Briefly put, the Post article, and the oth- ers which have been appearing this week under the guise of dispatch- es. from the press-gallery at the capitol, join in pointing out that Congress could raise the tariff rates on the products that Canada is. chiefly interested in but empow=- er_the executive to restore them to their present level in case Canada should sign and ratify the St. Law- rence, treaty. Quoting a "high- 'authority' the Washington Star, which generally speaks for the Administration, says: "Increases in the tariff du- 'ties on certain farm products may depend to a considerable extent un the attitude of the Canadian Gov- ernment towards the proposed wu terway connecting the Great Lakes with the Atlantic by way of the St. Lawrence River," Canadian Criticism Canadian newspapers which sup- port the King Government, says the Star, have criticized the proposed increase in the duties on farm pro- ducts. "These newspapers go fur. ther," says the Star, "and take the attitude that if the tariff is raised on these products, in which Can- ada is particularly interested, and of which she exports a considerable amount to the United States, all chance of the negotiation and rati- fication of a treaty for the con- struction of the St, Lawrence wa- terway will go a-glimmering." Canada has held up the St, Law- rence development, says the mews- paper, partly because of interna- tional differences of opinion, and, more latterly, because the Domin- fon is prepared to use the water- way as a bargaining weapon in the matter of the tariff. "It now ap- pears," says the Star, "that Ameri- can officials have said in effect to Canadian officials that if definite assurance can be given that the St. Lawrence waterway treaty can be negotiated and ratified such assur- ance may ald materially in keeping down the tariff duties. Farmers Willin, "In addition to this rt is known that farm leaders from states along the Canadian border, including New York, Minnesota and the Da- kotas, have been conferred with, and they have indicated that they would not be unwilling to forgo increases in the tariff duties affect ing Canada if the construction of assured." ne The Star explains at length the effect of difference in freight rates in the two countries and the ad- vantages enjoyed by the Canadian farmer in the transportation of his grain to the seaboard. "The Amer- fcan farmer," the Star continues, "takes the position that if there is nothing to be done to equalize his freight differential, which is shut- ting them out of foreign markets with their wheat and other pro- ducts, they can at least protect themselves in the home markets by the raising of a tariff wall; enough to 'keep the Canadian Products from coming into this country. It is this position which the American Government is likely to assume, It does not intend to see the American farmer lose his mar- ket abroad and at home, too," Await Developments Ottawa, Ont., April 6.--Canada has adopted an attitude of "wach- ful waiting" on the United States tariff. While there is no tendency to minimize the importance of the situation, there is a reluctance in Government circles here to com- ment on the dispatches emanating from Washington, which refer to tariff increases - against Canadian commodities.

Retaliatory meas- ures have been advocated. Such measures have all heen depre-nfnd, There has, however, been no pru- nouncemeut from the Gover ut, unless the intimation from Hon. James A. Robb, Minister of Iin- ance, in his budget speech, that this country is prepared to trade with those other countries which will trade with us, may be taken as such, Despatches from Washington stating that Canada's agreement to the construction of the St. Law- rence waterways is dependant on an undertaking from the United States that theer will be no in- crease in the tariff barrier, have drawn no official comment from the Government. There was a ref- erence in the correspondence on the St. Lawrence waterways, ex- changed between the Governments of Canada and the United States, to the tariff situation in the latter country, In a communication frou the Dominion Government to the United States, it was pointed out that the construction of the water- ways was designed, very largely, to provide an outlet for the agricul- tural products of the farmers of the middle western United States.

'This productivity was reflect- ed in the price of land, which reached as high as $1,000 per acre | farm fand., "This makes land prohibitive for the immigrant," Mr, Campbell pointed out, "for it would take a large out- iay to establish as a farmer. Even the poorer land on tHe hills brings $200 to $300 per acre." ew "Zealand was most pictur- esque, Mr. Campbell found, with high hills and beautiful valleys, and lakes teeming with fish, One of the most interesting places was Arotura, where there were many geysers, sulphur pools and boiling mud pools. At one native village, the party saw thé women dip fowl into one pool, scalding the feathers off, then cleaning them and dip- ping 'them into another pool, where they cooked in about fifteen mih- utes. Taken as a whole, with its ideal climate, New Zealand seemed an 'agreeable country in which to reside, Mr, Campbell said. Viisted Australia In' Australia the party visited Sidney, the second largest eity in the British Empire, noted for its wonderful harbor, The Australian summer, which was at its height when Mr, Campbell visited it short- ly after Christmas, was considerab- ly warmer than the Canadian sum- mer, and droughts were found to be common, When the party reach- ed Adelaide, the strike of harbor men and stevedores was in pro- gress. Mr. Campbell said that, un- til capital and labor come together in Australia, it would not progress as it should. These two elements seemed always at loggerheads, and the situation was by no means sat- isfactory. The government has now taken an active interest, however, and might be able to settle the dis- putes. The people of Australia knew little or nothing about Canada, said Mr, Campbell, and thought that Canadians experienced snow the year around. One lady said that she 'would love to come to Can- ada to see the Red Indians!" Aus- tralia and New Zealand were more or less isolated from the markets of the world, and did not have many Canadian or United States visitors, Mr. Campbell said. This was chiefly becausc of the time re- quired for the journey. If the steamship lines would place faster ships on the Pacific service, the time to Australia could be short- ened by two weeks, and there would no doubt be a considerable increase in the number of passeng- gers carried, Mr. Campbell said, Considering Canadian System An interesting note about Aus- tralia and New Zealand was that they were giving consideration to the adoption of the metric money system as used in Canada and the United States, Mr. Campbell said. At the present time the English system is in use. The newspapers, clippings from which Mr. Campbell brought home, were printed in the English style, and differed consid- erably from the type of journal found on this continent. After leaving Australia, the party visited Ceylon, where they saw the Buddhist Temple of the Tooth at Kandy. Here they watch- ed the sacred elephants of the tem- ple bathe in the sacred lake of Kandy. Then they went through the Suez Canal to Egypt, where Mr, Campbell was particularly interest- ed in the relics from King Tut's tomb in the Cairo museum. All the descriptions of this find have not been one bit exagerrated, said Mr. Campbell, for it was a wonder- ful exhibition. ; The party spent a week in Jeru- salem and the Holy Land. Thuey found that, despite an influx of Jews into Palestine, about as many were leaving as were-going in. The land was mostly agricultural in na- ture, and was not conducive to any great financial progress, The roads were good, and several motor trips to interesting places in the Holy Land were taken by Mr, Campbell. Incidentally, he used a Buick car, and found that the rules of the road were the same there as in Canada, motorists keeping to the right. After leaving the Holy Land, the party returned to Canada. On his tour, Mr. Campbell took a large number of motion pictures, which he may show in the city. HIGH GRADE EQUID MENT KEPT IN PER FECT CONDITION.

The Court of Appeal consisted of the Master of Rolls and Lords Jus. tices Lawrence and Russell. They reversed a decision of Mr. Justice Eve in a case in which two wo- men both claimed to have married Arthur Smalley, a fish salesman, of Charles street, Pendleton, who died in 1928 and that they were thus entitled to benefit under his will, in which he bequeathed all his possessions "to my wife Eliza Ann in which he bequeathed all his pos- sessions "to my wife Eliza Ann Smalley." The estate, valued at $4,270, was claimed*by Mrs. Mary Ann Smalley, of Stanhope street, Burn- ley, who married the testator in April, 1889, The other woman, Eliza Ann Mercer, a widow, of Charles street, Pendleton, said she bad married the testator in 1924, end lived with him till he died. She claimed that she was the per- son referred to in the will, "A Double Life" The case came before the court on the appeal of Mrs. Mercer frou the judgment of Mr. Justice Eve in the Chancery Diyision, who decided that Mrs. Mary Ann Smalley was entitled to succeed. + He sald the testator had gone through a bigamous marriage with Mrs, Mercer, and for years had liv- ed a double: life, divided between his real wife and family and Mrs. Mercer. It was nota case in which he lost sight of his real wife, and, therefore, when "he said he be- queathed his property to his wife, he meant his. real wife, who was Mrs. Mary Ann Smalley. From this result Mrs. Eliza Ann Mercer now appealed. Mr. Manning, on her behalf, con- tended that ag she was known as the testator's wife, there could be no doubt that testator meant her when he made his will. Mrs. Spens, K.C., on behalf of Mrs. Mary Ann Smalley, said that "right up to his death the testator was sending his real wife money." The Master of the Rolls, giving AND UP F.O.B.
