AIRDRIE, Alberta Auctioneers Frank Gwartney, Lic. No. 1, and Alec Sim, Lic. No. 32 12-2 Spring Auction Sales Diamond Loss Is $3,000,000 Capetown, South Africa Beers, the South African diamond trust, has started another campaign against diamond smuggling.

DeBeers controls the diamond supply. As a result of the campaign, Capetown is expecting a visit from agents of Sir Percy Sillitoe, former head of British military intelligence, who. is directing the DeBeers drive. An estimated total of 000 worth of diamonds is stolen annually. The thefts, since diamond stealing and smuggling started at Kimberley in the northern Cape Province, may exceed one of the world's great fortunes, that of Cecil Rhodes, who founded DeBeers.

Capetown has the reputation of being one of the world's diamondsmuggling centres because it is the nearest port and city to Kimberley, to the western Cape Province diamond area and to the West Africa diamond area. Diamonds have been smuggled out of here for a long time. Once a diamond has got as far as a smuggling outfit in Capetown there is not much that can be done unless the International Diamond Manufacturers' Associations and the police can get a clue to the smuggling ring. The crews of merchant vessels come and go freely. There is an ordinary bus service that runs to the docks and customs officials glance only casually at those boarding ships.

Stolen diamonds can get into legal channels easily in a country where individuals operate diamond claims. There is not much proving that a diamond did not come from one of these claims. However, experts can tell where a diamond came from, within limits. Heavily patrolled are the allu- READY FOR SPRING WORK?

Gabriel Breynat, 86, a legendary figure in the Canadian Arctic. where he served as a Roman Catholic missionary for 51 years, died near Lyons, France. Word of his death was received here by the provincial of the Oblate Fathers, the order to which Bishop Breynat belonged. Bishop Breynat, known throughout Canada's north as the "Flying Bishop" and "Bishop of the returned to his native France in 1943 and retired.

Conference (Continued from Page 1, Sec. 4) Women's Institute of the Province of Alberta request the provincial government to set up regional libraries in every part of the province.

3. Whereas there is no provindial museum for the preservation and display of articles of historical interest and value, and whereas many of these irreplacable articles have been lost or destroyed, and. whereas 1955 is the Golden Jubilee year of our province, therefore it is resolved that a fireproof building for a museum to house all articles of historical interest be provided, and an archivist be appointed by the Province of Alberta by September 1st, 1955 in celebration of Alberta's Golden Jubilee. This resolution was endorsed by district 5, and adopted by district 3 conference. Saturday afternoon an address was enjoyed on "New Developments in C.A.C.," by Mrs.

C. R. Wood, M.P.P. for Stony Plain. The Canadian Association of Consumers was formed following World War II, and now has both federal and provincial governments listening to the women.

Truthful labels on products was their first project. Industry is interested in the consumer and will meet them half way when approached through the C.A.C. Mrs. Wood also gave the highlights of her activities as a delegate to the A.C.W.W. I convention in Toronto last August.

Mrs. S. Swainson gave her report as district director and thanked all for the loyal support given her. Mrs. T.

H. Howes gave the publicity report. Entertainment throughout the conference was given by the W.I. Choir, Mrs. Mayne, Mrs.

Vale, and community singing. Mrs. Alice Brewer, of Medicine Hat, president of the Alberta Association for the Handicapped, requested the help of the WoInstitute in obtaining the names and addresses of all handicapped persons in Alberta.

HENDERSON, Pres. W. M. CAMPBELL, Sec'y 10-1 12-1 vial diamond beds in the western Cape Province and in West Africa. It is one thing to control a mine and another to control an area where diamonds are dug up all over the place.

Last year, a diamond smuggler was caught because his light plane failed to take off after he had landed in the forbidden diamond area. Native workers are searched, stripped, and their work clothes are kept until the next shift. But in an alluvial area a diamond can simply be slipped out of sight until an opportunity occurs. Somewhere here in Captown are men who will buy a diamond and ask no questions. All that is known is that since the war: mysterious outfit has been handling the exceptional skill internationally.

A new effort is being made to find out what it is and where it is. Smuggling agents have been caught in various parts of the world, but they have not known, or at least they have not disclosed, how the system works or for whom they are working. Liner Raised In Record Time The New York Times) London The fire-wrecked hull of the liner Empress of Canada was raised upright from her side in fifty-six minutes in a Liverpool dock. This feat, the climax of more than a year's preparation, was considered the greatest salvage operation in Britain's Experts said that the only comparable operations were the righting of the liner Normandie in New York and the raising of the battleship Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor. The Empress of Canada burned and sank in January last year.

After pumping operations to refloat her, she will go into dry dock to make her seaworthy for her last voyage to a shipbreaker's yard to be sold as I scrap. The scrap will bring about £40,000 The cost of the salvage operation is estimated at nearly £380,000 The loss must be borne by the Mersey Docks and Harbor Board, which, under a 100-year-old statute, accepts responsibility for removing all wrecks from the River Mersey. That statute will soon be changed. Unlike Normandie Operation The salvaging method used in raising the Empress of Canada differed from that involving the former French liner Normandie, which was sealed up, pumped out and restored to an upright position by her own buoyancy. The Empress, on the other hand, was hauled back to her The British salvagers attached pontoons to the side of the Empress of Canada and then erected steel anchors on the same side at the ship's upper deck level.

After preliminary pumping out, the hawser lift was started from an adjoining dock and the ship shifted to an upright position. Sabotage was hinted at first in the inquiry into the fire since the ship was the third to be stricken by fire in an eight-day -all at Liverpool docks. The British Transport Ministry decided, however, that the fire had started in the vessel's dispensary and had not been discovered soon enough. The Empress of Canada was originally the 1928-built Duchess of Richmond. She was renamed in honor of the original Empress which was torpedoed and sunk in 1943 following an attack by an Italian submarine, with the loss of 400 persons.

She was the first vessel to resume regular passenger service between Canada and Liverpool after the war. Following the fire and loss of the ship, the Canadian Pacific Line purchased the 29-year-old French liner De Grasse to handle the Coronation season bookings of the fire-ravaged Empress and to take her place on the company's trans-Atlantic schedule. The insurance on the Empress of Canada, it was said, brought more than $6,500,000. Ancient "Wonder" Doubted Addressing the London Society of Antiquarians, Herbert Maryon cast doubt on the legendary size of the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. The statue could not have stood astride the harbor of Rhodes, he said.

The harbor there is 600 feet wide and the statue stood only 120 feet high, which would have given the whole thing absurd proportions. He believes the Colossus was not I made of solid metal but made of sheet metal, shaped and riveted.
