NEED STABILITY IN ENPLOYNENT lo Greatest: Economic Need of |" U.S. President Hoover States Boston.--The greatest economic problem of this nation today is to provide stability in employment. President Hoover told the American Federation of Labor in a speech before its 50th annual convention here. The president revealed he is now co-operating with President Green of the federation and representa- tives of employers' associations in an effort to find a solution of the most difficult phase of the question --unemployment caused by the in- troduction of machines. The success of these labor-saving devices has been proved so far as the employer, worker and consumer are concerned, he said, contending that the answer to the unemploy- ment question does not lie in any direction which would interfere with that system. About 2,000,000 workers have been displaced by machines, he estimated maintaining most of these already have been re-esta- blished in new industries and new services. The prbolem now is how to expedite the readjustment of their lives to new work, he said. - FOUR SPRY OLD LADS. Belleville.--Aftending the Frank- ford Fair were four old but young men who were guests' of the sdciefy and President D; H. Ketcheson at the fair. Their combined ages were over three centuries, and some remarkable tales were told 'of the early life in this Bay of Quinte District. John Bruyea, .who. celebrated , his ~101st birthday on' Sunday 'last, was the sprightliest of the quartette and when approached remarked: "We are not bad old lads, and are all fgiends just out to see the sights and renew ac- quaintances of years' standing" In the car with Mr, Bruyea, who head- ed the procession to the grounds were Mark Kehoe, aged 98 years, James Jordan, aged 86 5 and John Montgomery, aged 89. These men, were all born in the district of Frankford and have spent their en- tire lives in the neighborhood. PROTEST AGAINST AUSTRALIAN DUTY Emergency Tariffs Fail to Correct Trade Bal- ance, Is Claim Melbourne, Australia, Oct, 11,-- The Australian Association of Bri- tish Manufacturers has appealed to the Commonwealth Cabinet to "pay attention to the state of public opinion and amend its tariff poli- cy," which is declared to be large- ly responsible for "the present crippling taxation and the burden of distress which Australia is bear- g. Prohibition of imports and heavy surtaxes, the manufacturers claim, have proved powerless to correct the adverse trade balance. The association also points out that thousands of British workers have been thrown out of employ=- ment by Australia's action in erect- ing a tariff wall around the island. The possibilities of an accept- able tariff agreement for the pro- motion of inter-Empire trade are most remote in the opinion of the Melbourne Argus. The paper be- lieves that, each of the Empire parliaments having framed its own tariff, there remains no reasonable epectation of revision. SURFACE SOIL OF FARM IS STOLEN London, Ont, Oct. 11.---~The "biggest" robbery in the history of Westminster Township has been perpetrated during the past month, according to a complaint made to- day to the county police by a man named William Joy.

LECTION BATTLE ON TARIFF ISSUE LOOHS IN BRITAI Bath Support and Rejec- tion of Bennett's Plan (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) London, Oct. 11--A long and bit- ter political fight on the tariff issue was presaged yesterday by the booming guns of -political oratory on both Conservative and Labor | sides. Breaking a silence of many weeks, Right Hon. Stanley Baldwin Conservative Leader and former Prime Minister, prophesied In a public statement that the next Bri- tish general election, "guided by the views expressed yesterday by the Imperial Conference," would be fought out, chiefly over the tariff question. - He stated that his party would line up solidly behind proposals brought up by Premier R. B. Ben- nett of Canada and other Dominion statesmen, for a large increase in the preférential duties in Empire trade. Plan is Denounced Meanwhile, the First Lord of the Admiralty, Right Hon. A, V. Alex- ander, speaking at Leicester, de- nounced "attempts to use the Con- ference for stampeding the country into protection." His statgment was made before a meeting of the co-operative move- ment, "Every effort is being made to stampede the country into a dras- tie change in our fiscal system, and to exploit for this purpose the fact that the Imperial Conference is sitting in London. "I would say to the worker who thinks that his particular industry would be helped by a tariff, that Mr. Churchill was right when he sald years ago, 'Protection is a good starter, but a bad finisher.' "For as soon as you move from a particular to a general tariff, the worker's condition becomes worse The worker, In fact, suffers a back- door attack upon his standard of life." Manifesto Issued A manifesto supporting the Im- perial preference scheme was issued by the Council of Industry a body of leading industrialists, headed by Sir William Morris, automobile manufacturer. It regretted "the complete ab- sence of any response or practical rejoinder on the part of our Bri. tish representatives." The effects of Mr, Baldwin's de- claration on the present confused political situation is expected, by experienced commentators, to be profound. In many quarters it is regarded as Mr. Baldwin's first real shot in a campaign against the Empire Free Trade movement of Lord Rother. ere, as well as against the Labor- es. * Both Lord Beaverbrook and Lord Rothermere, newspaper magnates, have been attacking Mr. Baldwin's 'supineness" in their powerful chain of papers. GOSSIP STONE WARNS SCANDLEMONGERS } i. Mulhouse, France~The famous | "Gossip-Stone" still warns idle talk- 1 ers as they pass the ancient frescoed city hall. This stone, a mask that weighs 25 pounds, is in the Historic cal Museum, but a duplicate hangs on the end of the city hall, with a warning inscription. Its significance is evident from the big tongue hang- ing out. ! Centuries ago, gossips were pun- ished by being compelled to walk the streets wearing the heavy stone mask. Its use is recorded as far back as 1551 and as late as 1781, CHINESE ADOPT First Photos Alaska-Montreal Telephone Link The first telephonic conversation between Alaska and outside commercial lines took place a few days ago, when C.

Phone 28 NOT OFTEN ARMED English Detective Points Out Differences of Am- erican Lawbreaker Toronto.~Some views of the dif- ference between criminal gangs in England and those on this conti- nent were expressed in an interview by Detective Superintendent J, W. Boon, of Leicester, England, who has travelled more than 3,000 miles to Toronto to bring back the alleged leader of a notorious London gang: "In over 25 ycars on the force, 1 never made a practice of carrying fire-arms," he said. No English po- lice officer carried firearms except shootings in the old country. Few detectives from the Leicester force had made such a long trip to bring back a criminal for trjal. The last occasion, he said was when col- leagues went to Kamloops in 1911, and to New York in 1908. The pri- mary reason for the present long trip, was that the man wanted was thought to be the king-pin of a dan- gerous gang. "Shatch and grab" gangs which operated by breaking windows and seizing loot, were the most prevalent in the pld country, Detective Boon stated.

ANDORDA WANTS LIBERTY AND CASH Little Republic South of France Asleep Seven Centuries Paris.--The curious, anomalous little republic of Andorra, tucked in a mountain valley between France and Spain, has awakened after seven centuries of sleep, and {wants its place in the sun, It wants the right to be modern, to choose its own methods of making money and, if it doesn't get it threatens to »npeal to the Leakue of Nations, The trouble started when the pat- riarchal farmers of the republic wero shown by an Irish syndicate how a tiny state could make money simply by allowing gambling in its territory. They agreed to accept the syndicate's offer' which guaran- tees a minimum of $15,000 a year for a sweepstakes concession, A magnificent casino was to be built with all the facilities and gambling devices to attract wealthy visitors, The gtrofits would have transformed the primitive methods of living of the inhabitants. But, although Andorra is nomin- ally independent, it is under a guardianship, a survival of the an- cient feudal lordships, dating back to1278. The guardians of the repub- lic are the prefect of the Eastern Pyrenes. Both refused tp authorize the Andorra Government to accept the tempting offer of the Irish com- bination.
