London, Aug. 2 CA hitch ap- pears to have developed in the pro- posed arrangements to send 10000 unemployed British miners to assist in the Canadian harvest fields. The arrangements have not yet been ap- proved. but are still under discus- sion.
 The scheme was fully outlined en August 1 and was widely publisheA in British newspapers leading to the belief that the propoaals ai- ready had been ratified but this has proved erronous.

strength of ones convictions is one
OF the most important ingredients
of success.
The new trend should be good news
to the motorists who has deplored
the apparent trend toward stand

Tor every engineer who believes IN
