March 28.—Dismissal - of non-American employes at the Amer- ican embassy here, which has been ordered from Washington, does not occasion any concern over the fact that they might reveal information of a secret character. since the em- bassy has always guarded confiden- tial correspondence with the utmost care. The embassy. however, is con- over . the reduction of its force, which aiready is cut down by changes made during the past year. During recent months, the American embassy here has been & source of supply from -which have been drawn men who have been sent to other diplomatic posts. s As a result the pfesent staff is comparatively new. £ Two English and one ‘Italian clerk will probably be affected by the new order. and it will be necessary to upplant them* with Amerigans hav- ng a thorough knowledge of talian language, customs and view- points. i - 2 The making of beots' and shoes in Canada dates from 1667 and is one of 'the oldest industries in the Do- minion.

Although men have been picked up by some fishing vessel, officials planned to con- tinue the search unremittingly.
