SINGER FREED, 'BAIL, $100,000 Toronto Lawyer to Appear on Habeas Corpus Writ This Morning Toronto, July 24.--Bailed for $100,000, half of which he put up himself, Louis M. Singer, K. C., head of the Amalgamated Builders' council, who was committed to jail for alleged contempt of court, mo- tored last night to his home on Palmerston boulevard, a free man after 30-odd hours' confinement in the Don jail. A stifling hot little room on the second floor of Osgoode hall was the setting last evening for this latest development in Toronto's greatest legal sensation of recent ears. / After a hurried ride from the jail to 'Osgoode, Mr. Singer, througa counsel, assured Mr. Justice Me- Evoy that the formalities of the law had been fully observed and received his temporary freedom at the latter's hands at 9:06 o'clock. The barrister impatiently threaded his way down narrow stairs to the courtyard, hopped nimbly into a waiting motor car, and was off be- fore waiting newspaper photo- graphers could 'flash' him. Mr. Singer and his 'brother-in- law, John S. Granatstein, of Rose- dale Heights drive, each bonded themselves for $50,000 that the former would appear this morning before Mr. Justice Jeffrey at Os- goode hall at ten o'clock. At'thae hour stands returnable the writ of habeas corpus on which Mr. Singer was bailed. FOREIGN EXCHANGE New York. July 24.--(Noon)--Foreign ex- Britain, 4.84 3 CHATTADUA WAS [ree OPENED WITH AN AMUSING COMEDY CANADIAN COMPANY MAKES ITS BOW TO OSHAWA Large Tent "Was Filled to" Capacity for Opening Night "Wholesome and real" as Charles described Louise's family, so was the opening presentation, "The Family Upstairs," at the Chautauqa last evening. The large Chaytauqua.tent which for the past twelve years has appeared in Oshawa and been the centre from which excellent enter- tainment has radiated is now pitched on the Davis lot, corner of Simcoe and Aberdeen streets and for the next five days the pleasure seckers of the city will be entertained by a number of young Canadians in a manner which has never been ex- celled in this city. Although the Chautauqua has been an annual event in Oshawa for so many years this is the first time that the Canadian Chautauquas Limited has been in the city. This year this concern deserv- ed more support than at any other time since it is now an all-Canadian concern, working for the betterment of the Canadian people. : Last evening the seating capacity of the large tent was taxed to the utmost and before the opening of the first act it was found necessary to bring in more seats from the re- serves. It is seldom the citizens of the city patronize an endeavor of any sort as whole heartedly as they did last evening. The admirable reputation of this company has pre- ceded its coming. Mayor Mitchell formally opened the Chautauqua last evening and spoke in a few words of the superior type of entertainment to which the city would be treated for the next five days. He also in- troduced Miss Millard, a graduate of Western University, who is managing the Oshawa branch of the company during their visit here. Miss Millard also told of the organization of the company and the work they are do- ing. With the drawing of the curtain on the first act of the three acts of the comedy "The Family Upstairs" one entered into one of the most realistic scenes of everyday life that it is a privilege to see. Humor was the keynote' of the entire play, but with it was mingled pathos, and tra- gedy. The entire Heller family went through the ordinary torments of life and through the guidance of Pa Heller "came through with colors flying." Writing immediately after seeing and listening to these actors one is apt to be too lavish in praise but certainly George Korwyn of the Martin Erwin Players is deserving of the highest praise as are the other artists, As a father of three chil- dren and the husband of a high seck- ing wife Pa Heller was an admirable character, Louise, the daughter whom Ma Heller feared would never get a husband, was portrayed in a commendable manner by Miss Mirian Gilson, The role of Emma Heller, the mother of the three children, who tried so hard to give the impression that they had everything when they had so little, and who suffered, as she said, from numerous ailments, was cnacted by Mildred Mahan. Willie, the only son of the family, just sev- enteen who was idolized by his mother and was the cause of a great deal of consternation to his father because he had no job and would not return to school, was youthfully shown by Rich- ard Ilson. Miss Nancy Lee appeal- ingly represented the last and the youngest member of this ordinary family, Annabelle, who had no desire to become a musician but under her mother's careful guidance may, with a great deal of practice. Practice, which to the father was irritating since he was unable to read his Sunday paper and to Willie Because he was aroused from his daytime slumbers. Charles Grant, who was in love with Louise and was parted from her through the attempts of Mrs. Heller to push them together, was the typical young lover as portrayed by Mr. Les- lie Kerkow. The enthusiasm and zest of the arguments into which the entire family joined because Louise was not married and because Willie had no job drew the laughter of many. The. little-near tragedies, hopes and ideals crowded into the Heller fam- ily were shown full of comedy with occasional touches of pathos. Charles Grant and Louise formed their plans for a future marriage but, because Louise desired it.so, the fam- ily was not informed. Mrs. Heller was always speaking to Louise "for her own good" to get married and for that reason Louise kept the news from the family. The mother fear- ful that this young man would escape without marrying Louise talked to him of the apartment, the maid and the car. She even spoke of the "super- hatrodyne" radio which Mr. Heller intended to buy, which was startling news to the latter. In consequence she completely = frightened Charles, who realized that he could not give Louise the things to which her mother had been telling him Louise was ac- customed. When the break came Father Heller stepped in and conduct- ed the train of the family, ashe had been conducting a street car for years. He brought Charles by stra- tegic- means, back to the flat, and there, by means of keeping Mrs. Heller out of the conversation, he was able to arrange everything to the satisfaction of the entire family and | the audience as well. The final note of humor was when 'after Louise and Charles | had left Emma broke down and expressed her sorrow that Louise was to be taken from her.

STANDARD MINING EXCHANGE Toronto, Ont., July 24.--Trading on the Standard Mining Exch got under way slowly this morning but there were a num- ber of fairly strong spots apparent at the noon hour. _ Noranda made a recovery of 65 cents to $58.75 and the precious metals showed a number of advances. Of the recent actives, Ajax Oil dropped two to $2.39, Amulet 4 to 1.68 and Siscoe 3 to 66 but Sylvanite gain- ed five to 1.20., Teck Hughes strengthened 20, McIntyre 50 to $15.75 in response to good demand. me gained 15 to 10,15 and Hol- linger 5 to 5.70, Vipond Consolidated was up/ to 93, Base Metals added 20 to 4.50 and others of this group to gain were Sherritt Gordon, 25 to 85, Sudbury Basin, 10 to 8.60 and Ventures 10 to 8.20, Big Missouri was down 2 to 1.45 amid active selling and Ab- ana lost 6 to 1.67, _Home Oil rose 25 cents to 24.00, Dalhousie 15 to 4.00 and Mayland at 10.00, was ten a- head of yesterday's good showing.

Suitability Keynote to Building Success ecm Edmonton, Alta., July 24.-- "Suitability is the keynote of suc- cessful building," declared Mar- jorie Hill, B.A.,, B.A.Sc., who was the first woman to graduate in ar- chitecture from the University of Toronto, and the first woman to register as a member of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. She is now practicing her profes- sion in this city, where she graau- ated in arts from the University of Alberta. Pursuing the subject of suitabil- ity Miss Hill said "A building must be well planned for the use to which it is to be put, whether it be a school, a house, a church or what. No country ever will at- tain a good style of architecture by making a bank look like a Greek temple." Miss Hill has little sympathy with those who think that western Canada has failed in developing a distinctive * style of architecture. "All the old styles, the Spanish, which has fitted so charmingly in- to California settings for example, were originally the product of the building of more or less cultured people who gradually evolved & type of architecture suited to their peculiar problems of setting and suitability. They took literally centuries to evolve," she pointed out. deal of enjoyment and instructive matter from these artists.

' Lady Bertha Dawkins, who 1 connected with the Girls' Guild of Good Life, under whose auspices the hostel has been built, announc- ed that she had been permitted to reveal that the Queen had been one of their chief benefactresses. "The total cost of the hostel is £16,000," said Lady Bertha. 'Out of that her Majesty has paid more than half. She was the first con- tributor to the building fund when she gave £100, and then she gave us £6,000 from the proceeds of the exhibition of her Doll's House at Wembley. "Last Autumn, when we did not know which way to turn for fur- ther funds, the Queen gave us an- other £2,000. In .all her Majesty has thus contributed £8,100."

KAISER AND THE INDUSTRIAL SITES Oshawa, July 24, 1929, The Editor, The Oshawa Daily Times. Dear Sir: . My excuse for writing this let- ter, and for serving a public mno- tice upon all whom it may concern, rests upon the fact that as your representative in the parliament of Canada I have urged at every ses- sion that large sums of money be expended upon a harbor at Osh- awa-on-the-lake, In this regard we have met with some success, but at least $250,000 must yet ar- rive before we can hope to have reached. the goal for which, both publicly and privately, whether in oppsition or in power, I have constantly worked for about thirty years, It has always been my hope to see the harbor finished and the lands about it, largely owned by Mr. Conant, covered by industrial establishments of a kind for which a useful and commodious harbor would prove of great service, It was always a question in my mind whether or not Mr. Conant would care to part with his "ancestral domain" for purposes such as I have suggested. As a matter of fact, one rather feels inclined to sympathize with the sentiment that induces any man to hold fast to the old homestead." Within every city in Canada there are numbers of people who are thus constituted, and their indisposition to part with land at a fair price has delayed industrial development in so many cases that in 1929 the Government of the Province of Ontario passed an Act, Chapter 59, 1929-19, George V., which, by Clause 2 gave power to a City Council to "purchase or ex- propriate sites for industrial pur- poses or industrial operations." Clause 3, gives a similar power by a general vote. Previous to 1929 this could not be done but the Council, under this Act, must be very careful how they buy or how they expropriate, because after possessing these lands they cannot be "sold or rented' without the '"'consent of a judge." These lands cannot be pur- chased with overhanging 'restric- tions or reservations" of any kind. They are to be purchased for one purpose and one purpose only, namely, "industrial sites or indus- trial operations." The matter of the Council enter- ing into a covenant with Mr. Con- ant ds to the size, cost and loca- tion of particular industries upon the proposed site in Cedardale for "industrial operations" is ab- solutely beyond the power of the city council, The contemplated action of the council is without legal sanction or authority of any kind. Under the Act the council can only '"'purchase" outright or '"'expropriate." May I say a few words in regard to the proposed. covenant with Mr. Conant that no "obviously ob~ Jectionable" industry shall be lo- cated on these premises. This is a beautiful bargain to make with an astute legal gentleman. Every industry that ever operated is 'obviously objectionable" to somebody, but everybody is pro- tected in this regard by the com- mon law of the land. Every man has the right to enter action against any other man for dam- ages, for noises, nuisances and odors of "objectionable" indus- tries. True, this action is seldom taken for the very obvious reason that most operators of factories, etc., fight damages so vigorously that results are not generally satis- factory and in many cases the in- dividual cannot pay. . Now in. Mr Conant's case he mildly and blandly asks the city to stand behind the covenant so that when he sees anything which occurs to his astute mind as '"'ob- viously objectionable" he can take action against the city, while all other citizens = of a common country will be obliged to sue the individual, These restrictions, reservations and special covenants are all il- legal and without warrant, and only tend to prevent the possibil- ity of industrial development in the neighborhood of Oshawa Harbor. It is not my purpose to continue to exert myself in order to ad- vance the: harbor, and then sit quietly by and see every device called into being to retard its de- velopmnt, or to render it useless after the country has spent so much money to bring it into being. Apart from a public view of the situation, as a private citizen of Oshawa I have my rights, and I am impelled to say, both as a public man and as a private citi- zen, that the Council of the City of Oshawa has my blessing and a helping hand in taking action vn- der the Act cited as Chapter 59- 19, George V, but in carrying out any transaction under this law there is no need of meetings "in camera" like so many Montana horse traders, nor any saction for reservations, restrictions or coven- ants of any kind. In trying to - get land for an "industrial site" we are not bound to approach the 'ancestral do- mains" surrounding the harbor as though we were about to purchase one of "The Holy Places" in Pales- tine. The law of the land makes full provision for all ordinary em- ergencies and under this common law we should all be content to live and do business. I am so thor- oughly convinced of the gross wrong, innocently being committed by an otherwise good council, that I have instructed my 'solicitor, Mr, A, C. Hall, to move at once to quash this bylaw as soon as it is passed by thé council of Oshawa, and to move to quash any other bylaw that infringes upon the com- mon rights and common welfare of a common citizenship. Company Has Prospects of Locating New Industry on the Land Recommended to Council PRESENTATION T0 | KING ST. SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKER F. C. Hoehn Honored on Eve of His Departure From the City As a token of apreciation for near- ly a score of years spent in the Sun- day School work of King street Uni- ted church, the Sunday school board ofthe church last night presented F. C. Hoehn, musical director of the school, with a handsome club . bag. Mr. Hoehn leaves with his family on Thursday to reside at Point au Bar- il, in Northern Ontario, having sold his rocery and provision business on Albert street. : Members of the board gathered for the presentation last evening at the home of H. N. Hagerman, El- gin street east, An address was read by Samuel Gommow, superintendent of the Sunday school, and the pres- entation was made by Mr. Hager- man. The address read: "Dear Mr. Hoehn: It was with very genuine and sincere regret that we learned of your intention to sell your business and move away from out city. You had been so long in con- nection with our church that we came to look upon you as a fixture, but recent events have confirmed the early rumor and now the time has come to say good bye. "Needless to say, you will be miss- ed. For many years you have been a most familiar figure about our church and Sunday school. For the major art of that time you have been the leader of our singing, and in this you have shown rare tact, fine skill, and real ability. You have left a very difficult position for some one to fill. But in addition to this, your re- lation to the boys and girls of the School and Church has been an en- viable one. At the annual Sunday school picnics in your leadership of the sports, and at the annual "At Home" in your oversight of the gam- es, you have rendered a very unique and helpful service. "And now as a slight token of our esteem and good wishes, we ask you to accept this gift, with the hope that it may be an ever-increasing remind- er of your many friends in King street church, and of the many happy years. of friendship and service we spent together in Sunday school work. May we express the hope that the change in climate may be bene- ficial to Mrs. Hoehn's health, and that you all may enjoy many years of health and happiness." Signed 'on behalf of the school, Samuel Gummow, superintendent: E. J. Goodman, secretary; H. N. Hager- man, treasurer, tr --------------. RUSSIAN EMISSARY SENT T0 LONDON Win Begin Negotiations for Restoration of Diplo- matic Relations Moscow, U.S.8.R., July 24.--The Soviet government believes that negotiations on the procedure for restoration of trade and diplomatic relations with Great Britain can be concluded quickly, and to that end Ambassador Dovgalevsky in Paris was instructed today to proceed to London. A note to this effect, signea by Vice-Commissar for Foreign Af- fairs L, M. Karakhan, was handed last night to Norwegian Charge D'Affaires Danielsen, who present- ed the recént communication from Great Britain. . The note said: '""The government of the Union of Soviet Socialisf Re- publics takes cognizance of the statement of the British govern- ment to restore diplomatic rela- fons which had been severed nei- ther by the fault nor the desire of the Union Government, and greets this statement in the interest of both countries and in the cause of peace. "The government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics be- lieves it necessary to establish a durable agreement on controversial questions in the shortest possible time, and is of the opinion that such a durable agreement is pos- sible of achievement only through equal treatment for both sides and by maintenance of mutual dignity and respect. "The Union government accepts the rights and obligations of states in diplomatic relations between them as long as the government of Britain accepts these rights and obligations. " h x y "Understanding tain merely proposes a preliminary exchange of views, solely on the question of procedure and subse- juent discussions and not their substance, and believing that such negotiations on procedure may be concluded within. a very short time, the government of the U.S.S. R. instructs M. Dovgalesky, ambas- sador to France to go to London - for this purpose." _ lic. that Great Bri-| Oshawa Industrial Founda- tion, Limited, To Renew Its Activities in Securing Its Necessary Capital of $100,000 to Start Opera- tions ih PLANS OUTLINED = BY LEON FRAZER Diversification of -Industry to Provide Allthe-year Round Employment, Is Object Behind the Com- pany's Efforts Believing that the Oshawa' city council will, in its next meeting on Tuesday, August 6, apprgve the ac- tion of the committee of<the whole last Friday night, in deciding to recommend to the council the pur- chase of 15 acres of land on Sim- coe street south for industrial sites the Oshawa Industrial Foundation, Limited, will now coptinue its ac- tion to secure the sale of shares to the minimum amount of $100, 000, Leon Frazer, gecréetary of the company, stated this morning.
