 It is pointed out for the delegates consideration that the dominions as a market for British goods is bound up with the question of immigra- ton.
 The federation of British indus tries, which drew up the prepara- tory reports, admits that Tit is fatal to fall into the error of believing that the dominions are prepared to serve as a dumping ground for the unemployed of this country" State aided schemes of emigration have largely failed, they say. Britain must now turn it's attention to de- veloping the prosperity of he indi- vidual dominions as the best way tc stimulate Empire emigration.

Merton Cricket Club, Philadelphia, Pa, Sept 30 - Let me cogitate. egad. 1 believe we were to say a little something today about who will toss the spheroid for the Athletics tomorrow in the first game of the world series. That reminds me.
 Yesterday on a Philadelphia thor oughfare,< l was accosted by my bosom pal, Lord Leander Beaver benny Depugh. and he would not be appeased until l had consented to bowl a few at the cricket wickets today. Accordingly we repaired to this delightful spot,
 l was not certain I would be re- cognized by the officials of the club, but upon entering the portals of the club, my fears were dissipated. There on the wall was the reproduction of a stirring action scene in the inter- national polo series of 1870, in which Lord Depugh and your correspondent played an important part, aroomph.
 In the picture. Lord Leander is shown behind the stake, while your correspondent is sliding into the wicket with not a little vehemence. AS I recall. l was then a top ser geant in the Coldstream guards. l still remember the cries from the stands as Lord Leander tagged me. It was something 10 cheer about in those halcyon days when Major Hoople was outdone.
 And, oh, yes, cgad, by the way I almost forgot to tell you that MT. Mack has been very careful not to disclose to any of the journalists as sembled here the name of his pitcher for the world series opener. Your correspondent, however, has been informed. Cheerio, then, until the morrow

 Unconfirmed reports said Ameri- can and British residents desired to evacuate Changsha for the wiHter because of the persistent communist menace but that low water in the Slang river had prevented ships from reaching the city.

With the barn of no more use to the company, 1t was decided to sell 1t and have it razed
