TO
GET ANOTHER
NAME CHANGE

MONTREAL, Aug. 29. UP)-The
Royal Canadian Mounted Police,
Canadas colorful police force, may
drop the word mounted" from
their title and become known as
the Royal Canadian Police"
Addressing the International As
sociation for identification at a
convention here, Sir James Mac
Brien. commission of the R.CM.P.
said the force has been so greatly
modernized that the word mount
ed" means little today.
when 1 joined it as recruit, it
was known as the Northwest
Mounted Police" Sir James said.
Later the name Of the force was
changed to the Royal Northwest
Mounted Police. And now it is sad
TO realize that some day our name
may bee hanged again TO drop the
word Mounted
"Out OF our force of 1000 men
we have only 300 mounted now. we
have many more dogs than we nave
horses, and most of onr men now
travel in automobiles, airplanes OF
boats"
In future. he added, recruits to
the force will not be trained IN
horsemanship except those that are
definitely destined for the mounted
detail. Instead, they will spend
more time in learning the scientific
aspects of police work.

The senator outlined the proceed

legislature and pointed to the dif-
ference in the number of bills fin
ally approved with the stacks in
troduced into both houses as evi-
dence of the work done by legisla-

out.
Legislators worked long and hard
during the recent session, he said,
attendance at floor sessions and in
committees forcing them to work
frequently as long as IL to 16
hours day.
He discussed several of the ma
jor bills and explained his stand on
them, giving his reasons for sup
porting or opposing them, and paid
a tribute to the fine work done in
the assembly by Asseliblyman Clar-
ence Walker of this county.

LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 80 U.H -
Greatly depIeted pig supplies in the

cording to A. E. Anderson, state

Markets have doomed to highest
levels in five years or more. Con-
tinued low receipts and sharpened
pork demands from the east were
assigned as the cause for the up

New York Stocks

NEW YORK, Aug %. WR)-
Stocks firmed today in sharply re-
duced volume as many traders left
the street for a holiday over Labor
day
Special issues featured. Motors
were relatively active and strong
Utilities. rails and mercantile shares
made small gains. Oils eased on
reduction in crude in California
and prospect for lower gasoline
prices.
Lack of pressure was seen as in
dieation of improved sentiment af-
ter the recent sl~keout. But in the
absence of many of the larger trad
ers there was no way to determine
if the end of the selling had come.
While most leading shares showed
small gains, the best advances were
in special issues such as paint
company shares, warehousing and
distributing issues and some OF the
leaders. Devoe & Reynolds jump
ed more than 3 points and held
most of the rise, while Glidden
made new 1885 high. Amalga-
mated issues were strong in the
leather division. U. S. Distributing
shares made new highs with the
preferred at one time up nearly 6
points.
Associated Dry Goods preferred
jumped nearly 4 points TO a new
1895 high. Columbia Pictures
touched 10 up 50 and held more
than half the gain. U. S. Smelling
gained points in dull but firm
silver division. yellow Truck pre-
ferred equaleG its high at rs and
then dropped 8 points, while its
common stock was strong at new

Steels Gain
Steel issues were prominent in
the morning. Gains ranged TO 2
points in U. S. Steel preferred.
Prices slipped back from the top
levels but small gains were retain

Shipbuilding issues were in fair
demand, notably Electric Boat which
made a new high at 9 up point.
New York Shipbuilding firmed on
settlement of the strike at its
Camden. N. J. plant. Aviation is
sues made small advances although
in curtailed volume. Coppers. an
other section of the war group,
were steady to firm throughout
the session.
In the oils, losses Of fractions to

Chief interest in the bond mar

1t was believed the news Of As

Immediately to her.
When the royal car swerved on
the Lakeside road, witness told
the United Press, Queen Astrid was
thrown out through a windshield
against a tree.
Besides the fractured skull she
received deep cuts in the chest and
other wounds sufficient to cut ar
terieS and cause death.

about a foot high. 1t was thrown

THE queen and the chauffeur
were catapulted clear off the car.
The queen was thrown into tree

THE king staggered over to his

in the knee, ran haltingly and
painfully for help"
From their villa, 1t was believed
the royal couple intended to drive
for visit to historic Chateau De
Gessler at Kuessnacht, where Will

HOPE IS REVIVED
TO SAVE 1900 JOBS
Federation Of Architects Sees
Prospects of Funds to Keep
Geodetic SURVEY Workers.

Hopes were revived today for some
1900 employees of the Coast and Geo.
detic Survey, 1000 of whom were dis
missed August 4 when funds for their
salaries were exhausted, according to
the Federation of Architects, En-
gineers, Chemists and TechnicianS.
The federation. with headquarters
at BOZ F street, said there is good
prospect that funds will be allocated
Jointly by the Public Works Admin
istration and the Works Progress Ad-
ministration.
Efforts were made first to retain
300 map makers employed here who
faced the loss of their jobs at the
end of this month. This plan was
rejected, it was said, but more favor
able consideration was given the
larger plan because the 1000 men
employed in the field largely came
from relief rolls and returned there
when their jobs ended
The force had ben employed making
surveys of all areas in the United
States that had not been mapped.
The maps are used by several Govern
ment agencies, including the Coast
Guard, Navy Department, Biological
Survey, Tennessee Valley Authority,
U. S. Lighthouse Service and other
Federal units.
The federation called upon r. S.
Patton, director of the survey, today
to make a requisition for the neces-
sary funds to continue the project.

PRESIDENT GIVEN
RAIL PENSION BILL
Senate Passes Measure
Quickly, Sending 1t to
White House.
BY the Associated Press.

Assured of presidential approval,
the rail pension tax bill took its place
in a growing pile on President Roose-
velt's desk today awaiting the pen
stroke that would make it law.
The bill, already approved by the
House, passed the Senate yesterday
without debate.
The second Of two measures in
tended to replace a rail pension law
invahdated by the Supreme Court, it
calls for per cent tax levy on rail-
road wages, the levy to be split equally
between employer and employe.
100000 Workers Affected.
The receipts will be used for pay
ments up to $l20 a month for rail-
road workers who have reached the
age of 65 or who have worked for 80
years. 1t is estimated more than
100000 rail workers will be affected
by the legislation.
Half of the tax bill will be levied
against railroad pay rolls and half
against workers wages. The money
then will be deposited in the Federal
Treasury, which will arrange for pay
met of pc ions under terms of the
companion bill. also awaiting Mr..
Roosevelt's signature. The legislation
will not become effective until next
March.
Senate Works Rapidly.
qeed marked the passage of the
tax measure through the Senate.
After the Finance Committee favor
ably reported the House bill, the Sen
ate acted within few minutes and,
without a record vote, agreed to send
it to the White House.
Before the bill reached the Senate
floor. r. V. Fletcher, general counsel
of the Association of American Rail
roads, told the Finance Committee it
was unconstitutional and asked that
the Senate deliberate further before
acting.
He predicted that railroads would
be faced with deficit Of S2,800,000,-
600 at the beginning of operations Of
the pension plan because many en-
ployes would be eligible for immediate
retirement.
