The warrants were issued: to provide search to obtain evidence |; in the action taken by the Prov- ince of Alberta against Solloway, Mills and Company, The judgment makes the seizures void, The decision was given on the grounds that, "The information clearly does not-allége any offence nor dees it state causes of suspic- fon as required in the form given in the Act." The judgment states the war- rant is, therefore, had and should be quashed with costs to be paid by the Justice Department and the {nformant, : "On this ground alone, Lheére- fore," stated Mr. Justice Hynd- man, "it seems to te the appeal shauld be allowed and the search warrants in question quashed. But although it is necessary to deelde the point, 3 would think that more accurate or specific descrip- tion of the things to be searched for should have been set forth In the warrants, as I can hardly con celve that in an office such as the defendants' it would be pos- sible for a police officer to know Just what to seize, I do not think it was ever contemplated by the code that anything and everything therein should be taken, but sueh things only as may be the object of the search." Auto Parts Industry Future Is Uncertain The trend of prosperity in the automobile parts industry has ef- perienced three major movements; an upward movement during the early development stage of the au- tomotive industry; a downward movement during the stage when manufacturing integration was & fetish, and an ypward movement since the introduction of the new Model A Ford car, aiording toa current survey by the' Standard 4 Statigtiés Company, of New York, which continues in part. "The upward trend which began some three years ago was checked somewhat in 1929, and is likely to nest further resistance during "While there is evidence to sug- t that the main trend over the ong term future' is upward {au ject, of course, to interruptions from time to time), it would be rash to forecast such a develop- ment with complete. assurance. This uncertainty occasions one of the chief hazards attaching to long term holding of the common stocks of companies in this industey. i TRADING AGTIVE 'AS GRAIN DECLINES Closing Quotations at Win- nipeg Are Above the Dollar Mark Winipeg, Man, an.

CREDIT CONDITIONS SUFFER - FURTHER RELAX ATNEW YORK Call Money Renews at 3 1,2 Per Cent, Only to Ease Agsin to 3 Per Cent. By STANLRY WR PRENOSIL Associated Press Financial Editor New York, Mar, 14.--A, further rélaxation in credit conditions, aris- ing trom the reduction in the New York Federal Reserve rediscount rate from 4 to 34 per cent aud the heavy accumulation of funds here in anticipation of March 15, tax payments, furnished the impetus for another broad advance In prices in today's stock market, A sprinkl- ing of issues, including afew high priced specialties, showed conscpte cuous weakness. Trading was in fairly heavy volume, Call money renewed at 33 per cont for the first time since Jan. 25, 1928, and then dropped to ¢ per cent, the lowest official rate in nearly four years, Outside funds were available as low as 21 per cent despite some calling oi loans. Time money rates eased in sympathy, and some dealers again reduced bankers' acceptances, § of 1 per cent. The fifth similar cut in the last fortnight, The olls, which had not particl- pated extensively in the receni "bull" market, again gave an im- pressive demonstration strength. Recent favorable trade develop- ments rave revived speculative ac- tivity in those issues and led to the formation of several new pools in the ofl stocks. With a few minor exceptions, practically all of the leading petroleum shares, in- cluding the Standard Oil issues, Sinclair, Simms, Phillips and Rich- fold, moved into mew high ground for the year. A. M. Byers, Atlas Powder, Am- erfean Tobacco "A", Peoples Gas, Auburn Auto and Texas and Pac fle Land Trust were marked up 4 to 6 points. Electric Power and Light which is reported to be en- gaged in natural gas merger ne- gotiations, ran up more than 13 points to a new high at 80.

Murray (Liberal, South Ren- frew). y Referring to the deaths, Mr. Murray declared that a number of people bad thought that there was foul play. It was' also belleved, he added, that the goverfiment should have sent an officer into the district in disguise' to investigste. Both of these men, said he, were soldiers of the empire who had come to an untimely death, Sure- ly the matter should be Investi- gated, One in particular had an outstanding record. Stringer and Billings were be- lieved burned to death in a shack in Haliburton county some time between Jan, 8 and 20, 1926.

Big kernels in small shells fn addition to the advertisements of the big department stores, of the grocery and hardware stores, of the millinery, clothing and shoe stores, there is another kind of advertising that is being read more and more by readers of this newspaper. That kind of advertising is the Clases fied Columns, A man or; woman wants a job. They read the "Help Wanted" col. : 'umne and probably insert an advertisement of their own under "Posi. tions Wanted." Employer and job seeker soon get together to the benefit of both. A man may want an automobile--possibly he cane not afford a new car, so he looks in the "Used Car" columns and finde just the car at the price he can afford to pay.
