LEGISLATURE MAY VALIDATE BUS LINE PURGHASES DEAL STILL PENDING FOR PURCHASE OF "OSHAWA LINES Toronto, April 9.--Hy unani- mous vote last night the Board of Control at its second special meet- ing of the day instructed / City Solicitor Colquhoun to see Pre- mier Ferguson this morning and ask him if the Government will assist the city at the next session of the Legislature in securing the following enactment: 1. That the acts of the Toronto Transportation Commission, prior to April 8, in acquiring the capi- tal stock of the Gray Coach Lines, Ltd., is hereby validated and con- firmed. 2. That the said Commission may establish, acquire and oper- ate motor vehicle transportation services extending outside the cor- porate limits of the City of To- ronto upon first obtaining the con- sent of the .city to establish and acquire and operate such services. 3. That the said Commission may entrust to Gray Coach Lines, Ltd,, the operation and mainten~ ance of any of its motor vehicle transportation services. The board. will meet again at 10.30 o'clock this morning to hear from Mr. Colquhoun as to whether the Premier will promise to aid the city in getting this legislation.

Two Lengthy Sessions City Council at a special meeting this morning will probably ap- prove the purchase of two bus routes to Oshawa. In fact. the To- ronto Transportation Commission may be authorized ' to purchase, through its subsidiary, Gray Coach Lines, Ltd., the five routes owned by four companies. The Board of Control held two lengthy sessions with Commission- er E. J. Lennox and D. W; Harvey, Gentral Manager of the .T. T. C., at which the whole question of the Commission's activities in the interurban bus services were re- viewed. From the viewpoint that no fur- ther bus lines should be acquired, a majority of the board gradually swutig around to practically agrec- ing that the lines on the Kingston Road to Oshawa should be pur- chased. Mayor McBride said last night that he thought the Premier would assist the city to this extent. A number of the members of Coun- cil also were .of the opinion that if the Board of Control so recom- mended, all five routes would be acquired. Mr. Harvey sald that these purchases would give all the lines the Commission wanted, with the exception of 'a few tag ends." At the .morning conference, which lasted from 10 o'clock to 1.35 p.m., Controller Gibbons moved that -the Comimission be asked to sell all the bus services it now operated. The Commission said that for the original invest- ment of :$1,000,000 it could get $3,000,000. The Mayor voted wiht Mr. Gibbons, Con. Hacker, Wemp an Summerville were op- posed. Con, Wemp said this would give outsiders franchises on the' Con. Gibbons--When' you speak of buying, it is only "permits.that are: good for nine months" that are involved.

Mr, Harvey said that he had made arrangements: :to have the déals kept open "until noon today, but to do so he had to pay $1,000 for an option on one and in an- other case. a deposit of $10,000 was paid.' Mr. Lennox said that consider- able time had been spent in get- ting the figures the board wanted, and asked that they be not made public. The Mayor said that most of the information -had appeared in the press, and suggested writing the Commission 'a letter asking how. the news got out. Con. Wemp and Mr. Harvey explained that the information had 'been given out by the 'lines, or competitors, who were trying to' purchase them, Before certain information was imparted to the board, representa tives .of the Central Ontdrio Bus Lines were: asked to leave the room. ; hr Smith--Are you getting a new car this year?

Flood waters were receding, damage was being repaired and interrupted .transpor- tation and communication facilities rapidly restored. Railways were still operating un- der. difficulties and gangs of work- men were restringing telegraph and telephone wires, Officials of the Bell Telephone Company announced today that 800 poles and 1,500,000 feet of wire would be required to repair the damage to their lines. The Com- pany estimate of damage through- out the system placed the amoun¥ at approximately $300,000. Rail- way officials have not attempted to estimate the damage to roadbeds, and equipment.

C.P.R. trains for Ottawa and Mantreal were run over the Cana- dian National lines as far as Port Hope. Service over the regular lines will be resumed in the morn- ing.

DAWES LIKELY TO BE AMBASSADOR Washington, April 9.--Appoint- ment of Charles Gates Dawes as ambassador to the Court of St. James is expected in a few days. Financial matters are recognized as the chief diplomatic problem be- tween England and the United States for the first time since col- onists, some of whom were sent from English jails, because they could not pay their debts, won their freedom from financial op- pression. In Washington's view, the fight now is between London and New York for world financial supremacy. A private mission is in England now trying to get Britain's General Electric to admit its secur ities to free trade. The British radio monopoly is being fought and protested, and London's grip on South American finance is nettling New York. This task elevates fin- ancial battles to the peak of diplo- macy. Mr. Dawes, merely a former vice- president of the United States, but everything in the world to Europe through authorship of the Dawes plan of reparations, is believed to have gone over the entire problem with President Hoover before de- parting for Santo Domingo as head of an American commission to put that country on its financial feet. The delegation, when it sailed, ex- pected to finish its task in six weeks.
