In reply, Shearer said Govern- ment records of October, 1918, con tained two vouchers totalling $260 000, and bearing the initials "C.M.S.' Vouchers Asked For McClintic also asked Mellon if th two vouchers contained an itemized account covering such expenses, "If Charles M. Schwab, President | of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, | drew approximately $500 a day as ex- | penses while serving this Government during the last war," the Oklahoman said in a formal statement made pub- lic with his message to the Treasury head, "it should be investigated, or | such action will be 'reflected on his honesty as long as he lives" The statement also directed atten- tion to Shearer's asnwer 10 a ques tion dea with the charge that Frank B. Kellogg, former Secretary of State, had "instructed Messrs Hunter, Palen and Smith of the Bethlehem Company to get rid of Shearer, their paid lobbyist and ob server at Geneva," under threat that a Government suit against the com pany would be pressed Sum of Claim Named Shedrer was quoted setting at $15,000,000 the Gove nent's claim against the steel company. Asserting that Kellogg had not de- nied issuing these instructions, the Oklahoman said some investigating committee shauld give these facts to the public, and if this sum is due the | Government, steps should be taken to collect it, "Unless these charges are proper- ly answered by some one," he con- cluded, "I propose to intrdouce a resolution creating a new committee for the purpose of obtaining such in formation," Senate committee began an inve tigation into the activities of Shearer several months ago, but. adjourned its hearings shortly before the arrival in this country of Premier MacDonald of.

Great industrial development throughout western Canada which in the last two decades has brought | the annual gross value of manufac- tured articles produced in the west- ern provinces to $600,000,000 was described recently by John F. Bweeting, industrial commissioner | of the Canadian Pacific Railway, in an address to officers of the com- pany at Winnipeg. "Those of us who<have lived through and watch- ed western Canada developments during the last 20 years are as-s | sured as to the future of that part of the Dominion," he said. "Railway conditions as they exist in Canada to-day are readily com- prehensible and we are in the for- | tunate position of being able to as- sure our shareholders that the de- creases represent the result of an extraordinary combination of con- ditions and that the rallways have not failed in efficiency or other- wise," stated E. W. Beatty, chair- man and president of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway, in an address recently at the Royal York Hotel, at the annual meeting of the Com- mertial Travellers' Association of | Canada. Mr. Beatty added that the exceptional repeated in situation in 1929 was and not likely to be subsequent years.

They were faced, however, by strong oppo- Sition, and, strange to say, G. W. Bunker, one of the new aspirants to municipal honors, headed the poll with a total of 565 votes. His margin over Alderman Peter Macdonald, however, was very slight, only twelve votes separating them, Mr. Macdon- ald having a total of 546. Thomas Hawkes, a candidate with many years of previous experience on both city council and board of education, cap- tured the third seat by a substantial margin, with 480 votes, A. S. Mc- Leese, who ran fourth, having 373 and S. G. Carnell, another alderman of 1929, being last with 337. The vote jin this ward was particularly heavy, and a keen contest was waged between the five good candidates, other New n In the Southwest Ward, aonther new alderman was elected in the per- son of W. J. Sulley, who took the seat formerly occupied by Ald. Dan Douglas, who has retired from muni- cipal life for the present. William Boddy, one of the 1929 Seprassutatipt of the ward, however, headed poll, second place going to another alderman of last year, S. H. Jackson, with Mr. Sulley in third place by a safe margin. Fred Kirby, who ran fourth, was over one hundred votes behind Mr, Sulley, while Percy Mor- den, the last on the list, polled a bare total of 105 votes. Cedardale Ward The contest in Cedardale was something of a runaway for the three men who were elected, two of them, Robert McDonald and Edmund Jackson, being the retiring aldermen, and the third, J. B, Waterous, being a new member of council. The three clected men were very close to each other, Mr. Watrous being first with 254 votes, Mr. Jackson second with 248 and Mr. McDonald third with 246. FE. McMullen, who was the other candidate in the fight, was far behind, his total being only 79 votes. As a result of yesterday's clections, the 1930 council is a fairly even di- vision of aldermen of experience and of new blood. The new members, however, give every promise of fitting in well into the working of the city council, and they are expected to take a prominent part in the. council pro- ceedings once they have become ac- customed to the operations of that body.
