NEW YORK, N. Y. May 2'l—One of the happiest romances of the New York Aquarium, that of Mr. and Mrs. Shims T.

Mr. and Mrs. Grunt have lived for five years together in their tank, but into their life has como this Key West creature a gorgeous yellow grunt called Betty. Betty plopped into the Grunt home the other day and things have been in a terrible

state since. Betty made straight for Mr. Grunt and right in front c! the Missus too. Mrs. Grant's anger knew no bounds. She dived first at Betty and then at her spouse, upsetting them no little; and then she went aftor friend hubby, around the tank for all she was worth.

Member For Winni- peg North Centre, Likens the Liberal Party in Canada to the Decadent Liberal Party in Great Bri- taim-Refuse To Re- cognize Changed Conditions.

OTTAWA. Ont, May 27—What the future holds for the liberal par- ty in Canada was prophesied in an aside before the House oi’ Commons yesterday by James S. Woodsworth. Labor member for Winnipeg North- Centre. Rt. Hon. MacKenzle King. leader of the Liberal party had rais- ed technlcal objections to the gov- crnmenlfs proposals to grant the provinces assistance for vocational education.

Thili prompted the Winnipeg La- borite to say of Mr. King, he "brought forward a number of loch- nical objections and as I listened I could well imagine myself back 50 years in the age of Gladstone with his ‘retrenchment and reform‘ be- cause on these matters I do not think the Right Honorable gentle- man (Mr. King) has travelled much in his thinking beyond the age of Gladstone ancLthe ancient Liberals of that day. ‘i

“But the times have moved on and that, may 1 w. is the trouble the Liberal party in Greet Britain and it is going to be the trouble with the Liberal party in this country. They are refusing to recognize the changed conditions and they satisfy themselves with mumbling slogans at a. time when they will not work.

A member of the Liberal opposi- tion asked Mr. Woodsworth ii he were "talking as a prophet?"

"Th; honorable ‘gentleman can take it that way ii he likes," replied Mr. Woodsworth. "I think prophecy is justified when you see the decline of the Liberal party in Great Brit- ain and you find the Liberal party in this country advocating similar policies. It does not take a prophet or the son of a prophet to know what the outcome is going to be."

Hon. W. D. Euler took up Mr. Woodsworthb comment after refer- ring to the reference that the Lib- eral party was apparently going down in England, and the Labor par- ty going up. He came back with the rejoinder that the Labor party was well led in England, and he em-

Senator J. J. Hughes M a k e s Emphatic Statements In Red Chamber.

(Canadian Press) OTTAWA, Ont, May 27—l12nlarge- merit of the Quebec-St. Pierre-Mio- uelon rum ring probe to include the Maritime Provinces was suggested in the Senate today by Senator J. J. Hughes, King's, P. E. I. He was in- formed, he said, the Government in- tended passing an order-in-council within a short time, fixing the pow- ers and scope of the invstigation.

Senator Gideon Robertson, Minist- er of Labor, promised to bring to the attention of the Government the sue- gestion made. He was unable to con- iinn, however, the xeport/ that a order-ln-councﬂ was in the process of being drafted.

Short-oircuiting of liquor cargoes from the Islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon to isolated splits in Quebec was charged against the rum ring. Senator Hughes declared. The Fed- eral Treasuxy, he was-convinced, had been mulcted out of millioms oi’ dol- lars in excise duties. but he did not believe the activities of the ring were limited to Quebec Province.

"The Maritime Provinces should be included in any investigation," the Prince Edward Islander declared. “We, who live there know a large volume of smuggling takes place there each year from St. Pierre and Mlquelon.

Not only was the Federal Treasury losing vast sums of money, but the people generally were being “demor- alized" by the volmne of smuggling. High duties against liquors were blamed by Senator Hughes for the sucoessfr} smuggling operations. He believed a change in the duties might be advantageous, although when they were raised during the war, he had believed a proper step had been tak- en. As long as the high duties ex- isted, he contonded, smuggling oper- ations would continue.
