Has “Good Chance” For ‘Recovery — A Great Sportsman.

..__i

(Canadian Prue)

LONDON, Oct. l.—-Bir Thomas Lipton had what his doctors called "a sporting chance" tonight to sur- vive cold from which, it was re- vealed, he has been suffering for several days.

"There is an encouraging im- provement," one of his doctors said, regarding the condition of the yachtsman who has tried so often to win the America's cup and ai- ways lost.

Sir Thomas was conscious all day until this evening, when he dosed off. Members of his household ap- peared relieved tonight at the de- velopment. "The physicians believe the crisis past and unless there are complications we shall continue very hopeful," a secretary said.

It was in 1930 that Sir ‘Thomas made his most recent bid for the America's cup, taking over the Shamrock V, under her own sail only to be defeated by Enterprise, the best oi the United States yachts. Recently he decided to - ‘ e building his sixth challenger at least

quarried as to the origin of the new York reports that he had made an announcement that all obliga- tions of Canada would be met strictly in accordance with the terms of such obligations, the “Qrime Minister replied that he had made such a, statement yesterday afternoon in a brief conversation with a newspaper correspondent in the Ottawa (Railway station short- ly before lie boarded a train for ‘ Toronto.

He had given a, statement to the same effect and slightly amplified to the Associated Press, he re- marked, and could add nothing to it at present. | Pressed for information as to the ’ method in which the $13,000,000 ob-

ligation was being met, he replied ‘ t. L110 did not wish to talk about

“Could you not give us a little information as to the steps taken to coder the bonds," he was asked-

"My friend," he said sternly. "my job is to see that this country liv- es up to its contracts and as iorlg as I am there our obligatticns will be paid."

V "You must realize," he continu-

‘ed. "that Canada and the United States aru facing a crisis and that a lot of people don't seem to know it. Too many reports based on mis- , understanding and conjecture are ‘ appearing in Canadian newspapers being reproduced in the United States and doing a lot of harm.

"Only the other day a report cir- culated in Wall Street based on a Canadian newspaper story caused a lot of ‘trouble!’

"I can only repeat what I told you at; first that the obligation due tomorrow and all our other obliga- tions will be lived up to in the strict letter of agreements by which they were incurred. That stands as ii. ow and will stand as long as I e anything to do about it

Hoot GIiEson At! The Capitol

wlul lightning dexterity. FM Gibson jugglu- pirills, romance and humor in his latest Universal dia- logue picture, "Trailing. ‘lbw-ibis!’ which opened at the Capitol The- atre yesterday.

Hoot is at his amazing best 1n this production, which has the add- ed advantage of an unusual 010t- The famous wesiorn star runs the gamut of action from horses to airplanes clilnaxing with a hair- raising parachute jump. The picture is especially rich in Gibson's own inimitable brand of humor.

Hoot plays the part oi a eowim’ who takes a shipment of horses i0 Kansas City for sale. His rival for the hand of beautiful Molly, the ranch girl, conspires with big city desperadoea to separate Hoot from the money received for the horses. An attractive little Chinese girl is used Is the bait.

How soft-spoken, hard-fighting Hoot slugs and blarneys his wI-Y through the plots designed to rob him of his reputation and his B11‘! makes one of the most exciting and amusing films Gibson has ever turned out.

Charming Margaret Quimby is excellent in the role oi Molly, daughter of the wealthy ranchman, by whom Hoot is employed. Olive Young gives a highly amusing and appealing performancofin the part of Ming Toy, the little Chinese girl used to decoy Hoot to his supposed doom. Pete Morrison and William McCall also give hishly commend- able performances The picture grips attention from the moment the first scene is flashed on the screen, and there is not a. sign of a. let-down thereafter.

clnsll TRADE RElAlHlNS

Between Canada And West Indies, Stress- ed By Bank Mall- ager In Interview.

MONTREAL, Que, Oct. l-(B! the Canadian Pressl-"It is to the best interest of the West Indian to buy where he sells and so to in- crease his own prosperity as well as that of his best customer," stat- ed C. E. Neill, Vice-President and General Manager of the Royal Bank of Canada today in an inter- view conoernlng the Canadian Trade Exhibition cruise of the West Indies which will leave Halifax in January.

"The effort to promote closer trade relations between Canada and the British West Indies should receive general support. This is particularly true at the present time when the volume of world trade is small, and uncertainty in regard to financial prospects so great that trade between , iy ‘independent countries can be carried on only under conditions oi great difficulty," Mr. Neill said.

“As a result of the depreciation of the pound sterling, West Indian purchases will increase in Great Britain and also in Canada to the extent that the Canadian exchange situation favors the West Indian buyer. British West Indian pro- ducts have been shut out of the United States markets by adverse tariffs, and it is in Canada that these products can be sold to best advantage. Under existing condi- tlons the West Indian finds that his best opportunity both to pur- chase and to sell is in Canada where he ls favored by a gilbgign. tial preferential tariff and by a heavily subsidized and highly effi- cient steamship service.

Iooking at the subject in its broadest aspects, the British West‘ Indian can secure o. greater volume of required goods from Canada in return for West Indian products than from any other country. The Canadian delegation can feature the slogan that it is to the best in- terest ofthe West Indian to buy where he sells and so to increase his own prosperity as well as that of his best customer," he concluded.

Black Camel Season ’s Best Mystery Film

In common with so many others, this reviewer rated “Charlie Chan Carries On" as the best mystery talkie of the year when it was shown here. Up until last night he had no occasion to change that opinion, but the advent of "The Black Camel" at the Prince Edward Theatre yesterday alters matters. Here is a thriller, with the bland Warner Oiand again investing the rdie of Charlie with a conviction that ,uestions“y surpasses the previ- ous offering in entertainment and suspense. Once more Charlie makes his calm, unhurrled way through a tangled mass of conflicting evidence and false clues to a brilliant conciu sion, but a greater degree of unity and speed is maintained in tile new picture-due, probably, to the fact that all the action takes place with in two or three days and 1n one lo- cale, instead of being scattered hall way around tile world, as in “Char- lie Chan Carries On."

Many genuine glimpses of Ha- waii's romantic shores and breath- taking beauty spots feature "The Black Camel," most of which was actually filmed in the Islands, and these alone make the picture well worth seeing. Olandks work is even finer than in the earlier film, finc as that was; Bela Lugosi is out- standing as the sinister fortune- teller; Sally Eilers and Robert Young make a lovable pair in the juvenile leads. and Dorothy Re- vier, Victor Varconi, William Post, and many other screen notables round out an exceptional support- ing cast.

An excellent mystery play. Don’t miss it.

The coal fields were quiet, awaiting the outcome of an inves- tigation into the circumstances of the Florence strike, caused when the men refused to work with an overman who hid marked as "com- pany coal," a box of the fuel for the production of which a group of min ers claim they should have been paid. Interest in the strike is not as great as anxiety over wage negot- iations which started today, to ob- tain a new sgreeme ‘ to replace the two year contract which ex- pires February 2B.

The wage negotiations began this afternoon at the office of John C. Nicholson, General Superintend- ent of Mines for the Dominion Steel and Coal Company.
