Millard Stricken With Appendicitis: Hearing Remanded a Third Time Taken to Hospital in Toronto and Operated Upon Crown Attorney Tells Court on Tuesday. Hearing of Alleged Violation of Canada Defence Regulations is Deferred Again. Bail Renewed for Another Week. "I received a wire this morning ftom Mr. Magone, who is prosecuting for the croewn, and also from Mr. Cohen, deâ€" fence counsel, to the effect that Milâ€" lard ‘was taken suddenly ill. He was taken to the hospital where he was operated upon for appendicitis, The Magistrate in Toronto will go to the hospital and remand the case and I will have to ask Your Worship to reâ€" mand the hearing here," said Mr. Caldâ€" bick. Millard‘s bondsmen were asked to reâ€" new bail of $5000 for another week. One bondsman is Mike Matymitz. The other, FPred Wasyluk, was replaced on Tuesday by Mrs. Nettie Awdeychuk, who said that she had property to cover the surety of $2,500 required of her. The court clerk remarked to the Magzistrate that Mrs. Awdeychuk presented herâ€" self as bondman for Millard at last court hearing when the bail bond was, in reality, signed by Wasyluk. Mrs Awdeychuk told the court that she was not replacing Wasyluk but that she was willing to go bail. Wasyluk is no longâ€" er a bondsman. The charge against Millard is as folâ€" lows: *"That Charles H. Millard, at a meeting held in the Goldfields Theatre in the Town of Timmins, did make statements to the effect that we should have democracy in Canada before we go to Europe to fight for democracy, that there was not a great deal of sense in going to Europe to fight Hitlerism while there was Hitlerism right here in Canada; that men only join the army to make sure of eating regularly, and words of like intenxt being intended to prejudice the recruiting of His Majesâ€" ty‘s forces." Magistrate Atkinson formally reâ€" mairded the hearing of the charge fot another week. At that time it will probably be again refnanded.

Often such men come to the police staâ€" tion and ask to be charged with vagâ€" rancy and locked up. A conviction on such a charge and a resulting jail sentâ€" ence means that they will at least be taken care of during the time they are in jail. Deeming jail with its comparative comfort and good food better than roaming the streets in subâ€"zero weaâ€" ther, eight men pleaded guilty in police ccurt on Tuesday. The one who did not, Fred St. Clair, was convicted when Constable Hanson said that he saw him bezging and warned him to stop it. When he again saw the man asking for money he brought him in.
