(By the Canadian l'ress)-—The trend was re- versed on the local market today again and stocks resumed their downward movement, with new low levels for the year or longer recorded by some 13 issues in the course of the session. Apparently the fears that prompted Saturday's broad shorteoverlng move- ment in New York were alleviated con- siderably by tho opening today, for shortly thereafter selling again made its appearance uud rcfulteti iu many new lows iu the larger market. Al- though the grcain tuurkets lent some encouragement. with a renewal of the upturn commenced Saturday, the clos- ing tone on the stock exchanges was heavy, with many issues at their low- rat levels of tho session. Herc. the ludey dropped 00 to s uew low level at ‘£0.78 with declines of seven points in glass, 2% points it; textile. and s point each in Steel of Canada and Bell Telephone the main factors la the width of the loss. Such issues as Hickel. Brazilian and Canadian Pacific, tho active lenders. were relatively steady moving within a nnrow area all session and closing little unchang- ed. The close was irregular.

Marine Estimates

(Canadian Press)

GHWWA. Ont’... April 11—Rapid PNITBN was made with the appro- priations for the Marine Department in the House of Commons last night. A vote of $180,400 was passed, after Alfred Duranieau, Mmister of Mar- ine. had tnld J. I". Pouiiot (Lib. Temiseousta.) that it was the inten- tion of the Government to give the people of Canada. the best radio ser- vice possible. To this end the mon- ey from the t2 license fee would be devoted. Anything remaining would go into the consolidated revenue fund. The appropriation was for “general improvement of reception conditions to licensed broadcast lis- teners." -

Several small items providing compassionate allowances to widows of fomier employees who bad lost their lives in service were granted.

Discussion arose in respect to an appropriation of 01,800,000 for oon- struction, maintenance and super- vision of aids to navigation includ- ing salaries and allowances to light- keepers. William Duff (Lib. Anti- gonish Ciuysboro), ya ‘ ' ‘ the "waste of money in holding m- vestigations into charges made against light-keepers and postmas- ters following change of parties af- ter‘ a general election. He was not complaining of the dismissal of of- ftciais. but, said Mr. Duff, thousands of dollars were wasted on these ao- caiied investigations. The investig- ator went to hold them with his

doing to do, and the whole thing was o waste of money. o

so. Dal! also made a pies. that salaries of light-keepers be exempt- ed from the l0 per cent. cut in civil service salaries. He spoke ot the re- mote and lonely places where these _ lights wen located, the small sine of the salaries. and the gravity of the diesels 0o the men. It would ‘not be right to out their salaries, he continued.

A. W. Neill (Ind. Oomok-Albcrni). suggested that. the Government
