FIRST ATTEMPT AT AIR MAIL SERVICE (By Canadian Press) Quebec, Sept. 9.--Canada's first trans-Atlantic air mall attempt broke down this morning when the Vannessa biplane piloted by Major *fudhope of the Reyal Canadian Air Force was unable to leave Rimouski with mail off the inward bound steamer Empress of France this morning. Some trouble, the exact nature of which is nog known here as yet developed with the biplane and Major Tudhope was still swying to fix the plane before leavimg for Montreal. While this could not be ascertain- ed at the Quebec post office. it was believed by officials there that five hundred pounds of letter mail, which the biplane was to take to Montreal, was left at Rimouski by the Empress of France.

No proposal, however, was made to the Council that it ask the Li- quor Control Board to open such a store here, 'either by Mr. Stacev or anyone else. The aldermen were not required to do anything but listen to Mr. Stacey's announce- ment of his candicacy and general remarks which at times inclined to bitterness, shadowing to a certain extent the happy feeling of the evening. Myr. Stacey's bitterness included, nuite cmphatically, The Oshawa Daily Times though he seemed to have difficulty in remembering its title. He was, however, quite thor- oughly familiar with news stories appearing on Wednesday and Thurs- day regarding a probable effort tn have the aldermen vote on the li- quor store question. He regarded those news stories as "attacks on the Council," and his generous, even spirited, defence of 1927 al- dermen was accepted with the grati- tude of men who too rarely, per- haps, find themselves championed by anyone. His speech. he declared was made a8 representing the Government of Ontario--though he added the rider that he was acting on his own ini- tiative in the matter which relieves evervone of the responsibility with- out lessening the dignity of such a statement.
