THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1929 ORIGINAL SCHUBERT MANUSCRIPT SOLD AT AUCTION Berlin, March 14--The financial tragedy of Franz Schubert's musical career was recalled at an auction of [famous musical manuscripts, when a Berlin dealer named Calvary obtain- od score of the composer's "Erl Koenig" for approximately $5, "Poor Schubert, that is more money than he probably saw in his entire life," said one music eritic in a stage whisper, and "poor Schu- bert," was on the lips of many other spectators, ¥ "Another Schubert manuscript the "Vergiss-Mein-Nicht" brought $775, FOR $5,000 The auction dispersed the collec: tioh of rare original manuseript of famous music composers of Leo Leipmannsonn.

PETER St. Lawrence Channel Now Open 90 Miles Aboye Quebec Quebec, March 14--The St, Law- rence channel ig reported openefrom Quebec to the centre of Lake St. Peter, or a distance of 90 miles, and work on smashing the other half of Lake St, Peter will be resumed to- day, in all likelihood, The lady Grey is now on her way to Three Rivers, and was expected to reach there last night. On her way up the Lady Grey is widening the channel and slicing off as much ice as she can, in order to make it easier for the remainder to float down the river, The Mikula is stationed in Que- bec for a few days, or until the high tides have passed, in order to pre- vent any ice-jams around the Que- bee Bridge, and then she will make her way up to Lake St, Peter, the two fce-breakers smashing the ice in order to get the channel open as quickly as possible between Que- bec and Montreal, ; From Anticosti Island it is re- ported that the costal steamer Sable 1, which left Quebec last Thursday on her first trip of the season for North Shore points, reached that point Monday on her way back and is expected back in Quebec in a few days, No news has been received here as to the steamers' initial trip, hut it is estimated that she ran into quite a lot of ice around the Ellis Bay sector, and could only proceed at about two knots an hour for 16 hours, SEASON SCORING RECORD IN LAST GAME OF SCHEDULE London, Ont,, Mar, 14, -- The local season's smallBst crowd of only about 1,000 saw the curtains rung down on the local Canpro season here last night, but they al- so saw a couple of league records \ for the season made when London Panthers defeated the Windsor Bulldogs by 7 to 6 and seriously hurt Yindsor's chances of regain- ing the league leadershiv from the Detroit Olympics, It was the highest total of goals scored in a aCnpro game this sea- son and it was played without a single penalty being imposed. The game was a turn around from the usual league variety, as in this case the customary heavy crime sheet was replaced by a surpris- ingly fat scoreboard record that had the amazed fans climbing on the seats at the finish, Through express railway service between Tientsin and Mukden, China, has just resumed, 4 The best soap you can buy and it is very inexpensive This is the big, yellow pack- sage of Princess Soap Flakes.

How- ever, instead of doing so, it got worse, "until T was badly crippled and had to clutch something to pull myself up out of a chair. Then it struck me that it was my kidneys. I bought a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills and soon got relief, After tak- ing a second box the pains have all gone, Now I always keep a box in the house." The best and most practical sys- tem of relief in the world to-day, is the one in which the sufferer ascertains for himself the nature of his disease and then chooses the most certain means of healing; this has heen known for the past thirty years as Dodd's Kidney Pill treat- ment, AGRARIAN BODIES BEGIN ACTIVITY Two Months Already Gone --Pa'icies for Coming Sea- son's Well Under Way Winnipeg, Man, Mar. 14---Farm- ers of the prairic provinces have plenty to think about today. With more than two months written off the, calendar, agrarian organizations of all three provinces have held their annual meetings and set their policies for the coming twelve month. In Manitoba and Alberta the pro- vincial bodies are under the same presidency as in 1928; Saskatchewan alone of the trio has a new leader, George H. Williams, youthful farm- er from Semans, Sask, holds the presidency of the United Farmers of Canada, Saskatchewan section, That the Saskatchewan body holds rather adyanced views has been stat- ed by Mr, Williams. Last year as vice-presiderit he was considered leader of the "left wing" of the or- ganization; this year, as successor to John A. Stoneman, who had served the constitutional two years maxi- mum as resident, Mr. Williams is certain to display to an even greater extent his dynamic personality, his friends state, For the fourteenth consecutive time Henry Wise Wood this year accept- ed the first executive office of the United Farmers of Alberta, Being president, as well, of the Alberta Wheat Pool, he wields mighty power in a province where the farmers hold the political throttle, Silent and pensive at the yearly gathering, the American-born farmer-leader showed that on occasion he is able to bend the gathering before his words, Out on his farm in Elm Creek, Man., Thomas W. Wood is busying himself with the technicalities of his second ycar as president of the Uni- ted Farmers of Manitoba, His gruff Scot character and the unassailable probity which accompanies it were the features which resulted in his re- election. "I'm not an expert at par- liamentary procedure," he stated in his election specch, "but another year as president will make me much more expert." Membership Down Only the Saskatchewan convention was able to report a membership that had not fallew back far from the mighty totals of the days of surg- ing farm body activity. While Mani- toba's membership had slipped back under the 5000 mark, and the Al- berta's had remained stationery near the 12,000 level, the United Farmers of Canada, Saskatchewan section, were able to claim a membership total of 30,000. Drives to add to the lists have been authorized by Alber- ta and Manitoba delegates. Heated debates marked at least one question in each of the three provinces. Though the meeting of the Saskatchewan body is held be- hind closed doors through which only badge and password win ad- mittance, comments among the dele- gates indicated that the session of 1929 had not been characterized by continued serenity, Each of the con- ventions, held at Brandon, Edmon- ton and Regina, was a four-day meeting with lengthy evening ses- sions. Political action constituted one of the major issues at Regina. After almost four hours discussion it was decided to abide by the constitution and avoid entrance into the political field as a body, No doubt, the feel- ing in favor of political action, evi- denced in several sections of the Saskatchewan gonventibn, was in great part the result of viewing the situation enjoyed by the United Far- mers in Manitoba and Alberta, in both of which provinces a farmers' government holds the reins? Both Alberta and Saskatchewan went on record as favoring removal "Flu" With | only start with 3 ead.

' of the present board of grain com- missioners and the appointment of a new five-man board with one mem- ber resident in Saskatchewan and one. in Alberta, and with itinerant duties, A similar resolution placed before the Manitoba convention was deemed too severe and was referred to the board of directors for con- sideration, : The potential split in the ranks of the United Farmers of Manitoba oc- casioned by the entry last year of the Farmers Union into amalgama- tion with the United Farmers of Manitoba was in evidence. Rejection of the $4,000 annual educational grant from the United Grain Growers, ef- fected when the Farmers' Union body joined up, was the issue of the meet- ing's most turbulent debate, After lengthy discussion, terminated by a sudden re-opening and closing of the question] it was decided that the grant would be accepted for this year only, assuring the reappcarance of the argument at the 1930 convention. New Council Planned Continuation of the Canadian Coun- cil of Agriculture, or early forma- tion of a new body to take its place, was favored in all three conventions, A new inter-provincial body taking up the duties of the council was fore- seen by George H, Williams, then vice-president of the Saskatchewan organization, in a fraternal speech before the Manitobans, Alberta fav- ored restricting of the activities of the council to coincide with its fin- ancial status. The Canadian Council of Agriculture's money balance has waned with retirement of commercial bodies, on demand of the Saskatch- ewan section, and consequent loss of aiding grants, The federal immigration policy, with reference particularly to aid ac- corded entering Europeans, was criti- cised by all three conventions, Mani- toba and Alberta farmers suggested that native sons might be accorded some of the government's money aid. Saskatchewan urged appointment of a national commission of inquiry to have public hearings and to study the problem of immigration and assimi- lation from every possible angle. Manitoba's Seven Sisters Falls power site dispute, now subject of a Royal Commission inquiry, threaten- ed to cause difficulty at the Mani- toba farmers' meeting. The lease of the site to a private company failed to coincide with a resolution passed at last year's convention favoring public ownership, and some delegates favored a vote of censure against the government's move. A decision to avoid action on the question, inas- much as it bordered on the political, prevented a wide-open breach. Both Saskatchewan and Alberta expressed chaarcteristic support for public own- ership, "Opposition leaders" in the Alberta and Manitoba conventions made their appearance at points of most heated argument, John Arnott, Rob- lin, Man., spoke against the accept- ance of the United Grain Growers grant by the Manitoba body; Carl Axclson, "left wing" leader in Alber- ta, opposed re-clection of Henry Wise cancelled on reconsideration. Absence of any mighty issues for the farmer at present is considered the reason for the almost general drop in membership and the decrease of delegates in atténdance at this year's conventions.
