Manufacturers to Closely Study, Empire Needs "Montreal, Aug. 16.--With Eng- land rapidly solving her post-war problems, Great Britain should be obtaining a larger share of Cana- dian trade, according to F. W. Field, H.M., senior trade commis- sioner in Canada "and Newfound- land, who outlined _the meed for wider inter-Empire relations.at a luncheon of the Advertising Club in the Mount Royal yesterday. Mr. Field stated that generally there was an important transition taking place in British business and industry. -A number, of factors were responsible, the most import- ant being the necessity for seeking new markets in place of the oud which hays disappeared. Prospects for greater trade be- tween Canada and the United King- dom are good, Mr. Field declared, adding that much depended upon having an expert knowledge of the markets concerned, personal con- tact and advertising. "Phere was a time, and not so long ago," the speaker said, "when discussions of industrial conditions in the . United Kingdom arose, it was necessary to state John Bull wag neither dead nor dying. Few people on this continent now hold the old view, because the facts prove the British Isles are very much alive, and are taking steps to improve the general and indus- trial position and to learn what is going on in other parts of the world. "I have found, during many years in trade promotion work, that it is fashionable for one coun- try to condemn the business meth- ods of another. This is partly be- cause of the difference in methods and the lack of personal under- standing. I have often been told, for example, that British business firms do not reply, or possibly are slow in answering their corres- pondence. - As a matter 'of fact, there are business firms in every country who overlook letters oc- casionally or do not deal with them, rapidly. * In short, is it not true that there are at least two groups of business firms in every country, one group aggressive and up-to- alu CPR.

It is easier to find theoretical solu- tions sitting back in our chairs on -| this side of the Atlantic than it is actually to solve the problems while standing ankle deep in them. Considerable progress has been made in many instances and a number of surveys have been car- ried out in order to have at hand the necessary materials for tacx:-} ing big problems. ; "We frequently hear on this con- tinent, criticisms of United King- dom industrial methods. A few. of them, I believe, are justified. In some cases industrial and other business firms in the British Isles might, with advantage, adopt cer- tain business and industrial methn- ods of this country. Generally, however, there is an important transition taking place 'in British business and industry. A number of factors are responsible. One is the necessity of seeking for new markets in place of the old, which have disappeared. Another is the changing conditions in styles, pur- chasing habits and purchasing power of nations. The 'woollen and cotton trades, for example, find that artificial silk has taken, within a few years, a prominent place in the textile trades. . Visiting Markets "Another reason for the transl- tion is the increasing number of British business then who are visit- ing overseas markets to ascertam what those markets are buying. what they are making, where they are buying and how they are mak- ing. Still another reason, is the greater demand for the brains of the younger men of the British Isles. By that term I mean men between the ages, say, of 30 and 60. "Not long ago, I was endeavor- ing to explain to the visiting repre- sentative of an English firm, the methods . by which his concern should seek business In Canada. These methods differed materially from those being utilized at the time. He said to me, 'T agree en- tirely with your suggestion, but you have overlooked a tremendous obstacle in this instance. The av- erage age of my directors is 83!' "In many ways, the United King- dom is improving its industrial po- sition and strengthening its efforts to regain a fair share of the trade which was lost during the war and as a result of the changes which occurred after the war. 15 WORLD'S BIGGEST WIRE SPINNING JOB Making Cables for New Suspension Bridge Over The Hudson New York, N.Y. Aug. 16.--The world's biggest wire spinning job, that of making the cables for the suspension bridge over the Hudson river, linking New York and New Jersey, is under way. Felt Bros The LEADING JEWE ' 12 Simeoe St. South Try it and be convinced. Monufactured by NORTHROP & LYMAN CO Limited " D" J.D.KELLOGGS REMEDY You'll bé surprised how quickly and easily Dr. J. D. Kellogg's Asthma brings As Remedy et to Bl gorere Som or Hay Fever. It - effectively overcomes irrita- tion and permits you to escape from the horror of sleepless, restless nights. It relieves the worst cases. en of NY Four cables, each twice as long as any suspension cables ever made before, are being spun In their per- manent positions high above the |Hudson. 'a Each will have 25,000 strands of wire, and they are made by twist- ing the wires together, one after another, with machines at each end of the cable. The bridge is more than twice the length of the present largest suspension bridge, that . linking Philadelphia and Camden. The daring engineering carries the Hudson bridge across the river in a single span of 3,600 feet. It is longer than would be the result of placing together, end, to end, the world's two largest arch bridges, both of them now build- ing, ome over Sydney harbor in Australia and the other from Stat- en Island to New Jersey. These arches are nearly 1,700 feet long. The spinning is facilitated by workers on platforms swung from temporary cables, just 'below the position of the permanent cables, at heights ranging from 6235 feet above the river at the suspension tower tops, to 235 feet at the cen- ter of the bridge. The bridge is going up under 4i- rection of O. H. Ammann, chief en- gineer of bridges of the Port of New York Authority. He has been building bridges 25 years, and is one of . the engineers who have maintained for years that the Hud- son can be spanned successfully. The rigidity of this vast struc- ture will be supplied largely by its own weight. For the first time m the construction of large suspen- sion bridges, there will be no rig- id stiffening trusses to prevent sway. . The dead weight of 200 million pounds suspended by the cables is counted upon for rigidity. It is calculated also as sufficient to counterbalance any noticeable side sway from wind pressure, which is estimated at a possible maximum {ot 1,600 pounds a linear foot. i Omitting the stiffening trusses, Mr. Ammann says, has no bearing on safety, for stiffening of_suspen- sion bridges is done for comfort, the safety depending upon other factors. This span, for safety, is planned to carry a live load consisting of 10-ton trucks 25 feet apart in each of fhe eight lanes on its upper roadway, and on its lower. deck, the heaviest rapid transit trains, one train length apart on all four rail- way tracks. Only the upper vehicle and .pede- strian roadway will be built at first. Later, when railways are in- stalled, Mr. Ammann says, light stiffening trusses will be added to reduce vibration. SCHOOLHOUSE 1S TAKEN TO ESKIMOS To Be Erected at Nairn And English Taught Rather Than Eskimo Boston, Mass.,, August 16.--A knock gown schoolhouse for Eski- mos is-en route to Labrador with the expedition of Com. Donald B. MacMillan. The school will be erected at Nairn, with the proviso that the Eskimos be taught English rather than phonetic Eskimo. Thus edu~ cated, Commander MacMillan be- lieves, they will be better equipped for contact with the outside world. Not only the commander expects Eskimos to invade warmer cli- mates, but he believes that as the years roll by the summer season will take an increasing throng of visitors and traders to Labrador. After the children learn English he expects that books can be distribut- : Poultry Supplies - - MIXED SCRATCH GRAIN, FULL-O-PEP CHIC STARTER, FULL-O-PEP GROWING MASH FULL-O-PEP EGG MASH BRAN, SHORTS, MIDDLINGS, CORN CHOP, OAT CHOP, OYSTER SHELL, BEEF SCRAP, GRIT. ° | Phone 203] Hogg & Lytle, Limited The school building will serve us a community house, and is the first of five that the explorer purposes to construct. second at Hopedale next year.

KILLING OF CHINESE ENHANCE VALUE OF CORPS Washington, D.C., August 16.-- The story of the wholesale massa- cre of Chinese and Tibetans in re- mote western China is believed by the National Geographical Society to have enhanced beyond, all previ- ously estimated prices a set of Iib- etan classics at the library of con- gress. The great Buddhist monastery at Choni and all its valuable con- tents are among the buildings re- ported destroyed by the Moslem fa- natics.
