HON. PETER HFENAN MAY 0 T0 GENEVA Minister of Labor is Likely Representative of Canada Ottawa, April 5.--Hon. Peter Heenan, Federal Ministeer of La- bor, may represent Canada at the International Labor Conference at Geneva this year. The conference opens on May 30, and should the parliamentary 'and industrial situa- tion of the country permit of the minister's absence, he will under- take the trip. The meetings which open at the end of May are those of the 11th session of the confer- ence. The agenda will include: 1.--Final discussion of the mini- mum wage fixing machinery; and 2.--First discussion of the pre- vention of industrial aecidents due to coupling on railways. . Under the systenr of dual discus- slon of industrial problems, the conference weighs all matters twice in two consecutive years. The aim of the final discussion of the minimum wage fixing machin- ery is to take decisions by way of conventions on this item; while that of the second item is ta con. sider the preparation of a ques- tipnaire for the consultation of governments, The final discussion on this will be held in 1929. Other matters affecting labor ac tivities will be dealt with. Elections to the governing body of the international labor office will be held. These come every three years, Twelve nations have geats on the governing body, eight of which are permanent, Canada has one of the permanent places, Twelve other places are held for delegates of workers and employ- ers in equal proportion, Tom Moore, president of the Trades and « of the workers' representatives. All | governments presented at the International Laber r- ence are entitled to four members --two from the administration and one each from yers and workers. Additional to these each official delegate may be accompani- ed by two%advisers for each sub- ject on the agenda. Canada has always' had a full representation, and it is nop unlikely that this year will see mno variance from this rule. 4 a ------------------ GENEROUS HARRY Detroit, April 4.--Sir Walter Scott Statue Committee, which plans to erect a statue of the great Scotish literary figure im Detroit, today announced receipt of a $100, donation from Sir Harry Lauder while the Scottish comedian was filling an engagement at the Shu- bert Lafayette Theatre here last week.

Currie Freed By Magistrate » ---- Tdronto, April 5.--As no evi- dence could be brought to light to Justify a conviction, Magistrate J. Edmund Jones, dismissed the charges against Andrew Rae and Thomas D. Currie, who were ar- raigned ip police court jointly charged' with destroying and falsi- fylng the books of the Dominion Development Corporation, which fyled a petition in bankruptcy last December, in connection with the Dominion Textiles and Dominion Combing Mills, for which com- panies, the corporation is a hold- ing company. Five witnesses' took the stand Including A. McNicol, trustee of the Dominion Development Cor- poration, who stated that when he asked Rae, president of the com- pany, and Currie, secretary, for the books of the company, he found many of them missing. Rae, the witness said, had told him the other books were destroyed. The witness continued that the missing hooks contained the rec- ords of the company for a num- ber of years back and even though the information contained in the books could be secured from the bank "it would not represent the true story." McNicol stated that $200,000 had bean subscribed for shares in the Dominion Textiles and $1,600,- 000 in the Dominion Combing Mills. He also admitted that he had not attempted to secure the information contained in the miss- ing books from the corporation's auditors, which information R., H.

CONTROLLERS GET PAY INCREASED Salary Increase Unanim- ously Favored by Toronto City Council Toronto, April 5.--Members of the Toronto City Council, exclu- sive of the controllers, voted al- most unanimously Monday to in- crease the salaries of members of the Board of Control from $2,- 500 to $3,500 each year. The council spent little time in discussing the matter and, with the exception of Alderman Baker, there seemed to be unanimity of opinion from the outset favorable to an increase. Mayor Sam Me- Bride was one of the strongest supporters for the controllers, but insisted that his own salary should not be included. Alderman Baker declared that the increase was utterly without justification and he expressed the opinion that the Board of Control could be done away with entirely.

MINERS LAUNCH ATTAGK ON LEWS Struggle for Control of Coal Diggers' Union in Progress Chicago, April 5.--Around the bulky figure of John L. Lewis has seethed a struggle for control of the miners' union as intense and bitter as the workers' conflict with operators. An attack upon Lewis launch- ed from Pittsburgh on Sunday re- calls the spectacular efforts that rie vals within the United Mine Work- eres ranks have made to unseat the Illinoisan. A "save the union" committee which met at Pittsburgh urged the removal of Lewis as president. Among those at the meeting was Powers Hapgood, whom Lewis de- Sure they're different!

Hapgood, the son of a pro- minent Indianapolis man, who said he became a miner to study con- ditions of the coal diggers, denied that, but he didn't get to speak. Lewis' outstanding antagonists have been John Brophy, of Pen- nsylvania, Alexander Howat, of Kansas and Frank Farrington, of Illinois, The miners' president successfully unhorsed them in jousts that virtually eliminated each from presumed influence with- in the ranks of the coal diggers. Lewis Reactionary Brophy and Howat still are iden- tified with the union. Farringion resigned to become .an executive of the Peabody Coal Company, an outstanding producer in the Illinois field. Opponents of Lewiws have charged that his policies were too reactionary; that he played into the hands of the operators and that he had subordinated the interests of the union to his own ambition, Lewis called the warfare on him "Communism," and charged in conventions of the union that Rus- sian Soviet money had debauched miners so that Bolshevism could enter American labor ranks through the largest union--the miners, a Ir B Im by Bread | ~the rich butter loaf Pure Creamery Butter is the only shortening used.
