[" g>torbrnnke iatlu Iwnrè Established 1897.SHERBROOKE, CANADA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1935.Thirty-Eighth Year.KING DENIES HE EVER PROMISED ::\t, EMPIRE TRADE PACTS HEPBURN WILL CANCEL FEES FOR SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS.At Same Time Opposition Leader Declared He Has Not Undergone any Change of Heart with Respect to Ottawa Agreements and that If Liberals Regained Power They Would Seek Important Modifications to Treaties\u2014Government\u2019s Unemployment Insurance and Farm Credit Legislation to Be Debated in House Today.Ottawa, February 1.\u2014Two items on Prime Minister R.B.Bennett\u2019s reform programme come before the House of Commons today\u2014 one having to do with benefits for industrial workers and the other a measure of assistance for farmers.They are the unemploy-1 ment insurance bill, which stands for second reading, and a resolution j proposing an amendment to the Farm Loan Act to facilitate and in-j crease the extension of credit to farmers.On motion of a private member the House of Commons yesterday began a review of the Empire trade pacts and heard Rt.Hon.Mackenzie king, Liberal leader, deny he had ever promised to cancel the agreements if his party came into office.At the same time Mr.King denied he had undergone any change of heart with respect to the agreements, He was still opposed to them and firmly believed they had hampered rather than assisted Canadian trade.If a Liberal Government came into office its first act would be to seek important modifications to the treaties.If these modifications could not he obtained, it would consider whether it was desirable to cancel the agreements or allow them to remain in effect until they expired and then negotiate new pacts.The debate on the trade treaty was launched by a resolution proposed by Joseph Harris, Conservative, Toronto-S'carborough, and promises to continue for some time next week.Some speakers confined themselves to trade figures, Mr.Harris and Minister of Trade and Commerce R.B.Hanson, for the Government, citing figures of increased trade as evi-#- rience of the benefits arising out of the agreements.On the other side, Thomas Reid, Liberal, New Westminster, cited figures to exactly the opposite effect.He contended Canadian trade had declined rather than ncreased since the agreements became effective.Sweeping aside statistics, Mr.King attacked the agreements on nrinciple.He claimed they were hampering the Government in negotiating a trade treaty with the United States, that they had interfered with trade with other countries, that they were based on a policy of high protection and trade restriction and that had the trade policy of the former Liberal Government been continued and the high protectionist tactics of the Bennett Toronto, Feb.1.\u2014Throughout Ontario today school children and their parents were in a happy frame of mind.The annual drain on the family exchequer through payment of examination fees is to be no more.Also, the harrowing thought of examinations in July will not plague the students.Premier Mitchell F.Hepburn yesterday indicated to a delegation from the Ontario Council of the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada \u201cthere will be no fees for examinations in future.\u201d The Hon.L.J.Simpson, Minister of Education, announced the final date for examinations this year, will be June 28th.He said the examination time-table has been drafted at the Department and all tests will end on that date.\u201cFIT AND RUN\u201d THEIF STILL RUNNING Boston, Feb.1.\u2014A \u201cfit and run\u201d thief had a new pair of shoes size eleven and a half.Frank Kenney, salesman in a chain shoe store,.told police he fitted a young man for a pair of shoes and suggested that he walk around a bit in them.The man, still wearing the shoes, dashed out of the loor and up the street without paying for them.CHILDREN HAD A PERILOUS TIME WHEN PIRATES CAPTURED VESSEL Two Russian Guards Killed and British Second Engineer Wounded During Battle for

Hong Kong.Feb.1.\u2014Four Cana-ians were among the seventy-five school-children given a perilous lime today when pirates raided the steamer Tungchow, and kilted two guards and wounded an officer before releasing the ship.They were Bruce and Grant, sons of Mr.ant! Mrs.W, J.Hanna, of Toronto, and Mary ami Ruth Bell, daughters of Mr.and Mrs.John Bell, also of Toronto.The parents were all veteran foreign missionary officials in China, Ten children of United States parents Were also in the group, returning to school after the holidays.ONTARIO WOMAN OBSERVING 10,3RD BIRTHDAY St.Thomas, Ont., Feb.1.\u2014 Mrs.Margaret McCnllum, of this city, who came from Inverness, Scotland, : t the age of three years, celebrates her HKlrd birthday today.Mrs.Mr-Callum lived in Huron County for a number of years, later residing in London, Iona and St.Thomas.Same day Iasi, year: \u2019>; minimum, 115 below.Maximum, Vancouver, Wash., Feb.and Mrs.Cleve Johnson, living near here, became 1\u2014Mr.farmers parente for an immediate and greatly ex panded trade with the Soviet Union.Cordell Hull, Secretary of State, after a brief conference with Alexander Troyanovsky, the Soviet ambassador, issued a formal statement announcing the failure.\u201cIn view of the present attitude of the Soviet Government,\u201d declared the Secretary of State, \"1 feel that we cannot encourage the hope that any agreement is now possible.\u201cI say this regretfully, because 1 am in sympathy with the desire of American manufacturers and agricultural producers to find a market for their goods in the Soviet Union, and with the American citizens whose property has been confiscated.\u201d Troyanovsky re-opened the negotiations with Hull at three o\u2019clock yesterday afternoon* following his special trip to Moscow to review the entire question with high Soviet officials.Five minutes later he walked out of the Secretary of State\u2019s office, obviously downcast, and declining to make any statement to waiting newspapermen.\u201cThere seems to be scarcely any reason to doubt, said Hull last night \u201cthat, the negotiations which seemed so promising at the start must now be regarded as having come to an end.\u201d He added that, it would be for the board of trustees of the Export-Import Bank, which was organized specifically to extend credits to assist in expending United States trade with Russia, to determine whether or not there is any good reason for continuing the hank's existence.HOWARD CLAIMS TRADE PACTS ARE OF LITTLE BENEFIT TO FARMERS &- Sherbrooke Member Declares Government Broke Butter Market by Manipulation of New Zealand Storage Supplies and that British Packers Fix Hog Prices without Relation to Market Conditions\u2014Strongly in Favor of a Reduction in Canadian National Debt Interest Rate.Ottawa, February 1.\u2014The Empire trade agreements have proved of little benefit to the Canadian fanner, Charles B.Howard, Liberal member for Sherbrooke, charged in the House of Commons yesterday during a debate on a motion by J.H.Harris, Conservative member for Toronto-Scarborough, catling for House approval of the pacts.After referring to the burden of taxation and the effect of that burden on smaller concerns, Mr.Howard dealt with some of Mr.Harris\u2019 figures concerning the increase in ham and bacon exports under the Ottawa Conference Agreement.\u201cWhat do you think of a condition under which the farmers\u2019 hogs are under the control of the.British and Canadian packers working together to fix the price, not in accordance with supply and demand, but according to the profits they want to put in their owm pockets?\u201d queried Mr.Howard.\u201cLet us consider butter The farmers of the Eastern Townships, the best dairy section in Canada are more interested in the prices of vnik and butter than in anything else The price of butter today is 2d ti cents per pound.The price of butter on this day last year was twenty-six cents per pound, or 2% cents move.Last year the price of butter went to thirty-one cents, while this year the farmers are on top of a volcano.Everyone is sitting tight and maintaining the price of butter, but if one dealer starts to sell at a lower price butter will fall to the lowest point at which it has ever been sold in the history of Canada.\u201cHow did this Government handle the butter situation last year after going through the Eastern Townships of Quebec when butter was selling at 32 1-2 cents a pound and telling the farmers that the tow price of butter was due to the treaty with New Zealand and Australia, under which large quantities of but- ter came to Canada?\u201d Dr.I.D.Cotnam, Conservative, North Renfrew, \u201cAnd you rescinded?\u201d Mr.Howard: \u201cYou bet we did.The Government said, \u2018Put us in-power and w'e will put the price of butter back to fifty cents a pound.\u2019 The farmers believed them and vot-j ed for them.When the next elcc-! tion comes along what are they j going to do about the butter question?The fellows who slid in on butter will slide out the same way.\u201d Dr.Cotnam: \u201cWhy did you rescind the treaty?\u201d Mr.Howard: \u201cThe duty on butter under the King regime was four cents per pound.That treaty with New Zealand was rescinded.This Government did not say they would not allow Australian or New Zealand butter to come into this country to the detriment of the farmer of the Eastern Townships, and.because of that promise they received many votes.Noxv this Government has placed a duty of five cents per pound ! against butter coming into Canada, j but what has happened?The depre-i dated currency of those countries, 1 as against the gold standard prevailing in Canada, teclmicaliy speaking, has enabled them to bonus butter to the extent of five cents pet-pound, to the detriment of our farmers.\u201d He declared that the buttei situation was handled without any tariff, \"without any consultation with the members of this House, but under an arrangement between the Government of Canada and that of Australia \u201d The member for Sherbrooke charged the Government broke Canadian butter markets by manipulation of Australian and New Zealand stocks held in Vancouver and Halifax warehouses.Antipodean butter, Mr.Howard claimed, came into Canada last year in large quantities and was held in Additional Sport on Page Two.MILITARY EDUCATION BEGAN IN EARNEST THROUGHOUT ITALY TODAY.Rome, Feb.1.\u2014Military education began in earnest today throughout Italy with the motto \u201cEvery citizen a soldier.\u201d Officers in uniform replaced sehoolma\u2019ms and schoolmasters in class rooms.The obligatory military instruction is for the boys oniy, and is divided into three categories, elementary, high school and university.It embraces military history, military mathematics, war geography, and tactics and manoeuvres.A college degree in Italy now is impossible without proficiency in this new subject.Ten thousand Black Shirts today marched in review before Premier Mussolini in celebration of the anniversary of the founding of the Fascist militia.FRENCH OFFER GERMANS EQUALITY UNDER GENERAL SECURITY SYSTEM London Reports State that Fiance Has Been Partially Won Over to British Viewpoint on Methods of Easing Tension on European Armaments\u2014Problems of Currency Stabilization May Also Be Reviewed at Gathering of British and French Statesmen.L SIX YEAR FIGHT OVER CONTRACT BRIDGE ENDS IN DIVORCE.Chicago, Feb.1.\u2014It was contract bridge that doomed their romance |from its inception, Mrs.Allen Blaz-, er, aged twenty-two, testified in \\ Superior Court.She and her thirty-one year old !

NOTES NOT THOSE OF HAUPTMANN First of Defence Handwriting Experts Disputes Evidence of Eight Fellow-Craftsmen as to Authorship of Notes which Form Cardinal Point in State\u2019s Charges of Kidnapping and Murder of Child\u2014State Seeks to Enter Hospital Record of One of Alibi Witnesses.Flemington.X.J.February 1.\u2014 Bruno Richard Hauptmann\u2019s first handwriting expert today disputed the evidence of eight opposing fellow craftsmen and declared Hauptmann was not the writer of tbc fourteen Lindbergh ransom notes.John M.Trendley, East St.Louis, 111., who qualified as an expert over objections of the State yesterday, gave his opinion shortly after resumption today of Hauptmann\u2019s trial for the kidnapping and murder of baby Charles A.Lindbergh, Jr.Court was delayed in opening by a conference in the judge\u2019s chambers.There was also a slight delay in the beginning of Trendley\u2019s testimony because the State wanted to get into the evidence a hospital record regarding the.testimony of Louis Kiss, one of Hauptmann\u2019s alibi witnesses.Edward J.Reilly, chief defence attorney, asked Trendley: \u201cAs a result of your study and examination of the ransom notes and the Hauptmann request writings, are you in a position to render an opinion as to whether or not Hauptmann, this defendant, wrote the.ransom notes?\u201d \u201cIn my opinion,\u201d said Trendley, \u201che did not.\u201d The ransom notes represent a cardinal point in the State\u2019s case against Hauptmann.The first note was left on the window sill of the Lindbergh nursery the night the baby was stolen, March 1, 1932.The State contends that the man who wrote that first note also climbed a ladder at the window of the nursery, stole the baby and dashed it to death as the ladder broke on the way down.Eight experts qualified by the Stai/c gave their positive opinion that Hauptmann wrote that note as well as the thirteen others which were received by Col.Charles A.Lindbergh through divers means.One of the State experts, Albert S.Osborn, declared the evidence that.Hauptmann wrote the notes was \u201cirresistible, unanswerable and overwhelming.\u2019\u2019 and «Tamlpurcnts the same day.An eight and a hnlf pond baby girl was horn to them.Their daughter, Mr,'.Roy Duvall, became the mother of a four pound girl.POLICF, SKEPTICAL ABOUT STORY TOLD BY YOUNG LADY New York, Feb.t.-Di: eovery of Mrs.Faneito Rivkin, forty-three years of ago, bound and gagged in her burning apartment yesterday, drew from Thomas P.Brophy, chief five marshal, today the statement that \u201cthere are some peculiar circumstances in her story.I am not satisfied at.all.\" .Mrs.Rivkin, who gave an interview a few days ago concerning iho spending habits of a woman, resembling Mrs.Bruno Richard Hauptmann, who visited her beauty parlor, told police she had been shackled in her blazing home by a man wearing a wig and false mustache.As the intruder fired the blaze she quoted him as saying, \u201cyou will burn now, damn you.\u201d Police are continuing their investigation as are officials of the fire department.Her proffered testimony to the Hauptmann prosecutors has been declined.CHARGES INTIMIDATION OF DEFENCE ALIBI WITNESSES Flemington, N.J., Feb.1.\u2014Defence counsel, introducing the first of their expert testimony today to counteract the State's evidence that Bruno Richard Hauptmann killed the Lindbergh baby, charged intimidation of the prisoner\u2019s alibi backers.Edward J.Reilly, burly chief of the defence staff, said: 1\u2014\u201cSeven of my witnesses have been intimidated by men \u2014 \u201cplug uglies\u201d\u2014who came to their homes and claimed they were representing the State of New Jersey.\u201d 2\t\u2014 He expected to call several additional alibi witnesses, but \u201cif I should give you their names you can be sure they never would get here.\u201d 3\t\u2014 Because of the prosecution's tactics against his witnesses putting police on their trail while still keeping them under relentless cross-examination \u2014 he \u2019might call fifty more persons to testify.This would prolong the trial \u201ctwo or three weeks.\u201d Reilly said the \u201cplug uglies\" showed no credentials.\u201cThey warned our witnesses to stay out of New Jersey if they knew what was good for them,\u201d he asserted.\"I'll say this much: I know they did not come from Attorney General Wilentz or the prosecution staff, but 1 have a pretty good idea where they came from.\u201d The seven witnesses were understood to live in New York, where Hauptmann's alibis place him on March 1.1932, when Churies Lindbergh, Jr., was stolen from bis crib at Hopewell, and on Apr.:\tP.ri\u2019J, I when .$50,000 ransom was paid in |vain.i Reilly planned to continue the defence ea.-c today with U-Mitmiy that Hauptmann did not write the fourteen notes leading up to the ransom payment.His first witness was John M.Trendley, a handwriting expert from East St.Louis, 111.Trendley qualified yesterday, just before court recessed for tbc night.He had no Continued on l\u2019aee 2» ELEVEN KILLED WHEN A PASSENGER PLANE CRASHED INTO HILL, Berlin, Feb.1.-\u2014Eleven persons were killed when a passenger plane crashed last night at Poderjuch, near Settin.The dead are the plane\u2019s crew of three and its eight passengers, all Germans.The ship was a low-winged plane of the German-Russian Airways, en route from Koen-igsberg to Berlin.Fog and rain clouds forced the pilot to fly low.The plane ran full speed into a bill 450 feet high.ondon, February t.French circles reported today a communique has been drafted reaffirming Germany's right to arms equality within a system of general security, ami will he issued at the conclusion of the Anglo-French ministerial conference tomorrow.The British Foreign Office declined to comment.The British intimated, however, that an official statement may be expected tomorrow indicating how the British and French intend to proceed in their efforts to ease the tension in Europe.It was understood also that .Neville Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Pierre-Etienne Flandin, French Premier, will have an opportunity to discuss currency stabilization at a week-end party given by Sir Corner Berry, London publisher.AGREEMENT REGARDED AS BRITISH VIEW VICTORY London, February 1.I he Premiers and Foreign Minister* of i ranee and Great Britain closeted themselves at Number 10 Downing'\u2019 Street 1er the conference the British hope will make an important contribution to the stability of Europe.Tentative Anglo-French agreement to co-operate in seeking shnul* taneous European accords for both armament limitations and security* was revealed by a French spokesman as the negotiations opened.Preliminary conversations early this week in Paris between Sir Geoffc* Clerk, the British ambassador, and French government officials werd ___________________________ credited with winning France over at w least partly to the British viewpoint.Diplomatic circles here regard the tentative agreement as an important victory for Great Britain, as it signifies that France is now ready fo withdraw its declaration of last April to the effect that it would decline to discuss armaments until the security question had been settled.This stand was embodied in a note which Louis Barthou, the former Foreign Minister, who was assass,-nated at Marseilles, addressed to the British Government.The importance which Great Britain attaches to the parleys today and tomorrow is indicated by tha fact that Stanley Baldwin.Lord President of the Council, is joining Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and Sir John Simon, the Foreign Secretary, in the discussions.Quel - ® LONG PLANNING uebec, February 1.\u2014How much longer will the debate on rural redits, which the Government has made it clear it does not favor, be prolonger?That was the question being asked today by members of the Quebec Legislature.With the majority of members representing rural constituencies, it bas been taken for granted ever since the opening of the session that the discussion on this matter would be lengthy.Thurs far Minister of Agriculture Adelard Godbout has spoken twice on the subject; Paul Sauve, Conservative member for Two Mountains, whose motion for establishment of the system is the cause of the debate, three or four times; while Premier L.A.Taschereau and Maurice Duplessis, K.C., Conservative Opposition leader, have given different expressions of opinion.In brief the discussion amounts to this.The Opposition claims that no amount of Dominion Government legislation such as now' exists will ever accomplish the good a provincial system would bring, while Gov-| eminent benchers insist creation of rural credits here would mean but a duplication of the work being car-} lied on by the Dominion Farm Loan ! Board.From the welter of discussion to D\ti TL\tr t c-i I which the question has given rise, I ersonal Charge or lensc oitu-j ;hc> salient feature is that the Gov- ation Created by Armed Revolt, i\th,as given expression to its I belief the farming class is being well \u2019 looked after, while the Opposition uphold the agricultural class\u2014\u201cthe backbone of the country\u201d\u2014is being neglected for others \u201cwhose weight carries more in election times.\u201d Opposition members were pleased with what they referred to as the \u201cVictory of Verdun.\u201d The victory consisted in the private bills committee of the House voting fourteen to thirteen in favor of restoring to Verdun the election system which prevailed until two years ago, despite the fact fffiat Premier Tascbe- REICH FEARS BECOMING INVOLVED WITH LEAGUE STATE CHARTER Arrived in Baton Rouge from 1 Washington Today to Take!
