T0 OBTAIN DEGREE

'MONTREAL Que., Feb. 19.-(By the Canadian Press)-A record as an international commuter, it is believed, can bc claimed by Char- les W. Kessler. of Plattsburg, New York, who will travel 30,000 miles or more by auto this year in pur- suit of a Master of Arts Degree which he hopes to obtain from Mc- Gill University ln 1933. The Unl- versity records show that Mr. Kessler is the first international commuter to attend McGill, al- though there have been scores reg- istered from all over the states of the union. 'Mx-_ Kessler is a Methodist mln- lstcr in Plattsburg where he serves two congregations ench Sunday. and by careful selection of his courses finds that it is not neces- sary to come to Montreal every tiny. He makes the trip by auto- mobile ln one hour and a hall' by taking a short cut over a gravel- led highway which lessens the mileage of the regular Lacollc 1111 Rousse‘s P int route by 12 miles.

A later meeting was held with the Advisory iBoard who gave no hope whatever that anything would be done. This proved to becorrect, for in a few days the High Commissioner received a. letter from Sir John Gilmour stat- ing that it was the British policy not to accept shipments of potatoes ‘from countries where the beetle was known to exist.

Interviewed Belverbrook

' Messrs. Smith and Boulter then ,sought an interview with Lord Beaver-brook, whose press had been advocating the lifting of the embar- go. Lord Beaverbrook proved to be keenly interested and gave assur- ance that he would at opportune 'times useevery effort to bring be- fore the British people the unfair- ness of the existing embargo.

_ "Lord Beaverbrook also arranged

an interview with Sir James

Dunn. Sir James is well posted on the whole situation. He is a force- ful writer and a. strong champion for the Maritime cause. We can ex- pect results from both these prom- inent former Canadians. and while the immediate results are disap- pointing the representatives feel that contracts have been made which, with the continuance of pressure from _federal authorities and others, will perhaps very short- ly prove successful. Unfortunately this may be too lute to bo of any benefit in moving the present sur- plus.” '

Both Mr. Smith and Mr. Boulter

spoke ln the highest terms of the High Commissioner .

“It is generally conceded by the

greatest Canadian authorities in London that he is outstanding in his ability as a High Commissioner and a mlm of untiring energy. He had done and will continue to do

The British Govemment may not be entirely to blame. They have the unanimous objection voiced by the National Farmers' Union of Great Britain to meet. The farmers really believe there

is n danger in introducing the lbeetle in potato importations. The press in general show the some ig- norance gf the bottles chara.c-t.erist- les as instanced by n writer in Lon- don Daily Mail of February 13, who says: ‘

Ordinarily the size. shape and

This is done by a study of the spectrum of the light sent out by the chromosphere and corona,
