New York. — Voting down a. pro-
posal to' declare a one-year morato-
rium on duck shooting in the United
States, the 21st American Game.
Conference, closing a three-day- meet-
ing, passed a resolution leaving fin-
al determination of the length of the
1986 season to the United States
,Bureau of"Biological Survey. •
The resolution, offered by Colonel
Arthur F. Foran, acting chairman of
the resolutions committee, precipit-
ated a sharp clash between John
Baker, executive director of the Na-
tional Association of Audubon Socie-
ties — proponent of a one-year ban
beginning September, 1986 — and op-
ponents of the move'. Finally Baker's
proposal was put in a vote and de-
feated by an almost 2 to 1 majority.
Another resolution adopted asked
President Roosevelt that "all renew-
able resources of the country be
placed under the control of a single
governmental agency."
',' NEW CHAIRMAN.

o ement of the University of sary• with day flying only. Along

tie conference for 1936-36, succeed '
ing Hoyes Lloyd of Ottawa, super-.
Viser of wild life protection in Can-
ada.
Closer unity between the United
States and Canada on the matter of
waterfowl shooting was sought in a
i resolution passed and instructing the
now chairman of the conference to
appoint a committee representative
of the two Countries to formulate a
unified program for the taping of
water fowl in the future.
As regards wheat, a special levy
subsidy scheme has been put into
operation,. under the Wheat Act
of 1932, whereby producers receive
a "standard price" averaging 10
shillings per cwt. so long as the
total home crop does not exceed
27,000,000 cwt., or approximately
the prewar output, The funds re-
quired to pay to growers the dif-
ference between the market price
...-The birthday ainniversary of the
and the standard price are raised
by means of a levy on all flour
manufactured or imported. An im-
port duty of two shillings per eir.
(480 pounds was imposed,. on wheat
in grain from foreign countries
under the Ottawa Agreements Act,
1932.
As regards sugar, financial as-
sistance has been given to the
United Kingdom beet sugar indus-
try since 1925 by means largely of
a direct Exchequer subsidy. The
customs duty on imported sugar
has not been increased during the
period of assistance, and imports
have not been subject to quantita-
tive regulation. The total effective
rate of assistance given to the in-
dustry by way of " subsidy and re-
venue abatement has been on a
declining scale and in 1933-34 was
substantially less than the state
assistance provided by other Ett-
ropean countries, such as France,
Germany and Italy, to their do-
mestic industries.
In spite of differences in their
nature and purpose, it is possible
to say of these developments that
while they have afforded substan-
tial assistance to producers in the
United Kingdon during a period
of unprecedented difficulty, they
have not led to any undesirable ex-
pansion of home production, sign-
ificantly increased the cost of living
or had any serious effects on British
international trade.
To Include Canada
In Air Mail Network
(By the British Aircraft Society.)
Sir Philip Sassoon has announced
official plans for the development of
Empire air communications which
rnean extension and expansion on, a
scale hitherto unapproachect •-any-
where
anywhere in the world. Briefly, by 1937,
the British Government propose to
entrust all first-class mail to the air
plan'.:Time schedules for' the journey
from London to Brisbane will be
to seven days, between England
tl India to two days, Englafie and
East'" Africa to two and a half days,
London and Cape Town to four days,
London and Singapore to four days.
Services will be much more fre-
quent. There will be four or five
services weekly in each direction be-
tween England and India, two be-
tween England and Australia and
England and South Africa, three
between England and Singapore
and England and East Africa.
Canada is not mentioned in Sir
.Philip's statement, but plans for in-
clusion of that great Dominion with-
inthe imperial air network are be-
ing energetically pushed forward; I
confidently expect a regular trans-
Atlantic air route to be in working
within three years.
Great Britain is the first country
in the world to adopt the policy of
sending all first-class mails by air.
The next two years will be years of
intensive preparation for the new
and augmented services. New air-
craft—faster and larger than any
yet in service—must be designed
and built. The routes must be thor-
oughly equipped with lighting, radio
and weather stations. Aerodromes
must be improved, additional emerg-
ency landing grounds laid down.
The general adoption of night
flying, essential if large passenger -
carrying aircratlt are to maintain
the, promised schedules, means de-
pendence on ground organizations to

Rhefzrnatism- Away
Writing to tell how she keeps her
activity, this wonderful old woman
statesz—
"My hands were becoming SO
crippled that I had to give up piano
and organ playing --and ealmost en-
tirely gave up knitting. 1 have been
using Kruschen Salts for nearly two
years, and am very pleased with the
result. Last August L played two
church services on the organ, and

The six mineral salts of Kruschen
have a direct effect upon the whole
bloodstream, neutralizing uric acid,
which is the recognised " cause of
rheumatism. They also restore the
eliminating organs to proper work-
ing order, and- so prevent constipa-
tion, thereby checking the further
formation of urie acid and other
body poisons which undermine the
health.

slump comes largely through new
activity in the construction and buil-
ding industries."—Sir Arthur Salter,

Sir Philip declared that the Gov-
ernment's hope was that letters
posted in the United Kingdom
would pay about the present Empire
rate of 1'/ d. for carriage by air,
this to apply to the first half -ounce
instead of the first ounce. He ex-
plained that correspondence cover-
ing at least eight sides of specially
light paper could be sent within the
hal£-ounce limit.
He made the important point that
the whole scheme, which would
multiply three fold the mileage
flown annually on the Empire rout-
es, depends for its realization u`p 5n
the willing co-operation and support
of all of the governments concerned.
Full success, indeed, can come. only
with the whole -hearted approval and
support of the government of every
Dominion.
Important first steps have already
been taken in the obtaining of air-
planes suited for the accelerated
services. Irnperial Airways, stated
Sir Eric Geddes in his recent speech
to the company's shareholders, are
placing orders for four "prototype"
craft, two landplanes and two flying
bolts. These will probably be pro-
duced by four different firms. They

cruising speeds, which are still con-
sidered unduly expensive by some
