This city, was across the sea from Greece. i : Paris, son of the king of Troy, once stole a Greek queen from the city of Sparta. He was alded by a goddess. The Greeks became very angry. They decided to make war on Troy. ; More than a thousand ships (says the ancient tale) were in the Greek fleet which sailed to attack Troy. Winds and storms blew them from Ajax defending his sh | |AN ALARMING VIEW OF BRITISH INDUSTRY Criticism Made by Parliamen- _tarians of Policy Pursued by Baldwin. London, Aug. 16.--An alanming view of the industrial situation in Great Britain in the coming winter is taken by the industrial group of parliamentarians, headed by Sir Al- lan Smith, Conservative member of the House of Commons fér Croydon, and Chairman of the Managing Com- mittee of the Engineering Employ- ers' Federation. Sir Allan Smith criticizes Premier Baldwin in connection with the un- satisfactory state of tae industry of the country, and he sounds a pessi- mistic note with regard to the mat- ter. "Firms upon whose financial reputation and business qualities one would have placed the greatest re- lance," ht says, "are steadily gowng into liquidation. The financial strain this year has almost reached the breaking point. "What is lacking is foresight and imagination. If some definite fecl- ing of security is not created in the next four weeks, or, at the latest, hy the end of September, no recovery is possible before next Marca at the earliest. If the fourth winter of un- | employment comes, the State will then carry anywhere up to 500,000 industrial pensioners, as the State has to carry war pensioners." Sir Alian Smith cites expenditurcs which are required for Nigeria and other colonies, not with a viow to getting immediate results, but re- sults to be looked for some years ahead. He criticizes the esports credits scheme, and especially criti- cizes the government's atiitude to- ward Russia. FOREST COMMISSION. To Determine tho Question of Pulp "Export Embargo. 3 .

To Help the Allies Out of Financial Difficulties. 2 London, Aug. 16.--Figures show the magnitude of the gift which Great Britain offers not only to France, but all' the allied dohtors. Great Britain owes America £710, 000,000 ($3,244,700,000). The al- | lies owe Great Britain £1,200,000,- 000 ($5,484,000,000) of which | France owes just half. If the Ger-| man, capacity to pay is assessed at £2.500,000,000 under the twenty- three per cent. arrangement, Great Britain will get £575,000,000, leav- ing it to the Allies to find for Great Britain only £136,000,000, which | means that Great Britain makes a | present to the Allies of nearly £1,-| 000,000,000, ($4,670,000,000), which she is quite entitled to collect. Jf Germany's capacity to pay is fix- ed higher or lower, of course, the' amounts claimed by Great Britain from the Allies vary accordingly. An Unfriendly Act. Panis, Aug. 16.--If Prime Minister Baldwin decided to call an interna- tional conference to fix Germany's «capacity to pay, that sotion will be taken by the Frenofi, 1t'is forecast, as of the Interior, is attached to the Mr. Picard, as chairman of the : an unfriendly act which will end the vondial relations that have existed for early twenty years. France will 'then simply recall the fact that, after all, give is the principal creditor of | Germany and that care must be taken that her rights as such are not in- fringed upon.
