of Cabinet to Meet Defeat\u2014Labor Failed to Show Expected Strength in Industrial Districts.R onve, Nov.15.\u2014The fall of the| strategic Ethiopian city of Harar was reported by Italian! correspondents on the East African j front today to be imminent.After a pitched battle in the Fafan river area announced yesterday, Colonel Ma\u2019.etti\u2019s column in southern Ethiopia was engaged in sweeping the region clear of ambuscades and raiders The correspondents said Maletti with his \u201cFlying Dubats,\u201d was already so far advanced in the high valley of the Fafan that he was \u201conly forty kilometres or about twenty miles from his immediate objective.\u201d.This movement may occupy several days, it was said, giving time for reinforcements to come up STERNER RESISTANCE THAN EXPECTED IS ENCOUNTERED London, November 15.\u2014Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin today gained a thfee-to-one decision on his demand \"lor a mandate of rearmament and reconstruction.Late returns today showed the National Government commanding a clear majority of the 615 seats in the next House of Carrmons, with the Likelihood its final lead would be at least two hundred.Ml but two of the Cabinet Ministers were successful.Former Prime Minister MacDonald went down under an avalanche of Labor votes in Seaham, Emanuel Shinweli going in with a lead of 20,498, and his son, Malcolm, Colonial Secretary, was defeated by Labor in Ik si et I aw, Nottinghamshire, which, like Seaham, is a \u201cmining constituency.\u201d Labor almost everywhere out Conservative majorities by thousands of votes and captured a nuar.'ber of seats, but did not show the strength of 1929.Most of the rural constituencies, as had been expected, were faithful to Ccnservatism, and the Government was in a stronger position than at the close of the count last night.David Lloyd George, veteran ^ Liberal statesman, was again returned for the Carnarvon district, Wales, he has represented since 1890.In this election he leads a small group of Independent Liberals.His daughter, Megan, was re-elected in the Welsh constituency of Angie-Jey.Home Secretary Sir John Simon chained Spen Valley for the Liberal National group in the Government, but his majority fell from 12,056 to 642, His successor at Geneva, Anthony Eden, Minister for League of Nations Affairs, was elected by a large though reduced majority in Warwick and Leamington, his margin being 24,816.By a strange turn of fortune.Ramsay MacDonald's victorious opponent in Seaham was Minister of Mines under MacDonald in the last Labor Government.\t* Both MacDonalds are in the cabinet\u2014the only two Ministers to suffer defeat\u2014and both fought grim battles.In Seaham the former Prime Minister had to struggle night after night for a hearing and frequently his meetings were broken up in wild disorder.He returned to London today confessing himself a worn-out man, with the pinched face of one who has been through a tremendous ordeal.Sir Herbert Samuel, defeated Liberal chieftain, said today the Labor party had handed Darwen over to the Conservatives.He was beaten by S.H.Minto Russell, Conservative.\u201cThe result,\" declared Sir Herbert, \u201cis not an expression of support for\u201d the Government as the number of votes cast against it was 21,000 whereas those for it amounted to only 15,000.And this result,\u201d he added, \u201cexposes the imperfection of the present voting system and indicates the need for electoral reform.\u201d The Liberal party in its election manifesto advocated proportional representation.In the London boroughs Labor gained eleven seats.\u201cI had hoped labor would do better,\u201d commented Herbert Morrison, former Minister of Transport, who regained his seat on South Hackney.He leads the Labor majority in the London County Council.Winston ChurchilL prominent Conservative, was again returned in Epping with a majority of 20,149.He has been in past cabinets as First Lord of the Admiralty and Chancellor of the Exchequer and is mentioned for the next.James Maxton, eloquent leader of the Independent Labor party, held his seat in the Bridgeton division of Glasgow and his colleague, Jack McGovern, was also successful in Shet-tlestone.Ernest Brown, Liberal National Minister of Labor, held I^ith for the National Government in a straight fight with D.C.Thomson, Labor.He is famed for having the most powerful voice among Cabinet Ministers.The Minister Baldwin and his colleagues appealed to the country for a mandate to support the League of Nations, to fill the gaps in British defence services and to continue a policy of gradual reconstruction at home.\u201cThe present general election,\u201d said thes.aid the Times today, \u201ccaused none of the damages or disturbances predicted for it.But no one who weighs the responsibilities of British foreign policy can regret that the elections are over.\u201d Other newspapers predicted the results would strengthen the British stand at Geneva for collective action through the League of Nations against aggressor nations.The Daily Herald, Labor organ, declared : \u201cThis we know already, that the Labor party has magnificently recovered its morale since the disaster of 1931.Its new strength is at the service of the nation in the difficult years which lie ahead.\u201d The Daily Mail,\" Conservative newspaper, commented as follows: \u201cThe striking feature of the vote as already announced, is the heavy poll of the Socialists in most quarters and the reduced majorities to the Government\u2019s credit.\u201d Facing the neW Cabinet on the i Opposition benches will be many of j the formel- Labor Ministers who ' were exiled in 1931\u2014the veteran J.R.Clynes, former Home Secretary; A.V.Alexander, Labor\u2019s first Lord of the Admiralty; Herbert Morrison, former Minister of Transport; and at.least forty of the rank and file.Other Labor leaders, headed by C, R.Attlee, parliamentary chief, George Continued on Page 2.ARMED PATROLS OF POLICE RESTORE ORDER IN EGYPT Demonstrations which Resulted in Death to Four Persons and Injuries to 150 in Their Two-Day Course Reported \u201cUnder Control\u201d Today.Cairo, Nov.15,\u2014Armed patrols of police brought quiet to prevail today oyer the anti-British demonstrations which resulted in death to four persons and injuries to 150 in tiheir two-day course.Cairo itself was calm, with no evidence of the tension which mounted Wednesday with the original \u201cIndependence Day\u201d disorders and developed yesterday into a clash between police and demonstrators in which one Egyptian student was killed.Despite the insistence of Egypt\u2019s powerful W\u2019afd Nationalist party fer the resignation of Prime Minister Tewfik Nessim Pasha and a halt to British influence in Egyptian affairs, officials said the situation was \u201cunder control.\u201d FALL OF STRATEGIC ETHIOPIAN CITY OF HARAR HELD IMMINENT

the native defenders.On the southern front, where Ethiopians were reported to have appeared with tanks and machine guns, the Italian column in the upper Fanfan river region was proceeding THREE BRITISH SEATS ARE WON BY CANADIANS AGAIN CHOICE OF BRITISH PEOPLE Turning back attacks from all quarters, Rt.Hon.Stanley Baldwin, Prime Minister of Great Britain, yesterday led his National Government to an overwhelming victory in the British general elections.Although losing several seats, early returns today indicate that the Government will have a majority of well over two hundred.Only two Ministers, Ramsay MacDonald, former Prime Minister, and his son, Malcolm, Minister for Colonies, met defeat.LATEST STANDING OF BRITISH PARTIES CANADA\u2019S DIRECT RELIEF TOTALS QUITE A LARGE SUM

of Charles Wilson, Lake Shore mine employee, were burned to death when fire broke out late last night.The children are Russell, aged twelve years; Reid, eleven years, and Korine, eight years.The father, who was due for work at the mine on the eleven o\u2019clock shift, had left, home earlier in the evening and the mother hal also left home to spend the evening with friends in Kirkland Lake, telling the children to go to bed.Origin of the fire will probably never be known.The shack was situated in a scattered settlement outside Kirkland Lake and the lack of water facilities made it impossible for firemen to do anything to prevent (lie flames from spreading to two adjoining homes.Gordon Hubbard, one of the volunteer firemen, dashed into the building before it collapsed but was

RELATIONS OPENING TODAY Concluded.Washington, Nov.13.\u2014 Amid protests over expected tariff reductions, the long negotiations for a Canadian-Amerioan reciprocal trade treaty moved to a climax today.Prime Minister W.L.Mackenzie King, of Canada, sped here to sign the pact at 3:30 p.m., E.S.T., in President Roosevelt\u2019s office in the presence of the full United States Cabinet.Secret.\",.» of State Hull was nominated to sign for the United States.The treaty, first reciprocity agreement between the two nations in more than half a century, is expected to become effective by the first of the year.The provisions of the pact will not be made public until after the text has been telegraphed to Ottawa for simultaneous publication there and in Washington, probably Sunday.State Department officials donned formal attire to greet Mr.King on his arrival here by train about noon.The officials, expressing no concern over a threat of a court lest of the constitutionality of the Reciprocal Trade Act, under which the treaty was negotiated, indicated a belief that the pact was the most important achievement in the administration's trade drive.The threat came from a Florida agricultural group riissastisfied with tariff cuts granted Cuba in a similar treaty.Other American interests, as well as some in Canada, objected to concessions they expected to be made at the expense of domestic goods.Representatives of American cattle and lumber interests were among the objectors.Secretary Hull and his colleagues took the stand that the benefits of a broad increase in trade would outweigh any disadvantages to particular groups.cessions possible.American business men long have complained against Canada's system of customs valuation.The Canadian pact is the seventh such agreement to be negotiated by the United States.Yesterday the Brazilian Senate ratified the Braz-ilian-American agreement.Treaties with Cuba, Haiti, Belgium and Sweden already are in operation.One with Colombia has been signed but not ratified.DETAILS OF TREATY TO BE MADE PUBLIC ON SUNDAY Ottawa, Nov-.15.\u2014Expectation heer was that Prime Minister Mackenzie King would sign on behalf of Canada the reciprocal trade treaty with the United States at Washington today.The Fermier left Ottawa yesterday afternoon destined for the United States capital.The formal ceremony of affixing signatures will take place in the White House with Secretary of State Cordell Hull signing on behalf of President Roosevelt.No inkling of what the treaty embodied was given out during Mr.King\u2019s hurried return to Ottawa.It was stated that simultaneous publication in Washington and Ottawa would be given on Sunday night, so that the treaty details might appear in the newspapers of both countries on Monday morning.Previous to boarding the Uain for Washington Premier King declared that conversations between Canada and Japan with a view to terminating the trade hostilities were proceeding saitsfactorily.He stated he felt confident that within a short time this other obstacle in the way of an extension of Canada\u2019s trade would be removed, to the mutual advantage of both countries.Satisfaction was expressed by the

himself as perfectly convinced that this hybrid aggregation had no possible chance of gaining control of the Quebec governmental machine, Mr.Taschereau pointed to some of the potential dangers if such a victory were possible.Mr.Duplessis would be Prime Minister he said, but could not name his own Cabinet.This was to be done by Mr.Gouin.\u2018\u2018If the Premier and one of his colleagues disagreed, what would happen?Mr.Duplessis could not discharge his troublesome minister and the result would be chaos in administration,\u2019\u2019 declared Mr.Taschereau.The trade agreement being completed between Canada and the United States was referred to by the Premier at Knowlton.He saw in the treaty the means of opening a wide market in the United States to Canada\u2019s natural products.Canada, of course, would be called on to to make some c.nceSsions to balance the benefits received.The Workmen\u2019s Compensation Act and the Women\u2019s Minimum Wage Act were also endorsed by the Premier, who said that Quebec led the world as regards labor legislation.Hon, R.F.Stockwell, the Provincial Treasurer, dealt, as might be expected, with the financial aspects of the administration, which he linked closely to education.Despite alarming drops in the revenue of the province he proudly declared, not one e.ent had been cut off the educational budget.This, he claimed, had been of tremendous assistance to the municipalities us it had avoided the necessity of their increasing the school tax rates.The Provincial Treasurer also had d to the bene-om the creation of the Dairy Commission,

established by the Fascist organization for food.Similar action wag taken in a number of provincial cases.Talk of an Italian boycott on foreign goods crept into the columns of the Italian press.As each country closes its commercial channel to Italy, informed, sources emphasized, Italy will reply in the same fashion.Spokesmen for informed quarters spoke more often of an eventual \u201carrangement\u201d for settlement of the crisis.Many looked for a decisive battle in East Africa to crush the Ethiopian defence and enable Italy to save its territorial problem by taking the land it desires, paving tha way for an ultimate settlement.MAY BLOCK PROPOSED AIR MAIL TO AFRICAN COLONY Rome, Nov.15.\u2014Italy\u2019s proposed airmail service to her colonies in Africa may be blocked as an additional sanction, it was reported unofficially today.REICH ASSUMES CONTROL OF TRACE IN WAR MATERIALS Berlin.Nov.15.\u2014 Import and export of arms or war materials of any description were banned by a Government decree issued here today.Under the terms of the new law, all transactions involving war materials will henceforth be under control of a special commission on imports and the War Ministry.An official communique said that the new law is analogous to those in effect in most other countries to supervise the transit and export of arms.It also will allow the Reich to give effect to the ban long since announced on the delivery of arms and munitions to belligerent states.LAVAL RENEWS DRIVE TO RESTORE AFRICAN PEACE Paris, Nov.15.\u2014 A diplomatic truce in negotiations toward settlement of the Italo-Ethiopian conf.ict ended today.Laval\u2019s first step, before seeking anew to bring peace between Italy and Ethiopia, it was understoxi authoritatively, would be to attempt a settlement of the European situation arising from the East African, conflict.He sought an end to tension, in the J'/editerrariean.The Premier\u2019s hands also were full of domestic affairs in his

Dominion.The per capita debt in Quebec was olnc-cd at $13 and that of Ontario at $143.In the meantime the Opposition forces were busy In filling the last breach in their ranks in the Eastern Townships

reports from the southern front.The Italians were described as advancing rapidly, without encountering thus far any serious Ethiopian resistance.Observers said that if the invaders continued to progress at their present pace, Jijiga and Harar\u2014key positions for the Ethiopian defence\u2014soon would be endangered.Weight was given to this belief by a Government communique, issued at Addis Ababa, reporting a number of Italian planes bombed Daggah Bur yesterday in the advance, Dr.Robert W.Hockman, American missionary in Ethiopia, removed most of his medical unit from Daggah Bur to Jijiga.He reported by telegraph that wounded men were pouring into his hospital, requiring the services of another physician.The Ethiopian army headquarters here was informed that troops under

Trial on Charge of Manslaughter in Connection with Death of Antonio Doyon Killed in Motor Car Accident Last May.Antonio Masson, of this city, alleged driver of the motor car that carried Antonio Doyon to his death on the Sherbrooke-Lake Park highway on May 25 last, will stand trial at the next session of Court of King's Bench on a charge of manslaughter.Young Masson appeared before Judge J, S.Couture in the Magistrate's Court this morning for voluntary statement.A week ago the prosecution concluded its preliminary hearing evidence and the Judge granted an adjournment until today after dismissing a motion by the defence for non suit.Masson was placed upon his guard when he appeared for voluntary statement and told that anything he might say could be used against him in the event his case went to trial.\u201cI have nothing to say,\u201d he said, and added that he had no witnesses.The Judge stated that the Crown had produced sufficient evidence to warrant binding the accused over to Court of King\u2019s Bench.The benefit of any doubt at a preliminary hearing.it was explained, was given to the Crown and not, as is the case when a man is on trial, to the accused.Masson\u2019s bail of five thousand dollars will be renewed.Antonio Doyon, nineteen years old, of this city, met instantaneous death early on the afternoon of May 25 when the automobile in which he was a passenger swerved off the highway at the Twin Hills, halfway between Sherbrooke and Lake Park, crashed through a strong cable fence and overturned in the ditch.Doyon was riding in the rumble seat with nineteen year old Lucien Phaneuf.He was precipitated out of the machine and broke his re;k.In the front seat of the car were Antonio Massoq and the owner of the roadster.Gerard Morin.Morin claims that at the time of the accident Masson was at the wheel, having been permitted to drive shortly after the party of four left Magog to return to Sherbrooke.The four young men had had a quantity of beer and a drink of \u201cwhisky blanc\u2019\u2019 during their morning\u2019s joy-ride to Magcg and back, the court was told, Masson, exonerated of all blame at the coroner\u2019s inquest, was later arrested by an order from the Attorney-General's Department at Quebec.ROCKEFELLER DISCONTINUES CHURCH GIFTS Sees Religious Sectionalism as Divisive Force and An Obstacle to Development of Spirit of Christ Amosig Men.WORD RECEIVE» MISSING WOMAN FLYER IS SAFE New York, Nov.15.\u2014Clinging steadfastly to the belief that inter-denominationalism is the best servitor of Christian religion, John D.Rockefeller, Jr., has broken the traditional practice of his father by terminating his annual monetary gifts to the Northern Baptist Church.In a searching letter to the Northern Baptist Convention, written March 7 last but revealed only at this time, the son of the founder of one of the world\u2019s greatest fortunes informed the church henceforth any future gifts would be only to specific agencies of the church.\u201cI have long felt,\u201d he wrote, \u201cthat this denominational emphasis is a divisive force in the progress of organized Christian work and an obstacle to the development of the spirit and life of Christ among men.\u201d To hold young people, Rockefeller said, who are largely unconcerned with denominational distinctions, the church must work with them \"in relegating the non-essentials to a place of secondary importance and stand with them for the founda-mentals of Christian duty.\u201d Rockefeller, the largest individual donor to the church, has in the past made annual donations ranging from ?250,000 to 81,000,000 to the general budget of the Northern Baptist Convention.Despite his large contributions, Rockefeller was not free from occasional criticism from within the church itself.In 1927, Rev.Dr.T.T.Shields, of Toronto, president of the Baptist Bible Union of North America, charged that Rockefeller was sponsoring a plan of reorganization of the church which would make of it \u201ca religious department of the Standard Oil Company.\u201d In reply Rockefeller issued a statement that he had no connection with the reorganization plan.OPPOSITION TO

extent.Increases in the various sub-indexes were as follows: coal from 85.3 to 87.2; coke from 83.3 to 83.4, and wood from 80.1 to 80.3.The level maintained by fuel prices throughout the months of

procedure and arrangements had grown up with Imperial Conferences, and there was no reason why this should not be done with meetings between the Dominion and the provinces.Hon.Norman Rogers, Minister of Labor and National Health, and Hon, Fernand Rinfret, Secretary of State, had been entrusted with *he preliminary work for the Conference, \u2022lust before concluding the brief and hasty interview with the press the Prime Minister remarked, with some emphasis and a smile, that another important reform already effected by the new administration was the abolition of a monopoly of wisdom and action bv one member of the Ministry.Each member of it, he declared, had his proper share of responsibility and scope.Then came another announcement which will be received with satisfaction by members of Parliament and by the press, that he had arranged with Major Gregg, Ser-geant-at-Arms of the House of Commons, to have the large room back of the Speaker\u2019s Chair and across the corridor, known

heavy-losses, with its leader, Sir Herbert Samuel, and its two chief whips losing their seats.Party leaders had varying degrees of success.Prime Minister Baldwin was returned unopposed in the Bewdley division of Worcestershire; C.R.Attlee pushed up his majority for Labor in Lisnehouse; Sir Herbert Samuel, the Liberal chief, was defeated by a Conservative in Dar-wen after a hard fight; and the British Communist leader, Harry Pollitt, was easily beaten by the Labor nominee in Rhondda East.Labor\u2019s first gains came from the industrial constituencies of the north, with heavy inroads in Manchester and Sheffield.But Labor failed to touch Birmingham, traditional stronghold of the Chamberlain family, which went solidly Conservative in its twelve divisions.In London, where Labor controls the Council, the party made a few gains, but lost East Fulham to the Conservative son of Lady Astor.The south coast towns remained almost solidly Conservative.The mining areas of the west rolled up Labor strength as was expected.No Labor candidates entered the northern Ireland constituencies, and in five of them straight fights developed between Conservative and Republican or Nationalist Abstent-ionist candidates on issues entirely different from those in Britain.The voting was marked by violent clashes in two constituencies.At Lurgan, in Armagh, police made a baton charge to stop fighting near a polling-booth.In Fermanagh and Tyrone, a bus and many cars carrying voters to the polls were attacked by gangs of men.Three Conservatives were injured.The Government scored a victory with unexpected ease in Woolwich West, where its Minister of Health and propaganda chief, Sir Kingsley Wood, was returned by a comfortable majority.The seat had been regarded as doubtful.Another surprise was furnished by R.S.Hud-on, Minister of Mines, who substantially increased his majority \u2014 the only Minister to do *o.In most urban seats however, Conservative officials declared they had expected Labor to make heavier gains.\u201cThe country stands firm for the Government,\u201d said the Daily Telegraph.\u2018\u2018The Socialist gains were on a much smaller scale than the least optimistic of Government supporters had expected.\u201d Most \u201ckey\u201d Ministers of the Government were assured seats in the next House of Commons.Like Prime Minister Baldwin, Waiter Runciman, President of the Board of Trade, received an acclamation.Safely elected also were Foreign Secretary Sir Samuel Hoare in the Chelsea division of London, Dominions Secretary J.H.Thomas, Minister of Health Sir Kingsley Wood, Lord Eustace Percy, Minister without Portfolio, Oliver Stanley, President of the Board of Education, Neville Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Anthony Eden, Minister

Three-Fold Policy.Scotstown, Nov.15,\u2014Following faithfully their three-fold policy of no liquor, no paid-for votes and no campaigning on Sunday, Payson A.Sherman and his supporters are carrying on an active and energetic election campaign, which will terminate on Monday, November 25, when Mr.Sherman stands before the voters as Conservative-Gouin group candidate for Compton County.Since his nomination at a duly constituted Conservative convention on Saturday last, at which he was the unanimous choice of the meeting, Mr.Sherman has been touring the county.His meetings have attracted much interest, and he has been given a cordial reception wherever he has travelled.In accepting the nomination Mr.Sherman said he wouM do so on condition that his three wishes were respected throughout the campaign.First he would not tolerate liquor.None of his supporters or workers were going to hand out the cheap! liquor which is characteristic of so many campaigns.He was ready to stand upon his own merits and any votes which had to be bought he did not want.The third point which he stressed, and which is being strictly observed, calls for quietness on the Sabbath.No meetings are being held on the Lord\u2019s Day.Whatever ho has to say he will say during the week days.Mr.Sherman was nominated at a very enthusiastic meeting, which waa presided over by A.M.McKenzie, of Scotstown, and Albert Turcotte, of East Angus.Speaking on Mr, Sherman\u2019s behalf were Senator Rufus Pope, of Cook-shire, Hon.Sam Gobeil, of La Patrie, Major A.L.Pomeroy, of Compton, and Alf, Martineau, of
