The| Canadian Government put a tariff of twenty-five | cents a ton on coal and now our Government slaps | a twenty-five cents a ton on the Canadian product. This means that American coal users in Eastern Canada will have to pay twenty-five cents a ton| on American coal and Western American users of Canadian coal will have to pay twenty-five .cents| on coal from British Columbia In this game Pacific Coast Americans will have a slight advantage over Eastern Canadian coal| users. They are not compelled to use Canadian coal for there is a lot of American coal produced | on the Pacific Coast while the Eastern Canadians | have little choice in the premises. HELPING CHINA. [ Upon receipt of a cable message from Finance Minister T. V. Soopg, asking the continued co- operation of China Famine Relier, U. S. A, Chair- man David A. Brown, to whom his Board of Di- rectors delegated authority during the present dis- aster in the Yangtse Valley, replied with an out- line of the representations being made to the Fed- eral Farm Board at Washington and the Gnnni tab ation Corporation at Chicago. John Earl Baker making survey of the extent of the disaster lowing cable The Chinese 'Government has addressed an official inquiry to the' American Gov- ernment and appreciates your assistance toward its favorable reception. The Grain Stabilization Corporation related its offer of several weeks ago to sell the Chinese Gov- ernment wheat to be paid for in two y In responding to the corporation, Dr. Brown suggested the sale of all of the wheat the Chinese Govern- ment will buy, to be paid for in ten or twenty years, with either no interest or with rate so low that it will constitute a record Speaking from the office of China Famine Relief S. A.. Dr. Brown said: I am sure the Federal Farm Board will take advantage of the humanitarian and economic opportunity that China's great dis- an aeroplane sends the fol- who is a U aster affords, and that there will b2 no quibbling about price or terms. China Famine Relief in U. A. may be impatient, but we can all remember the speed that has marked the disaster of disasters in other countries. Ships might now well be on the way to our Pacific Coast ports to begin loading the wheat Public sentiment as it comes to us in editorials and in letters i5 uranimous in favoring the sending of a part of our surplus wheat to China, and we can find no in- clination to wait while the time of payment or the price is being ccnsidered Wheat State Senators are apparently as one man in support of the plan to get a lot of wheat to China quickly. One of them suggests obtaining the advance approval of Congress if that is necessary. The Wheat Stabilization Corporation has the opportunity of forming the greatesd act of international comity for this country , since it helped Russia in the famine of 1920-21. Our concern is of course humani- tarian. The economic phase is easily ap- parent. MADE A FORTUNE BETTING BUT WAS NOT A “GAMBLER.” “Chicago” O'Brien always refused to be called a gambler, because, he said, it suggested running or bucking a “game” or playing at cards, dice, etc. He said he made his money betting, usually on horse races. Probably his most famous bet was $100,000 to $5,000 that Man o War would defeat Sir Barton in the match race in Canada. He won the bet. O'Brien began life poor and worked as a brick- layer. He died the other day, at 68 years, au mil- lionaire. He was said to be one man who consist- ently picked winning horses. He also won immense sums betting on elections. It is said that Wood- row Wilson was the means of winning a fortune for him. He also won heavily on the Carter Har- risons, father and son, in Chicago Mayoraltiy races. His real name was Thomas W. O'Brien, but he won the “Chicago” early in life when following the racing circuits. WHY THEY WERE TRANSFERRED. An Associated Press dispatch in The Empire yes- terday said: Lisut, James A.

And| so rapidly are the imitators closing in on the ar- biters of fashion that, almost simultaneously with| predictions of a return to her mode, the Empress Eugenie's saucy bonnet shows a bumper crop. Dr. J. C. Flugel, Assistant Professor of Psychol- ogy in the University of London, predicts that this acccleration will be the death of fashion. “The pursuers are beginning to catch up with the pur- | sued,” he writes in the current number of “Psyche” in an article on “The Emotional Value of Dress.” “One can predict that eventually fashion may be killed off by a complete victory for the p\ll"SuE‘l'.s"l‘ = | (New York Times.) | The stock market, it is a pleasure to note, be-' haved this week in its usual intelligent and logical fashion. Prices sagged heavily on news that it was stiil raining on the Lindberghs at Point Barrow, but staged a sharp recovery when it became known that a ray of light from the star Arcturus would be used to set in motion the machinery at the Chicago Wprld's Fair, not later than June, 1933. The Government's cotton estimate, forecasting the ruin of elcven Southern States and probably the bankruutcy of the Federal Government, was the signal for one of the most active buying movements of recent months for an average gain of 8 points. Later in the week the note of buoyant optimism became still more marked, and was explained in some quarters as due to the expectation of war with Japan over the imprisonment of Pangborn and Herndon for taking pictures over Japanese fortifi- cations. The week closed with a swift advance in the entire list following upon a reported degrease in ar Financial. steel orders for plates and pipss. However, rails and industries ralied sharply in the last few minutes of trading on news that Dadou of Paris was launch- ing a new perfume enitled Mon Amour. Spruce vs. Other Lumbers. (Prince Rupert News.) Once again we hear that spruce is a competitive product with other species of lumber. This time H. R. McMillan, of course, an interested party, tells us that it is. If Prince Rupert people cannot use spruce lumber in their building, it may be necessary to close down the local mill, he says. Without reopening any argument as to the merits of spruce or any other lumber, it would seem to be highly advisable that, if spruce or any locally- produced lumber can be used at all in local build- ing operations it should be used. The closing down of the local sawmill would make the local unem- ployment situation just that much worse and, if there is anything reasonable local citizens can do to prevent the mill being closed, they should cer- tainly act accordingly.
