THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1929 'AGE NINE [ORD CUSHENDON GIVES BRITISH VIEW "ON DISARMAMENT Continued from Page 1) powers have actually effected a large and important measure both of reduction and limitation in naval armaments." ° The British delegate said he fa- vored preparation of a statement which would indicate the points of agreement and disagreement be- tween the British and ¥rench draft conventions on disarmament. As Britain was not a military power in the . continental sense of the term, she would not insist on her own view on land armaments, he said, She was prepared to accept in this regard any agreement which had the unanimous approval of the rest of the commission. rs Wasting Time . "For four days the commission has been discussing something which has really nothing to do with its work," Lord Cushendun declar- ed." He urged that if the commis- sion did not make some consider. able progress it would become the laughing stock of the world. "I have no doubt that would be very gratifying to the Soviet delegates," he 'caustically added, 'but it would be disastrous." New Soviet Statement Geneva, April 19.--The League of Nations' preparatory commission on: disarmament emerged from {ts impasse today by rejecting in effect the Soviet government's disarma- ment scheme. But further words remain to be said. As the com- migsion passed to the second item on-theagenda Maxim Litvinoff, Rus- sian vice-commissar for foreign af. fairs, reserved the right to make an additional statement: "As our draft convéntion has been rejected," M. Litvinoff signifi- cantly said, "I ask permission to make further declarations tomor- row in regard to the attitude of the Soviet delegation to the future work of the commission." "Put It in Writing" Jonkheer Loudon of the Nether- lands, chairman of the commission, replied that as the commission had already given its decision he was unable to authorize Litvinoff to make any further statement. He suggested the Russian delegate should make his declaration in writ ing, which could be circulated among the delegates. And as the commission turns te other business, there is questioning among the delegates as to what form Litvinoff's declaration will take. Rumor has been going around that a flat rejection of the Soviet's sweeping proposals for ma- thematical reduction in armaments would be followed by withdrawal of the Soviet delegates from the commission. But today's decision, while putting the Soviet scheme aside, provides the Soviet draft may be appended to the preparatory commission's report and further re- cognizes the right of the Soviet de- legates to propose amendments to the commission's own draft conven- tion on disarmament, which is due for second reading.

Conference Sympathizers When the death of Lord Revel- stoke was announced in the con- ference room at the Hotel George V. this morning, Dr. Hjal- mar Schacht, German spokesman, with whom he pleaded in vain yes- etrday, was the first to rise. He expressed his sorrow and the sym- pathy of the German delegates. Expressions of condolence pour- ed into his home. Someone said he might have ' accomplished in death what he failed to do a living man yesterday. He said the En- lishman's death would cause the reparations experts to stop and think and perhaps avert the im- pending failures of the conference. London Shocked London, April 19.--Ncws of death of Lord Revelstoke, foremost among British International Bankers, came as a great shock to London financial and political circles today. Lord Revelstoke, who was. the sec- ond baron of that name, was a direc- tor in the firm of Baring Brothers and Co., Ltd., a British international banking house. He was well versed in financial af- fairs of all sorts and for that rea- son was made receiver-- :neral to the Duchy of Cornwall and a member of the council of the 1.ince of Wales, Last December he was named to the British committee of experts on rep- arations to. participate in the work i i boyhood friend by Lord Revel- of the Paris conference. King Loses Friend London, April 19.--The King lost stoke's death in Paris this morning. They used to play together as young- sters and Revelstoke was later one of a group of bachelors much in evi- dence at the British Court.

If You Have HEADACHES, BACKACHES, CONSTIPATION, PILES BAD BLOOD OR SKIN DISEASE Revelstoke was the last survivor of these friends 'of his majesty's youth, British banking circles had long re- cognized his lordship's financial ab- ility and held him in the highest re- gard. Apart from his own bank and the bank of England, however, Lord Revelstoke did not figure prominent- aly in the city of London's commer- cial and financial district. He was a very reserved man, de- voting his spare time to art and greatly enjoyed a quiet home life. He served on few public committees.

They, however, would make no statement until af- ter meeting with other members of the committee and then perhaps not as a delegation.

Kel- logg, former American Secretary of State, stopped far a few minutes on his way to the golf links recently to emphasize that, in his opinion, rela- tions between the United States and Great Britain were "never better." Kellogg had just returned to his hotel here from the studio of Philip Laszlo de: Lombos, noted portrait painter, who has had such disting- uished world figures as King Edward VII, Pope Leo XIII, the former Ger- man Kaiser, and Theodore Roosevelt sit for him, Kellogg is spending three hours each day at the studio, where Laszlo is painting a portrait of him to be hung in the State Department Buildings at Washington, "I take no stock whatever in al- legations of strained Anglo-American relations," said Kellogg, in reply to Fhis interviewer's questions. "So far as I know relations were never bet- ter." Further than that statement Kel- 1ogg would not comment on world affairs, saying that he was on a vaca- tion and enjoying real rest for the "first time in years. "I said almost everything one could say in regard to international peace during my 'term as Secretary of State," he commented. The disarmament outlook, the pre- paratory commission sessions at Gen- eva this week, the international out- look were not subjects on which the former Secretary desired to mix in with his golf at present," he said. "As one of the authors of the peace pact, I should not talk about it," he said. "But I feel satisfied that it made a great impression throughout the world."

No class of antique is sacred to the faker, and hardly a day passes when clever examples of his work do not reach leading London auction rooms. There are many collectors who still believe that the appearance of a plece in the catalogue of a lead- ing auctioneer sets a seal on its authenticity. Nothing is further from the truth. If the prospective buyer will read the 'conditions of sale" he will find the auctioneers are not responsible for the correct description, genuineness or authen- ticity of any lot and make no war- ranty whatever. There is only one solution, and that is for the amateur to call in the assistance of an expert. It may add to the cost of his venture into the saleroom, but he can, if he sel- ects an expert of esablished repu- tation, safely feel that his purchases are what they purport to be and faker. As the craze for collecting in- creases, so do the productions vg there is a workshop of a so-called furniture restorer whose staff of nearly 20 highly paid men is kept pieces or making remarkable cop- ies, often so marvellously executed as to deceive all but the most ex- ert. Only the other day a plain ma- hogany table of the Chippendale pericd, worth perhaps $100 was transformed at a cost of nearly $30v into a desirable trellis-bordered tray top piece. It was worth the work entailed, for it was sold short- ly afterwards for $1,750. Another trick is to make a set of six chairs from two or three faulty old ones, and so cleverly is this frequently done that it is scarcely possible 'to tell the old wood from the new. A plain cabriole mahognany chair is a comparatively common is relatively small, but let the faker carve the knees, top rail, and centre splat, and he has a chalr which he can sell to the uninitiat- ed for three figures. China With The Marks With china it is the same, though most of this class of fake comes. from France and Germany. All the rarest English china marks, such as Chelsea gold anchor, the crowned D of Derby, Vnd the seal mark of Worcester, are reproduced in exact facsimiles, the pieces them- selves being modelled and colored often with remarkable attention to correct detail. Old silver, too, despite the risks of prosecution, is reproduced in huge quantities. It is, however, in the world of pictures that the faker shows per- haps the greatest activity. Not only the works of old masters are cop- ied, but even the works of men still living. 3 Walter Sickert, A.R.A.,, is one artist who has suffered in this way. He found hanging in a friend's drawing room two works bearing his signature, neither of which he had ever painted. Many of these false modern works come from Scotland, and are admittedly the work of clever painters whose pictures under their own names would command a very small price. One great incentive to the faker is the desire of the average collec- tor to make a "find." Finds are by no means so common as the tyro would believe, though it is still possible to pick up choice pieces in out-of-the-way places. The amateur always protects himself. Most dealers ~[ repute nowadays are ready to si.c an in- voice with any piece sold, clearly stating the period and origin. If this is done and the piece proves to be other than as described the re- turn of the money paid can be de- manded.

Dr. R. D. Dewar, township medical officer of health, and district physician, under the direction of Dr. T. J. McNally, are concentrating their fire on the sus-'| pected germ, the swift and deawy streptococcus hacmolyticus. Yesterday's report from the Lon- don laboratories was less than suf- ficient to give the doctors.in the field any positive knowledge of tne primal cause of the outbreak which hag terrorized hundreds of contac. who unwittingly exposed them: selves to the scourge by attendiny funerals at the Sinclair and Brown homes.

In the meanwhile, perhaps, a | hundred who have been most ob- viously exposed to infection, have been inoculated with anti-strepto- cocei serums, which, in professional opinion, usually avail to protect the subject if treatment is given any time before the death-dealing virus enters the blood-stream. All the aids of science have been thrown around Edward Sinclair, son and brother of two of the first victims of the outbreak: here. In Victoria hospital in London, he is directly under the care of Dr. John A. Maogregor, a distinguished spe- cialist, who now holds hopes that his patient will be saved. Sinclair is known positively to have strepto- coccus infection. Dr. McNally is in constant touch with the provincial department of public health and has at his disposal the entire resources of the great protective organization, under the direction of Hon. Dr. Forbes God- frey. Yesterday the district's M.O. H. combed the entire district and kept 'close contact, not alone with Dr. Dewar of Melbourne, the towu- ship medical officer of health, but also directly with Dr. L. W. m, Freele and Dr. K. M. Shorey of Glencoe, and other physicians en- gaged in the fight. No New Cases Fresh cultures were taken from all who have developed sore throats and other troubles, or who have other symptoms that might have some bearing on the general situa- tion. No new cases have develop- ed in the Sinclair or Brown homes, which both continue under strict quarantine, and the remaining members of both families show no symptoms of infection. Dr. McNal- ly devoted some attention to trac- ing the recent illness of Miss Mary Sinclair, trained nurse home on sick leave from Grace hospital, De- troit, where she had been doug post-graduate work. A supposed mastoid in her case is being made the subject of laboratory study, with a view to discovering if this might reveal anything of value as to the source of this disease in Ek- frid. : Another theory on whigh Dr. mec- Nally and his associates are con- centrating is that there may haw been some infection on the udder of COLDS NO MORE Let soothing, pleasant "Nostroline" that Cold.

The milk supply from both farms has been shut off to prevent delivery to the neighborhood creamery. Dr. Mec- Nally stated that none of the milk from either the Brown or Sinclair farms has ever been delivered to London consumers. All that has gone out to the neighborhood has been properly pasteurized and so rendered safe for human consump- tion, even if it had at any time been contaminated. Check Up Milk Supplies London's municipal department of public health has also checked: up on the milk supply, prepared had it been necessary, to ban from the city any shipments from the in- fected area. The consensus of medical opin- jon is that the situation is being brought under control, and if no new cases develop in the meanwhile it is possible that the five closed schools will be thoroughly disinfect- ed at the beginning of next week and permitted to 'resume their classes. The ban still stands against any church services for next Sun- day and no public meetings are to be allowed. Child Falls Victim Thamesford, April 19.--Fears that the mysterious malady had spread from Ekfrid township to the borders of Oxford, grew last night when Walter Noble, aged 3, died in Victoria hospital, London. Whether the child suffered from the strepto- coccus infection which has already caused four deaths in Ekfrid, or from diphtheria, is not yet known. The child's death followed within a few hours of his sickness, and in other ways the case bears a strik- ing resemblance to the ones in Ek- frid. Banker Retires Brockville.--When W. H.

Canon Frederick George Plummer, who was rector of St. Augustine's Church, Parliament and Spruce streets, for more than twenty years. The canon, who was 71 years of age, was taken ill on Sunday morning when playing the organ at St. Bar- tholomew's = Church, Dundas street east. Death was due to bronichial pneumonia. Canon Plummer was born in Ire- land, but came to Canada at an early age, and was educated at Upper Canada College; he was employed by the Federal Bank until he was 30 years of age, and during that time acted as organist at Holy Trinity, It was not until 1889 that he entered the Church, becoming curate of St. Mathias's Church, where he had been acting organist. In 1903 he was ap- pointed vicar of St. 'Augustine's and became the first rector later, when the church became a parish church. It was during his cure there that his musical eminence was recognized and rewarded by his appointment as pre- centor of St. Alban's Cathedral, and canon precentor of the Diocese of Toronto. He is survived by two brothers, one of whom, James H. of Toronto, is at present absent in England, while the other, Alfred, resides in Vancouver; also by a nephew, H. L. Plummer of Warren Road, Toronto. The remains will lie in state at St. Bartholomew's Church from 8 oc'lock this evening until 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, when the fun- eral service will be held. Burial will = be in St. James's Cemetery.
