He was brought to Barrie and on Monday afternoon was convicted by Magistrate Jeffs and sentenced to a fine of $500 or six months in jail, with an additional six months im- prisonment, it `being his second of- fence. In addition, a charge of il- legal possession, which has been hang-' ing over him for a year and a half, was brought forward, to which he pleaded guilty and was ned $50 or three months, the sen-tences to run . concurrently.

They met `Lowe in front of Wm. At- kinson s farm. Lowe was driving a buggy and had pulled in to the gate- way to allow them to pass. They stopped and asked him if he was Sank . Lowe and on his reply in the affirmative they got out of the car and went over to the buggy, telling him that they were police officers. The witness saw a bag in the buggy .beside Lowe and picking it up he heard bottles rattle. Lowe then whipped the horse up and Chief Stewart got tangled up between the wheels. The Witness held the horse |and Lowe continued to resist so that ithey had at handcu? him. He also kickdd the bag and succeeded in breaking two of -the bottles. Lowe and the remaining seven bottles were .brought to Barrie. The officers test- ed the contents of one bottle and the witness stated that it was intoxicat- ing liquor. Ann 1 man); rm -1 Constable Kelly stated further that on the way to Barrie Lowe asked ,them to let him go and offered them $100 each if they would. The offer was later increased to $200 each. He told them that there was another charge against him and it would go hard with him. He said that Con- stable Webb of Bradford had caught him with liquor in his car a year and a half ago, but that he had got away and there was a warrant out for him - l1L_'_. \(`|L_-_--_.L ._-__._L._..-A._.1 LL- -.- CU ULllJC1yv Lowe, who wastwithout counsel, asked both officers if they had seen two cars in the vicinity and both re- `plied that there had been two cars about a mile from where they met the accused. 1 __ _l_.E-._-_ `I _--__ .__--__- J.`L_L L- `L_.`I auu DIICIC WGD G VVGLLGIII; uuu LU}. lllllln Chief `Stewart corroborated the ev- idence given by Constable Kelly both `as to the arrest and as to the attempt- !ed bribery.

Peter Bryce of Toronto, the chairman of the Commission. Mr. Bryce review- ed the history of mothers` allowances in Ontario since the inauguration of the Commission six ,. years ago and ;told just how the money is being spent. This was of particular \inter- est since fifty per cent. of the money paid in allowances comes `directly from the counties. ` a.a.vnnn nanny uvv-onv-v _ I How Started Bryce stated that following the Z [ue epidemic in 1918, when it was noticeable that many comparatively young men died, the auestion of their wives and young ' children became very pronounced. A group of people interested in the question got togeth- 5 er and studied the question of mo-- thers allowances. `There were estat- utes dealing with the problem in the ' four western provinces and in the United States.` After studying the matter for a year, a report was sub- mitted to thegovernment of Sir Wm. Hearst, who. was then head, and the government appointed investigators who recommended passing such a measure. In the meantime Sir Wm.
