In the Province of Quebec, where the total was 416 cases under observation and 26 deaths, consideration was being given to a postponement of school opening because of the outbreak. Families holidaying in the country were advised to remain there as long as possible, Figures for On- tario were 132 under observation and 10 deaths with the polio inci- dence spreading well behind that of 1937, an epidemic year. Included in the figures are a number of cases now considered cured. SHOWDOWN FORESEEN New York--The United States ul- timatium to Yugoslavia threatened today to confront the United Na- tions Security Council with a prob- lem that would bring the whole peace organization to a bitter showdown which may hinge upon the big five veto power, Up to now the council never has been faced with such an emergency as might be brought before it were the Yugoslavs," stiffened by Russia's backing, to ignore or reject the American ultimatium, ULTIMATIUM OVER- SHADOWS CONFERENCE Paris--The United States blunt ultimatium to Yugoslavia over- shadowed all else today among the diplomats assembled at Paris to write peace treaties. State Secre- tary Byrnes of the U.S. whs de- scribed as far more concerned with the audacity of Yugoslavia in shooting down two American planes than he was in trying to help Eur- ope build peace. Allied diplomats, although the agenda called for de- bate on reparations and territorial demands against Italy, were con- cerned mainly with the effect, of what some observers considered the sharpest blow dealt yet to the hope for early and amicable settlements on treaties.

Wins Acquittal Careless Driving A defence that a traffic accident in which he was involved was "one of those things", and an "act of God", won William Stacey, 21 Ash- dale Avenue, Toronto, an acquittal on a careless driving charge when he appeared before Magistrate A. : 5 Lightbourn this morning. The accident out of which the charge arose otcured on a curve at the bottom of two hills at Petticoat Creek, No, 2 Highway, around 6 pm. on July 29, during a heavy rainstorm. Evidence revealed that Stacey, driving west with a tractor and trailer, skidded on a curve and collided with Borden J. Slack, headed east, then collided with an- other eastbound car driven by Sid ney Smith, 1203 Pape Avenue, Tor- onto. Smith suffered concussion and facial cuts due to the accident and his car was a "complete wreck", ac~ cording to Provincial Constable John Scott. Slack said the damage to his car amounted to $212. The defence brought out that Stacey was fully covered by insurance and that the damages are being taken care of by the insurance company. Accused admitted that his trac- tor and trailer went into a skid, but testified he was not driving ov- er 25 miles per hour, .and added that he has been driving 24 years without a previous court appear- ance. ' The wet condition of the road and the fact that the trailer was empty, contributed to the danger of skidding, Crown Attorney A. C. Hall pointed out, and asked accus- Bruce, Mrs. W. Walters and Mr. | ed if he was not aware of that pos- sibility, "There is always road," said Stacey. careful." ' "Do you say the accident unavoidable?" asked Mr, Hall, "Yes." "In other words, it was an act of God?" : "Yes," replied accused. Louis 8. Hyman, defending the accused, suggested to the court that the evidence warranted civil liabil- ity on the part of Stacey, but was not sufficient for a careless driving charge. He pointed out again that the insurance company was settling all damages. "The degree of negligence needed in a civil action is very little, if any, less than that required for a charge under the Traffic Act." as- serted Mr, Hall. "The evidence is not sufficiérit to prove carlelessness," ruled His Wor- ship in dismissing the charge.
