Motor Dispute Settled -- Another Glowing Tribute Paid to Canadian Art

LONDON, ‘May 29.—'I‘he Jlrltish Empire Exhibition, despite ‘fine wen-tiller. ‘has ‘niq-t even- ‘realized last year's attendance. and proiiifltimlfl are prying made that tit vinill do ‘no better later on. ‘Second-year ex- hibitions are seldom ‘successfwl, antd it ‘is complained ‘thatt ‘inadequate advertising has con-trilnitied -to the unsatisfactory showing ‘in Wearab- ley's case.

it is on open secret that uzmphmtic advice to embark on a publicity campaign was tendered to exhibi- ‘iion commdssione... ‘by the ‘Canad- ian ‘exhibition commission a montth ago, but. :‘t does not seem ‘to have tborne fruit. Prom Canada's view- point, ‘however, any success Weinb- ley vmay aciriwe ‘in its second year —whether great. or emall—~is- clear profit. since the continuance of the Domlntion Government's ‘build- ing will ‘not cost ‘the country any- thing.

This very satisfactory arrange- ment was made with ‘the British Empire Exhibition Commissioners before Canada agreed to participants ‘for another year.

Th‘; settlement announced today of t-he ldbei action brought by ‘the Society of ‘Motor Manufacturers and Traders against the British Empire Exhibition recalls ‘the dis- pute which at one ‘time threatened to ‘prevent Canada's participation ‘in the exhibition this year. The society decided not to exhibit at Vifictmlbley ‘U14!

This ‘is what P. G. Konotiy, one oi ‘the best known London art cult. lcs, ‘has ‘to say o ft-he Canadian art exhibit at Wonhbley:

"Whereas Australian art pre- sen-is itsclf as an offshoot of the Royal Academy slightly modlmgd by Australian atmosphere. and South African art has not begun ho show nny ‘sign of ‘individual line, Canada ‘has not only gained artistic independence, but ‘can boast of a retvl National school that owes litt- ille or nothing to European intfluen- ce It ‘is racy, ‘of the ‘soil, and ex- presses ‘Canadian landscape antd Canadian life ‘in idZ-om of its own.

If Miners Refuse Tgrms Princess Col- liery Will Cease to Operate.

Noam SYIDNEY, May 29.- Prlncess Colliery, Sydney Mines, will not re-operute this yenr unless there is an end, within two weeks. to the strike which has tied up the British Empire Steel Corporation in Nova Scotia for the past twelve weeks, according to information in circulation, following ‘the confer- onoe of Corporation officials with President 1R. IMI. Wolvin, which has been in session in Sydney for the past two days.

'i'he report was confirmed in of- ficial quarters tonight,

Princess Colliery is the only Scotia colliery in the town of Syd- ney Mines, which has been in oper- ation durlng the past year. Previ- ous to the strike it employed ab- out 800 or 900 rnen and its closing down for a protracted period would cause economic disaster to one oi the oldest coal mining com- munlties in Canada.

One of the features for which Princess Colliery is noted is its ex- tensive submarine areas, which are also one of its chief draw- backs, because of the cost of oper- otlns. Sydney ‘Mines has already suffered seriously by the closing of Jubilee Colliery a year ago, on ac- count of the excessive cost of oper- sting. Three hundred and sixty mi- ners . sident in the town of North Sydney and Sydney Mines were thrown ouit of employment by the shut down.

Practical reasons are given for a prolonged suspension of opera- tion at Princess ‘Colliery. Although the product‘ oi the“ mine is sold chiefly for domestic purposes on a Quality basis, a much longer con- tinuation of the strike will entail loss of orders that will compel the permanent closing of n number of collieries throughout the Province, and those mines least expensive to operate will be given the prefer- ence on all orders.

The only thing that will save the situation which now threatens North Cape Breton is an almost immedialte resumption of work, and there is no development now prom ising that will bring this about. So far as can be learned the Cor- poration has confirmed to its oiflo leis the intention of “standing pat‘- for the ten per cent wage cut. and non-unionization, though it i5 un- derstood concessions will be made to the lower paid men.

The rumor that the wage scale is to be posted this week and the whistle blown on Saturday night as an invitation to the men to resume work was definitely denied tonight, There will be no more dickering with the District officials of the United ‘Mine Workers of District No.10 and no wage scale will be ofliered, except at the invitaition of colliery committees, and no whis- tles will bs blown until a settle- ment is effected, is ‘the substance of a statement mad tonight by a responsible official f the Corpora- tion.
