The injured are: James Mec- ' Carthy, 525 St. Vincent street, Port Arthur, shock; Dan Moro- chuk, 345 Ontario street, Port Ar- © thur, shock; Sherwin Gonyou, 103 South Court street, Port Arthur, . | shock, all in St. Joseph's Hospital; Donald McKay, shoulder dislocated, ! 120 Dease street, Fort William, in the Port Arthur General Hospital. ! It is thought that the body of ! the missing man is in the lake or underneath the wrecked machinery. It is thought, though the real facts will not be disclosed unul the inquest tomorrow night, which | Coroner Laurier has called, that the wooden tower, made of scaf- folding, as is usual at large con- struction works, fell and took with it the gement mixer and all the gear. The scow tilted, and Sala- huk and the other man were thrown into the water, It is pre- sumed that the other four, who were slightly injured only, junrp- ed to avoid being pinned under the debris, and received slight injuries _ as they fell, It all happened so quickly that none of the injured men could tell how it happened. At the time of the accident the men, with many others, were clean- ing the hoppers. The dead man, Salahuk, leaves a wife and child living in Poland. He had been in Canada two years, He lived with his sister and bro- ther-in-law, the latter being a mill- wright at the electric elevator, Fort William. The scow and all m--a NOTICE--~Water Mains the gear in comnection with it being dismantled tonight by the company in the hope that the body of the missing man may be found though he may be in the lake. MAN AT LEAMINGTON DROWNS IN HIS CAR Leamington, May 18.--In an at- tempt to park his car on the dock in order to go fishing, a Syrian youth, Tom Thonms, aged 22, ap- parently lost control of the automo- bile and it plunged into 22 feet of water and he was drowned to- day. - Although a number of people witnessed the accident, all attempts at rescue were futile. A wrecking car raised the ill fated car later, The accident followed closely on the departure from the dock of an excursion to Sandusky, Ohio, on the steamer Peel. Quite a number of townspegple drove down to the dock to see friends off on the ea cursion, and there was a line of cars parked when the boy arrived to spend the day fishing. A 7- year-old brother of Thomas was in the car with him, but got out before he drove on to the dock. Onlookers saw him manoeuvring the car in an effort to find a park- ing place, and finally he drove straight for a narrow opening be- tween two cars, Just what hap- pened then is not known, but spec. tators were horrified to see ine car fail to stop, and in another second it had plunged into the water, FAIR PLAY FOR THEM Unless a certain amount of as- sistance rendered the newcomer and those who become his employers or neighbors exhibit sympathy with him in his efforts to establish himself, his lot, far from old friends and old associations, is bound to be the re- verse of happy. There are, of course, a great many farmers and farmers' wives who practice this, neighborly interest in those who settle in their midst and the entire class ought not to be con- demmned for the shortcomings of a minority. Nevertheless, it is the mem- bers of this minority who breed dis- satisfaction amongst immigrants and who are directly doing a great injury to their own country as well as to those who are attracted to it, There must be fair play for the immigrant if he is to realize the high hopes which he has entertain- ed concerning settlement in this country and if he is to become a prosperous and contented citizen of this Dominion, TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the City sf Oshawa intends to construct, under the provisions of its By-Law No. 1862 and its By-Law No, 1611, as authorized by an Act respect- Ing the City of Oshawa, being Chapter 122, Ontario Statutes, 1922, (12-13 Geo, V.)

Even the anxiety of Pekin and Tientsin over the approaching tide of civil war, the businesslike pre- parations to protect their nationals by the foreign military commands ers, and the position of Japan in Shantung have been virtually for- gotten while official circles, for- eign and Chinese alike, discuss the implications of the memorandum, It is agreed that these are mo- mentous, probably more significant than any Far Eastern development since the Great War, Among the high Chinese there is a feeling ap- proaching consternation, and the fear is expressed that Japan is tak- ing advantage of war-torn China to establish permanently her domi- nation of Manchuria, Dictator Urged to Flee Tokio, May 18.--In handing the Japanese Government's memoran- dum to Marshal Chang Tso-lin, Northern dictator, at Pekin, the Japanese Minister, Kenkichi Yoshi- zawa, is reported, on reliable au- thority, to have advised Chang Tso- lin's return to Manchuria promptly while his armies were undefeated. Chang, however, flatly declined, The memorandum from Japan embodied a warning that the Jap- anese Government, while hoping for a speedy ending of the civil war, could not countenance any operations endangering Japanese life and property. A similar warning was handed to the Nanking Government by the Japanese Consul-General there, The National Conference of Ecopomic Organization, meeting here today, passed resolutions ask- asking: Firgt---That, in view of the Tsin- ian incident, the Government main- tain a most resolute attitude tow- ard the Chinese warring factions, and take every step to prevent a repetition of the incident, International Parley Planned Second--That, in view of the heavy losses sustained by both Chinese and foreigners as a result of the civil war, the Government take an early opportunity to ap- proach other powers proposing a joint conference to * advise Cluna in seeking a restoration of peace, Third--That, while the economic organizations are sympathetic with China's appeal for treaty revisions, the Government deal resolutely with Chinese breaches of existing treaties, Fourth--That the Government seek to expedite a: Chinese tariff conference, s Fifth--That the Government establish a Chinese policy indepen- dent. of politics, In many quarters peither Japan- ese nor Chinese the phrase "Man- churian protectorate' is being free- ly used in speaking of the position of Japan in relation to that terri- tory, Vague Terminology Although the memorandum as published in Pekin is vague, as is characteristic of Oriental diplo- macy, and does not indicate Tokio's interpretation of "appropriate and effective steps for the maintenance of peace and order in Manchuria," the explanation handed to the Am- hassadors of the powers is more explicit, Tokio has informed her Ambas- sadors that Japan "will prevent as far' as possible defeated troops or those in pursuit of them, regardless of whether they are Northern or Southern troops, from entering Manchuria," as such action "is necessary for the protection of the special position of Japan in Man- churia and Mongolia." The obvious meaning of this ex- planation is that the Chinese civil war shall not penetrate beyond the Great Wall, while Tokio strongly indicates that it will establish a military barrier at Shanhaikwan (at the terminus of the Great Wall, almost at the boundary of Chihii 'and Manchuria) to enforce this, Thus General Chang Tso-lin is faced with the alternative of at- tempting to retain his foothold in Pekin against his Chinese foes without the possibility of retreat, or to withdraw to Manchuria while his forces are capable of an orderly retirement, Between Two Fires If the Northern war lord chooses the former course his bridges will be burned behind him, for the Japanese have announced almost bluntly that the Mukdenites, if beaten, shall not pass the Shan- haikwan barrier. Japan is preparing to use all the force necessary for this purpose, for it is indicated that a division from Korea will re- inforce the normal Manchurian gar- ricon, which comprises a full divi- sion, with the addition of two mixed brigades. Additional forces will be moved from Japan as need: ed. (The Japanese division at war strength consists of 18,700 of- ficers and men. A brigade would range numerically from- 1,500 to 3,000 men.) The correspondent of The As- sociated Press learned authorita- tively that the Japanese Minister, Kenkichi Yoshizawa, in presenting the memorandum to Chang Tso-lin, verbally advised him to withdraw Chinese Generals, which, in effect, --_-- Woman Driver Ilike to drive with Cham- JloaSpark Ps because I'll not annoy. d with os temperatures of the modern sion engine.

The Empire Marketing Board advocates the use of the two words "Empire-Canada" in order to con- form to the policy it has adopted in advertising Empire products. The application of the Merchan- dise Act of 1926 to apples comes as a result of representations made by fruit trade eommrissioner, J. Forsythe Smith at the instance of the Canadian Horticultural Coun- cil. The application was support- ed by the Australian Common- wealth Government, Canada, Aus- tralia and New Zealand supply the United Kingdom with 99 per cent Empire, and 40 per cent of the to- tal imports from all sources, The Merchandise Act also pro- vides that a label or show card must be used in retail stores, In- dicating 'to intending purchasers the origin of the apples, ENGLAND RETAINS FAMOUS AIRPLANE Wright Brothers Hawk" Remains British Museum "Kitty in Philadelphia, May 18.--Phila- delphia"s hope of acquiring the Wright Brothers "Kitty Hawk' the first plane capable of sustained flight, Wednesday was hlasted for the time at least by Orville Wright, famous aviation pioneer. Jt had been planned to bring the ship to this city for permanent exhibition in the proposed new home of the Franklin Institute. But Mr, Wright declared the plane will remain in London dur- ing his lifetime or until the zen- eral impression that the "Kitty Hawk" was not the first ship to fly is corrected.

The matter was broached to Mr. Wright when he was taken to the parkway site of the proposed insti- tute building. EXIT THE HOUSEFLY (New York Times) Nothing is too great or too small for Mussolini. Last week he set onef hand to the altering of the entire system of government, while with the other he killed off all the flies in . ------ i scum | the country. Residents may not have noticed an instantaneous disappear- ance, but the flies are as good as dead this minute, because the Pre- micr has ordered their extermination. To make certain that every in- habitant does his share in fighting the pests, a penalty has been fixed for failure to report progres Tht slightest, a fine of 200 lire, will proh- ably fall on the citizen who does not buy Government flypaper and swat- ters, but insists on using home-made flytraps or rubber bands. He should not be punished too severely, for shooting flies with elastic is increas- ingly fascinating to the sportsman and will bring down a considerable bag. A thousand lire should be the fine for the poacher who leaves his own home to kill in a more populous terri ry, "How had you known your lon husband beipre you were married?"
