LURCHED ONTO LAWN The cruiser was finally stop- ped at the Mount Lawn Ceme- tery when it lurched onto a lawn in front of the cemetery. The #7 suspect attempted to escape on foot but was stopped by the by- stander who was riding with Constable Baker. Two members of the Whitby Council, shop after a hectic night of council, had discovered the break-in at the sports store just after midnight. Deputy Reeve Warren Mowat and Acting Clerk Forbes Mec- Ewen heard glass breaking as they were entering the coffee shop. Running across the Deputy Reeve Mowat cried that there had been a break-in when he saw a person entering the back of the store. As he yelled out, the man dodged behind a counter and then crashed through a side window oveflook- ing a lane on the north side. McEwen dashed down the alley but was unable to catch the bleeding suspect.

Claims Inspector Was Bootlegging QUEBEC (CP) -- A laborer and a hotel keeper testified Monday they received illicit lig- uor from Leopold Perreault, a former inspector with the Que-! bec liquor police, and later paid money to him for "protection." Oscar Emond, 55, of Ste. Anne de Portneuf, Que., and hotel keeper Cyrias Tremblay, 62, of Riviere Portneuf, Que., were testifying at the preliminary] hearing of three former mem- bers of the Quebec liquor police charged with defrauding the provincial government of more than $500,000. Charged with Perreault are Rene Lemire, former Quebec district chief of the now - dis- banded force, and Dell-Ray La- i forest, Lemire's stepson. Emond said he gave Perre- ault $100 for "protection" on two occasions when Perreault de- manded the money after selling him illicit liquor. "Another time," Emond said, "I told Perreault I didn't have any money, that all I had was a family pleasure craft." mond said Perreault took GM Proposals R After Weeks Of Talk = DETROIT (AP) General Motors Corporation today of- fered the United Auto Workers a three - year contract which would provide an annual wage increase of six cents 'an hour and also a cost-of-living allow- ance, The company also offered expanded fringe benefits and what it called a new income guarantee to supplement pay in short work weeks.

The 354,000 unemployment to- tal for mid-July--highest for the month in post-war years--was 24,000 higher than the July, 1960, figure. JOBHOLDERS UP Meanwhile, the number of persons with jobs increased by 167,000 between June and July to 6:389,000. This was 127,000 higher than a year earlier.

The results of the survey are anal yzed by the federal labor de- partment in a joint statement with the bureau of statistics. The report said the month's rise in employment--*'somewhat greater than seasonal"--was re- flected in all regions of Canada. There was an above-normal employment gain in trade and manufacturing industries. Em- ployment was "mod er ately firmer" in the construction in- dustry. Farming provided 87,000 addi- tional jobs during the month-- about half the month's gain in job numbers. : In the year-to-year rise of 127,- 000 in employment, most of the new jobs -- 101,000 -- went to women. Male employment rose by 26,000. Employment in farming to- talled 792,000 in July, a decline of 27,000 from a year earlier. This slack was more than taken up by a three-per-cent gain over the year in non-farm employ- ment to 5,597,000 from 5,443,000, Service industries showed a six per-cent gain and employment was also higher in manufactur. ing: trade and finance. riots which broke out in the| § area Saturday night.
