COMMONS DEBATE REPARATIONS BILL First Reading Given Measure to Provide Payments to : Civilians Ottawa, May 17--A bill to provide payments on the awards for repara- tions to Canadian civilians was given first. reading in the House of Com- mons tonight. Coming up in the form of a resolution for permission to introduce the. bill, it brought on a debate which extended over several hougs of the afternoon and night sit- ting. The resolution was slightly amended by the government from the form it took when previously before the commons. = The original proposal was that the bill for reparation claims should. pro- vide to pay losses. to the civilian population suffered during the great war to a sum .not exceeding $2,500,- 000. However, this was changed to- day by eliminating the word "not exceeding" 'because, as Premier King pointed out, it: had been interpreted in some quarters to mean there would be 1b nore payments after this amount had been expended. As the bill now-stands no obstacle is placed to further. payments on some later occasion, : LYNGH-STAUNTON WITHDRAWS BILL Would Not Disarm Officers, But Would Limit Use * of Gun Ottawa, May 17--Senator Lynch- Staunton today agreed to the with- drawal of his bill "to amend the criminal code as regards the use of force to prevent escapes by flight." Senator Dandurand, in sugegsting the withdrawal of this bill until the next session, said it was admitted al police officer had the right to use force in effecting an arrest, but the lay says to what extent. He thought it advisable to secure frém the justice department an interpretation of the |. rights of police officers in reference to effecting arrests for various offen- ces. The proposed legislation, he thought, might curb the effectiveness of the police. It would be advisable he thought, to have the department of justice state what testriction should be made on the use of forces by police officers without destroying the effectiveness of these officers. BRANDON"S WINTER FAIR The annual winter fair, held at Brandon, Man, is one of the most at- tractive and outstanding events in Western Canadian agriculture. This year's fair, held last month, was the most successful in its history. An outstanding feature was the magnj- ficent display of 71 vearlings in the boys' colt class.

After a two-day court hearing dur- ing which mony a tear has fallen in sympathy for the boy prisoner, An- thony Tucker was acquitted this af- ternoon on a charge of manslaughter following the shooting 'of Anthony Tucker, Sr., near his home at Trout Creek on March~15 last, The jury deliberated for two hours before returning the verdict and im- mediately thereafter Mr. Justice Raney released the lad to his mother's care. "The jury has returned a verdict of not guilty and I must be bound by that," his lordship commented, "although I am not sure that it might not have been better had you been sent to the industrial school. You may go home with your mother whe will consult with Father McFad- den on 'your future course." Following the + evidence of his mother who told the court that An- thony had always been his father's favorite son, the boy himself was put into the stand by his counsel today. He was on the verge of tears and several times during the tragic story broke down and sobbed. He told it clearly, however, while hardy looking men of the north sheepishly produc- ed handkerchiefs and women specta- tors wept openly. LLOYD GEORGE NAMES EXPERTS Tells of Three Who Aided Him in His Unemploy- ment Scheme (By George Hambleton, Canadian Press Staff Writer) London, May 17---Taking up Pre- mier Baldwin's challenge, Rt. Hon. David Lloyd George, Liberal leader, tonight named three of the experts who had advised him in preparing his unemployment program. They were W. T. Layton, M.A, C.B.E, May- nard Keynes, M.A, C.B., and Sir Herbert Samuel. He challenged the premier to do likewise with regard to the experts who helped to frame the government white paper issued in reply to his unemployment pro- posals. Yesterday Premier Baldwin in" a speech asked who the experts mentioned by Mr. Lloyd George were, and tsaid! ie 'wondered if Sir Henry Maybury, an expest-in roads 'was one of them. ' Speaking at Bristol, Mr. Lloyd George spoke of the three men he had named as men of the highest dis- tinction who had been called upon to advise Conservative governments on important matters. "Mr. Layton," he said, "was chair- man and the other two were mem- bers of the Liberal committee which formulated our unemployment scheme. Mr, Layton had been chosen by the present government to rep- resent this. country and the empire at an important financial conference at Geneva. Rt. Hon. Andrew Bonar Law chose. Mr. Keynes to advise the treasury on most difficult finan- cial problems. BAKER CLAIMANT T0 EGMONT TITLE Search Being Made in Aus- tralia for Birth Cer- tificate London, May 18.~The Daily Mail says it learns that the right of the present Earl of Egmont, know widely as "the Rancher Earl," to his title is being dis- puted. A claim to the earldom has been made by a sexagenarian baker, James William Percival, living in North London and legal proceed- ings are being: instituted. The claimant says that he is a son of Augustus George Perceval, son of the. sixth Earl of Egmont, and as such, ought to have succeéded to the title. It is understood that the pres- ent title-holder, until a few months ago plain Mr. Perceval, an Alberta farmer, has not yet received any money from the estate and it is unlikely anything will be done un- til the question of .the claim is pottled. A search is being made in Australia on behalf of the#claim- ant for a birth certificate which his. legal advisors informed him would settle the question beyond a doubt.

Both girls and boys take part in the games and to a casual passer-by it would seem that the feminine contingent can make as much noise, and swing as wicked a bat as their male col- leagues. COUNTY COUNCIL TO BUILD BREAKWATER IN DUFFIN'S CREEK Pickering, May 18.--Upon an inspection of the bridge over Duf- fin's Creek which is situated on the Brock road, the County Counci bas decided to build a break water to turn the stream back to its orig- inal course.
