T. B. Victim Gets T‘wo Months for selling Beer Gerald McAlinden, who it was said in court on Tuesday, was suffering from tuberculosis in an advanced stage, was sentenced to two months hard labour in Haileybury jail when it was conclusively proved that he had sold beer Magistrate Atkinson remarked that he was impasing only the minimum sentence in the case inasmuch as Mcâ€" Alinden was ill. Usual sentence after siich a conviction is three months. Fred Boxwell, who was caught by police after he came out of McAlinâ€" den‘s house, at 111 Pine street south, having bought twelve pints of beer, told the court that he had paid $3 for the brew around midnight last pay day. Constable Guolla said that he was patrolling when he saw Boxwell put something in the rear of his car. When he investigated and found it to be beer he got a search warrant for Mcâ€" Alinden‘s house and paid a visit. There were four men and two women Imposing Only the Minimum Sentence, States Magisâ€" trate. in the house. There was one case of empty beer bottles and another hal{f case, from which twelve pints were missing. In his pocket MeAlinden had $3.00 and some silver. The two women in the car with Boxwell were Indian girls, Constable XNeil said. McAlinden made a blanket denial. He said that he did not know Roxwell ARCHITECT 7 Reed Block Timmins ESwiss Watchmaker Graduate of the Famous Horological Institute of Switzerlarnd Third Avenue MacBrien Bailey J.

The psople present in his house when police visited were there for a "farewell party". He was not workâ€" ing, McAlinden said, because he had been ill. He had, in the past, spent time in a sanitarium. The college student, son of a clergyâ€" man, discovered he was uncomfortably short of money, so he spent some time concocting a letter which should have the right effect upon a somewhat severe and pious parent. When finally comâ€" pleted the letter read : ‘My Dear Father: I wonder if you will oblige me very greatly by sending me a copy of this month‘s Parish Maâ€" gazine, also $50. PS.â€"Don‘t forget the Parish Magazine."â€"Globe and Mail. The charge against Mr. Maltais was the second of its kind to be heard in Timmins. First was against Charles Millard, C.LO. official. It was heard several months ago. Mr. Maltais was represented by J. E. Lacourciere. Prosecution was conductâ€" ed tby Crown AttOrney Caldbick who has been specially empowered by the Attorney General‘s Department to act in cases of this kind. Ordinarily the prosecution of such cases is conducted only by a representative of the Attorâ€" ney General‘s Department. Asked pointâ€"blank by the Crown if he was a Communist, Mr. Maltais said he did not espouse the doctrines of the Communist Party nor was he a memâ€" "I don‘t like the Communists espeâ€" clally after they wouldn‘t come into the war with us," he said. At the table with Mr. Maltais when he was alleged to have made the disâ€" puted statements, was Gerald Martin. A~witness for the defence, he said that he and Mr. Maltais had talked cof conâ€" tractsâ€"Of many things but not of Communism. Crown Attorney S. A. Caldbick agreed that there was not enough eviâ€" dence for a conviction. Accordingly, a dismissal was made in both charges. The accused did not appear to be drunk, said Mr. Beaudin. He talked rationally enough. Crossâ€"examined, he said that he had never been an enemy of Maltais‘. He denied, that he had many times argued with the accused over the fact that he did not get enough relief when Mr. Maltais was a councillor. It was on June 14 in the beverage room of the St. Charles, said Peéeter Beaudin. He was passing through the room when he heard Maltais say he was a Communist and didn‘t care a darn who liked it. He further said that the Communist Party was the best thing for Canada and that anyone who enlisted was "a damned fool." Ssaid John Magnon, a hotel employee "I didn‘t hear anything." "No I am not a Communist. I never was one. â€"Communism is too much against my principles," said Moise Mal_ tais, former town councillor, who apâ€" peared in police court on Tuesday afternoon to answer two charges, one that he advocated the principles of the illegal doctrinecs of Communism, and the other he had made statements to prejudice recruiting of His Majesty‘s forces. "There is not enough evidence here for a conviction," said the Magistrate after hearing the single Crown witâ€" ness, who allegally heard Mr. Maltais make the incriminating statements. "However‘", he said to the accused, "if you have been talking in this mantnher I would advise you to stop it." Among the statements Mr. Maltais was alleged by the Crown to have made were: ‘"The government of Canada is no good and a Communist government would be better for this country"; "I am a Communist and not a darned bit scared to say it." Walter Longpre, bartender in the beverage room of the St. Charles Hotel, said that he did not hear the stateâ€" ments first hand. He had been told what Maltais said by Beaudin. Not a Communist States Former Town Councillor Dismiss Defence Counts "Not a Communist and Never Was One," Moise Maltais Tells Court. "It is too Much Against My Principles."

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Corâ€" poral Cyril Kirk testified against Hakâ€" karainen, who pleaded ‘"not guilty‘". He said that his car was parked on the road near Dugwal when he saw a truck in the ditch nearly 200 yards away. He went over to investigate and Hakkarâ€" ainen was pointed out to him as the driver by two other men who evidently had been in the vehicle when it crashâ€" ed into the ditch from three to five minutes before he saw it. questioning Hakkarainen, said Corâ€" poral Kirk, he noticed a strong smell of liquor on the man‘s breath. His speech was slurred and he did not reply intelâ€" ligently to questions. Magistrate Atkinson made a convicâ€" tion. The men were Henry Horrester, Francis Bissonneault and Matti Hakâ€" karainen. Horrester and Bissonneault pleaded gullty to the charges against them. Appearing for Mr. Horrester, Mr. Dean Kester said that his client was a highâ€" ly respected man who had been driving for ten years without an accident of any kind. The occasion out of which the charge arose was his single lapse. He was known not to be a "drinking man.‘" Ten Days Each for Trio of Intoxicated Drivers T‘wo Pleas of Guilty and One Conviction of "Not Guilty" Plea in Court on Tuesday.

One of ‘them, a tearful little girl, said she did not want to take any wine but that Gilroy insisted that she have some.

While there Gilroy gave him some wine. Said the Magistrate in his scathing denunciation of Gilroy: "There is no doubt in my mind that you not only gave theseâ€" children wine to drink. You further brought them into court and had them pilloried to save your own skin." Mother of one of the boys, a chipper lad of ten years, said that the boy‘s sister met him on the street after Gilroy brought him back. He didn‘t know where he was going. Later he was 111.
