THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 1929 PAGE SEVEN STRONG CRITICISM OF INTERESTS OPPOSING HYDRO (Continued From Page 1) to injure the commission and fur- ther the spread of "wild specula- tions" as to what was being done. "It is not in the public inter- est," Mr, Ferguson began, 'that the Hydro should publish anything of the nature of their contracts, "I am not suggesting that my hon- orable friend (Mr. Sinclair) is in- spired by any ulterior motive, but there are a great many people who are against hydro and who have tried in devious wys to ger uum information. I should be glad to give this information to my honor- able friend--though perhaps that would not suit his purposes--but I am sure that it would not be fair to the hydro to disclose all the in- formation disclosed in this motion, "There are undoubtedly very definite tests being made to under- mine the Hydro enterprise, to cre- ate doubt in the minds of the pub- lic and to circumvent the commis- sion in various ways. That has been more definite in the last six months than ever before. It is not the desire of the government and I am sure it is not the desire of this house to aid anything of that sore. Withdrawa: The Premier then suggested that the motion be drawn and re- newed his promise to give any in- formation privately. Mr, Sinclair yielded, but reluc- tantly. "I am at a loss to know how there can be honest finance if the public does not know whence comes all the revenue," he object- ed. He asked what would happen if, for instance, the government de- cided that public policy prevented publication of financial adminis- tration of say the highways de- Juiiment. Suspicion would re- sult. Should Be Above Suspicion "Surely," he continued, "if the | hydro wants to be above suspicoin, it should give some statement to | the people as to its revenue. cannot see how it is going to hurt the hydro to give the information asked here. If there is revenue from power, export, surely we should know how much is gained from it so as to put at rest all sorts of wild speculations. If not, then you cannot blame the people for making their own estimates," -- Deaf? Hear With the New Ge sound is magnified, demcnstration.

Take the first sten to happiness, and call for this free NOTICE! = Thursday this week | Lovell The annual hydro commission report, the Liberal leader submit- ted, was not very enlightening to the man who had no technical knowledge of the pusiness. "Of course," he concluded, "if the government takes the attitude that it is against public policy, I am not going to be hostile, but I sub- mit it is not the right attitude and move that the brder be with- drawn." AGED MARSHAL | OF FRANCE DIES (Continued From Page 1) placed at the head of the newly formed IX, Army, to fill the gap in the line caused by the diverging directions of retreat of the IV. and | V. Armies, 'This .Army he com- | manded in the Battle of the Marne, being opposed to the German III. Army and part of the II. After several crises he finally repulsed the attack and initiated a counter- stroke which proved the pivot of the French victory. Made Generalissimo In 1916 Foch's group of armies supplied the French element in the battle of the Somme, Fro hat point. tn the events of March,M(918, the evolution of Foch's au was rapid. He was first, as advis- or to Clemenceau and as a soldier whose counsels carried more weight than those of any other, a power- ful indirect influence in the inter- Allied discussions as to the plan of campaign for 1918, Then as French member of the "Executive Committee," a sort of board of in- ter-Alliled command founded in January, 1918, he took his place almost as de jure president of that body. Lastly, the storm of the German offensive hroke on the British V. Army on March 21, and although Haig and Petain managed by cordial co-operation to recon- struct the broken line and check { the German advance, the situation remained so critical that the last step was takem, On March 27 by general consent Foch was nominat- ed to co-ordinate the operations of the British and French in France. On April 14 the title and author- ity of commander-in-chief was granted to him by the two govern- ents concerned, and on April 15, 17 and May 1 respectively by the Belgian, America nand Italian gov- ernments, The Final Blow On August 6, 1918, Foch was made a marshal of France. In the Can't Talk to Wife, Too Cross and Nervous "Even my husband couldn't talk to me, I was so cross and nervous, Vinol has made me a different and happy woman."--Mrs, N., McCall, Vinol is a compound of iron, pros- phates, cod liver peptone, etc. The very FIRST bottle makes you sleep 'better and have a BIG appretite. Nervous, easily tired people are sur- prised how QUICK! the iron, phos- phates, etc, give new life and pep. Vinol tastes delicious. Jury & Lov- ell, Druggists. Before buy look ko the lig!

But these cri- ses had been surmounted and to- wards the end of June, with his resources greatly augmented thru the emergency measures taken by the: American Government, the British sea transport authorities and Gen, Pershing in France, he ould begin preparations for his counter-offensive. From September 26 to the Armistice the whole front from the sea to Verdun was one continuous battlefield, controlled by one commander-in-chief. An ex- | tension of this battlefield into Lor: raine, where the final blow was tc be delivered on Nov, 14, was only prevented by the capitulation of the enemy, Born in 1851 . Ferdinand Foch was born at Tarbes, October 2, 1851, his father being a civic official and his mo- ther's father an officer of Napol- eon's army. Educated at Tarbes, Rodez and finally in the Jesuit Col- leges of St. Michel (Loire) and St, Clement (Metz) he was preparing for the entrance examination or the | Ecolé®Polytechnique in November, 1871. On being commissioned in 1873 he was posted to the artillery, in which arm the whole of his regi- mental service was spent. As a captain he became a student of the Staff College (Ecole de Guerre) in 1885 and left, with fourth place, in 1887. From this time until 1901, save for a period in which as major he commanded a group of horse artillery batteries, his work lay in the general staff of. the army, the staff of formations and the Ecole de Guerre. It was in the Ecole de Guerre that he developed his doc- trines and his influence on the edu- cation of the army. , From 1895 he was assistant professor, and from 1898, as lletenant-colonel, profes- sor of military history and strategy in that institution, first under Gen, Langlois and then under Gen Bon- nal, the two leaders of military thought whose work, with his own to complete it, established the new French doctrines of war, based on re-study and application of modern conditions of Napoleon's practice. UNKNOWN NUMBER KILLED IN WRECK (Continued From Page 1) Ferguson and a mnewsboy whose name has not been ascertained were officially reported killed in a preliminary statement issued - at railway headquarters, Montreal, early today while reports received here state that a fourth man also met death, The injured according to the official statement were En- ginesr Gauvreau, Fireman Horace Smith and Brakeman -~ Savage, while Baggageman McRoberts was reported missing, Both trains were on the To- ronto-Winnipeg run, Conductor Barstead being in charge of No, 3, westbound while Engineer Gauv- reau was at the throttle of No, 4, speeding east to Toronto, The injured are being rushed to Parry Sound, and notification to prepare all available accom- ; modation has been received by St. Josephs Hospital authorities, Early reports failed to indicate TRY MAGNESIA FOR STCMACH TROUBLE To Neutralize Acidity and Fermenta- tion. Prevents Indigestion, Sour Gassy Stomach. People who suffere from indigestion usu. ally have tried pepsin, charcoal, drugs and various digestive aids and got little more than slight temporary relief--sometimes mot even that, But before giving up to chronic dyspepsia, just try the effect of a little Bisurated Mag- nesia--not the ordinary commercial carbon. ate, citrate or milk, but pure Bisurated Mag- nesia which you can obtain from practically any druggist in'either powder or tablet form, Take a teaspoonful of the powder or four compressed tablets with a little water after your next meal, and see what a difference this makes, It "will instantly neutralize the dangerous, harmful acid in the stomach which now causes your food to ferment and sour, making gas, wind, flatulence, heart. burn and the bloated or heavy, lumpy feel. ing that seems to follow most everything you eat. You can enjoy your meals with- out a fear of indigestion, why the trains crashed on the single track north of here. The trains wére scheduled to meet at Waubamik, just north of Parry Sound, but it is reported that owing to one being behind sched- ule, the 'meet' had been ar- ranged at a point further north, Auxiliary equipment was order- ed out from Sudbury and Parry Sound, while a third special is re- ported northbound from Toronto. Within an hour after the wreck was reported, Dr. Denham, of Stone Memorial Hospital, and two nurses had left for the scene, while twu doctors and three nurses had been despatched from St. Joseph's Hos- pital, Sudbury. Access to the wreck which oc- curred at 3.568 a.m. in one of the loneliest sections of the counury north of here, is extremely difficult at this time of year and it is prob- able aid for the injured could only reach the spot by train, According to schedule, the east bound train should have been safe- ly past Parry Sound when the cui lislon occurred. Sleeping car and dining car equipment on both trains was of steel and local officials are of the opinion that had this not been the case the loss of life would have been much greater.
