Criminologists Trying‘ To Prove Whether Two Finger Prints Are Ever Found Indentical

SAINT JOHN’, N. B. July 29.—On Christmas Day, 1923, an unusual ift was presented to Mr. and Mrs.

illiam T. Mahancy of this city in the form of four smiling babies- bow famous Mahaney quudruplcts \-thrce girls and, a boy. Today tJlCSe tour kiddies are again lllto the headlines, but for a fill" dlfififfilli» reason than their arrival about eight years ago as one of tfb few recorded births of quadruplcts in the history of the Dominion. The [our little sets of slim fingers are now being smeared with printer's ink and impressions made on inky gtass in an effort to ascertain whether or not it is possible to lure two finger prints fundamen- tally iticntical.

Debate has waxed warm on this topic for many years, Scientists claim they have proved that it i5 im; ble to have any two fintéc!‘ prints the same. But while debate continues, think what this matter of finger prints means, especially as it isrelatcd to the question of lost Oi‘ kidnapped children.

Sydney R. Vartlon, of Chatham. N. B., graduate of the New York School of Applied Science of I11- zicntification, a student of the IIl- mmational Crimlnologkt College in ballastics and graphologyi, came here to secure evidence to sub- stantiate the views of the scien- ltists. He said the evidence secured iirom the prints of the Mahaney children would mean a. lot to tile {world at large. In cases of kidnapp- ing, photos are uslsss after a few

Cattle Exports Are 10,000 Head

OTTAWA, July 28.—Approxlmate- ly 10,000 head of cattle have seen shipped from Canada to the Un- ited Kingdom so far this season. Cables received today by Hon. Rob- ert Weir, Minister of Agriculture gave the result of the latest ship- load which was landed at Glasgow. One lot of cattle from Ontario will net back eight and a half cents a pound to the shipper and anoth- cr seven and a half cents. A car- load of yearling steers from the Ross ranch, Alberta, brought an average of l9 pounds 12 shillings. This should not the exporter $65 or $70 a head.

Essentially the new Australian treaty represents an effort to have trade follow the flag. Notwithstanding that for years Canada has been selling to Australia from four to six times as much as she buys from her, Inter-Imperial

sentiment was so strong in the Commonwealth that a reciprocal arrangement was possible.

As compared with the previous treaty, the present one is infinitely more comprehensive. Whereas under the old arrangement Canada secured preferences in only some 28 items, and the British preference in only four, the Do- minion now secures the British preference under 416 of the 433 items which comprise the Australian tariff. Im- portant advantages, running up to approximately two shillings per hundred square feet as against the American product, are secured for Canadian lumber, which under the late treaty enjoyed no preferences whatever. Canned fish, notably. tinned salmon, secures an increase in the preference accorded it of from three to six cents per pound. Canadian newsprint is to go into the Common- wealth free, while a duty of 4 pounds sterling (about $20) per ton is to be imposed on imports from other countries. "

As compared with the former treaty, the present one embodies some important general features. In the first place it is provided that in valuing an article the only freight rate which can enter into the total is the freight from the point of shipment to the nearest port 0f exit from the country. Thus the freight to be calculated 0n an article shipped from Montreal, would be the freight from Montreal to the New York State border, notwith- standing that the commodity might leave Canada by Vancouver. This concession removes an important source of objection to the old treaty. Another provision of im- portance is that the treaty cannot be revoked in whole because of disagreement developing over any one item. Both countries agree that neither will impose dumping duties against the other.

Australia’s share of the treaty’s benefits consist in a market for her tropical fruits, dried fruits, and sugar. She is accorded a tariff of five cents per pound on butter, comparing with the general tariff of eight cents per pound to other countries and with the rate of one cent per pound enacted by the King Government in the old treaty. She secures a preference on meats and, while the duty is higher than under the old rate in order to protect the Canadian producer, the spread between it and the general rate is increased so as to make the difference greater.

To sum up, the great gain for Canada in the arrange- ment is the advantage she secures over the United States in seeking to enter Australian markets. To quote a few examples: on lumber Canada will have a preference of $5 per 1,000 feet board measure over the States; on unassembled motor car chassis the Australian rate on Canadian imports will be l5 per cent and on Ontario im- ports 32V; per cent; on assembled chassis the duties will be 32 and 45 per cent respectively; on canned salmon the Dominion will enjoy a preference of six cents per pound and on newsprint of $20 per ton. .

CARE OF SCREENS

Probably no other part of. home equipment ls so badly neglected or will return so much profit for a. small amount of care as do the screens. In the first place, they should be substantially made with corners well fitted together, fasten- ed with screws’ and strengthened with flat corner irons. They should be made full length of the windows in most cases, should be hinged at top so they can be opened when desired. Each frame should be fitted carefully to its particular opening, and both opening and frame should be marked plainly so that there will be no chance for getting o. frame ln the wrong place. Don't depend on your memo y or on a list posted some place, as you may not be there next time they are to be put in place. Metal figures made especially for this purpose can be purchased in nearly any hardware store, or very serviceable figures can be made by using the point of a. screw driver.

When finished and properly fitt- ed. the frames should be given two c011“ 01 800d paint, especial care being taken to get the paint into the points at the corners. They should then be covered with good wire screening. The copper coated wire ls much better, but the cheflp- or black will give good gefvjcg 1f properly cared for.
