TARIFF BOARD GETS ~ READY FOR WORK Will Hold Autumn Hearings on Iron and Steel 'Matters OTHER LINES TOO Members Have Just Return- . ed From Tour of In- ; . Ottawa, Sept. 9--The Tariff Ad- vigory Board will hold further hear- ings this fall on the applications from the iron and steel' industry for in- creased protection. The indications now are that.these hearings will be of considerable extent, and will -bring to Ottawa quite as imposing anarray of company representatives and coun- sel as made the hearings on the same references 'last year so notable, The impression had gone abroad that although the cases for the steel interests had not been defintely clos- ed, any hearings this autumn would be brief chiefly to put on the records the reports made by the committee appointed to study the capacity of some mills to produce the various sizes 'of structural steel. However, it was made plain at the officies of the Board yesterday that the fall hearings would be important and doubtless far reaching. Many applications affecting other fines of industry will be heard. The Canadian Horticultural Council will likely appear to urge increased pro- tection for fruits and vegetables. There was some disagreement as to the relative merits of ad valorem and specific duties, and also the effective- ness of seasonal tariff. The various interests affected are understood to be 'seeking unanimity on these points, Important Industry The great extent of the steel and iron plants, the vast amount of capi- tal 'and labor involved and recent de- velopments, both in Canada and abroad, however, tend to give the hearings in this industry especial sig- nificance. There is the feeling that if the new United States Tariff for- ces Canadian action in reply, it will be to build a higher fence against the tremendous flow of iron and steel _ products from across the line. The work of such scientists as Rob ert Turnbull, of Toronto, who hopes to have developed an electrical pro- cess which will place great deposits of iron ore in this country on a com- petitive basis with the ore from the United States and make this country independent of outside supplies, adds to the interest the public is taking in the whole situation. Other scientists hold out the hope that iron ore, now unprofitable because of its high con- \ tent of sulphur, may yet be used to provide sulphur for the paper mills and have the iron as a by-product. The announcement of Premier Fer- guson that the Ontario Government would give a bounty of 1 cent a unit on iron ore mined in Ontario, has also done much to direct attention to the iron-ore deposits of this province from which no metal is being taken at the present time. . Schedules Ready Accordingly the larger firms from one end of Canada to the other are expected to be on hand when the hearings are continued. The Cape Breton representatives will ask for a county on Canadian coal used in smel ting ores. The Algoma Steel Cor- poration will press its request for a broadening of the .protection on structural steel and steel alloys, and $0 on. rough the summer, the staff at the Yariff Board has been rewriting the steel schedules to be in readiness for any revision in the tariff the Gov- ernment may see fit to make in its next Budget. The Commissioners, W. H. Moore, chairman; Hector Ra- cine and F, S. Jacobs, have been vis- iting steel plantst through the past month to get first-hand knowledge of the workings of the various foundries. Meanwhile, the Hawley-Smoot Tar- iff Bill is being eagerlyswatched, as' it pubsues its tempestuous way at Washington. Latest alterations in it have 'not helped much from a Can- adian viewpoint. Fish Tariff Revision of certain of the fish sche- dules will be of little benefit to the Canadian fishing industry, in the op- inion of officials of the Fisheries De- partment. The decision to make the rate one-half cent a pound on fish other than halibut, sAlmon, mackerel and sword fish, from October 1 to May 1, will have little effect on the Canadian sea fishing industry. The seven months of the year during which the half-cent rate will be eff- fective, if the proposal is approved, is the period of lean production on the coasts. As a matter of fact the total exports to the United States of sea fish, affected by this provision of the proposed tariff, was only slightly more than 2,000,000 pounds sin 1928. The fresh water fisheries of the in- terior and Middle West may benefit to a certain cxtent by the proposed change. The proposed cut in the duty on fish dBied and unsalted, cod, haddock, pollock, hake and cusk, from two an one-half to one and one-quarter cents a pound will not be of any benefit to Canada. At the Department it was stated that there is a very small ex- port of clams and clam juice . from Canada to the United States. The re- port states that it is proposed to re- duce the rate on these commodities from 35 per cent. ad valorem to 20 per cent.

' Competition for the cup, the only trophy in international team play for women now is confined to the United States and Britain, French women stars have discussed the subject and speculated on the possibility of competition ultimately to determine feminine world tennis supremacy on a par with the Davis cup matches, To watchers at Wimbledon in re- cent years it has been evident that at least half a dozen countries could put strong teams into the field. France has yielded its former supremacy among women players to Helen Wills but has a number of fine players in- cluding Mme. Mathieu who played the American champion in the French finals, In international competition, Great Britain, the United States, France, Germany, Holland, Australia and South Africa might be entered. The all-round athlete, Senorita de Alvarez, would head any Spanish ag- gregation. Germany has the pretty little fraulein Cilly Aussem; Holland, Mlle. Kea Bouman, 'fhile Australia has her champion Miss Akhurst, Miss Boyd and Mrs. O'Hara Wood. . South Africa could easily recruit a high grade team from players such as Mrs. Peacock, Miss Heine and Miss Taps- cott, CLAIMANTS FOUND 10 VAST ESTATE Ontario Man May be Heir to Dougald Blue, African Millionaire London, Ont., Sept. 9--Three years effort by F. H. Curran, London bar- ristet, is achieving some results in the search ofr Canadian heirs of Douglas Blue, a native of Scotland who is said to have been the man of that name who is reported to have died in Africa leaving an estate said to be worth from $8,000,000 to $9,000,- 000. First word of the estate came to Canada three years ago when friends in Scotland wrote to a Middlesex county resident saying: 'I suppose you are on easy street since the death of your rich uncle in Africa." The Middlesex man brought his letter to Mr. Curran who has since pursued a search for other relatives of his client who might be able to furnish some evidence of their relationship to Dou- glas Blue, 5 In the meantime an agent in Scot- land has established that a person named Dougald Blue left for some place in Africa. Other inquiries are being made in South Africa to find 1t the same Dougald Blue died in Africa and if he did leave a vast estate and no will. If Dougald Blue, the Scot, did go to Africa and make and leave his fortune, the Middlesex relations hope to be able to forge a claim to and so entitled to share. In the meantime, the Middlesex people have not allowed their names to be divul- FOUR YEAR OLD BOY {DROWNS IN HARBOR Playing Near Water at Belleville When He Fell in Belleville, Sept. 9.--Ronald Con- lep, 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer. Conley, of Rochester, N.Y., was drowned Saturday morning in the Belleville harbor. The youngster was playing with a tot named Billy Asselstine and in some manner fell in the water which is about five feet deep. His playmate ran to his mother imme- diately and informer her of the ac- cident but it was some time later before the body was recovered, and although resuscitation methods were employed it was to little avail. WAIST LINE RETURNS TO NORMAL IN FASHION Paris, Sept. 9--A woman's waist is again something more than a figure of speech in the world of style, Af- ter years of wandering belts have settled down in a comfortable curve there they will stay temporarily by almost unanimous agreement of the most important dress designers of Paris. Final ' doubts about the upward flight of waist lines were dispelled when a famous woman dressmaker, who took normal waistlines out of fashion, put them back again. Professional buyers stocking up here with next winter's Paris models, used every known scheme to get to see this particular style collection, which it was generally agreed would decide whether Paris was going to uphold the higher waist lines. Had the collection ® rejected the higher line there would have been some hope for stylish stouts and for the opponents of raised belts. Now there ,is 'almost .none, as - only one. outstapding dressmaker shows a . de- ) . \da ' CROSSING CRASH Three-year-old Girl Crushed Under Train When En- gine Hits Auto Peterboro,, Sept. 9.--Elsie Carter 3, was killed, her mother and a six-year-old sister, probably fatally injured, and her father, William Carter, Peterboro, less seriously in- jured when the automobile in which they were driving was struck by a Canadian Pacific railway train at a level crossing in this city yesterday. ' Both the train and the automo- mobile were travelling slowly when the accident occurred. The motor car had almost cleared the cross- ing when the right rear wheel was struck. Elsie was thrown out of the car and fell beneath the train. Mrs. Carter and another daughter, Vivian, were thrown beside tue track. Mr. Carter was - hurled through the windshield and sufter- ed from severe cutk and bruises, A third child, Beryl, aged eight, was uninjured. The train was approaching tne station. There is a clear view either way on the track for a distance of 3 quarter of a mile from the cross- ng. The three injured were rushed to Nicholls hospital by Dr. East- wood, the attending physician. The train was in charge of conductor G. D. Carmichael with engineer 'Wm. Murray and fireman George Gregg. Fireman Gregg was the one who first noticed the car ap- proaching and it was proceeding at such a slow rate of speed he thought it was going to stop at the crossing.

They bi to the Dude Ranches in the Iberta Foothills, and in increasing numbers each year, They ride the mountain trails, and they learn to rope and tie calves; sleep out o'nights; wear chaps and beaded deerskin vests, and in time they become thoroughly inted with the mysteries of 1 diamond hitch, and the art of milking wild cows--real wild ones. The most internationally famous of these Dude Ranches is that located at Kananaskis, on the Bow River, near Banff, Alberta, and is operated by Mrs. W. A. Brewster, --known to the whole countryside and to hundreds of people in cities from coast to coast as "Mrs, Bill". She runs the ranch and is the ide, mentor, friend and confi- nt of tenderfeet innumerable. They come from New York, and lea Chicago, Montreal and Toronto, San Francisco and Vancouver and from points between. They arrive a bit weary from a winter in the cities and they go away hard and brown and with appetites,--real 2p petites, the kind people pray 1.--A few of the dudes and some cowboys in front of the home ranch. 2.--Mrs. Bill Brewster on her favorite pony. . 3.--Lighting up after lunch. 4 --Packing for the mountain trails. ter he had been found lying on Winchester hill, at the western en- trance to Riverdale Park.

There were other friends with Birkby at the time he was hurt, and thep took him to the office of Dr. Thomas Phipps, 661 Broad- view avenue. From there he was taken by police of Pape avenue di- vision to hospital. Detective Miller of Pape avenue division was assigned to the case. Questioning other youths and a girl said to have been with Birk- by, Miller obtained information | which resulted early Saturday af- ternoon in the arrest of the New- ans boy.

"Toronto, Sept. 9.~--The Canadia Eaton oa its fifty-tirst year on Saturday ight fan a8 spectacular ceremony, in which seven bands and the great Exhibition Chorus participated. Although it took place after the Grand Stand performance, this gi- gantic last-moment display was attended by tens of thousands of visitors who formed a solid phal- anx, covering the entire Plaza. It was a worthy culmination for one of the significant years in the Exhibition's history. Although not a record year in point of attend- ance, 1,974,000 people filed through the turnstiles during the fourteen days of the Fair, The at- tendance was larger this year. than in any year of the history of the Exhibition, with the exception of 1928, when the Golden Jubilee was celebrated. The last day's at- tendance reached 193,000, as com- pared with 228,000 for the cor- responding day of 1928. At the closing ceremonies on Saturday night, Thomas Bradshaw, in a brief address, dwelt upon the significance of the "Empire Year" which had been celebrated. The in- creasing number of exhibits from different parts of the Empire was encouraging, especially at a time when intra-Empire trade was being promoted "He also mentioned the exhibits representative of other countries--the United States, the Netherlands, China and Mexico-- and hoped that in the future more nations would be represented. Mr. Bradshaw made the an- nouncement that next year would be called '""All-Canadian Year", In this connection, he said: "We are not unmindful of the fact that this is primarly the Canadian National Exhbition, and every endeavor will be made to obtain representative displays from the Governments of all of our Provinces in order that next year it may be possible for our patrons and visitors: from all parts of the world to form a clearer and more definite concep- tion of the tremendous resources of this rich and broad domain," KARN THE DRUGGIST FOR SERVICE PHONE 378.
