(CP) -- An heroic attempt by a 10-year-old boy to save his mother and sister re- sulted in a triple drowning Wed- nesday night in nearby Cameron lake. Quadville is some 90 miles southwest of Ottawa. The victims were: Mrs. Lila Yuke, 36, her 13-year-old daughter, Barbara, and 10-year-old son, Ivan. Eyewitnesses said that Barbara, while swimming, got beyond her depth. Her mother went to her rescue but got in difficulty herself. Ivan swam to their aid. For a time, he managed to keep both afloat but became exhausted and all three sank. The father, Ivan Yuke, Sr., a cripple, also tried to go to his family's aid. EARNINGS DOWN CHATHAM (CP) -- Canada and Dominion Sugar Company, Limited has announced net profits of $1, 468,113, or 98 cents a share, for the 15 months ended March 31--17-per- cent drop from the previous 12- month's figure of $1,779,337, or $1.19 a share. W. J. McGregor, president, stated that although sales were up in the fiscal period under review, earnings fell, mainly because of stiff competition from Cuban imports of refined sugars. The Canadian government recently announced restrictions on these im- ports. The company is altering its fiscal year. i" for ' service garage and b dealership.

Drew Would Not Cut Size of Services By ALAN DONNELLY ] Canadian Press Staff Writer CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) -- The | Progressive Conservative leader, | George Drew, campaigning in this | city where Canada's first Confed- | eration conference was held in 1864, | said Wednesday night there is "no! protection" against the federal | government invading the fields of provincial and municipal govern- ment. In a criticism of the govern- ment's Emergency Powers Act, Mr. Drew said there has been "a steady centralization of power in Canada which will destroy our fed- eral system if the whole trend is not reversed and reversed soon." "Here in this historic city, prin- ciples were settled which were the essential condition of Canadian servative party to restore that con | servative aprty to restore that con- stitution to its full integrity and | purpose," Mr. Drew said. | He coupled with that a promise | made here and earlier yesterday ! at Summerside, P.E.L, to expand Canada's air defences. Through efficient methods, he said, a Progressive Conservative government could do this at the same time it put into effect its promise to cut taxes by $500,000, 000 a year. He denied what he said was a "whispering campaign" telling ser- vicemen at the RCAF's Summer- side air navigation school that a Conservative government would reduce the armed forces. "Young men and women in uni- form can count on expanded ac- tivities in the air force under a Conservative government," he said here. . At Summerside, he said: "Far from reducing our armed forces, we believe that for the money we are spending we should have more effective forces." A country like Canada needed ia 'large, powerful and mobile' air force both from home defence and overseas commitments. East, West Celebrate Perry's Japan WASHINGTON -- Japan and the United States this summer plan celebrations in honor of Commo- dore Matthew C. Perry, who on July' 14, 100 years ago, led four United States Navy ships into a Japanese harbor to. end two cen- turies of Nipponese isolation. The story of Perry's expedition, which initiated a period of dazz- ling progress in the island king- dom, is told in the July issue of zine by Ferdinand Kuhn. | BANDS PLAYED the National Georgraphic Maga- While bands played and thou- sands of awed Japanese watched, Perry came ashore at Kurihama, the Emporor he delivered a rose- wood and gold box containg a let- ter. from President Millard Fill- more asking 'friendship, com- merce, a supply of coal and pro- visions, 'and protection for our shipwrecked people." Black smoke from the stacks of Perry's steam paddle-wheelers ter- rified the simple Japanese villager Once, when a ship blew a whistle, the entire crew of one Japanese guard boat dived overboard. But no serious misunderstandings a- rose, and Perry's initial mission was successfully accomplished. The Commodore made a second visit in February, 1854, with a larger fleet and many gifts for the Emperor. Included were a tel- egraph instrument, a miniature railroad with rolling stock and 370 feet of track, firearms and books.
