phone 18601 by the watchman toronto january 29th for the first time in the history of ontario a session of the provincial legisla ture was postponed on the eve oi opening because of the death of the ruler of the british empire as token of their sorrow and in accord ance with the period of mourning the ontario cabinet postponed the special session of the house called to deal with the provincial inconu- tax the death of the kindly monarch lias changed the plans of the government in several respects there will be no special session as planned and the opening of the legislature on tuesday february 11th will be stripped of its social aspects the legislators will plunge immediately into their work after the reading of the speech from the throne and the voicing of sorrow at the passing of the late king acting premier h c nixon was to have led the government in the special session in the absence of premier hepburn but with the change in plans premier hepburn himself will be present when the house opens this intimation was conveyed to his colleagues the other day the premier is suffering from a heavy cold but he is understood to have told mr nixon that not withstanding his iilhealth he would be in his seat when the second session of the 19th legislature gets under way this news was received with enthusiasm by the rank and file of the liberal membership as well as by the cabinet ministers themselves just how long the premier will remain at the helm is most uncer tain in view of his state of health and his declaraton some months ago that this session would be his last health permitting he will stay on but it would seem as though this very question of his wellbeing will not be settled satisfactorily until he relinquishes the responsibilities of office we are hoping for the best one member of the cabinet said we need him at queens park and 1 think the province needs him even more allegiance to the new king was sworn by the cabinet and the mem hers of the legislature will

attorneygeueral for the province hon ernest la- pointe federal minister of justice has brought the aemiluls jarvis case to a head by referring it to the appeal court of ontario for judical determination the following statement was is sued from the office of the minis ter of justice dealing with the case the minister of justice has com pleted the review of the case of aemilius jarvis which has been the subject of widespread discus sion more particularly in the press ot ontario the minister took into account the many representations made to him and in particular the recent recommendation of the at torneygeneral of ontario hon arthur roebuck who after pro longed investigation advised the granting of a new trial the minis ter has equally considered the fact that the former attorneygeneral hon w h price opposed the granting of a new trial or any other remedial action in the presence of these cou- flictingviews held by the respective prosecuting authorities of the pro vince the minister of justice- has come to the conclusion that the ends of justice would be well served by referring the whole matter to the appeal court of ontario for judicial determination he has under his discretionary power issued an order accordingly hearing next month salter hayden kc counsel aemilius jarvis sr expects the hearing will take place ibetore the end of february in an ordinary appeal the ma terial would have to be completed and filed before the end of janu ary to have the argument heard during february he explained but where there is a direct refer ence by the minister of justice 1 believe the court of appeal will fix a date as soon as the reference has been transmitted from ottawa i am certainly pleased that action has been taken by the min ister of justice was mr jarvis observation this marks another stage in my effort to clear my name but now that the matter is definite ly before the courts again i do not believe i am at liberty to discuss it other than to express my gratitude at the opportunity to have the case reviewed in the light of the new circumstances which have been re vealed by the further investiga tions mr hayden is of the opinion that the appeal court will have before it at the hearing all the material available to the minister of justice and upon which the latter decided to refer the case to the court this will probably include all the additional matter which was placed before the minister and which was not available when the case was tried originally mr hay den stated i should think the court will have before it the re port made by the hon arthur roe buck attorneygeneral of ontario to the hon ernest lapointe while this may not include all the evi dence taken before the attorney- general in the inquiry he held much of the evidence pertinent to the issue was incorporated in mr roebucks report and will i ex pect be before the court when the case is argued the evidence in the peuall trial as well as all tho various memoranda and affidavits presented to the minister of justico in the interval sines the first trial should also be available for use at the hearing jarvis along with the late peter smith former ontario provincial treasurer was convicted in october 1924 of conspiracy to defraud tho province in bond transactions jar vis was sentenced to six months in vork county jail and smith to three years in penitentiary they were also ordered to pay jointly a fine of 600000 on appeal jarvis fine was re duced to 60000 but he had to make restitution of 140000 profit on the bond deal with the ontario government out of which the charges arose the fine against smith was revised to 100000 the other side o low taxes at nomination meetings held a few weeks ago reports of rural municipalities brought out the finan cial standing of many townships in favorable contrast with those of towns and cities we have noted a number of townships that show sur pluses of 10000 to 12000 at the end of 1935 wise economy is creditable at all times and particularly in these days when economy is needed but hu man nature is a peculiar thing in all human conduct we are apt to swing from one extreme to the other extreme township councils hot on the scent of economy some times lose sight of important con siderations the meagre salaries of competent township officials are cut to the marrow it is also easy to show a light expenditure for township roads and repairs when those important items are not kept up such a course is really extravagant in the end future years will have to pay up for it you cant get something for nothing in this world the ancient saying penny wise poud foolish still applies licenses for motor mechanics ontario bids fair to lead the rest of the dominion in the matter of examining and licensing motor mechanics the garage operators association has interested the pro vincial government in the idea of bringing the repair trade under the apprenticeship act
