THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 1929 CANADIAN WHEAT MAY BE BARRED Montana Senator Would Im- pose 42 Cents on Cereal in Bond By KENNETH 8. CLARK Canadian Press Staff Writer, Washington, D.C, June 20.-- Proposals both for the increase and decrease of rates on lumber in the Hawley tariff bill were hedrd by the senate sub-commit- tees yesterday. Another proposal 'was for placing a regular duty of 42 cents a bushel upon wheat en- tering the country from Canada in 'bond for milling and reshipment as flour to Cuba. It was Senator 'Wheeler, Democrat, Montana, wno 'asked what amounted to a har to the importation of Canadian wheat under bond. The Hawley bill contains a pro. vision which would make wheat sntering the country for shipment to Cuba as flour pay a duty of 20 per cent the amount of prefer- snce granted United States flour sntering the island. Yesterday Representative Strong, of Kansas; asked the senate committee to sus- tain this house provision. The American farmer, he declared, was being cheated of his Cuban mar. ket by the millers who imported Canadian wheat® under bond, mill- ed it and shipped the flour as Am- erican. He asked also, that if pos- sible the provision making the new regulation effective should be puc into effect quickly. The Hawley bill at present provided for effec. tiveness 90 days after the bill be- comes law. "Will that provision do work," asked the chair. "It will do the work as far as it goes," Strong replied. Opposition to the proposed rate of 256 per cent ad valorem develop- ed in the hearings of the sub-com- mittee on wood. J. A. Edgecoumbe, St. Paul, Minn. representing the stained shingle industry, told the committee Canadian shingles were not being sold in direct competi- tion with those produced in Oregon and 'Washington. "The price vr shingles will not stand any fur ther increase," he sald. "If it Is the 'THE PAIN OF RHEUMATISM! "Fruit-a-tives" Rid Him of Trouble of Long Standing sufferer from rheumatism for Ms, A anatmo, B.C, tured 1 "Fruit- raised, wood shingles will be dis- placed by composition ones." Representative Knudson, Minne- sota, also opposed increases on lumber and shingles. "It costs more to produce lumber in Can- ada than it does here," he declar- ed. He said the wood schedule was the outstanding issue of the tariff in his congressional district. The proposed increases would "impose an unnecessary burden on the con- sumer." A. C. Wells, Michigan lumber manufacturer, raised his voice for a higher duty on maple and birch lumber. He asked a duty of 26 per cent ad valorem. The Hawley bill proposes a duty of 15 per. cent. It is pointed out here that Can- ada actually imports more hard- wood lumber from the United States than she exports to that country, RUN DOWN BY AUTO Toronto, June 20.--Mrs. Mary Webb, aged 61, of 33 Helendale avenue, was run down by a motor car at midnight last night as she was crossing Yonge street at Helendale avenue, The woman was found to have been severely in- jured, and was taken to the Gen- eral Hospital, Following an investi- gation of the circumstances sur- rounding the accident, P.C., Brown (9) of North Toronto Station ar- rested the motorist, Thomas Gar- bott, of 2614 Yonge street, on a charge of criminal negligence.

WOMEN'S INSTITUTE MEETS SASKATOON Promote Canadianization and Foster Interest in Literature Saskatoon, Sask. June 20.--Aims and accomplishments in promoting Canadianization, fostering national events and arousing interest in Can- adian literature were set forth in the report read to the Federated Wom- en's Institutes of Canada by Mrs, J, B. Lebaron, of North Hatly, Que., at the biennial convention here today. Furthering interest in Canadian lit- erature, writers, text-books and per- iodicals had been advocated through- out Canada by 'the Institute. New Brunswick was co-operating with the Historical Society in an cffort to get one Canadian history for all the pro- vinces, It would be written by a Can- adian for Canadians and would be a true story of Canada's discovery, battles and present position in Em- pire and world affairs, Prince Edward Island and Alberta had been urging a flag for every school, papers on Canadian history, art, scholars, famous Canadian wom- en and statesman, Quebec had been the most active in promoting the cause of Canadian periodicals, the report observed, be- cause their poetry, fiction, articles, history, biographies and reproduc- tions of beautiful paintings had re- ceived recognition at home and a- broad. Canadians should be familiar with the fact that "we have writers whose first editions are valuable." The report directed attention to a newspaper editorial which stated that the Canadian field for Canadian per- iodicals and, in a measure, Canadian newspapers, was being lost; that Canada's periodical press was being strangled to death by United States competition, The article had stated that 25,000,000 American 'magazines were sold in Canada every year at face value of $3,700,000. Of these, eleven million copies entered the country through the mails on annual K. NEILL, LIMITED The Store of Better Values: The opportunity of fitting the chil. R.

NORTH subscription basis, the remainder be- ing sold on the newsstands, The editorial concluded by saying: "During the same year about twelve million Canadian magazines were sold in Canada with a face value of $1,- 300,000. In other words, for cvery ten Canadian magazines we buy nearly 21 American; for every dollar we spend on the native product we spend near- ly $2.85 for an imported nagazine, Besides that, we import 1,000,000 Am- erican agricultural papers, and 1,250,- 000 professional and trade journals, besides uncountable millions of Sun- day newspapers." Ontario has been particularly ac- tive, the report continues, in making records of historical events, compil- ing local and township history, re- cords of prominent pioneers, indus- tries, customs developments and land- marks, and had co-operated with the provincial archivist, This work had also been carried on in the more set- tled parts of Alberta, but the policy of that province had been the en- couraging of active Canadianization among new settlers rather than re- search into past glories. The report urged support of organizations spec- jalizing on good citizenship among young people such as the Boy Scouts, Girl Guides and Junior Red Cross. Creation of public opinion demand- ing an official ban of Canada's liquor traffic with the United States; pro- vincial legislation to ratify the Iabor Convention; and improvement of the national status of the married women --these objects for the activity of the Federated Women's Institutes of Canada have been suggested in the report of the committee on legisla- tion, In her official statement, presented last night, Mrs. W. R. Lang, Toronto, convener of the committee, reviewed completely the outstanding provincial and federal legislation from the standpoint of the associated women's bodies. Her directions for the insti- tution's activity cover the next two years, being advanced at the sixth biennial conference, Emphasis is placed in the report on the economic status and nationality of married women and their rights of inheritance, as well as on general social legislation, including mothers' allowances, adoption, care of children born out of wedlock, and so on. New Brunswick, where women are refused the municipal vote unless they are tax payers, has pioneered in aid to Mative sons, it is pointed out. Without the provincial franchise the report says, women in Quebcu are laboring under a handicap, but are working gallantly, Only Quebec and British Columbia are trying the |, "health unit scheme," under which the government pays half the cost of a general health plant, Ontario's great accomplishment of the past two years is listed as the establishment of a joint legislation committee of three women from the Provincial Council of Women and the Federated Women's Institues of On- tario. With Mrs. Lang as chairman, the committee meets annually, choos- es six questions on which rural and urban women are agreed, and take these to a meeting of the provincial cabinet, where each of the questions is supported by a speaker from each of the two societies. Already legislation had resulted from this representation of 54 per cent. of the electorate, The Devolu- tion of Estates Act had been altered so that a widow with only one child received one-half of an intestate es- | tate, instead of one-third as before; an Act had been passed making it possible for courts to alter a will when widow and childfen are not ade- quately provided for; and an Old Age Pension Act had been passed. Misprints and omissions in provin- cial legislation have been pointed out to the government and have been rectified, the report states.
