NW late new Montreal Gazette Names "Master Spy" MONTREAL--The Russian "master spy" for whom The Montreal Gazette said Fred Rose and a present member of bthe federal cabinet acted in orde® to obtain for him a Can- adian passport and citizenship Brandis by the paper in a newspage story. . + The passport and Canadian nationalization papers, ob- tained Sept. 15, 1936 were both based on false declarations, the story said. The cabinet minister in his attestation papers declared that he had known the spy for five years. as a resident of Canada and that he was a respectable person, the story con- tinued. He obviously could not have so known Brandis since the latter had been in this country for little more than two weeks. _ The Gazetfe said Brandis received a British passport in October, 1936, and left for England where he began his "nef- arious activities" which subsequently included an attempt to sabotage Woolwich arsenal in 1938. He was later unmasked and jailed. The story said Brandis had formerly been known in New York as Steinberg. ' * Meanwhile in Ottawa last Laurent said he had no comment to make on. the newspaper story.

Lightbourn, substitut- ing for Magistrate F. S. Ebbs, in the case of James Frederick Noakes, Toronto, charged with three viola- tions of the Ontario. Securities Act 3 which accused pleaded not gull- y. Specifically, the charges read that, first, Noakes guaranteed to refund to Mrs. Minnie Isobel Mc- Crum, .167 Mill Street, the purchase price of 300 shares of Ordala Mines, Limited, stock at 40c per share as an inducement for her to purchase same; secondly,'a similar guarantee involving a block of 200 shares of the same stock, and third, that he likewise guaranteed 1,000 shares of Ordala stock to W. D. Arnold, 166 "College Avenue, Mrs, MeCrum, her husband, Sam- uel MoCrum, and Arnold all agreed. in their testimony that Noakes in May, 1945, told them the stock was "not speculative. now, but an in- vestment." 'They said he assured them "you cannot lose and if you are not satisfied I will give you your money back with bank inger- est" : . Evidence revealed the alleged transactions took place in they Mc- .

Painted Rosy Picture Neither Mr. nor Mrs. McCrum could remember when cross-exam- ined by H. G. Donley, Toronto, de- fending the accused, who switched the conversation from plastics to gold mine stock. Both agreed, hows ever, that Noakes "painted such a rosy picture of the stock" that when he made the money-back guarantee the sale was consume mated, "My wife is.the hardest woman in Canada to sell speculative stoc| clared McCrum. "Noakes told it was not speculative any longer. He said they had struck gold at 20 feet that assayed $20 to the jon. He sald the stock would be listed in two or three weeks." When the stock failed to be listed by July and had dropped from 40c to 16c per share, then later to five cents, McCrum said he wrote a let-. ter to the C. M, Nash Company dee manding that the guarantee be hon- ored, The matter was then turned over to the Ontario Securities Com- mission and was investigated by Ar- thur*Verity, Arnold sald he also wrote to the company to demand his money back, "F wad alarmed when the stock dropped and when it Wasn't listed as Noakes claimed it would be."

But inside it has the most' recent teaching equipment, For the C.P.R, hdve spared no ex- pense and have use many new ideas to help put across their campaign in "safety", In Oshawa last night and today, the new C.P.R, "safety instruction car" is on a trial run throughout Ontario, explained district safety agent, G. D, Pogue of Toronto, who is travelling with the car, "With so much damgerous equip- ment around, railroading has al- ways meant paying attention to rules, We have aways given the tralinmen what instruction we could," he said, "Sometimes this instruction was in an old box car lighted with gas. The men could not always hear what was beihg sald. Now we have been able to reconvert one of the company's ten hospital cars which carried the military from the sea- board to hospitals, And we have made use of the most modern méthods of education." Instruction Anytime "We plan to stop over in all of the different yards in Ontario with this car, and get the trainmen who are there, But some of the instruc- tion is more impromptu than that. On the way from Torontd here there were 20 train men travelling through to Trenton. We brought them into our coach, used the mov- fes that we have, and gave them all a chance to ask questions." The movies are planned carefully to illustrate the day to day life of the conductor, engineer, trainman, or brakeman. One story will follow a man through all the routine of a day's work gnd will show the one uce For the use of the trainmen there are signal panels which accurately reproduce the automattic and inter locking signals which are in every=- day use on the road, If there is any difficulty to be cleared up regard- ing any situation, the screen and the signal panels can accurately re- produce such a situation, And thus the problem is solved in the inter» for of a car, Not on the road when the lives of many may be at stake, There 1s a blackboard which can be let down from thé roof of the cdr in case any problem comes up that the ingenuity of those plan- ning the courses has not foreseen, Any problem that requires more ex- planation can be dealt wth here, hildren's Movies Not only for trainmen, but edu- cation is planned for children. Stopping at many out-of-the-way schools, the car gives a holiday 'treat' to the school children, and provides them with a little sugar- coated education at the same time. Films for children stress watching at crossings, the fact that railway yards are not playgrounds. And there are always a few comic films to be mixed in, The movie equipment is up-to- date and mode! with a compete projection room, There are indexed slides, records, and films all neatly stowed in the small room. From this room the projectionist can control the lighting and public address sys- tem for the whole car, Two-way 'mike' One of the greatest blessings 'to the instructor and his voice is the loudspeaker arrangement. A car that will seat 60 is necessarily long and narrow. In a railway yard there are frequent shuntings and noises. So the instructor speaks through a microphone, and there is a micro- phone attachment between every two seats which the men can use to ask questions. Their voices travel to every one in the car by three spaced loudspeakers, And the ques- tion and answer is heard by all, At one end of the car are ample living quarters for the two instruct. ors who usually travel with the ear. They have their own gas range, their own refrigerator, sink and cupboard space. And the washing facilities provide a shower, a luxury not evident on all trainss, Many Features When the car is 'sitting out' for some time there is a propane-gas operated generator built in the car which can provide sufficient elec--| tric power. Some of the other fea- tures include a force-draft ventilate ing system with a high powered ex- haust fan which ensures a change of air every two minutes in the classroom, acoustic material which has been installed between the car's roof and the perforated: interior ceiling to ensure perfect sound effects, and special blinds which black out the car and a bank. of floodlights to provide ample illum- ination, CHARGE WITHDRAWN A charge of theft of potatoes, un der the value of $25, against Annie Collosofsky, 128 Verdun Road, was withdrawn this morning by Magis- Architect Forward ChequeTo Education Bd. For '8 Fees $17,488 Will Be Consider- ed As An Advance on 1947 Education Levy -- Strong Denunciation of Board's Business Meth- ods Voiced By Ald, Da- foe With strong denunciation of the business methods practised by the Board of Education being voiced by Ald, FP, M, Dafoe the Oshawa City Council, at its meeting in the boardroom of the Public Utilities Building last nigh,t authori «d City Treasurer Peter A, Blackburn to forward a cheque to the Board of Education in the amount of $17,488 to cover the payment of architect's fees incurred by the Board through the preparation of plans and speci- fications for the proposed Roxbor- ough Avenue Public School and alterations and extension to Ritson Public School, Council ruled this amount will be considered as an ad- vance on the 1947 levy provided the Board of Education does not pro- ceed with the erection of the pub- lic school, This action came as the result of a letter forwarded to Council by the Board following a speciial meeting of the Board on August 6 after a conference between repre- sentatives of the Department of Municipal Affairs, the City Council and the Board of Education, It had been suggested that the Board should pay the above amount, leAv- ing an overdraft in its budget at the end of 1046, As the Board can- not carry an overdraft, the assist- ance of the Council was requested, Af, up to thte Board not the Council to tweat. The amount should have been in the Board's budget, he sub- mitted, yet the board was too stupid to put it in, The Board had ignored the Council and the taxpayers of the city. "They had the OK. of the De- artment", asserted Mayor McCal~ um, "Then they should get the money from the Department", replied the alderman, Should Not Be Stubborn "A lot of what you say may be right but we cannot disregard this bill, We should not be too stub- born", interposed Ald, Ernie Cay, who went on to explain that the |2 city treasurer would not pay the bill until the Board exhausted its funds, He cited the situation which might arise should the Council turn the Board down, He foresaw the architect suing the Board -in which instance the City would hve to pay It would not be fair, he said, to run up costs, Ald, Dafoe and Ald, Clifford Har- man had previously moved that the letter from the Board be tabled un~ til a ater date, At this juncture Ald, A, G, Davis and Ald, Cay moved an amendment, which later became the motion when Ald. Dafoe and pa seconded withdrew their mo- on, Ald, Dafoe, in a heated harangue, declared: "When you think of the Board of Education, a body elected every year, spending approximately a million dollars without even cone sidering the taxpayers and their ability to pay, or let the Council know or get Council's opinion, I feel the members of the Board of | FORWARD CHEQUE (Continued on Page 6) ge OR "i « Tt was Pointed out to City Coun- cll that the $17,488 item was for architect's fees, charged by John B, Parkin of Toronto, The amount consists of $15,028 for the prepara- tion of working drawings and speci- fications for the Roxborough Av- enue School and $1,660 for the pre- paration of drawings for alterations and additions tothe Ritson Public School, Ald, Dafoe contended that It was MUCH WATER PUMPED Oshawa was some 22 million gale lons thirstier this July than last, according to A, E. Colvin of the Public Utilities Commission, At least there were 115,173,000 gallons of water pumped during the past month of July to the city of Osh- awa as compared with 932,515,000 gallons pumped during July of 1045, CITY REQUESTS MANDATORY ORDER To Proceed With Construc- tion Of Sewage Disposal Plant The first step toward the con- struction of the proposed sewage disposal plant, trunk sewers and in- cinerator was taken last night when City Council authorized application to the Provincial Department of Health for a mandatory order to proceed with the projects. Mayor McCallum reported he had talked to Dr, A. E, Berry of the Department who had suggested this actiion, ! "He saw the site and approved of the plans as suggested by Meadows, Critoph. He also approved of the outfall going into the creek", de- clared Ald, Ernie Cay. . While it does not expect that it will be approved, Council included the incinerator project in the hope that it also might' be passed by the provincial authorities. Mayor MeCallum sald Dr, Berry would present the Council's appli- cation to the proper authorities.

This mass meeting was called in Oshawa in conjunction with a nation-wide holding of such gatherings called by the, Canadian Ukrainian Com- mittee, In addition to the main speaker, Capt. Kapusta who returned from Europe three weeks ago where he travelled extensively through the displaced persons camps in carry~ ing out his duties as a member of the Royal Canadian Dental Sop, T, K, Creighton, K.C,, M.L.A, for Ontario Riding at Queen's Park, spoke briefly and gave his com- mendation stating "The bitter fate of your kinfolf must be of concern to all, We would do well to try to alleviate their poignant distress. Your resolutions are commendable and the general public should know of the desperate plight of these displaced persons in Europe, They should be accorded a measure of relief, I personally whenever called upon will do anything I can to sup- port your action." Alderman Michael Starr also spoke briefly and read a letter from W. E, N, Sinclair, K.C.,, MP, who could not attend the meeting due to the pressure of parliamentary work at Ottawa, This letter assured the meeting of the full sympathy of Mr, Sinclair with the aims of the resolution and gave his further assurance that he would support it TAKE DISPLACED (Continued on Page 13) - WAIT PERMISSION CALL ODT WORKERS UPLATE PLANT Employees Voted 98 Per Cent, In Favor Of Strike Action "I am walting for strike permis. sion frem the International Execu~ tive," commented James Smith, Re~ gional Director of the U.AW.-C10,, yesterday, He stated that the em- ployees of the Duplate Division of Local 222, UAW.-CI10, had voted 98 per cent, in favor of going on strike, . The strike vote was ordered by the Duplate membership at 'a meet~ ing on July 26 when the company proposals were rejected by the un~ fon, The vote was held on August In contract regotiations the clauses in dispute were union se- curity, hours of work and vacations with pay. The union asked for a union shop and check-off, a reduc tion in the work week from 48 to 40 hours with no reduction in take- homme pay, and an increase of $2 a ay, . On the vacation issue the union asked for two weeks' vacation with pay, The company offered one week at two per cent of the workers' ane nual earnings for employees with one to five years seniority, four per cent for employees with over five years seniority, with two weeks va cation at the discretion of the com~ pany. The company offered a reduction in the work week from 48 to 45 hours with a 10 per cént Increase in the base rate, This offer means an increage in the hourly rate for the majority of the employees of from five to seven cents an hour, which with the reduction in the work - week means an increase in take-home pay of from 84 cents to $1.12 a week, 70 MEMBERS OF LOGAL CHURCH AT MARTYR'S SHRINE Rev. J. C, Pereyma Assists In Celebration Of The Mass Seventy members of St. George's Greek Catholic Church here joined in the first pilgrimage ever to be held in Eastern Canada by the Ukrainian Greek Catholics when they journeyed to the Martyr's Shrine near Midland, Ontario, on Sunday. In the Ukraine, it has been a tradition for centuries for the Cath. olics (there of the Greek Catholic faith) to journey annually and to worship at the shrine of some martyr, Usually in the homeland it was by foot or by oxcart that the travellers would go on their sacred pilgrimage. ; . Modern Methods But on Sunday 700 people came from Grimsby, Kitchener, Toronto, and Oshawa by modern buses and by cars to renew this an- clent custom in their new land, from Oshawa alone, and the con- gregation of St, George's Greek Catholic church, there were five carloads and one bus. In the old land it was to shrines famous in Ukrainian sacred history. In Ontario it was to the Martyr's Shrine at Fort 8te, Marie near Mid- land, This was erected to com- memorate the Jesuit fathers, Bre beuf, Lalemant, and Jogues who 300 years ago at Fort Sainte Marie sac rificed their lives in an attempt to teach the Huron Indians the Chris. tian way of life, Mass Celebrated Rt, Rev, Msgr, P, Kamenicky, of Toronto, was celebrant of the High Mass. Co-celebrants were Father B, Daurman, of Toronto; Father A. Roboreckl, of Toronto; Very Rev. Father N. M. Kohut, of Grimsby, and Father J, Pereyma, of Oshawa, Later in the afternoon, the "Moleben," or devotion to the Sac- red Heart wag held in the open air near the Shrine, After arrival of all groups, a Processional was held led by Father T, J, Lally, of Fort Ste. Marie, Mid- land, and the visiting fathers. Singing the ancient Ukrainian "Pligrim Melody," the Processional needed no intoning, Words and mu- slic came spontaneously from the Canadian-Ukrainians, young and old alike, During the Mass, a spell choir from the Toronto parishes sang under Choir Conductor Harry Rudy, Toronto, Deacons for the Mass were Father N. Swirsky and Father H, Adams. In honor of the tercentenary of the martyrdem. of St. Isaac Joques and 8t, John de Lalande in 1646, Pontifical High Mass will be cele- brated at Martyrs' Shrine next Sunday by Cardinal MoGuigan, 4 Lack of Materials 4 To Stop Assembly Lines This Friday Output - and Employment Had Reached Postwar High -- 1,500 of 4,100 Factory Employees Will Remain at Work For In- definite Periods In Vari- ous Departments Assembly lines at General Motors of Canada will halt at 4:00 p.m, on Friday of this week and the flow of cars and trucks to Canadian consumers will cease for lack of materi- als, William A, Wecker, Presi- dent of the Company, said to- day, Strikes in vital supplier industries have necessitated this step, Mr, Wecker said, The big plant at Oshawa joins Canada's strike-induced production black-out at a time when output and employment had reached a postwar high, Passenger cars and trucks to the number of 1700 a week were being turned out during July and the early part of August and operations would have gone steadily upward if it had not been for the strikes prevailing in relate ed industries, There are 20 such strikes affecting the local plant and this number has shown no reduc- tion for many months, Banks of material, accumulated with great difficulty, could not be maintained and when the supply of vital ma« terials from a number of Canadian sources was stopped more recent strikes, the situation ame hope- Disappointment to Company Mr, Wecker made it clear that the plant shutdown is a disappoint« ment to the Company and that almost superhuman efforts had been made to avoid such a step, In a notice to employees he referred to the efforts which have been ex- erted by the material department in recent months in the hope that the plant might be kept running until regular supplies from strike bound plants could be resumed, It was a pity, he said, that in spite of every~ thing humanly possible being done the lights had to go out on still another section of Canada's indus- trial front, Not the least significant phase of the situation is the effect it will have on the Dominion's critical motor car shortage. Cieneral Mo- tors at Oshawa, as a direct result of strikes in plants other than its own, is 50,000 cars and trucks short this year compared with the number produced from January 1 to August 3, 1041, Step Unavoidable "We are sorry we have to take the step," Mr, Wecker sald, "but it is unavoidable, We have done our utmost to stay in production and the fault is not ours, We are as- Suring ous employees that the plant will reopened without delay when conditions permit, We are determined to increase production and employment generally, to be- yond prewar levels just as rapidly as possible, We are confident of the future, but at the present mo- ment, only a certain amount of time will correct the lem which has arisen as a result of unfortunate work stoppages elewhere." Of the 4100 factory employees at Oshawa, it is estimated that somo 1500 will remain at work in various departments for indefinite periods beyond Friday. Award Contract For Sidewalks The tender of Edgar Glover of North Oshawa, who last year re- constructed a number of stretches of sidewalk in the city, was last night awarded the contract for the construction of some 28,000 square feet of new cement concrete side- walks in the residential areas of the city, His was the lowest of the two tenders received, The successful bidder, who sub- mitted a tender of 40 cents per square foot, stated that if the ce- ment situation became no worse than it is at present that he could do the job. ; Ald, Starr, who stated that Mr, Glover had done a good job on re- placement of sidewalks last year, ex- planed that only the tenders for the construction of new walks should be considered as the city is looking after the replacements this year, TWO WEEKS' ADJOURNMENT An adjournment of two weeks was granted this morning by Mag- istrate Ross Hossaok in the case of George Kovachik, 252 Beatty Aven. ue, charged With common assault on Katherine Cheredaryk, 354 Beat- J| ty Avenue, stated | Going To Convention MAYOR F.

W. Minett voting in opposition, At its last meeting the Council deferred a decision as it could not decide whether to purchase the one and five cent type of the type pers mitting the depositing of one, two, three, four or five cents, Mr, Mile ler, the Canadian representative of the company, waited upon council last night and answered questions regarding the operation of both, , The contract for the purchcase of the meters was signed later in the evening by Mayor McCallum, It provides for the delivery of the meters not later than October 1 and stipulates that for every days delay after that date the company will pay a penalty of $10, . Council was in receipt of a letter from O. ©, Eagle, 73 Cadillac Aves nue North, which claimed that in the purchase of the meters Council was overlooking the fact that the people who used the meters had ale ready paid for the street in taxes. He claimed the meters would be an imposition, : Ald, Dafoe commented that it was true that the taxpayers had paid for the walks and pavements but there were some who parked all day. The idea of the meters was to pres vent parking all day in one spot so preventing others from doing so, The lettér was received and filed, It was recalled by Ald, A, G. Dave is that on Saturday last in order to pick up parcels for a plenic he had beer forced to drive arouna for some ten minutes and then double-park, Ald, 0. W. Minets sald the meters were to control rking not to make money, He avored the one and five cent type as did Ald, Michael Starr, Mayor McCallum explained that the meters would only be installed in certain areas and if they proved unsatisfactory they could be taken out or changed, In reply to a question from Ald, Dafoe, Mr, Miller said that 90 per cent, of his sales were of the one and five cent type. Sales had been made to Cobourg, Port Hope and larger Ontario centres, It was less complicated, cost less for maintens ance, required less police enforces ment and were less confusing and at the same time produced more revenue for the city, He sald this type could be delivered in 30 days and carried a four-year guarantee as compared with a 46-day delivery and one-year guarantee for the other type. -- THE WEATHER Cloudy with widely scattered showers; clearing tonight; Wed- nesday clear, A little warmer today and Wednesday, Low toe Ne 06 and high Wednesday *
