Heat Wave (Continued from Page 1) ters heading for the 90s and a peak of 95 predicted for Windsor, Lon- don and St. Thomas. Toronto was the hottest spot in Canada or the United States Wed- nesday, the Malton Weather Bu- reau reported. The official 101-de- gree reading was, just four degrees lower than the all-time record high, set of July 9 and 10, 1936. No wonder some pyjama-clad To- rontonians took their car rugs and slept the night on the cool grass of the lakefront's Exhibition Park. In Ottawa, where the thgrmome- ters hit 96. to equal a 57-year-old mark, heat victims seemed to be flopping all over the Centreal Can- ada Exhibition grounds. In all, 250 persons were reported overcome by heat on the grounds. Some musi- clans in the fair's bandstand were seen to collapse in their chairs af- ter sitting several hours in the sun. In Hamilton, where an unofficial reading of 102 was reported, dairy farmers faced a serious drought. They said pastures throughout the Niagara district are drying up and cattle have to be fed in the barns. The Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph said rain was urgently needed. In Sarnia, Wallaceburg and To- ronto among other Ontario cities workers were sent home because of the heat. Even furnace room em- ployees at one Oshawa plant, well- conditioned to extreme tempera- tures, gave up, when the room's thermometer boiled up to 119. Here were some of the high marks in Ontario Wednesday: Wal- laceburg 97; Windsor 95; St. Thom- as 96! Sarnia 96; London 90; Mal- vern 94; Killaloe 90. In Montreal, where citizens swel- tered in 90-degree heat, coal dealers announced that prices were going up 25 cents a ton. And the federal trade department in Ottawa didn't miss the opportunity to warn all Canadians to 'lay in their winter loving arms Ohituary MRS.

CORNELL Washington, Aug. 26--(AP) -- Congressional spy-prdbers today gave chase to a 1920 jalopy in a re- newed attempt to prove whether Algr Hiss or Whittaker Chambrs lied about a pre-war Communist underground in the United States. In a drama-packed encounter be- fore the House of Representatives Un-American Activities Committee Wednesday Hiss and Chambers told widely-different stories about a model "A" Ford and about nearly everything else. Chambers, short, pudgy, 47-year= old senior editor of Time Magazine, insisted' that Hiss was a member of a Red underground in Washing- ton a dozen years ago. He said he knew because he used to be a Com- munist himself and served in the underground. Hiss insisted it wasn't so, that he - doesn't even have any friends who are known to him to be Commun- ists. Formerly a policy-making official in the State Department, Hiss now is President of the Carnegie En- dowment for International Peace. He is tall, wiry and more boyish- looking than his 43 years. In a formal statement, Hiss cal- led' Chambers a "self-confessed liar, spy and traitor" and added: ¢ "Indeed, is he a man of sanity?" To a direct question from Repre- seritative Richard Nixon (Rep. "I have never been treated for mental illness." And as Hiss shook his head slightly from side to side, Cham- bers said. "Mr. Hiss is lying." He said Hiss told a story that was at least 80 per cent false, Yet his voice broke and tears flooded his eyes when he called Hiss one of his best friends. . "I don't hate Mr. Hiss," he said, "We were close friends, We were caught in the tragedy of history. Mr. Hiss represents a concealed enemy against which I am fight- ing and we are all fighting." . At various times, Hiss has told the committee that he sold, gave or loaned the car to Chambers back in 1935. Finally he settled on a statement that he had let Cham- bers have the use of the car. He sald he thought he disposed of the machine in that way and could not remember getting it back and selling it to a Washing- ton automobile firm. But Chambers said Hiss "abso- lutely" never sold him the car and he knew how Hiss got pid of it. He said he and J. Peters, who he described as head of the Com- munist Party's underground divis- ion, opposed Hiss' plan to give the car to a party organizer but.event- ually, he said, Peters told Hiss to take the Ford to the used car lot operated or owned by a Communist Calif.), Chambers replied: A and leave it, Cruel to Boy, 12 Sudbury Couple Given 6 Months Sudbury, Aug. 26--(CP) -- Peter and Gertrude Peloquin of McCon- nell. Township, north of Lake Wah- napitae in this Northern Ontario district, were each sentenced to six months in jail Wednesday for cruel- ty to a child. They were convicted of inflicting grievous bodily harm on a 12-year- old boy placed in their care by the Children's Aid Society last Novem- ber. The Aid Society physician told Magistrate Willard Cooper: "The boy's injuries are so extensive that if I described them ypu wouldn't believe it." The boy stripped in the witness box, showed scars and brui- ses from the top of his head to his ankles. "The marks on his head were ap- parently caused by burns," the doc- tor said. Mrs. Grace Wigg, Superintendent of the Children's Aid Society here, said the Peloquin home was inspect- ed and references obtained before the boy was sent there. Peloquin, who testified the marks on the boy's' head were fly bites, said the boy had bad habits and was disobedient. He admitted, how- ever, chaining the lad to the dog- house "because he persisted in run- ning away. Round World Jeep Picked Up at. Sea 270 Miles Out New York, Aug. 26--(AP)-- The tanker New Jersey reported Wednes- day night to the coast guard that it has picked up Mr. and Mrs. Ben- jamin F. Carlin--drifting 270 miles from New York in the Atlantic in an amphibious jeep--and was tak- ing them to Halifax. The coast guard said the tanker reported that the Carlins had been drifting for 10 days. Mr. and Mrs. Carlin set out early this month in a surplus army am- phibious jeep on what they said was a round-the-world tour. Their first destination was the Azores. They last were seen Aug. 11, 150 miles at sea, when a United States Navy destroyer sighted their craft. Carlin spent $9,000 converting the amphibian into a sea-going craft. F: put a transparent heod over the top of the truck, installed a larger propeller and rigged up a 500-gallon gasoline tank and at- tached it underneath. When they started, the Carlins figured they could go around the world in about six months. The jeep travels 42 miles an hour in the water and from 20 to 30 miles an hour on land. Howling Mob (Continued from Page 1) the demonstrators charged ahead. "I don't think they planned a real putsch or try to seize the city hall building," Dr. Friedenburg told reporters. "But they aimed at panicking us and scaring us out of the building, then they could say that we deserted and could not be relied upon to run the city." The two S.E.D. members of the senior committee, Karl Litke and Karl Maron, had voted against postponement of the parliament meeting. They accused the anti- Communist members of being "afraid of open criticism." The parliament session also was to have taken up S.ED. proposals on a winter emergency program. Wilhelm Pieck, Germany's top Communist, harangued 3,000 mem- bers of the Soviet-sponsored Social- ist Unity Party (S.E.D.) Wednesday night and called on the western allies to get out of Berlin. The proposal to send Berlin rep- resentatives to the westérn meeting was drafted by the city's three non- Communist parties, which has a minority in the city assembly, has strongly opposed the plan. Its op- position could easily be over-riddén in a parliamentary vote. The Communists staged a march on city hall once before. That was June 23, when they attempted to prevent parliament from voting ap- proval of the western-sponsored currency in Berlin as a rival to the Soviet-sponsored mark. Pieck accused the United States in Wednesday night's harangue of trying to saddle Germany with years of military "post-war ruination" of the country. Pleck also said the British-Am- erican air lift, which has been supplying inhabitants of the block aded western sectors, is causing deep anxiety among Berliners. As with their "senseless" bomb- ings during the war, Pieck said, the western allies are trying to "ruin Berlin commercially and as a capital." The Communist leader quoted Berliners as saying "today they come with food, tomorrow perhaps again with bombs." While Pieck gave the usual party line, informed diplomatic sources in London said Prime Minister Stalin had proposed a Berlin conference of big-four financial experts on the currency tangle, one of the main problems at the bottom of the present crisis. A London informant said envoys from Britain, the United States and France had considered the sugges- tion for a Berlin financial meeting during the current Moscow talks and had recommended acceptance. CAFE INJUNCTION REFUSED A motion on behalf of George Samatas in his action against Ilo E. Samatas for an injunction re- straining defendant from disposing of the restaurant business operat- ed under the name of New Service Lunch in Oshawa, was refused by Mr. Justice Treleaven in Weekly Court at Osgoode Hall yesterday. Costs in the case were ordered. N. Romanick acted for the applicant and R. D. Humphreys, K.C,, for the respondent, Today's Short Story NOT AGGRESSIVE By Ruth K. Kent RAVONA rushed into the trailer and grabbed the smoking fry- ing pan from the tall young man and 'threw it into the yard. "Goodness, you only drov. in fif- teen minutes ago and you're about to burn up the trailer camp," she gasped. "What was that? A shoe sole?" "No ma'am, it's an egg. It's my supper. That is , . . it was," he looked wistfully at the charred fragment on the zround. Another helpless customer, Ra- mona thought. But a good-looking one, at last, 'I'm sorry," he said as the smoke cleared enough for Ra- mona to see how blue his eyes were. "You see, mother and I are driving across the continent. This afternoon she decided to continue by train so I'm taking my time. "She always did the cooking," he explained. "Why didn't you ask mother or me to help?" Ramona asked as she set out his suppe.. He smiled. "I'm not aggressive, I guess." No, he certainly wasn't, Ra- mona thought. "Think you can wash the dishes without cutting your finger?" she asked. "I can manage," he assured her. He reached into his pocket. "How much do you charge?" "Charge?" she shouted. "Ye gods!" She stumbled from the trailer and ran across the lawn to the cabin she shared with her mother. A few raindrops were falling and they mingled with her tears. "What's up?" hér mother asked. "He tried to fry an egg," Ra- mona said, "the stuck-up sissy!" "He Jhas nice eyes. Good-look- . ing, too." Mrs. Stevens closed the findows. "We're in for a storm." Ramona shivered. She undress- ed and crawled into bed and pulled the covers over her head. lot aggressive, she thought, No, he wasn't even awake. He was stupid. Lightning flared and thun- der surrounded the cabin and Ramona's knees shook so "that the cot creaked. Then her mother was shaking her. "Wake up, dear." "How could anybody sleep?" Ramona peekea from under the covers, "Get dressed. Someone's. out on the lake in a rowboat. We'll have to take the launch out. Hurry." "Not in this storm. You know I'm scared , . ." Mrs. Stevens was helping Ra- mona dress. "I tried to rouse that new man to help me." "He'd be a big help!" Ramona grumbled as she crawled into the launch. The launch pitched crazily and the rain beat against their faces. The lightning sent shivers down Ramona's spine. - "See if you can locate the row- boat the next time it flashes," her mother said. "I can't," Ramona said, "I al- ways close my eyes." "Oh, there it is," Mrs. Stevens cried, She turned the launch and tried to draw alongside the row- boat.. "Why , .., it's the new man." "It would be!" Ramona said. "Here, you steer the boat and I'll reach over and give him a hand. He's broken an oar." . Ramona tried to hold the wheel steady, but a flash of lightning sent her hands to cover her eyes. "Oh my," her mother com- plained, "let me have that wheel. Now , .. reach over and take his hand when I pull over. He'll haul himself in. There ... now..." Ramona shivered as she leaned over as far as she dared. The young man held the broken oar toward her. "Can you grab it?" Every time Ramona touched it the waves swung the boats apart. With each flash of lightning Ra- mona jerked back. "Ramona, please try again," her mother begged. "All right," Ramona said wear- ily. She'd rescue him.. Then he could offer to pay her. That would be all. The wind swung the boats close and Ramona grabbed for the oar. She leaned way over and hung on. "Got it," the young man called. He hauled the boats close. But she was leaning too far out of the boat. With a splash she was in the water. Then a strong arm went around her and powerful muscles swam against the waves. A steady hand pulled her into the launch. She was resting against a soggy shirt front that smelled of tobacco. "Darling, you're safe," mother shouted, 'I'll get boat into, shore in a jiffy. saved your life." Ramona squirmed. "I... we'll pay you," she said, She tried to pull away but the arm tightened. "You might get cold," he said, "I'd like to keep you warm. But please don't think I'm aggressive." Ramona smiled. The summcz wouldn't be so bad after all. _ (Copyright), her this He Health Charge Is Adjourned A Month Unable to understand English, George Klem, 328 Bloor Street East, required the services of an inter- preter when he appeared in court today, charged with maintaining a privy-vault. Justice of the Peace William Igel, translated the proceedings into Ukranian, and Klem, who entered a plea of not guilty was remanded for one month. The Medical Officer of Health, Dr. A. F.

Few Work All Day At the Oshawa plant of Duplate Canada Limited there were only 35 of some 450 employees left when the normal "quitting time" of five o'clock arrived. One department ceased work as early as 1.00 pm. and most of the other employees left singly or in groups during the afternoon. It was reported the tem- perature was 131 degrees around ovens in the plant this morning. At the plant of General Motors of Canada, there were no work stoppages. It was reported that all available fans were moved from the business offices and placed along the assembly line to aid in keeping the plant at a reasonable temperature, The workers of the Ontario Steel Products Company did not leave yesterday afternoon, but there is some discussion of "taking a holi- day" today. A Company official said that it was strictly up to the men whether they left the job this afternoon or not. Although there were no victims of the heat yester- day, one Ontario Steel employee collapsed this morning and was taken to the hospital. Heavy Demand For Ice Perhaps the best indication of the strength of the heat wave is given by the sales records of the City Pure Ice Co. An official there told The Times-Gazette that "sales of ice have increased at least 50 per cent." The ice plant had only yesterday installed a new freezerf, at a cost of $15,000. The new mach- inery had been on order for some time, but had only arrived last week. It produces 14 tons of ice per day. Bowlers Brave Heat' Although they were out in the burning sun from 9 a.m. until after sundown the members of the 104 rinks competing in the Gener- al Motors Gold Cup lawn bowling tournament on the greens of the Oshawa and Whitby Clubs seemed to enjoy the heat wave. Wearing light clothing, sun hats and color- ed glasses they added a deeper tan. Ample supplies of cooling drinks were provided by the ladies of the two clubs to alleviate the heat. There is no record of any prostra- tions or of how much poundage the bowlers lost. Only two cases of the heat al- fecting residents' of the area have come to the attention of The Times-Gazette. Fred Hobbs, a vet- eran bowler, who was a spectator at the bowling tournament, was removed to his home but is fully recovered today. A patron of a local movie theatre suffered a weak spell last night, but the attack was not serious. Few Children Playing In the residential sections of the city, where small children are usu- ally to be seen at play, the streets were practically deserted. Swim- ming pools were crowded to capa- city all day. Even family pets refused to go against instinct and sought the coolest place in the house -- usu- ally in the cellar. In an effort to escape the heat, | which continues in most houses even during the hours of darkness, a number of persons have been sleeping in Lakeview Park for the pash two nights, esterday's high, as reported b: the thermometer at the For fled Motor Sales office, was 96 degrees, and this is likely to be exceeded today.
