trickle of butter and fat products to the German consumer.Now, experts affirmed, the Reich must face the prospect of empty domestic bread bins by April.To get the wheat to make the bread that Germany needs means going abroad\u2014and there lie grave difficulties.The stringencies imposed on German households in preserving dwindling food supplies were disclosed yesterday by the issuance of ration cards for butter and lard.Under new orders the allowances of fats will be prorated according to the size of families.Purchases will be limited to eighty per cent, of October consumption each month, starting January 1st.Agricultural estimates agreed Germany must incrase wheat importations after having reduced them in 1935 to 160,000 tons as compared with 605,000 tons the year before.By April, according to estimates considered reliable, the Reich's wheat reserves will have been exhausted.But, advised experts of the Ministry of Economics, food purchases would drain Germany\u2019s last gold reserves.Peelers have been put out for^;________________________________________ economic aid abroad, especially to Great Britain.' 1 '\t\u2018 * Great Britain\u2019s Attitude.1 PRODUCTION OF PIG IRON

not proof Germany\u2019s economic quandary arose from the nation\u2019s vast rearmament programme.In resiponse, German economists contend the whole recovery programme of the Nazi regime is so dependent on War Ministry contracts that disaster woulfl follow sudden suspension of rearming.War industries are booming and it is the Nazi party\u2019s proud claim that unemployment has been reduced from 6,000,000 at the start of Nazi rule in 1933, almost to one million today because of the introduction of compulsory labor and military service.Hence, in the German view, the Reich must maintain its military programme or suffer chaos.As one escape from the vicious circle, Finance Minister Hjalmar-Sdhacht and Joachim von Ribben-trop, Ambassador to London, have preached the gospel of colonies.V\t\u2014\u2014\u2014^ Return Of Colonies No Solution.|' Whatever merits are contained in the proposition Germany\u2019s war-lost possessions be returned, authorities declared, it would take

the Duke of Windsor to appear.The dogs flushed two photographers from under a brush pile near the edge of the golf course and surrounded them until police officials arrived.The former British ruler, informed of the search, laughed heartily oyer the incident.Later he said he might pose for the cameramen tomorrow or Monday.The Duke of Windsor, intent on building himself up and holding his weight at a healthy 142 pounds, arose early today for a vigorous round of setting-up exercises.His friends said the abdicated monarch intended to regain his vitality in every possible way.The trying days when be struggled between love and Empire have left their mark, they explained.His regular programme, after the setting-up exercises, calls for a round of golf and nine-pins.Then he submits to the

from the chateau.He whistled and sang and yodeled wdth the Baroness de Rothschild during the game.After she.won the match with little trouble they dashed back to the chateau where movies were being shown.At the end, the strains of \u201cGod Save the King\u201d floated out through the night and the lights began to go out.The Baroness\u2019 dog, Chew-Chew, and Edward\u2019s Cairn terrier.Slippers,

Holy Father Reluctantly Ordered Invitations Recalled \u2014 Will Meet Cardinals Individually in His Sickroom, Vatican City, Dec.19.\u2014Pope Pius XI, reported recovering from partial paralysis of his lower legs today cancelled his usual Christmas eve audience with the College of Cardinals and the Papal Court.The seventy-nine year old Holy Father reluctantly ordered invitations, issued yesterday, recalled upon the advice of his physicians, prelates said.Informed sources said the Pontiff was influenced by the fact that every unusual exertion during the last few days had been followed by a period of Weakness.Instead of receiving the cardinals, the Pope will see them individually during the next few days in his sick room.Again last night, doctors kept a.constant vigil over the Pope, nearing the close of his eightieth year, to quiet his sleep when shortness of breath caused him to gasp and stir in his bed.Within and outside the Vatican, Catholics speculated over the Pontiff\u2019s successor, when prelates in the Holy See disclosed that Cardinal Pa-celli, Papal Secretary-of-State, had taken oyer temporary direction of ecclesiastical affairs.The realization grew Pope Pius might never recover completely.He passed a reasonably calm night, gaining much more rest than the night before, but reliable reports said he had not slept, soundly Please turn to Page 2, Col.5 Windsor Mills, Que., Dec.19.\u2014 | Local authorities remained mystified, today over the fate of six-year-old Jean Louis Nault, son of Mrs.J.Emery Nault and the late Mr.Nault.of Greenlay, who disappeared on Thursday afternoon.The tiny toti was last seen when he left his home to go sliding and it is feared that he might have fallen into the St.Fran-, cis River.Charges of dynamite were set of?in the river today in an effort to recover the lad\u2019s body in the event he drowned, but these proved of no avail.A posse of men, organized on the evening of the boy\u2019s disappearance, has searched the neighborhood, but no trace of the missing youngster has been found.GRANBY MAN INJURED Granby, Dec.19.\u2014Severe burns were suffered yesterday by M.McKenna, twenty-two year old, son of Mr.and Mrs.A.D.McKenna, of this place, while on duty as assistant foreman of the stemmery department of the Imperial Tobacco factory.The injury was sustained when his foot slipped and his left leg wfent into a tank of boiling water up to the knee.Dr.P.A.Leduc, the factory physician, attended to the burns and reported that while not seriously injured Mr.McKenna would be laid up for several weeks.Washington, Dec.19.\u2014The United States navy seeking to build up its fighting strength, faced double delays today in a threatened lack of steel and uncertainty over what will happen when the London naval treaty expires.Secretary Swanson said President Roosevelt, weighing the building- of two new battleships, has decided to put off a decision until after the London pact dies on December 31.The President is free to order the laying down of keels, under an Act of Congress, if the new floating fortresses are warranted by the building activities of any other power.The navy was snagged again in its quest for materials to build ship?already approved.Steel firms bid in only one-quarter of the 8,784 tons of the Shell-resisting metal sought for ship construction.Copper contracts had gone begging two weeks ago.In a lengthy meeting with his Cabinet yesterday, President Roosevelt considered both problems.Differences of opinion were expressed today for the shortage of steel bids.High naval officers blamed the Walsh-Healey Act, which sets up wage and hour provisions for firms filling government contracts of $10,000 or moi-e.Secretary Perkins, however, attributed the falling off to a revival in the demands of private industry for steel.Walpole Island, Ont., Dec.19.\u2014 \u2018 Indians of the Chippewa and Pot-tawattomie tribes, inhabitants oil this island in the Snye River for many years, feared today a continuing northeast wind might drive grass fires into their valuable and extensive tracts of woodland.Accustomed to grass fires, the Indians have never had cause to fear them before.But a blaze which started Monday and which was sweeping a five-mile tract today made them fearful lest one of then-main sources of revenue be cut off.The wind was blowing the fire directly toward the ash and hickory woods.UNITED SUPPORT GIVEN BRITISH ATTITUDE ON NON-INTERVENTION Press Unanimous in Declaring that Despite Its Admitted Weakness, Non-Intervention Agreement Is Only

ils tactics against rebellious Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang, ordered tonight that punitive military operations against Sian-Fu rebel headquarters be reopened tomorrow unless Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek is released.\u201cThe Government\u2019s punitive expedition, bombing operations and any other form of attack if deemed necessary, recommences Sunday morning, if the Generalissimo is not released before then,\u201d a spokesman announced.Three more days of grace in which to end the rebellion and release General Chiang had earlier been awarded by officials to the mutinous young marshal.The time extension came just as the previous \u201cfinal\u201d ultimatum to Marshal Chang demanding the Generalissimo's immediate return expired.Dr.T, V.Soong, brother-in-law of the imprisoned Chiang, was understood to he ready to leave Nanking for Sian-Fu where Marshal Chang has held Chiang prisoner since the mutiny of his troops a week ago.Although the National Government had set a deadline of six p.m., .O a.m., E.S.T.), for the release of their chieftain, an authoritative spokesman had expressed open skepticism Chiang would be released at that time.The additional days of grace, it was believed, were given Chang to allow completion of a compromise understood already to have been tentatively agreed on.\u201e Despite the seemingly well-v grounded hope of an immediate end to the revolt, crack divisions of the loyalist army tightened .heir grip on the rebel stronghold of Si-anfu.Should negotiations fail completely and the three-day \u201carmistice\u201d expire without the Generalissimo\u2019s return, they were under orders to smash through to his rescue.One notable victim of the mutiny, in which it was first reported the Generalissimo himself had been slain, was officially announced to be Shao Yuan-Shung, political historian and member of Chiang\u2019s staff.Shao died on December 13 as a result of wounds received during the coup d\u2019etat, Shao had edited

uproarious congressional session.The adherents of the military \u201cstrong man,\u201d Col.Fulgencio Batista, drove the measure through the House, of Representatives in two votes each by 100 to 43.The first vote was on the bill as a whole and the second passed it paragraph by paragraph, thus sending it directly to Gomez for the signature he has declared he would not give.If Gomez should veto the bill, supporters of Batista vowed they would move to impeach him for interference with legislative acts.Gomez gave as his reason for his promised veto his belief that the bill, by providing funds for army-taught, schools, would bo the means of educating young Cubans in the j \u2018\u2018Fascist manner.\u201d Such an eventuality Batista, , \u201cfather\u201d of the plan, has denied, as-! sert.ing the army would be placed in I control of the schools only to insure I greater pedagogic efficiency.' The bill, providing for a nino-! cent tax on each bag of sugar, would i give the army an estimated revenue ! of $1,000.000 annually to open and j maintain rural schools.Under Cuban law Gomez will have ten days in which to study the measure.If he has not signed it nr vetoed it by that time, it auto-matiealy would become law.j Detroit, Dec.19.\u2014Strikes in sev-!

and organizations, whatever they may be; It is UNANIMOUSLY* RESOLVED that no organization, society, celebration, festival, carnival either for charitable, social, sport or publicity purposes, shall be allowed to use the words \u201con the Occasion or under the auspices\u201d of said Centenary Celebration, with the intention of deriving a revenue, without having previously obtained a special authorization from IDs Worship the Mayor or the Cl tv Council \u2022.f Sherbrooke.\u201d MAYOR 01 SHERBROOKE.Toronto, Dec.19.\u2014Canadian mining stocks on the Toronto Exchange had their big and only blow-out of the week on Tuesday, sweeping upward on one of the strongest buying waves of the year.But the fact that the bulk of the metal listings declined in the succeeding three sessions, largely erasing the bullish implications, left market observers a bit mystified about the source of the Tuesday strength.The golds advanced nearly four points in the exchange index, but all except a half-point has since been lost.Bease metals and oils held better, the miscellaneous mines index retaining all but about one and a half points of their nine-point advance of Tuesday.It was the widest jump of the year for the group.Although there have been eight sessions this year showing greater share turnover, the number of transactions of Tuesday, 7,628, was the second largest in the history of the exchange.The week just closing was the best cf the year for the oil listings of the mining sectiom Royalite gave the small fry strong leadership to close at 847.75, where it showed a gain of 87 for the week.Far from holding their own, the senior gold group suffered substantial losses and some of them were offered in quantity.Dome went down 82.50 at $48.75 while Lake Shore declined $1.75 and McIntyre $1.Some of the medium-price golds retained part of their Tuesday gains.On Friday the gold section of the Toronto market was rocked lightly by the discrediting of the Rubec assays.The stocl; of neighboring properties came in for some nervous selling-.There were no losses of importance however.A net gain of $1.65 for Hudson Bay was the best showing in the base metals group.Industrial shares held fairly steady through the week, registering a net loss of about a half point in the exchange index.Volume was heavy on days of advances and comparatively light on days of declines, sugesting underlying strength.Consolidated Smelters was prominent with an advance of $4 to $79.50, reflecting the week\u2019s sharp gains in the price of the base metals in London and New York.Steels and foods were off, while utilities and banks displayed fair strength.In the liquors, Distillers-Seagrams and Industrial Alcohol \u201cA\u201d had gains of fifty cents to $1 and Walkers common declined nearly $2.Tha oils declined.In the foods the widest swing?were a gain of $2.50 for Laura 8ecord and a loss of $1.12 for Fanny Farmer.11\t\"\"\t\t\tv TORONTO MINING EXCHANGE\t| i .1\tOPENING AND 11 A.M.QUOTATIONS ON MONTREAL AND NEW YORK MARKETS j The following quotations of today\u2019s prices on the Toronto Mining Exchange\t\t are furnished by Frechette & Co., 22 Wellington St.North.Yesterday\u2019s Aldermac.Alexandria .Base Metals .Big Missouri .Bobjo Mines .Central Patricia .Chibougamau .Chromium .Churchill .Coniaurum .Dalhousie Oil .Dome Mines .Eldorado .Falconbridge .Glenora .God\u2019s La,-e .» .Granada .Greene Stabeli .Hardrock Gold.Hollinger .Home Oil .Howey Gold .Jackson Mauion.Kirkland Hudson.Kirkland Lake .Laguna Gold .Lamaque Contact .Little Long Lac.\t.Lebel Ore .Lake Shore .Macassa .Malartic Canadian.McIntyre\t.McKenzie Red Lake .Mining Corporation .Noranda .O\u2019Brien Gold .Parkhill .Paymaster.Perron Gold .Preston E.Dome.Read Authier .Red Lake Gold Shore.Roche Long Lac .Shawkey .Sherritt .Siscoe Gold .Sudbury Mines .San Antonio .Stadacona .Sudbury Basin.Sullivan Mines .Sylvanitj .j____ Thompson Cadillac .Peck iughfcs .Towagamack .Ventures\t.Wright Hargreaves .Close\tOpening\t11 a.m.1.57\t1.59\t1.04 .01\t.04\t.04 .25\t.25\t.25 .55\t.56\t.56 .20\t.19\t.19 4.30\t4.40\t4.30 2.35\t2.30\t2.32 1.30\t1.30\t1,30 .06\t.06\t.06 1.70\t1.70\tlYO 1.31\t1.35\t1.45 .48 ~ t\t48%\t48% 2.15\t2.18\t2.15 11%\t11%\t11% .25\t.25\t.25 .90\t.90\t.88 .28\t.28\t.28 .39\t.40\t.40 2.83\t2.81\t2.80 13 Vf\t13 Vi\t13% 2.85\t2.90\t3.14 .59\t.59\t.59 .42\t.42\t.42 2.00\t2.01\t2.10 .65\t.66\t.69 .98\t.99\t.99 .15 Us\t.15\t.14% 7.15\t7.25\t7.15 .16%\t.17%\t.17% 58\t58\t58 7.10\t7.20\t7.40 1.62\t1.65\t1.65 39%\t39\t38% 1.90\t1.95\t1.90 2.75\t2.80\t2.SO 72%\t73\trjro 11%\t12\t12% .23\t.23%\t.23% 1.08\t1.07\t1.05 2.05\t2.02\t2.06 1.30\t1.30\t1.30 4.55\t4.50\t4.50 1.37\t1.36\t1.34 .22\t.22\t.22 .78\tira\tA9 2.60\t2.63\t2,70 4.50\t4.60\t4.55 .02%\t.02%\t.02% 2.30\t2.33\t2.33 .86\t.92\t.92 5.55\t5.40\t5.35 2.05\t2.05\t2.05 3.45\t3.40\t3.40 1.7Ô\t1.80\t1.95 5.15\t5.15\t5.15 1.22\t1.24\t1.25 2.80\t2.85\t2.8-5 7.55\t7.50\t7.50 PRICES AND DETAILS OF SHERBROOKE MARKET A (ni I sane: 8169,400 City of Three Riv ers > V> c7c s E R I A L B O N U S Dated Nov.I.1936 Maturing Nov.], ]937-1960 and May 1, 1966 Tliese bonds arc a direct obligation of the Citv of Jhree Rivera and have been approved bv tiic Quebec Municipal Commission.W p offer these bonds subject to prior disposal if, as and when, issuer! and received by us and subject to approval of counsel.Particular» and price» upon requett.HANSON BROS.INCORPORATED Erlabliihexl T.F.Davidson, Sherbrooke Representative, 233 St, James Street UNITED .SUPPORT GIVEN BRITISH ATTITUDE ON NON-INTERVENTION Continued from Page 1.article by its diplomatic correspon-¦ dent.\u201cDuring the last few weeks,\u201d the paper stated, \u201cmen in the infantry and artillery regiments stationed at Munster and Minden have been ;

theoretically there are sixty- x heirs to the papacy.Actually, however, there are few from 'whom the «election would be made.Advanced age.birth outside Italy and diverse other barriers to the highest

Elia Dalla Costa, Archbishop of Florence, and Luigi LavitranOj Archbishop of Palermo.t Although Pacelli is the most prominent of the cardinals by virtue of his office, Vatican prelates said his name

tract can be set.West must lose the spade ace, two diamonds, and at least one club.But North and South did not play their best defense.Perhaps, unlike you and me, they did not see all the cards.Opening lead of the jack of clubs was made in response to South\u2019s opening bid.South won this with the ace, and West played the king.South, thinking North might be able to ruff, returned

And yet, the one is implied in the other.The consciousness of one\u2019s own unworthiness may well suggest the question: Is it possible that the Lord of heaven and earth loves me?David felt this very keenly: \u201cWhen I consider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, Lord, what is man that Thou visitest him?\u201d This is the natural reaction of the thoughtful mind as it contemplates the Infinite.I am reminded of a description given by a man who had reached the summit of the Matterhorn.Where he stood was brilliant sunshine, and the great mountains on every hand stood out clear and beautiful; but he could see far below him a long, deep valley that was filled in with a heavy mass of clouds.To him those clouds were one of the loveliest features of the scene, for the sun was sinking low and the whole skyward surface of the cloud was glowing with crimson and golden light.How different did this same cloud appear to the people in the little valley?To them the heavens looked cold and forbidding.They could see nothing of the glorious vision above.Now, are we not, too often, very-like these people in that Alpine valley, looking up at a cloud hanging over us\u2014it may be a cloud of sorrow or disaster \u2014 and fancying that for us the sunshine of God\u2019s love was shining no more?Possibly the cloud is due to our own folly and disobedience and for-getfulness of the things that really matter; and i the whole heavens seem dark and i cold.But if bv faith we could reach the mountain-top, we should find the sunshine of the divine love forever undimmed about us.The coming of the Christ-Child dissolves all our doubts; though, for that matter, God\u2019s love was manifested ages before towards His chosen people, and more especially such faithful souls as Abraham, Joseph, David.Nor was God without witness even in the so-called heathen world.The love which Aristotle traced in expanding circles from the the more exclusive family affection to the general kindness of man to man is a genuine quality of the highest humanity.Still, Aristotle, with all his wisdom, had no conception of God as Love.Here it is that Philosophy failed.Nothing but the actual appearance of Immanuel could bring help and comfort to the souls of both Jew and Greek, bond and free, and give assurance of a transcendent affection that availed even for the unthankful and the evil.Nature itself proclaims the Creator\u2019s abounding love and care.Herbert Spencer ended one of his latest articles upon the past and future of religion in these words: \u201cAmidst the mysteries which become more mysterious the more they are thought out, there will remain the one absolute certainty that man is ever in the presence of an Infinite and Eternal Energy from which all things proceed.\u201d We, of course, call this \u201cEnergy\u201d God, whose nature and property is love.In Jesus Christ that Love assumed its highest manifestation in a perfect human life; and the atonement wrought by Him is that same Love working out man\u2019s truest welfare through toil and pain and death.It is, indeed, a helpful, practical, uplifting doctrine: \u201cGod is Love.\u201d As we look at the world about us, its beauty and its harmony, we cannot but recognize a Heavenly Father\u2019s love and guidance.As we contemplate the life of our Redeemer, we recognize a goodness which is far beyond us, and yet very near us; a goodness which finds expression alike in the simplest acts of kindness, and in the mighty forces that direct the orderly march of the stars through space.Yes, God is love.Storms may assail us, trials and troubles afflict us.Yet, whatever happens we may rest assured that individual misfortune, or even world-disasters, cannot for one moment invalidate that unshakable truth which has weathered the storms of ages\u2014God is love.\u201cThere\u2019s a wideness in God\u2019s mercy Like the wideness of the sea ; There\u2019s a kindness in His justice Which is more than liberty: For the Love of God is broader Than the measure of man\u2019s mind, And the Heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind!\u201d $4000.00 PRIZES in the Dr.Chase iParadol Contest See Particulurs on Page Eight.Night and Holiday Calls I Lennoxville, 143* W ; Sherbrooke.292-J.Leo M.Watson & Co., Reg\u2019d.INSURANCE Fire.Automobile, Liability, Etc.Sun I^it'a Building.Sherbrook#, Phones!
