HALIFAX. Sept. l'l—(CP)—1An- napolls Valley fruit-growers mark- ed up a loss of about $1,000,000 to- night while widespread sections elsewhere in the Maritime Prov_ inces surveyed damage running in- to the hundreds of thousands of dollars in the trail of last night's near-hurricane.

Hardest hit by the furious blow, the orchardists of Nova Scotia’s fruit belt had seen an estimated 600.000 barrels of ripe apples tum. bled to the ground. just, about 5O per can‘. of their expected 1,260.- OOO-harrcl crop. The apple mgr- keiinrz hoard here estimated to- night this would cost them $1,- 000000. .

Elsewhere, new reports of dam. age continued to trickle in as line- men patched up communication linos snapped by the gale that whisilcd ‘up from the tropics. Doz- ons of districts reported minor de- struction and discomfort caused by broken power and communi- cation facilities.

Fishermen Suffer -

From shore areas came word that fishermen had suffered heav- ily by the gale, which swept in with the highest tides seen in some areas in years. Along the Nortliuinboriand Strait shore, lob- stormon had lost thousands of dol- liirs worth of gear.

Small shipping was battered sovorclv. Besides two slzeable pleasure yachts driven aground in Halifax. small vessels in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were sunk n1" soiit adrift. At Brooklyn, N. S.. a dredge with two men aboard was swopt inshore tossed above the high-water mark. The men wore safe.

Around Port Grevilie in the Bay of Fundy, the pvater was littered with timber from four scows. Two of the scows were driven aground.

Prince Edward Island escaped with only slight loss, the peak of tho storm apparently missing the liitlc province as it swept north- eartvvarci. About a dozen trees were felled in Charlottetown, and power 1illld t-oiiiinunication lines were ldowncri. but services were back to inovinul tonight.

Will Take No Action Against Toronto Teacher

‘TORONTO. Sept. l7—-((7Pi- The board of governors of the Uni- versity of Toronto have decided no action should be taken in respect to a recent speech of Prof. Frank Underhill in which he was quoted as saying Canada has two loyal- ties--"one to Britain, the other to North America," Dr. Bruce Mac- donald chairman announced today. he said:

“There is no stonographlc report or other satisfactory evidence to support the published account as to what was Prof. Unrierhills statement at the couchlching con- ference. Therefore no action should be taken in respect thereof. We

hope the incident is closed now . . . the board has investigated the affair thoroughly."

Yesterday Dr. Macdonald said

Prof. Underhlll had submitted "in- controvertible evidence" to the board that "he is pro-British and wants Britain to win the war."

The Canadian Press noted Prof. Undorhill as saving at he Aug. 24 conference of the Canadian In- stitute on Economics and Politics: "We now have two loyalties-one t4; Britain, the other to North Am- erica. I venture to say it is the second. North America is going to be supreme now. The relative im- parlance of Britain is going to sink no matter what happens."

Unless the Royal Air Force could stop the Germans short of British shores. however, Mr. Browne fore- saw a terrific problem confronting the British. If the Germans were once able to establish a. bridgehead and move men. supplies and tanks across for two or three days, he feared the situation would be des- aerate.

Both men thought the fight- ing qualities of the British sol- diers might be more suited to the kind of war which would be fought in such circumstances than the qualities of the Ger- man soldier. The latter func- tioned best when he worked ac- cording iu 11 plan. The former wen better at improvisation un- dcr difficult and perplexing eon- ditions.

Moreover they thought British equipment. was sure to be new and un-to-date because the British were so slow in ut-tiinp their supplies.
