WILL RETAIN 'RED' IN PRISON IN INDIA | Trial of Candidate Opposing Simon in British Elec- tions Postponed London, May 22.--According to communist headquarters in Lobn- don the Indian government has postponed the trial of a number of communists charged with conspir- acy and sedition at Meerut until af- ter the British election in order to keep Shakat Usmani, one of the accused who has been nominated to oppose Sir John Simon in Spen Valley, in jail. This, they say, is another demonstration of the "tyr- anny of British rule in India." > Usmani proposes to conduct his campaign by a series of cabled mes- sages. Communist headquarters state that despite 'his impending trial he is able to compose the mes- sages at his ease." Usmant's candidature is a com- munist_protest against British rule in India and in particular against the Indian statutory commission of which Sir John Simon is chairman.

MISFORTUNE DOGS CTY MOTORAN Follows Unlucky Driver Toronto, May 22, -- Misfortune during the past few weeks has kept doggedly upon the trail of Charles Cairns, 2 Morton road, the T.T.C. motorman who .is now awaiting trial on a charge of man- slaughter arising out of a fatal ac- cident in which the street car he was driving was involved on April 20 last. On April 17 the death was ans nounced of Adelaide Amanda, wife of George Cairns, of 46 St. David street; and the funeral was set for two days later, That was Charles Cairns' old mother. He was at the funeral on the Friday afternoon. Then, after paying his last respects at the graveside, he hurried off to work. Some hours later, between two and three o'clock Saturday morning, his Bloor car collided with an automobile, and both vehicles burst into flames. J. W. Barnes was burned to death and Charles Cairns, who had applied the emer- gency brakes which automatically lock all the doors, barely ecaped with his life. : Two weeks later, on Sunday, May 5, Mr. Cairns was walking from the office at the Coxwell car barns to take out the car he was to drive that day, when he was of the other men who was leaving for the day. His thumb was lac- erated and his left leg badly bruised. He hopes, however, to be in pretty good shape again by the time his case is brought to trial.
