FRANCES AND GERMANY SIGN A NO-WAR PACT

A Solemn Acknowledgement Of The Present Frontier : Colonial Question Not Settled United Press Association – Copyright.  (Received December 7, 6 p.m.) PARIS, Dec. 6.

“I have come for peace between France and Germany,” declared the German Foreign Minister (Herr von Ribbentrop) upon his arrival.  He was greeted by the French Foreign Minister (M. Bonnet).

Thousands of Mobile Guards placed a cordon around the station.

Herr von Ribbentrop and M. Bonnet signed a no-war pact.  It reads:

“The French and German Governments, convinced that friendly and good-neighbourly relations are one of the most essential elements in the consolidation of good relationship in Europe and in the maintenance of peace, will do all in their power to safeguard such mutual relations.

“Both countries state that there are no more questions of a territorial kind between the countries, and that they solemnly recognise the present French-German frontier.

“Both are resolved, without prejudice to their relations with Third Powers, to

remain in touch regarding all mutual problems and to negotiate if those problems lead to international difficulties.”

Silent crowds lined the unbeflagged streets through which Herr von Ribbentrop drive heavily guarded. Herr von Ribbentrop later issued the following statement:-

“France and Germany, taking into account the solid basis constituted by the friendship binding them to other States, have agreed to end their secular frontier conflicts and by reciprocally recognising their territory, to facilitate the road to mutual recognition and consideration of their vital national interests as partners with equal rights.”

“France and Germany declare themselves, after serious differences, ready to

establish their relations on ‘bon voisinage’ (good-neighbourliness) for the

future.  With this declaration of goodwill they express the conviction that no opposition exists of a vital nature to justify conflict of economic interests.” Colonial Claims

The Paris correspondent of “The Times” points out that the German-French no-way declaration cannot be interpreted as an abandonment of the German colonial claims.

The “Daily Mail’s” Berlin correspondent supports this view, quoting the official spokesman as saying:- “The Franco-German frontier is final, but the declaration does not concern the French colonies.”

AIR MINISTRY’S NEW HOME   Big Move Accomplished In One Week-end

British Official Wireless.  (Received December 7, 8.30 p.m.)   RUGBY, Dec, 6.

Opening the new premises of the Air Ministry in Berkeley Square, the Secretary of State for Air (Sir Kingsley Wood) said that the Ministry’s new home was the largest individual hiring for office purposes that the Office of Works had ever negotiated, and if one were to walk round every room in the building the distance would be 30 miles.

The move had involved the transfer of 50,000 separate items in one week-end.

Assistance For China   BRITISH SYMPATHY   Proposals Are Under Examination

WARNING TO JAPAN

United Press Association – Copyright   (Received December 8, 11.30 p.m.) LONDON, Dec. 7.

In the House of Lords, the Earl of Plymouth said that the Government was

examining a number of proposals for the granting of assistance to China in connection with export credits.

The Government will certainly examine sympathetically these and any similar requests from the Chinese Government, he said.

Referring to an announcement from Tokyo regarding the formation of an economic and political bloc between China, Japan and Manchukuo, he said: “His Majesty’s Government cannot possibly subscribe to it.”  He was sure that the Japanese Government must realise that its present policy must inevitably have incalculable repercussions in other parts of the world.

Where Is The Owner?

Attempts are being made to trade the owner of a General Service Great War medal which was found in a tin of staples at the premises of Timber Millers, Port Ahuriri.  The services of the “Daily Mail” have been sought with a view to returning this memento to its owner.

The obverse of the medal bears a portrait of King George V and around the edge are the familiar Latin words on all British coins – Georgius V Britt: Omn: Rex et Ind: Imp.”

The reverse bears the figure of a horseman with bared sword.  His mount in trampling on a shied bearing the

[Photograph]

German Imperial Emblem and alongside is a small skull and crossbones.  It bears the figures 1914, 1918.

On the edge of the medal is the owner’s name – Robert E Repson.

The correct name is believed to be Robert Repsch, who was employed as a

professional cook.  It is believed he is no engaged by a shipping company. Mr Repsch was formerly in charge of the cookhouse at Tutira Mill.

EX-KAISER SPEAKS HIS MIND ON HERR HITLER   Shirted Gangsters Can Build Legions But Not A Nation

United Press Association – Copyright.  (Received December 7, 11.15 p.m.)                                                                 NEW YORK, Dec. 6

The ex-Kaiser breaks a long silence on Herr Hitler in an interview with Mr. W. Burckhardt published in the magazine, “Ken”.  Asked what he thought of the Fuhrer, Wilhelm retorted explosively, “Nicht”, meaning “Nothing.”  He added: “There’s a man alone, without a family, without God.  Why should he be human? Without doubt he is sincere, but this very excessive sincerity keeps him partly out of touch with men and realities.

“A nation is created by families, religion, tradition.  He builds legions, but he does not build a nation.

“For a few months I was inclined to believe in National Socialism.” continued the ex-Kaiser.  “I thought it a necessary fever and I was gratified to see associated with it for a time some of the wisest and outstanding Germans’ but these one by one he has got rid of, or even killed – Herr von Papen, General Schleichner, Baron von Neurath, even General von Blomberg have gone.  He has nothing left but a bunch of shirted gangsters.

German Glory Gone

“This man could bring home a victory to our people each year without bringing them the glory of our Germany, which was a nation of poets, musicians, artists and soldiers.

“He has made Germany a nation of hysterics and hermits engulfed in a mob and led by a thousand liars and fanatics.”

THE B.B.C. LOOKS INTO FUTURE   Short Wave Progress   ITS GENERAL USE FORECAST Director’s Belief

British Official Wireless   (Received December 7, 8.30 p.m.)   RUGBY, Dec. 6.

The Director of the B.B.C., in a speech at London, said that short-wave and

ultra-short-wave broadcasting was only beginning, but, in view of the

astonishing progress made in the last two or three years, would it be rash to

suggest that, before this century had passed its halfway mark, short-wave

reception from one side of the world to the other might become as generally

accessible to the ordinary listener as medium-wave reception was at home to-day?

 

DISCRIMINATION ALLEGED   BRITISH TRADE IN CHINA   PROMISES MADE                         Hope That

Japanese Will Lift Restrictions

British Official Wireless   (Received December 7, 6.30 p.m.)   RUGBY, Dec. 7.

Lord Plymouth, replying in the House of Lords to a debate on the treatment of

British interests in the Far East, said that the situation regarding British

trade in China was still very unsatisfactory.  The restrictions imposed on

shipping where, in the eyes of the British Government, deliberate discrimination against British interests.  The British Government considered that there was no valid reason why British ships should not be admitted to harbours in South China, and representations had been made to the Japanese Government. In view of the repeated promises by the Japanese Government that the restrictions would be removed the British Government was expecting an early improvement in the situation.

In the Commons the Parliamentary Secretary for Labour (Mr. R. A. Butler)

admitted that the position was unsatisfactory.  He said that the British

Government was prepared to consider all possible measures to safeguard British interest in China.  The British Government would always be ready to give assistance in bringing hostilities to an end when the appropriate moment arrived.

Tribute Paid By Hitler Youths   BOY SCOUT TRAGEDY   Memory Of Lost Lads Honoured COMRADES IN SPORT

British Official Wireless.   (Received December 7, 8.30 p.m.)                              RUGBY, Dec. 6. A memorial erected to the memory of five London schoolboy members of a Boy Scout Party who lost their lives during a severe blizzard and fog when holidaying in the Black Forest, Germany, in 1936, has recently been opened by the German authorities.

The Hitler Youth movement has in this memorial given a permanent form to the

feelings of sympathy which were expressed in practical form at the time of the disaster.

The memorial bears the names of the five boys, together with the inscription in German and English:

“Erected in sympathy by the Hitler Youth to honour the memory of their sports

comrades, the English Boy Scouts.

Motor-Cars In Collision   NO ONE INJURED   Early Morning Accident                          VEHICLES

DAMAGED

A good deal of damage was caused to two motor-cars which came into collision at the intersection of Karamu Road and St. Aubyn Street at 1 o’clock this morning. None of the occupants was injured.

One of the cars, a three-seater roadster, was travelling south along St. Aubyn Street when it came into collision with a five-seater tourer being driven along Karamu Road toward Napier.  The tourer was struck broadside-on, pushed sideways across the road, and pinned against a telephone pole on the corner. The tourer suffered extensive damage to the front portion and the roadster was damaged on both sides, where it was struck by the other car and where it was pinned against the post.

 

PRIME MINISTER’S BROADCAST   MR SAVAGE EXPOUNDS GOVERNMENT’S POLICY Important Wireless Talk On Financial And Industrial Plans By Telegraph – Press Association. WELLINGTON, Dec. 7.

The Government’s financial and industrial policy was explained by the Prime

Minister (the Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage) in a broadcast address to-night.

“I would like to say that, first and foremost, it is the aim of the Government to build and maintain the standard of living of all New Zealanders.  It is no use trying to lift our standard of living under the old economic system of ‘go as you please and devil take the hindmost,’” said Mr. Savage. “In the past New Zealand has depended on expanding farm production and expanding markets overseas.  This has had the effect of developing our rich farm lands, “Whenever overseas prices have fallen” continued Mr Savage, “we have had to go without goods from abroad and we have not been able to supply them from our own production.  The second step obviously is to make these goods ourselves. “This can’t be done all at once.  It will take some time; but we must see to it that New Zealand manufacturing industries are in a position to supply our needs. “While we have our first duty to our own people we also have obligations to Great Britain, and these will never be lost sight of by the Government. “We have repeatedly assured the British Government that we are prepared to buy from them to the full extent to which they buy from us, that is, after our debt services have been met.

INTEREST ON DEBTS

“There has never been any question concerning the payment of interest on our

debt service.  It is on the trading side that we are adopting a new policy.  We want to increase our trade with Great Britain.

“To the extent that we are able, we want to spend every penny of the sterling proceeds of our exports on buying British manufactured goods.  We are gong to buy from those who buy from us, with first preference to the Motherland, buying as much as possible from the United Kingdom and making the adjustments necessary with other countries.

“This cannot be achieved by customs tariffs and preference duties only.  The sensible way is to select the goods we want to buy from Britain.  It is all a question of scientific selection of imports.  This same method of import selection is the most effective way of building up our own industries.  We are going to give New Zealand manufacturers a definite market if they can turn out goods.  To the extent that they can’t, we will import goods from abroad. “Then there is the question of raw materials and equipment.  We must make sure that our industries are provided with all the raw material and machinery they need.  Each year we will set aside a certain part of our overseas funds for essential materials so that our workers and factories may be continuously employed.

LICENCES FOR IMPORTS

“I should like to make it clear that in dealing with applications for important licences for the purchase of goods and materials, preference will be given to those which constitute essential requirements and which cannot be produced in the Dominion; and I want to say most emphatically that what we are introducing is not a barrier but a regulative procedure.

“All we are doing is to introduce an element of planning into our economic life, where formerly things were left to chance.

“Now I wish to say something about the exchange position.  Each year we receive

from our exports a certain amount of sterling money.  This is used to pay

interest on our overseas debt, to provide debt repayments, to pay freight on our exports and imports, to pay the expenses of New Zealand travellers when abroad. Also, when people want to transfer money abroad, they use up New Zealand’s sterling money to do this.  In fact, these people can, by spending unusual sums abroad, use up the money we require to pay for our necessary imports.  This is the latest model in patriotism and it is as foolish as it is unnecessary, because the money is quite safe here.

THE PLEDGED WORD

“I have given my word of honour to the people that their interests will be safe. That pledge stands.  The point is that we are not going to let people embarrass the financial structure of the country, and, incidentally the interest of the people as a whole, in this way.

“Briefly, the position is this.

“We are adopting a policy of import selection because we are going to build New Zealand industries.  We need to select our imports because we want to protect our standard of living especially when overseas prices fall.  We have chosen the method of import selection, and because we want to pay off  gradually our overseas debts and conserve the amounts necessary to do this, we are going to select our imports.

“This is how it will be carried out.  We must make sure that all the money due to New Zealand from overseas every year will be under the supervision of our Reserve Bank.  To do this, everybody wishing to export anything from New Zealand must have a licence.  In practice, this will not apply to goods sent overseas by post.

“There will be no hindrance to exporters, and procedure us simple. CAUTIONARY METHODS

“The next step is to see that adequate amounts of our overseas money are set aside for our debt service, our regular commitments, our needs in the way of equipment and raw materials and our other imports.  This means that everybody desiring to import goods will require a licence to enable them to fit in with the Government’s plan and to see that the Imports are bought from the countries decided on.

“Perhaps I could sum up in this way.  We are faced with this position.  There is depression and uncertainty of the most ominous kind overseas.  We have to defend our

Further comment on the new trade control measures will be found on page 10.

country in more ways than one.  We want to keep depression, poverty and want

out, for one thing, and we can do it.  We are not going to follow the so-called orthodox method of deflation.

“We fought against that in similar circumstances when we were in opposition from 1931 to 1935.  That policy means the curtailment of public works with unemployment and reduction in wages.  Ours is a positive plan to maintain the high standard of living to-day.  We are going to control the use of our overseas funds.  We are going to conserve sufficient funds to meet our overseas debt requirements.  We must ensure that our debt commitments are met on their due dates.  At the same time, we intend to prevent any further and totally unnecessary flight of capital and, of course, payment for selected and essential imports must be provided for.

“We do not want to cut down our imports, but we do want to commence building up a balanced economy.

A BALANCED ECONOMY

“I should also mention that it us the Government’s intention to issue an

internal loan to meet capital expenditure in connection with railway and

electrical equipment and other public works.  The Government’s policy is to use the public credit and to provide an opportunity for patriotic New Zealanders to invest their savings in the development of the Dominion’s resources. “I say that there is no alternative to our present plan of regulation except to reduce our standard of living, and the Government is totally opposed to that.” “Mr Savage referred to the public campaign for the development of New Zealand industries inaugurated by the Governor-General (Lord Galway) on Monday evening.

He commended the appeal to purchase New Zealand made goods and invited wholehearted and enthusiastic co-operation.

“There is no reason whatsoever for any anxiety about the present and future

economic and financial condition of New Zealand,” concluded Mr Savage.  “As I

have said, time and time again, the Government will never hesitate to tackle the difficulties even though the remedies may mean an adjustment of methods.  The principle of our objective will not be altered.  We place in the forefront of our aims and achievements the security of the people.  Men, women and children are more important to the nation than profits.  The Government will continue to seek a greater measure of welfare and social happiness for all classes. “These can be obtained only by co-operation between the people and the Government and by willing effort on the part of every individual to do everything possible for the advancement of a young nation with great resources. “It is the duty of us all to strive hard for real economic development and expansion.  We must not be content with experiments in social welfare.  We must also excel in individual and collective efforts to make this little country a great nation.”

 

WHALE-OIL CARGO SEIZED   OFFENCES ALLEGED OFF AUSTRALIA                          CALVES KILLED Observer’s Warnings Disobeyed

United Press Association – Copyright.     (Received December 7, 6.45 p.m.) NEW YORK, Dec. 6.

In the first case of its kind in the history of the Federal Courts, the authorities boarded the American whaler Frango and seized portion of its million-dollar cargo of whale oil, due to alleged violations of the international treaty limiting the killing of whales.

A similar seizure was made on the tanker Watertown, which transported part of the Frango’s cargo from Sharks Bay, Western Australia.

The treaty, which prohibits the killing of whales under 35ft. and suckling

females or calves, was allegedly continuously violated under the eyes of an

American coastguard officer, Lieutenant Midtyng, who accompanied the vessel as an observer under the treaty, and whose every warning was disregarded. Lieutenant Midtyng, according to the officials, was “in a precarious position almost constantly.  He was on the trip for three months and regarded each day with new apprehension.”

The Frango arrived at Sharks Bay on June 26 and departed on October 1.  The total kill was 900.

In Defence.

The harpoon carried an explosive bomb that shattered the whale upon impact.

The spokesman for the owners of the Frango insisted that it was impossible to tell the specific size of a whale while it was in the water, and the customary procedure was to accept a fine for any under-sized whales killed. The Federal District Attorney stated that the prosecution of the Frango’s owners was contemplated.

FRENCH TRADES UNIONIST CONFESSES HIS FAILURE

Workers Returning:  Occupation of Factories Opposed By The Public

United Press Association – Copyright.   (Received December 7, 6.30 p.m.) PARIS, Dec 7.

A confession of failure was made by M. Leon Jouhaux, leader of the Federated Trades Unionists, at a meeting of the Trade Union Executive.  He said it was useless to persist with the weapon of the occupation of factories, to which public opinion was opposed.

“Similarly, the Labour attitude to strikes needs revision.” he said.  “Labour is too prone to regard them from the spectacular side.”

He expressed the opinion that the confederation would enter a period of

impotence if it supported the continuance of the agitation against the national recovery decrees.

The industrial situation throughout France is improving.  In the Valenclennes district 180,000 persons are working out of a total of 230,000. There are still 18,000 strikers in the Lyons area, including 2000 dismissed. Disturbances occurred at Denain, where strike leaders were arrested, including one of the seamen’s leaders at Le Havre.

The Finance Commission of the Chamber, by 26 votes to 16, rejected a proposal to

submit a Bill to Parliament for a general amnesty for all connected with the strike.

New Military Planes   SOVIET DEVELOPMENT   Award of Bonuses to Designers AVIATION ENGINEERS

An indication that Soviet aviation engineers have developed successfully new

types of military planes is seen in two small items in the newspaper Pravda.

One item announces the award of bonuses of 100,000 rubles and an automobile each to three designers, Polikarpoff, Archangelsky and Ilyushin, in recognition of their “serious successes” in designing new types of aeroplanes.  These bonuses are believed to be the largest ever given for industrial achievements. The awarding of the Red Banner of Labour to to Mikhail M. Kaganovich elder brother of Vice Premier Lazar Kaganovich has been announced, Mr Kaganovich is Commissar for the Defence Industry which builds military equipment, including aeroplanes.

This announcement was accompanied by formal congratulations from Communist party leaders on his fiftieth birthday and a letter signed by famous Soviet aviators and Commander Loktianoff of the Red Army air force.

This flier’s letter said in part:

“Your leadership of the aviation industry has won great successes in the

organisation of production, the installation of new technology and the newest types of planes.”

 

A State contract has been let to Mr Andrew Fletcher for £150,000 for an addition to the State Fire Insurance Building in Lambton Quay, Wellington.  The work involves the demolition of the Arcadia Hotel.

200 m.p.h. Speed Expected   WINDMILL AEROPLANE   Compressed Air Propulsion MODERN TREND

Dr George W. Lewis, director of research for the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics of the United States, told the closing session of a rotating wing aircraft meeting that “windmill” type planes “definitely open the way for a wide expansion of private flying in the United Stated and abroad.” “Rotating wing air craft to-day are at a point of development comparable to the position of fixed wing aeroplane in 1914,” he said.  “I clearly remember the reception then of the prediction that the aeroplane would fly at a rate of about 160 miles an hour.  I was as confident then that such speed would be attained as I am confident now that rotating wing craft will fly safely at 200 miles an

hour.

Rate of Development.

“The rate of development of the wingless plane from this point on, however, will be much faster than it was in the case of the conventional type of aircraft.  In the first place, we have more and better trained aeronautical engineers, vaster knowledge of the subject and incomparably better equipment.

“In the last six years, we have leaned through our experiences at our

laboratories at Langley Field how to increase the efficiency of the rotary blade plane by 60 per cent.

“Our chief problems to-day are improving the blades and making a hub for their

attachment, which will provide maximum flexibility without flutter or vibration. I confidently believe that the next ten years will see most of the predicted developments of the rotating wing craft come true.

Use of Jet Propulsion.

Professor Montgomery Knight of the Georgia School of Technology reported on the work being done at his institution with “windmill” models.  He is now working on a rotary blade plane to derive its power by jet propulsion.  Helicopters no win use depend on energy supplied by a centrally located engine, which makes torque a problem to overcome.  The blades of Professor Knight’s model are motivated by compressed air which passes through them by hay of hollow, air-tight tubes.

Just as garden sprinklers are spun by the water they spray, so are the blades of this type turned by air seeking release.  The air used in this operation is compressed by the plane’s engine and released through the hub. Professor Knight reported that the method reduced torque to a minimum. Dr Max Munk of Catholic University compared the safety of fixed wing and rotating wing craft holding that for low-altitude flying the latter was much the safer.

Reduced to simple language, Dr. Munk’s paper explained why “burbly” air, which might affect a fixed wing plane, would have little or no influence on the operation of the “windmill” type.

Development of Giroplane.

Raoul Hafner, giroplane engineer, who came from England for the meeting, discussed the Hafner craft and the probable development of it in the near future.

Several persons at the meeting privately admitted that the Hafner plane was much in advance of anything of its kind in America.

Paul E. Hovgard of the Curtiss Aeroplane Company and W. Laurence LePage,

Philadelphia engineer, also read papers.  Mr. Hovgard’s outlined the future of giroplanes, while Mr. LePage’s covered the helicopter in Europe. Dr Alexander Klemin of the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aeronautics, New York University, and R. A. Bailey of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics also reported on research programmes.

Following adjournment, flight demonstrations of autogiros were made at the Philadelphia airport.

 

Six Zulus Killed in Fight   TWO FAMILIES   47 Men Participate in Tribal Clash BETROTHAL PARTY

A tribal fight at a Zulu betrothal  party, in which six men were killed, has resulted in 47 participants being sentenced to six months’ hard labour for fighting.

The natives belonged to two families – the Mcunus and the Dhlaminis – which were enemies as the result of a clash some years ago.

The first day of the betrothal passed off quietly with the usual cooking and

eating of an ox.  According to tribal custom the head was left until the second day, to be skinned, cooked and eaten only by the closest friends and relatives. Trouble Feared.

A headman fearing trouble, ordered the Dhlaminis to sleep in their main kraal away from their rivals, but early in the morning the blowing of horns and whistles warned him that trouble was afoot.  He saw a Dhlamini “impi” or armed man approach an Mcunu kraal and sit waiting.

Meanwhile a Mcunu “impi” had appeared from behind a hill.  After watching each

other all day, the rival factions clashed in a maize field, and in a few minutes six men were killed and a number injured.

According to the evidence given in Court, women egged the men on.

 

 

An agreement has been signed in Brussels for the purpose of preventing possible incidents on the frontier between Belgium and Frances through the expulsion from either country of foreigners to whom permission to reside there is refused.  In future each Government will refrain from sending to this frontier aliens, including those of indeterminate nationality, who are refused a permis de sejour.

[blanket] overcoat, recently lifted his voice in a film studio and bid for the

film rights of “Kipps”, perhaps the best-loved of all of the H. G. Wells novels. And he bid… “One Pound!”

The offer was refused.  Whereupon the same young man offered £35 for the screen rights of “Kipps.”  The Country of the Blind,” “Wheels of Chance” and “Passionate Friends.”  That offer was also refused.

Son of Novelist.

The young man was Mr. G. P. (“Gip”) Wells, scientist son of the great novelist, and his offers – made as a joke of course – occurred during the sale of the old Stoll Film Studios at Cricklewood, who still hold the rights of a great many stories.

But the highlight of the sale was the film rights in 75 stories; by Wells,

Wallace, Oppenheim, Orer?, Hewlett, Wodehouse and Tennyson, among others.

As the sole offers were the jesting bids of young Mr Wells it was announced that the sale of the rights would be conducted by private treaty.

Skulls believed to be either Portuguese or Dutch, have been funds [found] during excavations in the Battenburg Battery, a Dutch fort dating from 1670, Colombo.

The mutilated body of M. Abel Cassier, a secretary of the Pontoise group of

trade unions, has been found on the railway line from Paris to Orleans, near

Choisy-le-Roi station.  M. Cassier disappeared from his home on October 7, when he left for Paris to collect the monthly salary due to him, and was apparently killed by a train.

OKAWA: THE BIRTH-PLACE OF CHAMPIONS   Fine Yearlings For The Sales                                      FIRST STOCK

OF IMPORTED TIDERACE   My Own’s Colt Should Stay  (By MOTUROA)

The Okawa Stud has produced so many champions down through the years that it is probably the best known of the Hawke’s Bay studs, and its continued success is a monument to the foresight of its founder, Mr T. H. Lowry, who still evinces a lively interest in his fine breeding establishment and its products. The Turf records abound with names of horses bred at the famous Okawa Stud, and the wide success of those great gallopers, Desert Gold, Nigger Minstrel, Estland, Finmark, Balboa, Bobrikoff, Downfall, Soltano, Highland, Egypt, need no elaboration, while to-day the well-known gold silks with the blue sash are being able carried by Beaupartir, White Gold, The Crooner, Chevychase, and Millament. As well, the stock bred at Okawa and sold at the National Yearling Sales are winning big races both in New Zealand and in Australia.

Gascony, who was bred at Okawa, has been doing stud duty there for several

seasons and enjoying a large measure of success, but greater interest is being invested in the stock of the new Okawa sire Tiderace, the first of whose stock will be offered at the Yearling Sales at Trentham next month. The Okawa Stud will offer a colt and three fillies by this sire, as well as a filly by Gascony and a colt and a filly by the Elderslie sire Iliad. Mr. J. S. McLeod, president of the New Zealand Racing Conference, will include a colt by Tiderace from My Own in his lots for the Sales.

TIDERACE, who was sired in 1932, is by Fairway, the St. Leger winner and

probably the best staying son of the Polymelus horse Phalaris.

His dam was the No. 4 family mare Panic, who was a daughter of the unbeaten Hurry On (sire of Hunting Song and Defoe) from Volcanic, by Corcya (a son of Polymelus) from La Soufriere, by Robert the Devil from the St. Angelo mare St. Lucia.

In Tideacre’s pedigree there are three strains of St. Simon blood backed with a double strain of Cylene and two strains of Hampton blood.  It is a family which should leave stayers.

The writer has not seen Tiderace nor any of his yearlings, but if the yearlings show the same quality and bone that the colt foal from Gold Trail does then they should find a ready market at the sales.

Staying Family.

CONSIDERABLE interest should be taken in the bay colt by Tiderace from Slack Line (18), for not only is this colt a half-brother to the Gimcrack Stakes winner Lady Primrose and the useful Lazybones, but he comes from the Flora McIvor branch of the Manto line.  From this family have sprung the greatest stayers in the Dominion.

Slack Line was by the Radium horse Night Raid from Miss Hook a daughter of the St. Simon horse Sarto and thus the colt’s first and second maternal sires bring in further strains of St. Simon blood.

Miss Hook was bred from Monture, who won at her only start.  She was by Royal Artillery from the New Zealand Oaks Winner Lady Rosslyn (a half-sister to the New Zealand Cup winner Euraplydon and to Mistral, fourth dam of Supremacy and the Begum, dam of Mazir, Stretto and High Caste), by Lord Rosslyn from Lady

Gertrude, by Cadogan from the Traducer mare No Name.

From this family come Trenton, Nightmarch, Silver Scorn, Silver Ring and Chide. Desert Gold Family.

MARION’S BIRTHDAY (2), who was a chestnut filly by Tiderace, comes from the same family as Desert Gold, her dam D’Oro being an own sister to that great mare. A half-sister to Birthday Party and the promising Hui, this filly’s dam is by the Tracery horse Psychology, who mares are proving great stud matrons.  Her grand-dam is D’Oro (dam of Moorland, Dorado, Haut Monde, Orozino, Doree, Gold Sand, Palace, Orofino and the Coronilla, all winners.)  She is the grand-dam of Alienist, Grand Jury, Knollmere and Princess Doreen, the last named being the best of her year.

D’Oro was by the Gallinule horse All Black from Aurarius, by Maltster from the Wallace mare, who was a sister to the Melbourne Cup winner Auraria. Egypt, Croesus, Gold Trail, Sudan, Desert Chief, Oreum, Gold Rod and Chrysology all belong to this family.

Dam of Vascones.

TALARI (2) has a bay filly by Tiderace, who is thus a half-sister to Vascones, an impressive winner at Marton in the spring.

Talari, who was a winner, was a full-sister to Princess Doreen, who was the best two-year-old of her year and winner of the A.R.C. Welcome Stakes and G. N. Foal Stakes.  In later later years she won the Winter Cup.

Chief Ruler, the highly successful Westmere sire who took the place of Absurd as the sire of early two-year-old winners, was their sire and he was closely related to that horse being by The Tetrach from Jest, the 1000 Guineas and Oaks winner, who was an own sister to Absurd.

Talari was bred from Doree, who won the Hawke’s Bay Guineas and ran second in the New Zealand Oaks and she was by the Ard Patrick horse Lucullus from D’Oro, the second dam of Marion’s Birthday’s colt.

Desert Gold’s Sister.

Aureate (2), the dam of a bay filly by the Fairway horse, is an own-sister to Desert Gold and Nigger Minstrel, and she was a good performer herself.  Her successes on the turf included the Woodville Juvenile Handicap, and the Dannevirke Handicap and Dannevirke Cup.

Aureate has left two good winners in Dawning Light and Aurerus, who quickly rose from the ranks to be one of the smartest gallopers in the Manawatu district last season.  Her colt by Gascony was sold at the National Sales last January for 400 gns. and this youngster, who has been named Ruka, has yet to race. Aureate is thus by All Black, whose mares have left such good class winners as Lady Parn (G.N. Oaks), Royal Artist, Maori Song, All Humbug, Clessamor, Oreum, Haute Monde, and others.

Gasony Filly.

SYMBALLO (2) has a brown filly by the King John horse Gascony, and this

youngster is thus a half-sister to Symcony and to The Crooner, one of the best staying three-year-olds last season.

Symballo is a half-sister by Psychology to Shamrock, Killashandra and Brampton, all smart gallopers, and to Catalini, the dam of the Melbourne Cup winner Catalogue, as well as the G. N. Guineas winner Paleta and the useful Vandyke. The dam of Symballo was the imported Symington mare Symbolism, a half sister to Glass Jug, the third dam of the New Zealand Derby winner Cylinder. Symbolism was bred from Amphora (an own sister to Sundrigge, the sire of Absurd) by Amphion from Sierra (the dam of the Derby winner Sainfoin), by Springfield from the Wenlock mare Sanda, a half-sister to Instep, fourth dam of Desert Gold and Nigger Minstrel.

Eulogy Family.

COURTESY (22), whose Lord Quex filly last year realised 400 gns, has a chestnut colt by Iliad for the Sales this year and this youngster is likely to be one of the top-priced lots if he looks as good as he is bred.

His sire, Iliad, ran second in the Derby and has sired he good classic winners Homer, Greek Shepherd, Yaringa, and other good performers.  He is by Swynford from the Cicero mare Pagan Sacrifice.

Courtesy, who is a sister to Episode, Honour, Prestige, Deep Respect,

Courtcraft, and Submission, and a half-sister to Worship, Heritage and Homily, was a smart galloper herself.

She was by Limond from Homage by Absurd from the famous imported Cicero mare

Eulogy.

The success of every generation of this family is too well known to need

repetition and the filly to be offered at the Sales is likely to bring a four figure price.

The other Iliad younger is a filly from Fintry, a young mare by Chief Ruler from Desert Gold.

My Own’s Colt.

MY OWN (5), dam of Only One and Yours Truly, who ran second at Otaki on

Saturday, has a chestnut colt by Tiderace who should command a big price next month.

This mare was the best staying filly of her year, winning the Great Northern

Oaks and running second in the G. N. St. Leger.  Later in her racing career she added the Tamatete Handicap and the A.R.C. Autumn Handicap to he record.  In all she won eight races and £3445 in stakes.

My Own was one of the best daughters of the Lemberg horse Lord Quex and was bred from the Oaks winner Tressida, damn of the brilliant Runnymede (N.Z. Derby), Happy Landing, Raasay, Ganymede, and Simba.

Tressida was by Tressady from Princess Melton (half-sister to the Melbourne Cup winner Piastre, and to Bee Bee, Baw Bee and Chantress.  She was by Duke of Melton from the Imported Chand Bee Bee, a mare by Royal Hampton and grand-dam of Amounis, one of the greatest horses ever raced in Australia.  He won £48,197 in stakes and ranks as the second biggest stakes winner in Australia and New Zealand, being headed only by Phar Lap.

It would not surprise to find this colt being the top priced Tiderace at the National Yearling Sales.

[photograph]

THE HAWK, the greatest stakes winner ever owned in Hawke’s Bay, amassed over £28,000 in prize money during a long racing career, and is now pensioned off. Looking hale and hearty, he is up to his knees in clover.

 

NORA GREGOR’S NEXT

That smart Bulandshar filly Nora Gregor, who has registered two wins, a second and a third in her six starts to date, has been having an easy time since the New Zealand Cup meeting, but she is being kept going in light work and will not be allowed to go back in condition.  Her next race will be at the Wellington summer meeting next month.

FRESHENED UP

Looking vastly improved by his fortnight’s spell after the Napier Park meeting, Master Cyklon is back in work at Hastings and the Hunting Song gelding looks nicely freshened up for the summer racing.  Master Cyklon is a solid performer when right and it would not surprise to find him picking up a race at the Manawatu meeting.

GOOD COMPANIONS. – The Hawk and the Australian-bred Goshawk, who were both raced by Mr J. M. Cameron, having finished their days of racing are now living on the fat of the land.

 

FILLY WAS LEFT UNNAMED   Withdrawal From Field At Woodville By Telegraph-Press Association.  PALMERSTON N., Dec. 7.

The Siegfried-Left filly which accepted for the Nursery Handicap at Woodville on Saturday has been withdrawn from the field.  Her owners applied for the name

Erba but it was disallowed.  They omitted to send in a further application, with the result that Wotan’s young sister is still without a name. Under the rules of racing she must be named before she can race.

Maori carvings in jeopardy

ward” on one of the collection’s previous locations – in the council basement. “I would be very unhappy to see them go back there,” he said in response to a comment by the general manager of Hastings City Council, Arnold Baker, that the council had given no priority to a permanent home for the carvings and that “they might just go back in the basement.”

“It would be bad for their condition – they would deteriorate very badly – and it would be denying people the enjoyment of them, Mr Neich said. “I image access to the council buildings is not as good as to a museum or cultural centre,” he said.

Mr Baker said the council wasn’t in a position to provide finance for the

extension.  “The council buildings are fully air-conditioned – the carvings only need stable conditions,” he said.  “The council hasn’t put any priority on them.”

When asked if the council building was temporary or permanent housing for the collection, Mr Baker replied: “Well, they’re housed.”

He said the council hadn’t made any decisions regarding them.

The collection was inspected by Mr Neich on two separate occasions, in 1976 and 1979.

In his report he stated that “in view of their age, rarity and quality, the

carvings in Group A (early Mataatua style, probably carved between 1870 and

1880) and Group C (early Arawa style probably from the 1871-1875 period)

constitute a collection of extreme national importance to New Zealand’s cultural heritage.”

He said the collection comprised several groups of carvings of different ages and styles, representing assorted portions of at least three meeting houses. “Very few” carvings of this age now survived in existing meetings houses. “The carvings are national treasures – just about as important to the people of New Zealand as any of the pieces that went overseas in the Te Maori exhibition.” Mr Neich is one of the leading authorities on carvings of this area and time

period in New Zealand.

The placing of the collection in the chambers was described as “very

unsatisfactory” by the director of the Hastings Cultural Centre, Raymond Dixon. Mr Dixon noted that he council had recently approved an estimated $280,000 for a future car park building site when the carvings had been waiting for years for a permanent home.

“Some of the carvings are just leaning against the walls,” he said.

“If the collection was on the open market it would be worth millions,” he said. A trust was formed in 1981 chaired by Piet van Asch to have an extension to the Hastings Cultural Centre to house the collection, and a model of the proposed 3000-metre extension to the council.  No decision was made on the proposal. “This is despite the fact that a $30,000 grant was offered from a trust and a committee set up.  It got nowhere,” Mr Dixon said.

“If people had got behind it, something could have been done,” he added.

Mr. Dixon said the centre already had administrative and service facilities which could serve the extension, which would probably cost about $300,000 to $400,000.

He said the existence of the collection itself would be a major draw card and the carvings were of educational value to schools.

The carvings were initially collected by George Ebbett of Hastings from various parts of the country in the early 1900s, and eventually put on display at Ebbett Park.  The park and the carvings were gifted to the city.

“Most of the carvings are house interior carvings and it is not ethnographically correct to display them as exterior carvings,” Mr Neich said. In 1982 the carvings were sent to the marae at Porangahau, where they were restored and returned to the Hastings City Council in October, 1983. Mr Dixon said he felt it was still possible to obtain support for a permanent home for the carvings.

“It goes back to the people – if they are keen for something to happen, it will happen.”

The Department of Maori Affairs in Hastings had no comment to make about the carvings.

Housekeeper shortage means people are missing out, says Jean

A shortage of housekeepers exists in Hawke’s Bay and up to half a dozen people seeking help each week are having to be turned down, says Jean Hill, housekeeping secretary of the Women’s Division of Federated Farmers. “We had 10 housekeepers two years ago and now we’ve got only half that number with the same demand as then,” said Mrs Hill.

The WDFF acts as a middle party in co-ordinating housekeepers for people who need help.

“It’s an unpaid service we’ve been doing since 1927 catering for mothers going into hospital, older people or anyone who needs help.  You don’t have to be a member of WDFF to use the service,” she said.

“But now we’re having to turn a lot of people away.”

The housekeepers can be booked for up to a month, with the usual period being two weeks.

“The housekeeper comes to the house and lives-in for the period and runs the

home on a day-to-day basis – cooking, cleaning, washing and ironing, not spring cleaning though.

“It’s more than a nanny bureau which looks after children – housekeepers also look after the home,” said Mrs Hill.  “There are other groups which organise housekeepers but they’re a paid service.”

Mrs Hill interviews anyone applying to be a housekeeper before accepting them. They are then put through a training course.

“We bring them into a home situation and put them through the paces for a

fortnight and then send them to other home concepts to make six weeks.

“Anyone selected has to be competent, have a good standard of housekeeping, like people – big and small – be able to cook a good square meal and must be trustworthy and well presented,” she said.

Mrs Hill is looking for people who fit into that role and are aged at least in their 20s.  She also wants to hear from people able to do daily work.  Anyone interested can phone her on 83 601.

Arts week

Schools to show crafts

At least 20 primary and intermediate schools from around the Hastings area will take part in a biennial art and crafts exhibition at the Indoor Stadium, Railway Road, from April 21 to 26.

The exhibition is being organised by the Hastings and Districts Principals’ Association.

Convenor of the organising committee for the exhibition, Mr Doug Crofskey, said several themes had been suggested for the pupils; work, which they were free to follow if they chose.  These were Year of Peace, Year of the Comet, 100 years of fire brigades in New Zealand and the New Zealand police celebrate 100 years. Besides paintings and drawings, models, dioramas and mobiles are also expected to be shown.

There will be an admission charge of $1 for adults.

The exhibition will be open at the following times. – Monday, April 21: 1pm to

4.30pm and 6.30pm to 8pm; Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday: 9.30am to 4.30pm and

6.30pm to 8pm; Friday and Saturday: 9.30am to noon.

 

‘Anchors away’ for new show

The Hastings Musical Comedy Company continues a nautical theme with its second production this year – “Dames at Sea.”

Their first show was “Sailor Beware.”

Auditions for the new production will be held in the New Playhouse Theatre on the corner of Alexandra and Hastings Sts, Hastings, on Sunday, April 20, from 1pm.  The auditions will be conducted by Oliver Christofferson, Myra Reid and Briar Horrocks, director, musical director and choreographer respectively. Set on Broadway, “Dames at Sea” is the light-hearted story of a theatre company on the brink of opening night and forced to find an alternative venue for their show.

Add to this a couple of sailors, a battleship and a starry-eyed girl from the country, and the stage is set for an enjoyable evening.

The playing dates for the show are July 25 to August 9 at the Playhouse Theatre Restaurant.

 

Electorate notes

Hospitality humbling

Last Saturday night was the real event for Mary and myself.

We had attended a friends daughter’s wedding in Taradale.  It hardly seems

possible that the sweet young 10-year-old who presented Bill Rowling with a

bunch of flower in the Taradale Hall during the 1975 election should be walking down the aisle beside her new husband.

After the wedding breakfast we had been invited to attend a social function

organised by the Southern Maori Women’s Branch of the New Zealand Labour Party. This function was held in conjunction with the meeting of the Maori policy committee of the Labour Party.

I believe it is the first time the Maori Party Committee has met in Hawke’s Bay and it comprises representatives from all the four Maori electorates and three of the four Maori MPs attended.

Although this was a function for one political party is never seems incongruous in Maoridom to have representatives of other political parties attend. I noticed several long-standing members of the National Party present at the meeting.

We had attended on the understanding that it was a social function, only to find that the delegates were still locked in humorous and good natured after-dinner leg pulling when we arrived.

It never ceases to amaze me how every time I attend a Maori function I forget

that it is absolutely inevitable that I will be called upon to speak!

When everybody had had their say and waiata (song) been duly held, we then moved next door to the Tamatea Rugby Club rooms.

This is a quite different piece of Maoridom, with a bar (normally an absolute no no on a marae) and lots of young people smoking, drinking and generally enjoying themselves.

Proceedings came to a half for a few minutes while we were welcomed in the

traditional fashion and speeches of welcome and of greeting in Maori were given. Then for the rest of the evening it was simply a question of settling down with a drink and good company to have a discussion.  I was fascinated how in the most modern of surroundings, a rugby club room, the traditional custom of displaying photographs of deceased members of the organisation is carried on. One photo commemorates a promising young player who was killed in an industrial accident and another commemorates a respected club member who died of leukaemia. In the midst of merriment and enjoyment those who have gone before are still remembered.

An evening to be enjoyed by all.  Many times Mary and I have enjoyed the

splendid hospitality of the Maori community in Hawke’s Bay and it is a matter of great regret that our efforts to return it have so often been so feeble and inadequate.

David Ritchie.

It felt like an OBE for Janet

“It felt like an OBE,” is how retired singer Janet Poppelwell described her

feelings when she was elected patron of the Hastings Choral Society last month. The society asked Mrs Poppelwell to be patron as an acknowledgement of the singing she has done in Hastings.

“She did a lot of war-time concerts with her husband (Harry) and sun for many years in various church choirs,” said the society’s president, Peter Price. Mrs Poppelwell has been singing since she was a bonnie lassie in her birthplace of Scotland.

“I remember singing my first solo when I was 14… I’ve never been so nervous in my life,” said Mrs Poppelwell.

She left Scotland with her family when she was 15 years old and arrive in

Auckland aged 16.  There she joined St David’s Presbyterian choir where she performed many solos.

After 11 years in Auckland she married Harry and moved to Hastings.  Almost a year after they married they built a house in Charles Street, Hastings, where they are living today – 52 years later.

Though Mrs Poppelwell has not been involved with the Hastings Society or many music groups in Hastings, the honour of patron was bestowed on her in recognition of her musical efforts elsewhere.

“There’s not many singing groups around.  I’ve belonged to many in the past but Hastings isn’t a very musical town.  If I belonged to a group it would have been a church choir,” she said.

Mrs Poppelwell performed for the last time two years ago.

“I can’t recall where it was but I remember it was a solo.  It wasn’t as if I’d planned it as my last performance, I just decided to give up afterwards. “As you get older you lose the enthusiasm of practice… it was the saddest thing in my life giving up singing,” she said.

Mrs Poppelwell said she received a lot of help in her career from two women. Mrs Betty McClutcheon – who’s dead now – gave me great help.  Losing her was hard on me, it was a terrific loss.  Another woman, Mrs Mary Bell, also helped me.  She never turned me down as an accompanist.

“It was a great joy to sing, I loved it and I wish I could do it now,” said Mrs Poppelwell.

Survey highlights Flaxmere’s case for more schools

The Flaxmere Educational Futures Survey carried out by the Flaxmere Community

Network and the Hawke’s Bay Education Board has produced some important results that cannot be ignored.

For a start, the survey provided a solid data base on the present 2600 Flaxmere households, the children who live in them and their present schooling arrangements.  At the end of 1985, Flaxmere had 1800 primary children of whom 1600 were attending the three local primary schools, 680 intermediate school children and 700 high school age children.  To this large school-age population can be added the large proportion (28 per cent of all those 18 and under concentrated in the under fives.  As estimated 25 per cent of those aged three to five were not attending pre-school education.

The survey also established the firm use of Flaxmere residents on the new

developments needed.  It came as no surprise to me, after weeks of door knocking in the new sub-divisions at the western edge of Flaxmere, that a large proportion of people pointed to the need for a new primary school. The Education Board is already well aware of this need, but had hoped to get firm evidence from the survey as to the numbers of children involved.  This firm evidence is now available, and the board and I will be pushing a strong case for a new primary school.

The sooner a local school can be provided for the dozens of small children who presently wend their way several kilometres to Flaxmere and Irongate schools every morning, the better I will be pleased.

An even stronger preference that came out of the survey was the Flaxmere

residents strongly favour the idea of educating their secondary school children in Flaxmere – 78 per cent of residents would choose this option if it were available, an extremely high proportion when one considers that at present all secondary pupils are educated outside the Flaxmere suburb.

This preference compares with 89 per cent of respondents who wanted their pre-school education in Flaxmere, 90 per cent primary, 86 per cent intermediate and

66 per cent for out of school education.

I have been well aware of this strong wish of Flaxmere residents ever since I moved to the Hawke’s Bay area, and I have discussed the issued with Russell Marshall, Minister of Education, on a continual basis since prior to the 1984 election.

The Education Department has been waiting for this Flaxmere survey before many any firm recommendations on the future of secondary education for Flaxmere.  No they have the fact and it is time for some action.

I am under no illusions that it will be easy to meet the wishes of Flaxmere

residents.  For the Hawke’s Bay area as a whole, the projections show a decline in secondary school pupil numbers over the next 10 years.  This means that some schools are likely to experience the pressure of declining rolls.  Any new

schools in the Hastings area could be expected to draw some pupils away from the existing high schools, and naturally the teachers and others involved with those schools feel concerned at the possibility.  It was precisely this argument which led the former Minister of Education in the National Government to state firmly in 1980 that a Flaxmere High School was not envisaged for the foreseeable future.  This decision received much criticism in Flaxmere. It is not just the present households that have to be considered.  A new sub-division for a further 400 households is planned by Hastings city in West Flaxmere, and the Massey University Geography Department estimates that this could add 700 more children to the suburb in the next three years. They also predict a rise in pre-school numbers in Flaxmere West, a net growth of more than 300 primary children that will go either to a new school or to Flaxmere Primary, which is already bulging at the seams, a slow rise in intermediate school numbers and a sharp increase in the number of high school students over the next two years before an evening out.

In the longer term, if the proposed boundary alterations between Hawke’s Bay County and Hastings City proceed, there will be even more new sub-division in Flaxmere, on the east, south and west.  These medium term projections will make new schools imperative.

I congratulate the Flaxmere Community Network on their initiative in providing volunteers to carry out this survey.  The Hawke’s Bay Education Board has also played a very constructive role.

What even happens next, it is clear that the education needs of Flaxmere will be firmly on the local agenda over the next few years.

 

Giving on im-pulse

Is Inspector In Charge When Testing Car?  SEQUEL TO COLLISION  Magistrate

Reserves Decision  (From Our Own Correspondent).  WAIPUKURAU, This Day.

When an inspector carrying out a test of the brakes is technically in charge of a vehicle, even though the owner may be driving, is a question Mr. J. Miller, S.M., will have to decide before he gives his reserved decision in a case heard yesterday in the Waipukurau Magistrate’s Court.

The facts, as outlined to him, were that Inspector G. A. Maxwell, while testing the brakes on a motor-lorry, ordered the driver to bring his vehicle to an emergency stop.  The driver, William Mahoney, complied with this order, but did not signal his intention with his hand, nor look behind.  A motor-car which was following driven by Edwin George Price, collided with the back of the lorry as it stopped.

The case contains points of law hitherto not decided, and the decision will therefore be of wide interest throughout New Zealand.

Alleging negligence on the part of the traffic inspector and also on Mahoney’s part, Price claimed from the Crown damages amounting to £76.  Mr D. W. Neild appeared for Mr Price and Mr A. M. White for the Transport Department. Mr Neild submitted that the inspector was negligent conducting tests in a busy

street without keeping a proper look-out, and that Mahoney was negligent in

stopping without signalling, and in failing to keep a proper look-out, and that the Crown was responsible for Mahoney’s negligence, as the inspector was in charge of the car.

Mr. White contended that there was no evidence that the inspector was in charge, and there was nothing in the regulations to say that a driver should not give the usual warning signs when with an inspector.  He quoted a road regulation which stipulated that a driver must be able to pull up within half the available clear road in front of him, but the Magistrate contended that this was not practicable in the towns.

Signals Essential Says Magistrate.

A plan of the scene of the accident  and measurements made in the presence of both drivers was produced by Constable D. Sutton.

William John Mahoney, lorry driver, of Waipukurau, called by the plaintiff,

detailed the circumstances of Inspector Maxwell’s test.  When he was given the order to stop, he did not give any signal as there was no time, it being taken as an emergency stop.  A stop in 21 feet at 26 miles an hour was made, Price’s car was not seen until after the collision.  When struck, his lorry had been stationery for one or two seconds.  There was apparently no attempt to avoid a collision for Price’s vehicle finished up right behind the lorry, said witness. He had given way to Mahoney’s lorry as he turned into Russell street from an alleyway, said Edward George Price, sightwatchman, of Waipukurau, and had followed the lorry at a distance of 30 to 35 feet.  He had intended to pass it and had increased speed and was about to swerve round it when the lorry stopped dead without giving any indication.  A collision occurred practically immediately.

Road regulations that a motorist should be able to stop within half the

available clear road ahead of him were quoted to witness by Mr White, but the

Magistrate pointed out that this could hardly apply in the town.  He quoted the Hutt road where whole processions of cars were following closely.  It was essential that a signal be given.  A driver could not stop with his eyes “glued” to the car in front.

“Well, suppose a little child had run out in front of Mahoney’s lorry,” said Mr White.  “He would have stopped as he did one foot away from the child, and then this other vehicle comes around and knocks the lorry a foot further forward and kills the child.”

“In this case I think both parties would have to be exonerated from blame,” the Magistrate replied.

Driver Should Observe Law.

He was watching the speedometer ? all the time, but the driver was supposed to observe all the traffic regulations during the test, George Alexander Maxwell, vehicle inspector for the Public Works Department, told the Court.  After stopping he had felt a distinct bump and on looking through the rear window witness saw Price’s car for the first time.  Most drivers  gave a hand signal as they stopped.

Mechanical signalling apparatus, such as a stop light, was allowable by the regulations, Mr White pointed out.

“But reasonable notice of stopping would have to be given,” said the Magistrate, it was useless, also, to give the hand signal as the same time as applying the brakes.

A Tapley-meter was used to record the breaking distance, said Maxwell.  As long as the brakes were applied ?, the instrument would record no matter what the vehicle’s speed, provided it was not below 13 miles an hour.  The test could be applied even if the driver stopped on his own accord without waiting for the word to stop, said witness.  A driver could even wait some seconds after the order before touching the brake if he liked.

After hearing lengthy technical argument concerning this apparatus, the

Magistrate said he was still not clear about the matter and would like a test of the Tapley-meter.

Alexander Brown Hastie, wool and skin dealer, described the accident as he saw it from a distance of 30 yards.  Price seemed to have difficulty in stopping he said.

Can Two Persons Be in Charge?

Inspector Maxwell had told him he had carried out the test in Russell street

because he was in a hurry to get back to Napier, said Constable Sutton, when

recalled.  Russell street was the second busiest street in the town.  The stop light on Mahoney’s lorry was not working, said witness.

Harry Butler, motor engineer, of Waipukurau, said he quoted £49 13/6 as the cost of repairing the damage to Price’s car.  He knew that the brakes of it were in good order before the accident.

There was no evidence that the inspector was in charge, Mr. White submitted.  It was for the Magistrate to decide whether there could be two persons in charge of a car.  If two parties were negligent, he who had the last opportunity avoiding an accident a duty to do so, and it was submitted that Price had been negligent in keeping two close to Mahoney.

Mr Miller:  But it is difficult to prove that.

Mr White:  Price was either travelling two fast or not paying attention.

Mr Miller:  I feel that there would be chaos is all drivers had to be prepared for other cars in front stopping without signalling.  I am against you on that point.

A recent case in Christchurch, of which reports were not yet obtainable, where a father and daughter had been concerned, might possibly have a bearing on the issue of whether two persons could be in charge of a motor-car, Mr White submitted, and he asked the Magistrate to look into this case before giving his decision.  Mr Miller gave an assurance that would do so, and accordingly reserved his judgement.

The Canterbury lawn tennis team was successful in it’s challenge to Auckland for the Wilding Shield by winning seven matches to five.  Canterbury had established a firm lead on the first day by winning three singles and two doubles against the loss of one singles.  To-day was a day of surprises and incidents.  The Aucklanders made a great recovery by winning three of the singles, which brought the score to 5-4 in favour of the challenging team.  At this stage there was an unusual happening.

1. D. Brown, Canterbury who was leading 6-4 and 4-3 against J. T. Mayson,

Auckland, slipped on the baseline and dislocated his shoulder.  This caused an adjournment of more than an hour when Brown returned and finished the match by winning in straight sets.

With the matches at 6-4 in favour of Canterbury, the result was dependent on the two doubles events, when Angus and Pattinson won their match against Gunn an Bedford.  The issue was beyond doubt, and with Brown playing under difficulties on an adjoining court, he Canterbury pair defaulted.

Results:-

Singles.

1. F. Bedford (Auckland) beat R. G. Pattinson (Canterbury), 6-3, 6-1.
2. G. Stuart (Auckland) beat A. R. Cant (Canterbury), 7-5, 7-5.

4. W. Cant (Auckland) beat C. Angus (Canterbury), 6-3, 4-6, 6-4.
5. D. Brown (Canterbury) beat J. T. Mayson (Auckland), 6-4, 8-6. Doubles.
6. Angus and R. G. Pattinson (Canterbury) beat J. W. Gunn and N. F. Bedford (Auckland), 6-3, 1-6, 6-2.
7. G. Stuart and J. T. Mayson (Auckland) beat A. D. Brown and A. R. Cant (Canterbury), 6-2, the latter pair then defaulting.

AUTO-INTOXICATION   Enemy of Beauty

A well-known physician says “Beauty destroying and dangerous poisons may be

manufactured within the body itself, and are absorbed into the blood

circulation.  This briefly is the meaning of Auto-intoxication.”

You can have the beauty of a perfect completion and keep it always if you will

remember that loveliness comes from within.  Only pure, clean blood can give you a clear, radiant skin.

Eno’s ‘Fruit Salt’, the famous household remedy for digestive ailments and

disorders, is an ideal means to this end.  It ensures the elimination of poisons from the blood and therefore from the skin.  Begin each day with a pleasant sparkling glass of ‘Fruit Salt’ and you will keep youthfully attractive. Eno Now Costs only 2/-Double Quantity 3/6.

PIONEER BRITISH PRODUCER “CLEAN BROKE”

Mr. Julius Hagan, pioneer British film producer, who has made more than 136

pictures, says that unless he can find money and work he will be made bankrupt. This squarely built, quietly spoken man said: “I am on the floor-clean broke.  I have done no work for 18 months.  I have been living all that time on the charity of friends.

“I’ve known poverty before.  I can remember when I had to walk from Clapham to Wardour street to save bus fare.  I’m not afraid of that.  But if I had been allowed to continue work I think we should have been on top now. “As a result of receivers being in, it is said “Hagan is incompetent.”  Well, am I?”

He ran through some of his successes – Edward Everett Horton’s “Private

Secretary” and “Man in the Mirror”; Conrad Veidt’s “Wandering Jew”; Sir Seymour Hicks in “Scrooge”, two Flanagan and Allen talkies; Jack Hylton with his band in “She Shall Have Music; Gracie Fields in “This Week of Grace.”  All money-makers. he went on:  “We spent £3-million making my 150 pictures in eight years, it was a profit-making business.

“Film production absorbs tremendous sums without immediate return.  I was placed in the position where I had to get £2000 for one of my companies to carry on. The cheque was not met.  The receivers arrived instead.

“Everything went – my personal capital of £8000, my life policies amounting to

£31000 (the receivers obtained a surrender value of £7200), even the £7000 I had by working 16 to 20 hours a day.”

NOTABLE ENGLISH CAST FOR “WUTHERING HEIGHTS”

Samuel Goldwyn has engaged Flora Robson and Laurence Olivier for important roles in his forthcoming production of “Wuthering Heights,” which will star Merle Oberon.  Miss Robson is already in America, Mr Olivier is due in Hollywood in a few days.

The Emily Bronte classic, which has been adapted for the screen by Charles MacArthur and Ben Hecht, is being directed by William Wyler.

RADIO DETECTIVE COMES TO THE SCREEN

The first of a series of Inspector Hornleigh films, based on the famous

detective character of the B.B.C.’S “Monday Night at Seven,” is now being made

by Twentieth Century-Fox, at the Pinewood studios, writes the film correspondent of the London Observer.

Gordon Harker is to play Hornleigh, and Alastair Sim his assistant, Sergeant

Bingham, Eugene Forde, director of three Charlie Chan pictures and associated

with eight others, has been brought over from America to direct the film.

This translation of a 14-minute radio idea into a film that will run for

something like an hour and a-quarter is provided a challenge that everybody

concerned is taking very seriously.  H. W. Priwin, the inventor of Hornleigh,

Bryan Wallace, who is writing the script, Forde, and Harker himself are applying themselves to this materialism of a phantom figure as gravely as though they were solving a problem in higher mathematics.  They realise very well that the least slip in making a live man of Hornleigh will estrange the millions who form their potential audience.

Providing a Background.

The B.B.C., in the short time at their command, have to concentrate on a single clue, a single piece of cross-examination.  The film with its larger canvas has to add clue to clue until the last one slips into place and completes the jig-saw puzzle.  More challenging still, they have to round out a character which has no existent background beyond the sound effects of train and car and office telephones.

“The audience has no idea what sort of fellow Hornleigh is,” says Eugene Forde. “They don’t know whether he is married, where he lives, what sort of ties he wears, if he smokes cigarettes or a pipe, or anything about him.  On the screen we have got to give him a background, make him human – and sometimes fallible. Nobody in the world really like an infallible detective.  And he has got to be a nice, natural fellow – the sort of man you wouldn’t mind asking home for supper. That was the whole secret of the Charlie Chan series.  Nobody would have minded having that little Chinese home for the evening.”

So Gordon Harker is playing Hornleigh straight, without Cockney comedy.  Just a straightforward, hard-working detective who does his routine too intelligently; a neatly-dressed fellow with a dry sense of humour, who has obviously, but not too obviously, risen from the ranks.

World-Wide Popularity

For a fictional character only 13 months old, Inspector Hornleigh has had a

career only equalled by the Disney creations in popularity.  He came into

existence in Coronation week, and since then, loyally nursed by Douglas Moodie and Harry Pepper, producers of “Monday Night at Seven,” he has been heard in 45 broadcasts from Portland Place, and looks like going on there until he is old and hoary.

The Hornleigh sketches are now broadcast in 17 countries, and in all the

Dominion and colonies.  They have been translated into nine languages, and are being broadcast for the first time this winter over the B.B.C. network in America.

In every country except Holland the setting remains Scotland Yard, and the hero retains his original name of Hornleigh.  In Holland the settings are Dutch, and the detective is named Vlijmacherp (“sharp as a needle”).

Hornleigh Merchandise.

Mr Priwin, the author, has been so overwhelmed by the success of his invention that he has had to form a limited company to deal with the Hornleigh merchandise.  There are Hornleigh cigarettes in France, and Hornleigh cigarette cards in England.  There is to be a Hornleigh hat, and a brand of shoes carrying a Hornleigh advertisement.  He himself has a Hornleigh novel ready for spring publication, and a Hornleigh play, which has already toured the provinces,

coming to London this winter.

Apart from all this, he has had to answer a mail of 120,000 Hornleigh letters to date.

Mr Priwin is by profession a political journalist.  He came into what he calls

“the Hornleigh racket” by chance, over supper and a cigarette with John Watt, of the B.B.C. variety department, two years ago.

It occurred to them that what England liked better than anything else was a

gamble, something to bet on, something from pin-tables to football pools, to

give them the thrill of being right or wrong, winning or losing.

Mr Priwin frankly admits that he knows little of the inner workings of Scotland Yard.  He gets his information from books, and relies for specialised knowledge on his local police station and his local chemist.  Bright young chemists of his acquaintance have got into the habit of ringing him up, telling him of the quickest and least detectable poisons.

The local constabulary of North London are no longer surprised when he walks into the charge-room and asks whether they could charge him at say, Highgate, for a murder that has has committed in High Wykeham.  He prefers this sort of thing, he says, to writing political articles in Geneva.  He feels that, on the whole,he is moving in a more satisfactory and practical world.

 

“GRACIE” POPULAR IN AMERICA

Gracie Fields has taken Hollywood by storm with what the film city calls her “democratic, open-hearted manner.

She was given a motor-car complete with resplendent chauffeur and footman to go on a shopping trip.  But Gracie dismissed the lot and spent the whole day sightseeing alone, riding on top of double-decker ‘buses and tramcars, and visiting her rich and poor neighbours.

The other night, when all Hollywood was attending a preview, Gracie went walking down Hollywood Boulevard looking at the Christmas decorations. Afterwards she told Monte Banks, who is to direct her new picture, that she had had a “world of fun.”

Twentieth Century-Fox Studios have disclosed that her next picture is to be

called “Shipyard Sally.”  It will go into production in London shortly after the New Year.  Will Fyffe is the only other member of the cast selected so far.

Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland are the juvenile stars of “Love Finds Andy Hardy.”  Lewis Stone also has a prominent role.

PADEREWSKI TO MAKE ANOTHER FILM

Ignace Paderewski, famous pianist and ex-Premier of Poland, is reported to be going to Hollywood to make a film.

When Paderewski starred in “Moonlight Sonata” in England, little stir was caused in British film circles.

Padereswki said: “I have given my best-loved numbers in this film and I have nothing to offer the screen as an actor.”

American audiences, however, have fallen more readily under the spell of his screen playing.  “Moonlight Sonata” ran for 18 weeks in Hollywood, and Padereswki is said to have consented to make one more film.

 

Grace Swarthout has finished her contract with Paramount and left Hollywood for a six months’ concert tour.

Twentieth Century-Fox’s first musical picture for 1939 will be “Shooting High” with Tony Martin, Joan Davis and Marjorie Weaver.

[photograph]

Don Ameche and Arleen Whelan appear together in the principle roles of

“Gateway,” a drama of Ellis Island, where the United States “entertain”

deportees and unwanted immigrants.  The cast also includes Gilbert Roland, John Carradine, Maurice Moscovich and Binnie Barnes.

 

DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES

“There is one thing I would like to make quote clear,” says Charles Laughton, “and that is that I love acting for the films.  Nevertheless, the one great disadvantage is that, so far as the player is concerned, it lacks all the continuity of the stage play.  It is difficult, when you are building up units of anything from thirty seconds to three minutes, to keep the whole thing in proportion.  I personally try to get over this difficulty by having some one read through with me each night the whole of the script as far as we have gone, so that I do not lose my grasp of the function of my part I am playing and also can keep my work the following day in key and in its correct relation to the whole performance.”

The first of a new series of detective stories will shortly be released by

British Empire Films, when “James Lee Wong,” in the person of Boris Karloff, will make his initial bow in “Mr. Wong, Detective”.

Herbert Marshall, Virginia Bruce and Mary Astor are cast in the principal roles of “Woman Against Woman.”

DIGNIFIED ROLES FOR ANNE NEAGLE

Anna Neagle will not, after all, appear as Marie Lloyd in the film biography of the famous music-hall artist.

This announcement was made by Herbert Wilcox, Miss Neagle’s producer, on the eve of their departure for New New York to attend the opening of “Sixty Glorious Years” at the Radio City Music Hall.

“It is largely in response to letters of protest from all over the country,” he states, “that I have decided to drop the subject for Miss Neagle.  Judging by these letters, the success of “Victoria the Great” and Sixty Glorious Years’ has apparently established her as pre-eminently an artist for the family audience. “I am afraid that the appearance of Miss Neagle as Marie Lloyd might prove a disappointment to this type of audience, and also, in the circumstances, it would hardly be possible to do full justice to the grand character of Marie Lloyd herself.  I intended to go ahead with a film of Marie Lloyd’s life, and I shall look around for an actress I can cast more fittingly for the role.” In the meantime Mr Wilcox will discuss with important film interests in New York another part that would seem to be a more suitable successor to Queen Victoria for Miss Neagle’s next picture.

SEVERE CRITICISM

The English Film Weekly says the [the] New Zealand film “On the Friendly Road,” the cast of which includes the Rev. C. G. Scrimgeour, Stanley Knight, John Mackie, Jean Hamilton, James Swan, Neville Goodwin, James Martin, Arnold Goodwin, Harold Metcalfe, Allan Leonard, Wharepaia and Kahu: “Unfortunately, there is little one can say in praise of this crude production of an artless little melodrama from New Zealand.

“The story is naive and clumsily told.  The acting is wholly amateurish.”

Man Fined for Removing a Tuatara   RARE PROSECUTION   Serious View Taken

(By Telegraph – Press Association)   BLENHEIM, Last Night.

A rare prosecution figured on the list in the Magistrate’s Court to-day, when Phillip Shand, a Pelorus Sound farmer, was charged with taking an absolutely protected animal, a tuatara lizard.

The chief ranger for the Marlborough Acclimatisation Society stated that Shand removed the lizard from Trio Island off the mouth of Pelorus Sound on November 15, took it home to show members of his family, said he then went to work at Kaikoura, leaving instructions that the reptile, a large specimen, be returned to the island.  In the meantime the ranger received an anonymous letter to the effect that someone had removed a tuatara from the island.  After extensive

inquiries the reptile was located at Shand’s farm.

A serious aspect of the case, said the ranger, was that tuataras were

practically extinct, Trio being one of the few islands where they are now found. The Internal Affairs Department was very anxious to preserve them.  In fact the Blenheim Beautifying organisation had made an application to the Minister to

retain a lizard in captivity at a park, but permission has been refused. The Magistrate, Mr. T. B. ?? imposed a fine of ??

AMUSEMENTS

REGENT THEATRE   “SERVICE DE LUXE” – TO-NIGHT.

Constance Bennett heads the outstanding cast of “Service De Luxe.” which screens at the Regent Theatre, Hastings, to-night, and which introduces to audiences Vincent Price, a screen newcomer, Mischa Auer, Charlie Ruggles and Helen Broderick also contribute their fine performances to the fast past comedy situations.  Vincent Price has gained a high reputation as an actor of exceeding merit in his performance  of Albert opposite Helen Hayes in the stage play, “Victoria Regina,” and now has a fine role opposite Constance Bennett in a film which gives splendid comedy entertainment in the style of the well remembered “Topper,” which also starred Miss Bennett.  “Service De Luxe” was designated to launch the new leading man under the best possible auspices.  The picture casts him as a naive, up-state boy who comes to New York trying to peddle a tractor invention, and falling easily and quickly into the hands of designing women. Miss Bennett will be seen as Dorothy Madison, head of the Dorothy Madison Service, a firm which performs all kinds of personal services for its clients.

 

MUNICIPAL THEATRE   “FIND THE WITNESS” AND “TWO FISTED GENTLEMAN.”

Columbia’s “Find the Witness”, a fast-moving mystery melodrama, revolving about a cleverly conceived murder mystery, will screen at the Municipal Theatre, Hastings, to-night.  Featured in the cast are Charles Quigley and Rosalind Keith.  Quigley appears as a reckless newspaper reporter who goes after a story of a marital mix-up between a temperamental opera star and her magician husband. Rosalind Keith, as the singer’s secretary, constantly blocks his path in his efforts to get the story.  After much excitement, the scene changes to a beach city where the magician is about to stage a stunt of magic.  While he is submerged in a sealed casket, his wife is murdered in a hotel back in town. Rosalind, because of a previous quarrel with the singer, is accused of the murder.  Quigley, who has his suspicions about the real murderer, risks his life to prove his theory and vindicate Rosalind, with whom he has fallen in love. His swift swing from mere news reporter to amateur detective furnishes the powerful climax.  On the same programme is “Two Fisted Gentleman,” with James Dunn and June Clayworth in leading roles.  It is a fast-moving story of a weakling who eventually becomes a ring champion, and is spiced with comedy thrills and action.

COSY THEATRE   GENE AUTRY’S NEW WESTERN, “BOOTS AND SADDLES.”

Gene Autry’s latest picture “Boots and Saddles,” screens at the Cosy Theatre, Hastings, this evening.  The film is bright with catchy songs sung by the singing star, and full of fast action.  Ronnie Sinclair, the New Zealand boy star, has an important part in this production.  He takes the role of “Spud,” the orphaned son of a British Lord, who comes to America to settle his father’s cattle interests.  Neale, an unscrupulous rancher, wants to use the ranch to train horses for the army.  Autry, meanwhile, proposes that Spud do the same thing.  Neale, naturally, furious when he learns his plans are to be thwarted, resorts to foul means to prevent Spud from getting the contract.  When the sealed bids are in, the army colonel decrees that Gene’s bid on behalf of Spud, and Neale’s are so nearly identical that a horse race will have to decide the winner of the contract.  Neale, thereupon, attempts to burn down Gene’s stables, but Gene comes through, and the thrilling finale is a fitting climax.  How a big city was cleared of its racketeers by honest investigators and honest prosecutors is the theme of “Missing Witnesses,” a Warner Bros.’ melodrama featuring John Litel, Dick Purcell and Jean Dale, which is the second feature.

 

STATE THEATRE   BARBARA STANWYCK & HERBERT MARSHALL IN “ALWAYS GOODBYE.”

Beauty is the immediate and all-inclusive definition for “Always Goodbye,” which screens to-morrow at the State Theatre, Hastings.  In the capable hands of co-stars Barbara Stanwyck and Herbert Marshall and under the fine touch of Sidney Lanfield’s direction, “Always Goodbye” acquires the beauty of sheer simplicity in a story that is appealing throughout.  Setting a beautiful tale of modern mother love before a kaleidoscopic background of occasional grimness, sporadic gowns and vivacious, resplendent gowns on Fifth Avenue and in Paris, the film scintillates with the many facets of love that comes to its characters.  Barbara Stanwyck, in love, waits for her eager young man who is speeding to City Hall to marry her.  He is killed as his car crashes into a trolley.  Stunned at the tragedy, she wanders towards the river where Herbert Marshall, a derelict physician, talks her out of a suicide attempt.  She faints and the physician sees that she is taken to a hospital, where her son is born.  Marshall’s sincere love for the brave girl; her love for her child (Johnnie Russell); the temperamental Parisian ardour of Caesar Romero and the ultimate love which brings the story to a suspenseful conclusion create a beautiful saga with a throbbing message for to-day’s womanhood.

“The Goldwyn Follies,” a lavish technicolour musical, screens finally to-night. Adolph Menjou, Andrea Leeds, Edgar Bergen and “Charlie McCarthy”, and Kenny Baker are a few in the outstanding cast of this spectacular film.

MOTORSHIP’S ORDEAL   Arrival in Shelter.   (By Telegraph – Press Association.) AUCKLAND, Last Night.

After experiencing rough conditions on the West Coast on her voyage from

Hokianga to Onehunga the auxiliary motor-vessel Motu rounded North Cape and

arrived this morning in the shelter of Mangonui.  The Motu left Hokianga on

Sunday for Onehunga.  Rough weather then rendered both bars unworkable and the vessel made for the East Coast.

The Motu remained at Mangonui for some hours to-day and left at two o’clock in the afternoon for Auckland, where she is due late to-morrow morning,  She will leave in the afternoon on her return to Hokianga and Onehunga.

OBITUARY

Mrs. E. L. E. Cole

the death occurred yesterday of Mrs. Eunice Lizzie Ester Cole, wife of Mr George Cole of Hastings.  Born in Masterton in 1875 it was not until 25 years ago that Mrs Cole came to Hastings where she married Mr. I. E. Richards, a well-known chemist.  He predeceased her in 1918 and later she married Mr Cole. The late Mrs Cole took a keen interest in welfare work, though her activities were conducted unobtrusively, and she enjoyed a wide circle of friendships throughout the district.

there are left the husband, two  daughters, Mrs J. Nightingale, of Hastings, and Miss M. Richards, of Napier, and three sons, Messrs T. L. Richards and O. M. Richards of Wellington, and W. H. Richards of Napier.

The funeral was held this afternoon, there being a large attendance of

sympathisers and friends at the Catholic Church, and later at the graveside at the Hastings Cemetery.

BRIGHT CRICKET   (By Telegraph – Press Association).  WELLINGTON, Last Night. Some bright cricket was seen in a special match between a Public Service eleven and a team representing the Wellington Cricket Association on the Basin Reserve to-day.  Conditions were ideal for run-getting and during the day 561 runs were scored for the loss of 13 wickets in 380 minutes.  Public Service had first use of the wicket, and Tindill and Crook gave their side a splendid start by putting on 83 for the first wicket.

A feature of the innings was a brilliant 71 hit up by R. J. Kemp in 60 minutes. Then R. K. Hatch, an ex Manawatu representative, took up the role of rapid scorer and reached a century in 73 minutes.

The innings, which lasted 189 minutes, was declared closed when six wickets had fallen for 338 runs.  Hatch was unbeaten with an even hundred.  The Wellington bowlers came in for severe punishment, R. W. Coupland and M. Browne being the most successful of the seven tried.

The Wellington eleven’s innings was in marked contract to the bright batting of the Public Service team.  Good bowling by T. Downes (ex Manawatu player), the fast left-hander, R. Crook, and B. J. Champness kept the batsmen very subdued. After scoring 31 in 88 minutes, C. D. Dempster played one from Crook on to his sticks.  The Leicestershire County captain had never looked comfortable. Thereafter the only batsman who showed resolution was C. K. Parsloe who played very soundly.  It took him 71 minutes to reach the half century, but he speeded up after this and ran to the century in 126 minutes.

Stumps were drawn with the score at 223 for seven wickets, the match resulting

in a draw.  Downes, Crook and Champness, all bowlers of pace, kept a good length and gave few runs away.  Each secured two wickets.  Tindill kept wickets well for Public Service, catch two batsmen and stumping one and only allowing five extras.

Absence of eyestrain keeps people young, and fit for interesting and

remunerative work – at 40 and many years after.  Mr H. M. Bennett, Mr B. M.

THE HAWKE’S BAY HERALD TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1939.                                                    7 Need to Arrest Land Deterioration

STATE INQUIRY   SECOND AND THIRD-CLASS SHEEP COUNTRY   (By Telegraph-Press

Association)   WELLINGTON, Last Night.

As assurance that he would put the proposal before Cabinet and see what could be done to hold an inquiry, was given by the Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage, when replying yesterday and to-day to a deputation from the New Zealand Farmers’ Union and to the New Zealand Sheepbreeders’ Federation which asked for an authoritative inquiry into the deterioration of second and third class land. “The question is one that the Government will have to face up to in the very near future,” Mr. Savage said.  “We will get somebody to run a rule over the position to see what we can do.”

The deputation, which was led by the president of the Farmers’ Union, Mr. W. W. Mulholland, and the president of the Sheepowners’ Federation, Mr. H. D. Ackland, was heard also by the Minister of Lands, Hon. F. Langstone, the Minister of Agriculture, Hon. W. Lee Martin, and the Minister of Labour, Hon. P. C. Webb. Mr. Mulholland presented the following motion carried earlier in the day at a joint meeting of the two organisations: “That this meeting of representatives of the New Zealand Farmers’ Union and the New Zealand Sheepowners’ Federation, in view of the deterioration of second and third class country which is steadily going out of production, asks for a complete, impartial and authoritative inquiry into the factors affecting the farmers’ ability to maintain this land in a production state.  We are of the opinion that neglect of this problem must result in a serious drop in production which will eventually react against the country as a whole.”

“I want to make clear we are not here out of any political motive whatsoever,” Mr. Mulholland said.  “We have not come to criticise the Government, but we are concerned as farmers with the position on what is known as second and third class sheep country.  On this class of country, a great part of the expenditure is for the purpose of maintaining its production power.  It is possible to reduce maintenance and expenditure on farms for one, two or perhaps more years according to the type of land, without that being immediately reflected in returns.  Nevertheless it is a very serious thing eventually, because it is not only going to reduce the annual return from the land, but also reduce the power of the land to make a return.  It is gradually wiping out a national asset.”

Importers Prepare for Conference   1000 TO ATTEND   Discussion with Minister

(By Telegraph – Press Association.)   WELLINGTON, Last Night.

Between 700 and 1000 business-men from all parts of New Zealand are expected to attend the conference to be held in Wellington next week, to discuss the import control regulations.

The Auckland party alone will total about 300 and the conference will be opened at 10 a.m. on Wednesday and will continue that night and the following day.  The Minister of Customs, Hon. W. Nash, will address the conference and later will

answer questions.

Business firms are now returning forms to the office of the Associated Chambers of Commerce, giving particulars of how their applications for licenses have been treated.  From this information an analysis is being prepared for submission to the conference.

On Friday the Council of the United Kingdom Manufacturers and New Zealand

Representatives’ Association is holding a conference with the president and some of the executive members of the New Zealand Farmers’ Union to discuss the regulations.

Wholesale bootsellers are among the Wellington firms still without licenses.

Soft-goods firms to-day were reluctant to comment as how their applications had been received, stating they were still awaiting clarification of certain points.

PROVINCES SUFFER   Six-Monthly Period   (By Telegraph – Press Association.) NEW PLYMOUTH, Last Night.

The import regulations in the present form would bear more harshly on the

provincial centres than on the four main centres, in the opinion of Mr. E. C. Hayton, president of the Taranaki Chamber of Commerce.

In an interview last night Mr. Hayton commented that a period of one year would be preferable to a six-monthly period.  The short period of six months in import regulations would bear more harshly at provincial centres he said.  Vessels loaded in England for such ports as Timaru and New Plymouth only every three or four months.  If licenses were not granted in time to ensure a shipment by direct steamer, a six-monthly period would be entirely lost to the business firms concerned.

“I trust that the Minister of Customs, Hon. W. Nash, will consider this aspect between now and the conference to be held at Wellington next week,” he added.

Heavier Penalty Urged for Car Conversion   OFFENCES INCREASING

Auckland Motorists May Form Voluntary Patrols   (By Telegraph – Press

Association).    AUCKLAND, Last Night.

Concern at the great number of motor-car conversions that were occurring

throughout the Dominion was expressed by members of the Automobile Association (Auckland) at a meeting to-night when considering a recommendation on the subject from the secretary, Mr. G. W. Hutchison.  Several Speakers were of the opinion that Court penalties should be heavier so that there would be a greater

deterrent to offenders.

Mr. Hutchison recommended that a deputation be appointed to wait upon the

Superintendent of Police at Auckland to ascertain whether adequate steps were

taken for the protection of motorists’ property.  If it was found that there was insufficient protection, he suggested the association consider the formation of a voluntary corps of patrols among members, who would hunt down car thieves immediately a theft was reported and follow up every case to see that it was properly dealt with.

“I think it can be contended that the recrudescence of this type of crime is

largely due to the fact that those responsible think that they will not be

severely punished if apprehended,” Mr. Hutchison stated.  “Although the law does not regard this crime as a theft but merely as wrongful conversion, the fact remains that in most cases expensive damage is done to the car with no possibility of collecting the amount from the party responsible.” Penalties Not Severe Enough.

Mr. Hutchison said he felt certain that there would be no difficulty in getting 100 or 200 members to enrol and cover a section of the city and suburbs in every case where a theft of a member’s car was reported.

“This is a most serious matter,” said the chairman, Mr. F. G. Farrell.  “For a period of approximately five weeks, from the beginning of December, upwards of

40 cars were stolen or converted in the Auckland metropolitan area.”  If

something was not done by the authorities, either the Police or the Government, then sooner or later loss of lift would result from these escapades. Several members stressed the fact that the penalties so far inflicted were not heavy enough, although it was pointed out that magistrates had power to punish the offenders severely.

Mr. Hutchison’s recommendation was adopted.

QUEER AMERICAN WILLS  Millions Tied Up in Useless Funds  DONORS’ LACK OF VISION Men of wealth should have some responsibility to the nation, if only in self-protection.  State constitutions make it possible, now, for the State to step in and control an endowment which is getting so creaking and full of barnacles that it is of no value.  But they cannot control those millions upon millions which are tied up in funds established before these constitutions were amended. A great number of wealthy men, and an even greater number of wealthy women, are on bad terms with their relatives.  Sometimes they don’t speak.  Frequently there is litigation even before death occurs.

Most people know merely that Charles Vane Miller left 500,000 dollars to the woman in Toronto would could produce the most children in the succeeding ten years.

How many people know that he also left a huge block of shares in a prosperous brewery to a well-known Toronto temperance advocate!  That he owned a large interest in a race track which his will dumped into the lap of a prominent churchman and reformer who was out to close up the place!

He had relatives, too.  They tried to break his will.  But the late Mr. Miller was an attorney and a good one, and his will was sustained by the Ontario courts.

The unexpected should be provided for in drawing up a will, but it seldom is. New Jersey Zinc stock was just a name to a little old lady in a tiny rural collage in New York State.  Her husband had owned it, and in her will she left it to the town to maintain a little bell tower; perhaps buy a book or two, and start a small town library in it.  She died in 1913.

At the outset of the war up went zinc till in 1918 the company cut up the whole by declaring as a dividend 72 per cent of the company’s entire capitalisation. The town bought books until the good folk couldn’t turn around in the place. The town appealed to the courts to use the accumulated money to build a modern library building.  It was refused.  The courts sadly held that the widow had specified “that tower”, it was “that tower” or nothing.

Stephen Girard, a name on a cigar box to-day, was the wealthiest man in

Philadelphia in 1880.  He was a famous old skinflint who had eccentric ideas

about education.  At his death in 1881 he left 2,000,000 dollars to establish a new kind of college.

The students were to be orphan boys of poor parents.  Girard designed all the buildings himself, and made the architect build them out of pure while marble.

Ministers Barred

They were draughty, hard to heat, poorly ventilated, and full of echoes, but

they were built according to his wishes without changing so much as a door-knob. There was a wall around the property, 14in. thick and 10ft. high, containing two gates, both well guarded.  That was to keep out ministers.

“No minister,” he wrote in his instructions, “of any sect,” was to be permitted on the grounds.  This was “to keep the tender minds of the orphans who are to derive benefit from this bequest free from the excitement which clashing doctrines and sectarian controversy are apt to produce.”  And that provision of the will has been faithfully kept.

Part of the endowment was a tract of land along the Schuylkill River.  The

trustees grumbled about paying taxes on it, but in 1930 a rich vein of

anthracite was opened on this land and rapidly developed.  Millions of dollars

went in the Girard trust fund.  In 1907, with an enrolment of 1521 students, the trustees spent 526,452 dollars for more marble buildings; since then more millions.  But even in the depths of the depression, with the vast anthracite industry crushed, Girard trustee still had 77,000,000 dollars of fund intact and nothing much to spend it on.

The great Benjamin Franklin left one-quarter of his net estate, about 50,000

dollars, to two trust funds to lend to apprentices who were working long years

at no wages, to learn the trades of that era.

They had to have something to live on; it was the heyday of the loan-shark and apprentices sometimes had to pawn their earnings for years.

Franklin set up these funds to loan out both principal and interest at five per cent.  At the end of 100 years, he figured he would have 680,000 dollars in the two funds.  He made strict provisions about what to do with this accumulated money.  Boston was to use its share to provide some new fortifications of the Charles River.  Philadelphia was to build a municipal water system, which Franklin had sorely needed along with all the other merchants and residents of the old city.

At the end of 100 years, the Philadelphia fund had only 90,000 dollars in it

because of laxity in connections.  The Boston fund was intact, with 391,000

dollars.  But neither the water system no the fortifications were built with

Franklin’s money.  Both had been built many years before.  The apprentice system had gone, along with the cobblestone pavement.

Alexander Hamilton, who planned America’s future, had no lesser vision.

Practising law in New York after his retirement from the Treasury, he drew a will for a man of wealth named Robert Richard Randall.

Randall owned a farm near New York, and he would like to do something for the

poor, aged seamen who had made him rich as a shipowner.  Hamilton suggested that the income from that farm be devoted to maintaining a home to which all elderly American merchant seamen might retire.

Hamilton’s idea was all right, except that he overlooked the significant fact that the farm lay along the old road between New York and Harlem, and that it includes most of what is now mid-town Manhattan.  Randall’s stone farmhouse stood on the site of what looks to-day like a much more ancient old relic -Loew’s New York Theatre.  It was appraised at his death at the high sum of 25,000 dollars, and about now the Board of Governors of the Sailors’ Snug Harbour Foundation are banking a million dollars a year, and more, in income alone.

This wealth is purely accidental; nobody foresaw it and no provision was made for a constructive use of this mammoth fortune.  The number of seamen who are eligible for the home maintained by the fund on Staten Island is dropping year by year.  The income is rising.  What will the balance sheet look like in another 100 years?

These men of wealth, from the most remote colonial times up to the present, made their money because the opportunities they found in the United States made it possible.  They amassed millions, and those millions should somehow return to their points of origin in widespread benefits that help everyone. Carnegie, Russell Safe, Murray, and Daniel Guggenheim, Rockefeller, Julian Rosenwald created scientifically  administered philanthropies.  Rosenwald’s foundation, to-day, is regard internationally as a model.  He consulted directors and sociologists; he sent a draft of the text of his deed of gift to other philanthropists for advice.

He learned what not to do.

 

VALUELESS CHEQUES   Man Gives Himself Up To Police   Auckland, Last Night.

Calling at the police station yesterday, Herbert James Ladbrook, aged 30,

carrier, gave himself up.  He had travelled from Central Australia, and had

walked many of the 4000 miles to return to his wife and family in Auckland.

Later he pleaded guilty in the Magistrate’s Court to four charges of obtaining

in March last £19 in money and goods valued at £? by means of valueless cheques. In a statement to the police Ladbrook said he went to Australia in March last year by the Monterey.  He admitted cashing valueless cheques in Auckland shortly before his departure.  He had expected a sum of money to be deposited to the credit of his banking account.  He had been drinking heavily and had been laid up for two months in Australia with a poisoned leg.  He was no anxious to have all the matters cleared up.

The magistrate said had it no been for accused’s wife and three young children, he would probably have ordered reformative detention.  However, he would admit him to probation for two years, conditional on his maintaining his wife and family.

“You ought to be thoroughly ashamed of yourself.” added the magistrate in

ordering restitution of £19.
