Simul- taneously on Friday evening the greater part of the town of Britannia Mines of Hoxve Sound was wiped out by a flood and the Fraser Valley just east of Vancouver was flooded. Says God’s Providence Won the War and Will Preside at Conference. “Conditions in France are still very dPiStressing, owing to the neces- sity of reconstruction and the tricks which the Germans employ to avoid fulfilling their promises. They are trying to escape responsibilities by evading their obligations." MARSHALL FOCH ON VISIT TO THE STATES A despatoh from on Board the Steamship Paris saysâ€"“God’s provi- dence won the war; I feel that the Sta/me providence will help settle afterâ€"the-wavr conditions, and that it will preside at the conference of Ila:- tfionls at Washington,” declared Mar- shal Foch on Thursday, a‘ddtinvg with a smile, "A condition que nous soyons sages” (provided we are wise). Passing often unrecognized in his tweed cap and black-amped mat, the famous soldier takes long promenâ€" ades around the decks before and after each meal. He is extremely galâ€" lant and has visitors every afternoon. Most of his associates ’have been con- verted to smoking a pipe, having heeded the Marshall’s 'tirades against cigaxrs, “which distress you, hurt your head and are more dangerous than a pipe.” f‘I am enjoying every minute of my finst sea voyage,” he said. “The first real rest I have had since the be- ginning of the war.” The Marshal is proving an excellent saibor and was among the few pasâ€" sengers who stayed on deck, although the Paris was ro’lfldng so heavily that he had- to cling to the ropes to keep on his feet. He broke'his rule of dining privately to attend the dinner and concert for the benefit of the ship’s seamen.

The figures are not final, being based upon only a partial list of threshing returns, but are considered fairly representative of the Alberta crop area. The original eatimate was 11 busheflls‘. A desplatch from Edm~onton,‘A1ta., says:â€"An average yield of 16.19 bushels of spring wheat to the acre is indicated by thresh‘ers’ reports that have been received from all parts of the Province by the Department of Agricuflture. ; Refuse to Refund The average for cats is placed at 28.37 bushels, and for barley 22.91 bushels. 10 “The Marshal its in perfect health for his trip through the United States,” said Dr. Andre, the fighter’s physician. “Moderation in everything is accountable for his ruggedneas at the age of seventy.” A despatch from Washington says: â€"â€" The Senate rejected, without a record vote, an amend- ment to the Tax Revision Bill, directing the Secretary of the Treasury to immediately refund foreign loans and calling for the payment of interest by the Al- lied Governments after January 1, 1922. The amendment was offered by Senator McKellar, Democrat, of Tennessee. It “directed” and “instructed” the Secretary of the Treasury to accept long- term bonds from the nations owing the United States $11,- 000,000,000, for both the princi- pal and unpaid interest up to January 1, 1922, in accordance with the Loan Acts of 1917 and 1918.

H O LITTLE ENTENTE DEMANDS GUARANTEES Against Further Efforts to Place a Hapsburg on Throne. ‘ Lend-on, Oct. 30.â€"A Reuter cable from Melbourne says statistics fur- nished *by the Australian Government show that workers Lost £1,250,000 last year in wages through 554 industrial disputes. - Australian Workers Lose £1,750,000 by Strikes A (lespatrch from London says:â€" Extravagant indemnification demands which have 'been made on Hungary by the Little Ententeâ€"Czeoho-Slovakia, Roum'ania and Jugo-‘Slaviaâ€"as the result of (ex-Emperor Charles’ latest attempt to regain the Hungarian throne, will be firmly opposed by the Big Enrtenteâ€"Britain, France and Italy. The Little En'tente not only demands payment from Hungary for their mobilization expenses, but also insists on the right to occupy Burgen- land as a guarantee agaimt any fur- ther efforts to place a prsburg on the Hungarian throne. A despatch from London says:â€" Mrs. McCu'dden, mother 0!! the late Major McCud‘den V.C.., sailed from Liverpool on the éanaxdian. liner Meta- g‘ama on Saturday as the representa- tive of the mothers of Britain to lay a wreath on the grave of America’s unknown soldier on Armistice Day. Mrs. MrcCuddlen ie accompanied by her daughter, Catherine; J. K. Kersley, Chairman, and Gordon Stuart, Secre- tary of the Pilgrim Fathens’ Society. Mrs. McCudeen said before leaving London: “I lost three sons in the war, so the mothers of America who also lost sons are «sure to feel sympathy with me, just as they know how I grieve with them. We will sorrow toâ€" gether, for even the honor of repre- senting the women of Britain at the grave of Amevivoafvs unknown’soldier only makes my own suffering keener. ALlied diplomtic representatives in the Little Entente countries have informally intimated the Allies’ dis»- pleasure at the terms '0'! the ulti- matum to Hungary. When the full terms were officially conveyed to the Allied Governments, the Council of Ambassadors at Paris expected to send a formal protest to the Little Entente. Mrs. McOudden will go direct to New York from Montreal, and then to Washington. Messrs. Kersley and Stuart are go- ing to America to found a ‘branch of the Pil-gu'im Fathers) Society. What '11:! complicating the whole situation is Charles' refusal to abdzi- cate. The Big Entente contends that the Hungarian Government has acted with great promrptitude and? convect- ness in the situation caused by the ex- Empe‘ror’s second bid for: his throne. It maintains that the Little Entente is not justified in claiming an indem- nity from Hungary for mobilization‘s. “Our sons have been takenifrom us, and we, their mothers, are left behind to sufi‘er in remembeving them." It is argued that had Hungary hesiâ€" tated to seize Charles, 011‘ had she acted in an arbitrary manner, there might be justificatim for the claim for indemnification. The occupation of Burgenland is considered absolubely out of the question as a guarantee that no more Hapsburg attempts will be staged. Any such action might in- volve grave risks to the peace of ,Oentral Europe. TO LAY BRITISH WREATH ON U.S. GRAVE Mrs. McCudden Will Repre- sent Women of Britain on Armistice Day.

A pilot must be chosen possessing the neces- sary courage, foresight, breadth of vision and determination to lead the nation safely out of the existing economic uncertainty._ Professor A. D. Skelton, of Queen’s University, and biographer of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, wrote ofi the present Prime Minister :â€" “ He has already given proof of high administrative capacity. His personal integrity is beyond question." 'And one man stands out head and shoulders above all others as pre-eminently fitted for the task.
