[" Weather Forecast Clearing And Cold VOL.CLX.No, 44 PULPWOOD EMERGED HAD ~ A NUMBER OF SUPPORTERS BEFORE ROYAL COMMISSION While There Were Three Members Sitting Yesterday But Two Did Not Understand The Witnesses Who Gave Evidence In French, The Chairman And An Attorney For Certain U.S.Interests Conducted The Business\u2014Several Settiers Gave Their Views On The Matter The Royal Commission continued tis session yemerday and considered a good deal cf evidence mainly in {favor of the embargo.Ths presence of Mr.R.W.McLelMan raised | the strength of the Commission tv three but since two of the members, could not understand French the business was conducted by Mr.Plcard and Mr.Gregoire, representing certaln American interests.Witnesses favoring the Embargo were submitted to severe handling by My.Gregoire, but the houest matter of fact replies frequently sscuncerted the attorney.The arguments against the Enibargo were ingenuousiy summed up by Mr.Masse.dir.Masse stated tuat he was a& farmer\u2014 and how can 1 live,\u201d he asked, \"if I connot tind a market for my wood?\" Uther settlers, who presumably tilled their soll, placed less reliance vn the sale vf wood.They declared that the wealth of the country should be conserved and they con sidervd the most effective way nf doing that wes by the imposition of the embargo.Forceful evidence was given by Col.Ray.He sald that many of the peuple who represented themselves ta be settl-rs were not set- tiers at all, but merely pulp wood farmers.They secured lots and thelr only cource of Incone was trom the sale of timber from those lots.He app-eciated the position of the true settier and he was convinced that such a settler could always obtain & fair price for his wood In Canada.The first witness in the afternoon session was Mr.Turgeon who staled that he was a settler.The President told the witness thst they were anxious to hear his opinion regarding the Embargo.Before touching upon the embargo the witness said that he was anxious to bring forward another matter.He said that thers were certain cor- rorations who were cutting wood that did not come up to the dimensions insisted upon by the (overn- ment.This was a great mistake.he considered, dlnce Rt meant that in future years thelr supply of wood would be absolutely exhausted.The president asked the witness {f he knew of any specific incident where this had been donc.Witness #214 that he knew of plenty but he was not prepared to inculpate Individuals or firms.He reiterated his statement and said that the cut- ting was being done on a large scale.Witness thought the embarg would favor the farmer and settler.1¢ it were not impossible he thought some sort of restriction should be placed upon the cutting of wond.Tn his opinion the settler should be exempted from the embargo.\u201cI¢ you are going to omit settler.\u201d the President said, \u201cthe embargo would be a farce and there would br no point in this Commission sitting.\u201d .Mr.Picard pointed out to tha witness that the amount of timber exported to the United States am- counted approximately to one mil- llon eonvde.He asked the witness it he thought the Canadian mills could absorb that amount in the coursd of a single year.Mr.Turxeon maid that the amount could ha easily abrorbed by Canadian mills.The second witnesr called in the afternoon was Mr.E.C.Brochu.He stated that he was the lessee of the why take shamoes Just anywhere ?The Nouse of Ensiusion Matson Blanche - Cor, hocnen Mow, & Farge 5, certaln Crown Lands.He dealt only in ptip wood since there was very littie timber on his land suitable for other purposes.\u201cAs & matter of fact you have to rely upon spruce for your fortune,\u201d sald the President.\u201cPrecisely,\u201d the witness snawer- ed.The witness sald that he leased 12.600 acres of timbered lgnd In Megantic and Lotbiniere.In an- r to a question from the Presldent he sald that If he were still young he would farm part ot his land and exploit the remainder for timber.The President asked what the position of the witness would bs if the embargo was applied.The witness said that it would be unfavorable to him.He thought the Canudiun milin would not pay the price the American firms offered.In the districts he was talking of he agreed that there was very little pulp woud for sale.The farmers cut down their old trees for firewood and the serviceable wood was required fur construction purposes.Mr.Brochu stated that If the companies concerned in the manufacture of paper would pay the price to the settler they paid for the cutting of timber on their own limits the settler would be more than satisfied.Mr.Gregoire, an attorney, representing certain American Interestsintervened at this point.He said \u2018hat there were many people like Mr.Brochu who exploited ; thels wood wisely.4 An Important Witness.One of the 3nust convincing witnesses of the afternoon was Mr.L *.Decourval, of Victoriaville.Mr.Decourval spoke forcefully and with uvlivioua sincerity.He said in reply to questions that he was noi concerned with his own case\u2014hs= was thinking rather of the good of .he province.He expressed himself emphatically in favor of the em- borgu.If it were imposed he was -ure that many new industries would.spring up ja the province.He wan a farmer.and he realized \u201chat it was his duty to give evidenea that would benefit e majority of the people in the province and not merely himself, The witnesa pointed to the tremendous augmentation of popula tion that had occurred In the districts where industries had heen er- tablished, Mills were built to nb sorb the timber available and as a direct result hundreds and thousands of men were given employment.As an Indirect result the genuine farmer found an increased demand for his products.\u201cI am speaking on the Interests af the province,\u201d declared the witness, \u201cbut I am not blind to the fact that the embargo will benefit me.T have sufficient perception to ne that if new Industries are es- \u2018ablissred 1 shall profit,\u201d He con- \u201cned by saying that If other farmers were sensible they would re- aline the position too.Unfortunately many of them could not look ahead.They saw Immediate sain wut they could not see the doom \u2018hat awnited them in the future.Mr.Picard, the President sald.that witness wan in n fortunate no- sition.Ho had cut his wood wine- Iv and he relled for his profit on farm producta.Witness agreed that that was the case.Mr.Necourval was ahout to vacate his seat when Mr.(iregnire fired a question at him.The attorney wanted to know how many new milla would be estabilahed if the ehhargn were imposed.Witness mointed out that the question waa a foollsh one.Before he could give any definite Information it would be necessary to make extensive inveatigntions and take many questions into consideration.Mr.Gregoive sald that the Canadian mills consumed on an average tive million cords of wood a year wherean the American took one mil.tion cords.\u201cThen, retorted the witness, \u2018your question resolves itself into a elmple mathematical problem.The new mills would he of a sufficient numher to ahsorb the ona mililnn cords mt present exported.\u201d The reply was greeted with laughter and it appeared for the moment that the lawyer would not risk any more quentions.After A moment's deliberation he return: eA ta the sttack amain.Do you think the Americans will fin4 à tubatitute?\u201d ' \u201cIt won't be our wand at any ate\u2019 renlled the witnee.\u201cAnd you faver thé embargo on \u2018ut wood?\" \u201c1 tavor An embargo on raw material\u201d Aaciared the witness em.abaticaîly.For à moment Mr.Gregoire an.\u201csnared to he nonpuised.At length se arked.\"Would pharge on grain?\u201d \u201cCartainly.\u201d declared the witnose, \u201c¢ thera wera fnaufficient for my awn countrymen.\u201d The next witness to he called was Me, F, 1, Turgenn.Mr.Turgenn hogan te œlve evidenca hut Mr Tamara won ranpying AN Nn ranvap.\"ation at the time with his noir.\u2018vonen, Afftar {an Ohaleman had alled him ta ardre the evidense vas ramped, Mr, T.orwenn said Ne (Continued On Page Three.) you favor ap |! EXPERTS READY WITH REPORTS ENRLY IN MARCH Figures On Amount Of German Capital Abroad Have Been Prepared PROPOSED GOLD BANK Mortgages On The State Railways And Farming Of Monopolies Paris, Feb, 20\u2014The comuulttee of experts on the German reparations problem now hope to be able to present thelr report during the first week in March.Premier Poincare has indirectly communicated to the ekperts the desire of the French Government for as early a decision as possible and they wll do all they can to satisfy him, The accountants who have been figuring On the tuial amount of German capital placed abroad hav presented their unanimous repor to Committee No.2 headed by Reginald McKenna.This committee hus discussed these findings and hupes to put its own dec sions on paper before the end of the week, The sub-committee on the proposed guld bank has completed the preparation of its statutes for the consideration of the full committee.Thus, this question is practically dispcsed of as the sub-com- nittee\u2019's report will be probably accepted with little If any change.Sub-Committeé On Budget lo The sub-committee on the budget also has got together the figures applying to the German budget fo: 1924-25, This work presents a formidavie document.Its translation will requife much time, but it will be d scussed orally while the translators are engaged in putting it Into the required language.After the fu!l committee has heard n summary of this report the sub-committee will go ahead with the preparation of =a similar document on the German budget for subsequent years.This will put the Reparation Commisalon in pessession of information enahling\u2026\u2014it-to Judge just what pught to be the Cerman revenue from taxation to meet its own requirements and to pay reparations.The experts on monopolies will be heard tomorrow and consideration ot this question by the full committee will follow the questions of the bank and the budget.Ultimate Amount Tv Be Paid.It appears virtually certain that the experts will exclude from thelr teport any refrence to the total amount Germany can ultimately pay on reparations.They will con- tine themselves to a plan for stabilizing the currency through a new bunk of issue, a study of the budgets for the number of years which their report will cover, the guarantees that Uermiany can furnish for, payments such as mort- gauges on the state railways and (arming of the :monopolies And na nearly us they can get at it the amount of capital that Germany now has abroud.The conclusions rruched on these questions wili Le the

to-night azair.st Imperial preference which in effect, he atated, supported by 8 maze of figurer, was not worth a candle, .Lord Reauchamp stated that on dutiable and free Canadian importe from Great Britain the average import duty wae twenty percent while the average rate of United States goods going to Canada was only 14 ner cent and that notwithstanding the preferential rates that are sup- nosed to operate in favor of (reat Rritain.The South African duty on British zood.«, eald Lord Tenuchamp, had heen Increased in many camen since 1914.In Australia the preference on Britieh gonda

paid on Pritish exportæ to Australia than before.The Duke of Devonshire am a pro- tagoniat for tariffs.deprecated the! suggestion that the arsistance granted Great Rrita!n hy the Dominions wan unappreciated.He expressed the hope that the Government would he guided hy the great results al- resdy achieved and would further develop Imperial trade.Lord Arnold, Uniler-Secretary for the Colonies agreed for the most rart with Lord Heauchamnp's figures After a long analysis of ail the as pects of tariffs and preferences, Lard Arnold was of the opinion that the dominions on the whole had arranged their tariffs so as to favor Rritish goods nn against forcign goods but the duties in many cases were atill high after the preference wan deducted while In the cases where it has heen decided to protect Dominion industries, either no preference or an Insignificant preference had heen accorded.He wan not suggesting a complaint, however, against the Dominions, who, he agreed had completa

Ray went on to say thal wot twenty miles from Quebec wa: a stretch o fland that had once been timber producing country.This land had been given over to bogus settlers.These nettlers had eut down the trees without discrimination and today that tract wae barren.There were not more than six farmers In the whole district.Had that land been properly protected or had the settlers all been genuine the land would be valuable to thin day.Instead of that i was worthless.4 There was à tract of land on the North Shore, continued the witness.where the company: did everything in their power to conserve the timber resources.From that tract they cut many trees that were over a hundred years old It was Intercating to notice.he ahserved amid laughter, that these treen had heer comprrell with ears of corn, The President nrked the witness If he wna in favor of the share The witnesn snit he was, Te wn- unrenervedly an! emphatienity = le tavor of It.Asked to give his ren- wont he said that he would.The Caso for the Embargo.His main reason for supporting the embargo was a reason thu: would appeal to all true Canadiaps.He thought it was a great pity that a raw material should be nent to the United States and that Canaâtans should lose the profita resulting from the manufacture of that material.Unmanufactured timber was worth only a few dollars a cord but when that timber was manu- tactured Into paper It was worth forty or fifty dollars a cord.The difference in the two prices went to the workmen and the manufacturers of the country in which the manufacture took place.This was one of his reasons.Hin wecond reason wan that the wood, which represented the weaith of the country, did not belong to a generation but to alt generations.If they let thelr wood go to outside coun.trien they were selling the birthright of their children and their grandchildren.: At thia point the Phesident mentioned to Col.Ray that the majority of the previous witrfesses had atat- eâ they would be in favor of the embargo If they could be sure they would find a ready and profitable market in Canada.Hs asked If in the opinion of the Colonel such n .market could ba assured.Col.Ray said that he was sure the séttiers would be treated rightly by the mill owners.He knew the American business men dealing in pulp wood.He knew them so well that he would not sell a single cord to them unless he received payment (n advance, There were plenty of fleme In Cannda mnxioua to obtain weod and they could be reilsd upon to give an homest deal.In reply to a queation he mtd that he dealt in wood on his own accnunt, He had recently had 3000 cords of Pulp wood to sell and he had cold that to a Canadian mill.- question Questioned regarding the price ob | Dennle and Jos.Beaubien, \u2018

the wood.He was not afraid of the embar- 50.he declared, and he was quite Sure that If it came into force there would be no drop in prices.Commissioner Molellan Witness pointed out that a new mill was being constructed in the rence pond there was reason to ve t another n projected, sw lll was Commissioner McLIellan asked if tire failure to impose the embargo would prevent the establishment of these milla, Witness did not think It would but he thought it would have a very material effect upon the joint production of all the mills, it the embargo was not imposed he thought the totaf production for tho province would not increase as it normally would.Col.Ray said In answer to a question that Price Bros.did everything in thelr power to conserve their timber resources.Asked for specific Information he said they only cut mature trees.On thelr limits they were careful to see that the wmaller trees were not cut.As n result they were able to get the:r wood in very much the same way an If tney were harvesting crops.lle stated that Price Bros.went to the outside markets for a good ileal of their timber.This was not necessary slice thelr limits were extensive.He understood they had recently adopted a plan to take ail the timber offered to them by settlers ns long as the price was not prohibitive.At the new mills in Chicoutimi he thought their arn.nual consumption would be about 100,000,000 feet a year.Commissioner McLellan asked how many feet he reckoned to the cord.\u2018Witness replied about 600.Regarding other methods of conservation he sald they were very particular to apnsint trustworthy fire rangers and guards.He thought Mr.Nisbet of Price Bros.Std.could give fuller information on this point.A Question Answered.At the conclusion of Col.Ray's evidence Mr, Gregoire said that he would like to ask a question.He wanted to know It the witness would be in favor of the Government fix.LE à price for pulp wood.\u2018The witness said that ho would, be against such & measure.He pointed out that where the government interfered they usually made 1 meas of matters.Mr.Gregoire asked If that same reasoning would not apply to the smbargo.Col.Ray had no hesitation in

Soo\" of that day and was regarded as one of the sights of London.Here was exhibited from 1809 un- tit 1326 the celebrated elephant \u201cChunes,\u201d which had deen engaged for the first production of \u201cBluebeard\u201d at Covent Garden.When \u201cChunee\u201d went mad ft required a fite of soldiers and 18?bullets to kill him, Pall Mall used to be & rar place for shows, espec'ally of ple- tures.In the old \u201cStar and Garter\u201d house was exhibited from 1814 the Waterloo Collection of portraits and battle scenes, with helmets, mbres, firearms.and other spoils.At No, 121, Campenani showed his Etruscan and Greek antiquities in reoms fitted up ar \u201cChambers of the Tomda\u201d Pall Mall has at one end Meriborough House (the residence of Queen um; and, at the other end, Trafalgar Square with the National Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery, all of which Celonial visitors will want to mse.Trafalmar Square, it may be mentioned, ts the very centre of Londen's; houses of entertainment.The Pan- theon, In Oxford Street, was another old place of amusement.Built tn 1770 le used to be celebrated for ts masquerades, the money squandered at the last of these be- \u2018ng computed to be (20,000, \u2018\u2019although tradesmen go unpaid And the industrious poor are starving.\u201d Here, In 1782 a hal masque, got up by a noted elawn of the period named Delpini took place in hemor of the coming of age of the Prince of Wales afterwards and In the following year there was exhibited the balloon in which tunard! had made his first suc.cesfful ascent.Miss Linwood's famous collection of needlework pictures was shown here In 1796.8, previour to its final removal to Leicester Square.In the early yvars of the nineteenth century 's were the only two enhibl- tfons in London, and it ie remarkable that they sheuld have been run by women both of whom died ne the great age of ninety.Very (ew people remember old Madame Tussaud; {indeed it was only th other day that the splendid veteran actor, Bir Bquire Raneroft, declared that Ne was probably the only man still living who had seen and conversed with her.The Hanover Bquare Rooms were probably started as a counter-at- traction to the fashionable gnth- erings in Boho Bquare and other places where music went hand-in- glove with masked balls and other frivoious dissipations The famous Concerts of Ancient Muste began here in 1806 and continued to flouirsh under the patronage «of royalty and the aristocracy, Ineluding the Prince Consort and the Duke of Well ngton, down te June 1849.(Te be Continued.)

THE QUEBEC CHRONICLE MAY GRANT US, EQUAL TREATMENT Equitable Arrangement From.Point Of View Of Traffio May Be Reaohed Geneva, Feb.30\u2014Comsul-Gener- al Haskell has sent te Weshingten copies of three conventions drawn up by the International Transport Conferenes.They have to do with International efforts to reach agree ments on complieatsd questions of transport and communication.The most important from the standpoint of the United Listes con- corns the regulstions of werld ports, looking to the equitable trestment of commerce from the point of view of international truffle.It is not expected hers that the United States will sign any of these conventions, but it Is presumed there will be no disposition on the part of any signatory power to discriminate against the American flag, merely because Washington may not feel in a position to adhere to the maritime ports treaty.The maritime convention text stipulates that every contraot- ing state shall assure to the ships of all others a treatment equal to that Accorded to its own merchant marine.This equal treatment wil apply to the libetry of access to all ports used for foreign commeres, and to the handling of merchandize and passengers.All customs tarif(s and taxes levied in connection with the utill- salion of the ports must be published before they are put into operation.À special clause reserves to each state the right to suspend the benefits ef equal treatment to the ship of any counjry which does not extend in its own ports the privileges outlined in the treaty.The wecond convention deals with the transmission of electric power and Involves the grant'ng of Authority to stretch high tension cables acromp the territory of a state that derives no direct bene- {fit therefrom.The third prepares the way for accords between states tor the development and exploitation of hydraulic forces on international watercourses, The clauses of th's convention provide protection for ali states through which rivers run and urges the development of hydraulic energy.Unless you see the \u2018Bayer Cross\u201d on package or on tablets \"you are not getting the genuine Bayer Aspirin proved safe by millions and
