HOLDEN T00 ILL T0 APPEAR IN COURT On the representation of A. J. F. Sullivan, of Stayner, that his client was seriously ill, William J. Holde:-., ex-mayor of Collingwood, who \\*as 6;,` Judge Holmes given until Hay 31's`: to make restitution of monies alleges to have been 1'1'audule'ntly acquired by him in a real estate deal, was 211- lowed another respite Tuesday 1`n.orn iug, when the (lay of reckoning was set fo1`war(l to June 29th.

Simpson, of Collingwvood, who has been attending Holden, in which he stated that the accused was conned to his bed at his Batteau home with phletbitis, Mr. Sullivan made a strong appeal for leniency. He said his client had spent two weeks in the hospital, during which time his condi- tion had been so serious they had al- most feared for his life. While he had returned to his home, it was still necessary to have a trained nurse for him. This was the reason given for the fact that no attempt had been made at restitution on Holden's part.` A letter from Mrs. Holden practically contained the same statement. l (`vnuv-n AH>ru-nnxr TI` [1 L`unv..~ T. f` cum;-aineu me same statement. Crown Attorney F. G. Evans, K.C., pointed out that the necessary papers - had been sent to Holden for assigning ` the Baptist Church niortagage to its original 0\vne1', Walter Near, who gave it to Holden as part payment on land to which Holden could not give a clear title. Mr. Evans said nothing had been done in this respect, and it would be decidedly expensive and difficult for Near to recover the mortgage, valued at $800, in the . event of Holden s death. `.\/Tv Qnllh-nu anizl LI,.l,l,\v. 4: ! at Mr. Sullivan said Holden did not appear to know what was e.\'pe_cted of him when the papers were 1*c- ] 1 I uvuxu.

Holmes remarked that a man who`_ was clever enough to conduct his;1 own case, as he had done at the re-; cent trial, was clever enough to kno`.v'1| what assigning a mortgage meant. t With `rnfhc-1' mnrn r-nn . nan. zxsslgulxlg 21 nlortgage meant.

I ln giving his story of the arrest of ; Bailey, Thompson told the court that he stopped a large Peerless sedan on highway No. 11 preceding south this side of Stroud about 10.25 on tl1e ` night of May 24th. It was burning a spotlight on the left-hand side 01 the windshield contrary to regula tions. He asked the driver to dis- connect the light, explaining that such lights were unlawful. While noting he driver s name and address to have a record of the warning, the officer said he also took the license number, and discovered that the plates were fastened onto the big cm with wire. The rear light was also out. Questioned about the license plates, Bailey, who was driving, said he had borrowed the car and had put the plates on it himself. License Plates Stolen I asked him to wait until I could check the ownership of the license plates, continued Thompson. I phoned the department from Stroud and was told that the plates had been cancelled. The license B-3'54" was originally issued to Charles N. Powers, Walmer Road, Toronto, for an Essex coach, which had been stolen. I asked the accused if he knew anything about where the li cense plates came from, but he said he did not. I then got in touch with Chief Inspector J. A.__g1_`ant\ at T0- ronto and was told to hold the ac cused. Placing him under arrest, I brought him to Barrie.

ZHJUIL 7 This employment service is main.- tained by the g;o\'ernn1e:1Ls. In this province the Ontario nG.overnment Is responsible for two-thirds of t.he cost and the Federal Government one- third. Its main function is to bring together the person looking for 21 job and the person looking for help. It also provides a means of checking up on the number out of employment. This employment service was started during` war time, when it was diffi- cult to find help for munition plants land for various industries. It is very different now, when jobs are hard to get. It is pathetic to see so many who are unable to nd employment through no fault of their own. The situation has become serious. and none are exempt from the po.~:sibility of being among the jobless. The governments have been doing every- thng possble to help, but there should be more individual and com- munity action in helping: to relieve the situation.

In all, 25,000 from the province had been z1.<. All these had been passed by the em- ployment service. The speaker said he hzul visited many of the camps and much of the critcism from some of the men was not justified. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. nu_:, rd, , . 7. . . ...

Simpson, )l.P., is convinced that the public need not be exercised over what may be the outcome oi government controlled radio. in dis- cussing the subject with The Advance, the member for North Simcoe said very little opposition had been raised to :_.','0ve1`nn1ent control, except by the Ontario Radio League and the local stzltiulis.
