But the members took Miss Agnes Mac. Phail up wrongly, She did not mean she was contemplating marriage. She was talking of the tariff and declared she had been elected as a United Farmer and had not changed her name to Progressive as pthers had done." But she was willing to change her position on the tariff if circumstances justified it. ~~ As she spoke, however, it séunded some thing like this: "I was elected as a United Farmer and I have not changed my name" (Loud cheers).

Hull, Commission- er-General of Immigration, a Courtesy Essential "Each branch of the border sery- ice has its own peculiar problems in dealing with the public," said Mec- Leod. "But the fact that they have to deal with the public makes it imper- ative that the personnel should be kept at the highest standafd of cours tesy and intelligence, The special cases that deviate from this standard must be given immediate attention." Reports of "harsh" treatment met- ed out to individuals crossing on the Ambassador Bridge and the ferries, which, in some instances, led to heat ed arguments, are said to be at the bottom of Representative Ycleofs request, United States citiZens who have been "held up" resented the quizzing to which they were subject- ed by their own officials, and com- plaints followed PROHIBIT BRINGING PARROTS TO CANADA Ottawa, May 15-An order-in- council issued by the department of agriculture under the authority of the Animal Contagious Diseases Act prohibité the importation into Canada of parrots, parakeets, cock- atoos, macaws, lories, lorikeets and love birds, This step was deemed necessary by the department of national health as a measure toward the control of an outbreak of psitta- cosis, or parrot fever, in British Col. umbia, Up to the present eleven cases have heen reported from Pa- cific coast ports In that provinee.

Fenton, arrived here ves. terddy for u conference with Hon James Malcolm, Canadian Minister of Trade and Commerce, Mr, Fenton said they had discussed trade be- tween Canada and Australia, and there might be some modifications, in the trade agreement, between the two countries as a result of his visit to Canada. . Australia was now buying twice as 'much from Canada as this Dominion purchased from Australia, The Come monwealth had recently increased its tariff by 50 per cent, and this prob. ably would result in a decrease in imports of Canadian goods, especial. lv automobiles, The object of the ta. riff increase was to compel 'motor manufacturers to make cars in Aus. tralin, and not merely to assemble the parts imported from America or elsewhere, The General Motors and Ford had established factories in Australia, and practically everything was being done in that country gow but the engines.
