Harry R. Nobles conducted the morning service and Mrs. O. U. Chapman, of Utica, N.Y., was the guest speaker in the evening.

CANADIAN MISSIONS Mrs. Chapman is the wife of the Rev. O. TJ. Chapman, who was pastor of the Temple Church when it was dedicated.

They recently returned from a world tour during which they visited 22 countries, and Mrs. Chapman based her address on the trip. She related how she visited 11 Canadian Baptist missions in China ant told of the fine work the missionaries are doing in that district as well aa in Burma and Japan. SIMPLE EXISTENCE Telling of the great number In China and India that have absolutely no educational advantages, Mrs. Chapman described how their simple round of existence consists of obtaining food and finding a place to sleep.

In India the vast majority of the native population live in mud huts, sleep on mud floors and cook simple food in a hole in the mud. One of the things that impressed Mrs. Chapman most was the thoroughness in which the missionaries da their work. She stated that she met; many of the missionaries she had known in Canada and the United States and that without exception all were happy in their chosen work. REV.

Pact Will Be Within League FRANCO RUSSIAN Nations of the world are today appropriating enough money annually to pay the ex penses of the League of Nations for 800 years, Guillaume Fatio, of Geneva, Switzerland, a member of the League or gamzation since its inception, declared in an address Satur day afternoon at a meeting of the Canadian and American affiliates of the American Foreign Policy Association, in the Prince Edward Hotel. 5 BILLIONS FOR ARMS "The annual budget of the nations for armaments Is 5,000 million dollars and with that sum they could run the League of Nations for more than 800 years," Mr. Fatio.

a former New York banker and a student of International affairs, told some 50 luncheon visitors from Detroit and the Border Cities. Mr. Fatio sketched the entire history of the League, illustrating his remarks with slides. He declared that it has been the means of settling international disputes and of improving world health and regulating such evils as the drug traffic. If its aims were adhered to it could also eliminate war, he said.

The speaker was introduced by Paul Martin, first vice-president of the organization, which has no president. At the head table with the speaker and Mr. Martin were Rabbi Leo M. Fram, of Temple Beth-El. Detroit; Mrs.

Harold T. Miller, of Detroit, second vice-president; Judge J. J. Coughlin, and others. ARMAMENT-MAKERS "From the inquiries of the American Senate," Mr.

Fatio said, "we all know of the big profits made by the armament makers, how they sell to any country, enemy and friend, and how their object is to sell armaments. And in order to sell armaments they have to keep the mind of the people in a nervous state, and when the minds of the people are turned toward fear they are turned toward armaments." The expense of the League of Nations total six million dollars a year, including the expense of its staff and operation of the World Court at The Hague. The League, incidentally, has been able to save enough on its budget to construct a beautiful new administration building. "The cost of building one battleship is six times more than the budget of the League of Nations," he said. "If we were to use the peaceful way of preventing war as advocated by the League of Nations, we could save enough to pay the cost of running the League for 800 years.

The nations would save money they are spending yet do not have, for many of them are bankrupt and have to borrow to buy armaments." TELLS OF ORGANIZATION Much of Mr. Fatio's address was devoted to explaining incidents leading up to organisation of the Leaeue. the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, and to a description of Geneva, the beautiful Swiss community where the League headquarters is located. There, also, is the headquarters of the Red Cross. He dealt at length with details of organization.

The speaker estimated that member nations in the League control nine-tenths of the population of the world. It has performed a tremendous amount oi work, completing 3,500 treaties at tne rate oi 233 a year. The World Court has nroven a valuable body, he added, as 60 cases nave been brought to it bv nations since its organization. Light Standard Rammed by Taxi J. MulhoUand, 30.

There was no one in the cab at the time. Though the automobile was slightly damaged, the driver was not Injured. Italian Envoy Saved From Knife Wielder BOSTON, AprU 29.

What police interpreted as an attempt to assassinate A gusto Rosso, Italian ambassador, was frustrated in the Hall of Flags at the state House today with the arrest of a surpect, who carried a dirk in his hand. The arrest was made just as the ambassador was entering the hall after visiting Governor James M. Curley. Detectives noticed the weapon in the man's hand and sprang ahead of the ambassador's party to snatch It from him. The knife was unopened at the time, but was of the type which would spring open with the pressure of a button.

The suspect gave his name as Eugenio Camini, 42, of Boston. He was taken to the detective bureau at police headquarters. The ambassador is here for a two-day visit. World Group to Decide Extent of Aid MOSCOW. April 29.

The Soviet Government took steps today to allay any fears that- the Franco-Russian mutual assistance pact would be set up outside the League of Nations and thereby strike a blow to the prestige of the Geneva organization. Assurance was given in an official communique that whatever armed aid either party to ths treaty might render would depend on the decision of the League Council. Many League supporters had viewed the possibility of an Independent agreement with uneasiness, especially because it is likely to be followed by a whole network of mutual assistance pacts modeled along similar lines. In light of the government's statement, observers here are expressing the opinion the accord may actually add to the strength and prestige of the League. The communique said France and Russia have been in agreement on the League Council provision from the beginning of their negotiations.

This statement denied press reports that differences arose over the Russian demand that military assistance in case of aggression against either party be automatic. The Soviet explanation said the difficulties which recently caused suspension of the negotiations arose over the question of finding a "proper form of framing the agreement." The communique did not go into detail on this subject but expressed the belief that there is no insurmountable obstacle in the way of reaching a complete accord. Maxim Litinoff, commissar for foreign affairs, who was recalled to Moscow from Geneva when negotiations were suspended, telegraphed new instructions to Ambassador Vladimir Potemkin In Paris Thursday. On the basis of this new outline of procedure, it was hoped a quick agreement would be reached enabling Pierre Laval. French foreign minister, to come to Moscow early in May for formal signature of the accord.

Yeggs Active in Toronto TORONTO. April 29.

Many people prefer the quite mystical elements of religion but the simple fact is -that the church is engaged in conflict. STRENGTH OF CHURCH "Rivers of blood have flown as a result of the persecution enflicted upon the Christian church. Thess opposing forces have only served to strengthen the church's work. Not one but many times it has risen from what appeared to be the ashes of its defeat. "We have the promise of the Founder of the Church that the gates of death shall not prevail over it.

History has born this out," concluded Mr. Nobles. Special music, arranged by R. L. Bateman, director, was rendered by the choir at both services.

Harry Byways, the fireman and Barney Barnes, head-end brakeman. had a miraculous escape from death aa the engine and ears piled up In a heap. Smith rode his engine into the crash, trimly clutching the controls.

Byways leaped clear or the locomotive Just before the crash and Barnes crawled to the top of the tender and dung to the coal heap as the Impact came. That any of the three came out alive is a source of amazement. lnaa In the wreck is estimated by officials today at $150,000. The part of the C. N.

R. line where the accident took place, is at the north limit of Lyndhurst, a suburb of St. Thomas and half a mile west of where the Wellington road enters St. Thomas. The track at this point takes a double curve and about 1.200 feet west of where the rear end of the second section was standing waiting for the first section to clear the St.

Thomas yards. Is a distinct curve. The tracks are noUceably on the downgrade at this point. KAILS SLirrCKY The two sections had clear running orders Into St. Thomas, about five minutes apart.

The three sections always carry high class freight and the Wabash prides itself on the fine time made by these sections from border to border. At the time there was a persistent drizzle of rain that made the rails very slippery. The official report of the accident made by Chief Dispatcher J. w. Far-ran shows that the second section was stand In part la the yards and part out of the yards, waiting for the first section to chance waycars.

The third nectlon In charge of Conductor William Coleman approached from the west.

The wreck was a spectacular one and most of the night crowds stood watching the salvage work, and yesterday the roads were lined with the cart of curious onlookers.

Local railway authorities said Smith had slowed down to between 10 and IS miles an hour at the time of the crash. The box cars seemed to heave up into the air and settle down on -lther side of the tracks. CABOOSE ENGULFED The first car from the caboose of the second section was hoisted right up on top of the engine and the next car was rolled Into the south ditch. The caboose simply disappeared underneath the engine. It was rather miraculous that there was no serious tire.

A Uttle fire that was discovered after the steam had exhausted itself, was put out by the crew. The tender of the locomotive was la the south ditch along with one steel freight car. and two other cars of the third section were locked on the track and Just off the track on the north aids of the tracks. Three sections of the track were torn up and the entire wreckage dtd not seem to cover more than about 200 feet of the right-of-way. Four of the freight cars were quite intact after the crash, the car of furniture consigned from Chicago to New York and which contained everything from baby buggies to cosy chairs, was split open and a larga percentage of the crated contents salvaged by workmen.
