TIMELY NOTES ON FUR TOPICS
At Oslo, Norway. last week mink sold at firm prices. The offering of 31,000 skins. was 100 percent sold, with American buy- ets being most active and taking the bulk of the offering.
Norwegian blue fox also sold 100 percent at prices unchanged from March. The mink offering consisted mainly of late-pelted skins.
This sale concludes Norwegian selling until December, and completely cleaned out the crop. Prices of interest included: dark males averaged $23 with a top of $33.75; females averaged $14.- 3, with a top of $20.25; pastel males averaged $26, with a top of $35; females averaged $15 with a top of $17; silver ‘blue -males averaged $17 with a top of $22.50, and females averaged $10.50 with @ top of $12; sapphire males av- raged $19.50 with a top of $29.50, and females averaged $11 with a top of $13; Norwegian blue foxes averaged $29 with a top of $35.75.
10 PER CENT UP
Ed Gold, reporting to ‘Wo- men’s Wear Daily,”’ stated that dr autumn haze regulars
out with a bang at the lat- est New York auction sale. A total of 47,141 skins was 100 per- cent sold at prices a strong 10 percent above April levels.
The official report noted excel- lent attendance, with all seg- ments of the market well repre- sented. The collection was con- sidered ‘“‘good,’’ with skins from leading ranchers represented. Top males sold for $60 and femai- es for $30. .
The sale was aided to‘ho small degree by important buying by a leading manufacturer and top dealers. The pastel boom has fri- ghtened some people, buoyed up others. There are those who would have been a little happier had the jump from February to Ap- Til been less conspicuous.
Isadore Manesowitz, manager of Hudson Bay Company Fur Sales, Inc., New York, is leav- ing that firm on June 30. He has been associated with H.B.C. and its predecessor, Lampson, Fras- er and Huth, for thirty years. He says that he is leaving be- cause of health reasons.
The above gentleman was well
known to ranchers throughout the United States and Canada, and was very highly regarded. ‘The Soudack Fur Auction Sal- es, Lid., Winnipeg, will offer for sale on June 1st the following: 10,000 beaver, 125,000 otter, 100, 000 muskrat, 1,500 wild mink, and 4,000 ranch mink.
This firm, despite the strong
competition which it has to meet, \has maintained the confidence of shippers for more than a quarter of a century.
And here is a list of some of the money that goes to the Unit- ed States government from ex- cise taxes on furs: In the nine- imonth period which ended March 31, collections amounted to $22,803,000. For the first quar- ter of this year, the taxes have reached a new high of $13,847,- 000.
PRICES ADVANCE
The Hudson Bay Company, re- porting on their sale in New York, quote price advances of from 5 to 7% percent in the vari- Lous categories, plus new seasonal highs. The goods offered were EMBA skins, and the official comment was that the selling tempo set a terrific pace.
There was strong competition for the greys and blues. Turn- over for all colors was almost complete. The outstanding high for the day was $120 per skin paid for a bundle in the azurene homo-sapphire category. Females in this color phase went as high as $52 per skin.
Cerulean stewarts were 97 per- cent sold, with top males at $47 and females at $18.25. Breath of spring was 98 percent sold, with top males at $56 and females at $24. Azurene color phases were 99 percent sold, with the high male bundle for winter blues was $66 and females at $31.
The corresponding excellent prices were paid in other cate- gories at the above sale. The collction was an outstanding one.
VERY FIRM
A despatch from Copenhagen, Denmark, states that at the Danish Fur Auctions held there last week, pastel mink command- ed very firm prices. The offer- ing of 17,000 pastels was prac- tically 100 percent sold.
The opinion was that the entire offering of some 36,000 muta- tions brought levels quite equal to those for March. The United States took the bulk'of the brown group, while Europe, led by It- aly, gave American a strong com- petition for the white and blue groups.
When one reads about the suc-
' cess of the European auctions, it
must be realized that their strength is largely due to compe- tition from American buyers, and the fur market is. so v; that a setback in prices in !
York would circulate by cable to ali the fur centers of the world and cause a similar reaction.

PARLIAMENT “SICK”
Actions by both Liberals and Conservatives indicate that Par- liament is ‘“‘sick,”’ Dr. Aitchisou said. He said fething has beeu done to prevent a recurrence of the situation in 1956 when Speaker Rene Beaudoin was charged with being partial during the heated trans-Canada pipeline debate.
“Im Canada a Speaker knows that however conscientious, com- petent, and impartial he may be. he will probably be superseded after the next general election.” This made it hard to get a com- petent man in the job. The prime minister was usually choosing his cabinet at the same time and the speakership was an alternative to cabinet office.
PICK BACKBENCHER
“The choice usually falls on a , backbencher who can more read- |ily cut his party ties than cau one who has, or has had. strong claims to mimisterial office.”
Mr. Diefenbaker appeared Teady to name a penmanen speaker in 1957 when he offered the post to Stanley Knowles) Dr. Aitchison said. ;
“The failure after this of the prime minister to make a begin- ning during the election of 1958 suggests that he had come to
port in Quebec.”
The prime minister should have suggested that Speaker Roland Michener continue as long as he proved ‘ worthy of office, «Dr. Aitchison said, and that he not be opposed in his constituency. It would have been difficult for other parties to refuse.
CITES CASE
On Dec. 13, 1957, the Conserva- tive governmemt appealed a rul- ing that was im keeping with one the Speaker had made a few days earlier, Dr. Aitchison said.
“This showed how little ic really cared for the institution of Parliament. The defence it of- fered for its conduct was wholly spurtous and, in view of the fuss the party had made about its concern for the proper function- ing of Parliament, it was shame- less.”
The government had arguea that since it was a minority gov- ernment, it was in the hands of the House. But this was similar to a criminal saying he was ab- solved of a crime he was about to commit because others could stop him.
“The Liberals, in fleeing behind the curtains in sufficient num- bers to enable the ruling to be re- versed, are in no better case.” They succeeded merely in dem- onstrating how demoralizéd and neurotically fearful they had be- come.

Scallop Conservation
MONTREAL — Scallops—suc- culently deliciotis shellfish pop- ular with Canadian and Ameri- ean fish connoisseurs—held the spotlight in one group of scient- ists and fisheries advisers at- tending the ninth Annual Meet- ing of _the International. Com- mission for the Northwest Atlan- tic Fisheries which convened in Montreal last week.
The _ scientific teams repre- sented fisheries research bodies of both Canada and the United States, and the question involv- ed whether the increasingly heavy scalloping operations on the Georges Bank fishing grounds justified some future action to | apply conservation regulations. |Georges Bank, the most prolific jseallop grounds in the world, is sprawled in Atlantic waters off the coast of Nova Scotia and New England. The scientists de- cided to carry on further actual |fishing experiments before re- |commending changes in fishing gear that would control the sizes of scallops caught.
BUSY AGENDA
Today's scallop discussion was just one of the many subjects on the busy agenda of the 12-na- tion fisheries commission. Other

Monday by Honourable J. Angus MacLean, Minister of Fisheries for Canada. Member nations of the international convention are Ca- nada, Denmark, France, Ger- many, Iceland, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Spain, the United Kingdom, the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics and the Unit- ed States.

The Christian layman is in the front line of the world-wide baitle for the right. When we epeak of the laity we include women as well as men, and in many places put them first.
At present their leadership makes all the difference between victory and defeat.
The layman has access to per- sons and place which clergy- men could never reach.
The layman's success im busi- ness and position im society give weight to his words when he speaks for Christ. ILm one place that I knew, a layman's testi- mony kindled a fire that swept over a wide area and rekindled the assurance of spiritual success | where failure has seemed imevi- table.

in our situation. D.L. Moody once said that the only degree that he wanted after his name was 0.0.—out and? out for Christ. Wholehearted allegi- ance is expected of all.

Some people multiply ‘‘don’t” ia their church life until they leave the impression that their religion consists mainly in what they renounce. .) -
Now it is important not to be conformed to the world, but far more important to be positive in our testimony and our active ministry. It is what we are “for” rather than what we are “against” that interests the world.
The most practical force in the world is the Spirit-filled life. Against the early Christians this complaint was made: “Those who have turned the world upside- down have come here also.” To quote again from D.L. Moody: “Once I was afraid ist I offend somebody; now I am afaid that I won't.”
Christ’s spirit challenges the world at every point—its prin- ciples, its ideals, the means it uses and the ends it serves.
So often the young betiever finds his faith challenged in lit- tle things. Yet little things may involve universal principles. kK is pissible to take Christ with us all the way—or rather, to go “ali the way” with Him. To be His through and through is our privil- ege in youth and age alike.
