Passmore, director of training for men, explained the System during the visit to Port Royal and Carshalton, Thege two systems are typical of 'those in operation elséwhera fn England, Wales ang Scotland aud have re- equipped 50,000 men since they were created. ; Careful Selection Each man is carefully select- ed and usually volun'eers for the training. In the skilled trade centres, they spend six mouths of jotensive study and work, eight hours a day for five and one- half days each week, In the out- door centres they work the same hours, but remain in training for three months and in most cases go to jobs direct from the centre. In addition fo their "dole" weekly = benefits of $3.72 the Ministry of Labor: gives them $1.62 so they will have exactly $0.96 for pocket momey paying for their lodging. Since these cenires were ed in October, 1925, have passed through them, 5,000 were discharged on medical grounds, or were dismissed, or voluntarily quit.. Of the 24,500 available for work 21,000 or $86 per eent found embloyment, Camps Increased The first training centre for unskilled work 'was established in May, 1929. The number grad- ually' increased to nine, but re- cently three have heen closed. At Carshalton, the centre is engaged in helping the community by lev- elling a 29-acre hill into an ath- letic field. The results achieved in the after open- | 25,600 men | outdoor atros, are even striking than in the ski trés. Since they 19,821 men have passed through then, "5,002 were disecbargeg on medical grounds, dismissed, or voluntarily quit training, Of the remainder, 13,847 or 93 per cent. found employment, . Director Passmore was en- thusiastic about the results, "They come here lpoking sallow, yery indifferent and sometimes 'hostile. Their 'muscles' are soft and fheir nerves teuse. They soon begin to pick up weight and with doctors watching them regulars ly, regain their strength and men- tal balance, When they go away they look like new men." The Training Centres for wo- men arc dolng similary:,. equip- ping many for new kinds of do- mestic work, ere are. 38 non- residential centres for women, adequate for nearly 1,300 and five residential centres each ecar- ing for 40 women, Hore, ' con- Figiires Attest Burden of Debts and Reparations London, Jan. 14:-The staggering burden of war debts and repara- tions is shown by statitises just is sued, The Reparations Commission in 1920 decided that Germany should pay 132,000,000000 gold marks (approximately $30,000,000,- 000) to the Allies within 30 years in equivalent annual instalments of $1,100,000,000. The Dawes plan was adopted in 1924 under which annual payments by Germany were to be based on a capital sum of $625,000,000,000, but in 1929 the Young plan agreed with the idea of finally determining the reparations and annuities, and the average annuity payable by Ger- many was plased at $500,000,000, be- were opened, | $410,000,000 on a small seaie. For 1932 the 'amount Was fixed at and was divided into two sections, conditional annuities and unconditional annuities. Be- tween 1925 and 1930 Germany made foreign loans exceeding $4,000,000,- 0005and spent $11,500,000,000 on re- organizing industries and internal developments, ginni and 1 amount not met by foreign borrowing is covered by German in- ternal loans, rates and taxes, The following is a list of war debts owed to the United Sintess Britain France .

Now, Germany officially declares herself insolvent as regards reparations, As a result France is resentful and threatens tariff re- prisals against Germany, but British opinion generally inclines to the view that cancellation of war debts all round is the only solution for world economic troubles, Canada owes nothing to Britain and is therefore not included in the amount of $380,000,000 owed by "the Dommians," Canada, however, "is entitled to $4,000,000 yearly from reparations paid by Germany, which she stands to lose in any cancella- tion. bevasvscannnne desma ransiapannen mg in their impatient They were becalmed vacht, and his wire grew and fussy.

City, Last night the quartette entertained the Canadian Club end more than 200 music patrons attended, including many dis- tinguished Canadians. Following the performance a distinguished Canadian voiced the gaggestion efforts should be wade to secure the instruments ané place them in a Canadian In- stitution for use by any qualified tousicians of the Dominion. The movement is reported to have met with a good reception by a number of the patrons of the eris in Canada and it Is consid- ered quite within the hounds of { possibility that the 18th century | masterpieces may find a perman- ent home in the Dominion. A feature of the collection vhich the Hart House Quartette will use in their first official ap- pearance here on Jan. 14, is a viola which formerly belonged to the famous Paganini. There are cnly 13 Strad violas In existence and this one is valued at $120,- C00. Its of the noted violinist's most successful perfod -- 1731. The cello at one' time belonged to Pawle, a wealthy British am- ateur, One of the violins was formerly the property of profes- sor Hallir, who was the second violinist of Joachim. The sec- ond violin was once owned fie Prince Bronaccio, DECISION AWAITED ON WHEAT QUOTA Farmers and M Merchants to Meet Minister of Agriculture London, Jan. 14.--Full agree- racnt on the working out of the Government's projected scheme for giving domestic wheat grow- ers a guaranteed quota of - the British wheat market, is expected to be reached when the millers, farmers and corn merchants dis- cuss with Sir John Gilmour, Min- | icter quota, The Government's draft scheme, it is understood, has not yet taken notice 'of the millers' request for duties on imported flour with Imperial preference, although some concession in this regard may be expected. The edministering commission which the Government proposes to es- tablish" will obtain information regarding the amount of home- grown wheat of milling quality available each year and will ad- vise the Minister of Agriculture of Agriculture, the wheat | } | | the percentage that British mill- ers should be required to absorb. The farmer will receive a sub- ¢idy represented by the differ- ence between the average free market price determined by the commission, apd the guaranteed price to be defined by act of Par- liament. Will Come From Fund The subsidy: will be drawn from the fund raised by the sale of "wheat certificates" to the millers and flour importers. Pro- vision is made, it is understood, tho: if the amount of wheat grown by the farmers exceeds the estimated supply the fixed guar- gnteed price will be proportion- ately reduced. 4 Lord Astor, in a letter to The I'imes says that before the coun- try is committed "we ought to be satisfied the scheme is admin- istratively sound and essential toward agriculture, If the pub- I'thed reports are accurate it is none of this." Lord Astor urges that millions which the public is compelled to pay annually to grow sugar and wheat (of which there are world gluts) would be more Lelpfal to agriculture if they were used in developing livestock, dairy, poultry, fruit and vegetables, A new minister in 3 Georgia church was delivering his first ser- mon, The janitor was a critical tone 1 2 back corner of the chureh. "The minister's sermon was cloguent and his prayers se~med to cover the whole category of human wants, After the services one of the deacons asked the old janitor what he thought of the new minis- ter.
