HALIFAX, N. 5., Jan. 23.—'1‘he public accounts to be presented at the forthcoming session of the Nova Scotia Legislature will show a defic- it of $488,280.05 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1930, said a. statement issued this afternoon by Hcn, John Doull, Provincial Treas- urer.

In his estimates for 1930, Hon. E. N. Rhodes, former Premier and Pro- vlnclalSecretary, forecast n. deficit of $401,704.82. The increase over the estimate, said Hon. Mr. Doull, was due to differences between the estim- ate of revenue and. the estimate of expnditure in a number of depart- ments. While revenue credited to the highways department was $40,000 greater thon__the estimate and the Provincial Secretary's department gathered $100,000 more than antic- ipated, coal royalties reflected the decrease in sales cf coal and revenue to be credited the Department of Public Works and Mines, consequent- ly fell of! by almost $100,000. The estimate for a revenue of 8300.000 from the new liquor control act had bet-ll based on the assumption that the Government stores would be in operation by the first of’ July, 1030,

Adam ’s Fall Debatecl By “C. K.”And D a r r o“ w

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.—In a three hour verbal whirlwind of miracles, Old Testament, religious declines, fundamentals, atoms and allied sub- jects, Gilbert K. Chesterton, famous English writer, met and in the op- inion of the audience, defeated Clar- ence Darrow, rapier-tonguedatheis- tic. American lawyer, debating “Re- liglon," yesterday in Mecca. Temple.

Adam and Eve and the fall of man come in for some lively discussion. Darrow derided them openly and con tinuously. Chesterton branded the attack as “an argument with a fun- damentalist maiden aunt," and claim ed to be neither a fundamentalist not a maiden aunt.

The lawyer expressed wonderment that miracles, such as are recounted in the Bible, do not occur nowadays. Chesterton said that they do. He suggested that Darrow go to Lourdes. Darrow stated that the Catholic church stood opposed to the spread of knowledge throughout the cent- uries. ~ Darrow claimed that belief in sup- ernaturalism dis‘ becoming less and less and that the time would come when no one would believe in Christ- lanity. Chesterton declared that the world will go back to religion and that man cannot get along without it. And the crowd, by a vote of 2,359 to 1,022 voiced its agreement with Chesterton.

Re vis e d Bo o k of Common Prayer Not Sanctioned

(By Thomas T. Champion, Canadian Press Staff Correspondent)

LONDON, Jan., 23—T'hc action of the Archblshops in sanctioning and directing the use in the Church of England of the revised book of eom- ' mon prayer, “is neither constitution- ‘ al nor legal," stated sir Leslie Scott, K.O. and Wilfred Lewis, before whom the case was laid by thelNatlonal Church League. Sir Leslie Scott is a former Solicitor General and Mr. Lewis ls also an outstanding legal authority. ‘rhey had been asked by the League for on opinion on the legal aspects of the new prayer book, which has been twice rejected in Parliament. They also declared to- day that the action of the Upper Home of convocation of Canterbury, in passing the Archbishop of Canter- bury’: resolution of July, i929, was unconstitutional, ultra vires, having no legal operation, and a breach of the statutory duties imposed by law upon the clergy of the Church of England.

This resolution, smnsorcd by the llto Imd Davidson was carried by twenty three votes lo four and auth- orised the use of the 192a prayer- book. Itlwcquently the Archbishop permitted the use of some of the fflml and coders of service in th:
