‘in treatment between European and non-European grain producing lcountrles. The policy of favoring 'European grain producing coun- ltries, with which Dr. Riddell

Beatty, Pres- ldent of the Canadian Pacific Railways, as members. to investi- gate the railway situation in Can- ada appears probable. At the mo- melit, lt ls leamed, the matter is under consideration and an early announcement would not be sur- prising.
Amalgamation of the two sys-,

The 'attitude towards railway conditions, it is understood, is rather towards clim- ination of duplication, co-operative effort between the systems in the solution of railway problems and other steps along the lines of ec- onomy as effecting the railways.

HALIFAX, Sept. 18-Echoes of
the bold daylight robbery a few weeks ago, when two bandits en- tered a west end branch of the Royal Bank of Canada, tapped the manager on the head, locked the staff in the vault and escaped with about $16,000 in cash, were heard tonight when a squad of armed police rushed up to the same branch and entered. A crowd soon gathered, keyed up with excitement because of the fact that the bold robbers were still at large.
A telephone receiver left dang- ling from the wall and 'an alert “hello glrl" caused the excitement. (The girl had telephoned the police lthat a receiver was down in the ‘bank and she could hear someone talking.
