DOMINIONS ASK
ENGLAND FOR
TRADE FAVORS
Restriction on Imports Is
Demanded; u. S. Seems
Safe on Steel.
BY CHARLES NJ. MCANN
United Press stan Correspondent

OTTAWA, Ontario, July "a
Three principal dominions have de-
manded that Great Britain restrict
imports chiefly from the United
States, Argentina and Russia, and
increase imports from Canada. New
Zealand and Australia.
These forcible demands that the
mother country give them prefer
ence in importing meat, wheat, wool.
dairy products wines. base metal.
sugar, fruit and lumber have been
made with the British empire eco
nomic conference only two DAYS old.
Other demands are to follow.
Their very nature is evidence Of
Great Britains foresight in sending
seven of her most capable cabinet
members and more than seventy
assistants to Ottawa to deal with the
trade problems arising here
Willing to Make Concessions
Each dominion is willing, for a
consideration. to make concessions
that will favor British manufac-
lures over those of the United
States.
Each demand, in turn. favors for
its products that would strike at
the empire trade of all the nations
mentioned
The first committee of the confer
ence that on promoting trade with
in the empire, will hold its next
meeting Monday. The demands will
be discussed then
The speeches of Prime Minister
r. B. Bennett of Canada and J. G.
Coates of New Zealand. and the
statement handed the conference
Friday night have given all dele
gates, particularly those of Britain,
more than sufficient material for
study
Though in the multiple proposals
by dominion delegates, the United
States will be affected in some de-
gree, there are formidable natural
obstacles in the way.
u S. Favored on Steel
An instance is the effort to stimu-
late British steel exports to Can
ada. Distance and identity of speci-
flcations, types of material and ways
of doing business favor the United
States
OF the articles mentioned by the
dominion chiefs, meat is expected
to be the most important.
Australians say that Stanley
Bruce, leader of their delegation, is
willing to compromise on every
thing. but that he will insist that
Britain in some way concede ef-
fective special treatment for meat.
Bruce is said to favor arbitrary
limitation of the Argentine export
to England as the most practical.
because he feels that England can
ask Argentina, as close friend Of
the family, to share in a market
which is limited to Britain's con-
Stunning capacity.
Investments Are Great
Against this is the factor of Greab
Britain's investments in Argentina.
greater even than in Canada.
Bruce's statement was strong
one, but there rs talk that Coates
will make stronger ones before the
conference goes much further.
American experts believe that the
conference delegates as a whole are
determined to work out a series OF
agreements that will stimulate. in
some measure, empire trade-and
that they will succeed.
They agree. however. that. so far
as things have gone, there is no
reason for serious worry by Amer

Such Is Fame!

When Harry Frankel was called
from the vaudeville stage, where
he was one of the 1.-TWO Black
BIRDS" to start his radio career
over WLW for a lawnmower con.
Germ, he pondered long and late
over the name he was going to
assume on the air. Finally
"Singin' Sam" suggested itself
and Frankel fell asleep on the
train feeling himself highly orig
inal.
Now he has discovered some
body beat him to the name by
several centuries. He has STUN
bled across rare old print,
vintage of 1850, of Singing Sam
of Derbyshire," a ragged minstrel
who sang his way across England
in the early 1700's. The original
Singing Sam, according to the
print, wore a leather jacket and
let one stocking droop about his
ankle, and played crude instru-
ment consisting of a long stick
with a stuffed bladder supporting
a cat gut which he played like
a bass viol. Frankel dug down
deep into the old check book and
bought the print, which he is
having framed.

one Of the very few really good
sopranos in radio signed off with

Marguerite Cromwell was the
mainstay of that program, make
no mistake on that point. She
possesses that elusive something

an excellent singing voice, is all

that it won't be long before she

LOOMS SHOWS
WORKINGS Of
INSURANCE
By FRANK F. LOOMS

The advantages of establishing
a life insurance estate are clearly
brought out in the following story
of two men:
Mr.. A had an estate valued at
100000. He carried no life IN
surance. He died during a bear
market" and was survived by a
wife and two children. The
family had been. accustomed to
living on a scale Of $4,000 a
year. -.-
Shortly after Mr.. A died, $4,000
was needed for the expenses OF
his funeral and last illness; So,
500 for current bills and in
debtedness, and $500 for admin
istration expenses and taxes, a
total of $4,000.
Lost by Depreciation
A year was required to settle
his estate and during this
period Mrs. A found it necessary
to obtain $4,000 in addition to
the income from the estate for
family living expenses. To meet
these charges, totaling $4,000,
the executor had to sell Securi-
ties which at the time of death
had been worth $4,000, entailing
a loss of $4,000.
When the estate was finally
settled, there remained assets
which had been valued at 5000
when Mr.. A died, but which had
deprecated so as to be worth
only $4,000. The income from
the $40, 900 had also been effected
by adverse business conditions,
dividend cuts, etc, and was not
only uncertain in amount, but
far from adequate for the needs
of the family.
In fact, it was less than one
fifth of the income to which they
had been accustomed.
How Insurance Helped
Mr.. BIS state of affairs was al
most identical with that of Mr.. A
with one exception. Mr.. BIS es-
tate, also valued at 100000, con-
tanned stocks and bonds worth
$40, 900 plus 100000 of life insur-
ance payable to Mrs. B. and his
two children. He likewise died
during "bear market"
His family had been accustomed
to living on a scale of $4,000 a
year. His funeral and last illness
also cost $4,000 and $4,000 was re-
quired for current bills and in
debtedneSS.
However, only $4,000 was needed
for administration expenses and
taxes, a saving of $4,000 resulting
from the fact that the life in
surance was entirely exempt from
probate administration and tax
alton.
Settled Up Quickly
Furthermore. it took but six
months to settle the affairs of
the estate and during this period
Mrs. B found it possible to meet
the family living expenses out of
the insurance money and the in
come from the securities compriS-
ing the estate.
The executor was, therefore,
able to keep the estate intact, and
was not forced to sell any of the
securities at sacrifice during an
unfaVorable market.
