--- THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1929 REPARATION ISSUE * SETTLED AT LAST Germany Consents to Pow- as The Hague, Aug. 30.--Agree- ment on the Young reparations plan, hailed as the greatest achievement posible to post-war European statesmanship, was reached yesterday by the six-power conference. As a consequence, the Rhine- land will be cleared of allied troops by June 30, this having been agreed upon also yesterday, con- tingent upon a final concert on the Young plan as a whole. The chief remaining problem is the establishment of an {interna- tional banking institution to handle funds under the Young plan. It was expected that experts would be named before the present con- ference udjourns, to work out the details of this. The chief points at' issue are the location of the pro- posed bank and the definition of its powers. In thus bringing to a successful conclusion the negotiations fin- stituted in this city, the conference surmounted numerons diffi ulties. Principal among these were the British demand for a greater pro- portion of the reparation annuities than provided by the experts who framed the Young plan at Paris, and Germany's insistence upon early withdrawal of all troops from the Rhineland. In both cases compromises solved the questions, At one stage the determined stand of Rt. Hon, Philip Snowden brousht about an impasse, but the hurdle was finally topped when France, Ttaly and Belgium agreed to charges in thelr quota which satisfied about 80 per cent. of the British claims, NEW MARTIN NOW PLAYING HOOT GIBSON "POINTS WEST" 2--COMEDIES--2 LAST CHAPTER The Final Reckoning "THE FINISH" This picture shows two aristo- crats of the feline tribe, caught by the cameraman displaying the keenest interest in his movements.

Convention Agreements Similarly Germany gave away on her evacuation demands in the face of concessions from Belgium and France. Great Britain early in the pro- ceedings announced that hér 6,000 troops remaining in Germany would start homeward Sept. 1, the date set for operation of the Young plan. Belgium agreed to start her withdrawals at the same time and France is to evacuate ona zone this fall. The final contingents, on the Mainz bridgehead, will not, however, be back in France until some time early next year. "A full session of the conference will be held tomorrow morning to clear up some of the details of the work. The last session of the con- ference is set for Saturday and it is planned to have the Young plan officially adopted then, The first mosquitoes of the sea- son were reported on the 24th.

Phone 1490 ONTARIO INCREASE SUBSIDY FOR MUSIC Premier Announces Plan at Exhibition Dinner of Organists Torono, Aug. 30.--The govern- ment proposes to increase the sub- sidy granted to public schools to stimulate the teaching of music, Premier Ferguson announced at a dinner given by the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition to the National Organists' asssociation and the Canadian College of Organists, who are holding a joint convention in Toronto this week, at the Coliseum last night, Referring to the development of Music day at the Exhibition, he said: "I am particularly interested in this as minister of education be- cause we have quite recently put music on our public school eurri- culum, the cast being borne by a subsidy from the public treasury, and we propose increasing the subsidy. "There is nothing equal to music, in my opinibn, even in the little red schoolhouse, if the teacher can sing a note at all, in encouraging group effort. Nothing aids education like music, and if as time goes on, I am still minister of education, I believe we will make music a more important fac- tor in our educational scheme and will carry it through our elemen- tary schools as well, right to the very peak." He congratulated the conventions on choosing Toronto as their meet- ing place, and especially on having planned to be present during Ex- hibition week. 'It's the gieatest thing of its kind in the world," he said, referring to the C.N.E. "There have been sporadic efforts, for in- stance, at Philadelphia," (this brought much laughter from Am- erican guests) "and at Wembley, but this goes on forever." The exhibition was invaluable as an educational factor, he point- ed out, and for the contact it al- lowed between peoples of different nations, "Personal contact is a great in- fluence," he said, "for it not only does away with friction, but moulds our thoughts along the same lines." The visitors were welcemed to Toronto by Mayor McBride, who said: "I understand that this is the first visit of your convention to the city, Toronto is the New York of Canada, just as New York is of the United States." "New York is dry," the premier interpolated. Mrs, Bruce S. Keater, president of the ladies' section, and R. L. McAll, president of the National Association of Organists, thanked the Ixhibition officials for their hospitality, and W. H. Hewlett, president of the Canadian College of Organists, spoke on behal?! of the Canadian orgagization.

WILLIAMS-YANCEY TELL THEIR STORY Attribute Forced Landing in Spain to Greed of Backers New York, Aug. 30--Two interna- tionally famous young men--Roger Q. Williams 'and Lewis A. Yancey-- attributed their forced landing in Spain on a projected Maine to Rome flight to the greed of their backers. The backers' greed, they said, de- manded speed. "Hurry up" was the word passed to the fliers as they waited favorable weather and beach smoothness for their take-off from Old Orchard, Me. "Hurry up" came the order when they protested ideal conditions were necessary for their plane to lift its heavy cargo of gaso~ line. 3 "Then dump some of the gasoline," the backers ordered. And Williams and Yancey did--60 gallons of it. Their reduced fuel supply barely carried them across the Atlantic. The 60 jettisoned gallons would have put them in Rome. But let Williams and Yancey tell it as they told it yesterday to Assist rand jury. ears and then to a federal L Planned Two For two years the aviatofs had planned to fly to Rome, When all was ready, their plane, Green Flash, cracked up on Old Orchard Beach. Disconsolate, they were ready to ace cept any offer of help. One came--from Arthur H. Mont- gomery and Gerald Tiffany, two afflu- eut-looking gentlemen who apparent ly took pity on them. Tiffany had $25,000 which he would put into a new plane "without any strings," he said. Montgomery would help, too. Mrs. Anne U. Stillman's plane, North Star, was bought, and rechris- tened Pathfinder. It was flown to Old Orchard and put in condition. Then Montgomery revealed a little secret, He was interested in forma- tion of the Airvia Company, he said, an aviation concern he hoped to let his sons run, But in the meantime he was ready to finance it two years out of his own pocket, and Williams and Yancey could help him, and them- selves too, by becoming president and vice-president of the company, Would they do that? They did. But first they exacted a promise, they told Silver, that no Airvia stock would be sold for two years. At this point Montgomery began saying "hurry up." He suggested they change the name of their plane to Spirit of Airvia. But they refused. He said "hurry up" some more, and they dumped the gasoline and landed in Spain, . They did not know, even then, they said, that Montgomery and Tiffany wanted to get them out of this coun- try so they could begin selling Airvia stock through their alleged buckst shop, Hadley and Co. Began to Suspect But after they reached Rome and were received by Mussolini and the Pop:, they began to suspect some- thing wrong. Mussolini handed them a cablegram,just received from Mont- gomery. It informed the strong man of Italy that the Airvia Company was sponsoring Italian projects, and asked Mussolini to reciprocate by giving Williams and Yancey a Savoia-Mas- chetti plane, in which to fly back to America, Williams and Yancey refused to ace cept the plane, They cancelled a pro- jected tour of Europe, and hurried 10 New York. They cancelled a planned tour of this country, and began inves- tigating. They found, they said, that Hadley and Company had sold 35,000 shares of Airvia stock in violation of the Montgomery-Tiffany promise. They risigned their posts with Air- via and laid the facts before U. S. Attorney Tuttle. Tuttle caused the arrest of Montgomery and Tiffany on charges of fraudulent use of the mails Yancey and Williams learned that their affluent backers had something in their pasts which they did not con- fide when they said = "hurry up," Montgomery had served a term in Atlanta prison for a shady stock- selling scheme. Tiffany is said to be wanted in Georgia on a3 larceny charge. At this season of the year some people wonder that here are no wild flowers where they tore up #0 eRy last year.--Kitchener Hou ord.

Silver, | VICTIM OF FUMES IN HUGE GAS TANK Boy Dies at Play and Fire man Overcome in At- tempted Rescue CALL FOR CAS MASK Frantic Parents Wait Out. Toronto, Aug. 30.--The dark and fume-filled interior of a huge gaso- ling tank became the death trap of an eight-year-old boy yesterday. Boyish curiosity exacted a terrible enalty from Edward Bain of 247 nsdowne avenue when the lad climbed through the opening of the tank at the rear of Rogers' coal yard on Lansdowne avenue south of Dun- das street, Death was mercifully swift, Only four inches of gasoline was in the 10-foot deep tank but the chamber was filled with fumes and Edward Bain was render unconscious before he had time to realize his aw- ful predicament, How the boy came to enter the tank is not known. Whether the cap on top of the tank had been un- screwed or whether the boy himself had uncovered the opening, is not known by the authorities. Shortly af- ter 8 p.m. a coal driver working near the railroad siding rushed into the 'Lansdowne fire station with the news that a boy had fallen into a gasoline tank.

DEATH OF CUMMINS DECLARED ACCIDENT Verdict Disregards Plea to Prohibit Use of Ethyl Chloride in Toronto Toronto, Aug. 30.--Thorough in- vestigation by the provincial gov- ernment into the use of ethyl chlor- ide as an anaesthetic was demand- ed last night at the city morgue by a coroner's jury inquiring into the death of Mary Cummins, 16-year- old Mossom road high school girl, who died last Saturday morning on the operating table in St. Michael's hospital. The jury did not go as far as the coroner, Dr. J. M. Casserly, urged.

Many Doctors Attend From a medical point of view the inquest was one of the most important ever held in this city. Several of the 12 witnesses were experts, and the weight given their opinions was indicated by the fact that at least half of the large audi- ence which' crowded the small chamber were doctors or medical students. Hon. Dr. Forbes God- frey, minister of health, was un- avoidably absent. That the point at issue--the use of ethyl chloride--is a 'debatable matter medically was demonstrates by the expert evidence. It. wa: agreed, on one hand, that ether was the safest of known anaesthe: tics and that ethyl chloride wag: te- latively dangerous. On the other hand, it was contended that the quicknéss of ethyl chloride to-in- duce unconsciousness as compared to the slowness and unpleasantiess of induction by ether, was sufficient to justify the use of the more pot= ent drug.
