' SYDNEY, N. 8., Aug. Kid-Trans- Atlantic ﬂying will soon be down to a commercial basis, Captain J. A. Mollison told the members of a Sydney Service Club this after- noon. A guest in this city as he waits for weather suitable for a hop to Harbor Grace on his way back to Britain, the Scottish flyer spoke briefly after a luncheon en- gagement.

His own westward solo flight across the Atlantic had convinced him, he said, that little trouble would be experienced in designing heavier planes suitable for regular mail-carrying crossings. He had been very pleasantly impressed with Canada, and announced that his wife, Amy Johnson, planned to come out to the Dominion for a visit "before long.’

Among the friends Captain Mol- ‘lison has made since his arrival here is F. W. “Casey" Baldwin, who was associated with Alexander Graham Bell in aviation experi-

S T R I K E R 8' R E T ii R N I N it MANCHESTER, Eng, Aug. 30.- Labor union officials estimated to- night that l45,000 cotton wearers had answered the strike call in the Manchester textile district, and that so far as plant stoppage was concerned the walkout was about 05 per cent effective. These leaders asserted that some of the men still working will go on strike tomor- row, but operatives at Leigh voted tonight to return to work tomor- row after only one day's strike.

There have been no serious dis- turbances, although picketing has been widespread and there have been a few isolated demonstrations against strikebreakers. Sixty police charged a crowd of about 2,000 strikers at Bamoldwick. who were taunting 2,000 workers leaving the mills.

Thus far there has been no in- dlcation of official intervention, al- though it is believed that Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald may take aome step within the next few days if a settlement is not reached.

Strikers took part in a ‘ - atration tonight esalnst operatives brought into the great Harwood mills, who worked there during i-he day.

AGRICULTURAL AT TURIJNTU

(Canadian Press)

TORONTO, Aug. sit-Hon. Rob- ert. Weir told the National Confer- ence of agricultural officials here today that the United Kingdom had decided at Ottawa to protect her own farmers against competition in poultry and dairy products from European countries and toygive the Dominions and colonies an advan- tage. At present, said the Federal Minister of Agriculture, Empire countries supply only 30 percent of the eggs consumed in the United Kingdom and less than 25 per cent of dressed poultry. The object of the federal bull loaning policy, he explained, was to make sires of the right type and breed available to farmers in isolated outlying sec- tions, and to assure the best use of the animals. "I hardly see myself at the present time how there could be much conﬂict," he observed.

The present "spread" between what the consumer pays and the milk producer gets can be reduced, declared Dr. J. S. Booth, Commis- sioner of Agricultural Economics, Ottawa. In his opinion a 35 or 40 per cent spread was too much. "I submitf’, he added, "that work on the question of reducing costs which absorb '75 cents out of the consumer's dollar is a field inviting some consideration."

Comparable In Importance To L a a s anne

United Kingdom and the Domin-

upon their trade with other coun- tries has made the Imperial Eco- nomic Conference at Ottawa com-i parable in importance to the Laue- anne Conference, says the monthly letter of the Royal Bank of Can- ada.

"It may be that the conference in establishing closer trade relations within the llknpire mhde the first move towards tear- mg down the barriers to trade which were created by the war and by the suepicion, tear and hatred of the post-war period."

In connection with the trade agreements between Canada N“! the United Kingdom. the letter says it is too early to discuss the con- ’ which the Dominion made.

Indication of the increasing con- fidence of United States investors in the Canadian‘ dollar is shown by the offering tomorrow of a block of $2,500,000 Canadian Pacific Rail- way convertible l0 year bonds at a price to yield about six per cent, says the New York Herald-Tribune in a featured financial article.

A short-term issue of British Col- umbia debentures several weeks ago signaled the resumption of Can- adian financing on this market. These transactions are made pos-i sible by the realization of investors in this country that the current
