A hundred thousand owners of low-priced cars
1-1" throughout Canada were invited recently to
tell what they thought was Chevrolet's most impor-
tant story. Like a recurrent theme through the
thousands of entries received was the conviction
—Chevrolet leadership is based on the goodwill of
the men arcd women who have tested the Chevrolet
Six in millions of miles of driving.
The Chevrolet Six you buy today is a proved car;
proved on the hard testing , ground of a nation's
roads and byways to the satisfaction of thousands of
your fellow -Canadians. It has won acknowledg-
ment today as 'the Great Canadian Value, just as
this proud title has been won by each succeeding
Chevrolet since the first of the line came out of the
factory at Oshawa, seventeen years ago.
No wonder, then, that since January 1st, Canadians
have purchased more Chevrolets than any other car,
regardless of price. Wise motorists have said in no
uncertain way that they want six -cylinder smooth-
ness, free -wheeling, syncro - mesh gear -shifting,
Fisher bodies, four parallel -mounted springs —
and the other Chevrolet features without which
no 1932 car can possibly be called complete!

'Cosgrave's Warning
Dublin ---Solemn warning against
"disastrous economic war with Great
Britain "into which the Irish people
.are being dragged" was issued . by
former President William T. Cos-
grave, Leader of the Opposition. Mr,
Cosgrave called on electors of the
Free State to prevent economic war
with their best customer, and urged
further direct negotiations to settle
amicably the dispute arising out of
the Irish refusal to pay land annuit-
ies. He foresaw the gravest results
from the erection of tariff barriers
by both countries.
War Foes to Fly Ocean
London -A Gerrnan and a British.
,airman, who tried to kill one anoth-
•er in battle fifteen years ago, an-
nounced they intend to make a west-
ward air crossing of the Atlantic as
a crusade to show the futility of war.
The airmen are Baron von Schleich,
so-called "Black IK.night" of the Ger-
man flying forces, and Major Chris-
topher Draper, known as the "Mad
Major," of the old British Royal
Flying Corps. They plan to tnnke
the trip, they said, in the near future.
and; they will be side by side in the
seockprt.
Irish Tariff Bill' Adopted by Dail
Dublin—The Dail Eireann in spec-
ial session adopted the Government's
Emergency Tariff Bill after refusing
to accept a Senate asnendment. The
bill becomes law when signed by the
Governor-General
President Eamon de Valera's Gov-
ernment may now levy duties of any
amount on imports from Great Bri-
tain. The measure was designee` to
answer the 20 per cent, duties levy
by Britain on Free State goods fol-
lowing Mr, de Valera's decision to
withhold the land annuities.
What Farmer Wants is Fair Play
" Preference' is merely another
word for `tariff,' " was the concise
initial statement of 5. J. Morrison,
veteran Secretary of the United Far-
mers of Ontario. Turning to his filet
Mr. Morrison drew out a section of
the recent recommendation of the
farmers' delegation to the Dominion
Government, and pointed to a spec-
ific paragraph which read: "We, sev-
eral thousand representatives of Can-
adian agriculture, emphatically de-
plore excessive trade restrictions, and
express the hope that the Empire
Conference will be the beginning of
a universal movement which will re-
sult in freeing again the channels of
trade throughout the world,"
"It must, therefore, be clear," con-
tinued Mr. Morrison, "that the far -
niers are not looking for preferences.
They simply want fair play, They
feel that the disparity between ;the
price of their products and the price
of their. requirements from urban in-
dustry, is so great that their pur-
chasing power has been largely lost
between those upper and nether mill-
stones, In our judgment it is incum,
bent atpott the delegates at Ottawa
today to keep in the forefront of
their deliberations the ruralneeds of
their respective countries --both ec-
onomic and human -and in the light
of the fact, that if life breaks down
on the farm, it breaks down every-
where."
Dictatorship Established
Berlin -Dictatorship gripped the
State of Prussia with a hand of iron
and, although there were stirrings of
opposition, it appeared that the peo-
ple would wait peaceably for the
Reichstag elections July 31, to voice
their opinions.
In Berlin and the Province of
Brandenburg, both under inertial
law, business went on as usual, while
Chancellor Franz von Papen, self-
appointed Federal Commissioner of
the State, presided over the first ses-
sion of the new Prussian Cabinet.
Sault Visited by Wolf
Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.—On the eve
of Wolf Week, a big timber wolf
roamed Pine Street, in the East End,
haif a . mile from the wild -animal
show prepared for Wolf Week, and
got away with it, A, R. Wood, the
Chairman of the Parks Board, re-
ceived three phone calls from res -
dents of Pine Street, that a large
wolf had just crossed the road there
from west to east, and had gone in-
to the extensive woods that cover
the area south of the C.P.R. tracks.
Five people saw it.
Flying Atlantic by Stages
Seydisfjoerdur, Iceland — Captain
Wolfgang von Gronau, who for the
third time is flying the Atlantic by
stages over the Northern route ladn-
ed in this East Shore town from the
Island of Sylt, Germany, exactly ten
hours after his take -off. Shortage of
fuel made it necessary for him to
stop here instead of continuing on
to Reykjavik, Iceland's Capital, 250
miles away on the west coast of the
Island.
The airman, bound for Montreal
with three companions, planned to
remain here overnight. After taking
on a new supply of fuel he will pro-
eed to Reykjavik when the weather
is favorable.
President Hoover Signs Act
Washington—Placing the seal of
approval upon the last great cog in
his reconstruction machine, President
Hoover signed the act which will
spread a $125,000,000 chain of home
loan banks across the United States.

old newspapermen there was an iui-
nediate demand for between $300,-
000,000 .and $500,000,000 in home
constrfiction awaiting only financing
facilities.
Germany Demands Equality
Geneva, Switzerland — Germany
threatened to leave the World Dis-
armament Conference, lining up with
Italy in stating the declaration to be
adopted before adjournment was en-
tirely unacceptable.
Count Rudolf Nadolny, the Ger-
man spokesman, said that when the
conference is resumed after the sum-
mer recess it will be without the col-
laboration of Germany, unless the
delegates recognize, before adjourn-
ing, Germany's right to a 'position of
equality with the other nations of
the world.

placement in a cabinet shake-up,
Dino Grandi, for several years It-
aly's foreign minister, was appointed
Italian ambassador to Great Britain.

the foreign portfolio in person in his
governmental realignment, issued the
official announcement, and a few
hours later Signor Grandi started on
a month's vacation before taking up
his duties in London.

will be raised one foot by the con-
struction of underwater piers in the
St. Clair River between Sarnia and

ing the signing of the international
treaty concerning the St. Lawrence

will be done in this district, as the
contract between the two countries
calls for the United States to do
much of the work in this part of the
lakes system. Dredging .at the
mouth of the lake will be undertak-
en shortly, it was learned today.
