Police Commission Has â€" Power to Stop Parades _ and Demonstrations f Under recent amendments to the Ontario Municipal Act, the Police Comâ€" mission has the power to forbid public meetings and processions in the Town of Timmins. Formerly, only the perâ€" mission of the Council was needed to have demonstrations. In recent bulâ€" letin to the Council, the Department of Municipal Affairs pointed out that the Commission may, at any time, forâ€" bid a demonstration to be held if it considers it against the public interest Relizious demonstrations are exempted from that classification. The head of the municipality or the Chief of Police is authorized, under the new amendments to the Act, to hire guards for municipal property. Heavy penalties are provided for guards who are negligent in their duties. . "We still have to pay for the guards," said Councillor Armstrong. "We have three on at the present time and it is costing us about $300 a month extra on the payroll. We should protest that expenditure. It was intimated to us the last time we Were in Toronto, that the government was zoing to bear that expense." Amendment.to Municipal Act Says Police Commission \ May Stop Parades and Demonstrations.

The bulletin, which was discussed at last night‘s meeting of Council, also gaid that the Council is now authorizâ€" ed to borrow money "for patriotic purâ€" poses." To do so, however, the Town is not allowed to issue debentures, and although the permission of the elecâ€" torate is not needed, the question must first ‘be submitted to the government board known as the Organization of Resources Board for its approval. Councillor Gauthier suggested that memn who were receiving relief be apâ€" pomted but Treasurer A. L. Shaw pointed out that the Town would still, by government order, have to pay the men $2.80 a day if single and $3.20 a day if married, whether they were reâ€" lief recipients or not. Town Timber Tract The existence of a timber tract, the area of which was not known to the Council nor the exact location, was made known at the meeting. Apparâ€" ently, a number of years ago, the Counâ€" cil took advantage of a government offer to hold a timber tract somewhere in the vicinity of Wawaitin Falls for the Town. The Town was to have its relief recipients cut wood there. 1.O.D.E.

Italy Draws Farther Away Mussolini Apparently Wants No Part in German Peace Proposals. Suggest Hitler Will Recommend German Protectorate in Part of Poland. Germany May Threaâ€" ten Belgian Neutrality Daladier Charges Propaganda. It will be conciliatory in tone, comâ€" petent authorities say, and ‘will recomâ€" mend that a part of Poland be set up again, not as an independent state, but as a protectorate of Germany. Italy has draiwn further and further away from implication in Germany‘s or Russia‘s peace proposals to the Alâ€" lies. The Fascists apparently think that the United States should be drawn into such proposals if they are to be successful. Augur, reputaible European news anâ€" alyst, says that the fact that Mussolini seems to be veering away from associaâ€" tion with Germany in such proposals indicates that she places her faith in the Allies to be the first to crack the western front. Mussolini apparently believes that the Westwal will break before the Maginot Line. The speech which Hitler will deliver to the Reichtag at noon tomorrow (6 a.m. ES.T.) is expected to contain a "peace ultimatum" to the Allies. In Paris Premier Daladier said that France does not want a truce between two aggressors but a lasting peace How Hitler‘s proposals will be acceptâ€" ed remains to be seern. Britain has made clear her stand however. Unless they contain ways and means of bringâ€" ing about a permenant peace she will have nothing to do with them. A perâ€" manent peate to Britain means the abolition of Hitlerism.

The first was that Turkey close the Dardenelles to British and French fleets and keep them out of the Black Sea and the second that Turkey cancel the provision in her treaty with Britain and France which guarantees that the latter two powers will assist Turkey if she goes to the defente of a Balkan state against agâ€" gression.
