St. Pierre, 34- year-old taxi-drvier .acéused of , murder in the shotgun slaying last 4 Oct. 1 of his elderly father-in-law, went to the jury shortly before ' noon today. re Mr. Justice Jean Genest said in * his charge to the Ontario Supreme Court jurors that, if they believe St. Pierre was sane the night of the slaying, they have no alterna- tive but to find him guilty of mur- der, If they believed the accused man was not responsible for his action, they could return a verdict of in- nocent by reason of insanity. St. Pierre's counsel . maintained stoutly that the cab-driver shouid not be convicted. He contended . that medical testimony showed the accused man was mentally unfit. Defence Counsel James H. Clark and Crown Attorney A. D, Bell completed their cases yesterday af- ternoon and Mr. Justice Jean Gen. est called an adjournment until ! this morning to allow time to pre- * pare his charge. : » Mr, Clark submitted that evi- dence of St. Pierre's actions over { a long period of time showed he did i not possess a sane, rational mind, ¢ that he could not have been in a { balanced state at the time, Oct. 1, ! that he shoved a shotgun through + a window and fired as his elderly + father-in-law, Joseph Mcllhargey, : came out of the bathroom, i Mrs. St. Pierre lived at her fath- % er's home after separating from . the aceused some years ago. How- % ever, she said that while he was 'refused admittance to the Mcllhar- i gey home, she was on friendly re- "lations with her husband and went "out with him regularly. % Mr. Bell for the crown however *.declared that it was a case of » "cold, premeditated murder.' He , told the jury: "The mere fact that * he does not remember does not * mean that he did not know what * he was doing that night." : Before the trial opened a special i jury panel had found that St. * Pierre was fit to stand trial. * » Chinese Mob - (Continued from Page 1) .

Moscow Radio adds its bit to the Ruhr's turbulent political plot by broadcasting a special program to hungry Ruhr miners seeking to prove that the way to more pota- toes was through the Communist party. The Ruhr, which has remained comparatively quiet since last win. ter's food riots, sprang suddenly into the European picture when the 1,~ 550-calory subsistence ration level dropped in many places to levels of 11,200 and even 1,100. Although British-American food imports have been on schedule, col- Jsshions from German farmers have not. . Against the advice of their union leaders, Ruhr workers have launch- ed protest strikes. Starting with 25000 yesterday, the ranks of the strikers appeared to be swelling well over the 100,- 000 mark today and a general strike involving most of the 4,000,000 wor- kers threatened the entire Ruhr. In the midst of these develop- ments, the "Protocol M" decument popped up simultaneously at several places in Germany. "Protocal M" was reported to be an operational order from the Con- inform--Communist "International Information Bureau" -- for a para- lyzing strike in the Ruhr in March, aimed at smashing the Marshall Plan. Foreign Office officials in Lon- don said they believed the document was "genuine." Whether it is an actual docu- ment of the cominform or not, the plan's orders closely follow known German Communist aims and it ap- peared that hunger threatened to touch off the desired gerieral strike two months ahead of schedule, MONEY FROM TREES Hudson Bay, Sask.

Bennett that money doesn't come from trees-- he knows better, Bennett oper- ates a trapline east of this north- eastern Saskatchewan town and found one of his traps had been dragged away.

Registers Four Careless Driving Convictions Magistrate Frank 8. Ebbs today registered: four convictions for care- less driving. One of the four accus- ed was also found guilty of driving without an operator's license, Everard McGrath, 644 Sommer- ville Avenue, pleading guilty, was fined '$25 and costs or one month as a result of a New Year's Eve ac cident in which he was involved north of Oshawa on the highway to Port Perry, Provincial Constable Gordon Keast testified that he he found the northbound McGrath car on the west side of the road where it had coilided with a south- bound auto driven by L. A, Pelow, 333 Albert Street. McGrath and his passenger, Raymond Beamish, 466 Louisa Street, and Pelow and the latfer's mother-in-law all suffered minor injuries, J. P. Mangah, K.C,, was counsel for the accused. Pleading innocent to a charge of careless driving on December 15 when he collided with a cyclist near Winnie's Inn at dusk, John W. Mur- doch, 27 Warren Avenue, was con- victed and fined $25 and costs or one month by Magistrate Ebbs here today, James Stilwell, victim of the accident, told the court he was re- turning from Toronto to his home on Garrard Road, riding along the south side of the highway with no traffic coming from the east, when he was struck from behind and knocked unconscious, He was in the Oshawa General Hospital for three days being treated for chest and head injuries. Murdoch stated today that he was blinded by the lights of oncoming traffic and did not see the cyclist. Stilwell's bicycle, displayed as evid- ence in the courtroom, had its read rear wheel smashed and twisted. James Brayley, of Whitby, was fined $10 and costs or 10 days on each of two charges: Careless driv- ing and driving without a license. He pleaded guilty, Evidence was that Brayley driving east, collided with the rear left corner of a trans- port truck which was pulling off the south shoulder of Highway No, 2 at Winnie's Inn, October 24. Brayley told the court he saw the tractor- trailer unit but could not stop or misg it. His car was struck from be- hind by a taxi driven hy James Taylor, also of Whitby, who was fined $10 and costs or 10 days on a similar charge, because, said the Magistrate, "the evidence is so ag- gravating." " Called by Crown Attorney Alex C. Hall to give evidence, Brayley sald he d¥ not know what happened af- ter he struck the transport since he was knocked out, His car ended up 100 feet off the north edge of the highway in a field, Taylor was represented by A.W.S. Greer, K.C, Black Market (Continued from Page 1) the government plans to ask par- liament to extend its price control powers, scheduled to expire March 31, for another year. Will Prosecute . Warning that the prices board is considering prosecution of per- sons who appear to have been selling at prices higher than is "reasonable and just," he said mark-up controls, which govern the retailer's margin of price pro- fit, will be applied to certain types of fertilizers selling at sharp in- creases in Eastern Canada and "where necessary," to imported fruits and vegetables. At the same time, price ceilings on sugar, molasses, oils, fats, cer- tain canned fruits and vegetables, residential rents and primary iron, steel and tin, will be continued until circumstances justify their removal. ; Mr, Abbott indicated the prices board already had made certain investigations into recent increases of food prices in Canada. He said he had asked the board to make further investigations to deter- mine if there are grounds for Prosecutions for unreasonable price ikes, The new butter price ceiling will be based on a price of 67 cents a pound for wholesale solids at Mon- treal, with the customary regional differentials and wholesale and retail mark-ups, which means the retail price across Canada will be in the vicinity of 71 cents a pound. The ceiling is expected to last un- til the high production season opens next June. On For Year Pe meat ceilings will be based on the higher prices announced two weeks ago in the contract covering Canadian meat shipments to Britain in 1948 and may con- tinue for a year, They will mean that Canadian wholegale and retail prices for pork products will be "considerably above" those prevailing a mont ago but less than many of the prices which have been reported during the last two weeks. Beef, lamb and veal prices will be fixed at levels "moderately above" the ceiling which was removed in Oc- tober, when feed grains also were decontrolled. he new order establishing the new butter price will be issued "in a day or two" but the meat price scheduled, which take longer to draft, will not become available for about two weeks. However, the re-control announcement is expected to bring meat prices "al- most immediately into line" with the proposed ceilings. Mr. Abbott disclosed that the government has initiated discus- sions with a view to obtaining access to additional supplies of butter should stocks and. produc- tion prove insufficient to meet essential requirements until the new production season gets under way. WRONG WORD The wrong word at the wrong | time brought a sentence. of one month in county jail for Freeman Williams, no fixed abode, who was arraigned in police court here to- day on a charge of vagrancy.

Spotlighted by Disagreement PD General Lucius D. Clay, U.S. military governor of occupied zone in Ger- many, left, shakes hands with Licut.-Gen. Sir Brian Robertson, the British military governor, as they met in Frankfurt to discuss the new plans for German bizonal economic administration. Evidently this meet- ing and plan does not suit the Russians, In the Soviet army paper, "Taegliche Rundschau," an editorial deplored the meeting on the plan. They also hinted, in the story, that the Reds will attempt to force the h | western Allies to leave Berlin, Said the story, written by M. Sibinow, a Russian officer, "There is no room in Berlin for adherents of the parti- tion of Germany." However, Generals Clay and Robertson have antici pated the possibility to attempt to force them out of Berlin and it is known that they are prepared to fight it. Drew Defends Action On Power Development Wingham, Jan, 16---(CP)--Pre- mier Drew of Ontario opening the Progressive Conservative campaign in the Huron riding by-election, said last night in a broadcast ad- dress that greatest power develop- ment in the history of the province now is under way in Ontario. After commending Thomas Pryde of Exeter to Huron voters who will elect a successor Feb. 16 to the late Dr. R. Hobbs Taylor of Dashwood, a Progressive Conservative, he said that his government already has undertaken construction of plants which will produce 1,100,000 new. horsepower. "Furthermore, we have greatly in- creased our supply of power as a result of new arrangements made with producers of power cutside of Ontario. In this way, quite apart from the new construction, we have increased our supply of power to a greater extent than if has ever been increased within a corresponding period, "In July, 1943, the last month a when the government of which Mr. Oliver (Farquhar Oliver, Liberal leader of the opposition) was 'a member in office, the power avail able for all consumers from the Hydro Electric systems throughout Ontario was 2,004 horsepower. Last month the .Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario delivered 2,992,724 "horsepower, an increase in 41% years of atout 50 per cent." The Premier said his government had "more than carried out" its 19043 electicn promise to assume half the cost of education, It. has increa- sed educational opportunities and at the same time removed much of the burden from the local taxpayer. "In-an effort to improve the sta- tus of our teachers, we passed an act giving the Ontario Teachers' Federation statutory authority and effective. representation. We en- couraged the building of new schools and , .. can now justifiably claim that the new schools being built throughout Ontario are not surpas- sed anywhere on this continent." '| the estimated time for the. distance. ! radios and a wide range of other Washington Spotlight By CLYDE BLACKBURN Canadian Press Staff Writer Weshington, Jan, 16 -- (CP) -- "Protocol in the afternoon" could be the title for the scene staged at the Army Transport Command air- port Monday night when Canada's Defence" Minister Claxton came down out of stormy skies for a four-day visit to washington, The minister's plane was due from New York at five o'clock and the pentagon people decided it would be a nice gesture to send a guard of honor out to the airport. Canadian Ambassador Hume Wrong was there with his minis- ter, Tommy Stone, and the army, air and navy mattaches and military mission higher officers, At five o'clock the smart guard was lined up ready to be ihspect- Rain at Five The rains came at five o'clock but not the minister. The minu- tes ticked off, rain ran off diplo- | matic noses and the welcomers danced, shivered and mumbled. After this had gone on for half an hour Hume Wrong began to fidget more than has dose of Washington sinusitis and wet cloth- es warranted. The reason was that he was wrestling with protocol. Should the ambassador take the initiative and suggest that the guard be dismissed, or would that be a breach of courtesy? About 5.35, about half a dozen false alarms and still no sign of the minister, the army guard of- ficer hesitatingly asked Hume if it. would be all right to dismiss the guard, "Certainly, by all means, an ex- cellent idea, just what I have been | wanting to suggest;" cried the re- lieved ambassador, "And thank you so much for coming." 40 Minutes Late The guards scurried into their fleet of buses and everybody felt happier. Then, 40 minutes . later, Mr. Claxton's shiny Dakota wheel- ed up through the darkness, "By jove, I'm sorry to be late" were the minister's first words as protocol took over and the ambas- sador, blinking raindrops from *his eye-lids, presented the long line of soggy diplomats and service brass. It seemed that the plane had been bucking a 70-mile head wind and the trip from New York had taken just under two hours, double Anglers Wade In, Fish With Hands Bloemfontein, South Africa, -- (CP)--Fishermen at Mazelspoort caught more fish in five . minutes with their bare hands than they did in five hours with their rods when the sluice-gates had to be opened after heavy rain, The Modder River came down in flood, and after the gates had been opened pools of water formed in the river bed below the dam wall, It soon became evident that these pools were alive with fish, Anglers dropped their rods ang holiday-makers ran from the river- bank to share in the catch. The fish were killed with sticks or "netted" with sacks and even taken out of the water by hand. The fish were mostly carp and barbel, Coal Miners (Continued from Page 1) labor department has, Begun on the Alberta side of the Crow's Nest Pass, where union men walked out hours after wage nego- tiations ceased, the strike spread rapidly through British Columbia and Alberta. Saskatchewan mines, the major- ity also covered by district 18, held firm, however, and no indication was given a strike was probable there. A contract covering them was signed last December, Lacking official union comment, it was assumed the miners had struck on a '"no-contract-no-work" basis. In negotiations, their representa- tives demanded a $3-a:day in- crease, a minimum wage of $11 a day and an increase of seven cenis in the levy a ton paid to their wel- fare fund. Cut Calves' Horns, Save Grazing Space London -- (CP) -- Breeders of Ayrshire cattle throughout North- arn England have pledged them- elves to remove the horns from :heir heifer calves because: The post-war crisis policy is to sxpand livestock farming, and there will be no room for horns; farmers owning polled herds say these thrive better because they feed and live together quietly; there is less waste of food and yards, more animals can be kept in a given space if they are horn- ess, TARIFF.

SPEEDIEST MOTOR SHIP Stockholm-- (CP) -- The world's fastest cargo motor ship recently was delivered by a Swedish ship- yard to the Swedish Trans-Atlan- tic Line. - She is the 9,000-ton Contributory Pension Plan Ottawa, Jan. 16--(CP)--Contri- butory old age pension and health insurance plans have been under constant review by the health de- partment since the Dominion-Pro- vincial Conference ended in failure in 1946, but so far the plans have not been submitted to cabinet for approval, it was learned yesterday. One health department source said he did not think the plaps had yet been put in the form of* bills which could be submitted to parlia- ment. Health Minister Martin de- cilned to say whether the plans will be submitted to parliament this year and added he could not coms met on reports that comprehensive plans were ready. The department source said he was certain that both a national health insurance program and a contributory old age pension system will be introduced eventually in Canada, but he did not know how soon, Another source said the govern- ment still considers the social se- curity measures outlined at the ill- | fated Dominion-Provincial Confer- ence as part of its platform. At the conference which broke up when the Dominion and the pro- vinces could not find a common basis for new taxation agreements, the federal government offered to pay a large share of the cost of a national health insurance program. It also offered to pry the full cost of $30 a month pensions to every- body 70 and over. It would share with the provinces the cost of pen- sions to needy persons between the ages of 65 and 69. It is not known how much Can- adlans would be asked to contribute to any pensions and health 'pro- gram. It was estimated that to meet the costs of the offers origin- ally made to the provinces the Do- minion would have to levy about $6 per capita. May Raise Rents Wartime Homes Rents for Oshawa's 125 wartime and veterans houses, which have remained unchanged while taxes and rents of many other properties in the city have been increased, are likely to be raised. This will be the result if a de- cision by the City Council last night to enter into a new agreement with Central Mortgage and Housing Cor- poration concerning the houses is carried into effect. Also increased would be the amount received from CMHC by the city in lieu of taxes on the proper- ties. Under the existing agreements, the city receives amounts ranging frem $24 to $30 per annum for each of the houses erected during the war by Wartime Housing Ltd. Of these, 50 are classed as "wartime" houses and the remaining 75, built later, as "veterans houses." The total amount paid to the city annually is $3,222 plus $75 for street lighting, According to 1947 assess. ment, however, the taxes they would bring would be $7,631.66. Provision has now been made whereby CMHC will increase the amount pald to municipalities in lieu of taxes on such houses, in which case higher rents would be collected. Provision may also be made for immediate sale of the houses. Council was of the opinion that such increases would be only fair in view of the higher taxes paid by most taxpayers and higher rents by others. It was pointed out that 299 new houses alone had been erected between January 1, 1945 and Sep- tember, 1947, an estimated 90 per cent of which were built and occu- pied by ex-service personnel and their families, REPLANTING FORESTS London -- (CP) -- During the next five years nearly 1,500,000 acres are to be devoted to refores- tation it was announced at the report of the forestry commission= ers.
