MISSION CAR FOR OUTBACK

Recently Rev. C. W. Lanham. of the Methodist Inland lvfission. set of! from Brisbane in the latest model of utility-ambulance car on a drive of 1150 miles to Boulla, where the car will’ be used to cover the 128.000 square miles that con- stitute Mr, Lanham's territory. The care includes in its equipment a portable wireless installation and a cinema projmtor which will be used for the entertainment of set- tlers when the car visits isolated areas. In addition to ambulance and first aid kit, the car carries a circulating library of general liter- ature

Often when Mr. Lanham arrives at a lonely camp or settlement he has to perform a dental extraction or give first aid for some accident or ailment. Many of the adlilts in his area have never seen the sea, and as he will wor kin conjunction with the Bush Children's Health Scheme, recently launched by the Governor (Sir Leslie Wilson), many sick children in his district will be given the o Dlmrtunity oi a holiday at the coast-an experience which. without the new scheme, they might never have.

PILOT RESCUE!) BY LIFE SAVERS

A 131-150 plane, which was carry- ing newspapers, left Brisbane for the north, but when over the end of Britie Island it. ran into blinding rain and the engine stopped. The pilot headed for the mainland, but the plane did not have suifcicnt al- titude. and it fell into the sea some distan from the bcach at Cal- oundra. "

The pilot climbed out on to the wing of the floating aeroplane and waited the arrival of members of the Metropoliian-Caloundra Surf Club, who reached him quickly and towed the machine ashore. The piano received a severe buffting in the surf and the wings were tom away. but were later recovered by a batman.

This i s the first time in Austral- ia that such a rescue has been ef- footed.

BROADCAST LESSONS

The first experiment in Queens- land in broadcasting ‘ was carried out recently from a Bris- bane school by 4G0 and RR, the Queensland stations of the Austral- ian Broadcasting Commission. Schools in the districts served by the broadcasts wcrs previously sup- plied by the Department of Public

, sons. and at each school the broad-

Instruction with notes on the les-

casting teacher's instruction was followed on a blackboard. 'I'lle first lesson broadcast was on the chief agricultural products oi India, and the second was on the appreciation of verse.

The broadcasts were made with a view to determining the possibility of reaching scholars in the outback and also to provide teachers with an example of methods of present- ing lessons. The experiment was re- garded as eminently successful.

SLUG 0F GOLD 1N TROUSERS POCKET

Wrapped in a handkerchief and carried in the trousers pocket of One of the joint owners, a slug of smelted gold measuring 5in. x lléin. x 1'/.in.. weighing 7202., and‘ worth about £600 was brought in to a bank at Warwick. The slug is the largest to be‘ brought to Warwick since the early gold mining days. The gold was recovered from an old mine which had again become pay- able owing to the high price of gold.

QUEENSLAND ‘SHOWS DEFICIT

The Queensland Treasury returns for November show that the deficit for the previous five months was £731,699, as against £251,061 for the corresponding period of last year. The revenue for the first five months was £731,699, as against £251,061 for the corresponding per- iod oi last year. The revenue for the first five months of the pres- ent financial your was £5,348,107, compared with £5,314,438 for the five months to November 30. 1034 and the expenditure was £6,077,807, as against £5,565,499.

FIGHT AGAINST DIPTHERIA

More than 5000 children have been immunised against diphtheria by the Brisbane City Council dur- ing the year. Much oi’ the work has been done at schools in the metro- politan area.

The number of cases of diphther- ia in Brisbane last year was about 200 fewer than in the previous 12 months, and this year there were about 100 fewer than last year. As the council has to pay £3/3/ week- ly for hospital treatment for each diphtheria patient, and the treat- ment lasts foi- thres or four weeks. the cost to the city council has been considerable. At the present time. the cost of irnrnunising, apart from salaries, is about 1/6 for each child treated.

Nazi Harassed Jew Sees Hope In Emigration

(By The Associated Press)

BERLIN, Feb. il-Gcrman Jews are watching the progress of foreign efforts to help them emigrate as a. shipwrecked sailor scans the hor- izon for ships.

They now are allowed to leave the reich, but only after paying a substantial portion of their savings and selling most of their property, often at low prices, to Nazis. They anticipate new laws forcing them out oi busines, or severely curtail- ing their entrrpri es and activities and many of them have the one idea of salvaging as much as pos- sibie and beginning life anew in a friendlier atmosphere.

That is why they hope for the success of a British committee which went to the United States to try to plan for a fund that would liquidate whatever goods Jews may be allowed to take from Germany in lieu of money.

This scheme came from a memor- andum address-ed by Jewish lead- ers to Hjalmar Schacht. minister of eocnomics. in which they asked that Jews be permitted "to emigrate with a certain amount of money and enough goods to make up a good share of their ownings.

_ Thus Jcws would be in a better| position, their leaders say, than‘ under current restrictions, the reich would retain its precious store o'f currency, and would gain also by an increase in exports Dr. Schacht is reported to_ have given them a

noncommital answer.

Clfher-wise they have taken no the negotiations

interest in the affair. They hope, Na-

Jewish leaders have the convic- tion that new anti-semltic economic

decrees will be irsued in the fall.

when the Olympic games are out

of the way and the thousands of

money-bringing foreigners gone.

There are seemingly authentic re-

ports that these laws already have been drawn up, and are in Reich:- fuehrer Hitler's pocket.

New actions have been taken

against Jewish businessmen, not by economic authorities, but by the propaganda minister under the laws for racial purity. purge "cultural" butlnesses of Jews, Jewish movie theatre operators ‘were "liquidated" at the end of 1935, and c. like move is in progress against book deters. The dealers must turn in their membership cards in the reich's culture those cards they can not operate.

These aim to

chamber. Without

Jewish bookmen are forbidden to

sell Hitler's autobiographical “Main

Kampf," or any nazi party liter- ature.

Nora-Jewish book handlers have protested the liquidation action on the ground that it will hurt the German book trade which, it has often been indicated, is in a none too stable position.

The cinema purging forced all

Jews from the business of exhibit-

ing movie; and, as a result. no full Jew has anything to do with movies in Germany. The principle extends to a ban against showing any film that was directed by a. Jew or ‘in which Jews, or persons believed to be Jews, have roles. Hence films showing pharlie Chaplin. Paul Munl or Sylvia Sydney are not sl- lowed here.

Movie circles report that the bans are not entlrelly just, and that. 1°? example, several Americans who are mistakenly believed to have Jewish blood are blacklisted.

A Peck 0i Pepper

Many people imagine that white pepper and black are two separate and different varieties of plant spe- clz-s, but this is not the case. Black pepper is the dried immature fruit of the plant Pipe Nigrum, while white pepper is the same berry without its black outer husk.

The peppsrworts are a. small group found only in the hottest parts o. the world, but they pro- vide several useful plants-some with medicinal properties. The plant. itself may be twelve feet in height. Its berries are at first green. then red; when at this stage they are hand-picked, and left ill the sun to yield the black pepperoni-ll.

It flourishes in the valleys and on the banks of the rivers in Java, Ma- lacca, Borneo, and Sumatra, whence it is sent to Britain under the names of five varieties-Mala- bar, Penang, Sumatra, Tray, and ‘Ilellicherry.

The heavier the pepper the bat- ter quality it is. All varieties arc exceedingly similar in appearance. but the practiced merchant dif- ferenliates them by their weight- tha heaviest being Malabar, the lightest Tellisherry. -

The mixed pepper is ground by mlllstones or in a coffee-mill, care being taken lest the heat destroys some of the aromatic principles; if this occurs the pepper is known to the trade as "bumt."

Th im_ rtant constituents of pepper in a physiological sense are the two alkaloids-miperln and piperldine-and its oil. The average percentage of the alkaloids is six. and of the oil one

Pepper has frequently been found to be adulterated by means of a clever trick. Pepper dust composed of faded leaves or linseed meal, husks of mustard, ground rice, or green ground olive stones, is added to the genuine article. In all cases, however, adulteration may easily be detected by c. magnifying- glass or a miscroscope.

Ilbllowing the parliamentary ald-

dress. a circular went out from the office of the Governor-Generals secretary, addressed to the "mayors of the five cities, inviting them to submit a paper or brief setting for the reasons which might in

their opinion favor the claim of

their city to be selected by the Queen. The preparation of Ottawa's case was entrusted to Mr. Scott, and reading it today one cannot but be impressed by the succinct manner ‘in which it was phrased. Every possible argument was ud- vanced in telling language, but there is one paragraph which at this late date will amuse the his- torical student. It reads as follows:

“Consisting, as Candaa does,

of an extended line of territory lying opposite the frontier of a powerful and rapidly increasing republic, it is of the highest importnace to its protection that the seat of government should be at some point far removed from the possibility of hwtile attack’ in time of war, and of foreign influences on the minds of its people in time of peace. and so situated that its connection with the rest of the country could never be cut off or intercepted by an invading enemy, an argument forming an imuperablc objection to Toronto and Kingston, lying as they do in an exposed position immediately opposite American territory. and in the event of foreign invasion, liable as they are ,to be at any time dissevered from the other parts of the province. A similar objection may also be urged against Montreal. and with nearly equal force, for it must be conceded that Mont- real fell an easy prey to an American army during the Revolutionary War, and from the present navigability of ‘the St. Lawrence, the descent by water fromforelgn territory to that city is a task of little difficulty. and one that would require but a few hours in its accomplishment.

"Quebec, lying also on tho 5t. Lawrence, is undoubtedly a. point of great strength, but from its extreme eastern situation and exclusive population it is rather adapted to protect the ap- proaches to the provinces by sea than suited for the Capital of United Canada. and the con- nection of both Quebec and Montreal with the rest of the country might at any time be readily severed by an invading army.

"Similar objections cannot be urged against this city (Ottawa) which lies in the very heart of Canada. far removed froin the American frontier, surrounded by a loyal population composed equally of French and British origin, who have ever remained free from the stain of disaffec- tion to the Crown of England; and which is situated on the banks of the Ottawa. the largest and most beautiful river in Your Majesty's widely extended dominions, running entirely through British territory, and forming in its course the boun dary line of the upper and lower provinces."

The flvs civic memorials were to

be in the hands of the Colonial Scaetary but not content with sending them over, two of the cities, Quebec and Klgtlfltfln, must needs follow them W1 - gentlemen lclccted had a fine trip, but they accomplished nothing.

‘brief, prepared by MI. BCOF-t- Th9 d ..

Qugerfs was received in Canada about the middle of Janu- B-W. 1858. The official deopawh reads as follows: Downing Street. 31 December. 1857.

Sim-

By my despatch of the 17th April last ,1 inrornied you that Her Majesty had been graciously pleased" t0 comply Wm! m9 prayer of the address presented to her by the legislative Colm- cil and Assembly of Canada. namely, that silo would exorcise the royal prerogative by the selection of scmfi lilacs for the permanent seat of government in Canada.

The question has now been considered by Her Majesty and by her government, with that attention which its great im- portance demanded. The state- ments and arguments contained in the various memorials laid before them, in onsequerlco of your invitation to the mayors of the several cities chiefly in- terested, have been fully weighed.

I am commanded by the Queen to inform you that in the judgment of Her Majesty the city of Ottawa combines more advantages than any other place in Canada for the permanent seat of the future government of the province, and is selected by Her Majesty accordingly. ~

Governor,

The Right Hon. Sir E. Head, 1317., Canada.

Naturally the other aspirants for the honor were very much annoyed at the selection of Ottawa and importuned Parliament so success- fully that on July 8, 1858, by a. vote of 64 to 50, a resolution was passed by the assembly expressing the opinion that the city of Ottawa “ought not to be the permanent seat of government of this prov- ince."

Of the strenuous times that sass‘ it is not necessary to speak. They involved the resignation of the government, the acceptance ofofficc by Mr. George Brown; than the resignation of his minlstery, followed by the Cartier-Macdonald administration, the "double shuffle" and pmrogation with the vote standing against tho selection of Ottawa, as recorded.

The session of 1859 was equally stirring. Mr. Scott, who repres- ented Ottawa, Mr. W. F. Powell. Carleton county. and Mr. G.. B. L. Fcllowes, Russell, canvassed day and night for votes. They won over Mr. Patrick, member for South Grenville. Mr. Bell of North Iii-unit and Mr. Papineau of Ottawa county, Quebec, three representatives who up to this time had been agar-dad as "wobbly." These three added votes, counting six on a division, helped materially to gain the day. Ottawa won out by 64 to can» decision to sit in Quebec before the removal to Ottawa helping materi- allly in the final result.
