PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY 11MeS, 1HURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1928 NEW RADIO LAW WILL BE GREAT AID. FOR EFFICIENCY Adherence to Assigned Fre quency Hoped for By C ~s Washington, Nov, 8 -- The suec- cess of the new allocation of broad- casting stations is closely bound up with accurate adjustment of the different stations to their assigned frequency, Dr. J. H. Dellinger, Chief Engineer of the Radio Com- mission, said yesterday. "There is every reason to ex- pect," he stated, "that the new al- Jocation effective Nov. 11 will bring sreatly increased service to radio listeners. This is based, however, unequivocally upon the rigid adherence of each station to the frequency assigned. Not only the Commission, but broadcasters in general realize this fully, and it is expected that the stations will all operate on their new frequencies with accuracy. Period of Grace Dr. Dellinger denied an impres- sion that the Commission would al- low a period of grace during which fresuency variations would be tol- erated. The Radio Commission yes- terday issued a new gen ral order to lessen interference by discon tinning the use of apparatus em- ploying damped wave emissions. No lic will be issued after fan. 1 to any radio station (other than ship stations) having a trans- mitter employing damped wave emissions, Waves to be Continuous "All such stations," says the or- der, "now operating under author- ity granted by the Federal Radio Commission , and having 'transmit- ters employing damped wave emis sions shall discontinue - such use and shall replace such transmitters with ) ous waves or modulated continuous wave emissions prior to Jan. 1, 1929. Any licensee who's un- able to comply with this order with- in the period specified hecause of reasons beyond his control ense apparatus employing continu- j upon application and proper show- ing to the Commission obtaim a reasonable extemsion of said per- iod." TWENTY CITIES ARE TO BE REPRESENTED London, Nov. 8.--Interest in the London aviation conference, to be held in Hotel London on Novem- ber 8, seems a matter of civic con- cern in Western Ontario, Replies to invitations sent out by the London Chamber of Commerce have brought replies in many instances, showing that the visitors will be mayors, aldermen and controllers.

Charles Farquharson, in the will of the late Charles Millar, Toronto, lawyer and sportsman. In his sormom on . Sunday Mr. Farquharson announced that he could see no harm in accepting the legacy and that he would offer it to the board of stewards of his church and if they did mot want it the Salvation Army or Goodfellows Fund would profit. Mr. Farquhar- son said there was no such thing as dirty money, 'only dirty souls." In the resolution passed by the stewards declining the gift they said that inasmuch as the commit- tee believe this last will and testament of Mr. Millar to be a joke and a reflection on all minis- ters mentioned by him and a reflec- tion on the church, that the church could not accept the bequest. The clause in the Millar will un- der which Mr. Farquharson and other ministers resident here at the death of the testator could profit,, bequeathed one share of the race track stock to all Christian minis- ters earning an annual stipend preaching the Gospel to sinners, excepting one Spracklin, who shot a hotelkeeper.

The inquest was opened by Dr. W. C. Arnold, coroner of Halley- bury, and was adjourned for a week after the jury had viewed Ferguson's badly-burned body. The inquest was ordered after an in- vestigation: by Sergt. George Del- ves, of the proivncial police district headquarters at Cobalt, Pending the resumption of the inquest, at which it is thought witnesses at present under medical care will be able to testify, Inspector W. T. Moore, in charge of provincial police, declined to discuss the re- sult of Sergt, Delves' investiga- tion, Ferguson's three sons are in hospital and are expected to recover unless complications develop, Mrs Ferguson and five other children escaped from the burning house, which was. quickly demolished by the flames. It was the third time the family had been burned out in twelve years, Ferguson and four asleep upstalrs SON were in the two-storey frame house, and Mrs, Ferguson and four girls were on the lower floor. Ferguson and the boys wha were hurned received their injur- fes when they had to run down the blazing stairway, CANADA UNLIKELY ~ T0 MERGE WITH UNITED STATES Tennessee Paper Says It Will Never Happen, but Friend. ship Will Increase Washington, D. C., Nov. 8.--A Southerners views om anaexation talk is contained in an editorial in the Chattanooga (Tenm.) News, of which George Fort Milton, is edi- tor. "The uninformed," says the editorial, "often talk of the inevita- bility of the absorption of Canada into the American nation--that it is an economic unfon which is bound to come in a political sense. Well-informed Canadians scoff at the idea. The Canadians are proud of their citizenship, of their mem- bership in a free nation in a com- monwealth of free nations and see no reason for any change." The writer proceeds to review a recent publication embodying a speech by Hon. Vincent Massey on "The Making of a Nation". He in- dorses Mr. Massey's opinion that because Canada's development was evolutionary and not revolutionary, its independence will be worked out in a manner different from that of the United States. Bond is Close Commenting on the changed stat- us of the Dominions in the last de- cade, the editorial comments that "Westminister is very sensibly putt- ing its faith in the paradoxical truth, "The looser the tie, the closer the bond." * "Thus historically," the editorial continues, "it seems unlikely that Canada will ever merge with the United States. Nor is there any clear reason why she should. Territorial- ly United States possesses enough square miles, Every year we are nearer a complete rapprochement with our neighbors to the North. Let us continue the path af friend- ship. Annexation is an idle dreamg* METROPOLITAN OPERA New York, N.

The latter misquotation is es- pecially applicable to the .mews- paper friends of Gordon Hogarth, local newspaperman. A week ago, Hogarth, while strolling along Grosvenor street, from the sylvan areas of Queen's Park, picked up three strings of what seemed to be bonest-to-goodness pearls and two silver ornaments. Like the honest soul that he was Hogarth immediately carried his find to Detective-Sergt. Phil Me- Mahon, at detective headquarters, where the treasures were, duly list- ed and evaluated at $1,000. Now, the law says that, should a lost article not be claimed within three months, the finder may re- tain it until the rightful owner turned up. Therein lay the newspaperman's hope. Unowned, at the expiration of the time limit, Hogarth promis- ed to turn his find into coin of the realm and "the boys." That hope, however, went aglim- mering yesterday, when a pretty young lady, stenographer for a lo- cal firm. tripped daintily into de- tective headquarters and claimed the trinkets. But it was not until she was leaving the prosaic prec- incts of the detective office that she dealt the expectant ones the saddest blow of all, by remarking airily that she would not have lost very much had the trinkets not been found, as they cost only ten dollars. FRENCH ENVOY TO U.S. HAS BUSY TIME Quebee, Nov. T7.--Paul Claudel French Ambassador to the United States, spent a busy week-end in Quebec.

OWNER APPEARS ing to His, Eminence being out of the members of the French Colonv/ CANADA 13 BEST CUSTOMER OF THE ~~ UNITED STATES States Ship Twice as Much Finished Product as Crude Materials Washington, D. C., Nov. 8.---The world must revise its long-standing classification of the United States as a raw-material producing mat- fon. In the first half of this year, when United States exports broke all records, the value of finished products sent abroad was twice that of crude materials. Since the world war manufac- tured products have accounted about three-fourths of Amecrica's 50 leading exports. In the first half of this year the proportionate value of this group gained nearly 8 per cent over the previous cor- responding period. Cotton Leads Unmanufactured cotton was the leading item in dollar value, but showed a slight decrease, while au- tomobiles, parts and accessories. the next item in importance, showed an increase of 17 per cent. Machinery of various sorts made gains of 30 per cent and more. Canada, owing to its proximity to United States manufacturing centres, has become her best cus- tomer, outdistancing the United Kingdom. Exports to Canada in the first half of the year were approxi- mately $429.000,000. The United Kingdom, America's second best customer, took products to the value of $384,000,000. Europe, however, was Uncle Sam's leading continef- tal customer, taking more than $1, 000,000,000 worth of his goods. Canada supplied most of this country's foreign purchases. MOIINT ETNA TS IN VIOLENT ERUPTION Stream of Lava Threatens Villages at Foot of Volcano Catania, Ttaly, Nov. 8--The main stream of lava from Mount Etna, which burst into violent erupion again Monday night, had touched two villages and was threatening a third. The main stream of lava poured down the Vallonazzo Valley and al- ready has touched the villages of Puntalazzo and Nuziata. The lava flow is continuing toward the town of Mascall. Everything in the path of the molten mass--including valuable vineyards and orchards--has been destroyed. Flowing rapidly down the slope, the molten rock was travelling at a rate of 350 yards an hour, 14 feet high and two-thig's of a mile wide. No casualties were reported and it was said all persons in the path of the menacing flood had been carried to safety. The last violent spell of the vol- cano was in May, 1923, and the flow came from the same point as at present but proceeded in a norfh- easterly direction toward Lingnag- lossa. damaging trees and vines as now hut not claiming any lives.
