Loyal True Blues, and Employee of Schofield Woollen Mills Seized with a sudden attack of Reart failure while taking part in an important meeting of Victor- ia Lodge, No. 55, Loyal True Blues, of which he was financial secretary, in the Orange Hall last night, George Logeman, well known and respected citizen ol Oshawa for the last twenty-five years, collapsed in his chair and died before medical 'aid could reach him. Although it had been known that Mr. Logeman was subject to heart attacks, they had not troubled him for some years, and his sudden passing came as a great shock to his fellow-members of Vietoria Lodge, and to the wide circle of friends in Oshawa who esteemed him highly. The lodge meeting was immediately adjourned, and the sincerest pos- sible sympathy was extended to his sorrowing wife and family, End Came Suddenly . Mr. Logeman had seemed in hig _ usual good health yesterday, and early*in the evening attended a ball game. He then went to the lodge meeting, and seemed in his susual cheery self. Suddenly, he complained of not feeling well, and asked for a glass of water. His wife went to get it for him, but he slumped down in his chair, and passed away. Dr. F. J. Rundle was called, and efforts were made to revive the deceased, but to no bd Freight Rates Cut on Coal From States Baltimore, Aug. 23.--Re- duction of freight rates of 18 cents on a net ton of lake cargo coal between certain rail points and some great lake ports was announced last night by Harry A.

The relief committee of the city council is to meet to-night when one of the principal problems un- der discussion will be ways and means of providing shelter for unfortunate citizens who have served with eviction orders from their homes owing to their inabil ity to pay remt. No fewer than seven of these cases were brought to the atten- tion of Mayor Hawkes this morn- ing, and in each instance the ten- ant in question had been given three days' notice to leave by the Forest Hill Development Com- pany, owners of the property. The amounts owing for rental vary to a great degree, in one in- stance the amount being placed at $1,050., this being the highest, while the lowest amount was only 16. Becoming Acute The committee finds that the whole problem of administering relief in this city is becoming still avail. The spark of life had fled, and a sorrowing wife and eleven children left to mourn their great loss. Mr. Logeman was 56 years old, and was a native of Amsterdam, Holland. He came to Oshawa 25 years ago, and for 24 years had been a valued emplovee of the Schofield Woollen Mills in the capacity of engineer. Keen Lodge Worker Outside of his home life, which was a particularly happy one, Mr. Logeman's chief interest lay in the work of Victoria Lodge, No. 55, Loyal True Blues, of which he had been a member for twenty years, and of which he was finan- cial secretary. He was keenly in- terested in its affairs and welfare, and practically died in harness in the service of the lodge. He was also a member of the local lodge of the Knights of Phythias and of Corinthian Lodge, 1.0.0.F., and was, to a lesser degree, perhaps, interested in the work of these orders. Mr, Logeman is survived by his wife and eleven children, these being George Logeman, Kansas City, Mrs. Paul Keith, Kansas City, Mrs. Alf. Lavender, Oshawa, William Logeman, of the Oshawa Fire Department, and Nellie, Christine, Herbert, May, Clara, Elsie and Jack, at home. His mo. ther, Mrs. George Logeman, Sr., also lives in Oshawa, and 18 82 years old while there, are two brothers, Joseph Logeman, in Holland, and Paul Logeman, of Oshawa, and two sisters, Mrs. C. A.

None of the accused was repre- sented and the cases were quickly disposed of. The deputy magistrate heard the evidence of Constables Booth and Miller, who laid the charges. Both were in plainclothes. They told of waiting outside differ- ent drug stores for the purpose of checking purchases and said when customers emerzed they questioned them and if they admitted buying ~oods, promptly asked them to re- turn to the stores. The officers stated that in each case the clerks in charge admitted making sales. Mackenzie King Defers His Comment on Agreements Until Parliament Meets Ottawa, Aug. 23. -- Warning | against hasty conclusions as to the results of the Imperial Eco- nomic Conference, Rt. Hon. Mac- kenzie King, leader of the Liberal party, declined to comment for the present when he was asked his views yesterday. There would be time enough to comment, he sald, once the Government has given to the country, in detail, the particulars which alone can glve meaning to many of the clauses of the agreements, which were signed on Saturday amd gi- ven to the public on Monday. ' The administrative interpreta. tion to be given by the Goverm- ment to other clauses would be no less important in any estimate of the value of the clauses them- selves. . "Much of the language of the agreements," he declared, "is va- gue and general, and what value is to be attached thereto would only be apparent after careful ex- amination of the various tariff items effected and the probable effect of proposed changes on the extent and trends of our trade. '"As the agreements do not be- come operative until afer legisla. tive enactment by Parliament, there will, fortunately, be plenty of time meanwhile for careful ex- amination into these and kindred matters, before the subject be- comes one of discussion im Par- liament. "In my opinion," Mr. King add- ed, "ultimate judgment thereon will be all the sounder by the avoidance meanwhile of conclu- sions too hastily reached, and based on information which in its present form is obviously inadGs- quate," COMMITTEE ON RELIEF WILL MEET TO DISCUSS PROBLEM OF SHELTER Exhibition of Vegetables on Wed., Aug. 31 Sponsors 'Meeting With Good Response to Ap- peal For Prizes Some, confusion appears to have arisen regarding the date of the ex- hibition of vegetables by the unem- ployed men of this city, judging from requests for information which have come in to the office of The Times by telephone, some persons having had the idea that the ex- hibition was to be held tomorrow. This, of course, is not the case. As was announced in The Times last Saturday, the exhibition Is to bc held in Rotary Hall o, Wednes- day, August 31, which is a week from tomorrow. Those who are sponsoring exhibition are meeting with a very zood response to the apeal for prizes for the various classes in which competitions are to be held, and it is expected that a very sub- stantial prize list will be ready be- fore the exhibitio,, opens. The ex- hibition is to be open both after- noon and evening, and the public will be admitted as soon as the judges have completed their task of selecting the prize-winning displays. RE-DECORATING JUNIOR LIBRARY Children's Section of Lib- rary Is Closed For Next Week In preparation for the autumn days that are not very fary away, the. Junior Department of the Osh- awa Public Library is being rede- corated, With walls and woodwork of cream and green, bright orange furniture and with a fire burning cheerily in the grate it should be a jolly place for the children, on af- ternoons after school when the days begin to get shorter, and cooler, Miss Lucy Northcott, the new li- brarian of the Junior department has several new features for the boys and girls in the way of story hours and reading programmes.

They were brought here from Toronto in special cars as part of a day of sight-seeing and entertainment provided for them prior to their departure for De- troit, where the international contest judging is to take place in conjunction with the annual convention of the Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild. While in Osh- awa, they were entertained at luncheon, and had a very enjoy- able visit to the city. On Saturday evening, the high light of their day's entertainment was reached at the annnal dirner of the Fisher Body Craftsman's Guild, at which they were honor- ed guests. There they heard words bestowed on captains education of highest praise their craftsmanship, by of industry, deans of and editors of the press. "Two years ago I travelled to Detroit to be amazed at the craftsmanship displayed by Am- erican boys in the Fisher Body Guild competition," said R. S. McLaughlin, president of General Motors in Canada, and president of the Camadian Section of the Guild. "*At that time I felt certain that Canadian boys could equal that splendid display of models, and the Canadian Section was in- augurated. The result--this won- derful exhibition of the skill of young Canadian manhood of which we can be justly proud." "We can nt help but feel when we see the result of the Guild competition in Canada," said the captain of industry, 'that for their painstaking efforts and skill these lads are going to make bet- (Continued on page 3) W.H. Moore M.P.

Moore, M.P., former chairman of the Canadian tariff hoard, and a recognized :uthority on trade matters, stated in an interview published in yesterday's Toronto Star, that it was difficult as ye. to see the whole picture. But on the whole, so far as the information from Ottawa re- vealed, he could not see many very vital advantages coming to Canada. "An attempt to rssess Can- ada's respective losses and gains as a result of the August ba:- gaining between Imperia) states men at Ottzwa is at present as futile as trying to give tle amount yielded by twenty X when one does not know what X means," said Mr. Moore, "Apparently schedule E rep resents what Canada is to give: we are told it cont:ins 220 items | upon which new or increased margins of preference are to be given by Canada to the Unitad Kingdom, but we are not toid what the commodities are, save in a vrgue way that thex are of fron, cotton, wool, leather ani pretty mearly everything el:e trade And that may mean much or 1i*- tle.
