Premier Lyons offered two cabi- net positions, and an assistant min- ister's post, to the leader of the party whose support is necessary in the new Parliament to maintain control, since the United Australia party lost its independent majority in the gen- eral elections Sept. i0.

NEW YORK, Sept. flil-Sharpened to a. knife-like edge, a metal spoon was found today in the cell of iZruno ard Hauptmann, shortly after h counsel said a psychiatrist would examine the alleged Lindbergh ran- som extortionist, presumably to de- termine the possibility of an insan- ity defence. To prevent any attempt at suicide, or escape, sheriff John Hamley of the Bronx, doubled the guard out- side Hauptmanrfs cell after finding the spoo .

Accompanying the spectacular development, a close friend of the German alien err-convict, Hans Kloppenburg, was picked up and questioned by District Attorney Samuel llbley. Kloppenlrlngs pic- ture was in theflauptmann album and he has been‘ smigiht for several

days.

Asked what he thought were Rauptmanrfs intentions with the spoon, Foley sold: "You may use your own imagination."

The spoon was stolen from the breakfast tray.‘ It was broken into sections. The bowfi had been whet- ted down to s keen edge, evidently by rubbing it against the steel slats of the cell. Its absence from the tray was noticed in the kitchen some time later. The prisoner was taken to another cell, search was nude at once. The sections were found in the drains of the toilet and washbeein.

At about the same time, Attorney James mwcett. Hauptmannu coun- sel disclosed he had instructed a psychiatrist to examine the prison-

er.

“I intend to coll in a doctor and a psychiatrist," Fawcett said, "to look over my client as a Dart oi our defence. The examination will be made tomorrow in the jail. I am going to be guided by their advice.”

"Does that mean," raweett asked. "that insanity may be the defence?"

"You can draw your own con- clusions." was the reply.

The United States, it was officially disclosed, feels it will be unable to participate in efforts to settle the war as a member of the League committee. Washington made it known, however, that it will be guided by a spirit of friendly/co- operation although ectlng independ- ently, and will support any plan of settlement which will lead to a peaceful conclusion of the conflict. Senor Bedoya, Paraguayan repre- sentative, said in a press interview, Paraguay wants the United States included in the American notions, which in the opinion of Paraguay should be delegated to settle the conflict.

CIITAWA, Sept, Bil-While there were 200,000 subscriptions to the i919 victory loan which is to be re- funded next week, only 42,000 hold registered bonds. Owners of the bearer bonds are scattered through- out Canada and the“ United States and it is estimated. by Hon. E. N. Rhodes. Minister of Finance, that there will be at least 100,000 in this does. The Minister has directed a letter to each registered holder outlining the terms of conversion.

Details of the $250,000,000 loan i0 be offered Monday morning, cf which $220,000,000 is for refunding the 1219 Victory loan will not be made public until the books open. During the first week of last year's offer for conversion of the $170,- 000,000 in victory bonds then due, more than $140,000,000 were ex- changed.

The department is hoping for an even greater conversion in the pre- sent issue judging on the reports of trends in the investment mar- kets. All previous Dominion of Canada refunding loans are selling

Agreement Supplementing Ex-j isting Treaty Will Be Signed By Premier Bennett And Frencli Commerce Minister Todayi

(C. P.-A. P. Cable By Guardian's Special Wire)

PARIS, Sept. 28-Granting to Canada of a definitq minimum quota of wheat she may export to France, regard- less of any future import restrictions, is believed to be id feature of the supplemental Franco-Canadian tradetreatj negotiated here by Prime Minister R. B. Bennett.

The agreement, supplementing the existing tradq treaty between Canada and France, is complete with thd exception of a few minor details. It is to be signed tomor- row by Premier Bennett and Lucien Lamoureux, Frencli Minister of Commerce. Its terms were not officially re-

\

following:

Minimum quota for Canadian . wheat, to be replaced on the min- imum tariff list; removal of the special exchange surtax of ll per- cent from Canadian products; re- duction to a flat rate of two per- cent of the additional special im- port tax on manufactured and i-manufactured goods, now ranging from two to ‘six percent. Automobiles, frozen salmon and other products specially affected.

In turn, it was ‘said unofficially. Canada would grant certain ad- vantages for French wines enter- ing Canada, while considering re- duction in tariffs on certain other French products at a later time.

Pending official announcement of the agreement these were entire- ly unofficial forecasts of the terms. Uncertainty surrounded the spe- cial exchange surtax, imposed against nations with depreciated currency.

France has been using these du- ties as a bargaining weapon. she removed them against some coun- tries, as in the case of Britain with whom she signed a new trade treaty recently. But they are still applied against Canadian goods.

hunched With French President

Premier Bennett had the honor 0f lunching today with President Albert Le Brun of France at Ram- bouillet. He leaves for London at noon tomorrow, and will sail for Canada at the end of next week, it is expected.

French papers were compliment- ary today concerning Premier Bennett's cordial speech at thc dinner given in his honor last even- ing by Philippe Roy, Canadian Minister to Paris, st which mem- bers of the French Cabinet and ambassadors to Paris were present. Premier Bennett spoke of the pleasure it had given him to wei- come the French delegation to the Jacques Cartier celebrations in Canada last month.

He spoke of the ceremony itself, of how it recalled the stirring days of long ago when the early French explorers made their way to Can- ada, and dealt with the contribu- tion French language and culture had made tc the building up of the Dominion.

"Canada," he proceeded, "earn- estly desires peace. Canada like the rest of the world has suffered from the crisis but she is pulling stead- ily through. She is endeavoring to build on Christian civilisation with e. foundation of liberty and free- dom."

"Canada's eyes are turned to- wards Europe. she is interested in everything going on here: she re- cognises the efforts being made to maintain peace, and from this viewpoint she pays a special trib- ute to France."
