Thelr impressive European record of 31 games with only-one defeat during their two months’ tour sounds something like a picnic, but both Cliff Gainer, President of the club, and Ira Stuart, Manager, re- ported that several European teams were able to put up stiff opposition to the seasoned Canadian hockey- ists. The one victory recorded by en opposing team was in Paris, where the Edmonton outfit suffer- ed a three goal shut out by a team of Canadians resident in Paris. La- ter the Superiors returned to Paris and took their revenge on the Paris- Canadians by nine goals to one.

We were all surprised to see the huge arenas on the continent. There were sold-out ‘houses at Paris, Prague, Zurich and Berlin. The Paris rink holds 17,000, and the other three 10,000 each. In England and Scotland the rinks are not so large, holding only three or four thousand at London, Liverpool, Bir- mingham and Glasgow.

The superiors have brought back with them the St. Moritz hockey trophy, which they won by defeat- ing England and Czechoslovakia to win the annual championship held at that resort.

Up to the present the government had not considered it advisable to place Canada's re- sources behind goods shipped to Russia.

Civil Servants H Salary Bill Still Pending

(Canadian Press) OTTAWA, Feb. 3—The bl“ cx-

Thc fact that the Russian Gov- ernment controlled all foreign trade should be an advantage, Dr. Don- nelly counted, making it more sim- , pie for Canadian trade envoys to negolimc.

“Plicy are willing to barter," Dr. Donncliy slated. "Is the Cimadiazi Government willing io barter to guarahtec, in the case of oil for in- srazlcc, that when the shipment is not be placed on it?"

The lvfiuistcl" mzprcssod surprise at, the SIIIZgPSlLlOII that (lic govern- mcnL guarantee certain import flu-i tics on certain proposed shipments. It uns not done with any country, |

had consciously diverted this busi- ncss to Great Britain. Pulpwood had been shipped into Canada. from Russia in competition with the Can-

had been produced under working conditions far different from those which would be tolerated in Can- ada.

The government has decided the pulpwood producers of Canada should not have to face such com- petition. The same was true of lum- ber and furs, although the restric- tions regarding the lattcr commo- dity had bcen modified.

“The main object behind Russian exports is to obtain foreign credit,’ said Mr. Stevens, "notion adequate 'retum on their effort or a. profit for the producers." He had stood on a dock in Bristol. England, in 1930 when Canada was trying to ship wheat to Great Britain.

"We in England at that time saw ships of seven, eight and nine thous- and tons, loaded with unsold Rus- sian grain, on consignment tie up at the British docks. I “stood on the Bristol dock and saw a 7,000 ton steamer loaded with Russian grain arrive. It. was shipped on c- ,, ment to a broker who told me he was ordered to sell for whatever he could get.

"That day the Liverpool wheat market broke six cents a bushel and the market has never recovered from the blow," Mr. Stevens de- clared.

adian product and, as with coal, it,

lr.;'.:l of Canadian cattle for Russian oil.

Mr. Stevens said that according to G. G. Serkaws own written state- ment there was $8,000,000 to be paid by Russia for the cattle. It was clear that the proposcrs of the scheme did not expect to get the Russian Government to pay for this cattle in full initll June, 1935 and payments of the $8,000,000 were to be in progressive payments. The Dominion Government was asked to accept Russian seven per cent bonds payable in June, i935 for payments outstanding‘ the cattle were to be shipped to Russia before November next which would mean that the total liability- would be incurred by

ial intimation that Russia proposed buying from Canada. Last year Canada sold Russia 3,000,000 bushels of wheat largely for seed purposes. There was no reason to believe that country was at present in the mar- ket for wheat.

Col. Thomas Cantley, (Cons, Pic- tou). asked Dr. Donnclly what rea- son he had to believe Russia want- ed to buy from Canada.

"None," replied Dr. Donnelly, "I said, ‘if’ they wanted to buy." William Irvine (U. P. A. Wetaski- win) enquired what rcnson then could be for the government not supporting or sanctioning the pro- posal for the exchange of 100,000

November; a guarantee should be

against any possible breach of agree it by the Russian Govem- ment. ‘Ilicsr were matters which

the Dominion Government was not warranted in doing, Mr. Stevens said. _

Then thcrc was the question of exchange. Petrol. iuhrlcatin! oil and Russian anthracite were to be sent to Canada in roinection with the cattle barter. He had already made it clear. Mr. Stevens, contin- ued, that, the Dominion Government did not believe it was advisable to sacrifice the British coal market in Canada to Russia. '

MANCHESTER, Eng, Feb. 3.- ? Many people think that the coldest spots on earth would be at. the North and South Poles, according to |a writer in The Manchester Guard- i i fan, but this is not so, for the cold- i ‘est spot in the Northern Hemis- ‘ ,phere is really in Siberia. . l This is situated west of Verkhoy- i iansk, about 200 miles inland from i ithe Lena River.

‘ This region has l: the lowest mean annual tempera- i ture of any place in which records , have been taken. It can boast of a i record of 90 degrees F. below zero, -, jor 112 degrees of frost! Its usual Tminimum temperature during Janu- j ary is not above 60 degrees F. Tem- perature records for the southern polar regions are not complete, but it is considered that the coldest area is in the highlands on the Antarc- tic Contlnent, some distance from the South Pole.

The reasons for this curious state of affairs arc to be found in the fact that water, which, although coated with ice, is present round about the North Pole, has a warm- ing effect. A region distant from the sea in Siberia thus experiences a greater degree of cold. Altitude also affects temperature, and so it is the elevated lands in the Alltflrfi- tic region that have a lLlWPl‘ tem- perature than the Soutl: l" ~ it- self.
