Urges Uniformity In Judging At Fairs

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

AMHERST. N. 8., Nov. 9—The Maritime Winter Fair would undergo a great expansion within a short. period, C. F. Bailey. presi- dent of the Maritime Stock Breeders Association, declared to- day at a banquet for officials of the association, special guests and newspapermen.

Plans for expansion were al- ready underway, the speaker de- clared, and when the program hud been completed, the fair would be surpassed by the Royal Fair in Toronto. .

Uniformity in judging at dif- ferent fairs was discussed by J. W. Boulter, Charlottetown, manager of the Prince Edward Island Ex- hibition, who stated an animal might take first place in Char- lottetown and be at the bottom of a fair in another part of Can- ada. He urged a school or oon- ference for judges at. exhibitions.

Plans Introducing Na- tional System 0f Unemployment Iii- suran-ce.

OTTAWA, Nov. 9 -—(CP)—-A national system of unemployment insurance to be initiated at the next session of parliament was

Minister MaoKenzie King to prem- iers of the nine provinces made public today. Agreement of the provinces on an amendment to the British North America Act would be necessary to empower the Federal

legislation and the letter asked the provincial governments to submit. their views.

King said, the Govemmentprcprs-

resolution of both Houses of Par- liament addressed to the Parlia- ment at Westminster. He foresaw no difficulty in obtaining the a- mendment if the provinces were in agreement.

The Prime Minister hoped also that the constitutional amend- ment could be obtained in time to present the unemployment» measure at. the same session. He would not say what particular un-_ gmployment ' insurance schema. was contemplated or whether ii- would be contributory.

The letter referred to a recom- mendation from the National Iun- I ployment Commission and added » that the Government shared "the I opinion thatm. national employ- ' merit service within federal juris- diction is a necessary complement of any plan of national employ- ment insurance."

Following is a copy of the letter addressed to the premiers Nov- 51

‘My Dear Premier: i

"My colleagues and I are con- 1 vinced that a national system of unemployment insurance would contribute materially to lndiviclusl security and industrial stability throughout Canada and would as- sist in mitigating the distress in- cident to any recurrence of win-- spread unemployment.

Force of 6,000 Faces Annihilation At Nantao Border-

i iiig On French Con-

i cession.

(By Lloyd lehrbas, Associated Press Foreign Staff) SIIANIIAI, Nov. lti-lwednes- - iiayj-The last remnants of Chin- ese forces in Shanghai, now al- ,most entirely in Japanese possess- ion, resolved today to resist until death in their isolated sector. The Chinese, estimated at about 6.000 men in the Nantm native district bordering the French con- cession, virtually were trapped in- side a. bayonet-pointed crescent of Japanese. It appeared certain they must be illlalllllllcd if they made a last stand. There was no avenue of ‘escape except across the Whang- |poo River or into the French lure: where they would be dis- ‘iinncd and interned.

Fcverishly Dig-in

The Chinese soldiers. helped by coolies worked feverishly by lamp- light digging trenches and raising sandbag barriers. French officers, however, said they were doomed if they defied the Japanese over- whelming strength.

‘The withdrawal of Shanghai's defenders under cover of darkness last night toward their "winter line" protecting Nanking, China's capital, was not a vital blow to the nations defences, General Chiang Kai-Shek declared.

He said it would shift the war scene to the great delta lands of the lake region west of shanghai where China has several strong lines reaching about 50 miles to Changsha, Kashing and Soochow.

Qulrs CONFERENCE

(Foreign Commissar Maxim Litvinoff suddenly left the Brus- sels Conference seeking a. basis for peace between China and Japan. It was believed hi; depar- ture was in protest against what the Soviet construe as a move to eliminate her from. a wmmlttee to consulate in the Chinese-Jap- anese dispute. Russia, however, left representatinon at the conference ‘which remained adjourned with- out an answer to its second invi- tation to Japan to participate.)

Japanese troops pressing in pur- sult of the Chinese retreating from Shanghai rounded the corn- or o_f the French concession and passed the Siccawei Cathedral along Slccawel Creek, the dividing line between Nantao \ and the Xlrrench area in western shangh-

South America Cn Vacation Trip

Former Prime KIT standing Labor Leader Succumbs To Heart Atta_cli Aboard Liner.

LONDON, Nov. 9—- (CP)—-J

rose from poverty in Scotland to Iii-clinic lliYiCU Prime

Minister of Great Britain, died cruise ship bound for South t America where lie had hoped to seek rest and recuperate his health.

Dr. Alastair MacKinnon, Mr. MacDonallPs son-in- law, received news by wire- less of the death of the Un- ited Kingdom's only Labor Prime Minister. He died aboard the liner Reina Dcl Paciiico at 8:45 p.m., appar- ently of a heart attack.

The body will be taken oil‘ the ship at. Bermuda, where it is due Nov. I5, and re- turned to England.

The 71-year-old f o r m c r Prime Minister with his daughter Sheila sailed last Thursday for South America i

“the most elusive of‘ all forms of happiness-rest.” He had planned to visit Peru and Chile and “to return when I have bad enough of it.

The day after he departed Earl Baldwin, his successor as Prime Nltnistcr, paid tribute to Mr. Mac- Donald in a public address, say- ing: “I never feel that Mr. Mac- Donald has had credit given him by the country due for services he rendered it in 1931 and in the years immediately succeeding."

Headed National Government

It was in 1031 that Mr. Mac- Donald formed the National Gov- ernment and in doing so broke with many of his old associatcsin the Labor Party.

Tonight two of those associates hastened to express their sorrow.

Former Home Minister John R. Clynes, who was a member of Mr. MacDonald's first Government and was intimately associated with him in his early Labor Party days, said “although after 1931 I had very acutc differenceg with Mr. Mac- Donald, 1 am intensely sorry to hear of his death.

"As, regards our acquaintance up to the break of 1931, I have the most peasant memories of his greatnessand his work. He was not only a great orator but a. great or- ganizer."

The veteran Labor leader, George Lansbury, said PI am dreadfully sorry. He was one of the pioneers of the Labor movement, and though we separated in 1931, all of us will remember what he did in the days when the movement was struggling."

PRIME MINISTER- INFORMED

Prime Minster Chamberlain rc- ceived news of his death shortly eit- t.er addressing the Lord Mayor's banquet in historic Guildhall, tnc occasion at which a year ago Mi: MacDonald suffered a sudden co.- lapse.

One of Mr. MacDonald's last comments oi‘ a political character was the assertion iic could not bc- lieve "lliis war tulle," a statemcn‘ that bore out iis yiars of ai-dcni‘ paclficism. He b ltcrly opposed both the South African and Great. Wars. , surrendering his leadership of Ln-i bor in the House Coirin ~ l ‘
