THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, AUGUST 18, 1928 PAGE ELEVEN (uoR EXPORT TRADE ILLEGAL . Ia Ruling By Border Mag- istrate--Storage System MEicit Windsor, Aug. 17.--Holding that a common carrier has his limitations in the export of liquor, in that he must safely deliver to the consignee with- out involving the of W. A. Smith, t crime, Magistrate W. at Sindh, today declared in effect t the whole business of exporting for is i 1 uAder jan law. istrate Smith was giving neh the case ist Ward Irey, of W tte, h., who was Charged uth illegal purchase. Irey was $200 and costs, in addition to having his rowboat confiscated. Msgistrug Smith, ried ake that exporters in warehouses at their Socks are guilty of being in illegal possession, and that sale of liquor from a stock held in the warehouse of exporters is con~ trary to the Liquor Control Act. This point, while not involved in the case, dealt with by Magistrate Smith, is a ruling the Government secks in the Sharges to be heard by Magistrate ro" --« \io Before Brodie The judgment by Magistrate Smith came a few hours after Mr. Shaver had announced that all the illegal possessions charges against export men were to be heard by Magistrate Brodie, and that the Attorney-General had ruled against having them on the docket of Magistrate Smith's court, C ing his judg t by re- viewing the arrest of Irey at La Salle on June 28, Magistrate Smith point- ed out that Irey had no permit to purchase strong beer in Ontario, and that his purchase was not made from UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO TWO NEW COURSES FOR YOUNG WOMEN Occupational Therapy, a two-year course leading to a university diploma, pares young women for an interesting and a profitable career as therapists.

Ome of the responsibilities, the Court proceeded, is not only to carry safely, but to deliver safely to the consignee. "It is a matter of common know- ledge," the Magistrate said, "that im- tion of hquor into the United tates is ibited and no delivery can, tl ore, be made in that coun- try which does not necessarily involve the commission of a crime. "It 'has been said by high authority that no law can permit itself to be evaded, nor can it, consistent with the principles of intermational jurispru- 3 ion the ion of a for- eign law. Thus, if the thing con- tracted to be done is illegal by the law of the place of int perform- ance, the contract should be held void, wherever it was actually entered in- to, by all the courts alike." Using the war-time art of camou- lage, employees of the Erie Transit and Inter-Transit Company, who are involved in the illegal possession charegs to be heard by Magistrate D. M. Brodie on Monday, have out- witted the United States border pa- trol, and led them to believe that $1,- 000,000 worth of liquor is still in the warehouses. ' While S r C. Sleeper, cc der of the patrol, is issuing state- ments denying that the fleet of rum boats has run the blockade, export- ers, in some manner which they re- fused to disclose, have removed at least two-thirds of the liquor releas- ed by the Ontario Liquor Control Board when a bond of $700,000 was given. It is true, as Sleeper stated yester- day, that twenty boats, apparently loaded or in the act of loading, are moored at the docks of the exporters, but during the dark hours, despite a searchlight used at frequent periods from some point on the Detroit shore, some of these boats depart, and are replaced by incoming craft. This morning, as was the case yes- terday when Sleeper's men made an investigation from mid-stream, there were twenty boats at the docks, but twelve of them were different vessels to those seen yesterday. + Blockade Ineffective While employees a t the two docks declined to allow strangers at or near the warehouses, The Globe was able to obtain evidence that Sleeper's blockade has proven ineffective, and that a big proportion of the liquor is now out of the Province, as promised by legal advisers of the exporting companies when the bond was de- posited with the Government. Walter Hardie, Secretary-Treasur- er of the Eric Transit Company, the witness who was "missing" yesterday when Magistrate D. M. Brodie allow- ed an adjournment of the charge against the Erie Corporation, will be on hand to testify for the defense next Monday. Harry Low, Vice-President of the Erie company, made this statement this morning in denying that Hardie was "missing." Low explained that Hardie was in New York in connec- tion with "family matters," and that it was not unusual for him to he ah- sent from the city. A CANADIAN-MADE PRODUC WARSHIP AUSTRALIA ARRIVES IN QUEBEC Elaborate Program for En- tertainment of Officers and Men Quebec, Aug. 17.--H.M.AS. Australia is now in port on its first trip to Quebec. The flagship of the Australian battle fleet nego- tiated the trip from Montreal to Quebec in a little over nine hours. Despite the intense heat a huge crowd was on Dufferin Terrace to witness the warship glide along the St, Lawrence, negotiate the narrow opening into the Louise Basin, and there come to rest alongside shed 20, which will be her home until next Monday, when she is scheduled to sail for Halifax. An elaborate program has been drawn up for the entertainment of the officers and men of the Aus- tralia during their stay here. CHURCH PROBLENS 70 BE DISCUSSED Winnipeg, Man,, Aug. 18.--Conven- ing in Young Church in this city on Sept. § for consideration of current problems, the General Council of the United Church of Canada will be on familiar ground to the makers of church union. It was when in re- sponise to a challenge irom the late Principal Patrick, of Manitoba Col- lege, issued its declaration that con- ferences on union, with the Congre- gational and Presbyterian Churches would be "a source of gratification." Again in 1916 the Presbyterian General Assembly, meeting in Win-' nipeg, took the decision which led to the organization of the United Church of Canada nine years later. The twe previous General Councils, at Toronto in 1925 and at Montreal in 1926, were occupied principally with arganization of the United Church of Canada. The forthcoming third General Council, which is the first in two years, will probably be fully occupied for 10 days or more in considering plans for furtherance of the Church's tasks, especially evangelistic and missionary direc- tions. For the year 1929 and 1930, leading up to the 19th centenary of Pente- cost, it is anticipated that the United Church of Canada as a whole and in its congregations will direct its effort toward deepening of spiritual life and reaching out after unin terested persons and hostile groups. At an early session of the Couns cil the retiring Moderator, Rev, James Endicott, D.D.,, LLD., who has toured the eight foreign missions une der instruction from the Council's executive, will report on the outlook for Christian extension abroad. One major problem of organization, that of setting up a pension fund for ministers and their dependents, was left over from the last General Coun- cil for further consideration and de- velopraent. This year a constitution for the new fund has been prepared and will be presented by the com- mission first appointed in 1925 to that task. Two matters which were thought contentious were referred to com- mittees by the last General Council, The one on cadet corps and officers training corps has been thoroughly studied by a large committee and an exhaustive report is to be presented. The report on the second question, the ordination' of women and their place in church courts, was completed last year and has been before the Presbyteries for their report back to General Council, Besides the 422 commissioners reg- ularly elected by conferences this year, the General Council will bring to Winnipeg many visitors desirous of witnessing the proceedings, which will include public meetings to be ad- dressed by speakers specially select ed for their participation in the ac- tual work of the Church on the fron- tiers, in special fields and in mission nds. Important local arrangements are being periected by a Winnipeg com- mittee of which Sir J. A. M. Aikens is honorary chairman, L. J. Reycraft, K.C,, chairman, and Rev. J. A. Cor» mie, D.D,, secretary. CRUISER PROGRAM MAY BRING CRISIS Reichstag Likely to be Call. ed to Settle the Matter Berlin, Aug. 17.--Approval by the cabinet for construction of a new battle cruiser to replace the obsolete Prussia, may create a gov- ernment crisis that will necessitate a meeting of the Reichstag, well informed quarters believed. A semi-official statement em- phasized that the cabinet was bound to abide by the passage of navy estimates of the last Reich- stag in the matter of the Prussia's construction. The first installment will be made under the navy budget while the approval brought out that fu- ture installments will be defrayed on the basis of the most strict eco- nomy. The government denied that in voting the new battle cruiser the cabinet had agreed to the replace- ment of the remainder of the four obsolete battleships, which the Ver- sallles Treaty permits Germany to maintain. No sooner had the announcement heen {issued than did the executive socialist party and the socialist deputies in the Reichstag issue a joint statement deploring the Socialist cabinet uc- tion of approval. semi-final ON BEHALF OF HER BABY (B. C. Forbes) On a recent.visit to a hospital the talk turned to the younger gen- eration, One nurse related this in- cident: ,'A well-to-do young girl, very much of the flapper type, came here and smoked cigarettes constantly hoth before and after her baby was born. When I sug- gested to her that I didn't think it was good for her to smoke so much at that time, she paid no at- tention. I next said that it wouldn't do the baby any good. She imme- diately hecame interested. 'Is that 80?" che asked. "Then, I'm through." and never once did she smoke another cigarette all the time she was here."
