VOWS HE WON'T BATHE AGAIN Overseer of Christian Cath- olic Apostolic Church to Spread Religion (Canadian Press D h) Zion, Ill, Apr. 25--Wilbur Glenn Voliva, overseer of the Christian Catholic Apostolic Church, has an- nounced he will turn over active control of Zion to Apostle W. J. Mintern next summer and devote the remainder of his life to spread- ing his religion throwghout. the world. The famous overseer last night refuted recent reports that he was dying, by appearing publicly, nam- ing his successor, and vowing that he "never will go near a bathtub again." although he expects to live 45 years longer or until he is 106 vears old. Voliva, who preaches that the world is flat and sailed around it last year hoping to prove he is right. said that he had made a will transmitting all the church property to Mintern, whom he will name formally next July as his successor. He said that there should be no opposition to his action, "the sheep are all subservient to the shepherd," and that it was his wish that Mintern should succeed him. "Recent reports that T was dying, were false," said Voliva. "I shall not die until 1976. I merely scalded my foot while bathing. I was a silly fool to scald myself and will never go near a bathtub again as long as I live." Volivia announced that all busi- ness interests of Zion had been in- corporated yesterday at $5,000,000. that $200,000,000 worth of stock would be sold and that Zionites would have the first chance to buy. Mintern was named vice-presi- dent of the new corporation. Volivia said that after he turns the control over to Mintern, he will visit every capital in the world and found mis- sions in all countries. He is taking every possible pre- caution, he said, to make sure that under no circumstances will any outsider ever be able td preak up the Zion organization. which, he said, was started 25 years ago with- out capital and which now is esti mated to be worth between $5,000, 000 and $10,000,000. Voliva's remarkable business sue- cess, his theory that the world is flat, and teachings far removed from those of other faiths, have made him one of the most widely known cult leaders in the world.

CANADIAN PLANTS BETTER POSITION INTHE DOMINION Supply 76.6 Per Cent. of Do- mestic Demand for Manu- factured Goods--Sales of Trucks Holding Up Well Ottawa, April 26--Canada is be- coming incregsingly self-dependent in her industries, her shipping and her agriculture, according to Cana- dian Government statistics. These figures show that despite an increas. ing apparent consumption of manu- factured commodities. Canadian manufacturers are more than hold- ing their own in supplying more than three-quarters of this demand, that an increasing persentage of Canadian wheat is being exported through Canadian ports to over seas countries, that all coke used in Canadian blast factories is now pro- duced in Canada, that the quality of Canadian meat, and dairy pro- ducts is improving under govern- ment grading, and that Canadian exporters are increasingly success- ful in thir search for new markets throughout the world. The apparent consumption in Canada of manufactured commodi- ties in 1929, figures for which have just been issued, amounted to $4, 308,378,487, an increase of slight- ly more than six per cent. over the preceding year. Of this total, Cana- dian manufacturers supplied 76.6 per-cent. in 1929 and 76.0 per cent. in 1928. Gross value of manufactur- ing production in 1929 amounted to more than four billion dollars, while the capital invested aggregat- ed over flve billion dollars, an in- crease over the preceding year of 7.8 per cent. and 6.3 per cent. re- spectively. In the production of pig iron in Canadian blast furnaces in March, 1930, better than 14,900 tons of im- ported coke was used. Last month all the coke used was carbonized in Canada from Canadian and import- ed coal. Pig iron production in March was 11 per cent. greater than in February and steel production was 20 per cent. greater. The average production of com- mercial cars and trucks in Canada is being better maintained than the production of passenger cars, indi- cating that while the public is not purchasing cars for pleasure pur- pose to the extent that they did in previous years, the purchasing of motor vehicles for commercial pur- poses is being maintained on prac- tically the same level. During the past fiscal year slight- ly more than half a million radio re- ceiving licenses were issued by the Canadian Government, an increase of 21 per cent. over the preceding year, In Canada's foreign trade during the past fiscal year, United States purchases from the Dominion show- ed Increases over the preceding year in sugar, silver, coal, electrical en- ergy and automobiles and parts. The latter were mainly re-exports of original imports from that coun- try. Canada's exports to the United Kingdom showed increases in can- ned vegetables, cattle, canned fish, raw hides and unmanufactured lea. ther, raw wool, farm implements, hard ware, iron pigs and ingots, nickel, 'petroleum and its products. Other statistics show that the de- mand for Government graded beef continues to gain in volume in Can- ada, now averaging more than 1,- 200,000 pounds a month. Produc- tion of high graded Canadian cheese showed a substantial increase dur- ing the past four months as com- pared with the corresponding period last year. SYNOD FACED BY GRAVE PROBLEM Members Decide Parish Must Be Saved When Clergy- man Passes Period of Use- fulness Montreal, April 27--~How shall a rector be removed from a parish when he has outlived his period of usefulness in that parish? This was the problem that came before the Montreal Synod recently, a problem which has been the bane of bishops in the Church of England not only in this land but wherever its dioceses extend for years. "I am as powerless as a baby when the question of the removal of a rec- tor comes up. The problem is one of the most heart-breaking things I haye had to deal with," Bishop Far- thing stated in putting the matter before the: Synod and in asking the members to appoint a committee to act with him in attempting to find some means of removing a rector whose usefulness is gone. . The delicacy of the question was immediately scen when a number of protests were raised from the floor of Synod. There was a great danger in injuring some.incumbent, one dele- gate pointed out. Another claimed that it would seem rather presumptu- ous for the Synod here to attempt to solve a problem for which a solution had not been found by the bishops in England. Still another stated that machinery to remove a rector was "a very, very dangerous thing." The Very Rev. Dean' Arthur Car- - a the re~ solution asking that a committee be formed to deal with the problem in 'the diocese, explained that no at- tempt was to be made as yet fo set up any machinery or power for the removal of a rector. The resolution simply asked that a committee be formed to study the matter. Bishop Farthing stated that often the members of a parish had come to him asking that he do.something in regard to the removal of a rector. "Why does not the Bishop do some- thing ?" was the question in the minds of the flock. Bishop Farthing ex- plained that he was powerless to act though it was "a hard thing to sec a parish wrecked when it could be saved." "We should be able to handle this question," he continued, pointing out that the only way at present to re- move a wgelf willed and irresponsible chaplain" was to starve him out, as Bishop Farthing had been told at the beginning of his career as a cleric, he said. This was a most repulsive means to take, in the estimation of the Bishop. . When the urgency . of the matter was explained, members of the Sy- nod agreed .unanimously that some- thing should be done. They decided that a committee should be formed to act with the Bishop in this ques- tion. Delegates were further in- formed that there were only two counts on which a rector could now be removed, when he had committed some immoral act or was preaching LATE EL CHRYSLER 70 SEDAN, in beautiful con- dition. 1930 Ford Coach in new car condition. ROSS. AMES & GARE. ORE hone 1160 ALFONSO'S COUSIN SEEKS T0 BE KING Don Jaime de Bourbon- Anjou Issues Manifesto to Spanish Paris, April 25 -- Don Jaime de Bourbon-Anjou, a cousin of the de- posed Alfonso and fifth of the Car- list line of pretenders, has laid claim to the Spanish throne in a published manifesto which said: "Remember, I am always ready to help Spain avoid anarchy." He asked the Spanish people to de- clare in the approaching elections whether they are Republican or Mon- archist, and, inviting them to favor the latter, said that the resulting Monarchy need have no relations with the former regime but could be "renewed, progressive and decentra- lized." ' "My desire is to have a King head the Federation of Spain," he said, "A King above parties. Even the Re- publicans admit that a great part of the Spanish people favor the Mon- archy. It is unjust to suppress the Monarchy because one king does no ty know how to make his people love him" _ The Carlist cause had its inception in 1820 when Don Carlos, younger if | brother of Ferdinand VII, opposed Ferdinand's alteration of the law of succession so as to allow his daugh- ter, Isabel, to come to the throne. Considering the insurrection a sin, he wolild not fight against Ferdinand's There are no substitutes for its quality, purity and nourishment ANADA BREAD edict, but he refused to renounce his rights to the throne. Don Jaime, who once served ¢2 a colonel in the old Czarist army, is 60 years old. : Among the first high army and navy officers to sign the pledge of allegiance to the Republic are form- er Premier Damaso Berenguer, his brother, former Captain-General Fed- erico Berenguer and General Valles Espinosa, a member of the military directorate during the Primo de Riv- era dictatorship.
