STEVENS ,OR Tuesday night Caren. 4s hall was packed by a crowd assembled from every paint of ,S'o'ulth 'Huron to hear Hon. H. H. 'Stevens, Minister of ITracle and Commerce; Conservatives, U.F•IO.'s and Liberals were present, Showing the keen .interest being taken in the election. Coll, H. B. Combe, of Clinton, president of the South Hu- ron Conservative ,Association, presid- Mrs. Hlolward Fallie of Peterboro urged agricul't'urists to hetlp retain the wider markets provided .by the Con- ference. 'the candidate, Mr. Louis Rader, described himself as a farmer and his children' ,are fanmers, He expressed regret et the death of the hate Mhos. McMillan, who' y as a farmer. Mr. Ra- der has been in public 'life twelve years. ]Hon. Mr. Slttveln,s opened with a tri- bute.Vo the late Mr. McMillan, for rwholm he had felt a high regard. In this .connection Mr. Stevens nibs nved that he .could almost count on his fin- g ers those at present in the House of 'Comimons who were there 'when, he first entered parliament twenty years ago. ,al' ,elaeleo.ennteleelei.e..•t One of the .greatest prolblenes facing the government was the agricultural industry, Mr. Stevens said, am'ct for that reason the House needed' repre- sentatives who would be in a position to give practical expert adlvfce. Mr. Rader, the Conservative candidate, was such a man, he said. 'Coming to his discuslsion of the Im- perial Conference, Mr. 'Stevens de- cl'ared that until recent years the Bri- tish Empire had no economic tie that would bind it together. He recalled the conference of 1926 wh'eti•' he said the there Prime M'in'ister, Mackenzie King, had come home and announced. that he had secured a national status for Canada. • !The present • Governaneimt had sought to secure for Canada a means of increasing trade and industry, he said, and had not been SO concerned with national sta�tp's. The Government had sought to +secure a preference for Canadian goods in the United King- dom somebadng the Liberal govern- ment had failed' to do. A great deal of 'the present d'epre's- sion was common to the world, and beyond the control of any one coun- try, Mr. Stevens said. But it struck Canada while the Liberal government was in office, he declared. He cen- demned the policy of the last Govern- ment, which, he said, had "placed 'Can'a'da financially under the heel of t he United States." The •pre's'ent .Government,. Mr. Ste- vens said, took office under chaotic conditions, and found, envong obher thiin'gs, that the country . was being 'flood'ed with goods ' du'm'ped into Can - at a price less than they costto produce. Tariff .hand prevented' this, and the result of these tariffs, he said, h ad been the establishment of new in- dustries in Canada and , the conim'er- cial salvation of the Country." ;Canadian agrieulltunal and primary prodwcers would get at last some re- turn for the preference, rates granted !British goods in "this country, Mr. IS'tevemas declared, in speaking of the conference. It mi'glht be said by the Olppotsiti!on, Mr. Stevens continued, that Canada had enjoyed a free mar- ket in the United Kingdom for years. !Suit wheat use was it, he asked,. when that market was being flooded with commodities et a price below the cost of prod'uc'tion? He referred to Russian wheat i'mports. to Great Britain as an instance. The Mf'nitis;ter'regretted ,'h•e could not divulge the full particulars of the con- ference, but he expressed a belief that they would all be tabled in the .Ehnpire !Parliaments within a few weeks, and that they would all he ratified. 'Referring to the financial record cif the !Government, Mr. Stevens told orf. the success of loans secured' in, recent years. Their, successful fin'anrcing aper- ,abions were evidence of the 'faith of 'tlhe people in the ` integrity of the IPrinae Minister and his Government. 'The United States had not wanted to lend any more money to Canada,, Mr, Stevens said, and had told the 1Govelnn'ment to "go.back and s'trafght- en out your 'Canadian National Rail- ways." ,Mt':,Bennieibt's reply to that had been to secure all; the money needed from the people themselves. 'An'd we are straightening out "the Canadian. 'National," Mr. Stevens con- tinued. The enormous expenditures and obligations incurred by the CRO. adieu Na'tionnal had been under a Lib - eta] Govennment,...Mr. Site'vens said, and tisis was one of the liabilities in- herited by the present government, "Scores of high-sa'laried' officials have been done away, with," sa'id Mr. ;Stevens, "and the railways have been ,nunaing as well as they ever were." Mr. George Sipo'tton, MR., of Wing- 'ham, ispoke from a Sienforbh platform for the first time since he .spoke for J. J. ivierner here in 19117. He urged the people to forget polities and make this by-election an approval of the Imperial Conference. Tihe eye's of the Empire would be on the constituency of Smith Huron ant this time. .BISHOPSEAGER ADDRESSES HURON LAYMEN !Huron Deanery Laymen's Assbcia- iion, meeting in ;St. Paul's Anglican's Church, Clinton, on, Tuesday evening, were addressed'' by the Diocesan head, Bishop Seager of London. A brief service of prayer was held in the church before proceeding to the spac- ious 'Sunday 'S'c'hool hall which was tallled' by thebanquet gathering.'"` After grace by his •Lordship the laymen sat dawn to, one of the most delicious and delightful banquets it hp'S been their privi'le'ge to enjoy. To the rector's wife, Mrs. K. M'dGourn, and her S.B. class, a great deal of praise was given for the sumptuous repast.Opening the second part of the evening's program, the president ` of the Huron. Deanery Laymen, . 'Sheriff Middleton, called upoty 'Cal. H. B. Combe, chairman of the' Clinton Lay- men's A's'sociation, to introduce Bishop $eager.' Col. Combe referred to the fact that the Bishop had begun life in 1Goderich and' that -his father, who was present at the head table, still resided in that town. Stating that the Clinton congregation was very proud of its 'history, he briefly outlined several of its notable events. (Bishop Seager, declaring, his great pleasure in. being present at such a large gathering of laymen, congratu- lated the ladies on the success of the banquet. Stating that he 'wished to outline from the viewpoint of the leaders of the Diocese and of the Church in Canada, the: affairs and pro'blems of both, he expressed the belief that the change in world condi- tion's was awa:ken'ing men and .women to new and undreamed of vigor and vitality in furthering .God's reason, iwhieh will rep'l'ace 'man's selfishness. The Bishop remarked that in his 35 years' labor in the church he had seen five distinct periods of difficult times; he believed the present was the most severe and far-reaching. It is a chal- lenge to every follower of Christ, It is human nature for each one to blame and be carpin'g,at some one else, to which, the Bishop humorously declar- ed, the ministers present would un- doubtedly agree. IR'eferring to matters in the diocese, he informed the gathering .that Len don Diocese was the one diocese to meet all its apportion'rnents diming the past year and he sincerely hoped it were passible to again "meet obliga- tions. There are moreclergy than can be .provided for in the diocese at pre- sent, but in time this would be over- come, as only several years ago there wasa scarcity. Some recently .ordain- ed ministers of Huron College have been •sent. to England for a year or two. %Fo,rty-one acres of Band has been purchased adjacent to i'he University for a new site for Huron. College; but the building will not be undertaken at present. /Referring to the recent d'is'closure of grave financial loss • sustained by the church • in the West through the ini- quitous defalcation of an official, ,he intimated there seemed to be a gener- al •desire that through • the General Synod of 'Canada the amount • ap- proadhing a million diallers be ap- portioned through the East as well as the West and! be netsubstantiated, He declared it ,was aln, antiquated u:reap- 'proach'able system that permitted such an appalling loss.

' A newspaper despatch referring to the victory says: New York, Sept. 11 -American am- ateur golf to -day accepted the new :holder of its championship trophy, Ross (Sandy) ,Somerville, Canadian, sportsman, with praise. "Somerville's victory strikes a pare- ticularly 'happy chord in our interna-- tiaual golf relations," said Herbert 11.. Ramsay, president of the United States• Golf Association. "Johnny ',Gsodman• acquitted hi'mse'lf splendidly on behalf of our rising group of younger players, in the final, but he lost Saturday by a close margin to a golfer with real char epions'hip stuff. "It was a great match, a fine vfc-- tory' for -Somerville and a read tribute - to Canadian golf. I. can say happily that since the trophy has to leave this country, it can be in no better'handss"' Bobby Jones, who defeated Somer— villein the first round of the Georg- ian's last championship snatch at Me- riou in 1930, praised the Canadian as one of the ,finest match players he has, ever met. "But for a lucky putt I got down to. turn things my way at Merion fro, 1930e. !So'merville' might have beaten me there," said Jones.
