WINNIPEG, MBIL, Aug. 28, — Manitoba's high expectations from this year's harvest seem to be jus- tified from every quarter. Reports received by the provincial depart- ment of agriculture bear out the op- tiinislic statements made elsewhere. On the basis of returns received from 13,003 farmers out of 51,800 in the province it is estimated that the wheat acreage is 2,660,125 as against 2,195,377 last year, barley 1,937,263 as against 1,512,457, oats 1,458,401 as against 1,544,510, flax 81,789 as com- pared with 122,l79, fall rye 09,909 as compared with 113,270 and spring rye 20,313 acres. which is 2,700 less than last year. j

The acreage thus sown to the six crops is greater than in 1926 or 1927, being more than 13,12 percent larger than last year and is one percent greater than the average for five years. The wheat acreage is the largest since 1923; ‘the barley

TORONTO, Aug. 28. — Chins. through its consul iii Canada, Chow Kwo Ilsleii, is protesting against the (leclaratioii of Mayor McBride that he will enforce the statute passed by the Ontario Legislature iii the days of the Drury Government, which prohibits Cliinamen in On- tario frolii employing white women in laundries, factories and restaur- ants.

The consul made a special trip froln Ottawa to launch his protest. 11c told Mayor McBride that such action would be regarded as an in- fringcnicnt upon the rights of Chin- cs0 ivsldents of 'I‘0l‘0iito.

The answer of Mayor McBride was that there was statutory pro- vision agninst Chlnamen employing white women in iaundrles, factories and restaurants, and that so far as he was concerned, as Mayor and member of the Board of Police Ccmlnissiohers, that statute would be enforced in Toronto.

"It is u matter entirely for the Ontario Government," said the Mayor to the consul. "The Act is there and it has to be enforced.”

. The Act was placed on the statute books mainly through the instru- ineiitality of Hon. Waiter R. Rollo, then Minister of Labor. His sup- porters in the House were very much in favor of it. The Act. however, was only to come in force on proc- lamation. At the time it was un- derstood that the order-ln-Councll to this end was actually passed by the Cabinet. but lion. W. E. Raney, then Attorney-General. intervened.

His explanation at that time was that lntemational complications might arise if the Act was ever put into operation, so it was not.

Now the Act ia incorporated in the Revised Statutes of Ontario and as it stands today than is no need for any ordar-in-Counail or proc- lornation.
