Discrimination Against Shipping British shipping is excluded by many foreign countries trom their coastal trade. Thus British ships may not carry cargo or passengers trom New York to Charleston or San Francisco. American shipping is not treated by us in this manner. It can ply trom port to port in the British Isles and engage in inter-Empire trade. The day has come to end this one-sided and unfair position.

This tigure is arrived at by returns made to Government departments with the last few days of the year estimated by trade experts. Trade Balance Will Be _ f9ver $50,000,000 Cantda's total exports of domestic. goods are estimated at $498,301,000. It also exported foreign goods esti- mated at $8,018,000. The imports during the year are estimated at $455,877,000. Since this includes the goods afterwards re-exported, the ex- port balance is the difference between the total exports (domestic and for- eign) and the total imports. This is a considerable change from 1931. The totals for both exports and impo'rts were greater last year, but the imports exceeded the exports by $10,855,000. The exports of do- mestic goods totalled $605,336,000, for- eign goods $11,907,000, And the im.. ports totalled $628,098,000. Camarvon to Celebrate Lloyd George's Birthday London - Special arrangements have been made at Carnarvon for the celebration ot David Lloyd George's 70111 birthday on Jan. 17.

Vienna, which in 1910 had been a gay and flourish- ing city, was, since the war, Ur. Keys found, badly off, with "no visible means of support," and with many of the buildings showing the effects of lack of money for their upkeep. Prague, Dresden, Heidelberg, famous for its university; Danzig, were other cities visited. The island of Gothland r. the Baltic Sea, once a powerful member of the Hanaeatic League, was also visited. Ito, chief town, which some six or seven centuries' ago was as large as London " that time, has now a population of only a few thou- send people. Stockholm was pointed out as unlike most cities, having an attractive appearance from the har- bor. Carted Away as 'Lumber' Ada Okla. - Adn's celebrated pet- rified forest, long a subject of study by scientists, is no more. The petri- fied wood has been sold by its Indian owner for use in the construction of a commercial garage. Ada civic leaders had hoped to in- elude the forest in a two-ttere park, but the petrified wood was sold and hauled away before they rould obtain the land. The "forest," with remains of giant trees of long ago scattered where they fell, was described by geologists as the largest of its kind in the Southwest.

Intelligence Level British Columbia is flat ousting Washington and Oregon tram the United Kingdom market. In the ttrat three months ot this year. with the lmport_Dutles Act in effect for one month, the province shipped 51.9 per cent. of the Paeitie coast export to the United Kingdom; Washington shiped 37.5 per cent., with Oregon 10.6 per cent. In the tirat nine months ot the year, with the Import Duties Act in effect for seven ot them, British Columbia steadily increased her per- centage to 70.5 per cent., with Wash- ington getting 23.5 per cent. and Ore. gon 6 per cent. The import duties preferences are now embodied in the Imperial Conference agreement.

During the past few years ‘the increase in attendance at the I schools maintained by the Department lhas been very gratifying and in the year 1931-32 there was an enrolment of over 17,000 and an average attend- {ance of over 13,000, which in a record l for the work.

Distribu- tion will take place during the spring and summer ot 1988 tor the restocking ot the various lute: and strenu- throughout the Dominion. Rivers and lakes are in abundance in every province and with sea tttttting on both coasts Canada is a paradise for the angler. The department ot tttsheriets, however, supplements the natural production by the distribution ot eggs and try, and in the past year more than 138,000,000 try and older tigh were placed in suitable streams throughout the Dominion. The British Columbia Sockeye headed the list with more than 97,000,000 try and tin. gerlin‘s being distributed. Next in order was the Atlantic salmon with 21,000,000. The reminder ot the dig. tribution ins made up at other varie- ties ot salmon and trout. The above "urea do not include hatcheries taken over by the provincial governments, and it is estimated that in the past year more than 600,000,000 eggs, try and Insulin“ have been distributed when the hatcheries operated by the Dominion and Provincial Govern- ments are taken into consideration.

During the year, M residential schools and 270 day schools were in operation, a total of 350 centres of Indian educational activity through- out the Dominion. The day school: are conducted wholly by the Department, but in the management of the residen- tial schools the co-operation of the churches was as follows: Roman Catholic, in 44 schools: Church of England, in 21 schools; United Church, in 13 schools; and Presbyter- ian, in 2 schools. At the day schools the work is made more attractive to the pupils by the correlation of class- room exercises with reserve and Itt- dian home activities, and in the rest- dential schools vocational training is emphasized. ' The health of the Indian boys and girls while they are attending school is a special concern of the Department and in addition to careful inspection, physical education, proper diet, and sanitation is stressed. The welfare of the graduates is also looked after when they have left schorl and ap- proximately 260 young indian men and women were asslaled in the con- tinuation of their studies and in the establishment of homes during me last year. - Get two sets ot accessories for each dress. have them very ditrerettt in color and hive them in quite ttitterent degrees ot formslity.
