The number of people at work in Great Britain now was mes quarters of a million greater mm before the war, or a total ex- pension greater than that of Can- gdn. "We have made a total great- q- progress in the last 14 years than you have," Mr. Williams said. It was true that Great Britain also had a greater volume of unemploy- ment. That too was three quarters of a million greater than in 1914. "We relieve the burden," Wil- mms proceeded.

It is no more s form oi charity than when you business men pay a fire insurance premium and the company pays you insurance if you have a fire.

And the record of the savings bank oi the co-operative societies was that never before had there been such evidence of thrift. Mr. Williams urged further dev- clopment of trade between Great Britain and Canada. Trade be- tween Canada. and the U. S. was dollar for dollar; Great Britain bought from Canada to the amount of two and a half dollars for every dollar's worth she sold to Canada. “We would like to get a little of that American trade." Mr. Williams add- ed. He pointed out that Great Brit- ain gave extensive tariii preferenc- es today and that under the Merch- andise Marks Act, the sale of Em- pire goods was stimulated. The film industry in Great Britain had had the most mazlng revival since the quota was placed on films. "We don't see why American customs and habits should be advertised through the screen," Mr. Williams said. Mr. Williams compared results of the census of production taken in Great Britain and Canada in i924. At that time, the population in Great Britain was roughly five times that of Canada. Figures for Great Britain were not yet final. but if estimates were correct they would show that the average income per head in the two countries was about the same. They would show that 45 per cent. of the total population of Great Britain worked for a living in Canada. In other words, nine per- cent more people worked for a liv- ing in Great Britain than in Can- ada: with fifty percent more women working for a living. Long Dis.

Aug. 29.— The insane jealousy of a man whose estranged wife was attentive to another man stood today as the motive for the shooting (o death of four men and wounding of a fifth here last night. The police held Percy T. Barnes, railroad employee, as the slayer, and L. R. Coburn, whom Barnes named as an alleged accomplice. The men who fell before the pis- tol of the slayer during a frenzied two hour period of shooting were: Charles O.

The wounded man was M. H. Larkan, President of a Sacramento Transportation Co. He encountered the slayer on a highway leading out oi the city and was shot when he played the part- of the Good Samar- itan. and took Klein. mortally wounded, toward a hospital.

Aug. 29. -— With communication being re-established with the towns and villages isolated by the severe electrical and wind storms that swept the province of Quebec yesterday, reports had been received tonight of three deaths and enormous property damage. The EI€&'\ st havoc was wrought in the farming districts. Many barns were struck by lightning and in the including cattle and feed were des- troyed. Roofs of residences were blown off while trees were uprooted and telephone and telegraph poles felled. The storm which passed in eight minutes at St. Zenon. 75 miles dir- ectly north of Montreal killed three children. injured four other persons and did damage of $100,000 in that locality alone. The wind demolish- ed iour homes and twelve barns. The three victims were Jerome Gouin, four years old; Annette, three years old and Anatole, six months old. They were the child- ren of Henri Gouin, a farmer of the district. The father and mother who were injured, were at work in the fields and the three children were playing in the house when the storm struck the village. The wind lifted the house of‘! its foundations and carried it across the fields 240 feet away where it landed and fell into splinters. Rescuers later found the bodies of the three chil- dren.

GENEVA, Aug. 29.—The essence of the provisional naval agreement between France and Great Britain is in the opinion of French circles, expressed to the Associated Press today, that an attempt should be made to roach an international ag- reement limiting the construction of large cruisers and large submar- ines, but that for the moment lim- itation of smaller units should not be attempted. '9'“ In thus summarizing the accord French circles denied catagorically that the agreement contains any secret clauses and they joined Brit- ish quarters in characterizing as untrue reports that it provides for associated British and French fieets. ' \ Great Britain and Franco still await replies from the United Stat- es, Italy and Japan before publish- ing the text, and‘ Netherlands Min- ister to France and President of the Preparatory Disarmament Commis- sion, is awaiting the results of cor- respondcncc between the five naval powers involved before deciding up- on the date oi the next meeting of the u mission. In British quarters it was empha- sized that there ls nothing final in the accord with Franco. It was ex- plained that the areement was placed before the other naval pow- ers in the hope that it would be ac- cepted as the basis -of a discussion by the Dias. ament Commission and assuming that it is eventually accepted by the commission, can only go forward as a recommendat- ion for the consideration of a later international conference. Under the Franco-British tentat- ive accord only cruisers of 8,500 tons and over and submarines over 600 tons would bc subject to limitation.

Miss Bina West, President and Founder, has always btressed, through the 39 years of the Society's life, ideals oi health. "I hops to be working when I am‘ '70." she said. "Every day I accom- plish more because I have learned to do my work more easily from experience, and I can relax com- pletely for a few moments each day." This woman who has spent her liie dealing with her own sex in business relations. has found them most l asonable and most diplo- matic. There isno truth in the statement that women cannot work harmoniously with their own sex. Miss West declares. The attitude which marks all business relations as successful should be used with women as well as with men and that is "be impersonal."
