PEER GIVES UP
FAT PENSION

London, Sept. 2o-Lord Strath-
clyde has astonished the official
world by voluntary relinquishing the
pension of 1850 pounds a year that
was granted him seven years ago
when he retired from the office Of
Lord Advocate for Scotland, where
he was getting 5000 pounds a year.
He is SO years old and declares his
reason for giving up the pension is
that he is unable, owing to weak
health, to take part in the judicial
work of the House of Lords. That
has only increased the surprise his
action has occasioned. Such an .ex-
hibit of public spirit is rare in
deed.
The British government makes
generous provision for the future
welfare of its best-paid office
holders when thy join the ranks of
those who have retired. The speak
er Of the House of Commons has a
salary of 5000 pounds a year; he
may retire whenever he wants to
and enjoy life pension of 1000
pounds year. The Lord Chancel-
lor, who fills a role in the House of
Lords analogous to the speaker of
the House of Commons, receives a
salary of 10000 pounds year and
retired pay of 5000 pounds.

ACCUSE GERMANS OF
POTATO DUMPING

London, Sept. 20-Potato dumping
is the latest accusation made against
Germany by tariff reformers who
for some time have been clamoring
for the imposition of higher duties
against imports from Germany. Not
long ago British farmers were get
ting from 10 to is pounds ton
for their potatoes. Now they find
them drug in the market at prices
as low as 2 pounds.
"The explanation of this fall
says one authority, SIS wholesale
dumping by German and Dutch
growers. The German government
before and during the war, stimulat-
ed the growth of potatoes in order
to provide a reserve of food and al
so for the distillation of alcohol. This
overplus has been thrown on the
British market, the only one which
will admit it without heavy duties,
and it has been sold for what it will
fetch. AS a result the unfortunate
British farmer, is being reduced to
something very near despair, and in
some cases is refusing to market
his crop"

VICE CRUSADE
IN CHINA PROVES
TO Be FAILURE

Shanghai, Sept. 2o.-Shanghai's
experiment, begun some two years
ago, to eliminate commercialized
vice from the International Settle
ment, has been occasioning wide
spread discussion in Shanghai and
elsewhere by reason of recent Off
cial reports that seem to indicate
the belief that the plan adopted
will not work.
The scheme was proposed by a
vice commission. When it was put
into operation the 800 odd estab-
lishments of the International Set
tlement were licensed and the pur-
pose has been to cancel one-fifth
of the mum Der of licenses each year
for period of five years-with
the end that places of the kind
would be wholly eliminated at the
end of the five-year period.
After the scheme has been in op-
Grafton two years its wisdom seem
ingly is questioned in the course
of report lately issued by the
Municipal Council. This report
says the evil and attendant evils
have in no way decreased but
have merely spread over a much
wider area with consequent impos-
sibility of any effective police con
troll"
This elected a swift response
from local moral welfare" forces
The council was asked if it's state
ment meant that the places closed
open again in new quarters in the
Settlement and operate unchecked
and if the police feel themselves un-
able to cope with the situation.
Replying to these questions the
Council said that places
closed, remain closed, but
that nevertheless former Occupants
having no other means of making a
living continue their former lives in
private houses where they are in
no sense subject to police control.

PAsTIME THEATRE

Somewhere, in the complex recess
es Of every human heart, there is a
vibrant, sincere and deeprrooted. quail
ity. 1t is love for dumb animal.
That quality is a lifelong one begin
ming early in childhood with the eager
stretch of soft baby fingers toward
some furry ball of life and ending in
old age with the affectionate Pat Of
withered, wrinkled hand on some
dumb beast whose kindly eyes are
rough caresses are eloquent with un-
spoken lcye. It is a basic quality,
this love common to hanan hearts,
upon which much hangs.
There is no finer sagacity of this
dumb race than the dog. BY sheer
devotion, sagacity and forbearance he
has enshrined himself forever in the
hearts Of all mankind.
From his ranks now comes great
artist-good because he is utterly un-
conscious of his superb playing, I'M
conscious. too, of camera and director.
He is Strongheart, Belgian police dog,
who brings eternal glory to the screen
and to himself in "The Silent Call, :"
which will be shown at the Pastime
theatre next Wednesday and Thurs
day.
1t has remained for the screen to
give the animal actor fair chance;
to rescue him from the unnatural
hoop-jumping, barrel-spinning antics
Of the indoor stage and bring him into
his own in real story amidst God
made sets-gloriously free of the
block and tackle artificialities of man.
Strongheart is star whose virile,
unconscious acting leaves little to be
desired. He gets under your skin
and touches the chords Of deep emo
ton. He sends you away refreshed as
one having visited an oasis in the
monotonous desert Of human enter
tainment. And he makes you glad to
shout in your neighbours ear: "God,
but that dog is magnificent"
