Chesterfields do exactly the same thing for your smoking. They let you know you're smoking. They SATISEY!

The blend does it. And the blend can't be copied.

THE RUBBER SLUMP.

London, Jan. 10. Dealing with the proposed fifty per cent. restriction of rubber catpat in Malaya and the Straits, the "Times" emphasises that further restriction would be exceedingly expensive for the producing com- panies in view of the necessity for maintenance. The labour force, one of the primary expenses of a rubber catate, could hardly be reduced appreciably if the fifty per cent, restriction were enforced. It seems The following is the result of a probable therefore that the fifty per cent. restriction might be accom- match shot off between the HLM.S. panied by a rise of about fifty per cent, in "all in" costs, say from Hawkine and H.M.S. Ambrose at Is. Ed. to 13. 9d. in the pound. The result would be that unless rubber Stonecutters Range on the 8th rose to 13. 5d., the loss per pound under the restriction would be instant, resulting in a win for greater than without the restriction and with rubber at tenpence.

THE UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM.

London, Jan. 10,

The gravity of the unemployment problem was manifested at the 29 34 37 100 end of last year, when 784,000 workless were officially recorded. The '97 ambers are rapidly increasing. It is estimated that the London |Boards of Guardiana are paying out in relief at the rate of £1,000,000 898 annually. Labour organisationa which refused to participate in the Government's Committee of Enquiry are conferring with a view to drawing up a scheme to deal with the problem.

On the 29th December Tsun- lanori Oyama, nephew of General Oyama, who has been charged with having tried to sell military maps to the British and the American Embassies in Tokyo, was sentenced to three years penal servitude. He appealed to the higher court. ETRICS OF JAPANESE WORKERS.
