Rex layne Predicts Victory Over Cesar Brion r
NEW YORK. Feb. 3-(AP)-Rex Layne. the heavyweight pride of the Rodaies. came to town predicting victory over Cw" Brion "in a very tough light-"
"I've never seen Brion fight but they tell ma he's strong and keeps coming in all the time." said the 22-year-old Lewlaton (Utah) lar-.
ruper. "Well, that's all right with me. I fight the same way. It's going to be a rough go.”
They are due to meet in Mad- ison Square Garden next, Friday night.
Last Nov. 24 young Rex took on veteran Jersey Joe Walcott, the cutie who had come close to lift- ing Joe Louls' crown. as II 5 to 1 underdog. The result was the fistlc upset of the year. Rex won the decision in a decisive manner.
The 23-year-old Brion lost a ten round decision to Joe Louis in Chicago Nov. 29. That was his
last fight. He came out in good condition and believes he can whip Layne.

AUCKLAND, N. 2., Feb. 3 - (GP) -While dynasties have been falling all over the world, a mon- archy has been growing steadily stronger in the South Pacific in the little ltlngdom of Tonga. Even more novel in the modern world is the fact that Tonga, a British protectorate for 50 years, is satis- llfltl and does not want its rela- tions with Britain to be changed in any way. . t Tonga is preparing to cele- brate the 50th anniversary of the ratification of its treaty of friend- ship with Britain on Feb. 16, 1901.
In is statement on the treaty, the country's niler. Queen Balote. says: "For the people of Tonga, it has proved to be a blessing, as, with the knowledge during two world wars that we have been pro- tected by Great Britain, her Do- minions and her allies, we were able to proceed in security with our normal life. At the same time, I am proud to say that my coun- try has been able to render assis- tance to the cause oi freedom.
"It is my sincere hope and wish that the very pleasant and happy relations which have existed for the past 50 years between Great Britain and my kingdom of Tonga will continue undisturbed."
Manages Own Affairs
Tonga has its own postage stamps. passports and currency. It manages its own affairs entirely except that under the treaty with Britain it has agreed to accept the advice of a British consul and agent in its relations with other nations. The consul also approves the appointment of Europeans selected for service with the Ton- gan government and advisers on financial matters.
Otherwise the 45,000 Polynesians in the 150 Atolls and Islands which make up the kingdom of Tonga. or the Friendly Isles. are governed by a British-type consti- tution with a Royal dynasty, a cabinet, privy council and elected parliament.
Queon Salote has been on the
throne for 33 years, though she is still only 51. Her personal popu- larity is immense and the celebra- tions on her 60th birthday last year were marked by remarkable demonstrations of loyalty and al- fection. Finely proportioned to her exceptional height of six feet. one inch, she is every inch a. queen. gracious and gentle in manner and stately in bearing. She is a. direct descendant in the 21st generation of a distin- guished chief who founded the Tui Danokubolo Dynasty about 1610 and is the great granddaugh- ter of King Tupou I who intro- duced the existing pattern of democratic monarchy in Tonga in 1875. The Queen jealously guards the existing democratic constitution.
Queen ssiote speaks English with perfect accent and idiom. She pays regular visits to Auck- land, N. Z.. where she lives quiet- ly and unpretentlously and is now so well-known that Aucklanders treat her as one of themselves.
The heir to the throne,, Queen Salote's elder son, Prince Tungi, has recently become Prime Minis- ter after serving an apprentice- ship in other ministerial posts.

The four Western Provinces will be represented. along with rinks from Northern Ontario. Ontario, Quebec, Nova Sootia and New Brunswick. Prince Edward Island is doubtful. while Newfoundland definitely is a non-starter.

Federation Support For ll.S. Teachers
HALIFAX. Feb. 3 - (OP) The Canadian Teachers' Federa- tion Fnday night gave full support to the Nova Scotia's Teachers' Union in their campaign for a new salary scale in a statement issued hem by George Crosstree, Ottawa, Fed- eration Secretary.
Mr. Crossiree arrived in Hall- fax Wednesday to confer with N. S.T.U. officials and members of the union's salary comrnlttee. He also conferred with Education Min- ister Hicks.
He said despite increased pro- vincial government expenditures for school purposes which ”ia to the credit of the provincial gov- ernment", the situation "with re- spect to teachers' salarileswin Nova Scotia has deteriorated. Almost half of the teachers in the pro- vince are receiving less than :l25 a month. or about. 34 a day."
"How can iihese people, guiding the educational destinies and shap- ing the character of our young citizens, be expected to live nor- mal lives themselves 'and assume their own citizenship responsibili- ties on this kind of pay?"
Mr. Crcssiiree said the cost of living has increased over 20 per cent since the last salary scale was put into effect. And "the N.S. T.U.-proposed new scales do not even catch up with the increased cost of living."
"Teachers are asking for a sane minimum of tl.2Q0 instead of 51.- 020, and a basic maximum of 32,- 400 instead of 81,980." I
livery to a Federal-Provincial re- habilitation conference, he said it has been found that the great in- dustrial concerns hire only 10 per cent or all workers. The other 90 per cant find employment else- where.
Mr. Taylor said a physical disa- bility has no effect on a person's ability to perform a task if he is Placed on the right Job. Moreover, the disabled man usually had com. pensatlng skills that he had de- veloped because of his disability.
