Red Cross Appeals for Aid for Chile, Spain, Etc. Mr. Norman Sommervilie, KC., chairman of the Central Council of the Canadian Red Cross, has written The Advance pointing out the serious need for funds to carry on special work of the Red Cross at present. This work includes help to the sufferers from the recent earthquake in Chill, aid to the Panish war sufferers and attention to the tragic situation of the refugees throughout Europe. A letter is enclosed from Lord Tweedsmuir, president of the Canadian Red Cross, making special reference to the results of the earthquake in Chili, It is estimated that 50,000 persons have been killed by the and with 75,000 homes destroyed, famine and disease and hardship are taking terâ€" rible toll. Without generous help the people of Chili will be in desperate plight in France and other countries, while the condition of the population of the various Spanish areas is most disâ€" tressinz. There is the problem of food, shortage of drugs and medical equipâ€" ment, linen, clothing and bedding. The tragic situation of hundreds of thousands of homeless refugses in Europe is most touching, These reâ€" fugses are dependent upon the Red Cross in Belgium, Czechoâ€"Slovakia, France, Hungary, Holland, Poland, Sweden Switzerland. Immediate assistance is necessary to prevent or mitigate, as far as possible, suffering, starvation and misery among these THURSDAY. 2NL, 1939 Lord Tweedsmuir Points to Suffering Following Chilean Earthquake. Canadian Red Cross Makes References to the Tragic Problem of Refugees in Various European Countries. countless refugees In concludinzg his letter, Mr. Somâ€" merville says that if any Canadians wish to contribute to sending relief to the people of Chili or to the Spanish war sufferers or European refugees, they may send the donation to the local Red Cross Society or to any of the provincial headquarters. The address of the latter for Ontario is "National Headquarters, Canadian Red Cross Soâ€" ciety, 621 Jarvis Street, Toronto." In sending such contributions it is asked that, donors signify to which of the three causes they wish the money placâ€" ed. Appeal for the Spanish war sufferers and the European refugees comes from the International Red Cross at Geneva. Imports of Canadian lumber and timber into Trinidad have increased owing to the construction of new dwelâ€" lings and the renovation of old proâ€" perties The number of building perâ€" mits issued for Port of Spain and subâ€" urks for the first six months of 1938 was almost equal to the total for 1937. In a report to the Department of Trade and Commerce, G. A. Néwman, Assistant Trade Commissioner at Port of Spain states that in addition to th¢se increases in construction, the estimates laid before the Legislature this year included the sum of $4,800,000 to be devoted to the acquiring of land and the building of from 6,000 to 6,500 cottages during the next five years (1939â€"44)." Canadian Lumber Used In Housing Plan in Trindad "There will likely be an increased demand for white pine and Western red cedar," says Mr. Newman. ‘"The reâ€" sistance of the latter to fungus and termite attack is becoming more appreâ€" ciated, and it is being used in increasâ€" ingly large quantities for interior and exterior finish. Canadian Douglas fir, although cheaper than pitch pine, is not regarded as being as fully resistant to termite attacks, with the result that pitch pine remains well established in the local market. . Canadian factoryâ€" made doors and window frames are beâ€" ing imported at prices which compare very favourably with those of similar products of local manufacture and there is reason to believe that the trade will steadily increase." The regular yearâ€"round freight serâ€" vices of the Canadian National Steamâ€" ships from Halifax are an important factor in promoting trade between the Dominion and the islands of the Caribâ€" bean Sea in which Trinidad is an imâ€" portant colony.

Five veins from 1 to 5 feet wide were encountered on the 1,000â€"foot level and most northerly and southerly of these were developed by drifts. North vein averages $15.15 uncut and $12.07 across 3.7 feet for 3085 feet. South vein has been opened for 70 feet with gold values to date marginal. Two weins have been cut on the 875 level, the first narrow and giving low values and believed to be a branch of the main vein. Second vein, strong and well defined, has returned values of $12.60 over 8.5 feet and $3.50 over 3.50 feet. Crosscut on 750 level is out 635 feet, with about 390 feet to go to reach the ore. Series of lateral diamondâ€"drill holes are being drilled across tne zone from each level at 50â€"foot intervals. Interesting Cases at Haileybury Court Haileybury, March 2.â€"(Special to The Advance)â€"One action which was started on the Gold Coast and is s2quel to police court proceedings more than three years old, and another which was adjourned last fall because of illness and is likely to be postponed again for similar cause, are included in the list of sleven civil cases set down for hearing at the Supreme Court sittings here next week. Mr. Justice Makins will preside at the court, for which two cases from Kirkland Lake are the only criminal business. Only Two Criminal Cases Both of Them Charges of Manslaughter. In four of the civil cases, jury trial is asked. In one of thes?, an action from Matachewan brought by Ralph Lacoste against H. A. Camp>ell and others, and in which plainiiff alleges wrongful disâ€" missal, J. A. Legris, KJC., said he proâ€" posed to make a motion asking adjcurnâ€" ment of the case. One of the defendâ€" ants, John A. McGuire, is so seriously ill that he had to be flown out by airâ€" plane this week from Matachewan to Noaw Liskeard hospital. When the case came up at the last Fall Assizes, the plaintiff Lacoste was ill and the hearâ€" ing could not proceed. Another jury case is that brought by C. Robert Shortt against Clarence E. Tuer, KC., and P. M. Fleming, of Hailsybury, plaintiff claiming damages for alleged malicious prosecution. _ It is claimed that in 1935, Shortt was prosecuted on a charge of theft of ore from ithe old Argonaut mine at Larder Lake, in which defendants allegedly were interested. The charge was disâ€" missed by the magistrate at Kirkland Lake. In the interval, plaintiff has been mining in the tropics, it is stated, and he was in West Africa when he began the present proceedings. An automobile accident involving Dr. W. W. Wallingford, of New Liskeard, and Dan Vahey, Sr., and his son, Dan Vahey, Jr., of the adjoining countryâ€" side, forms the basis of damage actions brought by plaintiff, defendants having added the Canadian Surety Co. as third party. In the list of sevén nonâ€"jury cases, Edna Lyle and Louis Irvine, partâ€" ners in mining land in Kirkland Lake, are suing the township of Teck for alâ€" leged occupation and trespass. The case is sequel to expropriation proceedâ€" ings under a municipal byâ€"law before the District Court Judge. Crown Atâ€" torney J. B. Robinson will act as Crown Prosecutor in the criminal cases, in which William McDonald and John Shkvirok are defendants. German Liberalism Now Thing of Past In its palmy * Berliner Tageâ€" blatt bore a ~=~s2mblance to the Manchester ~~=~>rdian, and it is thereâ€" fore fitt‘>rr that Dr. Theodor Wolff, who was for so many years its editor, should write for the Guardian his memoirs of the famous paper which went out of existence a few weeks ago. It does not appear to have been supâ€" pressed; it simply died of inanition because it could no longer continue in its liberal traditions, for there was no profitable market for what it had to sell. There survives but one other German paper which in the old days had mor» than a national reputation for liberalism. That is the Frankfurter Zeitung which continues to struggle. We judge from the tone of Mr. Wolff‘s article that he either hopes to return to Germany or has relatives there, for he is extremely cautious and uses little space in a denunciation of the regime which has made liberalism as well as its newspaper champions impossible in Germany. _ The day is past when "men lived and worked in an environâ€" ment of freedom and honour," as he says. (By J. V. McArge n Glohe and Mail) Jail for the Editor | The paper was founded in 1871 by| Rudolf Mosse, son of a countly physiâ€"l cian. He had small means, by no, means a complete education, but de-i votion to the cause of liberalism as hei saw it and his little paper. He surâ€" rounded himself with noted scholarsl like Virchow and Mcmmsen and other | liberals, who wrote not for profit but| because they were attached to certaini political principals then being proâ€" claimed for the first time. The Tageâ€" | blatt was originally a small sheet inâ€" | tended only for Berlin readers, but under the Gdriving of its editor, Dr. Artur Levysohn, who had caught the gsay spirit of Viennese journalism, it presently extended its influence. For | a long time it was more noted for its' iiterary qualities than for any other | feature. Nevertheless the editor soon got into trouble with Bismarck and | spent several weeks in jail. When he | was released he took with him the 1in-| en jacket he had worn as a prisoner, and to the very end of his connection with the paper he wore this as a badge of his honourable servitude as an inâ€" dependent journalist, In the earlier vears of the paper Wolff, who was Mosse‘s cousin, served as its Paris corâ€" | raspondent, but soon after the turn of the century returned to Berlin to beâ€" | come editor. It was to Woiff rather | than to either Mosse or Levysohn that| the Tageblatt owed its subsequent reâ€" | putation.. He turned it from a vagueâ€" ly liberal paper into a battling demoâ€" cratic ong, Opposed the Kaiser One of Wolff‘s first important deâ€" cisions was his support of the Social Democrats in an election for the Reichstag. This was thought to have been a ruinous thing to do, but events proved otherwise, and the Tageblatt soon was enjoying an unprecedented popularity.â€" Just as he had opposed the foreign policy of Holstein and Bueâ€" ltow when a correspondent and had championed the cause of Dreyfus, so the Tageblatt under Dr. Wolff conâ€" demned the home and foreign policy of the exâ€"Kaiser, and especially criticâ€" ized the naval race with Great Britain which he foroesaw would likely end in war. He did not meet Prince Buelow until after he had fallen from power, but then had many conversations with him in ~which the former Chancellor to nrove to him that any unâ€" wWar.

Once the paper was suppressâ€" ed sine die, and it appsared that its staff of workers would be thrown on the streets Thereupon Wolff offered to write nothing at all for several months if the paper were permitted to issue. So it continued on this underâ€" standing, and at the end of the time Wolff was invited by the military cenâ€" sor to take up his pen pnce more. He consented to do so only on the conâ€" dition that he should be free to criticâ€" ize if he saw fit, With the end of the war DroWolff was given a new lease of freedom of expression and he emâ€" ployed it in criticism of the Versailles Treaty, which he saw would be disasâ€" trous not only for the recently formed German Republic, but for world peace. The German Democratic Party was formed in the Tageblatt office, but Dr. Wolff left it later on the issue of freeâ€" dom of the press. He notes that Dr. Schacht also was one of the founders of the party. There are probably 1,000,000 people in Central Europe today whose life is a2 living hell, but whose only crime is that they are of the same racial stock as that of the Mother of Christ. The only solution is somehow to get them beyond the reach of their foul perseâ€" cutors. This refuge problem is a chalâ€" lenge and can be an inspiration. to democracy and Christianity. Three things are needed, and in order of importance they are: Money, training, land. Given the money, the problem can be solvedâ€"and here is my plan for raising the funds. W ould Issue Postage Stamps To Reserve the Refugees Let the democraci¢és and civilized nations, led by the United States of America and Great Britain, create reâ€" fugee postage stamps of a price greater than their postal value. For example, in Great. Britain the halfpenny postage stamp would cost 1 penny, and the 1‘%d postage stamp would cost 2d. The difference boetween the postal value of these stamps and their cast would be paid by each parâ€" ticipating country into a ctontral fund to be administered by the Interâ€"govâ€" ernmental Refugees Committee I believe that by this scheme a sum of $500,000,000 would be raised quite easily. One of its great merits in my opinion is that it would enable every single person who feels a desire to take action to tax himself voluntarily by using the rofugee stamps, and thus show that democratic and humanitarâ€" ian principles are not confined to words and fine sayings. most and cruiser visitors.
