With a glance he assured him- self everything aboard was secure. Then, paddle in hand, he kept his craft to the hollow of the seas. But on, en came the topmasts, thé topsails, rising against the sky. The ir] gasped in terror. On camd the ails, on and on, nearer and near- er, taller and more definite--more greatly to be dreaded. And then, in thig awful moment, without werd of warning, Olive sprang overboard. Palmyra uttered a wail, After all he had braved, to forsake her now? To seek his own safety in (light? No! It was un- thinkable! And pearcely the unworthy thought, than the brown 'man's hand shot up, seized the oulrigger, gave one twist. . The next second Palmyra was floundering in the water, the canoe capsised. With a girake the savage reached out and eaught her by the hair, As a kitten 'held in its mother's teeth, she eeased to struggle, With another stroke he recaptured the canoe, wottom up. He put his foot on the outrigger, tilted the hull sc the imprisoned air escaped. With one arm he bore down upon the cange, their combined weight, to sink it and control its motion, The other arm held the girl, submerged, so that she choked and fought for "breath. : On, on the Lupe-a-Noa' indeed had come, nearer and nearer--hut net too near, Careening under {ts read of sail it had been unbeliey- ly close snd' then, all unknown flown away, Ponape Burke, with his binoculars, had glared straight ever them in his scrutiny of the more distant sea. Hp placed the girl's hands cn the ngw buoyant camee, returned iis ghar, lifted himself up ard in, He had stooped for the more difficult feat of Bauling Palmyra aboard L al h . when, startlingly, he let go his hold | with a guttural ery. She turned frightened eyes over her shoulder, then screamed, For there, cutting the surface, a little jet of spray rising from its edge, wans another sail--the dreadful lateen of a shark! x The man-eater was almost upon her. Frantic she turned her eyes to Olive. There he stood, for the first time at fault. His hand, with light ning instinct, had flown to the sheath of his belt, found it empty. The girl saw that, in throwing his knife away, she had made her own' death certain. But, instantly now, the savage rallied. Only for a second did paralyzing discovery unnerve him. The shark had all but seized its victim. A moment and action would be too late. But in that flash of time the man leaped, landed with his feet upon the shark's back, The impact threw the monster into brief ; panic. She tore at her dress; thrust out the knife. He snatched it: dived. Just as the man-eater made to seize its prey, Olive dropped below the surface. The heavy fish had ne chance to stop. As it swept over his head the savage thrust upward with the knife in a lunge that reached the peart. : Olive did not waste time over the adventure of the shark. He had killed sharks before. Throwing the canoe into its course, he sailed on for the island. For an interval they went on, before it became evident that Pon- ape Burke had made them out, Presently the schooner was so close Palmyra could make out Po- nape Burke on its deck, covering them with his glasses. The reef wall was now so Imme- diately at hand she could see that this rim, by reason of the coral broken off and packed down By the trample of the surf, wag higher than the rest of the reef behind the sur- face or reef-table, which outstret~ ched inland to the beach. The bar- rier was armored in brown knobs of living coral, with their toothed fac- es like a giant nutmeg grater a- gainst whicp the sea eounld grind the canoe into splinters. And now, as the girl looked, Olive dug his paddle in, put all his weight upon it. The craft veered and took a mew course--straight for the reef. Palmyra sat stunned. She had hoped against hope that she was wrong, that he still saw a way. But here was surrender. Even for such a one there could be ne further shift. Searcely had the canoe changed course than the Pigeon of Noah also swung in toward the reef. Palmyrai could see Ponape Burke waving his arms, shouting orders, She gave one shuddering glance at the cauldron ahead, then Back to the white man. The race was run. : ! And even now, in confirmation, Olive sprang up. let go the sheet, slashed the cords that held the mast: whipped the whole gear over- board. But immediately. to her bewilder- ment, he séized the paddle again, plunged it into the water, began to speed toward the barrier. The roar of the surf--most frightful of gounds--deafened her. But as she clung desperately to her - place. staring ahead into the tum- uit of waters--she could smile. T1¢ Olive chose death: tp defeat, so could she. But, such her faith, she felt that, impossiple as it seemed, he must still think to escape. | ~~ Now, as her navigator began to calculate the seas, fo hold the canoe pack at times, Palmyra saw there wag a slight recession shoreward in the line of the reef. It swung in ab this point just sufficiently to create' a lee. The surf did not burst upon it with the direct drive of the wind and, protected through mest of the vear from the s%86p of the trades, not 50 much broken coral had been packed down here and the rim was lower. In a flash she perceived that he must have had this place in mind from the first; that, the tide in their favor, it might be possible, in the reel. There wag just one phase in the rhythm of the surf when he could succeed. He must catch the moment when wave had crashed down up- on the coral teeth; when the violen- ce of the impact had abated, but not one seepnd of the precious af- ter inrusp had been lest, For if that had not earried him far en- ough, he would be ecgught by the recoil to follow, when the water flung upon the reef poured back into the ocean. Olive paddled furiously to ge' far enough in so that the back-sweep could not grip them, drag them down to destruction. Nearly he had succeeded, But, the vecoil having rained the coral almost barp, the. outrigger strock a knob of'the Jime- stone, broke from the canoe. Instantly, the man leaped out, caught the girl up in his arms, He sprang upon a coral houlder that raised them above the sliding water, The canoe sucked back over the brink, but Olive held. The moment the downrush ended, he raced with his burden, bounding over the rough coral, until he had reached another knob rising above the level, perhaps fifty feet In from the edge. Here they weather. ed the next sea and its subsequent retreat. Another dagh across the shallews and they werp sale from the ocean. But not as yet from Penape Burke. As the brown man carried Palm. sufficiently skilled hands, to hurdle * THE OSHAWA DAILY] TIVES, TOESDAY, JOLY 165, 1929 : spe A 'yra, her face, over his shoulder, was turned toward the Lupe-a-Noa, The girl saw that the schooner, beaten nt last, had gone aboui end was working back out of danger. She saw that the white man had clambered part up up the rigging. And then she gave a warning ery as, from the shrouds, there flashed out a spurt of flame. Instantly, Olive, understanding, trew himself flat Into the three- foot water. A bullet came cutting along the surface almost where they had stood. Olive, leaping up, sprang ~v:th the girl behind another boulder in time to escape a second phullet. Several] shots Ponape Burke fir- ed in his jealous rage, though mow he had no target. Then, the Pig- eon of Noah gaining way, drew off, and the pursuit, in this phase at any rate, was ended. - (To be continued) STORMY SESSION AT GITY COUNGH. (Continued from page 1) and the balance, $1,606.50, was tu be paid on August 1, 1933. On each August 1, Mr. Conant was to deed to the city 5 acres of the property, but the council could at any time take over the whole or any part of the area by paying for it at the rate of $750 per acre. The restrictions were: No build- ing was to be erected within 40 feet of the street line of Simcoe street, as widened to 80 feet; no building was to be erected within 30 feet of Wentworth street; no offensive business, such as a tan- nery, smelting works or slaughter house was to be carried on on land within 200 feet of either Went- worth or Simcoe streets; no factory building of less than $20,000 value was to be erected within 200 feet of Simcoe street nor any factory building less than $10,000 in value within 200 feet of Wentworth street; no dwelling of less than $4,000 value was to be erected within 200 feet of Simcoe street and no house of less than $3,000 value within 200 " feet of Went- worth street. 'The agreement in- cluded Mr, Conant's offer to give a strip of land 80 feet in width wr a street to connect the industrial area property with the city farm, the council tp select the location of this street before August 1, 1930, and fenee it in. MORE ; Council went into committee of the whole on the 'second reading of the bylaw. Alderman Morris stated that the purchase of land was being proceed- ed with too rapidly, He also opposed the establishment of a large area in one place. At this time-land- should not he purchased until a definite in- dustry had been sccured that desired the land, he said. Alderman Preston declared that, with the restrictions in the agree- ment, it was unwise to purchase the land. These restrictions might even prevent the Oshawa Industrial Foun- ation, Limited, from building a unit building for the development of the area, he said. The press had been biased and unfair in dealing with the matter, he declared. The agreement should be published in full, he declared, before it was passed by the council. If the land was to be bought, it should be bought without any restrictions, Alderman Carnell said that the Co- nant property should be purchased in New Martin NOW PLAYING LAURA LA PLANTE "Scandal" Comedy Arve Chaperones Necessary?

Legal points in the agreement should be left to the city solicitor, and the solicitor had abso- lutely approved the agreement from a legal standpoint, Practical and Progressive The proposition was feasible, practical and progressive, he declar- ed. From a revenue standpoint, it was advisable to buy this land, be- cause it would open up a new area in the city, raise the assessment and therefore the taxes which could be reaped from this area. : Says Restrictions Prohibitive Alderman Mason was strongly op- posed to the proposition due to the restrictions, which, he paid, were "prohibitive to small industries" If small industries were established they would have to be nlaced "in the centre of the field," where it would be necessary to spend a large sum of money in placing roads and other facilities, he declared. 4 It was the first he had heard of any restrictions in the agreement, said Mayor Mitchell. He was just as enthusiastic about industrial de: velopment as he had ever been, ne said, but could not recommend the purchase of this land with these re- strictions. Aldetman Douglas declar- ed that he did not think the prop- osition satisfactory as it stood, and he opposed it, The city should be able to make ifs own restrictions, declared 'Alder- man S. H. Jackson, defaulting from his fellow-members of the Industrial committee. He was favorable to the purchase of the land, but without any restrictions, Why were restrictions put on res- idences? It was an industrial area, said Alderman Boddy, "C ittee Unbusi like" Alderman Macdonald declared that the Industrial Committee had gone at the proposition in a very unbusi- nesslike manner. The restrictions should not be on the areca. He could not understand why the price should smaller area were desired. "The whole proposition has been attacked as if it were the pet scheme of some, committee," said Alderman Hart,"when as a matter of fact the whole city is erying for new indus- tries, It was the best judgment of the joint industrial committee of the Chamber of Commerce that thisarea should be purchased," he said. The proposition had been opposed by a few members from the start. The Aldermen should get on common ground, in an endeavour to seek for industrial development, he declared. At one time Parkwood was offered to the city for $5000; in five years it was sold for $40,000. Such propo- sals had been turned down, to the city's detriment, time after time, due to lack of foresight by previous councils, he declared, asking the council to have a larger vision of civic development, The restrictions might appear. dras- tic, but $20,000 would only build a small factory, Who wanted to have small $2,000 houses on the main high- way to Lakeview Park?, he asked. Shacks and ramshackle factories would only decrease the value of the property, instead of increasing it, hc said. y Best Location The location was the best possible in the city, said Alderman McLeese, chairman of the special Industrial Committee. He declared emphatically that the Oshaws Industrial Founda- tion Limited, would place its Indus- trial, Incubator buildings on this site, This was corroborated by Leon Frazer, Industrial Commissioner, who 'spoke at the request of the council and stated that this area was the on- ly one that was sufficient to take care of the needs of the future, In regard to the restrictions, he stated that buildings of any value could be built on any portion of the property except within 200 feet of Simeoe or Wentworth streets, A building $10,000 in value only pro- vided E000 square feet, a very small factory. If a firm bought only one acre of land, he had ample room to put a small factory 200 feet back of the street line, and could build a lar- ger plant in front of the small one, at a latér date as the business expand- ed. Place Spur Track : By huying the whole area, the city by the Oshawa Railway that it would place a spur track free of charge to the manufacturers through the property, If only a small aréa was purchased the Railway would not construct the spur, and it would be a considerable expense to the city to serve a manufacturer with trackage, he declared, , The Oshawa Industrial Foundation, Limited, was not contemplating the erection of an- industrial incubator building at the present-time. Its pres: | definite firms and lease them to the it was entirely a question of policy, PAGE SEVEN cturer, he said. n you conscientiously say that it is in the best interest of the cit; to buy a large area of land on this gestion of the city?" asked Alderman eston, who raiséd the point of hou- sing facilities being remote from the site. "Yes," said Mr. Frazer. "This area is one that will not require an expenditure of money to serve it with facilities, Industrial development in any part of the city will first fill up any vacant houses that there might be at the present time. The restric- tions are simply protecting the prop- erty for the future--placing the re- strictions that the council would it- place at a later date," hé said, w 10 Acres ould Buy Alderman Preston said that he supported only the purchase of 10 acres at $750 per acre, without any restrictions, There was already an industry ne- gotiating for six acres, with only our acres left the city would be in a ridiculous position, declared Mr, Fra- zet, "A stion of Policy Aldea IN declared that "Ca whether industrial deyelopment would be proceeded with or not. "If we have small vision, our results will be small--Hamilton has over 1,000 acres tied up in industrial site and areas, he declared, . Debate Becomes Heated . Aldermen Preston and McLeese engaged in a heated debate in which Alderman Preston declared that Al- derman McLeese was an "agent for Mr, Conant," and Alderman Mec. Leese told him he should be "ash. amed of himself." "This land is a good investment for the city," declared Alderman Dis- ney. "If we buy only 10 acres we will some day pay through the nose for the rest," he said, The restrictions were nothing new --the same restrictions were on the land six years ago, said Alderman E. Jackson. The matter should be laid over and the council should meet Mr, Conant, and have the option extended for an- other 30 days, said Alderman Morris. He congratulated the Industrial Com- mittee on its efforts for industrial development, Aldermen MacDonald and Morris moved that the matter be referred back to the council in committee of the whole, to meet Mr. Conant, and to have the option renewed to Aug- ust 6. The motion carried. RE-HEARING OF SUBWAY QUESTION MAY BE REFUSED (Continued From Page 3) on fire calls. J. C. Barber, Mr. Fair and H. Orpwood appeared before the coun- cil in support of a petition for a sidewalk on Cadillac avenue south, which had been presented some time ago but had not been acted upon. They also asked for cinders or gra- vel on the road, and for a sewer on the street. The deputation was asur- ed by Mayor Mitchell that the coun- cil would give their request full cone sideration, Subway Hearin, City Engineer, W. C. mith, was instructed to go to Ottawa for a con- ference with A. W, Greene, special solicitor for the city in the subway matter. Mr. Greene has informed the council that the city's application for a re-hearing -of the judgment of the Board of Railway Commissioners would not be granted by the Board unless a concrete case supporting the city's application, better than mere dissatisfaction with the judgment, were submitted. Ask Mandatory Order Council requested the Provincial Deartment of Health for a manda- tory order for the consfruction of the downtown relief storm sewer which the council decided some weeks ago to construct. The mandatory order was necessary as most of the sewer could not be con- structed as' a local improvement. Work has already started on the laying of this sewer, as verbal as. surance has been given by the de- partment that the order would be issued, the council was informed by Alderman Preston, chairman of the Board of Works, The Board of Ed- ucation was requested to grant per- mission to construct a portion of this sewer across the Centre school grounds to the creck. It was decided to build a storm sewer on Bloor street from Simcoe street to Haward street and from Simcoe street 300 feet west, to drain the area on which a pavement is to be laid, made necessary by the added weight of the new fite pumper, / «Agreement Approved A bylaw was passed authorizing the mayor and clerk to sign an agrec- ment with the W. E. Phillips Comp- any regarding the closing of Osh- awa street from First to Third ay- enue. This street has been closed, and Third avenue opened across the Oshawa Railway tracks by an order of the Ontario Railway and Munici- pal Board, thus giving access to the city to those residents on Oshawa street south of Third avenue. The agreement with the W. E. Phillips Company provides that the company and the city will bear equally the cost of any damages awarded to re- sidents of the vicinity due to this action. The portion of Oshawa street closed by the city will be sold to the W. E. Phillips company, which requires it fo connect up areas which they own on the east and west sides of the street, for further expansion contemplated by the company, . A bylaw was passed for the open- ing of William street between Rit- son road and Oshawa boulevard, spreading the cost of the opening over a wider area of the adjacent properties than did a previous bylaw which has been rescinded, KUBALA'S STORY OF DISASTER (Continued from page 1) believed broken, were caught somewhere. While the rescuers worked there was a terrific explo- sion, the force of which threw the rescuers to the ground. The plane immediately fire and several of the rescuers were burned. They saw the flames licking at the body of the luckless Idzikowski, and never abandoned their labor until they felt he was dead and it would be futile and dangerous to try furth- er. The scene drove Kubala, painful- ly injured, almost to frenzy. Kubala, when he had somewhat recovered from his experience, said they had motor trouble, and the fumes from the open gasoline tank had made him almost unconscious. Warsaw, Poland, July 16.--The Horta, will bring the body of Major Polish schoolship Iskra, now in Ludwik Idzikowski back to Uoland where all honors will be paid it. Tomorrow religious mourning ceremonies will take place through- out Poland in memory of the aviator who gave hig life in an ef- fort to carry the Polish colors across the Atlantic. The war office probably will is- sue an official communique on the disaster some time shortly.

While no one doubts the serious- ness of the situation here the .geu- eral belief is neither China nor Russia will find it advantageous to resort to arms at present and that they therefore may attempt a com- promise, The Japanese newgpapers are unanimous in condemning China's seizure of the Chinese Eastern, which they consider a violation of international law. Some papers have asserted Moscow will seek Japanese intervention but the re- ports have had a foreign office de- nial. Asahi claimed to have learned from Harbin that in the event of China's ignoring the Moscow unti- matum the Soviet proposed to iso- late the Chinese Eastern by sever- ing its connections at both ends. Chinese press despatches today quoted the Manchurian authorities as saying: 'While we are taking every precaution against an emer- gency we nevertheless are main- tainin a calm attitude despite tne fact Soviet troops are preparing de- fenses including trenches on the Siberian side of the Siberia-Man- churia border." One despatch said: "It was offi- cially stated the Manchurian au- thorities were prepared to carry out the terms of the Sino-Soviet agreementof 1924 but would not under any circumstances counten- ance Soviety encroachments upon Chinese rights." Patrolling Border Shanghai, July 16.--Kuomin of- ficial news despatches from Nan- king today said six armored trains were patroling the entire line of the Chinese eastern railway be- tween Harbin, Manchuria, and Manchuli, on the eastern Siberian border. Additional troops have been gar- risoned at various important points along the railway. AIRMAIL LETTER FROM LONDON, ONT. Mayor Receives Greetings on Inauguration of New Service A letter by airmail, conveying to Oshawa the greetings of the city of London, Ontario, was received this morning by Mayor Mitchell, mark- ing the opening of the new airmail route between London and Toronto, This service is made possible by the fact that London has a well-equipped flying field and airport, which are essentials to the development of air< mail services, The letter received by Mayor Mitchell is as follows: His Worship the Mayor: : Oshawa, Ont. : The City of. oLndon sends greet« ings to you by the first air mail ser« vice from London to Toronto and to Windsor, The air mail brings municipalities closer together; more and more the interests of one city become matters of interest to all others, The. citizenship of the individual makes the quality of government in the municipality, province and gen- eral state.
