AUSTRALIA SPLIT ON ECONOMY PLAN Much Onpoettion to Scheme For Bettering Country's Financial Position (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Adelaide, Australia, Nov. 3--Labor forces in two of the six states are rebelling against the drastic economy and retrenchment program agreed upon by all state premiers and the commonwealth administration, in an effort to rehabilitate Australia's tot- tering financial structure. The South Australian Labor Party has definiely split over Premier Hill's determination to adhere to the fin- ancial agreement. The Trades and Council; representing alt trades unions in the state of South Austra- lia, today passed a resolution con- gratulating premier-elect J. T. Lang on his victory in the New South Wales on a platform of maintaining a high standard of living. The trades council also denounced Premier Hill for supporting the premiers' agree- ment, Premier Hill, however, is adamant in his determination to carry through the agreement so long as he 13 in a position to do so.

Marie, Ont, Nov, The steamer Ashbay of the Tree Line Navigation Company of Mont- real, which left Port Arthur on Tuesday night and was believed to be the disabled vessel sighted by Lightkeeper Miller of Michipicoten in a blizzard on Thursday after- noon, passed downbound through the Canadian locks yesterday morn- ing. , I A. J. Houge reported at the canal that he had sheltered from rough weather and snow for two days at Keweenaw. The United States coastguard cut- ter Seminole, which had been dis- patched to search the waters and shore line at Michipicoten when the Ashbay was reported three days ov- erdue here, was recalled to the Soo yesterday when a check-up re- vealed that the Ashbay was safe and that no other vessels are unlo- cated. The opinion is expressed here that Lightkeeper Miller must have seen a mirage or was mistaken in the belief that he saw a vessel with her decks awash limping toward Quebec harbor, though he reports having put out in a small boat in a vain attempt to reach her.

Since the new pack year opened on July 1, figures gathered by the industry indicate that compahics have sold half as much salmon in Canada alone as in the whole of the previous year, These sales too were made be- fore the usual Canadian buying of salmon is underway. With the do- ninion government appropriating $25,000 to add to $25,000 raised by the packers themselves for domestic ad- vertising purposes, it is expected that the Canadian demand alone will be increased so much as to limit the amount of first grades available for export, ROBBED OF $1,600 Hamilton, Nov, 13=Thieves paid a well-planned visit to the Metropoli- tan Store here over the week-end, and this morning when the safe was opened, it was found that $1,600 in cash was missing, The shopbreakers opened the strong box with great skill us it gave no sign of having been tampered with, | part, | barrel-rolls over | drome, lout of a downwind sideslip : |of an eye | Pitcairn biplane -- (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Toronto, Nov, 3 Stunting two young girl passengers a flying thrill, Harry E.
