“Grattan Royal wore the straps. Whether he needed them-really —-I cannot say. He found his way to Canada as a colt-and in Can- ada pacing and hobbies had even before his day become synonym- ous. He had never started in a race. as I recall it, when he came out as a five-year-old at the old Fort Erie track. across from Buf- falo, in a $5,000 stake for the 2.11 class. only one heat was paced. won by Del Rey (then a sensation) in 2.08. in the rain.

"Grattan Royal finished fifth in a field of eight and the race was declared finished, continued rain making it impossible to conclude the meeting. The next week Grand Rapids, Mich, entertained the Grand Circuit. The opening event was a purw of $1.000 for 2.15 pac- ers. which he won, low-roping the field, in 2.06%. 2.08. 2.07%. Later in the week he was started back in a $5.000 stake for the 2.11 class. In. the first heat there was a fur- ious finish between him andFi-ank Bogash. Jr.. which he lost by a head in 2.05%. In the next heat he was fourth when Bogash again won in 2.04%’. His knee was troubling him and in this heat he struck it again, and came out in such shape for the third that he was unable to extend himself, broke repeatedly and was distan- ced. Those were his only starts that season, as it was found im- possible to get him back into form. Nat Ray was then racing him.

"S" 1 fly he was sold and drifted to Illinois and elsewherein the Middle West, leading a pillar- to-post existence. Al Thomas tried to race him but started him only once and then gave him up and that ended his turf career. He was sold and traded around. and virtually went begging fora home, when as he had got a few foals in Canada and they were showing well. he was bought by Chas. P. Barrett. of Park Hill. Can., to go back there. where. one may say, he [immortalized himself by prop- ligating one of the most remark- able pacing families ever known; though he died before his time when he should have had years of usefulness ahead of him."

Commenting on the above inter- csting particulars I may say that Mr. Harvey is mistaken re Grat- tan Royal never having started in a race when he came out as a five-year-old for the $5.000 stake at Port Erie track. Grattan Royal had been raced during the pre- ceding winter by Nat Ray over the ice at Dufferln Park, Toronto. and had set up a new track peeing record over ice of 2.13% there.

Maine is chock full of harness horses in training at Lewlston. Charlie Mason has fourteen and Jimmy Jordon a similar number. Among those in‘ Mason's stable are Rip Hanover 2.01%, Buck Hanover 2,09%, Happy 2.06, Quick Quaker 2.00%. Ruth Strang 2.10%. etc. The fast ones in Jordan's string in- clude Forbes Direct 2.03%». Czar Frisco 2.06%. Estelle D. 2.05%. Yankee 2.10, Dick Hall 2.11%.

Billy Hall has four head at Auburn. Maine: Harvest High 2,07%, Calumet Chlmcs 211". and a green trotter and W90!‘- D8601‘ Henry Clukey has six livndinclud- Ing Laurel Hanover 1.53%. flurry Invell has John Judy 2.01%. Alvin Guy 2.06 and Foile 2.01%.

The above is but a sample sel- ection ef the hundreds of trotters and paeers now being trained over the race tracks in Maine. The ad- vent of Parl-Mutuals and a good potato crop. has given a new fillip w the sport of kings in the Pine Tree State. Of course owners’ hopes are high and every trainer expects to be heading summaries. but where many are called few are chosen. and no doubt there willbe

a big weeding out of race mater-

MINE THEORY

delicate task in trying to find who placed a mine in waters east of Gibraltar, which are near a Spanish government port but in which In- surgent warcraft had cruised fre- quently.

CHARGES MADE

The Insurgent command at Sal- amimca charged the explosion was "dastardly red manoeuvre." It hint- ed the Spanish government had foreknowledge of it because govem- mantwarships were closer enough by to give "immediate assistance."

At Valencia the government press called the blast “another step in international Fascist provocation“ and a "criminal aggression.” Re- ports from the Febus-Spanish gov- ernmenwnews agency said “most consistent accounts” indicated the Hunter was torpedoed by a. German submarine.

A joint commission of British and Spanish naval officers began hi: examination of the Hunter's hull at Almeria. Divers were sent down to examine her ripped-open bows.

"a wicxm 1.1a"

BERLIN, May 14—-(C.P.-Hava.s)— Spariish press charges that a Ger- man submarine torpedoed the Brit- ish destroyer Hunter aroused indig- nation here tonight.

"A wicked lie,” was the caption under which the D. N. B. (German news agency) commented on “how the accident to the Hunter is being wrongly used to agitate against Germany."

EMPIRE

(Continued from“ page 1)

mlnioifs domestic aflairs. the Can- adian Premier said that foremost among the tasks facing the coun- try was a careful study and ad- justment of problems arising from the differences 1n the economic situation in t.lie various parts of the Dominion. Problems had been brought to the surface which “may require some readjustment of the financial and constitutional relat- ions between the Dominion and the provinces".

Mackenzie King expressed the conviction that enduring peace could not be achieved without ec- onomic appeasement. that political tension would not lessen without an abatement of the policies of economic nationalism and econo- mic imperialism.

“The countries represented here", he said. "have a definite responsi- bility to join with other countries willing to cooperate in a concerted eflort to avoid increasing tariff or exchange or quota controls and to lessen in every practicable way the barriers f0 international trade." '

Canada already had endeavored to open up the channels of trade. Negotiations with the UnltedStales and the United Kingdom had led tosubitantisl tariff reductions. In no instance were the concessions to either country effected by rais- ing duties against any other coun- try. If this policy were continued, he indicated. it would be a con- tribution to s. revival of trade and the consequen removal of inter- national friction and confiict.

International Outlook

Baldwin said it was fitting that foreign affairs and defence were to be the principal subjects of the conference, for the Empire states- men were meeting st a time when the international situation was difficult. even threatening.

“Responsibility rests upon us in see that our deliberations, not only are of service to ourselves but also may help in some measure to- wards a solution of those inter- national problems which are per- plexing the world". Baldwin said. "No more important subjectscould engage any responsible body of men".

Speaking of the Government's rearmamcnt policy, Baldwin said that with many of the most pow- erful-nations of the world expand- ing their armed forces "n ~ in this country have decided that it is our duty to put our defences in order at a cost the magnitude of which

"balance" of competition and found "wanting."

Reverend Chaplain. Reverend Sisters, Officers and Members of the Catholic Women's League.

“The annual meeting of our Branch of the Catholic Women's League brings 115 together tonight to give an account of our steward- ship as members of this subdivis- ion. and it is customary at this time to review ou.r~ work oi the past twelve months.

“You have just listened i0 the splendid reports of our cffzcieiit Recording Secretary, Mrs. Ernest DesRoclies. and of our also equal- ly efficient Treasurer. Miss Gert- rude Leckie. and I believe you will all agree with me when I say that their reports are very satisfactory and encouraging.

"Our Recording Secretary's re- port reviews in detail. in a very concise manner, the scope of the various activities of our Subdivis- ion during the past year, and I feel we have every reason to be- lieve we have accompli=hed some- thing worthwhile.

“Each little contribution of our Subdivision, whether it was given to the sick, the poor and the needy. the Church. the cause of education or merely as a token of appreciation. was first a charitable thought conceived in our organiz- ation. fostered, and later put into action by a united group. of

About fifty cars followed in the procession to. the grave. The many beautiful floral tributes bore silent testimony of the very high regard in which the deceas- ed was held.

The pallbearers were Councillor D. F. MacNeill. J. F. Arnett. Eric MacKay, Melville Bradshaw, C. B. Jelly. E. M. Nicholson. Interment was in the family plot at the People's Cemetery. S

“We deplore the necessity of it but we had no choice". the Prem- ier declared. "We shoulder that burden for the security of this is- land, which is still the heart of the Empire. but also that we may be equipped to fulfil our responsi- bilities in guarding the security of the Empire overseas and as aloyai member of the League of Nations.
