Ottawa, March 28.--The Royal Commission inquiring : into = the whole question of radio communica- tion in Canada is here preparing for a trip to Western Canada.

Officers Installed A formal installation of the newly elected officers. of the Chamber of Commerce was performed by His Worship, Mayor T. B. Mitchell. Mr, Mitchell made mention of the splen- did work the chamber had done in the last year and hoped that no citizen would express himself disap- pointed with this work until he had made himself cognizant of the full facts of the case. He stressed the great need for co-operation and stated that this basic factor in the sticcessful carrying out of Chamber of Commerce work would be aug- : mented by such gatherings as the chamber held from time to time dur- ing the year. 2 > The Officers : The newly installed officers were all re-elected at the general elections held a week ago. They are: Presi- dent, George W. McLaughlin; first vice, Gordon Conant; second vice, H. A. Brown; third vice, E, A. Lovell; and treasurer, F. J. Reddin.

The paper said the Premier's decision was taken at the recom- mendation of Sir Austen Chamber- lain, Secretary of the Foreign Of- fice, but that it had met with stern opposition in legal and dip- lomatic circles on the ground that Sir Cecil was not properly quali- fied for the post. The Express said that the ob- jetions centred around Sir Cecil's status as legal adviser to the Foreign Office, the objectors argu- ing that he would be regarded as an ex-official of the Foreign Office instead of a plain jurist without political entanglements. It was recalled that Sir Cecil was largely responsible for the drafting of the peace treaty and, it appointed to the Hague, would spend much of his time consider- ing questions for which he was personally responsible, Suffers Stroke Kigston.--Maitland Lake, Yark- er, was brought to the Kingston General Hospital on Sunday even. ing, having suffered a severe | stroke which left him unconscious.

Ritchie & Co.» Toronto INCREASE IN WOMEN INVESTORS BLAMED PARTLY ON RADIO Active Participation in Buy- ing and Selling Taken Up By Weaker Sex (By Canadian Press Edmonton, Alta, March Helen M. Boyle writes of the speculation rife among Canadian women today :-- Various reasons are given for the sudden increase in the number of feminine investors, Some brokers eredit it to the radio. An active par- ticipation in buying and selling stocks requires keeping closely in touch with the market. As women do not like to sit around the smoky board rooms the introduction of a means of keep- ing in touch with the markets while remaining at home, has opened up this new field of adventure for then. Others think that it is just another phase of women's increasing inde- pendénce and a part of the increased trading movement of the last few years. Women are very good investors ac- cording to officials at the local ex- changes. "I like dealing with women customers," one of the leading brok- ers of this city said. "They are good traders." Another official termed the women speculators gencrally as "good sports." A third admired the busi- ness-like way in which women do their investing. Most of the feminine speculators are business women while the mars ried women who trade are generally ones who have some money in their own name, Very often if a wife spec- ulates she does not wish her husband to know and vice Versa, so if they happen to drop into the brokerage office at the same time it is rather embarrassing. "What are you doing here?" one of them asks, and the other replies, "Well, I was just hunt- ing for you," or something equally non-committal, but the secret is out, They are both speculators and the rise and fall 'of shares becomes one of the main topics of conversation at home, If speculating is a family affair it is generally the husband who does it (with the benefit of his wife's advice behind the scenes, as one: tactful broker put it), The married women are quite as business-like and suc- cessful in investing as the business girls, according to the officials and one local married woman made $6,000 in Nickel and others made several thousands in the recent spectacular advance of Home Oil. Needless to say, they can alsg lose money as quickly as men. In the last 'two years these women have become real traders and con- dust their affairs in a very business like way. This is a contrast to the attitude women had at the beginning of this trend towards wider trading in stock. > One of the local brokers has_vivid DR.THOMAS | Liniment Wonderfully effective in the relief of sore throats which so often lead to more serious conditions.

Today. these. women keenly read the market gossip and have fixed convictions of their own as to when they should buy and sell i women investors yary in type just as the men. In some ways they are more daring speculators than their brothers and" husbands. As 'a to.

An- other distinctive feature about women investors is that they generally take small profits rather than take the risks involved in "pyramiding" and waiting for a *big killing" as the men often do. As a rule women prefer to buy outright rather than on the mar- gin, Women go more on _ "tips" than men, If a woman investor hears that Col. Petrol, an influential financier of Toronto, has told - his .cousin, Mrs. Blank of this city, that Petrol is go- ing up, she will.soon be down invest- ing in Petrol and no advice to the contrary is likely to stop her, SEARCH FOR PERTH MAN IS FRUITLESS Thomas C. Spence Disap- peared Last Friday from ' Relative's Home (By Canadian Press) Perth, Ont., Mar, 28--Following a five-day futile search through this district for Thomas C. Spence, local business 'man, authorities have turned their attentions to other fields, A wide expanse of country and bush has been comb- ed by volunteer searchers. The Mississipp river was dragged, but without result. The possibility that the man lost his memory and boarded: a train leaving the town, is now under investigation. Mr. Spence disappeared last Friday, having left 'the residence of a relative - bound for his own home. He complained of illness before his departure.
