of the Black Lake Asbestos and Chrome

nouncement that the company mas de-

after a notable boom In these securities
the announcement created some resent

also that the United States Steel Corpo-
ration had failed TO exercise its option
on the Black Lake chrome deposits
since then, however, 1t has been inti-
mated that the steel Corporation will
probably negotiate for lease or the

situation is gradually coming. with
news that the Western crop may reach
10000 900 bushels, as estimated by the
Winnipeg Free Press, and with fixed
price of $2.15. the grain growers
position is improved.
But that does not end the interna-
tional difficulty. A cable despatch from
England at the end OF last week in
dicated degree of restlessness at the
high price of Canadian wheat. With
the declared intention OF the British
Government to resell It's wheat pur-
chases at $1.55 to $3.50 a bushel, there
is in prospect a considerable loss for
the British Government to bear IL 1t
buys wheat from Canada.
AS was stated last week in this cor
respondance, this is a loss that the
British Government would not naturally
bear cheerfully. A solution of the situa-
ton appears to be found in this way !:
There is reason to believe that an effor,
will be made to sell as much OF the
Canadian wheat as possible to neutral
countries In Europe. Several of these
countries are in a good financial posi-
ton. and their immediate payment in
full would have bearing on interna-
tional exchange. II Canada could sch
large part OF its wheat crop to these
nations for cash. 1t would improve this
country's position in New York. and
reduce the present high premium on
American money This. at least. is
the expectation in banking circles here.
Another factor in the near future
on the exchange situation will be the
coming Victory Loan in Canada. While
It is not thought likely that Washing
ton will advance a credit to Canada for
the purpose of stabilizing exchange,
as has been suggested. there may be
action by American financial interests
in buying Victory bonds or in some
other way helping exchange. At any
rate there is no likelihood of initiative
from here. On the other hand, Ameri-
can insurance companies and banks,
which have collected considerable
amounts in Canada through business
dealings. are expected to invest freely
in Victory bonds, rather than send their
money to the United States In the
| face Of heavy adverse exchange. This
will give profitable occupation for the
funds for a time, until exchange i'm
proves. as It naturally would improve
from this and other Investments.

Average Attendance of Quebec In
stitution Less Than 100.

To the Editor Of the Canadian Section Of
THE SUN-Sir: There Is a small school
in the city of Quebec which claims on
behalf of its graduates a remarkable
record in the great war.
The High School of Quebec has had for
years an average attendance OF less than
one hundred pupils. In spite of this 264
OF Its graduates served in the war, 3S of
whom were killed. Among those who
served there were: Promoted to be Lieu
tenant General, /; Major Generals, a;
Brigadier- General. 1; Colonies, s; Majors,
16: knights of the Bath. 8: chevalier
Legion of Honor, /; Victoria Cross. O.;
d. S. o.. s: NJ. C., IT: flying medal. l.
Surely this is record that will take
some beating, even in the public schools
OF the old country.
The old High" is, by the way probably
the oldest English school in the Dominion.
1t was founded In 1904 and has been In
practically continuous existence ever since.
During all this time succession OF boys
has passed through Its classes and into
the world. where a remarkable number
have distinguished themselves. Among
them are such men as Sir Richard Turner.

sense of the original. The song was COM
posed in 1895 by George Etenne Cartier
then young man of 81. who was destined
to become one OF the most illustrious
figures in Canadian history. Cartier was
for some time secretary OF the st. Jean

Spectdt Correspondence to the Cdnudidn
Section Of THE SUN.
MONTREAL, Sept. There is a strong
feeling Of regret among we'll informed
Canadians that the Dominion has been
forced by circumstances (namely, the
absence Of an open wheat market for
fixing price about which there could
be no disputing) into a position of hag-
Cling and even hostility toward the
British Government wheat buyers.
Gables announce that newspapers In
Great Britain are already lecturing Can
ada for her "un-imperial" attitude in
regard to the feeding of the population
OF the mother country, and are dropping
hints of the possibility of bringing in
huge supplies of wheat from Australia
and Argentina, at some sacrifice>of ship
ping efficiency, and thus doing without
the Canadian crop altogether.
They are also complaining of the
demand Of Canada that the largest pos
sible proportion of the crop be milled
here, and are talking as If Canada were
trying to rob Great Britain of her fair
share of mill feed. when the actual sit
uation is that Canada is so short of
mill feed as to have imposed an en-
DarBO on the export Oh tndt article
even to her customary markets in the
United States.
Canadians do not place much faith
in the allegation of vast quantities of
wheat purchaseable in Australia and Ar
gentina at prices far below the North
American quotations. The whole ques-
ton. 1t seems to experts here, is one OF
shipping. Those countries are Obliged
to make very low quotation in order
to have a prospect Of getting any por-
ton of their surplus wheat out at all
owing to the extreme unwillingness OF
the British Ship Control to employ yes
