earning classes, was the subject aie
" cussed this week at a meeting convened

and held at Penlson House. Vauxhall

vored legislative control of betting-, but
others contended that It could not bo

Iha following resolution was
adopted::

versely affected by the publication ani

Lord Sanderson, in a letter said:

the prevalence of gambling operates

vate the condition of the poor, must
" fel It is a question in which the Cbar-
ity Organisation Society is deeply in-
terested. At the same time we have to
remember that we are aiming at a most
difficult kind of social reform, and
must be content with slow progresa
. . The most that we can hope for in the
way of legislation la the enactment of
measures to restrict the offer of in
ducements and facilities for gambling.
- and to repress the operations of book-
makers."

Lord Newton made a speech In the
course of which he pointed out that a
committee of the House of Lords, whtch
Included a bishop, came to the conclu
sion that betting was not a crime In
Itself, and. that private betting was
Impossible to stop. In his view, the
- only practical course to adopt was to
regulate it. He would like to regulate
It by taxing bookmakers so that they
wauM nnt find It a remunerative occu
pation. But there were objections to
that course, one being that English
' governments were, as a rule, credited
elsewhere with that quality of hypo
crisy with which foreign governments
were always anxious to dissociate tnem
selvea. Tbey must make betting less

AIR SERVICE IS DEVELOPED
French Mar Of Hoe Establishes
Many Stations on Yontier.
. PARIS. April 1J. Special.) The
7 National Committee for Military A vi-
at!on has Issued Its report upon the re-
suits of the year's work. The comtnlt
" tee was formed by private Individuals
- who were of the opinion that the air
service of the Army was not being
T sufficiently developed. In order to
- remedy this state of affairs a national
subscription was raised for the benefit
- of military aviation, the proceeds of
which have been devoted to increasing
the aeroplane fleet of France, training
pilots, and establishing a network of
aeroplane landing stations throughout
the country.
. Eight hundred thousand dollars has
been collected by tha committee. The
" committee has already presented 73
, aeroplanes to the Army, and Intends to
present about 100 more machines in
the course of the year. Seventy thous-
and dollars has been devoted to the
foundation of 7 aviation scholarships.
, and by June next the committee will
have given 7 trained airmen to the
1 Army.
" . Tee Minister of War has approved a
J scheme submitted by the committee for
. '. the establishment of 35 military avla-
lion stations, situated chiefly on. the
7 Katern frontier, on the execution of
which tbe committee Is spending 100.-
These stations are being estab-
llshed In large open spaces provided by
- ' the local authorities. The sheds, which
are being built according to the plans
of the War Office, will be kept in re
C ' pair by local subscriptions, and airmen
will soon have a very complete network
, of stations to which they will be able
m to descend for petrol or supplies.

GERMAN' SUPERIORITY SEEN
Parliamentary Committee Appointed
to Investigate "Sky Bombard
ment" of Paris Feared in
Case of Conflict.
PARIS. April 12. (Special.) For
ome time oast there has been an on
easy feeling In French aeronautical
circles that military aviation la not
quite what It should be. Aviation
officers themselves complained that
the discipline in the aviation depots
was not satisfactory, that the mach
lnea were not looked after with the
necessary care, and that the whole aer
vice was handicapped by red tape.
As a result of these complaints a Par
liamentary Committee was appointed
to Inquire Into the whole question, and
It Is expected that Its report will be
published -shortly.
The Inferiority of France to Germany
In the matter of lighter-than-alr mach
ines Is admitted, and It la all the mora
surprising, since the General Staff has
again and again expressed Its convic
tion that the airship, especially the
large airship of over 10.000 cubic
meters is still a necessity for the
modern army. Tenders have been In
vited for very powerful dirigibles, and
a certain number of them are now on
order the original programme pro
vided for six airships of 17.000 cubic
meters each, provided with a total
motor power of about 1000 horse power
but aeronauts are disagreeably sur
prised to find that, so far as la known.
none of these atrsnips win ne avail
able for a considerable period.
In the "Temps" General de Lacrolx
drawa attention to this unsatisfactory
state of affairs. Germany, ne points
out. has more than twenty airships
with a cublo capacity of 20.000 metres
and a speed of nearly 60 miles an
hour, and capable of carrying machine
guns. Such dirigibles can fly at a
altitude, and being able to carry
a load of several tons for several days.
Moreover, Germany can in any one
year construct sufficient airships to in
crease her existing fleet by one-half.
Franca has no airship, of over 9000
cubic metres displacement capable of
traveling over S milea an hour, ine
writer points out that In case of war
France must be prepared for an aerial
attack, such as the bombardment of

possibility of it were not reallxed be
forhand. might have the most serlons
moral effect. He suggests that France
must be In a position to take the
offensive against the German aerial
fleet first, with aeroplanes specially
preDared for this duty, and secondly.
by adapting tbe existing artillery tor
aerial fire, and finally, by the con
struction of a fleet of powerful air
ships. The "Temps" draws the attention of
its readers to the proposed Increases in
the German Army, and declares that
France must follow this example
while remaining absolutely pacinc.
like Germany. It urges the author
ities to allow no political considera
tions to binder them from acting Im
mediately, and suggests that a series
of conferences recently held between
the Premier and the Ministers for war
and Foreign Affairs and Finance shows
that the Government Is ready to ac
complish Its duty.
The Ministry of "War has ordered
from a private firm two non-rigid dir
igibles of 20.000 cubic metres displace
ment driven by four motors of 150
borsepower each. These airabips are
to be ready In eight months
Some months ago a number of news
paper proprietors and private people
subscribed for a present to tbe French
nation in the form of aeroplanes.
An official letter published by the
National Committee, which received
subscriptions and bad the aeroplanes
built was published today. Seventy
two aeroplanes, all fitted with the lat
est military requirements, were the
fruits of the subscription. The "Jour
nal" presented three monoplanes, each
of which carries two passengers; the
"Petit Parlaien" presented three, and
most of the ether newspapers In Paris
presented one or more.

CHOICE OF MATE COSTLY
Irish Girl Defies Father's Will and
Loses Cattle.
DUBLIN. April 12. (Special.) The
question of a girl's right to marry the
man of her choice came before the
Chancery Division in Dublin recently,
on an application by Miss Angela Ken-
drlck. of Knockeely. Tipperary, for an
order to prevent the executors of her
father's will from selling cattle off the
farm on which she lived.
By his will the father directed that
his eldest daughter (the plaintiff)
should have the farm and stock on It,
"providing she settles down in life in
accordance with the wishes of my ex
ecutors. If she marries without their
approval, tbey shall have power to
turn her out and pay her 13000, less
the cost of any proceedings that might
be taken to eject her." In such an
event the farm was to go to the
younger daughters, who are still min
ora Counsel for the executors said the
young woman under the will took no
interest in the farm until she elected
whether she would marry or settle
down on the farm. She was only 24,
and had another year to make up her
mind. s
Mr. Slattery, plaintiffs uncle, and
one of the executors, said Miss Ken-
drick wanted to marry a person of
whom he and his co-executor did not
approve an objectionable party, who
had nothing. He told her, said wit
ness, that she could take any one of
five or six respectable people she her
self selected, but that they could not
consent to her marriage to this man.
She absolutely defied us, added wit
ness, "ana said sne wouhi not.
His lordship refused to stop the sale.

remaining amount will eventually be
taken by French private Individuals.
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM ISSUE
Balkan Allies Would Include Gnar-
' antee in Treaty of Peace.
VIENNA. April 6. (Special.) There
la reason to believe that the Balkan
allies Intend to Include' In the treaty
of peace a guarantee of religious free
dom, drafted on the lines of article 62
of tbe Treaty of Berlin, but modified In
accordance with tbe altered circum
stances.
The question seems not yet to bave
been considered whether any other
sanction of this Indispensable guaran
tee than that afforded by the ratifica
tion of tbe treaty by the powers will
prove to be expedient.

Improvements at Reykjavik and tbe
building of a railway. The port works
are calculated to cost 2,000.000 kroner
(about 1655.000) and will take three to

Tbe Icelandic Parliament has already
voted a credit for surveys for a line
of railway from Reykjavik to Thlng

CHRISTCHURCH. New Zealand.
March 15. (Special.) The mercantile
world In New Zealann has been oonsld
erably exercised lately by the first
orosecution under the Commercial
Trusts Act of 1910. A few days ago
the Chief Justice. Sir Robert Stout,
delivered his reserved Judgment In the
case of the Attorney-General of New
Zealand va the New Zealand Merchants'
Association, the Colonial Sugar .Kenn
ing Company, and three otner aeiena'

Each defendant waa ordered to pay
penalties amounting to 15000, and leave
was reserved to the Attorney-ienerai
to move for an injunction to restrain
the defendants from continuing the
course of conduct complained of.
The law which has thus been en
forced for the first time presents
some novel features, and is in many
respects different from the New South
Wales law. which It was recently
sought, but without success, to apply
for the repression of the coal monopoly
In the Australian Commonwealth.
The law is an attempt to grapple
with the difficult Industrial problems
which have arisen from the aggrega
tion of trade into these composite or
ganizations recently come to be known
as trusts, and which are ay many re
garded as a grave menace,
Rnler of State Iavolved.
As stated by Sir Robert Stout in his
judgment, the question really is: "Is
the State to be dominant and to see
that such liberty is granted as makes
for the liberty of all, or must the State
be placed under the control ol large
Industrial organizations r
The Commerce Trusts Act creates a
series of offences, which may be group
ed as follows:
It le lllesal to grant concessions, rebates,
discounts, etc.. In consideration of ex-
elusive trading or In consideration that the
grantee becomes a memoer ox a commercial
trust, or undertakes to act in corformity
wlth-the directions ot a commercial trust
with respect to the sale, purchase or supply
of anv coods.
It Is an offense to refuse to sell either
absolutely or except upon disadvantageous
conditions goods to any person for the rea
son that such a person refuses to restrict
his dealing or to become a member of a
commercial trust or to act in conformity
with the directions of such trust with re
spect to the sale, purchase or - supply or
goods.
It Is an offense to conspire wtth any other
nerson to monooollse the demand or supply
of any goods, or to control the price of any
goods if such monopoly or control is contrary
to the public interests.
Trusts Plan to Evade Law.
As soon as the Act passed Into law
.the various rings, trusts, and combines
in the Dominion naturally set about
devising a means for evading its dras
tic provisions. This would not be very
difficult were It not for the conclud
ing clause of the Act. This provides
that In any action for the recovery of
a penalty under the Act the Supreme
Court may "admit and accept as suf
ficient such evidence as it thinks nt,"
whether such evidence be strictly legal
evidence or not. '
It is futher provided that no person
shall be excused from answering in
terrogatories or from producing or dis
covering decuraenta on the ground that
It would tend to Incriminate him in
respect of any offence against the Act.
Much Indignation has been vented
against this bold invasion of tne
ground principles of tbe English Law
of Evidence.
In thus removing the protection
which the courts always allow to a de
fendant the Legislature has deliberate
ly armed the officers of tbe Crown
with Inquisitorial powers which are ir
resistible. In the particular case re
ferred to the defendants "were compel
led to supply all materials for their
undoing, The Crown officers were
given a roving commission to inspect
without restriction minute books, let

RURAL HOUSING PROBLEM SO
LUTION" IS SOUGHT.
Proposition Is to Sell Acreage at Its
Agricultural Value and in Some
. Cases to Give It Free.
LONDON, April 12. (Special.) An
Important step toward the solution of
the rural housing problem in England
has been taken by a number of great
landowners who are prepared to sell
land at its agricultural value a ad in
certain cases to give it free to public
bodies for the erection of cottages.
These landowners are: Earl Fitx
William. Earl of Leicester, the
Duke of Marlborough, E. G. Pretyman,
the Marquis of Salisbury, the Earl of
Selborne. the Earl of Shaftesbury,
Christopher Turner and Lady Wantage,
They say in a published letter:
"We believe that most landowners
nave considered it a moral duty to
house well and comfortably those who
work on their land, and' that they bave
done so often at a great sacrifice. But
some bave fallen short of their duty;
others bave been too poor to build
cottages. -
"Many old cottages (mostly belong
ing to very poor men, owners only of
a plot of ground, who could not af
ford to keep them in repair), have
been condemned for use and closed,
and a considerable population, not
necessarily working on farms, but en
gaged In public service for tbe gen
eral welfare of the community, such
as policemen, postmen and railway
men, baa grown up in tbe rural dis
tricts in recent years. Hence the
shortage of cottages.
"We are prepared to sell land which
has only an agricultural value, to lo
cal authorities and public utility so
cieties, working either on co-operative
or co-partnership lines, and is certain
cases to give l&od to Uiose bodies on
mm
condition that it should be retained
and used by them to build cottages for
agricultural laborers and other mem
bers of the rural community, and tnat
a garden of not less than 20 rods be
attached to each cottage.
We hone that the capital required
will be advanced by the government at
the lowest rate of interest which the
state of DUblic credit will allow. In
asmuch as the present cost of build
ing cottages 18 often unnecessarily
high, we suggest to the local-'govern-men-t
board that it should, in con
junction with Jhe board of agriculture.
set up standard designs of cottages
suited to' the requirements 01 tne o,w
ferent districts of rural England.
'If the acquisition of land can be
thus assured, if the money can be
borrowed at the lowest possible rate
of interest, and If a cheap form of
cottage can be, as It were, standard
ized, then the efforts of the landown
ers and of individual enterprise would
receive the supplement necessary to
solve the housing problem in the ru
ral distriots."
