HE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, APRIL 24, 19. hairman Conciliation Board Judge Denton is Appointed C GIVEN 825 FINE ON A CHARGE OF RECKLESS DRIVING Keith Craggs Pleads Guilty to Offence--Arose from Accident A fine of $25 with $26.45 costs, was levied this morning by Magis-|* trate A, F. Hind on Keith Craggs, who pleaded guilty to a charge of reckless driving. The alternative was thirty days in jail. The charge, which 'was laid during March, arose out of an accident on Simcoe street south, when Craggs was involved in an accident that damaged a car owned by M. Hal- pern, Toronto, and also snapped off two gasoline pumps of the Ontario Motor Sales, Halpern's car was quite badly damaged, being thrown against the curb of the Metcalie street corner. It is understood that a settlement of the damages is being made. During the hearing of the case this morning a sharp interchange of argument and expletive occurred be- tween D. A. J. Swanson, appearing for Crages, and Mr. Goodman, of Toronto, who has been retained by Halpern, Mr. Swanson claimed that Goodman had no right in the court, which was trying a criminal charge, since Goodman was not appearing for either the Crown Attorney or the City of Oshawa, and his interest was solely in the amount . of damages which might be obtained by his client. Mr, Goodman, replied heat- edly that he had Crown Attorney McGibbon's permission to appear in the court, whereupon a lively bar- rage of fireworks was exchanged a- cross the solicitors' table. © Finaly Magistrate Hind declared that the police court would have nothing whatever to do with the damages in the case in any way, and refused to make any recommendations along this line," as Mr. Goodman had re- quested, EMPLOYMENT IN CITY FAIRLY GOOD Although the Bureau Official Says Demand for Labor This Week is Slow The employment situation in this city continues fair, says Manager Hamilton of the local office of the Employment Service of Canada. While the demand for labor this week has been slow, the latter part of last week produced the most ac- tivity so far this year. Carpenters were most in demand, with painters and skilled workmen in the auto in- dustry following closely. Carpenters were wanted in 'lots' of from one to seven, and requests were also received this morning of these men, The largest. number requested was wanted by the Jackson-Lewis Co., Toronto, who are constructing a building on Mary street. The em- ployment situation is keeping ahead of last year, Mr, Hamilton informs The Oshawa Daily Times, and ex- pects a fairly good summer, although unskilled labor seems to be an un-|' desired quantity.

' GETTING READY FOR SUMMER ACTIVITIES (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, April '23, -- Al- though it has not been reported that any hardy youngster has been in for the year's first swim yet, conversation has naturally turned along that line, Bowmanville pre- sents many facilities for fine swim- ming, boating and fishing, not to mention numerous other water and summer sports, Bowmanville's beach and dock for swimming purposes, although not of the highest perfection, are quite suitable for water sports. The beagh presents a wide expanse of sandy shore while there are also ample chances for swimming in the deep from off the dock. Besides being a splendid recrea- tion resort, a large number of sum- mer cottages line the beach for a mile or two each way from the pier. These are of a rustic type .and speak well for the resort, Every one is occupied during the summer months, ' HEAVY FOG HAMPERS TRAFFIC ON ROADS Bowmanville, April 23.--Bow- manville was visited hy a heavy fog late last night which was a de- cided factor in causing accidents. number of minor collisions, and reports from outlying districts that roads were had added to the uncer- tainty of travelling. At one time the fog was so dense as to not per- mit one seeing more than five feet in front, It cleared, however, in a few hours, and traffic on the high- ways was resumed. BUI NING PERMITS OF $31,000 ISSUED Service Station and Ware- house for Barrie Street Gasoline stations will be the most prominent feature of Osha- wa building this summer if the present rate of constraction keeps up.

This will consist of a warehouse in which will be contained all the equipment. Four oil tanks are being built, for which a permit was obtained this morning for $4.- 000. A permit for $3,009 was taken out for the warehouse. ~ M. C. Millman took out a per- mit for $1,200 for a new residence to be erected at 459 Mary Street. R. H. Bishop is the architect and E.

ANCIENT HOMES ARE REMODELLED TO TAKE TOURISTS Startling Changes in Eng- lish Countryside Result of Demand It is only in the last few years that thé English people have be- gun to realize that tourism can be made as remunerative a business as the coal, steel and other well-estab- lished industries. To make a country attractive to money-spending tourists there are three essential conditions: (1) Beautiful and historically interest- ing sites; (2) comfortable and rea- sonably priced hotels, and (3) well-organized travelling system. England possesses the first: when it is not raining this coun- try can boast of as many attrac- tive sites as any other country in Europe. The other two conditions, however, until recently have been sadly neglected. With the exception of a few high class and expensive hotels in London, the traveller had to put up with discomfort in the country, old-fashioned hotels, without mod- ern sanitation and with only one or two baths for 30 to 40 rooms. Mutton, cabbage and potatoes, with occasional roast beef and York- shire pudding (on Sunday) were the only items one could find on the bill of fare of any hotel out- side London, This situation fis changing and an inland tour can be made with utmost enjoyment, Open Old Castles as Hotels In the provinces, especially in those districts which might appeal to the traveller, small but cou- fortahle hotels have been opened. People are attracted by historical places, A small hotel, the Lygo.a Arms, at Broadway (Worcester- shire), proved to he a paying pro- position. The example of that ho- tel owner has been followed by many others, Old mansions in the dating from the time of Queen Elizabeth of Queen Anne were sold to newly formed concerns, who installed bathrooms and cen- tral heating and transformed then into hotels suitable for tourists with moderate means, These old mansions, situated in large parks, are probably the most attractive countryside hotels one can imagine, The appearance of the ancestral castle is maintained; in many cases even in the distinguished looking old butler has heen handed over by the titled owners. The visitor enjoys all the comforts of a mod- ern, up-to-date hotel for $50 to $76 a week, ihcluding all meals. Even the inevitable mutton and suet pudding taste better when served on family plate dating from the Seventeenth Century. Conditions Better Travelling conditions have heen improved considerably, «+ Railroads have started catering to the tour- ist. The Great Western Company alone runs about 200 tours in the course of a summer. Luxurious fest express trains run three or four times a day from London to various picturesque spots. The "Flying Scotsman" connects Lon- don with Edinburgh in less than eight hours, while the Cornish Ri- viera Express and the Atlantic Ex- press, connecting London with Penzance and Torquay, have in- creased their speed, averaging 45 miles an hour. The number of the very comfortable and luxuri- ous Pullman cars, as well as the famous all-glass observation cars, has been greatly increased. Land cruises are organized during the summer in the form of inclusive tours by rail and road, the tickets including meals and hotel accom- modation. The prices vary from $60 for a six-day tour to $125 for a 13-day tour. ger steamers conveying tourists from the coast to the many attrac- tive islands such as the Isle of Wight, Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man, have replaced the un- comfortable, old-fashioned paddle steamers. Ideal for Motoring England is undoubtedly the ideal country for motoring. This advantage has been neglected and charabancs take tourists from Lon- don to interesting parts through- out the country for a reasonable sum. In aviation England is still be- hind other European countries. There is a daily service connecting London with Paris, Brussels, Am- sterdam, Cologne and Berlin, but there is -not a single regular line between the English airport, Croy- don, and other cities in the United Kingdom. The fares between Lon- don and Paris have been consid- erably reduced by the introduction of a first and second-class service, but the land and sea route is still the most popular. The port authorities are un- doubtedly the most courteous in the world. No irksome questions are put to the bona fide. tourist, and the customs finspectors are very lenient provided the traveller is honest and declares all dutiable articles. Silks, cigars and alco- hol are subject to heavy duty. Yet, if the traveller declares to the inspector honestly the quantities of such articles he introduces into the country, it is more than like'y that he will get them through duty free, provided that the inspector is satisfied that they are mot for sale Never try, however, to fool a British customs officer. ~ It is too expensive and many a traveller has a country landed in jail.

The Editor, 4 h 1928 Oshawa Daily Tiincs, Oshawa, Ontario. Dear Sir: » I wish to correct a scrious error, which occurs in the feport in your issue of Monday, April the 23rd, in connection with a case for non pay- ment of wages against W, H. Mar tin, local contractor. No statement was made as to the General Motors taking over the liabilities of the Company, and in particular no gen- cral statement was made as to the financial standing of this firm. You might give this letter the same degree of publicity as was given to the originzl report. Yours truly ALLEN F. AXXIS.

Who remembers, back in his boy- hood, when the height of daring was to walk under a horse?--De- troit News. SELECTED CHAIRMAN CONCILIATION BOARD JUDGE DENTON of Toronto has been chosen hy W. E. Davis representing the Com- pany and James Simpson, rep- resenting the workers, as Chair- man of the Conciliation Board formed to bring about a defin- ite settlement of recent General Motors strike. KING STREET FAST RESIDENTS OPPOSE SERVICE STATION Declare Its Erection Will Be Violation of Spirit of By-law Passed A proposal to erect a large auto- mobile service tadon at Ritson Road and King street has arous- ed a number of residents of that district, who claim that it is a contravention of the spirit of the restricted residential area bylaw passed last year, declared D. A, J. Swanson, alderman for the south- east ward in the city councii, in an interview with The Oshawa Daily Times today, "The proposal," Mr. Swanson explained, *is to erect a service station on the south-west corner on the property comprising the residence of Ex-Mayor John Gib- son and the vacant lot on the cor- ner owned by another citizen of the city. This been pur- chased by a representative of an interested company, through May- or R. D. Preston, acting as real estate agent in the transaction." "According to Mr, Swanson, the vacat lot was formerly owned by Mr. Gibson, who sold it to anoth- er gentleman with the restriction that it was to be used for entire- ly residential purpos Thus, when the council last year passed the bylaw restricting certain areas on King street east as resi- detial areas was decided unnec- essary to include this property, And, since there is no other avail- able vacant land on King street for some distace west of Ritson Road, the bylaw was only put in- to effect for h part of King street east of Ritson Road. Dut, ow that one party has purchased both the vacant lot and the resi- dence of Mr. Gibson, Mr. Swan- son comments, he automatically obtains control of any restrictions laid down in the sale of the lot, and may go ahead and build a service station, "He would be within the Jetter of the bylaw, but entirely adverse to the spirit behind it, for in this area are some of the finest residences in the eify," he concluded. Mr. Swanson intimated that this question may be introduced at a special meeting of the city coun- cil Thursday evening, which is being held for the purpose of passing resolutions regarding sewers, ete., compelted in 1927. has GIVEN FAREWELL PARTY BY FRIENDS ON COLLEGE HILL A very pleasant surprise party was given Mr. and Mrs. Fred Poil, Tresane street, College Hill, Satur- day evening, when thirty frieuds and neighbors. gathered to give them a farewell before they leave for their mew home on Warren avenue. . Mr. 2nd Mrs. Poil were presented with a fern, fern stand, and a clock. Mrs. Bellingham, who read the ad- dress expressed the hope that every tick of the clock through the day would remind them of their many friends in College Hill. The evening was spent in danc- ing, and music. i The only thing a man wants, af- ter he gets all the money, he needs, is more money. -- Chicago's Daily News. GRAPHIG ACCOUNT OF MONS ENTRY (Continued from page 1) Witness, "It certainly was." "When did you hear that Mohs was going to be captured?" "I never heard it." There was a long examination of the witness by Mr. Regan as to the whereabouts of the detached com- pany of the Princess Pats, when Mr. Justice Rose intervened and requested the counsel to accept the answer of the witness. His Lord- ship asked how it could be possible for the witness to agree to some- thing of which he already had said he had no knowledge. Resistance Was Mild On re-examination by Mr. Tilley, the witness explained that resist- ance put up by the Germans in the latter days of the war was mild compared with former years. Major W, Grafftey was the com- pany commander of D. Company, 42nd Battalion. He sald that at 10:30 a.m. on November 10, his company marched out of Jemappes and on arriving at company head- quarters of the Princess Pats he saw the company commander in the basement of the brewery. In that area, the company was under in- termittent machine gun and shell fire. In conformity with orders the men took cover, while scouting parties were sent out to get defin- ite information regarding enemy dispositions, At midnight, the en- tire D, Company of 42 was estab. lished on the Mons Boulevard, ths last time the unit had been under fire was at four thirty in the after- noon. Heard Minor Engagement At one fifteen the following morning, the witness heard what sounded like a minor engagement from the Place Du Canada, but it was only Lieut. Handley's platoon throwing hombs at the German ma- chine gun position located there, Later four prisoners were brought in and it was believed they had sur- rendered when they saw themselves cut of, At daybreak, which was between 6:30 and 7 a.m., company headquarters was changed. On pro- ceeding through the centre of the city, Major Grafftey was met by the president of the Chambre De Commerce, who was accompanied by Colonel Ewing C. 0., of the 42nd Battalion, About 7:45 a.m. the Armistice message was received hy the battalion signal officer. Major Grafftey notified his plotoons on the outskirts of Mons, in the after- noon of November 10, his company had no casualties after four thirty p.m. Going through Mons was easy. Didn't Know of Deaths To Mr. Regan, Major Grafftey confirmed the hour of relieving No. 4 Company of the Princess Pats. He did not know at the hour the casualties in Battalion occurred on November 10, The major"s evidence was recalled and practically com- pleted to a considerable extent, "C" Company had got into Mons about two o'clock in the morning of November 11, "A' Company had had some fighting; *B'" Company was in reserve and entered later, He emphasized there was no fight- ing by his platoons in the eity, nor, as far he knew, was there any fight- ing at all. He remembered two men killed about 2.30 in the afternoon of Nov. Major Grafftey confirmed that there was heavy machine gun resistance until 5.30 p. mx. on Nov, 10. Cobourg, April 23.--The Curriz libel. case went into jts second round here this afternoon, Colonel Archer Duguid of Ottawa, the last witness called by Frank Regan, de- fense counsel, stepped down from the box at 5.06, and at exactly 5.06.15 W. Norman Tilley, K.C., General Sir Arthur Currie's coun- sel, had Colonel A. A. Magee of Montreal in Colonel Duguid's place. and the testimony for the plaintiff was under way. Colonel Magee's evidence pro- vided one of the high lights of the case to date, inasmuch as it in- cluded his presentation of original Armistice order received by Cana- dian Corps from First British Army Headquarters at 6.30 the morning of Nov. 11, 1918, Gruelling Cross-Examination Mr. Regan gave Colonel Magee 2 gruelling cross-examination, chai- lenged the propriety of certain pen- cil over-writing of the *'receipt hour" in the document, and very pointedly asked the former staff officer if a notation he had placed on the message three or four months ago had been placed there after he, the witness, knew of the action General Currie was bringing against the defendants, W. T. R. Preston and F. W. Wilson. Another feature of today's hear- ing was the testimony adduced from records that had the Cana- dians sent oh the 10th of Novem- ber reached the objectives set for them in their operation order they would have been beyond Mons that BUC Representatives of Two Parties are Confident of Amicable Settlement Official Announcement Made from Ottawa Last Night -- Board Will Meet Almost Immediately to Endeavor to Bring About a Definite Settlement of Recent Strike at General Motors Official announcement was made from Ottawa last night to the effect that Judge Denton of Toronto had been agreed upon to act as chair- man of the Board of Conciliation formed to bring about a definite settlement of the recant strike at General Motors. Negotiations for the selection of a chairman were carried on by W. E. Davis repre- senting the company and James Simpson representing the workers by correspondence and practically no difficulty arose in coming to aa agreement, Both parties feel wall satisfied that a fair and just set- tlement will be reached. As soon as Judge Denton re- celves official.-papers as to his ap- pointment from Ottawa, which will likely be today or tomorrow, the Board will lose no time in meeting to consider the dispute, Mr. Simpson speaking to The Oshawa Daily Times today express- ed pleasure with the appointment and believed that the result of the Board's deliberations would be agreeable to company and men alike. He sald the Board would meet almost immediately, night instead of until daylight to make Jjectives good. Line of German Defense Colonel Duguid--speaking on this occasion, not as the head of tue Historical Section of Records Branch at Ottawa but from his own personal knowledge of the Mons situation as gleaned while aeting in the cap :Gty of G.S.0,, Third Canadian Divigion--inferrea that the line of least German re- sistance at Mons had been front- ally, instead of by the north and south, where the terrain lent itse.t to. natural defenses, and by which routes, the "defense claim, the Canadians should have gone to capture Mons "without the loss ot a single life." F, W, Wilson, proprietor of The Port Hope Guide, in which was published the alleged libellous ar- ticle of which the Canadian Corpps Commander complains, got a stiff grilling from Mr, Tilley today. On Satuday Mr. Wilson first told the court that a discussion he had had with Sir Arthur Currie had been "without prejudice." Later in the day he reversed his attitude, To- day he admitted to Mr, Tilley that the letter he sent to the General, inviting a conference, had *"with- out prejudice" marked upon. ir, Witness claimed that he had meant "without prejudice" to his side. Wilson also told the court that he came back from his conference with the General and had consulted Mr, Preston. The latter had been willing for him to withdraw, but he would not. "I wanted the pri- vate soldiers," sald Wilson, "to have their share of the glory of taking Mons, They certainly were entitled-to it." Under Mr. Tilley's cross-exami- nation, witness denied the articlp complained of had before the cable despatch in The Globe, claimed to be part of the basis for it, had appeared. Mr, Tilley, however, did get from him the admission that of all the re- turned men he claimed to have talked with when the article was penned he could name only one definitely. having to wait the ob- FINED $200 AND COSTS FOR HAVING LIQUOR ILLEGALLY For having liquor in a public place, Mrs, Sophie Kobernick was this morning fined $200 and costs in city police court. The liquor, twelve bottles of whiskey and a quantity of alcohol, was ordered confiscated to the use of the crown.
