'Such was the main moral glean- ed by a reporter from an inter- view with J. L. Logie, the men who had courage enough to admit he had seen Opopogo--that strange sea monster, 20 feet long, with the head of a sheep and which travels through water at the speed of an automobile. Other men had seen this queer creature before, but they quailed at the thought of telling it to their fellows. It remained for a man who had never touched liquor, who had never even smoked, who was former Mayor and last, but not least, who was the son of a Presbyterian minister, to tell the story again in Toronto. The Globe representative had the privilege of hearing Mr, Logie's extraordinary narrative in the of- fice of George Wilke, K.C., and where, more than in a law office, could one expect to hear state- ments of the mbst punctilious exactitude? The story goes on: "Approaching the interview with a certain feeling of cynicism the reporter emerged with his old-time belief in Santa Claus fully restored and never doubting George had killed Such was the convincing integrity of Mr. Logie." Mr. Logie is the manager of the Okanagan Land Development Com- pany whose property nestles on the shore of the Okanagan Lake, B.C. In 1927, he explained while motoring from Okanagan Centre to Summerland a distance of 50 miles, and while that Saint the dragon. and grandchildren noticed inspection rising some 18 inches body.

PORT Cc REPORT FARMERS READY TO ACCEPT NEW AGREEMENT Given Ten Mill Reduction in Tax Rate and Other Exemptions (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Mar. 13.--The Court of Revision for Whitby will meet in the council chambers tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock to consider the new assessment submitted to the farmers whose property lies within the limits of the municipal. ity, The first sitting of the court was held last Monday morning ana it wag decided to adjourn until to- morrow in order to allow the farm- ers to consid | posals. According to an unconfirmed re- port, the farmers are likely to ac- cept the council's proposition re- placing the old assessment agree- ment providing certain modifica- tions are made. They are willinp to have a straight ten mill tax re- duction in lieu of the former tax rate, whereby they paid taxes for ordinary purposes alone and a rate mn no debentures other than con- olidated debentures issued since 1902, It is also stated that the landowners find the assessment of their land too high but desire ex- emption on barns and farm build- ings other than their private dwell- ings which they are willing to have assessed upon the same valuation as other residences in the munici- pality., Hitherto the valuation of farm homes had been less. It is anticipated that the change in the old agreement will effeet an in- creased revenue for the municipal- ity. SPAIN SEETHING BERIND HER MARK Leaders Say Fall of Dicta- * torship Only Matter of Time the a 's pro- Madrid, March 13--Spain rests to- day in a state of pseudo-tranquillity which is as fragile as it is artificial. Both the fragility and artificiality of political peace here were recently re- vealed in the revolt of the Ciudad Real garrison and the Valencia near- uprising which failed, only by an ex- tremely narrow margin, to touch off a general rebellion against the dicta- torship of Primo de Rivera, The Ciudad Real artillerymen were subdued; They "came out" before Cartagent, Valencia, Barcelona -- in fact, virtually the whole Mediterran- can litteral--could fall in line to sup- port them. Senor Sanchez Guerra, powerful leader of the Conservative party in Spain and chieftain of the planned revolt, surrendered at Valen- cia. A storm at sea, which delayed his arrival by two days, had thrown the revolt off schedule and confused the sub-officials of the "plot." Dictatorship Margin By that marrow thread of circum- stance the dictatorship in Spain was given another lease of life, And with what is perhaps pardonable assurance General Primo de Rivera informed the correspondents a few days later that Ciudad Real and Valencia had been isolated incidents and that all is. quiet and well in Spain. But even at that very moment the Official Gazette was publishing 2 new governmental decree, signed by King Alfonso XIII. A decree decisively ending the benevolency which has marked the Rivera dictatorship for over five years and as unquestionably introducing the methods of Mussolini into the Spanish peninsula, Today freedom of the press and freedom of speech are outlawed as much in Spain as they have been for a number of years in Italy. This last step was followed by 2 statement by General de Rivera in "Le Noticiero," the official weekly wherein he justified his orders to the Patriotic Union and the "Soman- tenes," or Citizens' Armed Guard, urging them to exercise personal vio- lence if necessary against critics and enemies of the regime. "My order should surprise no one," said Primo, "My dictatorship has already accom- plished the most difficult part of its mission, but the most delicate part of crowning its wotk by assuring its permanence must still be done. I am not disposed to tolerate being ruined by unscrupulous enemies." He added that there was nothing shameful in the denunciation of "traitors" and "unscrupulous plotters." Here is truly the voice of a new ruler and a new regime in Spain, It is not what Spain has heard since Primo de Rivera came to power in Septem- ber, 1923. But why this sudden change in 2 man who has been Eu- rope's most amiable dictator? Why this swift and melodramatic tighten- ing of the reins? Why, especially, if this latest revolt was but a flash in the pan which the Madrid Govern- ment contends it was? It is said that the moment must soon come when a parting of the ways between Primo and the King will be as essential to the well-being of the monarchy in in as to the welfare of the peop ves. erhaps for this reason, more than any other, there is justi ion for the view that Primo de Rivera's diciator- ship has entered its final phase and that the present breach between SOOHHOO66 HOO000000000006000 WOMEN OF ST.

Evidence The evidence given at the trial yes- terday occupied the whole afternoon and was practically the same as that offered at the coroner's inquest and the premilinary trial and which was printed in full detail in these coi- umns, After all' the witnesses for the Crown had been heard Mr, Coffey requested that His Lordship demiss the case on the grounds that therc was no evidence of carelessness on the 'part of the defendant Beaman. Mr, Justice Rose ruled, however, that the case should go before the jury and Beaman was called into the wit- ness box to testify on his own behali. His appearance indicated that he had been suffering from strain but hc offered his evidence frankly, Accused"s Evidence Under examination of Mr, Coffey the accused recounted briefly how on the night of Sunday, November 25, he was returning from Pontypool to his home at Mimico and while travcl- ing in his car, two miles west of Whitby, met another car with glar- ing headlights. He claimed that he was approaching the apex of a grade while the other car was coming down the grade, The lights dazzled his eyes and just as the machine passed he first caught sight of a woman walking on- the highway ahead. Witness sta- ted that she was but two feet m front of his car, and that before he had time to stop she had been struck. Bringing his car to a stop he found that she had been hurled to the ditch at the side of the road and immed- uly he rushed into the yard of a neighboring farm home, belonging to Dr. McQuay, of Toronto, and sum- moned help, He discovered the uns fortunate girl's hat at a distance of twenty-one paces east from where picked up close by. The defendant testified that the accident had ex- cited him but he recalled attempting to show Chief H, Gunson, of Whit- by, the spot where he thought the accident had occurred, Questioned by the Crown Prosecu- tor, the defendant admitted that if it had not | een for the glaring lights of the approaching car he would pro- bably have seen the young woman in time to avoid striking her, Chief' s Evidence was also given by Chief H. Gunson who was called to the scene of the tragedy shortly after its ° occurrence and in making measurc- ments of the distance the car had estimated it at 63 feet, This was cor- witnessed the chief measurements, making Witnesses ; James McQuay, son of Dr, Mec- Quay, told the court of Beaman's en- trance to the yard of his father's home and of his request that he tele- phone the police and an ambulance. Going to the highway he saw a body lying by the roadside which he recog- nized as Miss Loach, Frank Mackey, the body, . Norman Pearsall, a garage mechan- ic, offered expert testimony regarding had found the foot brakes and emer- gency brake in good working order. There was a dent on the right front fender which would indicate that it had come in contact with some ob- ject. Pearsall's evidence was corrbor- ated by Roy Jones also a mechanic. ST.
