'.The testimony said Senator
Feteher, showed the .ditksrence In
wage cost and su bsistence the
difference in cost Of operation be-
tween vessels Of the United; States
and foreign vessels, was largely a
myth, and If there was a negligible
quantity, when considered along
with the whole enterprise. In other
words, the small percentage of the
difference, would, cut no. material
figure in calculating the profit and
loss Of zach ship. The testimony Of
Mr.. FurGsete and Mr.. Philip Mason
(ship owner) and others established
that clearly. e.
''The truth is American: seamen's
wages are lower than Canada and on
a level with British. The only mari
time power where American wages
are substantially higher is that Of
the Japanese. Crews haYe been re-
duced by order OF the shipping

CURFEW BELLS STILL HEARD

Up and down the country England
has still few towns where the curfew

of the largest bells in England, and on
this the curfew rings ut 5 each night.
Twenty years ago its ringing was
among the functions of the monitors
at the adjoining school, and was a
mueh-prized privilege as we'll as duty

substituted paid ringer for the boys.

Beatrice has twice defied the United

she has been depcrted from the United

placed in cell, but each time she de-
clared she would come back again. and
Zinser each time found her declaration
was only toe true.

border In order that she might journey
to the home city of her adOred one.
