| PAGE TWU 'THE USHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1928 'Whi Much Routine Business is Transacted By Council -- Goes Into Committee of the Whole on Finance Re- port " hig od Aug. 21.--The case of Mrs. Barron, of Whitby, who for a muiiber of years has lived at the axjéhse of the town with her § dren the eldest of which is 13 years and the youngest a baby just fecently born, again occupied the tion of the Whitby gouncil night. The Council, through adoption of the Town Relief mittee's report, made an issue the matter and in a motion pro- by Councillor Ofmiston, de- et to commit Mrs. Barron to House of Refuge for a year, 1 th the Widefstanding that she he _feleased in a shorter perio 'sanctioned by His Worship, The aon in the meantime will be gommitted temporarily to the C.A. Shelter if no other arrangements be made. Action will be taken y the Relief Committee to make arfangements for the ultimate dis- posal of the case. i F. M, Burns sent in a communi- cation to the Council requesting an ' gXtension of the water and sewer connections to the lot Where he ntend to huild a house, Reeve «Jackson contended that the matter of sewer and water extensions be Yeft in the hands of the Public Utilities Commission. Mayor Bate- man upheld Reeve Jackson in his contention. The matter was refer- . wed to thé Public Utilities Commis- gion with the understanding that that body make application again to the Council when an expenditure of money is needed. The Council went into commitiee pt the whole to discuss the finan- cial report. It was learned through the re- port of the government inspector who after having tested the town weigh scales, found them incorrect and closed them up. The committee « Pink Capsules Indigestion tby Council Opposes Advertising Booklet Plan met and decided to purchase a new set of auto truck scales, hav- ing a ten ton capacity. The sum of $750 was forwarded as a figure for the purchase of these scales. Fifty dollars was to be allowed on the old scales. In reference to a special book- let in the forme of a four a] sheet composed of material relat- ing to Whitby and the location of Camp Borden recently printed if the Oshawa Times, the Counchi ué« cided that it would not take any further consideration in this mat- ter. Councillor Ormiston stated that he was not in favor of .the expenditure and was borne out in his assertion by the mayor. On the other hand, Reeve Jackson, al- though not advocating the matter, took a very fait outlook on it, and favored the special committee be instructed to act in a manner con- current with the views of the Councillors. Counelllor Threadgold pointed out that commercial tra- vellers, if deciding to settle out of the larger cities knew wher? they were going and that further ad- vertising would not change their plans. : Deputy Reeve Underwood great: ly favored a larger advertising scheme. It was moved that no ac tion be taken on the matter. Coun- elllor Underwood moved an amend- ment that the matter of advertising be referred to committee. Both the motion and the amendment were thrown out. The next meeting of the Council will be held on the Tueaddy, Sep: tember 4, A by-law to deed over the land dt the foot of Brock street to the Dominion Government so that the latter might make perma- nent repairs to the dock, which is being undermined by the water, was validated.

T0 TAKE PART IN WARRIORS' DAY Will Parade a Full Company This Year At The C.NE. (Contributed) The writer was asked this ques- tion by one who was not like him- self, one of the (so-called) "old Brigade". We were speaking of the coming Warriors' Day parade at the Canadian National Exhibi- tion. Continuing he said: we 'will soon have a world peace pact with our outlawed and just a memory of bye gone days." "And there," said I, "ls why we should have these parades if for nothing else". How many children attending school to- day--aven Collegiate--will ever realize the anxiety that existed in almost every home during the 1914-18 period? Armistice celebrations dare not held to glorify war but to give thanks for peace, and the Wat- riors' Day parade is an occasion once a year when the returnéd men of Ontario gather together to re- new their vows and express their desire for peace--they know too well what war is. The march through the Princes Gate last year was not a celebration of GOING to war--it was a triumphant RE- TURN, and an occasion to meet again our Comrade of the Great- ar-BEdward Prince of Wales and his brother George, when peace waa again on this earth. Surely we desire to remember the past, that the future may be taken care of, and that our own sons may not have reason to face the horrors that many of ug did in the years gone by, Thete is a natural pride in the appearance of Oshawa veterans on parade --they to a man admire their Marshall and respond to his orders without thought as to whether they should "jump around jusut because a veteran like them- selves tells them to." There is, and always will be a desire for the veterans of the Great War to meet and talk over the days gone hy, and what more fit occasion than at the World's greatest an- nual Exhibition, The loé¢al Legion Post are now out to parade a full company this y~ar to be led by Drum Major R. 8, M., W. Cooper and his Post 43 Pipe Band, the only actual Legion Pipe Band in Canada.

It owes its origin In part to the press ent nation-wide interest in reviving early American traditions and for- gotten phases of Indian lore, = movement to which the Girl Scouts have contributued in a number of ways. The Indian garden is, perhaps, the most notable of the many une usual types of gardens which the Girl Scouts have successfululy cul- tivated, Among others with which they have succeeded are tree gare dens, herb gardens, wild flower sanctuaries, and birds' kitchen gar dens. The work with the Indian garden for this first summer is, of course in the nature of an experi. ment. The garden will be a reminder to some extent of how present Am- ericans are indebted to the Indian for modern knowledge of the most varied and useful vegetable gar- dens. Corn or Indian maize, was his gift to the early settlers, The Indian was also responsible for many of the common vegetablés-- tomatoes, squash, pumpkins and many others. The Girl Scouts have laid out their garden In accordance with Indian ideas and planted in it all the simple vegetables which were known to the Indians. They are including another favorite product of the Red Man, a plant known as Indian gourd, from which the In- dian made his dishes. The girls hope to utilize this plant in the same manner, and expect to offer real Indian style dishes for sale. In some cases the Girl Scouts have adopted full-grown forests for their gardens. In these they clear away underbrush and tend the "gardens" as carefully as some people watch over their little flow- er beds. Many thousands of fine healthy trees owe their lives to the care and protection of the Girl Scouts. © Women Make Study of the Government « New York, Aug. 20.--In her scarlet robe of office and wearing about her shoulders a gorgeous golden chain that her predecessors have worn since the sixteenth century, there came to New York today the 1,237th Mayor of the Town and County of t on, England, her Worship Lucia Marion Foster-Welch, widow of a physician. To Quarantine she came on the i n, which flew at its mast- head her own flag, the fag of the Mayors of Southampton, decorated with emblems put there during the Wars of the Roses--white roses for Lancaster, red roses for York. As she proceeded up the harbor aboard the city's yacht Macom, an escort of aeroplanes hummed over- head, and all the small navy craft dipped their flags. OSHAWA LEGION |Border Liquor Export Revenue $1,000,000 Monthly $300,000 Flowed Over Detroit River During April, May and June -- Case Continues at Wind. sor Windsor, Aug. 20.--Liquor valu- ed at more than $300,000 flowed over the Detroit River during Ap- il, May and Juse of this year from the docks of the Erie Transit Cempany; which concern was ac cused in Windsor Police Court to- day of being in illegal possession of liquor, This was disclosed shortly before court adjourned this evening, with Walter Hardie, Secretary-Treasurer of the accused company, in the wit- fess box. Books placed before Hardie by Gordon N. Shaver, K.C., Crown prosecutor, showed the com- 3100 had received approximately 100,000 a month during each of the three months ending June 30 from disposition of liquor, $1,000,000 Per Month After court closed, Government authorities placed the total month- ly revenue of exporters along the Hssex County waterfront at $1,- 000,000 a month, Hardie went on the stand at 4 o'clock, after Inspéctor Arthur Liquor Valued at Overly ers p seized, in that the warrant um- der which they were taken away accused the company with con- spiracy to violate Section 90 eof the Liquor Control Act. "There is no such offense," Mr. Springsteee nargued, "and all the Inspectors could legally do was to inspect the books and not carry them away." Magistrate Brodie ruled against defense counsel, saying it was not his business to say if the books were legally seized. For Another Court "The books are before me, and it may be for another court to say | f the seizure was in accordance with the law," Magistrate Brodie! stated, Mr. Shaver sald he proposed to; show by the books of the Erie Transit Company that the business nterlocked with Low, Leon & Burns, and that the 1,000 cases of whiskey in question had been pur- chased by the last-named firm, who in turn, disposed of the liquor to other persons, { Qpposing counsel argued and sparred for more than an hour be- fore any of the books were plac ed before the witnesses. Mr. Shaver disclosed by the evidence of Inspector that books of the Erie Company, Low, Leon & Burns, the Carling agency and the Sea- gram agency were all found in the building leased by the Erie Com- Moss, head of the Ontario Police at the border, and H., D. Ashmore of Clarkson & Company, auditors, had testified. Mr. S8hver, in an attempt to prove that the business of the Erie Transit Company and that conducted by Low, Leon & Burns, who are directors of the company, interlocked, asked Hardie to trace the shipment of 1,000 cases of Scotch whiskey from Halifax to Whndsor, Cost $15 a Cate It was disclosed by Hardie's evidence that the whiskey cost the Erie company approximately $15 a case lald down at Halifax, less the duty. This, Hardie explained, amounted to more than $19,000 on # purchase price of about $9,000, making the total cost per case to the Erie company $32, delivered at Windsor. Defense Counsel Prote:ts From the time that Inspector Moss took the stand, following the morning adjournment, until Har- die stepped from the box shortly after 5.80 o'clock, attempts of Mr. Shaver to introduce books, corres- pondence and other documents seized hy police at the offices of the Erie company were met with numerous and vigorous objections by defense counsel, The objections of Mr. Springs- teen were suported by E. C. Aw- rey, counsel for the Border Cities clared the Crown had no right to put in hooks of the Border Cities Company in the case against the Erie Company. In a loud voice Mr. Awrey asked Magistrate Bro- die to rule against introduction of his client's documents. But Books Go In Arguing that Mr, Awrey had no status before the court while the hearing of the charge against the Erie Company was proceeding, Mr. Shaver referred to Mr, Awrev as "The gentleman with the loud voice," and the court allowed the books in question to be put in, subject to the objection, When the afternoon session opened with Inspector Moss on the witness stand, Mr. Springsteen m- mediately registered an objection to introduction of books seized at the Erie Company's office hy In- spector Mogs. Mr. Springsteen de- clared the books had heen illegal- Rexall Store News Your Nose Knows And also shows whether you are using the proper color, qual- ity and odor of Face Powder.

Crown counsel went to show that several cases of whiskey which, he suggested, had been part of the shipment to Low, Leon & Burns, were seized at another border dock. This in itself, he argued, was an offense against the Liquor Control Act, in that sale within the Province had been shown, Inspector Moss Questioned Cross-examined by Mr, Springs- teen, Inspector Moss sald he had been station at the border since June 23. He said he knew that the socalled export business was carried on at the waterfront, and that he was aware that liquor had been moved from one dock to an- other, "I know that liquor was con- tinually going away from the docks," the Inspector sald to de- fense counsel, "But I don't know if t was all exported. Some of the trucks used for moving liquor be- tween the docks I seized, some of these were protected by xport pap- ers, but others were not, When Inspector Moss was asked by Mr. Springsteen if he had the warrant and information in the case against the Erie Company, Mr. Shaver declared it was not time to discuss the warrant, "I am instructed," Mr, Springs- teen said, "that endeavors were unsuccessfully made in Toronto to see the warrant and information." Magistrate Brodie--I don't be- liev 1 have anything to do with how the book were obtained, They are here, It was explained to the court Magistrate's View Magistrate Brodie then said he could not see how introduction of the warrant and information could affect the Crown's case, "It. may give you ground for some' other action, Mr, Springs- teen," the Magistrate said. "Jf you want to conduct examination for discovery, I cannot allow you to do that, It is immaterial to the court whether procuring books was illegal or not." Mr. Shaver----Why should we be wrangling about something that may result in court action against the officer? He was doing his duty, and 1 shall do everything to protect him, Inspector Moss continued his evidence by saying he had been in- structed that Erie Company had no permit to keep liquor at the Windsor warehouse, At this point Hardie took the stand. He sald he lived at 44 On- eida Court, Walkerville, and that he had been in Canada four years, and in the employ of the Erie Company since March, 1927. He admitted he kept hooks for Low, Leon & Burns, the Carling agency and the Seagram, as well ag for the Erie Company. Ths admis- sfon, Mr, Shaver contended, was proof that the business of these different firms interlocked, Improper Methods Mr. Springsteen aecused Mr. Shaver of pursuing improper meth- ods in questioning Hardie, who, he pointed out, was a Crown witness and ought not to be subjected to what appeared to be cross-exam- ination by Crown Counsel, Hardie continued, and went through the Erie Company stock- Mr. Shaver. He stated that James H. Clark, Armand Racine, Norman Spenceer, Helen McTague, Gladys Thrasher and John A, Kennedy were the provisional directors, each holding one share of stock. The other shareholders and offi- cers of the company are Charles Burns, 62 shares; Marco Leon, 60 shares; Harry Low, 60 shares, and' Saw Low, 1 share. Defense counsel admitted the Erie Company had been in posses- sion of liquor, but only as com- mon carriers. The session ended with Mr. Shaver asking the Court to warn Hardie not to dischss the nature of his evidence with anybody, In Dual Position "I don't see any reason why Hardie should not discuss the case with his employers end my- eelf," Mr. Springteen said. The Court, however, warned Hardie to comply with Mr. Shaver's request. "The witness is practically in a dual position," Magistrate Brodie remarked. "But he had better be || exporters -- Seuawidn, previous to the Erie trial being started, Mr. Awrey demanded that specific chafges be laid against his cli- ents, numbering 20. Mr. Awrey and Crown counsel engaged in a wordy battle several minutes, and the engagement ended with Mr. Awrey threatening to take his com- plaint to the Supreme Court. C. PD. Brown, an Amberstburg exporter, who was called in Sand- wich Court, did not appear, and Magistrate Brodie issued a bench warrant. It was explained that the court process im the ease against Brown had been served om his brother. Magistrate Brodie held this to be good service. Twenty cases were called at Sandwich. These were all ad- journed until Thursday and Fri- day, and eight others, due to pe heard at Ford City, were laid over until the end of the week also. In the actio nof certain liquor exporters of moving their stocks from Windsor to Vancouver, Sir Henry Drayton yesterday saw evi- dence of the experters fulfilling the agreement made with the On- tario Liquor Board, whereby un- der a bond of $700,000 they were to legally clear from the Prov- ince all liquor seized in the recent border raids within a period of 20 days. | The liquor consfiscated in the border raids were returned to the with the exception of sufficint to constitute evidence in the succeéding legal investigation nstituted by the Province. The Yetaile of supervising the comsfis- ated liquor would prove costly, it .was pointed out by the board at the time the $700,000 bond was accepted from the exporters, STEEL CABLE SNAPS, STRIKES DEATH BLOW Port Colborne, Aug. 20.--Jack L. Symonds, superintendent of the Northern Construction Company, was instantly killed at 8.30 to- night when a large derrick broke and struck him across the chest. Symonds watching the derrick pull a 105-ton engine, was stand- ing about halfway between the two and within a few feet of the ca. ble when it snapped under the heavy strain. The cable did what engineers called a "snake dance" and struck Symonds a terrible blow aerss the chest, Hoe was In- stantly killed. He was instantly killed. The dead man had been employed by the Norhtern Con. struction Company on Section 8 of the Welland Ship Canal eon- struction since the start of opera- tions. He was very popular with btoh his employers and the men under him. His only son who was employed as engineer on the derrick, had just quit work half an hour hefore the accident hap- pened.
