"HEAVY FINES FOR JITNEY MEN WHO STILL DEFY LAW "New Charges Being Laid While Distress Warrants Threaten Hamilton, July 10--Local jitney drivers who persist in defying the law and operating their vehicles are meeting with plenty of embarrass- ment. * Yesterday in Police Court fines were levied upon them totalling over $2,000, and today the police de- livered an ultimatum to the jitney drivers that unless these fines were paid forthwith distress warrants would be issued to force eollection. Some 6f the 60 jitney drivers fined vesterday were assessed $8) cach upon being convicted of four separ- ate charges of operating without a license wenty-seven more charges will be heard in Police Court tomor- row concerning alleged offenses on Saturday. Another series of charges will be heard later in the week against those jitney drivers who operated yesterday and today. All in all, the jitney drivers are finding that their determination to test ir case in a higher court is an expensive proceeding, especially as these charges and fines are likely Telephone Grover 7247 At Our Expense STANDARD BRI Co., Limited Manufacturers oY GOOD RED STOCK BRICK to continue as long as operate. ls Fares The Hamilton Street Railway Company today made a graceful con- cession to the older school children oi the city when it decided that children between the ages of 12 and 17 vears should be permitted to buy 10 'tickets for 25 cents, instead of heing obliged to pay 7 cents, as the Ontario Railway Board awarded the company the right to do. The fares for school children under 12 years of age were fixed by the board at 10 tickets for 25 cents, but Mayor Bur- ton and Alderman Aitchison made representations to the company, with the result that George Waller today announced the concession had been granted to the older school children. Such tickets are to be used only be- tween 830 and 9.30 o'clock in the forenoon and between 3.30 and o'clock in the afternoon. It is estimated that approximately 10,000 school children will benefit from the action of the company. Another Complication Another unforseen complication which has arisen in connection with the right of the Hamilton Street Railway to an exclusive franchise in Hamilton has to do with bus service to the Mountain ,a congested area which will be annexed on Sept. 1 and thus become part of Hamilton. A private bus company now serves both the east and the west end of the Mountain. The Street Railway Com- pany made it clear today that it would stand upon its rights as re- gards the annexed portion of the Mountain and would insist on giving that district an exclusive bus ser- vice. The street Railway Company, the jitneys 500 Greenwood Ave, Toronto, Ont, THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JULY 12, 1928 however, would have no right to cperate its busses in the township section of the Mountain, and the two districts are so interrelated, that it is considered doubtiul' if a. bus serv- ice would pay unless the operating company could serve the entire fiel Cfficials of the independent company have expressed a willingness to co- operate, and it is believed that the matter will be amicably adjusted. What residents of the Mountain de- sire more than busses is a street railway service, extending in a loop over the entire district as for south | as Fennell Avenue. The Wentworth County Council today endorsed a Jesition from the Peel County Council that the Provin- cial Government be asked to include the Toronto-Hamilton Highway in the Provincial system of highways and thus relieve the local munici- 5] palities of paying the balance of the inted debenture charges. It was t by a cut that this highway was built commission and should now be given | 4 the same status as other trunk high- ways in the Provincial system. BRITAIN PARTIAL TO NATIVE WINES Possibilities of important ex- pansion for the native wine indus try of Ontario are declared to be impending as a result of the im- pression which Ontario products have made in a limited way upon British markets. Important Bri- tish interests have become interest- ed in Ontario as a source of wine supply, and a party having influ- enial 'connections is due to arrive in the province during the next few days to investigate the situa- tion. : Included amongst those who are to arrive will be President Woodruff of the firm of Edward Young and Company, one of the largest British wine concerns, Canadian wine is favored in Great Britain by a preferential tariff of one dollar per gallon, Australian wine enjoys the same treatment and last year's imports from that country totalled five million gal- lons. While the tariff is in Canada's favor, an objection to Ontario's wine is a taste which the English trade describes as 'foxy,' due, it fs helieved, to the fact that sthe grapes In this province were fath- ered originally hy wild grapes. The larger producers, however, have succeeded in eliminating this taste, and it is hoped that a new and important market for their product may be opened up in Bri- tain.

BOARD LIMITED Midland, Ontari REDUCED PRICE FOR NEWSPRINT IS SEEN Daily Mail Says Cut Due to Over-Production CRISIS FORESEEN Bigger Papers in Great Britain are Looked For London, July 11.--A reduction in the price of newsprint is expected, ue to over-production, the Daily Mail announced Tuesday. The paper says that the Empire paper mills at Greenhithe in Kent, which supply it and several other London journals, are prepared to offer part of their next year's output at $65 per ton on delivery. In this connection the Daily Mail says: "Persistent over-production is fast bringing a crisis in the manu- facture of newsprint. It has been estimated that the world's printing presses can use only five out of every six reels of newsprint manufactured, for output exceeds consumption by 20 per cent. The enormous increase in the production of Canadian paper mills is the main cause of this. Figures published by the Canadian Newsprint Service Bureau show that Canada's annual output is now over 2,000,000 tons per annum, which is 40 per cent more than the United States. "Since the American market he- came saturated, plans are now being made to ship Canada's excess produc- tion to England and offer it here at a price somewhat below $65 per ton, which is $5 less than the present price of ordinary newsprint in the English market." The Daily Mail, which is owned by Lord Rothermere, predicts slashing cuts in the price of newsprint and says that the profit of newspaper shareholders will increase and. that readers will get bigger newspapers, particularly. in provincial Britain, SAILORS SENT TO PRISON FOR THEFT Montreal, July 11.--John Jackson and Robert Cornes, two sailors of the S.8.

Here we are trying to make out a good case for Ontario's delightful summer wea- ther, so that people fromr the Unit- ed States will come here in vaster numbers than have been. Then along comes St. Thomas with a story about a thermometer that was leaning up against a greenhouse, and showing the mer- cury hopping around 102 in the ¢hade, Ever since Jumbo got himself killed in St. Thomas the place has inherited an insatiable desire for the superlative in unusual things. Why couldn't the person who was scampering about looking at thermometers have picked on one in 2 more fayored place--for fin- stance at the station where the steel ralls make it cool, or in some moulding shop where they never feel. the heat? We fear that our bracing north- ern climate je going to suffer a serious flop from such publicity. If our tourist traffic gets shot to piece- es, St. Thomas is going to get the blame.

EE POLAND REJECTS DRAFT TREATY Lithuania Settlement Plan Is Turned Down at Warsaw Warsaw, Poland, July 11.--The Polish Government has rejected a draft treaty submitted by Lithu- ania for settlement of the various difficulties existing between the two countries which has been under negotiation for some time. The Lithuanian project, as made public here, says that the question of the ownership of the city of Vil- na still remains open and it is this point which a Polish note delivered today refuses to take into consider- |~ ation. The note was delivered by the Polish charge d'affairs in Berlin to the Lithuanian representatives at the conferences hetween the two countries and says in part: "The Polish Government took cognizance with deep astonishment of the treaty proposal which tne Lithuanian Government presented as one to serve as a basis for a genera] understanding by both ma- PAGE NINE , BIGFEATURES /' The HARDEST Wax? 2.
