NEV-SUSPICIONS STIR JUGO SLAVIA Decree to Hide Wat Preparation Belgrade, Jugoslavia, April 4.-- Relations betwéen Jugoslavia and Albania, which for a time had measurably improved, have become painfully strained over the com- tinual refusal of "Albania to relax the recent closing of the frontier because of an alleged outbreak of typhus, Up to this evening, no veply has been received from the Tierana Government to Jugoslavia's ener- getic demand for the reopening of the frontier, The situation was much aggravated today by des- patches ting that another en- tire sector in the Struma region had been heymetically sealed hy the Albanians." il J * Nat Honest gaan % oe newspapers declare that the bloc! olan OT, sanit measuge, but it is a screen Hi active military preparations en- d.by Italy, They insist.that demies interna« ves that at 'least ne on the front field "to "be a measure dic- tated" By the Itallan Premier Mus- solini, as an expression of his dis- satisfaction at Jugoslavia's reluct- ange to extend the Nettuno con- vention, vesting Italians with the Tent to purchase property on the Adriatic littoral from Jugoslayia. ..

Travelling in Europe for about ten dollars a day, putting overseas travel on a par with a normal holiday at home, is made possible for the American tourist by the happy combination of Tourist Third Cabin Class on the magnificent Atlantic fleet of the Canadian Pacific Steamships and the tours arranged in the old world by the Arts Crafts Guild of Chicago, it is shown by the figures released by these companies, The creation of this riew elass of gcean travel on vee s has made trgvel possible for 0 have heen unable to eonsider many thousands Aulfilling their hopes, and during the past few years it has become fully established in popularity. The economy effected by this class of ocean passage makes a comprehensive European tour possible for every traveller, who during the Atlantic voyage enjoys surroundings and comforts equal to those until re- cently associated only with first class accommodation. Staterooms are above the water line, each with hot and cold running water, and the publie rooms--card yooms, drawing rooms, @&moking rooms, dining saloons,--are commodious and tastefully furnished. Orchestras are carried for special entertainments and dancing, These take place on the broad promenade decks or within doors, Itineraries. ranging from thirty-two to seventy- three days in extent, including the ocean passage, are possible for the traveller under the Continental Collegiate Tours organized by the Arts Crafts Guild of Chicago. The charm of these tours is realized right from the start, for during the thousand mile journey down the mighty St. Lawrence and through the Gulf the boats pass scenery rivalling that of any river trip in the old world for beauty and pictur- ésqueness, Once overseas there is nothing of importance or interest missed by the tours of the Guild, In England they include the Shakespeare country and London; in the "Low Countries," the best of Belgium an Holland; in Germany, the Rhine and her great centres; in France, Paris--of course--and the lovely Riviera with Monte Carlo in its midst; in Switzer. land, the Alps; to the south the cities of sunny Italy and romantic Spain; and to the north, in the "Land of the Midnight Sun", Norway and Sweden. Every thing in fact that the traveller is anxious to see may be visited on these tours.

The scene was the slave auetion rooms of Beard and Calhoun, not- ed ante-bellum auctioneers, which is but one of the amazing settings for *"Unele Tom's Cabin," the mammoth Universal production which opens Monday at the New Martin Theatre. Students of Southern social his- tory declare that the reproduction is startlingly eral. Four auction- eers are husily disposing of the human inanimate chattels of the St, Clare estate to an intereted crowd of trader, stockmen, dan- dies, plantation owners, Southern belles and labor agents. In one corner a goatish auction- cer descants on the virtues of a bandscme mulatto girl to a group of smirking young bloods; on an- other platform a second auction eer disposes of a collection of furniure and hardware; at a third station squealing and bellowing live stock are the points of inter- est; while in a fourth corner poor Uncle Tom is being transferred from a comfortable home to an uncertain and fatal future. The brutal Simon Legree stalks importantly through the crowd ex- amining the miserable, black wretches who stand in quivering groups, not knowing what the next minute will bring. On the walls are handbills describing goods for auction, calling atten- tion to runaway slaves, and des- cribing the virtues of various and divers spirituous products. So faithfully has director Harry Pollard limned this scene that the babel of noises amd the rausous voices of the bellows-lunged aue- tioneers are almost audible. Par- ticular pains were taken as these auction rooms comprise the key situations of the epic production, for it marks the beginning of Un- cle Tom's immortal trip "down de ribber" and his subsequent in- troduction to Little Eva. ~ BRITISH PARLIAM BANS PRESS MERGERS London, April 4.--The con- solidation of the press into hands of powerful syndicates was discus- sed in the House of Commons to- day when the House agreed, with- out division, to a private mem- ber's motion declaring that the maintenance of independent organs for the dissemination of news was vital for the preservation of the standard of public life, and that the consolidation into syndicates, and some of the devices employed by those syndicates to extend the circulation of their newspapers, were contrary to the public inter- ests.

Brock Urges Encouragment of Trade -- North Vancouver, B.C., Apr. §. --Through interchange of exports the Fiji Islands could be made of equal importance to Canada as the Hawaiian Islands are to the United States, Dean R. W. Brock of the University of British Col- umbia, told the Canadian Club here recently, Dean Brock urged encourage- ment of trade with the islands, comprising a group of 250, prac- tically undeveloped at present but capable of being made more pro- ductive of tropical produce. than the Hawiian Islands will ever be. New Zealand and Australia, he said, both have sufficient tropical products of their own and the Fi- jian market is open to Canadian merchants, Touching on the future of Can- ada, Dean Brock pointed out that the era of Pacific trade 1s now reaching a stage of development that is attracting world-wide at- tention. The belief" has been ex- pressed on many occasions that Pacific trade will outrival that of the Atlantic Ocean within the present generation, he stated. "As a result Canada will be the chief country to benefit," he add- ed, "the high tariff walls imposed by the United States making the Canadian routes to the East and West hte most favorable to Europ- ean and Asiatic exporters. Canada's natural position, its industries, natural resources, climate and topography, will eventually make it the most thickly populated and political centre of the British Em- pire. T believe the Dominion's population within a century will exceed 84,000,000." The important factors for po- tential settlement of a country, he declared, were temperafure, rain- fall, coal supply for industrial purposes, and elevation, Nature treated Canada generously in all of these and the natural result would be a constant influx of set- tlers from all parts of the world. Emigrants could even be expected soon from the United States, he concluded, the saturation point having heen almost reached in that country, BARN AT INGLEWOOD STRUCK AND BURNED A---- Inglewood, April 4--The first toll of an electric storm for this year in the Inglewood district. was taken carly this fmorning when - the barn owned by John McDonald was struck by lightning and totally destroyed, along with some of the live stock and a quentity of feed. All the ims plements were lost with the excep- tion of an automobile and a wagon and buggy when the fire spread to the driving shed. The loss is said to be about $5,000, partly covered by insurance.
