Unusual Significance

the manoeuvres which are to be
“as serious" as peacetime circum-
stanods will permit,
Apart from its implications, some
said the natlonallzation of silver
lacked unusual significance. The
authority to take over the metal
was granted in the act passed by
the lnst Congrress, It had been pre-
dictedi on several occasions.
Then too, the supply which the
treasury will acquire is estimated
at between 150,000,000 and 200,000-
000 ounces. The treasury will imue
notes amounting only to the money
paid out for the stocks. Conse-
quently, additional currency to be
issued ,wilL.he_smnll, comparatively
speaking. . ' '
But Thomas interpreted the act-
ion to mean that silver is “at last
primary money." Nationallzation
he added, could bring only the
"overthrow of the world wide gold
bloc." _
He confidently predicted an in-
ternational monetary agreement
affecting both precious metals and
called off a speaking tour he had
arranged to urge additional cur-
rency inflation.
Refuse Comment
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morllenthau made no comment on
the reasons for the natlonallzation.
merely saying: "I'm relieved that
its all over." He said nothing when
toldi that Thomas charged that the
recent sharp rise in the price of
silver showed there had been a
"leak" as to the treasury's inten-
tion.
It was pointed out, however, that
silver is approaching a world price
of 50 cents an ounce and that
under the silver purchase act the
price the (iovemment can pay for
domestic supplies is a maximum of
50 Ol cents.
Some observers said continued
treasury buying to carry out thi
manciato of the la\v, which speci-
fied that the supply of silver
maintained as a currency base
should; be one-third that of gold
might force the world price above
50 cents, In that event, it was as-
serted. there would be a teiu;~i~.-

C.P.R. President
Greatly Pleased
With Outlook Fol-
lo wi n g Inspection
Tour.
(C. P. By Gua.rdlan's Special Wire)
MONTREAL, Aug. 8. _ Railway
building is by no means at the end
in Canada, E. W. Beatty, K.C.,
chairman and president of the Carl-
adlan Pacific Railway, stated tonight
following an extended inspection
trip through Western Ontario.
“Completion of our development
will probably mean construction of
more railway mileage to outlying
districts as their prospects and de-
velopment warrant. Under ordinary
circumstances money would be sup-
plied when required oy borrowing.
Mr. Beatty stated he believed that
enough money “could be saved out
of unification" of the railways of
Canada “to enable cost to be incur-
red with little or no borrowing; and
I believe that as a young country,
safeguardixig its own future, we
should make these economies and
protect to that extent our financial
and railway requirements."
Although Canada was 67 years of-
ape as a Dominion "we are a. long
way from completing our develop-
ment stage," Mr. Beatty said. "We
have got to build more railways,"
mineral development in the far
north, extensions of discoveries oi
arable land in the north, the painful
experiences in certain southern dis-
trlcts-“all these mean that we from
a transportation standpoint will pro-
vide, either by a private company,
or by the government, such facilities
as the logical and legitimate devel-
opment of these sections of the coun-
try demands. I do not see how we
can avoid it_”
Mr. Beatty egpresed the view that
the Imperial agreements had been of
substantial advantage to Canada.
His Western Ontario tour, follow-
ing closely upon a journey through
the Maritime Provinces, had con-
firmed Mr. Beatty's general impres-
sions regarding improved business
conditions.
In the Maritimes “I found the
some general improvement which is
certainly not artificially stimulated-
a far better travel situation than we
have had for years, both on trains
and in hotels and on steamships.
The Maritimes, of course, are getting
the benefit of that."
Of conditions generally, he said:
“The traffic indicates a general im-
provement except in grain, and we
will not have complete prosperity in
Canada until agriculture is prosper-
ous; we never have and I do not
thing we will again. But notwith-
standing the uncertainty about the
crop the general business of the
country has been maintained at a
higher level in the past year, and
fairly continuously."
In the interview Mr. Beatty dealt
at length with the question of unif-
ication of railways, of which he is ia
leading proponent.

When the black-winged biplane

Heston clubhouse rushed out in

they leamed who the filers were.

decided to land. I
“We are glad to be here," they
told spectators, who showered con-

Controls Jammed
Unexpected difficulties of com-
battlng fog, adverse wind and rain
squalls over the ocean had made
it necessary for Ayllng and Rold
to use large quantities of gasoline.
In addition. the controls of the
plane jammed several times, and
ahead the weather was becoming'
increasingly unfavorable.
When they found themselves
over Ragland the fliers made a
hasty calculation and concluded
they did not have enough fuel
aboard to break the long distance
record of 5,657.6 miles. The record
out of their grasp, they decided to
land at London. ,
They circled over Hendon and
Stag Lane airports, on the north
side of London, nad then flew over
to Heston aerodrorne.
Asked why they chose to land at
Heston, Reid jokingly replied, “Wei
understood the beer was best here."
After a phone call to Reid's`
mother, Lady Reid, and a bite to’
eat, the two tested the controls and
set out for Hatfield, making the
short hop safely to the de Havilland
Aircraft Company's aerodmme'
there. i

Congratu1ate_
Air Heroes.
LONDON, Aug. 9. - Jimmy
Mollison, famed for his two east-
west trans-Atlantic flights, uf-
fered congratulations today to _
James Ayling and Leonard Reid -1
for their flight from Wasaga _
Beach, Ont., to London. Mol- =
lison piloted the original “Sea-
farer” to Pennfield Ridge, N.B.,
and later the “Seafater II" to _
Bridgeport, Conn. _
Mollison and his wife. Amy.
Johnson, attempted a Wasaga-
Baghdad flight last year in “Sea-
farer II,” but cracked up on the
take-off. They were not, hurt.
Since the plane has been rebuilt,
with greater engine power, and
renamed "The Trail of the Cari-
bon."
"1 want immediately to con-
gratulate these airmen on behalf
of my wife and myself on their
splendid achievement," said Mol-
lison today. "It is interesting to _
think the old ‘seafarer should
have been successful in twice
crossing the Atlantic. I am de-
lighted to .know the plane has
completed the circuit.
