The Un- made pr Bosrd had, indeed, Pp ration for paymen sustenance as authorized by the Unemployment Act, but the Prime Minister Rt. Hon. G. W. Forbes on: his return from Great Britain, where he had seen the offects of the dole, declared em- phetically against its adoption here. No payment, he said, would be made in New Zealand gs long as he was Prime Minister except to those who worked when there was any work to give them. This declaration, to which the Government have adhered, has evoked Labor accusations of breach of 'faith. ' The unemplayment levy was accepted the Labor spokesmen declare, on the understanding that sustenance would be paid if work could not be found. This fa not correct according to Gov. ernment officials. The unemploy- ment Act established a Board re- presenting workers, farmers, em- ployers, returned soldiers, and ibe Government, with the Mini- ster of Labor as chairman. The prireipal duty of the Board is to initiate measures which will re- Lieve unemployment, and' ulti- mately cure it. More particu.ar. ly it is aythorized to encourage primary and secondary industries and deveelopment plans which will absorb labor.' It {8 empow- ered to pay sustenance If work capnot be provided, but this pro vision {s.not mandatory, and it was made clear during the Par linmentary debates that it would be put into operation only as a last resort. Subsidize Farms The Unemployment Board has been reasonably successful in af fording relief without sustenance. | I's principal methods have been (1) To subsidize labor for farn.» at the rate of 25 shillings a week for married men and 15 shillings ! for single (the farmer providing fcod and accommodation); to subsidize farm development cor tracts (bush-falling, cutting, drainage, and works) by paying one-third the labor cost up to 375 for each contract; (3) to pay the labor costs of works specially un dertaken by local authorities tu relieve unemployment, About 2,500 men are at pres- labor schemes and other land settle- ment plans. This labor, by in- creasing production, has a cumu lative effect in absorbing workless. In co-operation the Department of Lands, Board has now undertaken a ne% scheme to bring abandon ed farms into production. 2re some 400 of these nl with the a farms which have depreciated through | tne spread of noxious weeds or | scrub, through pasture deterior- | ation, or through the farmer oc- cupier's lack of capital.

For the greater number of workless, relief is pro- vided through the municipal em- ployment plan. Local governing | bodies provide the plant and su- pervision for works in their own areas and the Board supplies and pays the la- tor. The work is "rationed." | Single men are given two days' work each week for three weeks cut of four at nine shillings a day, and married men three or tour days' according to the num- | ber of dependent children (also for three weeks out of four) at | 12 shillings six pence a day. There are many protests that this is mot a living wage, but it is the most that the Board can provide with the resources at its com- wand, For some workers it is necessarily supplemented by re- lfef from the hospital boards which in New Zealand perform | the duties of the old boards of | guardians in England, As it is, | the Unemployed Board's resour- ces have heen severely strained. CANADIAN MILEAGE IN BIL- LIONS Over nine billion miles were travelled in 1930 by Canadian motorists and visiting motor tou- rists from the United States on the highways of Cangtda, or a wileage that would girdle the earth 360,000 times. To travel this tremendous mileage approxi- mately half a billion gallons otf gasoline were used, and the gov- ernments of the different prov- inces in Canada received $43,- 000,000 in revenue in the form of gasoline tax. "These figures" states an of- ficial report, "indicate to what extent the automobile industry und the petroleum refineries have become important factors in the economical life of Canada." In addition to the quantity of gaso- line used by sutomobiles and other motor vehicles in Canada tn 1930, over 131,000,000 gallons were used for other purposes. According to the latest complla- tion Canadian refineries produced 73 per cent of the total quantity of gasoline used in the Dumin- fon. 'These refineries capitalized at $1,373,132, used over a billion gallons' imported. crude oil, mainly 'from the United States and from the Republics of Col- ombia and Peru, and over 37, 000,000 'gallons of Canadian erude ofl.

One small cup of water--six ounces--was all that was required to fill the rad- fator. The day was hot, the temperature at times registering as high as 80 in the shade. Observers on the run stated that at no time was the engine temperature above 200 dagcees and during most of the trip it varied between 180 and 190 de- grees. As was shown by the small water consumption, the wa- ter did not reach the boiling point at any time. One of the features of the Nid. smobile cooling system which made this remarkable hill climb record possible is the water mani fold, according to Oldsmobile en- gineers. This manifold is equip- ped with ports opening between cylinders and part of the water passes #irough these ports on its travel to the end of manifold. In this way all cylinders receive ccld water and are kept at an even, efficient temperature, THE SERVION TENT The car that will turn in 80, 000 miles in two years without mechantonl grief of any kind, and at the same time supply comfort to the driver on a var. toty of dificult ronds would seem to be near the ideal for the com- mercial man, These, at least, aro the admitted facts which in fluenced Mr, James Rutledge of Cwen Sound when he bought himself a mew 1031 Chevrolet Coupe not long since, Mr. Rut. ledge represents the Eureks Re- frigerator Company in the terri- tory between Owen Sound and Windsor.
