Between them they Registration Voters in Britain Follows New Orders The first official move. in readi- mes for the Gemeral Election-- the compilation of the mew voting reg- jster which will include 5 1-2 mil- lion new women voters--has been made. Sir Wm. Joynson-Hicks has tak- en a drastic decision and has ord- ered what amounts to a census of the adult population. It will be compulsory on every householder and the forms must be filled in under a penalty of $100 for de- fault. London, Sept 30.--As a result of a decision which has heen made by Bir Willlany Joynson-Hicks, the new "census" of the adult popula- tion of this country will be taken before the end of this year, The home Secretary, 1 under- stand, has sent written instructions to all registration officers in which he points out that the practice in some districts apparently has been to prepare the electors' list from information supplied verbally ta canvassers or from information which is within their personal knowledge, subject to such verifi- cation as was possible from records relating to previous registers. The Home Secretary has intimat- ed to them that in the preparation of the new register, when the fran- chise is being extended to a large number of persons, all occupiers of property should, as far as practie- able, be required to fill in a form giving the particulars required. Verification, If the occupier of a house is not at home when the canvasser calls, and the particulars are taken from gome member of the household, it is important, according to the in- structions, that the particulars should be verified by a signed state- ment by the occupier or household- er. About the middle of November the deluge of forms to be filled up will d d on b hold and have tuned a 500 h.p. boat to travel at over 75 m.p.h, and when the spe- cial 1000 h.p. boat is ready for the test Seagrave will Le experienced enough to handle her." tire with a satisiaftory margin stress safety. "The keel of the 1,000 hp. hydo- plane hull was laid down in a secret occupiers of business premises, who will be required to fill in the de- tails required and return the forms in about two weeks. This will be the first occasion on whieh the completion of the form will be compulsory. Powers to make it compulsory were held under the 1918 Act, but were mot enforced. Penalties for meglect will now be enforced. It failure to make a return ap- pears to be due to wilful neglect, "it may be desirable" to serve a second form "with such formalities as will in the event of continued nen-compliance be sufficient to sup- port proceeding" for enforcing the law. The form will contain a warning to householders that failure.to give the required information or the giv- ing of false information will rend- er them liable to a penalty of £20. The Home Office has asked regis- tration officers (usually town clerks or other local officials) how many of the forms they will re- quire. An unofficial estimate puts the number for England and Wales alone at 6,000,000, There are separate forms for householders and occupiers of busi- ness premises, and an intesesting point in, regard to the former is that women who come on the regis- ter for the first time will not re- quire to divulge their exact age. They will simply have to answer "Yes" or "No" the question "Are you 21 years of age or over' on a certain date. The decision of the Home Secre- tary in regard to the compulsory filling in of returns is intended as a safeguard against misrepresenta- tion in regard to age, and residence qualification and against person- ation, TWO MEET DEATH IN PISTOL DUEL Riga, Latvia, Oct. 3.--Two Ger- man students of the Latvian Uni- versity died after a duel of honor in the forest on the outskirts of the university, The duel was held Sunday and was carried out with pistols, It was said here that the duel had been sanctioned by the Court of Honor of the Students' Corporation, One of the duellists, Herr Schneider, died en ropte to the hos- pital, The other was killed almost instantly, TIME TABLES C.P.R, TIME TABLE, New Schedule taking effect 1201 am, Bunday, April 29, 1928, ( West 5.48 a.m. Daily, 6.23 a.m. Daily, 8.40 a.m, Daily except Sunday, 4.35 p.m. Daily, 7.34 p.m, Dail 10.05 a.m, Daily, aily except Sunday. aily except Sunday. sxcept Sunder, 12.09 a.m. Daily, All times shown above are times trains @epart from Oshawa Station.

O, D, Seagrave, is tc attempt to set up new world speed records in America next March, Details of construction would, of course, be extremely useful to a foreign rival, and in order to main- tain secrecy the car is being made in parts in 28 different British works, and not one knows what the other is doing. When the parts are ready the car will be assembled in another secret factory. "Without disclosing any secret which would be detrimental to Brit- ish prestige, I can say that my orig- inal estimate of a speed of 260 miles per hour can now be said to be guar- anteed says the automobile editor of the Daily News, "There is every chance, in fact, that any new record made between now and March will look insignifi- cant when Major Seagrave lets his new car out on the Daytona sands next year, "Its designer, Captain J. Irving, one of the finest automobile engineers in Britain, who was mostly responsible for the building of the 1,000 h.p. car on which Segrave was the pioneer of 200 m.p.h, has created a machine which, as far as humanly possible will rT Men's Blue Plush Lined Overcoats Special ,. $12.95 1.Collis & Sons 50-54 King St. W, Phone 733W Boy's Fleece Lined Com- natons 2 pee, 98¢ Dominion Clothing Co. 68 King St, W, Phone 2141 We Deliver 1 (1927) Essex Coupe Chadburn Motor Co, HUDSON-ESSEX DISTRIBUTORS © Prince St, Oshawa Phone 1160 ~~, V.

COWAN LA NEED FOR TARIFF AID (The Montreal Gazette) "What is needed now," says the LJ Sault Daily Star, of Sault Ste. Ma- rie, in discussing the position of the steel industry, "is the tariff protection which would emcoutrage the development of the steel im- dustry in Ontario and 'in Canada as a whole, and make possible its extension into fields where import- ed steel is mow dominant." That is where the tariff policy of the Government fails it exposes Cana- dian industry and Canadian labor to competition of the most severe character, and it affords no help to those who would extend the scope of industry. The West, we are told, will not permit it; but the West does not always speak with the voice of the United Farm- ers of Saskatchewan. The Edmon- ton Journal, in dealing with the "safeguarding' measures adopted in Britain, and likely to be extend- ed, points out that this safeguard- ing is directed chiefly against com- petition fromr countries where labor is cheap. "It might not be a bad idea," it says, "for Canada to bor- row the term as at least supple- meatary to and definitive of its idea of protection. In Canada, as in England, tariff reform means and implies just such a safeguard- ing of home industry against un- equal competition, of whatever sort, from outside." é This is a Western opinion, and it deals with one of th2 conspicuous faults of the fiscal policy now in force. It emphasizes a need which common sense and common patriot- ism suggest. But there is neither common patriotism nor common sense in the policy which permits and even encourages such competi- tion as 1s here indicated, and the nearer and heavier competition of American industries. ----------ett A youthful sports coat is strip- ed not unlike a chipmunk in cream, brown, black and white running the length of its straight lines, Your Real Estate and Insurance Broker SEERA .C.

But in most cases the stings proved even more painful than the rheumatism, and the meth- od was not pursued. At the Vienna polyclinie this treatment is now varied by injecting bee's poison, which is a fluid as clear as water Money to loan at 6% first mortgages. by Dr. patients suffering from sciatica and other rheumatic been successfuly treated, and bee's and of a bitter taste.
