SCOUT CAMP VISITORS TO
 HAVE TREAT
Special Dinner to Be Serv- ed Those Who Register
 for Sunday Visit

Visitors to Scout Camp at Eagle River next Sunday will be greeted with something different than they have had on Visitors Day in past years, according to Field Executive Harris G. Clark, who was taken to Eagle River yesterday to assume -harge of the encampment.
 An Thu dinner is the form which he treat will take. MT. Clark is, apparently, the only one who knows ust what the Thu dinner is like. Ie will be the cook and waiter tor the meal.
 ] CT IS vegetables and a roast make up most of the meal, which s cooked in the ground for a per- od of several hours. MT. Clark
 Xpects to be up ahead of the sun next Sunday in order to have things ready for the dinner at D. m.
 Parents, business men, anyone interested in visiting the camp are invited to be guests of the Scouts Sunday. In order to know how many will be present for the din- ner, however, it is necessary for those who plan to be at camp by pm. to register in town.
 Names of those who will be at the Scout cabin at that hour should be left with Curtis Shattuck, As sistant Scoutmaster, at the Empire office. All registration must be completed by p. m. Friday so that arrangements may be made for the proper number. Those who do not register will be unable to partake of the Thu dinner, as no allowance will be made for extra visitors.
 A week ago last Sunday, MT. Clark served 60 visitors to the Ket- chikan Scout camp with the Thu dinner, and it made quite a hit with residents of the First City.
 Boys who are at camp now are Bob Simpson, Art Ficken, Tom Redlingshafer, Henry Mead, Dun can Robertson, Milo Peterson, Ted Heyder, Wayne Olson, Spiro Paul ard Ralph Bardi. More Scouts are expected to go to camp later.

CENSUS GIVES D. C.
15,105 QUALIFIED
TO EXERCISE VOTE

Continued From First Page.)
the enumerators, he expressed the
opinion that the inaccuracy could be
easily accounted for-frst, as a result
Of the failure of the enumerators to
ask questions regarding voting, and
secondly, because of the hesitancy of
Government employees to advertise the
fact that they are exercising the
franchise. This, he said, is caused by
the regulation of the Civil Service Com
mission relating to political activity.
COIpoys of Same View.
The same opinion was expressed by
John B. Colpoys, chairman of the
Democratic State Committee of the
District. He said the census figures I'M
doubtedly are not correct and that it is
very easy fer those who have been
identified in getting out the vote in the
District to know why they are wrong.
Chaffee said that during the 1928
presidential campaign Republican head
quarters in Washington furnished in
formation to more than $4,000 persons
by actual count. OF course all those
seeking information regarding ballots
and how TO execute them, he explained,
may not have voted, but it is safe to
claim that SO per cent of them did. In
addition, he declared, there we're many
men and women who voted without
seeking information from either the
Republican or Democratic headquarters.
Chaffee pointed out that while his
headquarters is without definite rec
ord of the absentee vote actually ex-
ecuted in the 1928 campaign, he has
reason TO feel convinced it would total
more than 10000. Many thousands who
sought information at Republican head
quarters, he declared, executed their
ballots either at home or before some
notary public, In which case the local
headquarters have no record of the
votes cast.
Colpoys said records were not kept
at the local Democratic headquarters In
the last presidential campaign, but from
the great number of persons who APP
piled for information and from those
who actually had the ballots executed
there. he had not the slightest doubt
the total number of man and woman
voters in Washington amounted to at
least $1,000.

NEWSPAPER ADS BEST

Sears, Rcebuck to Center Most Of

Newspaper advertising, placed In 54S
newspapers throughout the United
States, will form the backbone Of the
advertising campaign in connection
with the forty-fourth anniversary OBJ
servance of the Sears, Roebuck & Co.
according to G. r. Porter, manager OF
Sears, Roebuck 81 Co., for the Wash
ington district, of which the Washing
ton store is a part.
Porter says there will be other adj
vertising, but that newspapers will be
relied upon to bring the message of the
anniversary campaign to the public
with other forms of advertising simply
rounding out the newspaper campaign
"Our company he declared today,
has always found newspapers the most
productive form of advertising, per dol
lar spent, Of any media which have
been tried. We expect to stick with the
newspapers and expand our expendi-
lures as the business grows to warrant
it."
He pointed out that the concern plans
to spend approximately $4,250,000 this
year in newspaper advertising, in which
expenditure the seven stores in the
Washington area will share with in
creased advertising budgets allowed for
the anniversary event.

LONDON CLASHES
ON CANADA TARIFF
Macdonald Government Is
Urged to Study Steps Taken
In Dominion.
On az Assoelated rress.

~ the Associated Press.
LONDON, September 18.--Contrasting
views are expressed and the economic
gospels Of the metropolitan dailies are
clearly reflected In editorial obssrva-
lions on the Canadian tariff revisions.
The Morning Post today urged the
Macdonald government to study care
fully the steps taken by Premier
Bennett.
Unemployment" the Post says. lis
an evil to be scotched with energy. Mr..
Bennett, having no illusions as to the
close connections between foreign COM
petition and unemployment, has drawn
up tariff calculated to reduce Canada's
unemployed by $4,000 within a short
time. Moreover, instead of going to
Geneva in order to surrender the free
dom of his country, Mr.. Bennett has
taken a bold retaliatory measure of
repaying in their own coin those coun
tries whose tariff policy has excluded
vital Canadian exports.
Test for BeaverbrOOk.
what has Lord Beaverbrook, cru
eader- in chief Of the empire free trade
forces, got to say to that?" asks the
Laborite Daily Herald, that" being the
statement that the Canadian Parlia-
ment is debating a bill which would
confer upon Canada the highest tariff
wall known in her history and barricade
her markets more severely than ever
against British petrol, earthenware and
half a hundred other articles.
George Wood. secretary of the Fedora
tioil of the Wooden and Worsted Trades
describes the new Canadian tariff rates
as "a concealed closing of the gap be-
tween the duties on imports from
Britain and those on imports FROM
foreign countries" The sd valorena
duties, he said in press interview
today. are increased, thus closing the
gap between the prices of imported
articles from different countries after
duties have been paid.
BY addition of a specific duty. says
Mr.. Wood, this gap is closed much
further, and it may easily be. he thinks,
that, in the end, the specific duty will
become more of deterrent to the i'm
portation of British goods than the ad
valorem duty. In fact the secretary of
the woolens federation believes the new
tariff, designed to protect Canadian
manufacturers, will actually have the
effect of giving a disproportionate
impetus to imports Of French and Ger
man manufactures.

Il certainly heard no suggestion of
that sort. As a matter of fact. they
would be the last people to contribute
to my campaign. remember Mr.. Whit
