regarding Poland are decoming clearer with every hour The prevailing impression among t British and French officials is that the Soviet Government hopes through the Polish offensive firmly to establish Baisheviem at the doors of the Western powers.Premiers Disagree.A continuation of the conference this afternoon is eaid to have been necessitated through the failure of the two premiers to agrees on the situation.Premier Millerand ds firm in urging the French policy, which includes the blockade and ths de- tensive measures already indicated.It is stated that Mr.Lloyd George although sot opposed to a blockade fo reluctant to sever definitely all sagetiations with Russia, and.it Le rr believed that Kameneff and Krassin the Bovist emimsaries will be allowed to remain in London for the time being.The premier is reported te be hoping against hope that some peaceful solution will be found.The French delegation planned to leave for France at six O'clock this evening and Mr.Lloyd George an hour later for London where it is stated he will hold a conference with the cabinet.Cabinet Council, London, Aug.9\u2014Premier Lloyd George presided over a full cabinet council on his return to the city tonight from the Lympne conference and reported to his colleagues the result of the conference with Premier Millsrand, of France, and discussed its | in connection with the statement which is to be made in Parliament by him tomorrow.The Independent Liberals held a meeting in the Houss of Commons tonight and passed a resolution protesting against any wprervention against Russia by way of blockade, men, money or munitions.The Independent Liberals in the House of Commons number about thirty.Labor Ultimatum, War between the Allled Powers and Boviet Russia over Poland wouls be \u201can intolerable crime against humanity,\u201d end British labor has warned the British Government that organized labor will be used to de- teat such a war.This decision was reached today at a meeting of the most prominent of the leaders of British Labor, who later issued the following statement: \u201cThis conference feels certain that war is being engineered between the Aliled Powers and Boviet Russia on the issue of Poland and declares that such a war would be an intolerable crime against humanity.\u201cIt therefore warns the Government that the whole industria) powers of the organized workers will be used to defeat this war.\u201cIt was resolved by the Confer ence \u2018 to take such steps as may be necessary to carry the above decision into effect\u2018 The statement advises ail labor organizations to be prepare to senu their leaders to London \u201cto instruct thelr members to lay down their tools\u201d A \u201ccommittes of action\u201d appointed by the meeting will see Mr.Lloyd George at noon tomorrow.The conference, which representes the whole field of labor, is regarded as having presented an ultimatun.to the Government threatening direct action.Many of the labor delegates had hurried home from the Geneva conference to respond to the emergency call for the gathering.Among those present were John R.Chines, former Food Controller and Laborite Member of Parliament for Manchester: William C.Anderson Chairman of the Labor Party in Parliament: C.T.(Cramp, President of the Raïiwaymen's Union: Benjamin Tillett, Secreary of the Dock.Wharf, Riverside and General Workers\u2019 Union, and J.Bromley, Secretary of the Boclety of Firemen and Engineers.The principal organisations represented at the gathering were the Parliamenmry labor party; the Par- Hamentary committees of trades\u2019 unions and the Executive Committes © lot the Labor Party.AEROPLANE AS AMBULANCE Ottawa, Ont, Aug.9.\u2014(Canadian Prom).\u2014The value of the aeropiane As an ambulance was demonstrated at Camp Borden when Lieut.Townley, à member of the Instructions!

Known.Ottawg, Ont, Aug.$\u2014(Canadian Press).\u2014How closely the forests of Canada are related to the prosperity snd security of the British Empire was clearly emphasized at the Imperial Forestry Conference just cone cluded in London, England, accord ing to Robson Black, >f Ottawa, who represented the Dominion.One of the chief conclusions of the entire conference was that the Empire's forest resources and thoss of Canada in particular were very inade- quartely known.An Inventory of the forest re sources was agreed upon.The next Imperial Forestry Conference is also to be held in Canada in 1923, an event which will bring to this country distinguished representatives trom all parts of the Empire.\u201cThe British Government has adopted an admirable policy of forest planting\u201d, said Mr.Black, \u201cbut the main timber harvest cannot be gathered for anihaif a century.Meanwhile, the United Kingdom as the great consuming centre of forest products in the Empire ts forced to import from non-Bri- tish countries alone 75,000,000 pounds sterling of timber per an- num.Obviously the United Kingdom has à maximum interest in what Canada is doing along the line of constructive

inadequate\u201d to meet the situation, according to Assistant- Becretary Shouse, of the Treasury, who is head of that Government Branch He declared the Customs officials were handicapped \u201cboth

territories, he said, but he believed such a plan was the anly situation.Mr.Bhouse argued also that as the stock of liquor in the United States decreased the work of the Customs service increased

this class of manufacturer, more particularly in view of the fact that it is one tn which the city of Quebec is directly and materially interested.In concluding the series, there remains to refute a very generally held fallacy, namely that the prices of Canadian boots and shoes are determined by adding the amount of duty to comparable American prices.En this connection the report admits that under normal pre-war conditions, wholessle prices of leather foot wear in Canada were somewhat higher that ihe wholesale prices of comparable goods made in the United States.Temporarily, it goes om to

which should offer s promising field for the enterprise of Casadian export industries, is Greater Serbia.A commercial delegation from that lle country visited Great Britain in 1018, when it was made clear that British goods were ardently desired throughout the whole of their territory.It was openly stated that they wished for nothing better (han to out their coutitry free from the old industrial domination of the Central Empires This was not n pew desire for, na far back as 1836, at the instance of the Scrbians themselves, the tiret British Consal-General to 1hat Country was ape pointed.It was admitted, notwithstanding, that early efforts to develop commercial intercourse were not & conspicious success; this, it is claimed, being dus not to any lack of desire or endeavor but to the geographic isolation of Serbia, which was overshadowed by the Germanic territories.That state of ecosomic dependence on the Central Powers does not exist today.Another difficult factor ball a century ago was that Serbia was aa agricultural country, and à rather poor one at that, with mo outlets of any international value; and thirdly, the political condition of the country was in à state of constant termoil.All this is changed now, and is still altering greatly for the better.Serbia is three times its former sise, has probably a greater variety of industries, and is politically settled, and best of all, has frontiers accessible directly from the sca, and a full unfettered use of several rivers, including the Danube.Even before \u2018the war Serbia had entered a phase of economic development of a remarkable character.| Agriculturally it was promperous, the rural populations being much better off than in some adjacent countries, and in some respects far better off than the rursl population of Great Britian, owing to the division of land into small emates aud the arcurity of tenure.The financial administration of the country, too, was excellent, Iater, pre-war budgets showing little or no deficit.The Germans were well aware of the emormous industrial pomibilities, for as late as 1918, while still hoping to secure the verdict in the great war, attention was called in German official publications to the excseding- iy rich soll of Serbia and its enornons mineral wealth.The future of the country, therefore, Is a brilliant one, more especially when it is remembered (hat nove of ber old enemies ave in a position to retard her economic expansion or to challenge her frontiers.In a military senne Serbla in now by far the strongest of the Balkan Powers, and the

the Austrians and the Hungarians are already hard at work seeking to consolidate their position in the mew regime of the Gerba, During the occupation of Serbia scores of Austrian Importers and exporters opened offices amd warchounes in Belgrade and other towns.The fact Is sufficient to show how keen they are to secure for themselves this remunerativg market.Apart from the export of manufactured goods to Serbia, there Is a rich field available in that country far the development and exploitation of nstural re- somrces mich as vast forests, and the deposits of gold.sliver, copper.coal, and antimony.British capital Is desired: it bas been invited agsin and again to invest in these virgin\u201d enterprises, and in another, of equal importance, the development of the new Serbian mercantile marine.Serbia is unused to shipping: surely there is in this branch of commerce slone a fine opening for enterprise and capital;

water service, were the subject of comment yesterday morning In a circle ol Québec business men.One of the gentleman taking part in the conversation ls a\u2019 weil known Civil and Hydraulic Engineers who claims tu have intimate knowledge of the water main in question.: In the course of his remarks, he said: \u201cThe 40-inch pipes that comprises the main are in no way to blame for the breaks They are good and sound, and I know what I am talking about, and I had cognizance of the material and tHe whole transaction at the time.\u201cThe fault lles in the absence of s good solid foundation.The joint- Ing in also defective and leaks so that \u20ac the city really desires to get rid of the frequent breaks, it should lose no time In lifting the entire line and have the pipes relaid with be:- ter and more accurate levelling in soHd foundation.\u201cThe most successful man in the laying of the 40-inch main was onc of the City Public Works foremen, named Lyons, who superintended the inying of sixty lengths of the pipe, snd saw that the foundation for the same was solid, and remarked at the time that the foundation work in general was not what it should have been and would later give the city trouble.The sixty pipes laid by this.foreman have caused no trouble of any kind while the pipes on either side of the rest of the line keep on bucking, and will continue ducking until they are taken up and velaid, : Six Breaks in Six Years In answer to the above criticism it wag learned that the accidents which have occurred to the 40-inch main would by no means warran' the raising of the pipe and the laying of a new foundatign.which would involve a very large expenditure.1t is also held that the number of breaks in the big main are not abnormal, when compared with the breaks the old 30-inch main after it was put down during the Langelier regime.As a matter of fact thers have been six breaks in the new main in six years.One occurred in 1914, one in 1918,\u2018one IN 1919, And three since January, 1920.\\ ANOTHER GHILD KILLED BY AUTO Fatal Accident at St.Andre, Kamouraska \u2014 Children Playing on the Road.Reports from 8t.Andre.Kamouraska, yesterday recorded 2 fatal

thelr mission was one of peace, they having intended to camp in the open and were to meet this emergency provided with their own tenis and sleeping blankets.© The big storm however came upon them with such relentless fury of canonading, as to upset their calculations.The hotels were crowded, when it was decided to invade the central police station and the City Hallpolice sergeant in charge of the station.who was overcome with the unusual onslaught and summoned the chicf to his aid.Capt Trudel arrived in due time and the young ladies then told him that they were daughters of Americans representing every State of the Union, at a camp for ladies at Belgrade, Me.They were in Quebec as a joy ride to ses the Ancient Capital of Canada, and with their faces wreathing in smiles requested the Chlef or Police to take them under his protection for the: night.After same debate the chief consulted with the powers that be, over the telephone, and later escorted them to the Council Chamber.Here the young American beauties were welcomed and given the frec- dom of the city.They were told that they were welcome 0 camp their for the night and the next night if they wished.Three cheers were given by the girls, who went back to their automobiles, unpacked their blankets and carrying them into the City Hall chamber, started In to prepars couch room on * floor or any, other

(rita.This ttle mid-Atlantic island was discovered in 1515 by a Spaniard named Juan\u2019 de Bermudes, which gives rise to the suspicion that fit was called after him.Its earlier name, however, was the Isie of the Devils, on account of the storms that voyagerg encountered there.The isles wi supposed also to be infest- od by evil spirits and none of Bermuder\u2019s men mads a landing.Indeel the first landing was the result of an accident nearly a hundred years later when Admiral Sir George Somers and a party of Virginian colonists \u2018were shipwrecked there.They remained for nine months and at the end of that time had fashioned two small ships of native cedar in which they embarked and later reached Virginia safely.But they loft behind two of the party, Christopher Carter and Edward Waters, who liked the place so much that they were @nwilling to leave.When the Somers ships reached Virginia they found the little colony in hard straits and on the verge of starvation.The gallant admiral, therefore, proposed to return to Bermuda and bring back a cargo of the wild pigs that abounded on the isiand and thus save the plantation from extifttion.Before the Mayflower.He died, however, on his way to Bermuda, and the crew, commanged by nephew, Captain Matthew Somers, instead of returning to Virginia kept on to England with the Admiral\u2019s body, having buried his heart in the sland.Arriving there they gave such glowing accounts of Bermuda that the Virginia company determined to colonize the islands, and for this purpose had its charter amended to include islands -within three hundred leagues of Virginia instead of one hundred miles.In purewance of this policy à dand of fifty colonists was sent out on the vessel Plough in 1612, which was eight years before the Pligrims set {torth on their history-making voy- in the Mayflower.When the eet- Hore arrived they were amased to find themselves grested by Carter and Waters and Edward Chard, who had left the ship when Captain Somers visited the island on his way to England.Shortly afterward the Virginia company sold its rights in Bermuda to another company and the development of the island began.From the first the proprietery com: pany had given the colonists representative institutions.dut since they were dependent on it fer their supplies, they found that they were really working for their existence, the company making all the profit.Early Institutions They hag to .buy whatever they needed at exorbitant prices, and had te aogept whatever the company of- tefod them for their crops, the most important of which at that time was tobacco.However, the colonists did have a parliament, and in the end this decame the weapon with which they were able to defend themmives from the gresd of the company and to win economie as well as political freedom.There Were three branches of government as devised by the Bermudans, the Oeneral Sessions Mecting twice & -year and composed of, representatives from the various parishes, the General Asmambly meeting every mscond year.and the Grand Jury, which was perhaps the most important of all, for the Grand Jury had the authority of presentment, without indictment, for any matter or offences within its own observation.It was the policeman and the censor of the island, and sternly were its powers wielded.In 1618 a woman was presented by name on suspicion of Incontinence.A wan was presented because he did not behave himself in church with sufi- cient séemlinesn, and had neglected to receive the Holy Communion.Practically Independeat.These charges were regarded an by no means trivial, for thirty lashes at the church door usually followed.In fact the old political society of Bermuda was a theocrsey.Nevertheleas dt was preferred by the Bermudans to the yoke of the absentee landlord, and gradually the Londen sompany, not finding the venturs very profitable, sold its holdings to the tenants.As the tenants became freemen they refused to obey the laws of the company or acknowledge ts authority in any way.The company retaliated by suspending the sessions of the Assembly for ten yeara But the colonists pressed their claims for rellef before the Court of King's Bench, and én the end the Bermuda Company was dissolved In 1684.Three veara later the Assembly was re-established and has been holding regular sessions ever since.Today there is very slight interfer- once from England with Bermuda.Aw a rule, ft is only when the Legislature snacts a law with a \u2018\u2019suspending clause.\u201d which means that it desires to have the bill referred to the Itiperial Government, that the Governor withholds his assent to any legislation submitted to him.PEERS DAVIDSON BURIED FULL MILITARY HONORS Montreal, Que.Aug.9 \u2014 The

Appearance.It must be a real pleasure for everybody toesee how surely and, considering circumsaness, how rapidly Belgium is returning to her fine working self of other days.The smoke stains have not yet faded from the Cloth Hall of Ypres.Belgian soil still contains many fragments of hostile German steel, the Cloth Hall it.seit shows bravely Its classical ruins.and beneath them the Belgians have just held à fret post-war cattle show.Nothing could picture the heart of peace better than a cattle show, end this year nothing could more splendidly exemplify the undaunted soul of the little nation than that seventeen months since the last hostile shot wag fired for her utter destrue- tion, she rises again to resume her national life purpose.It is done with the seme courage that first drew verely and brutally handled by it than Belglum.The foul feet of the Hun occupied all her soil, save a tiny strip of Wanders near the sea which the king defended.Tt fe not merely in \u2018cattle\u2019 Belglum has recovered and is rushing ahead, says the Boston Transcript.A Brussels engineering fem pointing, to the safe in the steel of which a sap had been eut by oxy-acetylene flame tn the hands of a Hun, said the other day: \u201cThey removed all our records and papers soc we should have nothing for a new start.That was after every tool in the works had been removed and all the machinery damaged.Yet now we are #0 busy it makes my head swim.We had 3,000 workmen before the war! now we have 8.000.From nothing 10 2,000 in a year isn't so bad.\u201d What is true of this engineering work is true all over the country.A whole nation's industries have been remade In a year.Everyone going te Belgium ¢s astonished at the re covery, which.means that Belgium at the present rate of advance will be relatively the most prosperous country in the world ln & few years, and all achieved by hard, unremit- ing work sustained by national prie Belgium today & doing in trad per cent.as much as in

together as masters and men have never worked hcfore\u2014tn bring Liege back to normal.It ix only lack of machinery and material that delays and that won't be for long.At Liege they are building 100 locomotives and 1,200 passenger coaches for the state railways, which testifies anew that he railway troubles of King Albert's country were put to rights with extraordinary ra- pidityz 200 army locomotives and 18,008 trucks having been purchased! from the British as a starter.Another 200 lecomotives are being shipped trom the United tBates and 600 are bytiding in Britain.Everywhere is thé same story of returned prosperity and everywhere the report that Belgium has the least Socialiem of any country in Europe.A sharp-| er measurement of this phenomenal rebirth is given by the Belgian official statement that the damage to Belgian industrial concerns during the plague of Germans was $1.300,.- 000,000.At one works\u2014Marchicn- nes\u2014the Germans removed or rendered useless 57.000 tons of machinery.Today Marchiennes (s overwhelmed with orders.At Antwerp shipping has revived and the wharves are again crowded with moving merchandise.Money is plentiful everywhere.The people don't

nation's wealth.In many industries commerce and finance the 100 per cent.of pre-war times has been reached and in some incriased.Belgium's exports to Holland.France ftaly and Germany now surpass her imports.With England sbe is approaching a balance of trade.A favorable trade balance for the nation is in sight by the end of this year.And after that who can predict where the present national en: thuslasm for work will carry her: None speak of the war.that is taboo in the face of national necessity to redover from it.Political wrangles, which were plenty before August 1914, have largely faded.There la a Socialist party, but it offers no oppo: sition to efforts of reconstruction.In tt all, around it and for it appear: the steady, inspirtng influence of the King and Queen, the most beloved and respected monarchs Belgium ever had.A most illuminating instance of thie splendid national purpose Is the fact that the highly cuhivated lands of Belgium this year will produce o| thelr crop quotas.The resurrection in cities could in some parts have besn anticipated dy anyone knowing the Belgian people.But not so soon and so thoroughly the revival of ag.ricuiture.The Belgian peasant

Raliroad Rate Mivanoes and Grop News.LE (Christian Seience Monitor) .Granting of imcreased radiread freight and passenger rates by the Interstate Commerce Commission has been characterized by leading financial interests as one of the greatéet constructive factors that has developed in many months.And yet the New York stock market made a very feeble response to it.The very moderate and temporary \u2018advances made by some of the railroad iesues could have bean brought about by almost any ordinary constructive mews development if it had been @ bull market instead of a bear market.Another very conse tructive feature was the report of the Department of Agriculture on the condition of the cotton crop, showing an increases of more than 1,000,000 bales over the forecast of a month ago.The stock market wemingly paid no attention to this whatever.Nor has the market res- ponde4 to the very gratifying reports of the eondition of the coreal crops, the total outturn of which will doubtless be far beyond the earlier expectations of the most optimistic.Listening to Bearish Talk In fact, In a bear market like the present only bearish news seems to have any effect.The very best grounds for liquidation in the securities markets are the tightness of monetary deflation.In addition to this fundamental influence the \u201ctreet\u201d is very much concerned over the foreign situation.The break in sterling exchange more directly reflects the sentiment éæ this darti- cular, for the Polish situation 8 considered very serious.It is admitted Ly some bankers that this is strictly & sentimental influence, and that there should be a quick re covery in sterling when it becomes apparent that the Reds can make no lasting headway.Meantime the bears are making the most of the situation in both the foreign exchange and the securities markets The fact that sterling fell off about 50 cents from the high point in Its recovery and is only about 38 cents above its historic low point graphically tells the story of the break.Cause of Sterling Decline A foreign exchange bank official \u201cBeside the Polish troubles and the pressure of grain and cotton bills, another Jraportant factor in the weakness® In sterling, and al) other.exchangée, dust of thdr\u2019 relktioh td sted is the fact that England, for some time, has heen accumulating dollar A.| credits in connection with the maturity of the Anglo-French loan.At present I belleve the English Government is one of the largest purchasers of dollar credits in London.\u201cWhether we like to admit it or not, England is the foreign exchange banker of the world.New York looks to London each day for the fixing of her exchanges rates.1 believe it within the power of English bankers to push sterling above 34 at any time they desire.At the moment there are Jarge offerings of sterling bills with but few bidders.A report from abroad that $10,000,- 000 or $20,000,000 gold was to be shipped here would change the entire complexion of the market.Instead of being no bidders, there would not be at all surprised to nee sterling fluctuate 20 or 30 cents in either direction, but I do not believe England will permit her exchanges to become demoralized.\u201d New York Stock Market Total sales of stocks in the New York trading last month amounted to 13,104,600 shares, or about 3,- 000,000 shares more than In June, but 21,000,000 shares less than were recorded in July of last year, The trading in the month just ended was sbout at the volume in the corresponding month of 1917, when 13,113,800 shares were turned over.There was only one million-share day last month, and that was the first since May 29.In July last year there were 21 mililon-share days.and one of them registered more than 32,000,000 shares.This time last year the stock market had seen 86 milllon-share days, and through July in the current year there have been 54.The best day in July this year was the 37th, with 1,133,200 shares, and the smallest five-hour session was the 21st, with 310,600 shares.There were 26 business days last month, five of them of two hours duration.The average number of shares turned over hourly in July was 115,800, which compares wit 86,256 shares an hour in June, 187,- 000 in May, 264,900 in April, 237,- 600 in March, 212,800 In February, and 187,900 In January, Bond sales in July amounted te 4239,921,000 the first time this year the figure has gone below the $300.000,000 mark.The total sales of bonds in the seven months just ended amount to $2.286,197,000, which compares with $1,912,197,000 in the corresponding period of 1919.Some prominent New York bankers are understood to be now of the opinton that call money in that city is unltkely to rise above B per cent for some time, perhaps will inte Septemder, unless the demand should become much keener, than it .at present.This, however, is red as no criterion as to the cre.oh situation in general, opinion stint being

selling wes in great volume and thers was sctual liquidation.The pressure of stocks was so great thet many of the lead- ors touched the lowest figure of the year.Recoveries of 1 to 4 points were made before the session end- od.Rejection by the Russian Soviet Government of the Allied truce ternis and a break of 7 cents in sterling ware the dominant features.\u2018Bear opérators were successtul in uncovering stop-loss orders and there appeared to be also & great deal of selling of weekly margined holdings.Creation of new low records for many prominent issues discouraged the bulls, and there was little concerted effort to check the decHne until late in the day.Rumors were circulated that loans wers\u2019 being called on pools and individuals whose collateral had been depreciated by the fall in quotations.Large inroads were made in the prices of the steels equip.ments, shippings, oils, motors and dividend-palying railroad stocks.Ster! exchange fell to $3.60 1-4 and continental bills were shaded five to forty points.Total sales approximated 1,080,000 shared.The extensite covering movement late in the day was accelerated by the rally in sterling and easier cone ditions in the call money market.Bonds moved irregularly with some of the convertible issues failing sharply.Domestic and foreign Government bonds were slightly lower.Total sules (par value) were $8,075,000.United States old

thousand disease germs should suddenly begin eating into the life tissues of your body, you would surely need à doctor, writes F.E.Brimmer in the Farm Journal.Yet more than 600 species of insects prey upon the oak tree, and atill we wonder at its strength and vigor.Bo much, indeed, that \u201csturdy as an oak\u2019 has become an advertising slogan.The sturdy oak owes much of its long life to Doctor Woodpecker, nature's skilled wood surgeon.One borer would kill a tree single-handed it left at his deadly work long enough: so will a few beetles.As single mother beetle will prequce nearly 600,000 young destroyers in a summer of uninterrupted activity, Weevils only stunt the growth of the tree and leave it full of holds, an easy victim to other destroyers.Saw files, caterpillars, ants and moths

terrible condition nature sends a physician regularly to each patient.Sometimes Doctor Woodpecker has been known to spend a: many as three days operating on on very bad case, constantly using to advantage his tree-surgery tools Generally his incision is only as deep as the thickness of the bark.Often he slides his apearhill between wea ir or crevices and draws out the worry, leaving no mark
