SIXTEEN PAGES -TFRANK BUONO CHARGED WITH MURDER CROWN ATTORNEY GIVES INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LAYING OF THE CHARGE Charge Arises Out of the Death of Mrs. Frank Kob- ernick of This City Who Was Drowned in the Har- bor at Whitby on Evening of June 19 WILL APPEAR IN COURT TOMORROW Frank Buono, Who is Well- known in Oshawa's For- Kobernidk's Only Com- panion on Her Last Fatal Boat Trip--Adjournment Likely Tomorrow Frank Buono of Oshawa, com- panion of Mrs. Frank Koberutck, also of this city, when she took her lastt fatal boat trip in Whitby har- bor on the night of Wednesday, June 19, will stand trial on a charge of murdering her. Acting on instructions from Crown At- torney McGibbon, Chief Gunson today laid the formal murder charge against Buono. who will appear in police court at Whitby at two o'clock afternoon for the preliminary hearing on this charge before Magistrate Willis, The laying of the charge against Buono {is the di- rect result of the evidence giyen at last Friday's inquest into the death of Mrs. Kobernick, who was drowned in Whitby Harbor while out in a punt with Buono, Buono was rescued, being found hanging to an iron bar on an oil vessel out in the harbor by a rescue party which responded to a call for ald. At the inquest, several witnesses testified that Buono had made threats against Mrs. Kobernick. The verdict of the jury was to the effect that Buono was the only person in the boat with Mrs, Kob- ernick at the time of her death, that her body carried marks of vio- lence, that Buono had threatened to take her life, that she was either pushed: or fell into the water. and that the jury was not satisfied with the evidence given by Buono. After the inquest Crown Attor- ney McGibbon stated that a seri- ous charge would be laid against Buono, who has been held in the county jail at Whitby under a nominal charge of vagrancy. This was carried out today, when Chief Gunson of Whitby was in- structed to lay the murder charge' and to arrange for the preliminary hearing. ~It-i¢ not likely that any evi- dence will be taken at the hear- ing tomorrow, but that an ad- journment will - be made for a week after the charge has been formally read to Buono by the magistrate. Owing to the fact that both Mrs. Mrs. Kobernick and Buono were well-known members of Oshawa's foreign colony, the case has arous- ed a tremendous amount of inter- est locally.

Premier MacDonald in Par- liament Intimated That the Government's Full Policy in Regard to Safe« guarding Would Not Be Made Known Until the Budget Was Brought Down : MOST IMPORTANT OF CHALLENGES TO GOV'T The Government Reserves the Right to Remove Ex« isting Duties When a Practical Opportunity, Arises, Says Premier (By George Hambleton, Canadian Press Staff Correspondent) London July 8.--The Conservae tive opposition to the government's announced intention of repealing the safeguarding duties is the most important of the challenges to the government which are revealed in amendments to the address in ree ply to the speech from the throne, The notice of amendments from the Conservatives, fberals and Ine dependent abor party was given day. wr wn AN " While Premier MacDonald. = in Parliament last evening intimated the government's full policy in re= gard to safeguarding would not Le made known unti] the budget was 'brought down, The announced as the same time that the government did not propose to give effect to the report the safeguarding com- mittee on the wool industry, whicA it is understood recommends impo- sition of safeguarding duties for this trade. The paper outlining the safeguarding procedure would be a 'dead letter," the prime min- ister said. This was a plain de- claration that no further safe- guarding duties would be imposed. As for the existing duties, so far as they are "purely safeguarding,' the government, in the words of the prime minister, "reserves 'the right to remove them when a prac tical opportunity arises. "" Assuming these "purely.safe- guarding" duties to be fhose im- posed under the revised procedure of the white paper, they are 8 in number, affecting lace, gas mantles, . gloves, cutlery, packing and wraps ping paper, pottery, buttons, and enamelled hollowware, The McKenna duties -so much discussed in the election campaign come under a different category. They were originally imposed by the coalition government as a check on importation of luxury ar- es and to protect the status of foreign - exchanges. They cover such imports as' moving picture films, clocks and watches motor cars and musical instruments. The last Labor Government allowed these duties to relapse, but the subsequent Conservative adminig- tration re-imposed them. They al- so give an imperial preference of one-third.
