WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.- (A.P.) -Professor Auguste Piccard said to- day that men may fly to other planets in rocket planes in the fu- ture but they will not be able to come back. . It would take 20 tons of explo- sives to shoot of the earth’sSHU sives to shoot a one-ton rocket kpplane away from the “pull” of the -earth's gravitation and get it well started on its way to another plan- et, and 10 more tons would be need- sd to act as a braking force when the rocket returned to earth. Carry- ing so much weight would be im- practicable for rocket planes, he said. Study of the cosmic rays, for which Professor Plccard made his two famous balocn flights into the itratosphere and for which he may guide a third flight, undertaken by other scientists, near Hudson Bay, may help unlock tremendous energy, in atoms, however, he explained, and use of this energy might over- come the difficulties of sending rocket planes on "round trips” to other planets, There is no limit to the heights which rocket planes may reach above the earth, Professor Piccard said, but predicted balloons and aeroplanes will not rise much fur- ther than the 10-mile height he reached last summer, owing to prac- tical difficulties of construction, Professor Piccard and his brother talked for nearly 10 minutes with President Herbert Hoover shortly after noon, but neither would com- ment upon their conference. An attache of the Swiss Legation ex- plained that the'Professor was tir- ed and wished to retum to his rooms and test as quickly as poss- ible. ~ L ady L em ie ax* Seriously Ill (Canadian Press) QUEBEC, Jan. 13-The illness of Lady Lemieux, wife of Sir Fran- cols Lemieux, Chief Justice of the Superior Court, took a turn for the worse tonight and grave fears were held that she would not survive until tomorrow moming. §\'ANNoUNcEMENTs`. comme EVENTS, MEETINGS, ETC "Skate at Mt.

Displacing Belgium and the Argentine the Dominion re- sumed the position occupied pre- vious to the unsettled conditions of the last three years. Canada held seventh position ln. 1931 andsixtli in 1930. 'Increased exports of wheat were largciy responsible for the improve- ‘ ment in the position of the Domin- ion among exporting. countries. In 1032 Canada exported 228,219,- 755 bushels of wheat as compared with 104,825,612 bushels in 1931 and despite lower prices increased the monetary value of her wheat ex- ports by $10,500,000 to $128,385,733.

City of Cal- gary bonds by spreading certain propaganda was made today by Mayor Andy Davison. He said it was in retaliation for Calgary's re- fusal to pay $300,000 exchange rates on $2,135,000 in debentures, matur- ing in New York. ' The Mayor made the statement over long distance telephone from Edmonton where he was conferring with Prcmicrdohn Brownlee on Calgary`s fiancial tangle, arising over the exchange dispute and cf- forts, so far unsuccessful, to ob- tain a $750,000 line of credit from the Bank of Montreal to carry on civic departments. Reports had becn rcceivcd, His Worship said, that Edmonton bonds were being quoted at a. higher price than Calgary bonds. I-le declared there was no reason for such ac- tion. In explanation he pointed out the gross funded debt of Edmonton was $9,000,000 in excess of Calgary’s and that the net funded debt of Edmonton was $16,000,000 compar.. ed with $8,000,000 for Calgary. "It looks as if the bond men and financial interests want to spank us because yvc have been naughty," he added. Protest- Against Importation Of N. Z.
