Estimate of Total i World Stocks of Rubber London, July 7.?The rubber indusrty in British colonies ami proteclo- i rates has hard times ahead of it. | That is the opinion expressed by the i committee appointed by the Colonial i Secretary to investigate the situa- , tion. \ The committee has just made its report. It says the total war' ! stocks of I-tiide rubber at the beginning of he year were estimated at MO,000 t Thi> was much more than the v.. id required. Therefore it advises \\ cistor. Churchill, the Colonial Secr? :.11 y, to "contemplate with grave i,i in ;he position of the industry l!riti?h colonies and protectorates i . , step< are taken to reduce st.., k. and further to prevent over i?'ii t?i i umui iuii^ a> vm* ' ititl normal production continho substantially in excess of n umption."

Further it should be realized that improved methods ot nianuiarturmir runner products , such as tires. undoubtedlv prolong the lilt* of the article and eon eijuently curtail the demand for raw rubber." In the matter of the compulsory ret > it t ion of the production of raw rubber, the committee says the Dutch government, whose lands also produce much rubber, will have to he con suited.

( Chocolate Candy IV Increasingly Popular Berlin, July 7.?Chocolate candy, the war-time "iron ration" of armies, ol has become increasingly popular since tf the war anions the laboring people of a| Germany despite the hand-to-mouth .ti existence in which they are forced ol to live because of low wages and high ct prices. The workers here are said et to have now usurped the pre-war po- tr sition occupied by the middle classes ti as the greatest consumers of this pi "luxury." ei Simultaneously with comment in tl the press on this anomaly in the fi workingman's budget, figures are an- it nounced which show that the German tl laborer today is receiving wages la barely sufficient to keep him and his <> family in the necessities of life. ti Clara Bohm-Schuch, Socialist mem- 0 ber of the Reichstag, reporting in Vorwaerts the result of an inquiry into workers' living conditions, de- f clares higher wages are necessary 0 and that the present state of af- s Kill's IS Hue III lilt." |llni me UI U.1CIKIO 11 in agriculture, industry and trade. ji Interviewing an industrialist, she j writes, she was told that diligent t workers in his establishment received f "good" wages at about 1,500 marks a week, equal to about $4.00 in Am- t erican money. She sought out a mechunic and found that was the exact j| amount of his stipend, and that he t. supported a wife and child on it. L. She cites also the case of a bar- j ber's family of five, including thr-ee t] hildren between 10 and 15 years of age. which lived on the man's salary o:' 1,000 marks a week. In i thiid family of four, the budget was based on the earnings of J.S00 marks a month. I England Will Not < Abandon the Sudan < 1 Alexandria, Egypt, July 7.?Gen- ? eral Ixird Allenby, British High Com- < nissioner for Egypt, during a recent visit to Khartoum, delivered an ad- ' dress in which he indicated British I purposes in the Sudan. He said in part: "I notice some fears among the Sudanese peoples regarding a less 1 iiniimnte future association between 1 (Ireat Britain and the Sudan for the development of the country. Such intentions are not those of the BritMi government, and as a confirmation of these words I cannot do bettor than mention to you the speech of the British Premier in the House of Commons February 28, 1922, when the question of the independence of the Sudan was discussed. Here are his words: " 'I must speak first of the Sudan wh:eh is very important for the British empire. Sudan deserves our good attention. The combined efforts of England and Egypt have been necessary to preserve the country from devastation and ruin. " 'For the last 20 years England and Egypt have worked both with men and money to re-establish peace and prosperity in a country which must and will be some day in the near future as fertile and as populous as it could ever possibly be. The British government will never allow the progress already realized and the ( great promises of the future to be ( put in danger, nor wil it ever consent to any change in the by-laws of the country which would diminish the safety of the millions of British capital devoted to the development of the Sudan. I " 'On the other hand, ^rypt has gcd th" undeniable right of demanding ( full guarantees so that that the de-1 Velop of the Sudan may not threaten the actual water distribution in com ng years. The governmen is ready to give these guarantees, and there are no reasons why these should pre- j ent or delay the progress of the Sudan.' "1 think these words are sufficient' > to reassure you and I hope that, oncei back to your homes, you will tell J your people that England is not , abandoning this country." Cherrists in This Country Second to None Boston, .July 0.?The time has come ! when tea< hers may justly dwell upon the word "American* 'in chemistry instruction, C. II. Stone, president of < lhe English High School, Boston, said \ today in an address before the De- i pnrtmcnt of Science Instruction, Na- t tional Education Association, here. 1 "During the past 10 years this country has shown that it has chemists second to none; it has shown that t there is an American chemistry," Mr. Stone said. 'Mention of only a few lines of endeavor, such as optical < glass, dyestuflfs, war gases, explosives, and nitrogen fixation will show that today we stand upon a chemical level with aqy of the nations. The names of our American chemists should be as freely used in our class work as those if European chemists. 4 l,et us give to America and to Am- r erican chemists lit cr? lit which is their just due. * "When we look into the future and ' realize the great part which ehem- ? istry is destined to play in this country, a strong feeling of re p usibility comes over us. To lay the l?-;?ad and! deep foundations of chemical knowledge on which others may raise the superstructure, to cultivate in youth mose powers oj observation and of reasoning which lend to the host results, towaken in them a realization of what chemistry means to the i-ountry now and in the future for the, safety, comfort, health and material wealth of our nation, this is the task ; >f the high school chemistry teacher." j ? lania of Speculation j In Upper Silesia Kreuzberg, July 7.?A wild mania f speculation, recalling the days of le California gold fever, already has ppeared in connection with the partion of Upper Silesia. The danger f losing certain established trade mneetions through a stampede, how/er, is preventing some German aders from entering new combinaons, the purpose of which is the romotion of common interests on ither side of the boundary. But lere is a tendency among German rms whose connections do not make necessary for them to remain in le territory now acquired by Poind to remove to the German side f the border. These migrators c. n nue to retain their premises on Hither side of the line pending deelopments. The first days of the opening of the rentier have witnessed the invasio f various cities by dealers from one ide or the other in a mad rush to >uy up such artoiles as are useful 11 their particular lines of business t seems likely that the Upper Silesia rude center, which hitherto has been Ireslau, will be shifted to Cracaw A considerable movement is no ' iceable also in the ranks of labor, lany German workingmen are cross iir the line, preferring to take the'r hances in the Fatherland rather than ontinue their former employment on 'olish soil under Polish labor conlitions.
