Stewart, Minister of Public Works, Reminding Him of Promise Made When He Visited Whitby Last Fall and Inspected Harbor--Coun- cil Inforthed That There Is No Money in the Estimates for Whitby Harbor The Town Council at a special meeting held on Tuesday afternoon instructed His Worship Mayor Bow- man and Town Clerk John R. Frost to wire the minister of public works, the Hon. H. A. Stewart, at the Par- liament Buildings, Ottawa, calling attention to the necessary repairs at the Whitby harbor, including dredging and the completion of 500 feet of the breakwater, as brought to the minister's attention during a visit to Whitby last fall, The ber of Commerce president, I. H. M. Irwin, was also requested and to sign the telegram, while the attention of Dr. T. E. Kaiser, of Oshawa, will also be drawn to it. The matter was brought before the Council by Reeve Albert W, Jackson, who reported that a local contractor who had visited Ottawa last week seeking further work on the local breakwater had ascertain- ed that there was no Honey in the estimates to be tabled shortly in the House of Commons for the Whitby harbor. The reason he got was that no request had been received by the Department. Reeve Jackson thought this was strange, in view of the minister's visit last fall, and his frank admission that the improve- ments suggested here were urgently lt cal CAL required. Further, the minister had promised to take the matter up wi his department. The reeve stated that at present the water in the har- bor is only eight feet deep making it impossible for any vessels to come in. The desirability of completing the breakwater when the contract. ors' equipment is on the ground, and at a time when labor and materials are cheap, was also stressed. It was pointed out by Coun. Or- miston that according to Ottawa despatches, the main estimates of the government would be down next week, in which event urgent action on Whitby's part was necessary, It will 'be recalled that last No- vember, in company with Dr. Kai- ser and town officials, the Honor- able Mr. Stewart visited Whitby harbor and was much impressed with the -representations made to him for improvements. At that time, in addition to dredging and break- water repairs, it was suggested that the marsh lands at the harbor might be filled in for industrial sites. Reeve Jackson mentioned that Oshawa was sending a delegation to Ottawa in connection with harbor improvements in that city. IN THE CHURCHES OF WHITBY St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church ~-Rev.

LOACH WILL PROBATED His Honor, Judge Thompson has delivered a judgment granting let- ters probate in the will of the late William Lodch, farmer, of Whitby Township, who died several months ago as the result of burns. Some weeks ago Thomas Samuel Loach, father of the deceased and a brother, John Loach, brought action for a declaration that the will in question was not properly executed, that deceased was no of proper mental capacity when will was drawn up at his request, and also on the ground of alleged undue influence. The father and son were left out of the will, while other 'members of the family were included. ¥. H. M. Irwin, of Whitby, act- fng for the xeecutors of the estate of the late William H. Loach, sall- ed as chief witness, Dr. Charles F. McGillivray, well known Whitby physician, who testified that he at- tended the deceased while he was in the hospital and at his request he drew up a will which was read to him and to which he gave ns- sent, stating that it was just what he wanted. As the right hand of the deceased was badly burned, he held the pen in his hand, made his mark after his name in the presence of witnesses, Dr. MeGil- livray testified that nothing was sald to deceased to influence him one way or the other, and that he simply carried out his request, which when put in writing and read to him, met with his approve al. Dr. McGillivray testified fur~ deceased was perfectly clear, and that he fully understood every thing that was said to him, Mrs. Gladys Johnston, nurse ate tending Loach, at the Oshawa Hos- pital, corroborated the evidence of Dr. McGillivray in detail. For the plaintiffs, Donald Rud- dy of Whitby, called several wit« nesses, after which arguments were heard by Judge Thompson and judgment reserved. Judge Thompson dismissed the action, findihg that there was no undue influence as alleged. His Honor also findg that the plain. tiffs, Thomas and John Loach were justified in protesting the will, in- asmuch as there were certain er- rors in its preparation. The plain- tiffs are allowed their costs out of the estate, em ------ HOLY TRINITY YOUNG PEOPLES oLUB It has been arranged for the members of the club to inspect the plant of the Oriental textiles Co., tonight, The members are asked to meet outside the plant, on the cor- ner of Athol and Charles Streets at 7.66 prompt.

Bell Telephone Company by the Town Council and Chamber of Commerce for a more 'modern telephone service, it 'is interesting to note that the town of Bowman- ville, which was slated for the "flash" system at that time, will {have to wait for gome time to come, Mr. W. P, Harris, assistant divi- gional manager, and Mr, D, Mar- tin, traffic superintendent of the Bell Telephone Co., Toronto, were in Bowmanville last week inter- viewing prominent merchants re- garding the local telephone system th [and in direct answer to a request of the Bowmanville Men's Aseocla- tion.that a more modern telephone system be installed here. Citizens were given to understand by these men that according to present plans, a common battery system is scheduled for this town in 1933 and to be completed by 1034, The company is including Bowmanville and Peterboro in the only surveys being made in this division this year. Whitby's request for a modern telephone system was made when the company moved into the hand- some new exchange building on Drock street south. At that time Manager Black, of Oshawa, made it plain that Whitby, on account of the amount of business being done here, could not hope for a better system than is in use at present. He stated, however, that tia aquip- ment in use was new and designed to give Whitby a first class service, It was intimated, further, that Bowmanville was to have a new system. It might be noted that the Com- pany is giving good service in Whitby, but nevertheless the local civic bodies will continue to press for the latest in telephone equip- ment, ---- 8 vt LEGION PLANS FOR MEMBERSHIP DRIVE NEARLY COMPLETED (Continued from page 1) vention secretary reported' that ex- cellent progress was being made with the sale of Convention Club membership tickets, which are now being sold, and in connection with which a Chevrolet coach and four other valuable prizes are being given away.

An agreement has been reached avhereby the town will continue to serve the country residents for at least seven years at service rates 60 per cent, of these which would have gone into effect hadsthe On- tarlo. Hydro-Electric Commission taken over the lines as suggested by the Orillia Commission. This will mean a saving of about $4,000 a year to the rural consumers. To a great extent, the agreement is a triumph for the consumers, whose chief objection was that of being turned over to the hydro, which would have resulted in jin- creases in rate, PLOT DISCOVERED Rome, Mar' 27---Box of dynamite and several bombs were reported by the police today to have been found in the rooms of two Italians, arrested on March 4, in connection with al leged plot to assassinate Premier Mussolini, FIRE DESTROYS TORONTO CHURCH St. Augustine's Anglican Church Fell Prey to Flames Last Night Toronto, Mar. 27.--8t, Augus- tine"s Anglican Church, for more than 40 years a landmark at Par- llament and Spruce Streets, was destroyed last night by a fire that burned fiercely for two hours and defied firemen to do more than prevent it from spreading to neighboring buildings. First noticed bursting through the roof of the chancel, the flames rapidly ate their way to both ends of the church, forcing the rector, Rev, J. T. Robbins, and his wife from the rectory 'at 6 Spruce street, when the roof caught fire. Little was saved from the ruins of the old church, Among the memorial plaques brought out af- ter the fire had been extinguished was that to Canon F. J. Plummer, the late rector, who reopened the church for worship 28 years ago. The flames leaping from the high-peaked roof of the edifice at- tracted thousands of spectators who pressed on the police lines for Rev. Mr. Robbins passed tho | e¢hurelr on his way home barely five minutes before the alarm wa: put in and saw nothing amiss, PLAN WORLD BANK 70 FINANCE TRADE to U.S. --Soviet Mar- kets Chief Object € London, 'March 27.~--The Daily Mall says Montagu Norman, gover- nor of the Bank of England, who is now on his way to the United States, is going to New York in connection with a proposal for es- tablishment of an {international bank to finance trade with lew markets, primafily with Soviet ussia, The British Government has been negotiating with Moscow in connection with the undertaking, the newspaper sald, and apparent ly the Soviet bank has been invited to participate. | Rt.

LABOR MINISTRY GIVEN A RESPITE Conservative Vote of Cen- sure Is Postponed Until April 14 London, March 27.--The shell- torn trenches of the Labor Gov- ernment are safe--safe until after Kanter, They have, up to now, survived stotm by the shock tropps of the Conservatives, sniping by minority Liberals, and the harassing gun-at- aim gestures of the Maxton and the Mosley groups. "It was a case of 'Night or Blu- cher" and nght in the shape of a respite--came. Yesterday Prime Minister Mac. Donald and Rt. Hon. Stanley Bald- win agreed to defer the approach- ing debate on the unemployment vote of censure which the Conser- vatives will move, until after Mar- lament re-convenes on' April 14 80 Mr. MacDonald will not see Lossiemouth, his Scottish birth- place this Easter, but will be busy trying to arrange to effect a breach in tho ranks of the would-be at- tackers. And Rt. Hon. David Lloyd George, Liberal leader, told the Liberal parliamentary candidates that the Parliamentary party by 33 votes to 17, had decided to wale until the Government had repliea to the Conservative debaters bheo- fore taking any stand. Mr, Lioyd (teorge asked for "a policy of co- operation instead of frustration." That the Conservatives are glad too, of the respite, was shown by Mr. Baldwin's insistence in the House of Commons that a vote next Wednesday would he too near the break-up of parliament and that there should be a deferment, When the Maxtonites, the Mos- leyites and the Simonites are sub- tracted from the Government's strength 'as it has been up to now, the result of the after-Easter di- vision will depend almost entirely on the regular Georgian Liberals or the Liberals who have followed the lead of their nominal leader. 1f they voted to the number of 38 or 36, with the Government, they would probably save the cabinet, but if a few abstained from vot ing, or cast in their lot with the Conservatives and the Simon Lib- erals, the result would be the Gov- ernment"s downfall, HEPBURN AROUSES HOUSE T0 FUROR West Elgin MP.'s Attempt to Speak Against Rules 4+ + the Cause 3 Ottawa, March 27.---Attempting in ask a question regarding the St. Lawrence Waterway, Mitchell I". Hepburn, Ontario Liberal lead- or and M.P. for West Elgin, yes- terday threw the House into a ten minutes' furious uproar, As Mr, Hepburn tried again and again to spenk, he was nssailed hy a derisive barrage of such volume that Mr. Speaker was moved to 8 sue admonitions against the noise. To the Ontario leader, who per~ glsitently attempted to quote J're- mier Bennett's Campaign speeches and newspaper articles, his honor threatened that House rules must he obeyed or he would be obliged to take other measures." Mr, Hepburn never did get to the point of his question. Cries of "sit down' and loud demands for order from the Conservatives drowned his voice time and ogain, He aroused the Government side to a pitch of fury, during which the Prime Minister sharply echoed the general command that he sit down when he remained on his feot while Mr. Speaker stood up to ad- dress him. His failure to sit down when the speaker rose was a con- travention of one of the most sac red rules of this House. CITY REGEIVES + (00D PRICE FOR DEBENTURE ISSUE (Continued from. page 1) The syndicate that bought the Oshawa debenture issue this year has handled the Oshawa bonds for the last two years. This year the money will cost the city 4.84 per cent, as compared with 5.5 per cent. last year and 5.45 per cent, in the previous year. In 1928 money cost the city 4.86 per cent., approximate- ly the same as this year. At that time a total of $326,868 was of- fered in five blocks ranging from 10 to 20 years terms, at 414 per cent, and a price of 97.66 was re- ceived. Although the town of Whitby re- ceived a slightly higher price than did Oshawa, Whitby's issue this year was on a 30-year term, and money will cost that town about the same as it will cost Oshawa, since Oshawa's issue is for much shorter term bonds. "The price received this year is very satisfactory," CHy Treasurer L. A. Blackburn said to a Times re presentative this morning. Tho Tenders The tenders received by the city were as follows: Dominion Securities Corporation J.td., and The Canadian Bank of Commerce, 101.03; Fry, Mills, Spence & Co., Ltd,, 100.792; Wood, Gundy & Co., Ltd, 100.772; Bell, Gouinlock & Co, 100.689; Gaird- ner & Company, Ltd, 100.57; Do- minfon Bank, 100.64; Royal Bank of Canada, 100.637; R.

NO POLICE COURT There was no session of the cily police court this morning. This is the second consecutive day on which the court has not had to set- tle a case. It may be that the poo- ple of the city are devoting thom- selves to the job of spring cleaning and have no time for transgress- ing against law and order. ways question over, Mr. Hepburn flnally sat down and allowed the House to proceed with other husi- ness. 'Go back to your little par- ty," came a derisive voice from the Conservative side as the On- tario leader retired. The moment he rose on the om der of the day, Mr. Hepburn was greeted, by a chorus of ironic cheering from the Government benches. The Liberals applauded but the Conservatives, laughing and groaning, yelled, 'Our leader." It 1s time now, if you have not already done it, to begin to think of trees and shrubs to set out about your home to attract the birds, and also of the bird- boxes, how to place them and where, and the kind the various birds like best. Bowmanville Daily Times N% Representatives Phone No. 53 | 4 TAX INGREASE 1S + EXPECTED HERE Tax Rate May Be Increased to 52 Mills on the . Dollar Unless something untoward hap- pens the town of Bowmanville can expect an increase in taxation of approximately 'seven mills this year, according to figures available at Town Clerk's office. The re- cent judgment of Judge O'Conuor of the United Counties equalized assessment has 'placed Bowman- ville in a position where the coun- ties will demand an extra $10,000 this year. Other municipalities will also have more to pay, in- cluding Darlington Township. As $2,070 in taxation adds a mill to the rate from this source alone, a five mill addition is possible. The school rate is also expected to raise two mills owing to the two new members on the staff although there is the possibility of increased Government and Counties grants decreasing this to some extent. The Town Treasurer states that the debenture rate will be the same as last year. One dehenture was finished last year but the Public School heating system debentures will even up the figures. The general rate is also expect- ed to increase a little owing to the amount which has been expended on unemployment relief. Should the town economize to any great oxtent 1 mill or 4 mill less might take care of the year's finances. Last year the rate was 45 mills and = should have been consider- ably more but the town ysed about $8,000 of the McGill estate money to cover up the deficit. That rate which was also the same as in 1929 was the highest in the history of the town and a rolse to 52 mills this year would reach a new high level. The figures suggested by author- itive sources and as compared with the previous year are: Rate 1930 1931 Mills Mills County ..eve. 7% va 12 School «...v0vv.0 17% 10% Debenture ....... 8% 83 General sscovevee 11% 12 Total eesvsveee 48 52 ------------------------------ FAMOUS NOVELIST AT DEATH'S DOOR London, March 27.--Arnold Ben- nett, whose books are known throughout the English-speaking world, was near death today of ty- phoid fever.
