken sizes at fractional prices.
