PATTERSON WIN
 BEATS FRENCH
Twenty Year Old LacOste Wins
 His Second Victory

BROOKLINE, Mass, Sept. G. Gerald l.. Patterson's fine competitive spirit put Australia safely in the chal- lenge round of the Davis cup when he defeated Jean Borotra, the French ten his captain, G-S, 0-1, 6-3, in the deciding match of the inter-zone final at the Longwood Cricket club today. In the concluding match of the series Rene LaCoste, 2O-year-old Parisian, followed his earlier victory over Patterson by vanquishing Pat O'Hara Wood, 33- year-old Melbourne player, S-1O, 6-1, 6-1, 7-5.
 Lacoste's two victories were the only ones credited to France, so the final re- suit was three matches to two in favor of the Australians. Next week at Philadelphia the Australians will en- gage the cup-defending United States stars. It will be the fifth time in the six postwar series that Australia will have figured in the challenge contests.
 Starting with an Australian lead of two matches to one, the issue today was not long in doubt for Patterson was too steady for his French opponent.
 Patterson did not employ the eau tious tactics that were fatal against LaCoste, but he hit the ball without the carefree abandon that has marked many of his American contests.

CANADA LOSES BOTH
CASH AND ITS PEOPLE

I MONTREAL, June 10-C. Howard
Smith, president of the Canadian
Manufacturers Association, in an
address to the annual convention Of
the association, presented dis
tressing picture of Canadian bust
ness conditions. He denied that the
Dominion's trade had improved in
the last year.
Smith expressed alarm at the in
creasing imports from the United
States and Great Britain, which, he
said, were injuring Canadian manu-
featuring firms and causing unem.
ployment. He lamented the five
tariff reductions since 1919, warned
against the assaults of socialists
and free traders" and called on the
manufacturers to use their influ-
ence toward return to a perma-
nent policy of protection.
Calling attention to the excess of
imports over exports in the trade
balance of Canada and the United
States for the year ending March,
1924, and to the emigration from
Canada, Smith said that the United
States was draining away our cash
and drawing away our people,"
