BRITISH CONFERENCE
ENDS DISCUSSION OF
PROBLEMS OF EMPIRE
(Bv Associated Pressl

LONDON, Aug. 5-The discussion
of the imperial conference will con-
clude today. The report which fin
ally will be adopted covers a consid-
erably wider range than has been in
dicated by the meagre official ac-
counts.
1t is believed the conference adopt
ed a policy Of non-interference, con-
tenting itself with declaring against
the suggestion of special conference
to discuss the matter of affirming the
right Of the dominions to nominate
cabinet ministers to represent their
respective countries in future consul
tations with the British prime min
lister.
The view of the conference seems
to have been in favor of one-power
standard for the empire the dominions
undertaking the defense of their res
pective territories.
Wireless Debate Animated
The discussion of wireless COM
munication revealed some divergence
of opinion. 1t is understood an Aus
tralasian delegate contended vigorous
ly for stations of sufficiently high
power to enable Australia to communi-
cate direct with England, against the
opposing view for more stations of
less power. The latter view is be-
lieved to have gained the day, it be-
ing decided that Great Britain should
complete stations in the territory un-
der her control, while as far as might
be necessary Australia, South Africa
and India, also would erect necessary
stations with New Zealand and Cana
da cooperating in the chain.

The hardluck story of the down-and-

les of events that Craig has lived
within the past few weeks
July Craig's barn, containing his
farm implements, tractor and automo-
bile, burned to the ground. The COM

and burned. The community got to-
gether and moved house from the
James Snyder farm to the site of the
old building.
All of his clothes had been con.
sumed in the fire which burned his
house. So the neighbors took up a
collection and turned over the money
to him for some new clothes.
Saturday evening, Craig in COM
pany with George Miller, went TO
Camden. He bought an extensive ar.
ray of clothing and put it in the
back of the car Then he walked
down the street with Moore.
A few minutes later they returned
The car was gone. Craig's clothes
