i , IMIH) STATES IIWtED TO ATTEND CONFERENCE ON NEAR EAST PROBLEMS A despatch from Paris says: France, Italy and Great Britain have agreed to invite the United States to participate officially in the Near East peace conference at Lausanne, Swit- zerland, November 13. This decision was reached after a week's discussion of the form of th invitation to be is- sued to the conference. The suggestion to aak the United States to participate officially came from Lord Curzon, the Britis-h Secre- tary for Foreign Affairs. The invita- tion will be handed to tba State De- partment in Washington by the Drench, British and Italian Embassies. Eleven invitations will be issued in all to the United tSates, Turkey, Greece, France, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Jugoslavia and Roumania for the peace conference, and to the Soviet Russian and Bulgarian Govern- ments, to take part in the discussion of the question of the Dardanelles. The invitations will be presented at the different capitals by the diplo- matic representatives of all the three inviting powers, France, Great Bri- tain ad Italy, probably on Friday, .except in the case of the Moscow Gov- ernment, which will be informed by wireless. As possible deletes for France at the conference, Mm. de Jouvenel, Hanctaux, Franklin Bouillon, Viviana, Leygus and Bornpard, the last named former Ambassador ta Turkey, has been mentioned. The definite choice, however, remains to be made.

DE VALERA ONCE MORE IN LIMELIGHT The Rebel Leader Summoned Second Dail Eireann and Nominates State Council. A despatch from Dab: in says: Eamoun de Valcra has just made a new move by summoning the second Dail Eireann, Wbkrh constituted itse'.f the Republican Government and nom- inated a council of state. De Vateru always has contended that the second Dail had never been formally dissolved. He refused to recognize the Provisional Parliament s replacing it. especially challenging the Parliament's capacity to interfere with political funds in the United Stales. His captured correspondence revealed him doubtful erf his ability to Dstablish a Republican Government, mainly because he could not count on support from the army. On Thursday night, however, the Publicity Department issued an offi-i cisil statement which showed he' changed his decision and that the sec-Jtul Dai) met in secret session. Removal of Cattle Embargo Will Benefit Farmers and Transportation Companies. A despatch from London says: The removal of the enAargo on Can- adian cattle will mean a gain to the Canadian farmers, railways and steamship compnies of almost ten mil- lion dollars a year. This is the esti- mate made by the experts who assist- ed the Canadian Ministers in the re- cent conference on embargo removal with the British Ministers. They point out that where the Canadian breeders now receive cn'y two to three cent? a pound for cattle sold to the United States, or less than cast in many cases, the throwing open of the English market will a!!ow them to obtain five to six cents per pound. It 19 estimated that they will shop at leassf two hundred thousand head annually to this side, which will mean a minimum sum of five million dollars in the pock- ets of Canadian farmers. It will also bring about two million dollars yearly to the treasuries of the Canadian rail- ways and a correspondingly large sum to the Canadian Merchant Marine. * Weekly Market Report Toronto Ontario comb honey, per doz., $3.25 to Manitoba wheat-No. 1 Northern, ^p vtlttoM ^ fgir Ontario*, No. 1, $1; $1.19%. jff^ 2 80c.

Western Grain Rushed Through by Rail A despatch from Port Arthur says: The head cf the Lakes is' now witnessing a tremendous rus>h of all- rail shipments of grain from the Can- adian West, both on the Canadian Pacific and on the Canadian National Railways, such as never before has been known in the history of these Lake ports. All-rail shipments do not usually commence until December 12 or there- abouts when Lake navigation has stopped, but during the last few days 150 cars a day, representing about 200,000 bushels of grain, have been sent out all-rail for the Eastern markets.
