CRITICIZES IDEA Says Why Build Warships When They Can Be Borrowed (C-ble S.vvice to The Times by Vonad.an ress) London, Jan. 11,--Returning to its discussion of the Canadian Govern ment's proposal to replace its two present destroyers, the Patroit and Patr.cian, with new ships, the Week ly Truth today repents the statement which it describes as "officially in- spired from Ottawa." The statement says that the first of the new ships will be laid down immediately the Canadian .arliament approves 'the necessary timate, It adds that the Patrigian is still serviceable, 'so a second new destroyer will be ordered for later delivery, thus spreading the total outlay over two years, "This message dpes not definitely contradict what was sald in. the Tru h," the Weckly says, "The first destroyer, we are told, will be laid down as soon as parliament yotes the money, but nothing is said as to when she will be completed, As for the Patrician still being serv.ceable, all her sister ships in the British hay were scrapped in 1921, "Another point to Which the mes sage makes no gefcrence is that the Canad'an Department of Defense has asked the British Government to loan two destroyers to replace the old ones, while the proposed vessels are under construction, I confess that if I were a Canadian I would ask 'why build warships at all so long as you can borrow them'?"

All the trustees stand on equality as regards the chairmanship of the Board though some who have ser- ved for a number of years were chairmen of the former Town Board, However, both the status of the municipality and the Board itself have changed and the fact of having been chairmen before will probably not be taken as .a sort of ban agains election to the post under the new order, ) Trustee Drew, dean of the Board, and Trustee H, 8. Smith are both former chairmen, Trustee G. B, Norris, however, has never served as chairman and it is understood that he is this year's logi- cal candidate for the office if Trus- tee Mitchell refuses to stand for, re- election, hTe new committee to be appdint- ed will probably show some change in the chairmanships as suggested by Chairman Mitchell in his review of the Board's work at its final meet- ing in 1927. It is understood that some of the junior trustees are to be given a chance at the executive posts. When form-d, the management and finance commitice will be faced with the problem of further school ex- pansion during the present year. Additions to the Ritson Road school are on the schedule and there is a possibility that one entirely new school may have to be built, LAD INJURED WHEN HIT BY A TRUCK Albert Cox, 8 Years Old, Suffers Severe Bruises and Shaking-up Dr. A.
