"SEPARATE VILLAGES Segregation Is Keynote of| Religious Practices-- Practically No Develop- * ment in the Country from . the Time of Christ to the British Occupation The chief cause of the backward- ness of the peoples of Palestine and other eastern countries, which have progressed little in the last" 2,000 years, is their narrowness on religious matters, said ex-mayor John Stacey in an interview with the Times yes- terday. Mr. Stacey with his wife has just returned from a tour of the Med- iterranean, and an extensive trip through the Holy Land, and gave many interesting observations on his i Cot trip. ' The people of the various religions in. Palestine--Jews, Greeks, Moham- medahs, an@ a few Christians--did not even live in the same villages with each other. They were secluded in little settlements, each creed by itself. Sometimes adjoining settle- ments would build a common Mos- que, in which each religion had a efinite corner of its own to worship, and woe to the man that walked on the sacred ground of another creed. This tendency to segregate them- selves was the chief cause of the backwardness of the people of these countries, said Mr. Stacey. Another cause was that the people had been 80 long under the heel of the Turks that they have almost forgotten how t0 rule themselves. They have pro- gressed mightily in the last ten years ce General Allenby captured the land from the Turk and it was placed under the protection of Britain, but 'yet it has been impossible to give foe self government.

BST A MAN GHARGED WITH STEALING DUCKS Guilty to Theft of Poul- try in City o Stanley Fetterly appeared in po- lice court this morning charged with attempting to steal ducks, the' property of John Dagik, 63 Mill street. J. A. McGibbon stated that the crown was not ready to pro- ceed with the case and Fetterly was remanded until March 28, He pleaded not guilty. According to police who received a telephone call about 9.15 o'clock last night, Fetterly had gained thé interior o@® a chicken house which was being utilized to house some ducks, when the owners heard him, summoned the police. They then went quietly to the chicken house and locked and barred the door from the outside so that anyone inside would not be able to get out. On the arrival of Sergeant Ed. Stauffer and P. C. Wright, the door was unlockeed and Fetterly found inside. He was | ul ex-service men taken to the police station where he spent the night. LEGION.

SOLEMN SPLENDOR MARKS OBSENVIES OF MARSHAL FOCH (Continued from Page 1) war, as well as former combatants from all the countries which fought by the side of France. Poincare's Oration Paris, Mar. 26.--Raymond Poin- care, Premier of France--and its war-time President-- pronounced the funeral oration over the body of Marshal Foch #s it reposed in front of Les Invalides prior to in- terment today. He began by paying a high tribute to the courage of the man who "fought against death as valiantly as he fought against his countries enemies." The Premier said in part: "The light which has just failed was one of the brightest and purest that was ever sparkled in this world. He had no other ambition than to gerve; he desired no reward but the feeling of duty well accom- plished." "He was carried to the supreme command of the Allied armies without having once sought the honor. He led millions of soldiers and entire nations into battle, not through pride but through moral obligations, not for the conquest of foreign soil but for the deliver- ance of his invaded country. World Mourns "The mourning today is not that of France alone but that of the entire world." The Premier referred to the countless messages of sympathy and condolences received from all parts of the world and paid a tribute to Georges Clemenceau for having in "his government of vie tory chosen a man who achieved it." M. Poincaré reviewed Marshal Foch's career from childhood and then his success as. commander of the allied troops until the Armis- tice was signed. Canada Represented Paris, Mar. 26.-- Canada was represented at the funeral of Mar- shal Foch today by Hon. Phillippe Roy, Canadian Minister to France; Hon. P, C, Larkin, Canadian High Commissioner in London, and Major Gen. Sir Henry Burstall, commander of the 2nd Canadian Division in the war. FINED $500 FOR BREACH OF L.A. Arthur Brayley of Pickering Twp. Convicted of Having Liquor Illegally Arthur Brayley, of Pickering Twp., charged with having liquor illegally in connection with the confiscation of 34 gallons of alco- hol on Gordon street, which was found in an automobile, was this morning fined $500 and costs or must 'serve thirty days in jail. He pleaded guilty to the charge when he appeared in police court a week ago. In passing sentence Magistrate Willis of Whitby declared that the liquor traffic carried on illegally must stop and the only way to reach this end is to impose penalties which will be hard on those who are charged with illicit liquor handling, : FIVE NEW MEMBERS LUTHERAN CHURCH Palm Sunday Was Marked by a Reception , Service In the Sunday morning service of Grace Lutheran Church, the members of the adult instruction class were re- ceived into fellowship by the congre- gation, The members of this class were Emil Wagner, Walter Stire, Milford Stire, Miss Elda Stire, Lloyd Stire, and Alois Schmidt. Joyous gratitude marked this entire Palm 'Sunday service and the attend- ance was large. In his sermon Pas- tor A. C. Hahn spoke of the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem, saying to the new members, "Thus your Savior also wishes to come to you, wishes to make you His hosts. While you pledge your faith in Him, the Son of David will be enthroned in your hearts as the King of Zion." At the close of the service friendly con- gratulations were extended to the new members.

The program will include vocal num- bers by Mr. Orme Gamsby of Orono and the Port Hope Old Time Orchestra. LIQUOR ACTION 15 ADJOURNED BY MAGISTRATE More Information is Sought Before He Will Make Decision Magistrate Willis of Whitby has made himself widely known because of the thoroughness with which he conducts cases brought before him in police court here. If there is any chance for doubt in his mind, he ab- solutely refuses to pass judgment, and maintains his refusal until more complete information is obtained by either the crown or the defence. ..It was upon this characteristic that one case was adjourned this morning for one week, John Sledziewski, of 12814 Olive Avenue was charged with having liquor other than that obtained on his individual permit. He pleaded not guilty and was defended by J. P. Mangan, The story told by the offi- cers of the raid on Sledziewski's premises on March 16 was a unique one and is as, follows: Tw®officers, Sergeant Stauffer and P.C. Wright visited the home of the accused, and had some difficulty in making the occupants open the door. | Once inside however, Sergeant Stauffer stated. that he saw Sled- ziewski pour something from an open pan into the sink and then turn on the water from the tap. Sergeant Stauffer at once rushed to th® sink and shut off the water, scooping what he could of the liquid in the sink into a bottle which ultim mately was sent to Toronto for analy- sis. It proved to contain 5.306 percent alcohol. A 3 Sledziewski contends that he had mixed honey and brandy with which to treat a cough. He had a govern- ment liquor permit and was permit- ted to purchase spirits from the liquor store here. 'While the police state that the mixture was not what the accused stated it to be, the defence stated that what Sledziewski did was pér- fectly legal, and that fright alone caused him to pour the contents into the sink. i Magisrate Willis pondered a mom- asked for sentence of the court and then said: "This liquor will be sent again to Toronto with a copy of the evidence, and if it contains honey, it then cor- roborates the statement of the accus- ed; if it does not; then the crown's case is borne out." Mr. McGibbon realized the fairness of the deal, but Mr. Mangan was inclined to, take exception to it. However, he finally agreed to the proposition. "So you were drunk?" asked the magistrate, = "Drunk ? No, sir. T was just crazy. So declared ; Michael Kempieki when he appeared before Magistrate Willis in city police court thi§ morn~ ing.

Whitby Local Citizens Claim Hard- ship is Caused to the Peo- ple of Oshawa By the Fact That Clerk and Bail- iff of the Present Division Court for This Division Located in Whitby GREAT MAJORITY OF CASES ARISE HERE Petition to Judge Thompson for New Division is Now Being Signed, and Will Be Considered in the Near Future in Accordance With the Procedure Out- lined in Division Courts Act : Believing that the present arrange- ment, whereby all the officials of the Division Court for the first district of Ontario county, are located in Whitby, it is a decided hardship to the people of Oshawa, certain local citizens who are deeply interested in the matter are seeking action with a view to having a new district estab- lished, with its headquarters in this city. According to the Division Courts Act in the revised statutes of 1914, the boundaries fixed for the first district of Ontario county embrace the city of Oshawa, the town of Whitby, and the townships of East and West Whitby, although at the time this arrangement was made, Oshawa was a town, and was far smaller than it is at the present time. Since the time when the district was arranged, the population of Osh- awa and East Whitby township have practically" trebled, while there has been little increase in the other muni- cipalities, Those interested, point out that about 1,500 division court claims each year originate in Oshawa and the adjoining territory, while those arising in all the rest of the district put together do mot number more than three or four hundred. This is the feature which, it is claimed, works a hardship on Oshawa citizens and firms, since the division court, clerk and bailiff are in Whitby, and all the processes must be served from Whit- by, thus increasing the cost of the ac- tion to local people as compared with those in the town of Whitby. What is being sought is the establishment of a division court for the city of Oshawa and the adjoining township of East Whitby, to serve these com- munities 'without the necessity of all the cases originating them being 'taken in Whitby. Mode of Procedure Under the division courts act, there are two methods open to those who streets and one church for the de- (Continued on Page 12) LUMBERMAN NOT MENACE T0 TIMBER CONSERVATION Fire is Only Harmful Ele- ment in Canadian Forests, Says W. M. Gilbert Interesting sidelights were thrown on the lumber industry at the weekly Rotary Club luncheon in Welsh's parlors by Rotarian Ww. M. Gilbert, president of the Osha- wa Lumber Company. The menace to Canada's timber lands was not the lumberman, but fire, said Mr. Gilbert. The lumber- man cuts only prime ripe trees that would in a few years start to deteriorate with rot. Young timber was not desired, for it was not profitable to market it. The jumbermen were continually de- vising new methods of uauuung logs to conserve the lumber and get the highest possible number of board feet out of them, in their own interest, said Mr. Gilbert, and the forest fire menace was the only - thing that the country need fear under the question of conser- vation of the timber resources. Reforestation was more of a benefit from the standpoint or the utilization of waste lands than from any other view, he said. There wer hundreds of acres of land that were cleared of timber and have been found of no profit- able 'value for any other crop, and should be planted with trees so that 'they might become productive. The qualities of natural lmmper as against man-made building sup- | plies were compared by the speak- er, who said that on the highway between Oshawa and Whitby was a frame house build 112 years ago.

Little London Comment London, Mar. 26.--~London papers again today refrained from editorial comment on the sinking Alone' by a United States coast guard vessel. News reports of the inctdent were played prominently, however, with special stress given to Cap- tain Randail"s statement and his having been brought to New Or- leans in irons. Some condemnatory editorials of United States papers are reproduced prominently. These assailed "firing upon British ships and killing British seamen" and expressed doubt as to whether general opinion in the United States would commend the action. Washington, D.C.,. Mar, 26.-- The United States coast guard would seem to be justified in sink ing the Canadian schooner I'm Alone, Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon stated last night. Mellon, who has jurisdiction over the prohibition and coast guard of this country, informed the Cana- dian Press that early reports from the officers responsible for the sink- ing of the ship, indicate the pursuit and the sinking was carried out under the well known doctrine of international law which authorizes challenge and pursuit of a ship suspected of conspiracy to break the law. She was challenged with- in four leagues of the coast and pursued when she refused to halt. Mellon said from the reports of his officers he believed there was "continuous and hot pursuit" from the time the I'm Alone was chale lenged within the jurisdictionaf waters specified in the anti-smug- gling treaty between Canada and the United States. Asked if the Canadian governs ment had ever recognized the right to indefinite pyreuit and sinking of a vessel challenged outside the three mile limit universally recog= nized as territorial waters and the wider limits defined as one hour's steaming which is set down in the special treaties with- Canada and Great Britain. Canada May Enter Protest - Today the British and Canadian governments made known through their diplomatic representatives in Washington that they were pre pared to protest against the action should circumstances warrant. The Canadian Government has become involved in the case since it is believed that the vessel was of Canadian registry. While both the British and Canadian governments conceded the right of search and seizure of a rum-running vessel within "one hour's sail" of the coast, they have always maintained their stand that "hot pursuit'---such as the case of the I'm Alone is econ red to be-- must begin within the three mile limit. The state department is uns derstood to recognize this position. International law experts today questioned whether the Dexter, which took up the chase after the Wolcott, did not committ a breach of international law by sinking the. vessel, since it had not been in con tinuous pursuit with the suspected: ship in sight. If the British and Canadian gov= ernments should file protests it is expected they will contend that "continuous pursuit" did not take place.
