INSIST ON DISARMAMENT Ambassador Discussed the Franco-American Situation | Paris.--In a comprehensive re- view of the current Franco-Amer- ican situation, Ambassador Wal- ter Edge squarely posed disarma- ment as the clue to American col- Jaboration, in the course of a vis- it to Premies Edouard Herriot. the .first since the Ambassador's return. from America. Mr. Edge, it was also learned, emphasized that the assurance that if the principle of abstention from fur- ther commercial restrictions, such as is found in the Franco- British confidence pact, wcyjd be applied to the Umited States it would have further satisfactory effect on both business and gen- eral sentiment. The obvious link between the Ambasador"s visit to Premier Herribt and reports of Senator William E. Borah's plan of cam- paign for cancellation of war debts owed to America in return for a 50 per cent. armaments re- duction, received comment in French circles, even though on the American side it was denied explicitly that any mention of in- ter-governmental debts had taken place at the Edge-Herriot con- ference. The fact that the American Embassy's communique -mention- ed neither disarmament nor trade restrictions, but referred to Mr, Edge's visit as a courtesy call following his return to his post, was discounted in French official quarters, where it was in- dicated that the Ambassador had insisted to M. Herriot that the rigidity of America's attitude to- ward European problems could only be changed by definite pro- gress toward disarmament. "What a pity," said the man of law, "that vou'd never heard the old adage: "Do right and fear no man: don't write and fear no wo- ne man.

SOUTH VENIE BAND ENTERTAINED BY ORANGE LODGE Presentation Made to Band- master at Pleasant Function A very pleasant evening was spent in the Orange Lodge rooms in the citv on Wednesday night when Queen Mary Lodge No. 97 were hosts to the Oshawa Juvenile Boys' Band, which made such a fine showing at the parade on July 12. The program which was under the supervision of Mrs. Wragg, as con- venor, was very ably carried out. After the transaction of the regular bysiness the members of the lodge repaired to the banquet hall where tables were laid in a most artistic manner, decorated tastefully in orange and white. At the conclusion of the banquet Sister Wood, a very active worker with the juveniles, called on: Mr. James McCulloygh, bandmaster of the Juvenile Band and on behalf of the band presented him with a box of cigarettes and a beautiful case. Mr. McCullough made a fitting reply thanking the band for their gift which he stated he highly appre- ciated. Short speeches were given by Sister Wood, Sister Goodall, an- other active worker with the juven- iles, W.M. Sister Howe, D.M. Sis- ter Boughton and Sister White. Mr. McCullough called Mr. George Thompson to the front of the hall and on behalf of the boys of the band presented him with a set of drum sticks in appreciation of the help he had given them. The gathering then repaired to the lodge rooms where a fine pro- gram of music was enjoyed. Those taking part: were Mrs, Morgan, piano solo; Sister Toms, solo; Sis- ter White, reading; Sister Simpson, solo. A trio consisting of members of the boys band presented a fife selection. A special feature of the program was selections on the drum by Master Teddie Morgan, who also contributed several tap dance num- bers. Several numbers were also presented by the kazoo band of Queen Mary Lodge under the di- rection of Sister Severs. DOCTORS OPPOSE LONDON SCHEME Hospital Fails in Plans for Better Service London. -- A London hospl- tal"s schemes to. provide treat- ment and accommodation for tne middle classes at low and inclu- sive charges has heen withdrawn chiefly, it is stated, because of the opposition of doctors practic: ing in districts round the hospi- tal, Denmark Hill, S.E, Its scheme, which was av- nounced only two months ago, provided for three weeks' main- tenance in hospital in return for an annual payment of $4 a year. A married couple with children were to have the same benefits for any one of the family for $8. An official of the hospital told a reporter that the scheme had been withdrawn "owing to diffi- culties of medical etiquette and of administration." The main difficulty has been the opposition of doctors. Under the scheme the local doctor lost his patient, for when the sub- scriber went to the hospital, treatment was to be given. only by the hospital staff. People in the district who were thinking of becoming subscribers naturally asked the advice of their doctors, and when the loca!' practitioner's influence was not exerted in favor of the scheme it could not hecome a success.

C. Jennings, 310 Rich- mond Street east on April 23 where he tgok a pair of shoes and a hunt- ing knife; Albert Street school on May 26 when a number of sweaters, pens and pencils were taken; the home af M. Rogers, 494 King Street east on April 28 when a key was taken and the home of Samuel Babe 29 Charles Street on November 1, 1931, when an electric clock, several dozen cggs and other articles were taken. A. W. S. Greer, counsel for the accused, called Mrs. Rivers, wife of the accused and also his father, Noel Rivers, Sr., both of whom said he had been a good provider for the family of three children until he lost his employment a year and a half ago. Character evidence was also given by Mr. Hill, proprietor of a grocery in Lindsay, and Tony Bolahood, King Street East, both of whom said Rivers had been a trust- ed employe in their stores at var- ious times. Plea For Accused Mr. Greer pointed out to the court the accused must have been motivated by a desire to maintain his family as the thefts were of ar- ticles of minor value. However, he did not suggest that this was any mitigation of the offenses but ra- ther indicated an unselfish motive who only wanted to support his wife and children. Rivers was not in the class of hardened criminals Mr. Greer asserted, and he felt that a long term would impose a hard- ship on the family and the accused alike. A long tern, he said, would only add to the distress of the fam- ily. He asked that the lightest pos- sible sentence be imposed and that the term if any be dated from the time of his arrest in June, He also asked that any prison terms might be sect to run concurrently, Crown's Argument J. A. McGibbon, Crown Counsel, asserted emphatically that he could not recommend suspended sentence as sech a judgment did not enter into the character of the case. He said further that there was no jus- tification for the thefts as if every person in need in the city followed the same course householders would be victimized. It was no excuse that he was trying to keep the family together. The offenses were unfor- tunate Mr. McGibbon said as the accused was such a young man, His Worship pointed out that four of the five charges were for break- ing and entering at night, a very serious offence punishable by life imprisonment, However he would take into consideration the provious good record of the accused. His Worship . felt that while such of- fenses were usually punished by a term in Kingston Penitentiary, the law would be served by a lesser sentence, but he warned Rivers that he could expect np mercy from any court if he ever came up on as serious a charge again. He ex- pressed the hope that the accused would live down his past and make amends for the wrong he had com- mitted. His Worship refused to lis- ten to the plea of defense counsel that the prison term should date from the time of his arrest, Winston-Salem, N.C, Aug. S. Libby Holman Reynolds, Broadway singer, and Albert Walk®¥, Wins- ton-Salem youth, were indicted yes- terday for the murder of Libby's husband, Smith Reynolds, heir to an estimated $15,000,000 tobacco fortune.

Ratto, inimitable char. acter artist and impersonator, gave a most unique progranmung at the evening performance of Chautauqua yesterday, In a brief period of time he had representzd to his au- dience in startling likeness the well known . characters, Llovl George, S. Clemenceau, ex-prenier of France, ex-President Woodrow Wil- son of United States, and William N. Gladstone. Subdued lighting effects, and a remarkable feat in the art of make- up added greatly to Mr. Ratto's performance of "The Master's Vio- lin", in which he repres:nted an old Germa,, professor who had once known success and popularity is a violinist but who through ill-for- tune was forced to sell his valuable instrument to buy bread, to keep him alive during old age. In this number he reached a dramatic stan- dard that would not be easily sur- passed, A humorous number on tie pro- gramme, and at the same tune a clever character impersonation was that of the pious old clergyman at- tending a football match at his Al- ma Mater, in which his grandson wag one of the leading players. Mi. Ratto also excelled himself in his presentation of one of Rudyard Kiplinz's poem and in a comic Irish sketch.

FRAUD FOUND IN REPARATION CASE Senator Logan Condemned | for Share in Claim for Steamer Loss Ottawa, Aug. 5.--Strong com- demnation of Senator Hance J. Logan, Amherst, N.S., is made by Chief Justice Harvey of Alberta in the Gypsum Queen case. The report to the Dominion Govern- ment follows inquiry into the war reparations payments of $71,276.62 to Captain Freeman Hatfield, vanished alleged sole owner of the vessel, in March, 1931. Senator Logan was solicit- or for Captain Hatfield. No Submarine Commissioner Harvey finds that the evidence "indubitably" establishes that the three-mzsted Nova Scotia vessel had nof@een destroyed, as alleged by man submarine action in 1915. The Chief Justice further findefthat the Gypsum Queen had beeil" lost through ordinary marine peril: and there was no justification for any claim for compensation out of German reparation momeys. Commissioner Harvey comes to the conclusion that "nator Lo- gan received "approximately one- half" of the $71,276.62 repara- Hon payment '""for his own bene- WAR MEMORIES WERE REVIVED AT LEGION CAMP (Gontinged Pd page 1) were W.

Aftes Business Hours Phone 850 WHITBY EDITOR-- AMES H. ORMISTCN WHITBY YOUTHS PLEAD GUILTY T0 THEFT CHARGE Widow Tells Court Her Son Is Unmanageable-- Whipping Suggested Two Whitby youths, Morley Stevens and Russell Fowler, pleaded guilty before Magistrate J. E. Willis in police court Thurs- day afternoon to breaking into the garage of Peter. Bryck and stealing articles therefrom. They were remanded in custody for a week for sentence. One of the lads, Fowler, has been in trouble before, being giv- en a chance a year or two ago when he was found guilty of breaking into houses in town, Stevens was described by his wid- owed mother who came to court as a disobedient.and unmanage- able boy, one who had a good home and plenty to eat but who would not work or do what he was told. The mother goes out working to keep a family of four, she told the court, but frankly admitted that she could do noth- ing with Morley. "What you need is a sound thrashing and I wish the law per- mitted the court to order one for you," said Crown Attorney J. A. McGibbon, addressing Stevens, adding that this evas the first time since his appoifitment as Crown Attorney that he had ever heard a mother come to court and frankly state that she could do nothing with her son, although she had provided a gbod home for him. The Crown Attorney told both boys that they should be thoroughly ashamed of themsel- ves, also that they were liable to a long term of imprisonment for the offence to which they had pleaded guilty. Both should be whipped, he said. Fowler was re- minded that he had been given a chance on a previous occasion, but apparently he did not appre- ciate it. The Crown Attorney said that he could mot consent to suspend- ed sentence in either case in view of Fowler's previous record and what Stevens' mother had said of him, Perhaps when Stevens came back from serving a term he would appreciate his home, the Crown Attorney added. CASE REMANDED A WEEK Arthur McCullough was charg- ed with having liquor in a place other than his private dwelling, and pleaded not guilty. After the evidence was heard Magistrate Willis reserved his decision until he hears a similar charge against Roy Gerrow, to be heard next Thursday afternoon, and in which the evidence is much the same. McCullough, not long a resident of Whitby, was alleged to have armed himself with a bottle of al- cohol and in company with Ger- row set out first for the home of Matthew Campbell, who refused to také a drink when it was of- fered to him and intimated he did not want to have drinking in his house. The next place visited was the home of Mr. Dykes, an aged resident of the town, where it was alleged, refreshments were: served from a little bbttle con- taining alcohol. While the drink- ing was in progress, William Har- ris, a relative of Mr. Dykes, ap- peared upon the scene and order- ed McCullough to leave the place. Some trouble resulted, and soon McCullough started for home via a back fence, Mr, Harris and his daughter, Edith, swore that as McCullough was going over the fence a bottle dropped. out of his pocket. It was picked up by Har- ris, handed over to Chief Quan- trill who later appeared upon the scene in respomse to a call stating that there was fighting going on at the Dykes home. The Chief swore that the bottle was taken to the police office and sealed in front of McCullough. It was ad- mitted to comtain intoxicating lig- ur. W. H. Kenney of Whitby ap- peared.for McCullough and set up the defense that McCullough had no money to buy alcohol, and had according to the weight of evid- ence, never been in possession of any on the date stated. McCullough stoutly denied hav- ing possession of alcohol, stating that two bottles were bought at a local h'ouse by Gerrow, his part- ner, for a dollar each, and that so far ag he was concerned he had never had them in his possession, VAGRANT REMANDED Charged with vagrancy, George Jaisson, a man picked up on the street by Constable Thomas, and having no visible means of sup- port, was remanded in custody for a week. The Chief Constable stated that his finger-prints had been taken and sent to the Unmit- ed States. WANTED LAWYER At the request of Billy Gerrow, charged with having liquor in other than a private dwelling, a remand for a week was granted at his owm request. He said he wanted to Io Ee} a lawyer.
