FARM CHAT.v . —« * ."
I SOLDIER SETTLEMENT.' Some criticism has been levelled atthe Government in regard to the pur-chase of land for settlement by dis-charged soldiers. An official of the Re-:turned Soldiers' Association instanceda case of a Wairarapa estate. Probably;the Land Purchase Commissioners in the jWellington Land District have indulgedjIn some of the most expensivechases of land in the Dominion. Quitea number of the blocks offered byseveral of the northern boardsOeen considerably beyond the capitalpossessed by the average returned sol-dier. The amount of capital neces-sary to go into some of the blocksmarketed would not stamp them aspoor 'men and it is strange that suchmen ,are not encouraged to go on theopen market and acquire farms in theordinary way. The amount of capitalnecessary to take over both stock andsection, even with a Government ad-vance, in some of the northern settle-ments, has been such that allbut moder-ately! wealthy discharged soldiers had totie eliminated. Sections have beenplaced upon the market at prices whichInvolved a capital outlay of sums bor-aerin|g upon five figures. Expenditureof such large sums as these to settleone man on the land are unfair to thevery large number of landless appli-cants' who contest every ballot. TheGovernment would be well advised tomake the conditions pertaining to thesettlement of bush" and similar unde- jveloped Crown lands more attractive toreturned men. The spending of largemini* in the vicinity of £IO,OOO in .orderto settle Individuals is hardly justifiable.
Unusual Weather.The- succession of warm days has had
the effect of promoting a most unusualprinter growth. Recent meteorological,conditions have been reminiscent of■early'summer and the .grass and winteraown'erops have shot ahead accordingly.The pessimists are averring "that it.■will .have to be paid for later on."Certainly the weather is unseasonableand ean hardly be expected to continue
; for any length of time, but the genialdays'will be welcomed by both agrieul-
i torists; : and stoekowners. The lowerliving lands have been put in fine con-
i.iition for working and the fresh bitefjiven!stock does not come amiss. It isnot Uncommon for the New Zealandseason''to follow the summer in the
.Old .Country. English weather condi-j tions from a farming point of viewIvrere- particularly favourable in thejspring and -early summer.
New Dairying Venture.A public meeting was held on Thurs-
day in the Methven A. and P. Associa-tion's rooms for the purpose of form-ing a Co-operative Dairy Co. in the dis-trfeti: There was a large attendanceand the proposal received a good re-ception. It was decided to go on withthe formation of the company, to becalled the Mount Hutt Co-operativeDairy Co., Ltd, The capital of the com-pany was fixed at 10,000 shares of £1each, allotment to be proceeded withwhen 5000 shares were subsidised.Messrs Jas. Carr, J. McAnulty, R.■Wightman, D. Buckley and P. Doherty•were elected provisional directors. The
, directors were empowered to proceed) with the formation of the company, to| make arrangements for the purchase of
a site and to call tenders for the erec-tion of the neeessary buildings. Aguarantee of 800 cows has been receivedand it is expected that this numberwill be increased to 1000. All thing*considered, the future looks rosy for the
. Tew company and it is hoped to havej everything ready for the coming sea-i »on.j :
*- Stock Jottings.
j . Tbe main freezing works _in Canter--1 bnry are to close a week hence. The
season has been somewhat unusually; long drawn out, due to storage prob-j lerns and to the large numbers of stock
j available. Taken all round the season, lias been a particularly favourable one
from a grazier's point of view. A good! rainfall in the summer ensured fine'■■ turnip and rape crops, and an excellentj autunrn growth, with the result thatmost-farms turned off more than the
. usual number of fat stock. The prob-! abilities are that fat stock will be dearin the early spring, but the consumeris protected against unduly high pricesby the large stocks of good frozenmutton and lamb in store in the Do-minion. Butchers have the right to go
i to the stores and obtain their suppliesat the schedule rates.
The statement by Sir A. H. Goldfinch,Director of Raw Materials at Home, is aparticularly interesting one. He states adownward movement of prices is begin-ning to take effect, but only a diversionof the public demand from the finestwools can materially reduce the price ofthe finest wools, since these have latelybeen consumed faster than they aregrown. It may be confidently main-tained that the prices fixed in the woolcontracts were fair and reasonable whenthey were made, and the arrangements
; for cash payment, irrespective of ship-ping facilities were au immense benefit\o Australia. Nobody could have fore-Been the extraordinary boom in merinowool, and it is extremely doubtful if
a the farmer would have got the benefit' of it if the contracts had not existed.
To March 31, 1919, the profit on NewZealand wool and sheepskins is £2,689,-920 and under the profit-sharing ar-rangement with the Imperial Govern-ment half of this sum is due to theDominion woolgrowers. At the samedate stocks of New Zealand wool andsheepskins valued at £2,374,450 werebeld. *
From the tone of the store sheepmarkets during the week, farmers arefar from the opinion that the bottomlas dropped out of the frozen meat
industry with the ceasing of the com-innideer. All classes of store sheeprose* sharply at Addington on Wednes-day. A line of fair mixed-sex hoggets—probably 30 per cent, ewes—made26/6, and, generally, prices were in thevicinity of 3/- per head better thanat the preceding sale.
All classes of fat stock boomed mild-ly in price on Wednesday. Beef roseabout 30/- per head, and much of thebotter-class ox beef must have cost thebutchers £2 17/6 per 1001b. The bestI price for a steer was £37 10/-, for one'sold on account of the Leslie RillsEstate.
Mutton sold briskly at Addington, a< draft of wethers, sold on account MrG. Fulton, Rotherham, making up to59/6. The best prices induced;—Wethers: G. Fulton (Kaiapoi), 50 52/6to 59/6; J. -J. Earl (Orari), 57 46/- to58/6; W. A. Lambie (Kyle), 108 49/-to 57/6; Riccarton Estate, 20 54/3 to56/-. Ewes: G. G. Holmes (Knocklynn),22 40/- to 56/3; Chas. Rudd (Green-
Idale), 63 45/1 to 50/9.Some big figures have been paid for
merino rams by New Zealand pastoral-ists at the July sheep sales. Mr N.Rutherford paid 850gs for a ram, andquite a number of others were boughtat Over lOOgs. Mr- C. H. Ensor soldCorriedales at prices up to 50gs.
“ Meat Prices.A cable from L. C. Ballantine and
Co., London, has been received byMessrs Arlow and Co., as 'follows:—“Mutton, lamb, beef. Ministry ofFood allotment will probably be made20 per cent, on account of shippers.”This is interpreted as meaning that theImperial Government will allow 20 percent, of the new season’s meat to gowith cargoes of its own meat at presentawaiting shipment in New Zealand. Thesame firm reports having already sold toLondon prime Canterbury lamb at lOd,c.i.f.e., London, equal to 74d per lb,free on board in New Zealand. TheImperial Government requisition pricefor specially prime Canterbury lambswas 6}d. Offers- received from Londonfor prime wether mutton are sd, c.i.f.e.Vthat is 2d per lb f.o.b. New Zealandbeef, prime ox, 7Jd, c.i.f.e., equal to4Jd if.o.b., and prime cow 64d c.i.f.e,,or 4d per lb f.o.b. These prices , arebelow those-paid by the British Go-vernment. for meat under requisition,which were 53d for prime first-qualitywethers, 5d for prime ox beef, and 4}dfor prime cow beef.
The same firm advises that for earlyshipment of prime lamb to New Yorkthey could have obtained 7d per lbf.0.b., and for a small quantity of primewether mutton 5d per lb feo.b., or 3djper lb better than' for London. It ishoped in the trade that New Yorkcurrent prices will stiffen those formutton in Great Britain.'
The quantity of meat in store in NewZealand for which ,no space has beenallotted in overseas steamers, as onJune 30, is equivalent to 6.379,764 car-cases of- 601b of meat. The quantityshipped through ’the Imperial SuppliesDepartment is already 2,992,365 quar-ters of beef, 13,060,249 carcases mutton,and 14,712,487 carcases lamb. For thewhole purchase of meat from March 3,1915, to June 30, 1920, the ImperialSupplies Department has paid out£48,719,056. The heaviest shipmentsfrom the various ports in the Dominionduring the whole period of the Govern-ment purchases have been; Beef, 598,782quarters from Wellington; mutton,3,627,571 carcases from Wellington;and lamb, 4,127,234 from Lyttelton.The total exports from the two islandshave been as follow:—

NEW STOCKS OF SUGAR.EXPECTED NEXT WEE*.
EFFECT ON CONFECTIONERYPRICES.
Tt is expected that the Monowai,I which leaves Auckland to-day, willbring sugar to Lyttelton. This will bethe first consignment since the rise wasannounced, and will be retailed at 6dper lb. Stocks now being sold wereacquired at the old figure, and as faras can be gathered, are mainly beingsold retail at 3Jd to 3Jd per lb. Thenew price will therefore probably comeinto operation next week.
So far distributors have not beenofficially advised as to the new prices,or as to arrangements thereunder. Thejfirms acting as agents for the Colonial;Sugar Co., Ltd., Have not even beeninformed whether they are to sell on aprofit basis, or on commission.
Retailers of confectionery are con-cerned as to the effect of the rise ofsugar on their business. Some linesconsist almost solely of sugar, whichhas advanced 100 per cent. It is.in-evitable, therefore, that manufacturerswill issue new price lists showing bigincreases. As juveniles are sucfy largeconsumers of sugar-sweets, the risesshould "hit" them, aVnd consumptionis expected tp fall off. Under such cir-cumstances rftailers seen feel that theywill have to increase the margin ofprofit in respect to all types Of con-fectionery.

ROSES.Many professional gardeners, as
V(rell as amateurs, when pruningroses in beds or borders, cut them
. flown as near as possible to theground. This is often done quite ir-respective of the type of rose or itsnatural habit. In many cases, the
!»runer is under the impression thatt is the only way to get large andtne flowers. The practice cameargely into vogue with the advent
of rose shows, when the principallarge flowering roses were of thehybrid perpetual race, many of theVarieties being of weakly habit ofgrowth, with thin and flimsyDetailed flowers. The object of thishard pruning was to concentrate theenergy of the plant into producingfhree or four flowers of extra fine<pjality.
Practically all those old varietieshave gone quite out of cultivation,pr are only found in gardens wherethe owner has a hobby of growingas many varieties as lie can gathertogether, or in public gardens. ItIs rather a question whether it isaltogether wise" that they should beirown in public gardens, as at timesthey flower freely- and well, butSenerally over a "short season, and
n amateur who is not up in rosevarieties is very liable to make anote of the name for planting in hisfarden, to the exclusion of much
etter garden varieties. I have ad-vocated in these the rose
Seasons came round, a more rationalorm of pruning. Why should a
rose plant that in two or threeyears can be grown into a hand-some bush, capable of bearing from£0 to 100 or more fine flowers, becut down to a stump annually?Even, if the rose grower is an ex-hibitor it is not at all necessaryWith the majority of varieties. Thecultivation of the rose now, and thecultivation of the rose even 30 yearsago, that is, for the production offlowers over as long a period aspossible, is quite a different proposi-tion. Most varieties of the modernhybrid tea rose will bloom fromearly summer to well - into thevvinter, as long as they are encour-aged to grow into well-branchedhushes and are treated in a liberalmanner. Our climate is excellentlySuited for this form of rose gro\v-ing. It is not af all common to haverose, plants grown on the cut-hard{principle cut down badly by latepring frosts, but it is very rare to
Bee a large rose bush some threeyr four feet high damaged, as thebead is up above the region of the■hardest frost—the ground level.
I was very pleased, when lookingover the 1920 "National RoseSociety's Year Book" to see a lead-
[By "AOTEA."]ing rose grower, and one who writeslargely for the gardening papersover the signature of "Danecroft"advocating the same principle. Hisremarks are so to the point that theyare worth quoting:—*l think the so-called 'expert' may often learnsomething from the novice or un-skilled amateur. I have frequentlyseen in cottagers' gardens, and inthose of quite ordinary amateurs,rose bushes of certain kinds thathave astonished me, and that havecaused one to reflect. Only recentlyI was invited to inspect the rosesgrowing in a small villa garden thatwere tended by a young lady clerk,who confessed utter ignorance asregards rose culture; and yet thereI found a plant of that grand roseMine Leon Pain standing some 4fthigh, a picture of robust vigour, soutterly unlike what we are accus-tomed to see in gardens where thestrictest rules of modern pruninghave been carried out. Are we notall somewhat to' blame in advisingsevere pruning for out gardenroses?"
I should like some of our membersto see the huge bushes in the RevrMr Burnside's garden. Some areveritable shrubs. Here we may seeMelanie Soupert, Betty, CarolineTestout, Margaret, Mrs Hubert Tay-lor, W. R. Smith, theany. many others, from 4Tt to 6fthigh, and Hugh Dickson and FrauKarl Druschki much higher thanthis; arid the blooms produced areall up to exhibition standard. Howvastlv different from the teaching ofsome' of our experts, who tell us, asthe Rev. Foster Melliar does in his"Book of the Rose," that when some-one visited his garden after pruningtime they could see nothing butstumps. Supposing our object is toexhibit show blooms, why should nota big plant produce good showblooms if nourished according to itsvigour as one that is mutilated bar-barously every year? The instanceI have given of Mr Burnside's rosesproclaims that this may be done.
Three Good Climbing Roses.Fortune's Yellow rose is one of
the earliest roses to bloom, so shouldbe given a warm, sheltered position.The flowers are of good size, butnot very full. The colours are abeautiful blend of yellow, orange andcrimson, sometimes with quite aviolet shade. It is very free flower-ing in a suitable position, but hasonly one season of flowering.
La Marque is one of the whitest ofwhite roses. It is a good free grow-ing variety, with pleasing lightgreen foliage, and is not apt to getbare at the base of the branches.It flowers freely yi early summer,and generally has a continuation offlowers for some time.
Lady Waterlow.—The two preced-ing varieties have held a place ingardens for a very long time, butLady Waterlow is of more.recent in-troduction, being first sent out in1903. It is a strong, robust grower,having very fine foliage, and is vervconstant in flowering. The flowersare large, fairly full, with petals ofgreat substance. It is a beautifulrose with exquisite shadings ofcream, pink and carmine. It is alsoone of the best varieties for a stand-ard.
New Decorative Roses.In the special audit (N.R.S.) of thenewer decorative rose, the firstseven were placed as follow?1, Golden Emblem, H.T.; 2 K. of
K., H.T.; 3, Mrs Wemyss Quin,Pernetiana; 4, Red Letter Day, H.T.;5, Isobel, single; 6, Margaret DicksonHamil, H.T.; 7, The Queen Alexan-dra Rose, Pernetiana.
THE POULTRY INDUSTRY.HATCH EARLY.
[Edited by J. B. Merrett.]Early hatched pullets make the best
winter layers. Late hatched pullets donot, as a rule, lay in the winter. Eggsat this season are the profit-makers,therefore plan to--have all chickshatched early. A few weeks' differ-ence in the date of hatching may meanthe difference between good profit anda loss. Do not breed from any birdswhich are not perfectly healthy andvigorous. Use only high producers andmales, from high producers. Rememberthat egg production is inherited, andthat the male is more than half theflock. Recent investigations seem toshow that it is the male bird that trans-mits the egg-producing powers to hisdaughters, and the female transmitsjit to her sons, therefore it is important
| that the male be from a high egg-layingstrain. The best results will be by the|i|se of one or two-year-old hens as
I breeders, for as a rule they do not lay|heaviry during the winter months andtheir eggs will hatch a larger percent-age of good, healthy chickp. Goodresults can be obtained from pullets ifthey were early hatched and maturedearly, and have every indication ofbeing good producers, but the chancefor selection is not so great as is thecase with old hens.
Eggs intended for hatching mustreceive good care while being kept. 'ltis not advisable to hold eggs for morethan three weeks, the ,sooner they are
| set the better the hatch wilf be.. Select' eggs for hatching that are even and uni-' form in size and shape. Discard allabnormal eggs, extremely large or small,and odd shaped. Select eggs with afirm, even shell. Already some breeders
; are mating up, but we think July earlyenough for any breed, with an assur-ance of better fertility.
Hawkesbury College Averages.For the two months ended May 31 the
*veragW"hi the light- breeds section atthe Hawkesbury College egg-laying testwere 122 per pen of six birds, against142 in the previous competition, and inthe heavy section,l47 against 155 inlast year's test. The standard sectionshave suffered heavily through one penin each not having commenced, but withthe long spell they may go strong forfhe ensuing period. ■ The light breedsfor the two months have averaged but96 against 147, and the heavies 105,last year's average being 139.

WEST COAST NOTES.CHARLESTON COAL.
"~
From Our Own Corresvondeni.GREYMOUTH, July 8.
The prospectus has been issued of theWestport-Charleston Coal Quarries andTimber Co., Ltd., a new company witha capital of £125,000, which proposes'todevelop the coal resources at Charleston.The company is to acquire a coal areaof 262 acres, and also to securemonths' option over the timber businessof Messrs Bowater and Bryan as agoing concern, the valuation of whichis in the neighbourhood of £12.000.
The expectations of the company arefor an annual output of 100,000 tonsof coal, which could be doubled if/thedemand should require it. A peculiarityof this coal district is that the coal isfound in open quarries, the super-imposed soil to be sluicedaway. The coal can therefore be ob-tained more economically\tha-n in theordinary way, and it is estimated 4katit will pay at 10/6 per ton f.o.b. West-port. The necessary railway for con-veyance of the coal is estimated tocost £62,500. In addition to the coal,the company's option covers a largearea of good timber country, which,when cleared, will be available for agri-cultural and pastoral purposes.
West Coast Timber.Timber to the value of £10,463 was
exported from Greymouth during theweek ended July 6. This representsalmost one-third *of the whole exportof the Dominion, which, inclusive of theWest Coast, was valued at £32,766. Onone day 45 pairs of timber trucks, eachpair containing 5000ft, were broughtfrom Hokitika. This was a record loadrepresenting a quarter of a million feet,from the mills between Hokitika andRoss.
Stockton Mine Still Idle.a temporary settlement of
the difference between management and•men at the Stockton mine had "beensatisfactorily arranged by representa-tives of each party, the miners haveresolved not to resume work until theirterms are permanently conceded. Theresult of the "strike is seen in the week'soutput, which was only 69? tons.
Exports."For the month ended June 26 the fol-
lowing merchandise was exported fromGreymouth:—Flax, 40 bales; wool, 52bales; bricks, 131 tons;, coke, 118 tons;timber, 1,191,116 feet. The export ofcoal was 24,832 tons, made up as fol-lows: State, 11,249 tons; Blackball, 8888tons; Reefton 3878 tons; Brunuer, 379,tons; and North Brunner 338 tons. Theoutput of the Westp'ort Coal Co. for theweek ended July 3 was 9227 tons, en-
:elusive of locai sales. For the same
period tlie export of coal from Grey-mouth was 7216 tons.
Notes,The Westland County Council last week
paid off the final instalment of a hankoverdraft of £4788, which it has beenreducing at the rate per annum of £320plus interest, during the past 15 years.The liability had been provided for bya social rate, but the council has neverrequired to make a levy, the instalmentshaving been met out of ordinaryrevenue.
The suburb of Cobden .has beengazetted a town district. The bridgeleading from Greymouth, which has beenunder repairs for over two years, isapproaching completion. It is nowwider, and is provided with a side-walkfor pedestrians. The usual mistake hasbeen made of laying the planking soclose that there is not proper drainage.

COMIC OPERA CONTROLBOY SCOUT MOVEMENT.
DISSENSION AND DISCORD.All is not well in the Boy Scout
camp. The rift in the movementin Canterbury is widening, and thereIs evidence that dissatisfaction anddissension are widespread. The Auck-land province is understood to bemaking preparations to secede fromthe Dominion organisation and se-cure a separate charter from theChief Scout.Down under tlio network of officialdom
that permeates tlie Scout organisation.the Bull Tups, the Wolf Cubs, etc., aregoing on obeying orders ami carryingout their promise of service for otherswhich are the basic principles under-lying the Scout movement. The troubleis confined to the "heads" of the or-ganisation. The control of the Scoutmovement is in the hands of DominionHeadquarters, controlled, apparently,by an Executive Committee. Under theDominion organisation are a multiplicityof. Provincial Headquarters, Commis-sioners, Deputy-Commissioners and Dis-trict Committees that would form anexcellent setting for a Gilbertiau opera.The amount of red tape which is ap-parently entwined in these various con-trolling authorities would turn a mili-tarist of the old school green with envy.Seemingly, the appointments' at thehead of the movement, are life appoint-ments. Evidently, reforms are urgentlyrequired, and the scheme of manage-ment in need of a thorough overhaul.The annual report and balance-sheet,issued by the Executive Committee ofthe Council of the Dominion BoyScouts' Association, is signed by Lieut.-Colonel D. Cossgrove, chairman, on be-half of the •Executive Committee. Noinformation as to the personnel of thecommittee is given in the publishedbalance-sheets. The public is entitled totake ah interest in the work of thiscommittee, as, according to the duly-audited balance-sheet, the sum.of £67711/3 was directly agrant of £SOO made by the Government.Salaries and travelling expenditure of■".staff and financial organiser*' areshown in the accounts as absorbing£640 11/1. Nothing is shown as havingbeen spent upon the boys directly,though the large sum of £756 0/9 hasbeen paid out.
Christchurch Committee Resigns.No. 1 District Committee, which
understood _it controlled the Scoutmovement In Christchurch, a#>rnt fromDiocesan troops, was" composed of anumber of city business men, whowere induced to give their time for thegood of the boys. As an outcome ofthe suspension of King's ScoutmasterCollins, of the Merirale Troop, the busi-ness men on the No. 1 Committee haveresigned, as a protest against Lieut.-
• Colonel F. CreswelL Commissioner forthe Canterbury province, suspendingCollins without consulting the commit-tee. The following letter has been ad-dressed by Messrs A. Williams, C. C.Warner, W. E. D. Bishop and HughThomas, the lay members of the No. 1District 'Committee:—
Wo the undersigned members of Xo. 1District Committee hereby tender ourresignations, and in doing so desire to ex-press our utmost disapproval of the actionof the Scout authorities for the discourteousmanner in which the committee has beentreated.
As business men we wish to remind youthat our services have been freely given inthe interests of the Scout movement, andin return for such services,, should receivethe respect due. vNotwithstanding the. scant courtesies af-forded us, we leave the movement withthe satisfaction that we have discharged
duties in an honourable manner, andmdravnured to protect its officers. In thislatter respect we have evidently failed, notby any neglect on our part, but simpty be-
, cause we feel an undercurrent at work, andwhich sooner or later may end with disas-trous effects to the Scout movement. -Inaddition to above, we are convinced thatllie time may speedily come when a publicinquiry- will be demanded. It is our inten-
, t'on to supply a copy of the foregoing tothe daily Press, in the hope that it may as-s's) the lads and officers in a just griev-ance. We also Iqel perfectly justified insupplying the Press with a full statementof facts which has led up to this coursebeing taken by the committee.
In addition, the Scoutmasters' Asso-ciation has given its members a freehand to resign, also.
The trouble is not likely to inspirethe respect for their leaders,but a number of Scoutmasters contendthat the organisation will have to bereformed if the movement is to growand live.
A SPLENDID INVESTMENT.6J PER CENT. FREE OF INCOME
TAX.
Investors in all parts of the Dominionwill welcome the splendid opportunityoffered by the Glaxo ManufacturingCompany (N.Z.), Ltd., for a sound in-vestment of capital. So bright are theprospects for the future, and so success-ful has the past proved, that the com-pany is issuing £IOO,OOO, 25-year 01per cent, debenture stock, in sums of£lO and upwards, for the purpose ofacquiring the manufacturing departmentof Glaxo and milk powder products inNew Zealand, established by the well-known firm of Joseph Nathan and Com-pany, Ltd. The debentures are free ofincome tax up to the present assess-ment under the Laud aud Income Tax(annual) Act, 1019, while a mortgageover freehold ami leasehold propertiesand fixed assets, amounting to £135,000,fully secures the debentures.
Joseph Nathan and Company, Limited,have entered into an agreement with thecompany to purchase the whole of theoutput of Glaxo and first-grad.e fullcream milk powder manufactured atfactories operated by the company.Under this contract. Joseph Nathan andCompany, Limited, are to pay a sumequivalent to not less than £7 per tonin excess of the cost price of the manu-factured artiste, and, in estimating thecost price, j»7i the. expenses of the com-pany are to be taken into consideration,but not interest on capital.
It is proposed to increase the capacityof the factories to an output of about0000 tons, but, even if the present out-put of 4300 tons were not increased, thecompany would still derive, oh the saleof its output under its agreement withJoseph Nathan and Company, Limited,a profit, on the basis of £7 per ton, of£31,500. As the interest on the totalissue of debenture stock is only £6500,it is obvious that apart from the tangibleassets of the company the holdersof the debenture stock will have a "first-class and safe investment, with anample margin for a satisfactory divi-dend.
This is an opportunity for safe invest-ment that should not be missed, and in-tending shareholders should obtaincopies of the prospectus and forms ofapplication from the offices of the com-pany in Palmeroton North, from JosephNathan dud Company, Limited, Wel-lington, or from any branch of theUnion Bank of Australia, Limited, orfrom the local brokers, G.

There was a mild sensation at agathering of the Commercial Travellers’Association when General Russell, inthe course of his address on nationaldefence, digressed for a moment andadvocated the release_of conscientiousobjectors from all further imprison-ment. “You may say it is asking animpossible thing, but my own personalopinion,” he said, “is that at the endof the War conscientious objectorsshould be released.”
Several voices; No, no.General Russell: I quite understand
that you dissociate yourself from myviews, and I only told you what Ithink about it myself. I promised tomake my opinion public. 1 have doucso.

"JOY-RIDING" IN SQUAREMAGISTRATE ALTERS CHARGE.A new development has occurred
In connection with the "Cathedralpquare" motor case. In this case,Harold Roy Paynter was charged atthe Magistrate's Court with sevenbreaches of the motor-car regulations?"if the Christehurch City Council. Athe conclusion of the hearing yesterday,
the Magistrate (Mr S. E. McCarthy,8.M.) dismissed six of the charges, andamended the other—that relating todriving at a dangerous speed—so as toeliminate Cathedral Square altogetheras the scene of the affair.
Paynter was charged that on June20, while driving a motor-car, he did notsound a bell or horn or other device•when passing the intersection of Cathe-dral Square and Colombo Street; thatlie drove at other than a walking paceacross the Bank of New Zealand cross-ing; that he failed to keep to thenear side of the street; that he drovearound the south-east corner of Cathe-dral Square at a speed exceeding sixmiles per hour; that he failed to givejiotiee by holding up his hand of MsIntention to turn; and that he allowedgases to escape from his exhaust with-out any reduction of noise.
Senior-Detective Boddain conductedthe prosecution. Mr F. D. Sargent,■with him Mr C. S. Thomas, appeared forthe defendant, who had entered a plea ofnot guilty.
Ronald Vlrtm stated that he was apassenger in the motor-car on Sundaynight, June 20. The car left the WhiteHart Hotel at about 7.15 p.m. Witnesssat on the front seat with the driver.The car proceeded towards the Squareand turned towards the Post Office,•where Kirk, another passenger, clearedlis box. Witness had his foot on theeiren, and operated it the greater portionof the time the car was in motion. Re-turning to the Post Office, later, Paynte*got out of his car and fixed the cut-off.The speed of the-car was, in witness'sestimation, an ordinary one, and the carwas on its right side of the road. Payn-ter -was perfectly sober. The boys inthe car sang occasional snatches of song.All the fellows were returned men.
In reply to questions, witness saidthat before reaching the White HartHotel, the party had been to Sumner,Lyttelton. Governor's Bay and Motu-karara. They stopped once at the frontof the Governor's Bay Hotel. Only twowere singing when they.travelled roundthe Square. The car did not turn intoGloucester Street from Colombo Street."When /a constable stopped the car,Paynter asked him if the car was goingtoo fast, and the constable said "No."Paynter got out and stood in front ofthe headlights. Th/constable accusedhim of being drunk.' Constable Phillips,•who joined Constable Packer, rode awayin the car, at the invitation of Kirk.
Mr Sargent submitted that a signifi-cant feature was that the prosecutionbad not called Constable Phillips orDetective Quartermain. It seemed thatConstable Packer had laid every possiblecharge, because he had been turneddown by his superiors in connectionwith his claim that Paynter was drunk.Mr Sargent further submitted thatConstable Packer had greatly exagger-ated his story. Packer was the onlywitness who "claimed that the car wasgoing at 50 to 60 miles per hour—atthe Tate it was claimed by Packer thatthe car was travelling round a coiner,it would have hit the Bank of NewZealand. Packer also said there were500 to 600 persons in the Square—otherwitnesses gave the number as 50 to 60.
The Magistrate said that the only in-formation that he could take notice ofwas that alleging that defendant haddriven a car in a manner dangerous tothe public. There was no evidence asto Cathedral Square which was conclu-sive. Reliance could be placed on theevidence of Monro Fulton, who saw .ared car, No. 319, being driven alongGloucester Street and turn into ColomboStreet. Mr Fulton wrote to the CityMotor Inspector at the time, reportingthe incident. Fulton said that the carwas on the wrong side of the road inGloucester Street, and turned on itswrong_sidc into Colombo Street. Paynternearly knocked a woman down, Fultonalleging that he saved the woman. Ifthis was not driving a car in a mannerdangerous to the public, he did notknow what was. Under the circum-stances, he would amend, unYler Section79 of the Police Offences Act, the in-formation concerning driving at a dan-gerous speed.
Mr Sargent protested. "This is mostnnjust," he said. "I will want to callevidence on this. The police did notcharge my client with anything outsidethe Square." Mr Sargent added thatthe section referred to was intended togive the Magistrate power to amend inanch cases where the wrong street wasnamed. The Magistrate now was addinganother charge, and the defence wasdebarred from calling evidence.
The Magistrate: I've done this sort©f thing before. You may object, ofcourse.
Mr Sargent: I raise a formal objec-tion. I am not prepared to meet thecharge at this stage—it is a new charge.
The Magistrate adjourned the easeuntil Wednesday, at 10 a.m.
Mr Sargent: What happens to theother charges?T can only say Ican’t follow the evidence of the prose-cution or defence as far as it concernsCathedral Square. The other informa-
tions are dismissed.A new information was handed to MrSargent, charging the defendant with
driving along Colombo and GloucesterStreets in a manner dangerous to thepublic, by driving on the wrong sideof Colombo Street, and turning sharplyinto Gloucester Street, also on hiswrong side.

They remindme of that famous London make we usedto get.” “Yes, indeed,’’ said one of theladies present, “the flavour is quite new*to me—so delicately alluring. I havebeen trying to imagine how you got it.”“An accidental discovery,” said thehostess. “You would never guess.”“Oh, do tell us,” ladies.‘
‘ Well, I 1 bought I would try an experi-ment, and I added a spoonf(il of Tucker’sCustard Powder to my -usual recipe.That is all.” In response to furtherpleadings the lady wrote out the recipefor her friends. Here it is:—
Two cupfuls of rolled oats, 1 cupful ofsugar, ilb butter, 1 teaspoonful ofTucker’s “Family” Baking Powder, 1tablespoonful of Tucker’s “Sunshine”Almond Custard Powder, 1 tablespoon-ful of flour, and 1 egg. Bake on greasedtray.
A large fin of Tucker’s “Sunshine”Custard Powder costs a little more thanother brands, but it contains more, andis very much better value. Ask yourgrocer for “Sunshine” every time. .9

FOR INDIGESTION TAKEBISURATED MAGNESIA.
mNearly everybody suffers at times
after eating. Many can rarely eat ■with-out suffering the most excruciatingagony. Some people call this indiges-tion, some dyspepsia; others gastritis;but, no matter what you call it, nomatter how many remedies or how manydoctors you may have tried—quick re-lief may usually be obtained by takinghalf a teaspoonful of Bisurated Mag-nesia in a little hot water immediatelyafter meals. This neutralises the acidand stops food fermentation—the causeof nine-tenths of all stomach trouble—-and thus enables the stomach to proceedwith digestion in a painless, normalmanner. Care should be taken to in-sist on getting the genuine BisuratedMagnesia, which is obtainable in bothpowder and tablet form. .1

General Sir William Birdwood, whomet with a very fine reception atWanganui to-day (says our special cor-respondent), said that when comingdown the river he was informed thatover 30 soldiers had been settled on theup-river lands. He hoped that theywould meet with success, but, at thesame time, he considered that it 'waswrong to allow men who knew nothingof the game to be placed on land andwork out their own salvation. It wasunfair to the men, and a waste of moneyto the country. - They would never al-low a man to extract a tooth, or draw upa legal document without knowledgeand experience,- and the same principleshould apply to the settlement of sol-diers. Men on soldier settlements whoseknowledge of farming was limitedshould be taught, so that they mighthave a winning chance of success.
The Education Department disagreeswith the Canterbury Education Boardin its view that, in the case of ex-women students, marriage should be suf-ficient reason for absolving parentsfrom liability as to the bond given inrespect to women students at the Train-ing College. The department, in a let-ter, stated that, although the liabilitymay be regarded as a heavy one, if aparent is not prepared to face the condi-tions of the bond, the student shouldnot enter the college. Pupil teachersand probationers do not return to theState in teaching service,- even to asmall degree, the equivalent of moneysspent on their training by the Govern-ment, according to the department. Inthe case of students at training col-leges who have been pupil teachers orprobationers, the Government pays forfour years the whole cost of mainten-ance, and those students begin to giveany return only when they leave thetraining colleges. A member of theboard facetiously remarked that astudent accepted a bigger and more im-portant bond when she married. It wasdecided again to submit the board'sviews to the department.
0Two nominations for the vacant seaton the Canterbury College Board ofGovernors, caused by the resignation ofMr T. H. Davey, have been received bythe returning officer (Mr L. A. Stringer).These are J. C. Adams and J. McCombs,M.P. An election will take place onJuly 17.

The membership wasincreased by 149 new- members duringthe month.' A very large number ofnew books were added, 266 being placedin the circulating, 114 in the reference,and 18 in the juvenile, library. Travel-ling libraries have recently been estab-lished at Waddington and Mason's Flat.Two of the collections from other' dis-tricts were returned for renewal, andit was gratifying to find how well thebooks had been used by the readers.
At a special meeting''of the RangioraBorough Council last evening, When theMayor (Mr C. I. Jennings) and a}l thecouncillors were present, the resigna-tion was received of Mi- T.

The members of the Canterbury Edu-cation Board yesterday commented onthe. statement in the annual report ofthe chairman (Mr E. H. Andrews)that, during the year ended December31, 1919, there we're 406 candidates forJunior National Scholarships, and thatonly 39 qualified. Mr T. Hughes statedthat there must be some reason for sucha small percentage of qualifications. Onthe fact of it it was a reflection oneducation in Canterbury, but he wasconvinced that, if the reason wereknown, it would be found thatthere was no reflection in the figures.He considered that the explanation
Imight be found in the fact that th«department had cut down the percent-age basis. Mr W. A. Banks said th»figures were decidfedly suggestive. Can-terbury inspectors'apparently followed-;instructions literally, while inspectors in \
other districts did not. The board de-cided to refer the-statement to the Ap- .•

END OF THE DEBATE.
At last the undistinguished debateon the Address-in-Reply has come toan end. On occasion it has provedinteresting, though never at any stagereaching brilliance. There is a dis-position to condemn the debate asbeing wholly useless. Undoubtedlymuch valuable time was wasted, andmoney too—we do not get the"Hansard",reports for nothing. Butthe discussion served the purpose ofclearing the political atmosphere toa great extent. That is a necessarypreliminary when a new Parlia-ment meets for the first time. Inaddition we do not doubt but thatMr Massey was glad of the oppor-tunity afforded him to get on withhis Bills. Probably, too, he wasfon thelook-out for useful hints whichmight profitably be embodied infuture legislation. Perhaps the mostencouraging features of the debateand its divisions were the demonstra-tion of Mr Massey's strength, andthe expressed intention ofjpiembersoh the other side of the House tohelp along the Government whenthey conscientiously could. The Go-vernment's solidarity will be wel-comed by those people who havepride and faith in their native land.
[ Mr Massey is in such a positionthat he can go ahead with his legis-lation without fear or favour. Wehope he will so order his course. Hehas an enviable chance to bluntcriticism and win over to his sidethose whose chief concern in Par-liament is the nation, not party.Member after member not Connectedwith the Reformers rose up duringthe debate to denounce a continuanceof purely party tactics. That is a*comforting sign. Political and socialunity would do much to lighten thecommunity's burden. The presentMinistry does not by any meansfocus all administrative talent in its
'collective person. Mr Massey's teamis more or less experimental; as ithad to be. But, so long as the new-chum Minister is a trier, he oughtto receive the sympathetic and activeaid of Labour and Liberal alike. Andwe believe it will be admitted that,so far, the younger members ofCabinet are showing promisingform. They are fortunate in thatthey have a strong man like thePrime Minister at their head, but thebest of leadership would not trans-form a Ministerial "dud" into areal, heaven-splitting, earth-rendinghigh explosive. There are no incan-descent political intellects in theMinistry to-day, but there are earnestmen, capable of learning their jobsthoroughly; and this is far* better.The politician who thinks he is agenius is unsatisfactory and annoy-ing because he is never what heclaims to be, and—which is moreexasperating still—he is incapableof profiting by the wisdom of others.We have greater confidence in thosewho, raised to positions of eminence,are modest enough to recognise theirlimitations and frank enough toadmit them. Our opinion of thepresent Ministry is that it willjustify itself if it is given the oppor-tunity. It will be severely testedthis session; tried, perhaps, as noNew Zealand Cabinet was ever triedbefore. It should emerge from thethe ordeal a belter Government for
all that. And, as it has been en-trusted with the responsibility ofrunning the country's business, ithas a right to expect the support ofall who would have that businesstransacted on sound lines.
ONE WAGE-SLAVE TO HISTEACHER.
We are not quite sure whether it issincere or merely an attempt to beclever. Frankly, wr e hope, and think,that the writer means what he says.It is a letter to that versatile poli-tician who is a regular cohtributorto our Labour contemporary the“Maoriland Worker.” It is under-stood that this gentleman edits the“Send-good-thoughts-at-9” column—-the children’s section—as well as theweekly letter to “Henry Dubb.”Henry, of course, is the wage-slave,and our politician-journalist con-ceives it to be his duty to keepdrilling into his victim’s head thathe is a wage-slave. Well, one of theDubb family has turned, like theworm, to assert himself. He hasindited a letter to his Marxian pro-fessor. We like the tone of it,though “dear Teddy” may not. SaysDubb:
You’ve been thinking for years that youknow what I wanted or needed, did you.You thought I wanted or needed a Socialistcommonwealth. Forget it; I didn’t, .'■'“ atI wanted was plenty of work, a bit of anoccasional flutter at the races, and thento finish up end) day with enough beer tomake me fancy myself a man. '"■ That ismost all I needed. ... I wouldn't exchangea life like this for two Socialist common-wealths. ... You think you arc doing mea favour, but if you like to think, you willsec that when I am ready for a differentstandard of living it will come, and any-thing you can do or say will not advanceor retard it one bit. . . . Let me give yousome advice for a change, and paste it inyour hat: Leave me alone and mind yourown business. Make your business makingmoney, and if you make much money 111respect you. . . .
What does our local Marxian sayto that? Cynicism there is in thisquaint' epistle, but it contains alsoenough common s|mse to make itworth the extra we cangive it. '
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.PRICES INVESTIGATION—-
TRIBUNAL.To the Editor of THE SUN. v
Sir,—In your sub-leader of July6, in criticising Mr Ellis for statinghis opinion of the various boards set upby the Government to control the pricesof commodities, I think you are some-what unfortunate. Mr Ellis was amember of this tribunal for" a fewmonths, and no doubt during that timea considerable ainount of informationwas supplied to the tribunal, and MrEllis should be in a favourable positionto pass an opinion on , the efficacy ofthese different boards. To my mind thepolicy of the Board of Trade has beena policy of expediency, and the resultof the latest prosecutions by the PricesInvestigation Tribunal does not inspireone with much hope, and I know thatinformation has been supplied to thatbody and it has not been acted upon.To give you an instance, I reported acoal merchant for selling coal above theschedule price, and I supplied receiptsto prove my statement. Later I re-ceived a communication from the secre-tary of the tribunal, stating that, as thecoal merchants had been working undergreat difficulties during the last fewmonths, they did not deem it advisableto take legal proceedings in this case,and only issued a warning. If it wasdone again, the letter stated, legalaction would b e taken. Taking intoconsideration the results of the variousboards and commissions that have beenset up to investigate and control theH.C.L., one can only come to the conclu-sion that therh is quite a lot in MrEllis’s statement that the -public arebeing hoodwinked.—I am, etc.,

Sir,—I. see that Thompson -was in-jured again yesterday and had to retire.Surely the 'selectors' will now see thefutility of putting cripples into theteam. The Canterbury backs lackedcombination. This is hardly to be won-dered at considering the scratch lotthey were at the finish, but the"dinkum” team will dot be muchbettet off unless they have a fewgames together before the big matchesstart. A match or two between "A”backs and "B” forwards on one sideand “B” backs and “A” forwards onthe other would be interesting andwould give most of those deserving con-sideration a chance to catch theselectors’ eye.
Two of your correspondents are hav-ing a tilt regarding the merits of theMerivale backs and one of them is veryaggrieved because "more Marists do notwin higher honours. I think the factis that Merivale possesses more "stars,”but the Marist backs are a fair averagelot whose success is due to the factthat they are in the pink of conditionand that they work well together.
Harking back to the representativeteam, this is the back division I wouldlike to see: Evans, McCormack, Austin,Ford, Henry, McCormick, Fitzgerald.—I am, etc.,

LAKE COLERIDGE POWER.STATEMENT BY MINISTER.
MACHINERY ON THE WAY.[From Our Own Parliamentary Reporter.]
- WELLINGTON, Jitly 9.The matter of the Lake Coleridge
electrical supply was again mentionedin the House to-day. Mr D. 6. Sulli-van, in addressing a question to theMinister of Public Works (Hon. J. G.Coates), said that he had no desire toharass the Government, but the peopleof Christchurch would like to knowwhen the Minister could make his pro-mised statement regarding the depart-ment's plans for increasing the supplyof power from Lake Coleridge. Theposition in Christchurch was becomingmore acute every day. Manufacturershad closed down their steam plants andhad, in recent years, been relying onelectricity. Now they were unable toget the power necessary to carry ontheir industries. They desired to havesome information as to when the de-partment would, be able to go aheadwith the work of increasing the supply.
The Minister replied that.he had hadthis matter before him a good deal inthe last month or so. In regard to im-mediate development, portions of thenecessary material had arrived, andjsome of the machinery was now on theway up to the power-house. He referredto piping and a generator to provideanother 8000 h.p. But that power wasnot all going to Christchurch; there wasthe South Canterbury scheme to bethought of. In addition to this newbig generator, there would be twosmaller ones giving h.p.each. That would make an additionalsupply of about 12«,000 h.p. But eventhat would not be all that the depart-ment could sell. The scheme for thefurther development of the' Bupplywould be much bigger than that whichhe had indicated, which was to meetthe immediate demand. In regard tothe bigger scheme, he had the depart-ment 's statement before him and he wasconsidering it. It was a big thing anda great many inquiries, had still to bemade—a, great deal of information hadstill to be supplied—before he would beprepared to make a definite statement.But when he did speak it would be aconsidered statement and one that couldbe relied on by those affected.

PROPORTIONALISM."NOT PRACTICABLE."
A MEMBER'S CRITICISM.[From Our Own Parliamentary Reporter.]
WELLINGTON, July 9.A. strong but calm and well-
reasoned criticism of the propor-tional representation system of, elec-tion was offered by Mr A. S. Mal-colm (Clutha) in his Address-in-Reply speech' in the House of Repre-sentatives this afternoon. The hon.member admitted that when he hadfirst turned his attention to the sys-tem he had been greatly taken withit. Mechanically, it was perfect; butit was not practicable. What, heasked, was the real aim of all repre-sentation?
Mr "A. McXicol (Pahiatua): Goodgovernment.
Mr Malcolm: Yes! Good govern-ment!
Mr W. E. Parry (Auckland Cen-tral) : Democratic government.
Mr Malcolm: No! I say no! Thehon. member is entirely wrong. If wecould get it, the very best govern-ment for this or any other countrywould be a benevolent despot—oneman good enough, wise enough, well-
I informed enough, energetic enoughand, above all, unselfish enoughto govern the whole country.
Mr G. Witty (Riccarton): Cannotyou find him?Mr Malcohq: No!Mr G. Forbes (Hurunui): Have
not you got him now? (Laughter).Mr Malcolm: It is impossible to
get such a man. The great maj»rityof men are especially tainted byselfishness. >
Mr H.-E. Holland (Buller): The"Progressives" allege that you Wereruled by a despot who was notbenevolent.
Mr Malcolm: Well, I suppose theywanted to substitute another despot.We must not allow the idea of repre-sentation io so obsess us that webelieve that its whole aim and ob-ject is to secure accurate represen-tation of the people. Its purpose" isto get good government. I believethat to get good government we musthave representative government;but we must not allow the idea torun away with us.,Mr Malcolm explained that, with
proportional representation and allshades of opinion represented inParliament, there would be no ma-jority, and no Government couldbe set up if it did not represent amajority in the House. The result
' would be 'chaos. That was thefundamental defect, of proportionalrepresentation. It* would be farbetter to have a House imperfectlyrepresentative of the various schoolsof thought.,but with a majority, thanto have all schools of thought re-presented, with no majority for any-one.
Mr W. E. Parry (Auckland Cen-tral): That is not'representation.
Mr Malcolm: J think it is, as thefirst essential of a Government is amajority. It is impossible to have-;*')Government without athe House: How could it put legis-lation through?
Dr H. T. J. Thacker (ChristchurchEast): How do th£y get on in Switz-erland, Denmarkand Norway?
Mr Parry-: And Tasmania?Mr Malcolm replied that he, had
read most that had appeared on thisquestion, and he, believed proporrtional representation to have been afailure wherever it had been tried.Tasmania afforded the worst sex-ample There the parties wereso evenly Balanced that no forwardlegislation could be put through.
1 Proportional representation was adead failure. There was another ob-jection to it, especially from thecountry member s point of view.They were apt to forget that the Go-vernment was not only a legislativebody, but also a huge industrialconcern, in the country at any rate.VA member of Parliament was not somuch a legislator as a local managerof State affairs. Under proportionalrepresentation such conditions couldnot continue. They could not haveone man for one district.
Mr Parry: But we would have amember for a big district. .
Mr Malcolm asked how*that wouldwork. To whom would the peoplego with their troubles? They wouldnot know where to go.
Mr H. E. Holland (Buller): Thecounty councils would get extendedpowers. / •
Mr Malcolm cbntended that thatwould not overcome the difficulty.There would be no one member re-sponsible to one section of the coun-try for legislation and State enter-prise. *" , ■;.
Mr Parrv: We would have abroad national organisation then,and no more parochial business irtour Parliament.
Mr Malcolm replied that it was notparochialism, but the country musthave individual representation. The'preferential system of voting hadbeen condemned all round the House,so he would pass it over. Thatbrought them to this—ahat, in spiteof its obvious imperfections, the pre-sent electoral system was the bestworking system that they could get,and the fairest system. Another ob-jection to proportional representa-tion was that it gave a highly organ-ised body—whether Reform, Liberalor Labour—an undue advantage.It would have more opportunities ofadvertising its candidates and com-mending them to the people. Thesmaller bodies, which might be.right—because it was quite correct thatsmall bodies were sometimes fore-runners of great movements, and hadmore of the truth in them than otherbodies—did not get a show. Underthe present system everyone hadan equal chance. Even one man, ifhe had xthe stuff in him, would gdout and win a seat. It was true that,to-day, men did get in on minorityvotes, but that was just as likely Adhappen in one case as in another.It was no special privilege of oneparty, so it was fair. There was an-other point. Some demanded a sys-tem that would ensure that the mem-ber returned had a majority behindhim. Those people were labouringunder the fallacy that, in all elector-ates, there was a majority. Noth-ing would be more fallacious. Wherethere were only two parties, onemust have a majority, but, in thegreat number of the electorates inNew Zealand, there were at leastthree, or even more, parties, andthere was no real majority in sucha case. The best thing that couldbe done was to get the man who re-presented the largest section. It wasasking for an impossibility to de-mand that a member should repre-sent a majority when no majorityexisted.

(A. A N.Z.) (Ree. July 10, » a.m.) LONDON, July 9.Feeling ran high in the House of Commons, and was also
reflected in a large body of public opinion, that Brigadier-GeneralDyer (who was relieved of his command as a result of thi Amrit-fcar affair) lias been harshly dealt with.
. Mr R. S. Gwynne, speaking in the House of Commons, saidlie resented Mr Asquith's declaration that Brigadier-GeneralDyer had received a fair hearing, and also the Rt. Hon. WinstonChurchill's wholesale condemnation. Mr Gwynne added:—
The Hunter report found that Brigadier-General Dyercommitted only an :rror of judgment. Mr Churchill's errorof judgmentat Gallipoli ended in disaster, yet he gave up onegreat post only to receive another, and now sat in judgment »
on, and condemned, Brigadier-General Dyer, whose "error"doubtless saved the lives of thousands. ™
Mr Gwynne accused the Rt. Hon. E. S. Montagu (Secretaryof State for India) of sympathising with the Indians whofavoured disorder, and also of-keeping the House in ignorance ofthe real conditions in India.The "Morning Post'' has opened a fund to indemnifyBrigadier-General Dyer and to defray the expenses of his defence

ADDRESS-IN-REPLY.DEBATE CONCLUDED.
END OF SEVEN DAYS' TALK.[From Our Own Parliamentary Reporter.]
WELLINGTON, July 9.After seven days, the Address-in-
Reply debate has concluded in theHouse of Representatives, the endbeing reached soon after 10 o'clockto-night.
In the early hours of the morn-ing the debate had been adjournedon the motion of Mr J. McCombs(Lyttelton), but he did not desire tospeak, so Mr S. G. Smith (Taranaki)took up the running to-day. MrSmith expressed his complete inde-pendence and criticised the oldparty-machine methods. "When itcame to a party division in which hehad to lake part, he would choosethe Liberal Party as the lesser oftwo evils. He did not believe, withthe Labour Party, that the way toindustrial peace lay through inter-national revolutionary Socialism. Hebelieved that the workers should takethe present-day machine as it stood,capture it if possible, and move for-ward by degrees. If Labourbroughtforward proposals with which heagreed, however, he would supportthem.
New Defence Proposals.Mr A. S. Malcolm (Clutha) said
that after hearing the speeches ofthe new members he was of theopinion that the House had neverbeen stronger in debatingpower andgeneral ability. Speaking of defence,he recommended the - abolition, or,at any rate, the suspension, of themilitary system, and the substitutionof drill and training in the primaryand secondary schools and in theuniversity. The cost to the countrywould be almost nothing at all, asagainst about £500,000 per annum forthe upkeep of the presertf militaryestablishment. It was impossible todevelop a military system withoutthat system taking command. Hewas an Out'-ahd-out advocate of aWhite New Zealand, which couldbe maintained only by a dominantnavy. A navy was the first, chiefand essential line of defence; sothe first thing' was to support theRoyal Navy. There was a child-likefaith on the part of the supportersof the military system that a largebody of troops in New Zealandwould prevent raids. That wasfoolishness. The nation that heldthe seas could raid the strongest mili-tary country. Many of the officersand men who had done such splendidwork in the New Zealand Expedi-tionary Force had had no militarytraining whatever before they en-tered camp. Their valour and ex-ploits, on top of the many examplesof history, were strong arguments infavour of the abolition of the pre-sent military system in New Zealand.The system was held up to-day andcommended for its moral, influence.Well, to him, the picture of thestaff sergeant-major as a Sundayschool teacher did not appeals Thecountry wanted to give its youth amoral training and that sort of thing,but there was no need to go to a mili-tary system to get it. New Zealandhad a fine education system admin-istered by men of high character,and the matter of moral trainingcould well be left to them. Underhis system the higher officers wouldbe more efficiently trained, for therewould be chairs of military scienceat the university colleges. Thetraining would be along the linesof that given in the British militaryschools, and at West Point, in theUnited States.
An hon. member: How muchwould this cost?
Mr Malcolm replied that the costwould be about £IO,OOO or £15,000 perannum. The system would becheaper and less cumbersome, but asefficient as, and less of a drag onindustry than, the present militaryscheme. He hoped that the Ministerof Defence would not be contentwith considering the opinion of mili-tary men in framing his new de-fence proposals. The citizens of thecountry had a right to be consulted;and the point of view of the citizens,especially in the country districts,was that the present system made toogreat a demand upon the time ofyoung men, and interfered with in-dustry.
Scientific Research.In a plea for research work, Mr
Malcolm said that it was not somuch capital and labour as thescientist and the inventor that couldincrease production. At present, inNew Zealand, research was carriedout under Government grant only.There must be extension if the coun-try were to make progress. He re-commended that all industrial com-panies should be compelled to em-ploy one or,more research experts,according to their capital. Britainhad always led the way in science:but the British Government hadnever encouraged the scientist orthe industrial research worker.
Mr G. Witty (Riccarton) said thatthe consumer had to be consideredequally with the producer. Everyincrease that the producer got for hisland or produce came back upon theworking consumer; so they musttake, a broad view of the positionand see that both sides had fair play.
The Prince of Wales had provedhimself one of the best "advanceagents" that the British Empire hadever sent out.
Faults of Administration.Instead of paying highly to bring
out immigrants, the Governmentshould attempt to increase the birth-rate in New Zealand. All exnensesof maternity should be borne by theState. Every increase in the costof living made for a further decreasein'the birth-rate. If the Governmentcould not control the landed cost ofgoods, it could, and should, havecontrolled prices thereafter. Pricesof home-grown produce should havebeen kept down, and some wealth sotaken from those who had done bestduring Ihe War. He criticised theGovernment for appropriating the£15,000,000 surplus for soldier settle-ment. If the money had been bor-rowed, more care would have beentaken in the purchase of the land.Or the Government could have bor-rowed earlierat 5 per cent., and havehad that surplus- now to carrv onsettlement working, instead of hav-ing to borrow at 6 or 7 ner cent.'The Government had gone the wrongway ' about encouraging the coal-mining industry on the West CoastIt had closed up the Seddonvillemine before it was worked out.The Prime Minister: No! It wasworked out!
A Policy of "Stop!"Mr Witty contended that the Go-
vernment was doing its best toblock miners from working on theco-operalive principle. The Go-vernment's railway policy on the
Coast was demonstrated at one cross-ing where there was a "Stop. Lookout for the engine," sign Beside ahalf-built line. Those who had beenschool-children when that sign waserected had now families of theirown—and still there was no train.
He asked how many owners hadever received notice to cut up theirland.
The Prime Minister: A greatmany!
Mr Witty: When did you do it?Mr Massey: Five million acres
have been cut up in eight years."Yes," agreed Mr Witty, "but how
often have the compulsory measuresof the law been put into.effect?"Large estates should be burst up;but, as a matter of fact, aggrega-tion was going on.
He claimed that there was greatinequality in the valuation of landin his electorate. The unimprovedvalue of small holdings was two-thirds above that of larger holdingsadjoining. That was unfair. TheGovernment should go through thebooks of every firm in New Zealand,and take away all excess profitsmade during the War. The sameshould " apply to land. Severalthousands of acres of bush had beenset aside for the purposes of paperpulp. Companies holding thoseareas should be compelled to com-mence operations, or else forfeittheir rights over the bush. If theGovernment had been, sincere in re-gard to the housing question, it couldhave met the need. Licensing com-mittees had ordered hotels to bebuilt, at a total cost of £400,000. andthat when the people needed cot-tages.
"Ins" and "Outs."The Prime Minister had said
that his party had not contested 16seats at the General Election. Why?He had tried to get 16 men to standfor Riccarton. and finally got one,and that one had been man enoughto say that the better man had wonthe seat. That was what he admiredhim for. "■•", ■ ." .
Mr Massey: I hope that you willsay the same next year, when he getsin. • .
Mr Witty: Yes! But he's not in yet,and I'm not ouj. He added that theGovernment should have com-mandeered shipping for the trans-port of. timber and sugar.
Mr Massey: The shipping was notunder our control. •• ■
Mr Witty: But you should havecommandeered it. You comman-deered the men.
Mr Massey: Oh! You are talkingbigger nonsense than usual, andthat's saving a good deal.
Mr Witty: I say the#Governmenthas failed. During thenar, it spentin. shipping enough to buy the UnionCo. out four or five times.
Mr Massey: Is this an electionspeech ?
Mr Wittv: Nol It's facts! (Laugh-ter.) He asked if it were fair thatNew Zealand mutton should be sell-ing for 2d per lb at Home, when itwas 1/- here.
Mr W. D. Lysnar (Gisborne):That's not correct!
Mr Wittv: It's in the papers.Mr Lysnar: Don't take any notice
of what is in the papers.,
Mr Massey: It is not correct!Mr Massey Overworked.
As regarded education, said MrWitty, too much attention was beinggiven to the higher branches, at theexpense of the primary school build-ings. There was only one man inthe Ministry to-day, and he domin-ated that Ministry. Unless he wascareful, the Prime Minister wasgoing to ruin his health by takingtoo much on himself. It onlyshowed that there was no man inthe Ministry capable of taking hisplace. There was hardly anotherman in the Ministry, but the Liberalsdid not wish Mr Massey,because then they would.have no oneto throw things at. *'
Mr A. McNicol (Pahiatua): Thenwhat are you growling about?
Mr W. T. Jennings (Taumarunui)said that he had been connected withthe Liberal Party since the davs ofGrey, down through the days of Bal-lance and Seddon. There- was nobetter flag than that of Liberalism.To hear the Labour people talk, onemight think that New Zealand wasthe most down-trodden country inthe World, but New Zealanders weretoo independent to be trampled on.He denied that the workers of NewZealand were going slow. Thepolitical ideal of New Zealand wasin the direction of Liberalism, andthe people would return to thepolicy of the great Liberal leaders.If the present Government broughtdown good measures, it would notfind him a harsh critic.
Mr H. Atmore (Nelson) said thatthe Labour Party's platform was th6best before the country to-day. butthat policy was not the result of thethinking of the present leaders ofthe party. It was a platform of oldplanks, got together by the necessityof Labour all over the world. But.there would be no great progress on"the part of the Labour Party untilit recognised all who ' worked,whether with hands or head, as be-longing to the true Labour Partv.The economic problems of the worldmust be settled. If they were notsettled in the parliaments, theyworild be settled in the streets byforce—and surely the world had hadsufficient Direct Action in the pastfive years. The extremist was re-cruited by the inaction of Parlia-ment, which would do nothing.
Mr T. E. Y. Seddon (Westland)urged the Government to enunciate abold mining policy. He asked whatwas to be the Government's afforest-ation policy.
Mr F. F. Hockly (Rotorua), inreply, congratulated the Leader ofthe Opposition for having made thebest of a very weak case against theGovernment. He trusted that theHoyise would now settle down tosolid work, to make for the progressand prosperity of the Dominion.
The debate was concluded and theAddress-in-Reply was passed at10.23 p.m., and the House rose oneminute later.

{From Our Own Parliamentary Reporter.]WELLINGTON, July 10.
An indication of the Government'ssettlement policv was given by theHon. D. H. Guthrie {Minister ofLands) in his reply to the homeservice deputation this morning.The Minister stated that the Repatri-ation Department was building up afund, in the form of money investedin land, that could be used later forother settlement. The policy of theGovernment was to provide settle-ment facilities for all, includingcivilians, but returned soldiers musttome first. He was told that there
j were still 6000 returned soldiers re-quiring assistance.
The Prime Minister (Rt. Hon. AV.F. Massey): I don't think there areso manv.
Mr Guthrie: I hope there are not.It would take some time to find theland required for that number.

AVELLINGTON, July 10.The secretary W the Mine-owners'
federation, Mr AV.

Arbuckle,to say, in reply to his tele-phone "message, that the Miners'Federation is not prepared to submitto the decision of a chairman in thesematters, and that, in the circumstances,It would be useless going on with theconference.

EXCESSIVE CLAIMS.DEMANDS ON FINANCES.
COUNTRY CANNOT FIND THEMONEY.
[From Our Own Parliamentary Htporter.]WELLINGTON, July 10.
Some striking comments upon thedemands at present being made onthe Government's finances werefurnished bv the Prime Minister (Rt.Hon. W. F. Massey) in his reply tothe big home service deputation thismorning.
"I happen to be in charge offinance—and, properly, so I think,as head of the Government—and Ican sav that the claims coming infrom "all directions are simplyenormous," said Mr Massey, "It isquite impossible for the country tofind all the money that is being askedfor. I am saving that quite apartfrom the justice of the claims thatmay be made by home service menor anyone else. The claims thathave been made this Session do notamount to less than £100,000,000. Itis impossible to lind that money, Nocountry with our population and ourliabilities could do it."
The Government, Mr Masseyadded, would try to do justice allround.

SANITATION TROUBLES.LOCAL BODIES IN CONFERENCE.
In order to consider the matter of thecollection and disposal of nightsoil inthe unsewered portions of the city andits environs, a conference of localbodies, called by the Waimairi CountyCouncil, was held last evening in theChristchurch City Couneil Chambers.There were present: Messrs J. W. Bean-land (Deputy-Mayor of Christchurch),A. D. Dobson "(City Engineer), J.Cleland, C. E. Cross, J. A. Uren, R. J.Sharpe, G. E. Curry and J. H. Sharpe(Waimairi County Council), A. Manhire(Spreydon Borough Council), A. D.Ford and H. W. Wise (Riecarton Bor-•ough Couneil), A. H. Adams (Heath-1cote County Council"), and W. V. Siddall(Woolston Borough Council).
The Deputy-Mayor, who presided, saidthat the city contractor, Mr Howard,had recently' been granted an advancein rates. Whatever it cost, the mattermust be dealt with so that an efficientservice could be provided. The CityCouncil intended to inaugurate its ownscheme, but it would be some time be-fore the necessary gear arrived. Thecontractor experienced trouble with hismen. Mr Beanland put in a statementfrom the contractor, in which the diffi-culties in connection with the positionwere outlined. The men were asking£1 per night. The contractor demanded25/- per man. If the local bodies wouldnot grant the increase, he would bewilling to hand over all the gear at asmall charge, local bodies to find thelabour. Unless the further increase wasgranted, he would be unable to carry onafter the end of the present month.
Mr A. Manhire (Spreydon) consid-ered that the work was not doneproperly. If the service was efficient,no one would object to the suggestedcharge of 25/-.
Following discussion, Mr A. D. Ford(Riecarton) moved:—"That this con-ference suggests that the ChristchurchCity Council, take charge of the workand allow other local bodies to makearrangements with them until the.sewer-age is laid."
Mr C. E. Cross (Waimairi) secondedthe motion "pro forma."
Mr W. Manhire moved, as an amend-ment:—"That a committee be set upto go into the matter with Mr Howard,and report to a further conference in aweek's time."
Mr H. AV. Wise seconded the amend-ment, which was carried, and a com-mittee was appointed.
CUST ROLL OF HONOUR.A roll of honour for the Cust district
was unveiled at a large publie gather-ing in the Institute Hall, Cust, onThursday evening. Mr H. Tallott,chairman of the local Patriotic Com-1mittee, presided, and the military au-thorities were represented by Colonel R.Young, C.8., C.M.G., D.5.0., officer com-manding the Canterbury Military Dis-trict, and Lieut.-Colonel F.

Healready had promises amounting to £9O,including a donation of £SO from MrH. Tallott. The meeting approved thescheme and set up a committee to carryit out.
SESSION NOTES.JOTTINGS FROM THE GALLERY.
DEBATE ON ADDRESS ENDS.
(From Our Own Parliamentary Reporter.]
WELLINGTON, July 9.| The Dominion's legislators standready for work. To-night they gotclear of the Address-in-Reply debate.There was nothing remarkable about thefinal stage, unless it were that Mr J.McCombs (Lyttelton) did not speakwhen" he had the chance. Mr S. G.Smith (Taranaki) advertised his pro-vince, and Mr T. E. Y. Seddon (West-land) boosted his own district. Mr AV.T. Jennings (Taumarunui) waved thebanner of Liberalism, and Mr G. Witty(Riecarton) playfully sparred with theGovernment to steady matters down alittle. Mr H. S. Malcolm (Clutha)brought in a touch of imperialism, andMr H. Atmore (Nelson) delivered alecture on economics, but a lecture thatwas never dry. Then Mr F. F. Hoekly(Rotorua), who had moved the Address,replied in a few sentences, the Addresswas passed and hon. members closedtheir desks.
Starch from Potatoes.The Hon. Sir Heaton Rhodes (Elles-
mere) is asking the Governmentwhether, in order to encourage a per-manent demand and a permanent supplyof potatoes, it will place a sum on the
IEstimates to provide a bonus for themanufacture of starch from potatoes.
Lyttelton Harbour Erosion.Dr H. T. J. Thacker (Christchurch
East) has given notice to ask the Min-ister of Marine (Hon. Sir WilliamHerries) whether his department knowsthat land at Officers' Point, Lyttelton,is being washed away. Dr Thackerstates that this land has been reclaimedat great cost.
Distribution of Sugar.Replying to a question asked to-day
by Mr W. E. Parry (Auckland Central),the Hon. E. P. Lee (President of theBoard of Trade) said that the Govern-ment, in distributing sugar, would, of
! course, have to provide some margin toI meet slight contingencies. He had notthe exact figures as to what that marginwould be, but it would be a mere frac-tion per lb. The Government notgoing to make a profit on sugar.
A "Freezing Chamber."To-day, Mr L. M. Isitt (Christchurch
North) drew the attention of the Post-master-General (Hon. J. G. Coates) tothe perishingly cold state of the Christ-church Parcels Post Office on somewinter days. Mr Coates said that hewould inquire into the position, and, ifhe found that what was stated wascorrect, some steps would be taken toimprove matters.
Revision of Standing Orders.The House is to be given an oppor-
tunity of revising it's Standing Ordersthis Session. Replying to-day to MrJ. R. Hamilton (Awarua), the PrimeMinister (Rt. Hon. W. F. Massey) statedthat he had already conferred with MrSpeaker on the subject. He agreed thatthere was particular need for revisionof the Standing Orders, especially in thedirection of avoiding wasting of timein debate. (Hear! Hear!)
Mr A. S. Malcolm (Chairman of Com-mittees) speaking later, recommendedthat alterations should be made in thedirection of increasing the generalpowers of private members. To-day,
I private members had little or no power.He thought that the time had arrivedwhen hon. members should have suf-ficient confidence in themselves to pro-vide that the Standing Orders gave themsuch powers to initiate and carrythrough legislation, as they were en-titled to do.
America and the War.A defence of America's late entry
into the War was forthcoming from MrT. E. Y. Seddon (Westland), in thecourse of the Address-in-Reply debatethis evening. Mr H. Atmore (Nelson)had just sat down, after observing thatthe United States, which had once beensaid to be first in war and first in peace,had this time proved to be last in warand last in peace.
Mr Seddon asked the hon. memberfor Nelson to consider the conditionsobtaining in America prior to the War,and prior to her entry into the War. Ifhe did that, he would perhaps admitthat it was greatly to America's creditthat she came in at all. When onerealised how mixed the population was,and the inducements there had beenfor her to keep . out of the AVar,as compared with the inducementsthat Great Britain had to gointo the AVar, one realised how diffi-cult it must have been for the Ameri-.can people to make up their minds.AA'hen they did make up their minds,they had done good work. Then, as toPeace, when President AVilson returnedfrom A7 ersailles, he was likely to be-come a very famous man. Politicaljealousy—and that alone—had pre-vented him from attaining his object.Now another presidential election waspending, and Mr Seddon was convincedthat America would come arc id to theright way of thinking and prove astaunch ally.
"Six Months' Hard.""I do not know how long the Session
is going to last," said Mr T. E. Y. Sed-don (Westland) to-night..
"Six months," said Mr Massey."It sounds like a sentence," plain-
tively replied the AVest Coaster.Mr Massey: I have no doubt vou de-
serve it.Hon. C; J. Pa.r: It might reform him!Mr Seddon: No! You will.never dothatl
Duty on Sporting Goods.The Canterbury athletic organisations,stated Mr D. G. Sullivan (Avon), in a
question this afternoon, asked for theremission of the Customs duties onsports plant and appliances. A\7as theMinister of Customs, he asked, preparedto do anything in that direction?
The Hon. Sir AVilliam Herries repliedthat it would hardly be just to remit theduties on sporting "material, when therewas so great a demand for the remis-sion of duties on the necessaries of life.
Dr H. T. J. Thacker (ChristchurchEast): Sporting material is necessary tolife. You can't have good soldiers un-less you have sports.
Sir AVilliam Herries said he recognisedthat sports trophies were now ad-mitted free, and he would have in-quiries made, and let the hon. memberknow the opinion of his departmentalofficers.
More About Potatoes.Further questions about potatoes have
been asked in the'House. This after-noon, Dr H, T. ,1. Thacker (Christ-church East) said that the potato cropin Canterbury had been very prolificand very free from blight. He had him-self sent a telegram to the Premier ofNew South WaleH, who, in turn, hadsent it (in to the Prime Minister ofAustralia. Mr Hughes had replied tothe telegram to the effect that the em-bargo could not be removed, owing tothe danger of introducing into Aus-tralia the disease known as "powderyscale," aud owing to the need for theprotection of the Australian potato in-dustry. Farmers in Canterbury, said'>r Thacker, had been exhorted to grow
as many potatoes as possible, and nowthey were left with the prospect of get-ting £3 a ton for them, whereas if theycould export their potatoes to Australia,they could get £l4 10/- a ton. He sug-gested to the Prime Minister that heshould act in conjunction with theleader of the Labour Party in the House,and get into touch with the LabourPremier of New South Wales, with aview to having the embargo removed.
The Prime Minister (Rt. Hon. W. F.Massey) said that the embargo hadbeen imposed, not by the State Govern-ment of New South AVales, but by theFederal Government.
Dr Thacker: The State Governmentcould force the thing. It is only atrivial little matter.
Mr Massey said that he did not agreeas to this. If the Federal Governmenthad made up its mind not to allow ourpotatoes to bo imported, it would bedifficult for the New South Wales Go-vernment to do anything. He had maderepeated representations on the matterto the Australian Government, but with-out success. He had a great deal ofsympathy with the potato growers intheir predicament, and if there wasanything that he could do more forthem he would be very glad to do it.
Dr Thacker: The Labour Party herecould help you.
Mr Massey: I think the Mayor ofChristchurch should go over there andpresent the position from the point ofview of Canterbury.
Soldiers' Land Ballots. -
A question affecting returned soldierswas put to the Minister of Lands (Hon.D. H. Guthrie) by Mr R. McCallum(AVairau), who asked whether therewere any insuperable difficulties in theway of letting applicants for soldiersettlement sections know, in case oftheir applications being refused, thereason for the refusal. Mr McCallumsaid that he could understand that theremight be reasons for withholding thisinformation, but, as the matter was onegiving concern to returned soldier ap-plicants for land, he thought it wouldbe well for the Minister to make a state-ment on it.
The Minister, said that it was not thecustom of the department to makiknown the reasons for the refusal of an\application, and the-reason was that itwould involve publication of detailsabout an applicant that might not bein his interests. He approved of thispolicy, for certainly he did not approveof the publication abroad of informationthat might not be in the interests ofsoldier applicants. The soldiers comingbefore the board to apply for land knewthat they had to give certain -informa-tion concerning themselves, and theywere always given to understand thatthis information was to be treated as
I confidential.

From the plan onthe certificate'it would seem that this riverwas, at the time of the grant, in actual con-tact with the defendant's lands, but theevidence showed that tiic river had gradu-ally changed its course, and that the actualstream was now, in some places, some dis-tance away from defendant's lands. Thedefendant's predecessor in title had fencedin an area of about eight acres of the landoutside the original boundary, and thisfence was shifted 1back to the original posi-tion by the defendant when lie purchasedthe land. On this eight acres. Californian
I thistles were growing, and the charge was■ that defendant had failed to clear thistles,and thereby bad committed an offence underthe provisions of the Noxious Weeds Act.Defendant contended that his fence was onthe true boundary of his land, and he wasnot liable to clear noxious weeds that maybe growing outside his fence. It was un-important for the purposes of the case todetermine the exact position of the bound-ary of the defendant's land, because some,
i and possibly all, of the land in respect ofwhich the charge was laid, lay between theexisting fence, and what was at the timeof the grant, the middle of the river, assum-ing that the river was then in actual contact
| witli the land. Although in some cases theI common law presumption of ownership mnybe rebutted, there was nothing in defen-dant's title, or in the evidence before him,Jo rebut the presumption that ownership otthe land, which was bounded by a non-navigable river, included the ownership ofthe, soil of the bed of the river up to themiddle line. The defendant would there-fore be convicted and fined 12, and orderedto pay costs.

BOXING.DEMPSEY AND CARPENTIER.WILL NOT MEET THIS YEAR.
By Cable —Press Association— Copyright.Australian and JV.Z. Cable Association.
(Rec. July 10, 1.0) NEW YQRK, July 8.Kearns, Curley, Carpentier, Deschamps
-and Brady held a conference -with theaim of arranging a contest betweenDempsey and Carpentier. The confer-ence did not result in any decision, andit is virtually certain that no bout canbe staged before 1921. The outstandingfacts were as follow:—Kearns said thatDempsey would fight in no place but theUnited States. Brady, who representsCochrane, pointed out that the contractbetween Cochrane and Carpentier untilJanuary 1, 1921, precludes any meetingbetween Dempsey and Carpentier untilthe new year, unless under Cochrane'spromotion, and Cochrane desires to stagethe battle in Europe. Deschamps saidthat Carpentier would gladly meetDempsey in Paris or London in Novem-ber or ' December. Curley, who hadarranged a bout between Carpentier and"Battling" Levinsky for October, 19:20,refused to release both men, althoughKearns offered a handsome bonus.Kearns said he would therefore awaitthe outcome of the Levinsky battlebefore arranging a bout between Demp-sey and Carpentier.
TRANSFER OF LICENSES.AN INTERESTING CASE.
Press Association,HOKITIKA, July 10.
The Westland Licensing Committeeyesterday granted an application byThomas Foster for a new accommoda-tion license at Wataroa, South West-land.
Mr Murdoch, counsel for the appli-cant, referred to the published remarksof Mr L. M. Isitt, M.P., in the Houseof Representatives, dealing with thesubject of transfers of licenses beyondthe statutory limit. Counsel contendedthat he was relying upon a statutoryprovision, the drafting of which hadbeen specially referred to a prominentProhibition leader and a solicitor. Thisamendment of the Act was so framedthat it permitted a licensing committeeto supplant a license dropped at one endof a licensing district to another part,irrespective of distance, and the partyresponsible for the 'framing of theStatute should be the last to complainof its effect.
A petition was presented, supportedby all the residents of South Westland,together with a number of tourists whorecently visited the Waiho Glacier.
MATAMATA HOTEL CASE.-■- ■■»...■
ACCOMMODATION LICENSEREFUSED.
Press Association.TAURANGA, July 10.
After a lengthy hearing, the TaurangaLicensing Committee, at 10.30 last night,refused the application of A. Montgom-ery for an accommodation license atMatamata. The case created consider-able interest, owing to the methodadopted to secure the transfer of alicense over a greater distance than one
I mile, namely, from Maketu, in the Bayof Plenty, to Matamata.
At the annual meeting of the commit-ttd on June 10,, an application wasmade, and granted, for the renewal ofthe Maketu license. At the same meet-ing, an application was made for alicense at Matamata, but, there beingthen no license vacant, the applicantsought, and secured, an adjournment ofthis application for one month. In themeantime, by the non-payment of thefee, the Maketu license was allowed tolapse, so that, when the Matamataapplication came before the committeeon Thursday last, there was then alieense available.
The chairman of the committee, MrW. G. K. Kenrick, S.M., announcing thedecision of the majority of the commit-tee, said that the application wasrefused, on the grounds that the com-mittee thought that there was alreadysufficient accommodation in Matamata,and that there was no necessity for alicense. Each party was ordered to payits own costs.
It was stated, in evidence, that, sincethe application was first made, a build-ing had been erected at Matamata, at acost of about £4OOO. This building isinside the brick area, and, as it has notbeen constructed in brick, it has now,under agreement with the MatamataTown Board, to be moved outside thebrick area.

PROFITEERING CASES.PARTIES NOT SATISFIED.CROWN AND D.I.C. LODGE
APPEALS.
Appeals have been lodged by theGovernment and the by the General andDrapery Importing Co., Ltd., in respectto the decisions of Mr S. E. McCarthy,S.M., given on June 28 in connectionwith the profiteering charges. TheD.I.C. was fined £SO for the sale of agirl's raincoat at an unreasonably highprice (45/-). and charges laid againstfive Christchurch hardware firms con-cerning the price of "Big Ben" alarmclocks were dismissed. Two chargesof counselling to commit the offence ofprofiteering (in alarm clocks), laidagainst a Wellington firm, were alsodismissed.
The appeal in the case of the D.I.C.is set down to be heard in the SupremeCourt, Christchurch, on August 4, butthis is a tentative date.
D.I.C. CASE.The following are the grounds for
appeal in the D.I.C. case:—(1) That the conviction was errone-
ous both in point of fact and law.(2) That there was no evidence upon
which the"Magistrate could find that thegoods offered for sale were so offered ata price which was unreasonably high.
(3) That the evidence showed thatthe price at which the goods wereoffered for sale was not unreasonablyhigh.
(4) That the Magistrate misdirectedhimself as to the true construction andmeaning of Section 32 of the Board ofTrade Act, 1919, inasmuch as he heldthat the section required him to isolateeach article sold or offered for sale, andto determine whether such article, byitself, and without reference to thebusiness in which it was sold, or anyother circumstance, was sold, or offeredfor sale, at an unreasonably high price,and, further, that the section requiredhim to disregard the fact that thearticle offered for sale was part of arange of samples, and that, accordingto the ordinary course and custom ofthe trade, it was proper to price somearticles higher than others, to compen-sate for the certainty, or extreme pos-sibility of having to sell other articlesin the range of samples at a loss, or atan unprofitable price.
(5) That the Magistrate wrongly heldthat there was no evidence that theprice of the article offered for sale wasfixed in accordance with any tradecustom or usage. On the contrary,there was uncontradicted evidence thatthe price was so fixed.
(6) That, on the evidence, the de-fendant company was not guilty of anoffence against Section 32 of the Act.
The appeal by the Government willbe iu regard to a point of law, and MrMcCarthy has been asked to state thecase. •

The area iTowspecified as included in the district con-sists of the whole of the counties ofSprings and Ellesmere. .■
A Tress Association message fromDunedin states that at the court-martialin the case of Arthur G. McCarthy,charged with desertion, it was submittedfor tiie defence that no court-martial inNew Zealand had heretofore been aßkedto convict a person of desertion in theabsence of a Gazette notice. In additionaccused did not receive special notice toattend for examination. Counsel sub-mitted that the verdict of the Courtshould be one of acquittal. The weak-ness of this case was that accused wasmerely under an obligation to serve, butno service from which he could deserthad been required of him. The Courtreserved its decision.
At the Lyttelton Magistrate's Courtthis morning, before Messrs W. T.Lester and F. G. Norton, J.P.'s, ThomasYule was charged with drunkenness onNorwich Quay last evening and withusing indecent language. Accused saidthat he was drunk and olid not remem-ber anything of the occurrence.

BRITISH OVERSEAS TRADE.(A. & N.Z.) LONDON, July 8.
Mr F. G. Kellaway, representing the Over-seas Trade Department of the Board ofTrade, addressing a representative assem-blage of British exporters, said that,with-out a great overseas trade, Great Britaincould neither clothe nor feed tyer people.The effect of the War on her overseas tradehad been revolutionary and disastrous. Itwas only by the restoration of such tradethat Great Britain could hope to resume herposition in the world.
While he did not under-estimate the partthat America and Japan had played in theWar, he said those countries had been ableto secure markets which once were thomonopoly of Great Britain. However, sincethe Armistice, the progress made by Britishindustry was such as they might be proudof. IIn the first Ave months of this year theexports were within 20 per cent, of thevalue of the exports (lining 1913, and thepercentage of exports to Europe had ex-panded from 33 to 48. ' But there had beena reduction in British exports to countriesoutside of Europe. They looked with hopetowards the Empire's markets. He urgedexporters to use their resources to satisfythe Imperial markets.
Sir Thos. Mackenzie said the experienceof the past had shown that? the Americanswere more adaptable in conforming to thewishes of their colonial, customers thanBritish manufacturers. He hoped, to see alarger measure of preferential 'treatmentevolved.

THE THEATRES."SLEEPING BEAUTY" PANTOMIME.
A GORGFOFS PRODUCTION.
This afternoon saw the first performancenf the big .1. ('. Williamson Pantomime pro-duction, "The Sleeping Beauty." which willlie played again this evening and nightlynt 15 minutes to X. "Few theatricalattractions interest Hie public so deeplyas a pantomime." writes a prominentcritic. "Of the J. C. Williamson panto-mime 'The Sleeping Beauty' -there canhardly be two opinions. It is a distinctsuccess from every point ol" view. In moditii pantomime production on the big scalethere is generally a temptation lo sacrificeeverything to splendid spectacle the temp-tation has been avoided. The 'SleepingBeauty' is spectacular enough -gorgeouslyso- but it is packed with wholesomehumour. It is full of the fun that childrencan understand, and healthily assimilate.but it is largely touched by modern artis-try. What a Prince Charming Miss Wini-fred Roma makes--enough to electrify anyyoung susceptible Princess —especially suchn one as is depicted by Miss Eve Lynn.These two never let the business they areconcerned in slacken for a moment. Againthe J. C. Williamson management havebeen rortunate in securing probably one ofthe best Dames on the stage to-day in Mi-Marriott Edgar. As servants of the palace.Uie Brothers Egbert keep the house in aroar; anything more funny than theirspecialty 'Spring Cleaning' it would he diffi-cult to conceive. Another splendid expon-ent of comic pantomime art at its best isMr George Welch, whose 'King Ponipos' isan entirely entertaining performance. Outof an extraordinarily long cast shines resplendent Miss Maggie Dickinson—aspremiere danseuse. her dancing in themuch-discussed 'Fox and Pheasant' ballet,when partnered by Mr Sidney Culver, isworth going a day's journey to see. Otherartists of importance are Miss Mione Stew-art, who gives Agatha a full significance;Miss Dorothv Seacombe as Beautv, MissAdelaide Lester as Wit, Margaret SutcliiTeas Fairy Malevolence, and Messrs HerbertLeigh and Stanley Oilgers as the PrimeMinister and SolicitoMieneral respectively,all fill their roles satisfactorily. In thematter of scenic splendour and wonderfulcostuming the J. C. Williamson manage-ment have spread themselves with prodigalgenerosity." The box plans fur the nextlive nights and next Wednesday's matineeare now open at The Bristol.
OPERA HOUSE."The Picnic Party" is the title of the hilar-
ious comedy which occupies the boards atthe Opera House on the second half of 'thecurrent programme. The Walter GeorgeSunshine Players appear,, and catchymusical numbers and screamingly funnycomedy are the results of their labours. Thevaudeville bill is headed by the Two Fishers,who present a novelty acrobatic turn. Otherartists are:—George Ross, "tops,y-turvy"pianist; Nora Burke, popular vocalist; ArtoisBros., triple bar acrobats; and Lc Mounicr,famous athlete and strong man, whose lastappearance in Christchurch will take placethis evening.
EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.One more noted character of fiction has

This timeit is Maurice le Blanc's creation, ArseneMipin, who appears as the hero of a Para-mount Artcraft special attraction, "TheTeeth of the Tiger," which will be dis-played at Everybody's Theatre next week.Interpreting the role of Lupin is David,Powell, a finished actor, who is said to biffwell equipped physically and histrionicallyto play the part convincingly. His chiefsupporting player is Marguerite Courtot,long a favourite with picture-goers. MyrtleStedman and Templar Saxc have prominentroles also.

He succeeds in his task,<inly after several exciting adventures, intowhich an atmosphere of mystery and apleasing love story have been woven. Inaddition to the above feature there is astrong supporting programme, including thelatest Paramount Artcraft comedy, entitled"A Widow by Proxy," starring MargueriteClark.

STRAND THEATRE.The scene, of ‘‘The. Wilderness Trail” (Tom
Mix), which will head the now programmeat the Strand Theatre, is laid in Canada,in the Hudson Bay region, a land of
j measureless snows. Donald Mactavish, sonof Robert Mactavish, who is head commis-sioner of the Hudson Bay Company, hascharge of one of the company’s trappingcamps. Old Angus Fitzpatrick, domineer-ing, vindictive, jealous and cunning, is
. Donald’s superior. Old JVngus hates theelder Mactavish because, Though they startedlife together, Mactavish has been promoted(ahead Of him. His hate turns against Don-laid, and, to hurt the father, he connives inthe disgrace of the sop, Donald is hi lovewith .leanne, daughter of Angus, but the oldman forbids even friendship between them.A quantity of rich furs has been stolenfrom Donald’s district, and old Angus, see-ing a chance to vent his jealousy, holdsDonald responsible, and tells him to recoverthe furs or be hanged as a. thief. To vin-dicate Ins honour and prove his innocence,young Mactavish goes alone “on the wilder-ness trail” to search for the furs. He. findsthe furs, but is captured by the so-calledfree traders, men who hunt or trap withoutdefinite allegiance to any company, dispos-ing of their catch to the best advantage. AtFitzpatrick’s post are «m old squaw, Mary,and half-breed son, Sergius, who also Is inlove wi in Joanne. Ambitious for her son,the old mother sends him to become headof the free traders, and she kidnaps Jeannethat lie may have a pretty wife. Donaldescapes from the thieves and finds the stolenJeanne in a deserted cabin, left there bySergius in custody of two men. Doifhldattacks and kills the two. Meanwhile theold squaw returns to Angus and inflameshim with the lie that it..was Donald whokidnapped Jeanne, and that Donald 'hasjoined the free traders. Burning with rage,Angus starts for the free traders’ camp,expecting to find Donald. Exciting incidentscrowd upon each other from this point untilfinally Fitzpatrick relents and Jeanne cele-brates her marriage with Donald. The sup-porting hill is a very attractive one. "
CRYSTAL PALACE. ’
The current programme at the CrystalPalace, headed by “A Daughter of theWolf,” will he screened finally to-night.' Amost diversified and interesting programmewill he presented next week. The first at-traction on the list is a Paramount featurehearing the title of “Tile Home Town Girl,”starring Vivian Martin, who. by her art andsweet personality, invests all her characteri-sations with a winsomeness and charmwhich render them" delightful. Her latestParamount picture, “The Home Town Girl,-*’proves no exception to the rule. The storyconcerns a hrax’C young girl’s constancyunder trying circumstances; of the splendidstimulus she gives to the man she loves,urging him on to liner achievements, helpinghim when lie stumbles and falls. In short,“The Home Town Girl” depicts a type de-lightful in itself and most consistently thatof the bright young girl of to-day. VivianMartin characterises the rote admirably andplays it with both intelligence and feeling.The second feature in the bill is one whichstars the popular actor, William Russell, inthe part of Jack Woodford, a young million-aire, who knows the Sherlock Holmes storiesbackward. The picture has the title of “TheMidnight Trail,” and the extraordinaryadventures of Jack Woodford, ns a million-aire detective, form .the basis of a mostentrancing story, which practically resolvesitself Into a comedy of crooks and cross-purposes, with a most entertaining finale—-a picture decidedly out of the ordinary, andone which keeps the interest alert from theopening scene to the final “close-np.” Fur-ther items in this generous programme arethe enthralling serial, “The Grey Seal”; afcpmedy, “Sweodie the Swatter”; a two-Tnousand feet drama, “The Rustlers’ Frame-tip”; and a Topical Budget.
GRAND THEATRE.There will be a complete change of pro-
gramme at the Grand Theatre to-day, whenthe principal picture will be, “The GreyWolf’s Ghost,” featuring H. B. Warner ina dual role. The story describes the life ofa strong man who had to face a suspiciousworld, -and a treacherous father’s past.The play has been founded on Bret Hartc’sfamous story of the man who played a lonehand in the Great South-West, where mendied with their boots oil. It is said to be
a thrilling story of romance, love, anddaring, and xvell worth seeing. On Mondaythere will be another change of programme,when the much-discussed “Mind the PaintGirl,” featuring Anita Stewart, will beshown for the first time in this city.American journals speak very highly ofthis feature, and if has had a very big run’in the North Islam).
QUEEN'S THEATRE.There will be a complete change of pro-
gramme at the Queen's Theatre to-day. Thenew bill will be headed by "A Daughter ofEve," in which appears the fascinating star,Violet Hopson. The supporting programmeincludes another chapter of the serial,"Liberty." and a comedy, "Spliced andIced." The plot x>f "A Daughter of Eve" isas follows:—Jessica Bond, the beautifuldaughter of John Bond, is in love withSydney Slrangcway, the nephew of herfather's friend, Sir Hugh Strangeway. TheOnly "fly in tile ointment" is the constantI interference of Sir Hugh's other nephew,*Charles. Sydney is dismissed, and forbiddento see Jessica, by bis uncle, who disapprovesof his happy-go-lucky, nonchalant way.Meanwhile, Jessica, although still true to theold love, is hustled into a marriage of con-venience with Lord Barrymore, a middle-aged but wealthy man. Barrymore does allhe can to make Jessica happy, but with noresult. Their Italian holiday is brought toa sudden termination by Jessica's ill-health,and she is obliged to return to London,where she accidentally meets Sydney, whoaccepts her invitation to dinner. Sympathyis aroused in -Jessica for Sydney's uncom-fortable position with his "bookie," and sheforces him to accept a loan of £SOO. Charlesmurders his uncle, and successfully throwssuspicion on Sydney, who is arrested. Theevidence is all against him, particularly aslie is unable to explain where he obtainedthe £,r )0fl with which he settled his debt tothe bookmaker, and further he will not stalewhere he was at the time of the murder.He still holds Jessica's honour dearer thanhis own life. Jessica, recovering from anervous break-down in the country, is horri-fied to see in the first newspaper she isallowed to read, that Sydney has beencondemned to death. The paper is two daysold. She makes a mad rush car, andspeeds in the direction of the prison, toarrive apparently tno late. There is a start-ling and dramatic climax to the story.
LIBERTY THEATRE.A Triangle special feature, "Prudence on
Broadway," a comedy of quaint charm andpleasing entertainment, is the chief attrac-tion at the Liberty Theatre to-day. OliveThomas, famous "Harrison Fisher Girl," isthe bright amf particular star of "Prudenceon Broadway," playing the part or a sweetanddemure little Quakeress, and has plentyof opportunities for displaying her engag-ing personality and acting abilities.Prudence's father sends her to a fashion-able boarding school in New Yprk to "meetand conquer the devil." She is leader ofthe parties and escapades at college, andteachers her chums a lesson in demureness.The most' exciting part of the picture iswhen Prudence cleverly turns the tables ona jaded New Yorker and catches him inhis own trap. The picture is said to bewell produced under the direction of FrankBorzage, splendidly acted, and offers a storythat is full of delightful humour andromantic incidents. The story, which is ofthe popuar type, is from the pen ofCatherine Carr. author / of several suc-cessful screen stories. A large cast ofweil-kiiown players includes I'rancis Mc-Donald, Harvey Clark, Mary Warren, ClaireMcDowell,, and others. The supportingjtems include several short films of interest,including Pathe Gazette and Topical, aPoppy comedy "Foxy Ambrose," starringMack .Swain, "Kinema Travel Series" and"Across the Great Salt Lake." Vocal itemswill be given by Miss Eleanor McKenzie, apopular contralto from London.
GERTRUDE JOHNSON RETURNS.Miss Gertrude Johnson and the' brilliant
company of artists supporting her havebeen induced to pay a farewell visit to-Christchurch. The company will appear atthe Choral Hall on Thursday evening. MissJohnson made her chief successes in theDominion early in the present year in"Lucia di Lammermoor" and "Rigoletto."The sensation she created everywhere in thecountry will still be remembered. Audi-ences were aroused to the highest pitch ofexcitement by her work, and she flew intoa popularity as rare as it is well deserved.Miss Johnson has had an interesting career.She told a Christchurch interviewer inJanuary last: "My chance came three yearsago. Signor Balhoni and Count Filipinitook an opera company to Queensland, and 1was engaged as prima donna to sing in•Rigoletto,* 'Traviata,' and 'Pagliacci.' ThenJust a year ago the Rigo Opera Companystarted, and 1 was prima donna, and sangIn 'Lucia,' 'Rigoletto,' 'Faust,' and'Bohemc.' When I was 16 Dr Vagarra, theconductor of the Quinlan Opera Company,heard me sing, and promised that if I keptmy figure I should succeed." Mr HoraceHunt will play several works of his owncomposition at the forthcoming concert.He has the rare gift of interpretation which
some of the great pianists just fail to ac-quire, and in that sense alone is entitled tothe popularity that is his. Ail who haveheard Me Hunt hear witness to the sympa-thetic treatment.that music receives at hishands. Mr Russell, the flautist of the com-bination, has the happy manner of anartist used to the applause of great audi-ences. He plays the most popular of wood-wind instruments to the manner born. MrRussell will play several obbligatos to thesongs of Miss Johnson. The box plan willopen at The Bristol on Tuesday.

BOXING.CANTERBURY CHAMPIONSHIPS.Long •waits between bouts distin-
guished the first part, held in KingEdward Barracks last evening, of theChristchurch Sports Club's Canterbury-Boxing Championships Tournament. Thespectators, of whom there was not agreat number for a boxing tourney,were good-humoured, but their patiencewas sorely tried by the delays. Oncethe referee, Colonel R. A. Chaffey, wasconstrained to point out to the audiencethat he was not responsible for thetraits. On that occasion he left theting to try to hurry up the contestants.However, the spectators consoled them-selves for the delays, and for the dull-ness of the evening generally, with thereflection that the finals, this evening,should be much more enlivening.
Last evening 'a bouts resulted asfollow:
Featherweight!.C. Chisnall, Bst 121b, beat J. T. Arm-
Strong, Bst 111b. Chisnall was too cleverami experienced for his youthful opponent,Snd hurt him with jabs to the body andcrosses and hooks to the jaw. Armstrong,however, was full of pluck. Chisnall hadjiim rattled in the first round, but fought a
* bit wildly In the second, and was unableto put out his gritty opponent. At the endof the second round the referee stopped theLout and awarded it to Chisnall. Arm-Strong was applauded heartily for hispluck.
W. Watt (Dunedin), Bst 911b, beat G. Mc-Donald, Bst 111b. With the first sound ofthe gong McDonald dashed out of hisCorner, nnd started a hurricane attack. Wattresponded, and the pair soon tied them-selves in such a tangle that the referee hadto hop Into the ring and separate them
find warn them to "break" when required,t was a wild affray, and it delighted the
crowd. Little bits of wrestling interspersedStrenuous efforts to land punches from allangles and distances. Watt's was a littleThe better, and his evasion of some of Mc-Donald's hurtling rushcsNieJped him.
Lightweights.E. Morris (Kaiapoi), 9st lOJlb, beat 8.-
Guy (Fernside), 9st 131b. It was an un-attractive bout; each man having an awk-ward style. Morris did not show his form
• of a few years back, and had to be warnedfor holding and hitting. In the secondround, however, he rattled Guj- with rightand left hooks to the jaw. There was not adecent straight left In the bout. In the-third round Morris punished his man, andthe referee stopped the bout and awardedIt to Morris.
J. Hetrlck, 9st 101b, beat R. -Pye (Mt.Gxey), 9st 91b. Hetrick waded in from theStart, swinging heartily. Pye'smotheredand bent himself almost to the floor. Re-Earking, "That will do. I want to see some
(xing. Get somebody to teach you," thereferee stopped the thing in the first roundand gave a decision to Hetrlck.
X. Mitchell, not being well, defaulted toF. Musson.
Welterweights.W. J. ttfTom") Long, lOst lib, beat S.
Manard, lOst 4}lb. Long was the taller,and Manard Increased the difference inheight and reach by spreading his feet verywide apart. Manard worked his arms alot, but seldom beat Long's guard or back-move. Long used his left neatly at times,and kept nicely in front in the scoring.
L. J. Farmer, lOst 71b, lost to J. DwyerCAshburton), lOst 21b. Dwyer spent a lotOf energy In swinging, and dancing outOccasionally, and Farmer let him expendSome of it at times on a smother. Just onthe end of the. first round a swing got homeand dropped Farmer momentarily. In thesecond round another right swing sentFarmer to the boards for five seconds,buyer swung very often In the last round,Without landing cleanly, but did enoughattack to win. Farmer was too slow.
Middleweight*.E. Toms, lOst 911b, knocked out L. Blums-
key (Laburn), list 21b. Blumskey showeda better idea of a straight left than any of:the other country boxers seen in the ring'
