Honor LaSalle As Pioneer For ' Great Traverse

(By The Canadian Prom) TORONTO, Dec. i0-—Discovery and exploration of primeval Can- ada and the navigable inland wat- erways, now the Great Lakes, the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, are ra- called by the plans at Rouen. France, for celebrating the 260th anniversary or Robert Caveller de la Selle‘; achievement in North America. La, saiie, a member of a rich family of Rcuen, crossed to Can- sda in 1606, when he was 28 yea-rs oi age. I-Ie was drawn to the New France by the fact his elder broth- er was a Bulplcien monk at Mon- treal. George M. Wrong! history relates the younger La Salle talked so much about reaching the For East by going up the St. Lawrence that the seignlory granted him was called in derision cllina-Lachlne- a name still rate-lied. Restless and ambitious spirit, La Selle would have none of the set- tler‘s life. He was eager for the. co ‘ of discovery. He sold his Canadian seigniory and in 1600 was at the Lake Ontario mouth of the Niagara River. Proceeding south- west he eventually came to the head waters of the Ohio River and ex- plored many miles down that stream. He was still searching for a route to the Par Bast. Returning to France he was hon- ored by his King and given an- other grant of land in the neigh- borhocd of Port Frontenac for the West, his new ides being to dis- cover and name a great Empire for France. His ship was wrecked in the Niagara River below the catar- act. Undaunted he built mother vessel, the Griffin, above the falls and navigated be: through the then unknown channels of Lake Erie, Lake Huron and Lake Michi- gan. ‘Tile craft was loaded with furs and started back to Montreal while Ls Selle went on through the territory now on the map as Illi- nois. The Griffin was lost with all her cargo. Of recent year-s there have been stories our locating her hulk and searching lt-further for historical purposes.

La. Selle returned to the mast but in i680 he was off again, this time on the overland trail, by a route leading from what is now Toronto, to Lake Simcoe and Lake Huron. Late that year he reached the head of the Mississippi. In 1608 he had paddled to its mouth on the Gulf of Mexico. It was then he took pos- Bwlon or Louisiana in the name of his King, Louis XIV.

Commemoration of La Belles exploits will take place in i937, in connection with the international tlllloaition of arts and crafts to be held in Paris that year. In addition, the France - American Society (l-‘rench section) plans to send a large delegati, to Canada and the United States to visit the terrli/OYY explored or discovered by the French pioneer during the latter Dart of the 17th century.

Rouen posseres a view of New Orleans, dated ms, and the stream which traverses the city is marked "The River o1 StJLculs or Missis- liillii". In addition, a dusty volume dated 1727, tells the story how a il-"Ollh of Ursuline nuns from Rouen had visited New Orleans the pro- ceding year.

As previously announced the subject under discusion was the “Sacred Vestments used at Mass and what they symbolize".

Mrs. Hewett, the leader, adroltly led the questioning so that every member- joined in the discussion. Explan- ations by the aid of accurate ref- erence books were very ably pre- sented by Miss King the secretary, Mrs. Prank Murray and Mrs. R. J. MacDonald. when a comprehensive knowledge of the subject had been arrived at there followed an hour of reading by Mrs. F. Murray who in her pleasing styl¢ presented the opening chapters of H. V.

At a late hour the meeting closed to meet again soon after Christmas. The subject at the next meeting will be "The Altar Linens and Sacred Vessels."

Big Plant Makes Gasoline from Goal

LONDON, Dec. il. -The Daily Express carries a special story to- da from" Stockton-orifices des- cribing how “Britain could make its own petrol." Its special cor- respondent writes:

Today I saw a truck oi’ coal tip- ping itself into s" hole in the ground atthe Imperial Chemical! hydrogenation plant at Blillngham.

An hour and a half later, hav- ing zigzaggled for miles on foot and in motor-coach through forty acres

gushing past a peephole in a pipe at the rate of 120,000 gallons a. day.

Never in this long journey did I see more than twenty human be- ings. Of these only five were im- portant, walking back and forward along a hundred yards of pressure gauges in the control room. With a few turns o fthe wrist they could almost in stantiy stop the heart-beats of this colossus.

Every yard of the miles of pipe is painted yellow if it conveys oil green for hydrogen, blue for the coal slush on which the oil and hydrogen are put to work at im- mediate temperatures and bewilder-

ing pressures Ycu see fifteen cigar-shaped tubes standing on end. These

seventy-foot cigars weigh one hundred and sixty. tons. Their ends are grappled to them with twenty bolts as thick as a man's thigh, and held by twenty nuts the size of a man's head.

For inside there are two hund- red and fifty atmospheres strug- gling continually to equalize them- selves with the one atmosphere outside. No one is allowed to stand near this heart. It is fenced in and floodlit by night.

Since February this plant has made thirty thousand tons, or nine million gallons of petrol-about 8 per cent of the nation's consump- tion. But if the world's supply of petrol were to diminish we in this country, it is claimed, could reach the point of exporting it.

Looking Forward To US. Election

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW YORK, Dec. 1i -Alfred Moasman Landon, who has been 9418i! 0n Kansas taxpayers dollars since he becarrw governor of that middle western state, may be the "political Moses" Republicans seek for 1986. The Dirty chleftalns of hiis state are booming him. William Ran- dolph Hearst has given indication that he would gladly throw the weight of his newspaper-chain be- hind the Kansasan. Today. it seems safe to assume his name will be to the front when the National Republican Conven- tion is called next June to name on Opponent for President Prank- iin D. Roosevelt in the November elections. “Alf" Inndon has the unique distinction of having made the Kansas budget come out even. His budgetary credo is "don't spend wihat ‘you haven't got." And that is an excellent selling point at a time when Roosevelt foes am rmt- ing about New Deal expenditures and the federal budget is billions out of balance. Ihndon has been a careful fin- ancial plotter practically all his life. He kept a personal budget while attending the University of Kansas and fellow-students dubbed hlrn “Foxy? He became an oil field op- erator and now, at 48, is reputed to be a millionaire. Sirlce he entered the gubernator- s.l mansion in 1932, Kansas State and local taxes have been cut ap- proximately $73.000.000. He cur- lled governmental activity and

The first Europeans who visited the islands of the Dutch East Ind- ies found the natives making use cf a whitish silky vegetable fibre which they called "randoe alas." Half a century later a few small parcels were rent from Java to Holland which brought the sub- stance to the attention of the rest of the world and to which has been given the name ‘of kapok.
