Government in the Legislature in 1922 that to Mr. Maguire's firm "was paid insuran premiugs by the Ontario Hydro Commision to the amount of $31. 067.71," or more than twice as much as any other firm 'received. The question was raised in the power campaign here by Arthur Hawkes, of Toronto, and it was then that Mr, Maguire promised $1000 to Sault charities if the statement could be substantiated, Maguire's Statement Approached by a representative of The Mail and Empire tonight with regard to the Sault Daily Star edi- torial, Commissioner Alfred Maguire turned in his files to the issue of this publication on December 28th when he had answered the statement of Mr, wkes, At that time he had in turn'quoted from the nawspafigr Mr, Hawkes' allegation that he, Mr, Maguire, "had got a lot of insurance commisstons from the Hydro totalling in one year over $20,000." He had said then, "If this statement is cor- rect and Mr, Hawkes has been cor- rectly reported, then he is making a deliberate mis-statement of fact and I am prepared to give $1,000 to a Soo charity if he can prove that in one year I received over $20,000 in commissions. fro mthe Hydro." "Evidently," Mr, Maguire declar- "the Sault Star or Mr. Hawkes, or both, do not know, the difference be: tween insurance commissions and in- surange premiums. I cannot tell grou whether the figures quoted in newspaper as a statement made in the Legislature are correct or not, as they date back into history and long before I was appointed to the Hydro Commission, If they are correct, they are premiums collected by my firm, not commissions paid, and I do not think anyone will question the right of the firm to do business with the Commission at that time, Major (inspecting the morals of red troops for their baptism of fire)--Sam, what would you do it on parade you were suddenly con- fronted with the enemy?
