PAGE TEN THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1929 {5 NOTOR INSURANCE RATES T0 ADVANGE Fifty Per Cent. Rise for "Legal Liability, 25 Per Cent. for Collision Toronto, Jan. 10.--Automobile insurance premium rates are to be {ncreased sharply--as much as 50 per cent, for legal ability and as much as 25 per cent for collision, following a meeting of the Cana- dian Automobile Insurance Under- writers' Association yesterday. The fnereases will be graded to differ- entiate between urban and rural areas. The medfing took place in {he Northern Ontario Building, 330 Bay street. Tt was stated that the ground on which the increased rates would be put into effect, were that the busi- ness under present conditions was unprofitable and that' Canadian rates are lower than those prevail- ing in the United States, Rise Imperative After a survey of present rates at the meeting, it was decided that "adjustments were imperative." It is learned authoritatively that the decialyn was reached to raise the rates Sections A and B, the per- sonal liability sections, by 50 per cent in urban districts, and some- what less in rural areas, that a 25 per cent increase be made in Section C, covering collision, and that Sections D and E, covering fire, transportation and theft risks, should also call for increases, To Issue Statement A committee was appointed to draft an official report, pending which Victor Evan Gray, president, and J. H. King, secretary, declin- ad 'to make any statement, Both declared, while refusing to confirm the figures furnished, that it was Loosen Up That Cold "With Musterole ve Musterole handy when Ww. . starts, It all of the advan- tis, sore throat, stiff neck, rheumatism, juinbage, croup, asthma, Better then a mustard plaster "simply impossible to give a fair synopsis of revised rates, much less to give them in detail, on short notice." . The committee appointed will prepare the schedule of rates to be embodied in an #mnouncement for later publication. Dollars And Cents What' the proposed increased rates mean in dollars and cents to the small car owner in cities may |be seen by comparing' the old and the mew rates charged for insur. ance on two classes of popular make, The old rates paid under clauses A, B, and C., are $11, $9 land $37 respectively, with the $25 deductible applying to the latter, a total of $57. Under the new rateg, the amounts will be $16.50, $13.50 and $46.25 respectively, a total of $76.25 or an actual in- crease of $19.25, The rates on other classes of cars will be in proportion, To illustrate, the owners of six-cylinder, four-wheel hrake coach now paying under clause A B and C a total of $89 gross, under the new rating will pay $117.25. Motor League to Inquire Inquiry will 'be made at once by the Ontario Motor League to as- {certain whether or not the motor car insurance rate increase is war- ranted. W, G. Robertson, secretary of the Motor League, said last night. BUYS QUEBEC HOTEL Quebee, Jan, 10,--The T.

The secretary of the Boston Fish Bureau has issued an announcement placing the num- ber of pounds of fish landed there during 1928 at 222,513,195, an in- crease over 1927 of more than 24,- 000,000 pounds. Returns from Grimsby are not yet in, , The increase in poundage landed is attributed to the fact that more steamers have been operating, and the large number of draggers or 'baby' trawlers, now in service, making quick trips to and from the grounds. FRESH FISH WITH OCEAN FLAVOR TO BE SOLD ONTARIO New System of Refrigeration Makes Fresh Product Available Toronto, Jan, 10.--By reason of a new refrigeration method expected to revolutionize cold storage and com- mercial shipment of perishables, fish as fresh as if just out of salt water will be sold in Toronto Saturday. For the first time in history eitizens will be able to purchase salt water fish with real ocean flavor, All this follows three years of research work by the Biological Board of Canada, Prof. A. G. Huntdman, of the Uni- versity of Toronto, announced yes- terday, . An entirely new process of we: ing has been 'developed which no longer takes away from the flavor, Its present application is confined to fish. Soon it may be used for poul- try, meats and food of many kinds. Prof. Hungsman, stated yesterday that the process would make oysters procurable all year round, No long- er will it be necessary to associate oysters with the months of the letter "RI "Storage" turkeys, geese and chick- ens will soon be considered as good or even better than freshly killed fowl, Equipment for handling poul- try has not yet been developed, of- ficials said, The process of rapid freezing pro- Father and Son Used Same Remedy Ontario Man Swears By Dodd's Kidney Pills A, C, Cooper Suffered With Dicadful Kidney Attacks Toronto, Ont, Jan. 9., (Spec- jal)--*'On different occasions have had dreadful attacks from the Kidneys," writes Mr, A.

Officials of the biological board be- lieve that the new system will re- volutionize the fish industry. Yhe research was started in an effort to revive the fortunes of the Mari. times. Prof, Huntsman and Prof. H.

HOT DEBATE OVER FISH PROTECTION -|Open Charges of Political In- terference Madde By Ontario Anglers Toronto, Jan. 10.--Open charges of political interference in the fish and game administration of the province vied with other allegations of de- partmental inefficiency in providing the chief features of the sitting which the Select Committee on Fish and Game of the Ontario Legislature held yesterday at the Parliament Buildings, Politics Sportsmen from Sault Ste. Marie to the Rideau Lakes and from the Mattagami River to the St, Lawrence attended the sitting, drawn there by reason of their concern over the depletion of the province's game fish resources, Their recommenda- tions proposed more game wardens, the prohibition of spearing and net- ting, and a general survey of pro- vincial waters with a view to re- stocking. The sportsmen also fnti- mated dissatisfaction with the ad- ministration of the provincial fish and game department, and intimated that politics played a part in its en- forcement program. Open Charges General innuendos in the speech of W. C. Warburton, president of the Ontario Anglers' Federation, became open charges when W, R., Griner of Hamilton took the floor and spoke in opposition to the sanction given by the Government to the spearing of fish in Hamilton Bay, Spearing had been discontinued in Georgian Bay and Lake Simcoe at the resid- ents' demand, he commented, and added his belief "that it would also have been prohibited in Hamilton if it were not for the patronage in- volved," "Too Much Politics" Continuing on the question of poli- ties in the fish and game laws en- forcement, Mr. Griner declared vig- orously that there was "too much of it." "I know of cases," he added, "where infractions of the law existed in my own home district and the law was not permitted to be carried out be- cause of political interference. Many a time I have known of a certain member of Parliament who has in- terceded on behalf of a culprit and has prevented that culprit from be- ing arrested. That is not right." PASSENGER HURT, "VANISHES AFTER SERIOUS CRASH Windsor, Jan, 10.--Sandwich and Windsor police today were searching for some individual, idéntity wun- known, who left blood and frag- ments of flesh on the shattered wind- shield of a car driven by Thomas Spanton, Toronto, who was arrested as a drunken driver at 3 o'clock this morning. When Spanton was picked up by Sandwich police in his car, his con- dition was described as that of com- plete intoxication. The windshield of the machine was broken and frag- ments of flesh on the shattered glass indicated someone had been thrown through it. Questioned by the police, Spanton, the officers say, recalled that some one had been riding with him, and that there had been an accident of some kind, that his companion had been thrown through the windshield, and subsequently "gone away." The accident, Spanton said, had happened "by the bridge". An ex- tensive search of the entire border district has failed to locate the per: son who left part of himself on the broken windshield.

The fog covered all the London-Continental routes, stretching more than 300 miles from London to Cologne in the east, Amsterdam in the north, and ris in the south. Only one air liner from Paris succeeded in reaching Croyden to- day.

Cherbourg, France, Jan, 10 -- Be- cause of a "pea soup" fog in the' Channel, the liner Majestic was un- able to enter Cherbourg Roads today. She is not likely to sail before noon | tomorrow, and as a consequence 600 | passengers were marooned here over-| night. | N. 8. EDUCATOR DIES Watertown, Mass, Jan, 10.
