Uneasiness In League Circles

(Associated Press)

GENEVA, April ‘flu-Uncertainty about whether Japan will accept the League assembly committee's resolution calling on the Japanese to evacuate the Shanghai area "in the nearfuture" caused some un- easiness today in League of Nations circles regarding 'the outcome of the Shanghai armistice negotiations.

Foreign Minister Paul Hymans of Belgium and Sir Eric Drummond. Secretary-General of the league, received Haruichl Nagaoka, Japan-

- ese representative, and sought to

induce him to accept the resolu- tion. Mr. Nagaoka replied that he was unauthorized to do so but he would query Tokyo.

Subsequently Dr. W. W. Yen, Chinese spokesman, called on M. Hymans and Sir Eric and accepted the committee resolution.

The uneasiness in league circles was increased by reports, spread by persons close to the Russian dele- gatlon, that the Soviet government now has strong forces in East Si- beria and considers trouble with the Japanese likely in the near future.

Minister of M a r i n e M a k e s Statement In Commons With Reference T o . S t. Lawrence Water- ways.

OTFAWA, April 20—(By the Canadian Prom-The Dominion Government may be trusted to safeguard Canadian rights in con- nection with the St. Lawrence wat- erways development, said Hon. Ai- fred Duranleau, Minister of Marine, in the House of Commons today. A tendency existed in some quar- ters, he said, to turn the scheme into a political football and “strange voices and strange arguments are heard, particularly in Quebec."

“The Government," declared Mr. Duranleau, “never will relax its vililance over the safeguarding of Canadian rights and interests, no matter whether those interests may be found in Quebec, Ontario, Mont- real or the head of the Lakes."

Reference to the St. Lawrence waterways scheme was made by the Marine Minister when continuing debate on the Rhodes budget.

New Records

In Operating Efficiency

NEW HAVEN, Conn. April 20.- In spite of curtailing revenues, the New Haven railroad established new records in operating eﬂiciency dur- ing 1931, President J. J. Pelley told stockholders today at the annual meeting. .

Citing the decision of the Inter-

state Commcrce Commission recom- mending Federal regulation of highway motor traffic, President Peliay urged support by stockholders of legislation to effect such regula- tion. Railroad dlmculties, he said, ‘have been severely accentuated by unregulated forms of transporta- tion." Gross revenue in i031 approxim- ated $100,000,000, he said, as com- pared with a gross revenue in i928 of $138,000,000. However, in spite of a reduction in freight revenue of 13.8 per cent. from the previous year, train mileage decreased only 4.6 per cent. -asacnger revenue dropped l8.6 per cent. with a train mile reduction of 7.5 per cent.

OTTAWA, April 20.—Canada last year shipped about 26,000 head of cattle to the British market which is a. revival of a. trade that many years ago ran into even greater pro- portions and then dropped oil m- tirely. The excellent healtn of Can- adian cattle voiced before the meat traders in England substantiates

along. The feeling here is that the trade in the United Kingdom has gradually been coming to real- ize that the restrictions placed on Canadian cattle are ‘unfair. One restriction is that cattle for ship- mcnt to Britain must be quaran- tined for three days before going on the ship. This may seem trivial but it adds to the cost as do vari- ous markings which must be put on the cattle.

Cattle are shipped from Canada as fat or store cattle. 'l."he fat cat-
