Face wn THE OSHAWA DAIL\ HMeS, Uh UAY, JANUARY 9, 1929 Cincinnati Surgeons Take Toy Motorcycle From Chila's Throat Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan, 9, = Sur- gcons_ performed a successful oper- ation on Frank Brooks, an 18- months-old baby of Wasco, W, Va, here, and remoyed a toy motor- eycle from the child's throat which he swallowed 18 days ago, The toy had lodged itself in the child's throat and his condition, which on several occasions was erit- ical, prevented an operation until V'edne dry, The surgeons who per- formed the operations would make no comment except that they had removed the toy, The baby had to overcome puneu- monia before the surgeons would attempt to remove the obstruction, The pneumonia developed as a nat- ural consequence of the clogged condition of the baby's throat, which physicians said amounted to partial strangulation, During the 18 days liquid foods were the boy's only nourishment, ' Frank's home is at Wasco, W.V,, It was there that he swallowed the toy while eating a prize package ol pop-corn, od CAUGHT IN N.Y, "SPEAKEASY" RAIDS Police Reserves and Nearly 500 Sailors Battle in Dance Hall New York, Jan, 9.--New York con- tinued to feel the effect of having a new police head Sunday when Com- missioner Grover Whalen's gendarmes shoved 55 men and women into the headquarters' lineup. Most of them came from a series of Saturday night and Sunday morn- ing speakeasy and "resort" raids pur- suant to an instruction to "keep the underworld on the jump." The two largest raids were on the St. Nicholas Dance Hall, in 69th street, which developed into a battle between police reserves and nearly 500 sailors, and a sortie into a third- floor dining hall of Jannsen's Old Hofbrau, where a "stag" party was in progress in honor of Alexander Silverstein, a furrier, The guests of honor, five women Phone 193 W. J. SARGANT Yard--80 Bloor Street KE. Orders Promptly Delivered: ji hi TIME TABLES entertainers, and 52 other men were discharged by Magistrate Hyman Bushel in Jefferson Market Court, but a sixth woman, Edna Myers, 23, was sentenced to three months in the workhouse. The dance hall raid furnished a brief spectacular scene when more than 100 of the ejected sailors rioted in the street outside, demanding their money back. They were dispersed by a free use of nightsticks. Thirty-one girls, "hostesses" in the dance hall, were held in $200 bail each on char- ges of disorderly conduct. No progress was claimed on the Arnold Rothstein murder case, which has faded into the background dur- ing the "anti-gangster" drive. A re- port that the estate of the slain gambler, to be recorded in Surrogate Court Monday by his exccutors, would show that his holdings had a potential value of $25,000,000 and an actual value of between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000, revived lagging public in- terest in the case. Rothstein, it was said, would have had $2,000,000 more at his death had he lived to collect his $600,000 win- nings and $1,400,000 he put up at odds 'v.ith unidentified stakeholders on Hoover's election, He died on election day in Poly- clinic Hospital of a bullet wound re- ceived 48 hours previous in the Park Central Hotel.

J. B. M. Baxter, pre- mier of the province. A suggestion along these lines had been made to the Government some time ago, the Premicr said, but it was then decided that no action would be taken until the Liquor Control Act had been in force for at least one year. Dr. Baxter sa'd that the new ar- rangement would not interfere with the plan now in effect regarding fines, namely, that fines collected in cities and towns in the pro- vince where the information was laid and the arrest made by local police officers, should be retained by the city or town collecting them, while in cases where the prosecution fol- lowed action by the Provincial Po- lice, the fines would be paid into the treasury of the province. The Premier pointed out that in some counties, the cost of maintain- ing prisoners was less than 60 cents per dav, and in these cases just the { actual cost per day would be borne by the Provincial Government. In cases where the cost exceeded 60 cents, only the maximum allowance of 60 cents per day would be paid. WHEAT IS HIGHER ON STRENGTH IN ENGLISH MARKET (By Canadian Press) Chicago, 111. Jan. 9--Wheat prices went upward here early today, help- ed by strength shown by the wheat market at Liverpool. In this con- nection reports were current that the Canadian Growers' Pool had sold large quantities of wheat to Great Britain. Opening 2% to 3c to 5c up, Chicago. Wheat later 'reacted somewhat. Corn was inclined to sag except at the outset, starting unchanged to 34c higher and then showing a slight decline.

It suggested the prohibition month, It suggested the prohibition of clearances to vessels or vehicles of all kinds carrying a cargo of lig- uor to the United States, contrary to the laws of that country, Such action would not involve an amend- ment to the present Anti-smuggling Treaty, and, as it was also suggest. ed by the Parliamentary Committee during the session of 1026, it might meet with the approval of the Dominion Parliament, It has also' heen intimated that the United States represcntatives will ask that Canada permit extra- dition of Canadians who violate the prohibition law of the Republic hy smuuzgling liquor across the line, While there is no intimation here of what attitude the Government would take toward such a proposal, it is likely that very careful consia- eration would be necessary hefore such action was taken, No doubt re- presentatives from the departments of Justice in both countries will he present during the conference to advise as to the effect of such ac- tion, Just how far the Government ean go in prohitinz the exnory of lignor from Canada to a foreign eonuntry, is perhaps onestionahie. It has heen suegested that, so lone. as the Dominion permits the mam facture of lHanor within its hord- ers, it has not the right to nrohihit its export. This is a point which may come up for disenssion when the renresentatives of Canada and the. 'nited States meet here next month, EMPLOYMENT IS LESS THAN USUAL Statistics Show Only 4 Per Cent, Idle at End of November . Ottawa, Jan. 9--There is less un- employment among members of trade unions in Canada this winter than last. The reports of trade union locals are received by the Dominion | Departmen of -LaMor, They come from 1,672 labor organizations with a united membership of 186,528 per- sons, Of this total membership 4 per cent. were idle on the last day of November, as compared with 52 on the correspanding date of the before. The reports, however, show- ed the seasonal increase in. unem- ployment as on October 31, only 3.1 per cent was unemployed. The summary given out bv the de-. partment adds that the partial ces- sation of building and construction operations, due to seasonal dulliness, affected the trade union situation to a marked degree during November, especially in Manitoba, British Col- umbia, Alberta and Ontario. The un- employment reported in the metal trades in Quebec, particularly among railway carmen, accounted largely for the increase in idleness reported dur- ing November over the previous month in that Province, The reduc- tions in activity registered hy New Brunswick unions over Octoher were very slight, while in Nova Scotia no change in the situation occurred. Saskatchewan was the only Province to -egister improvement, and this was nominal only. When a conipar- ison is made with the returns for November, 1927, all Provinces record- ced heightened activity during the month under review, while the reduc- year| "LETT, NICHOLLS AND | HALLITT Real Estate Inkurance and Loans, Phone 32514 11 King St, East, Oshawa tions in employment reported from Manitcha were very slight.
