ORMISTON COUNTY GAOL 1S OVERCROWDED SAYS INSPECTOR Prisoners Sleep on Floor -- Bed Bugs Make Place Like Slaughterhouse A recommendation that some steps be taken to provide increased accomodation at the County Gaol at Whitby in order that prisoners may not have to use the floors for beds, and also to prevent over- crowding of cells, is contained in pxtracts from a report of the gov- ernment inspector, J. A. Norris, for- warded to the County Council for Monday afternoon's consideration by Sheriff J, F. Paxton. The inspector made a recent in- spection of the gaol, and reports that owing to overcrowding condi- tions prisoners were sleeping on the floor, while more than two man were in a cell. Bed Bugs Are Bad Investigating a complajnt from prisoners that the cells were over- run with bed bugs, the inspector reports that he found the white- washed walls looking like a young slaughterhouse, with blood all spat- | tered over them where prisoners | had killed the bugs. The inspector says that on questioning the gaoler he admitted that this was so, stat- ing that he had to use whitewash almost every day to keep the place decent-looking. In talking the mat- ter over with the gaoler, the turn- key and the gaol surgeon, these of- ficials stated that they had done everything that lay within their power to overcome the bug nui- sance, and admitted that they were beaten, The inspector recommends the Council to get in touch with a To- ronto chemical company which has ways and means of exterminating the bug nuisance. The inspector notes that since his last visit modern steel cells, con- trolled by a leaver lock system, have been installed, also that three naw standpipes with hose attached have been placed in the gaol proper for fire protection. The inspector recommends the provision of extra accomodation for prisoners to prevent them from sleeping on the floor and in cells with two other prisoners which are only large enough for two. Several minor improvements to the bujlding are recommended. The serving of tea once a day to the prisoners, in accordance with rules and regulations governing common gaols, is recommended. Council referred the report to the County Property Committee for consideration. Manchester, N.H., Nov.

The agree- ment also provides that the pro- vince will pay to the town one third of the expenditures for excess re- lief, in addition to one third to be paid by the Dominion Government, commencing October 1st, and ter- minating March 31st, 1931. Such excess relief shall be ascertained each month by deducting from the amounts expended for the same pur- pose in the corresponding month in the previous year, Publie Utility Commission will proceed as soon as possible with the water main construction program which will give employment to about 50 men for a period of five or six weeks, and whieh has coun- cil's approval.

Whithy's share will be $2,000, but inasmuch as special leg islation will have to be secured to allow the town to issue debentures for this work, the Council decided to take no action until the Pro vineial Government is heard from definitely on this point.

"The St. Lawrence and Great Lakes Waterways" was the subject of a splendid address delivered by G. 11. Sadgowlick, K.C,, of Montreal before members of the Women's and Men's Canadian Clubs on Mon- day afternoon and evening. Mr, Sedgewick spoke to the ladies' club in the afternoon and to the men's club in the evening. The address described the present waterway and the proposals to deepen it to 27 fect, to allow ocean going ves- sels to takeg rain from Fort Wil- liam to the ocean without the ne- cossity of unloading and reloading at Prescott, Slides were used to make sections of the waterways and and the suggested decpenings clear to the audience, The Project "The essence of the St. Law- rence Waterway project," the speaker stated, is the competition between various routes and meth- ods of transportation for the trade of the interior of the North Am- erican continent, . The industrial- ized areas of North America, the bulk of the population, and the greatest productive areas lie near or on the Great Lakes system fin the centre of the continent, The two greatest routes to the centre are the St, Lawrence River and the low-grade between Albany and Lake Erie; these are the greatest competitors. The St. Lawrence deep waterway is a project to deepen the existing water way and improve the competitive position of the waterway with the Erie- Iydson and other competing rail or water routes, The problem concern." of the waterway he continued, "A.

The Obstacles "The St. Lawrence-Great Lakes waterway is an engineering pro- Ject to construct a twenty-seven foot navigation channel from tide- water to the head of the lakes by improving the St. Lawrence river, by completing the Welland Canal and by improving other chanels, "In its simplest, clearest terms, the waterway means the removal of the barriers between Prescott and Montreal, and smaller barriers in the upper lakes, "The existing obstacles today are flve in number," he added. "1, St. Mary's River, 2, Detroit River, 3. International Rapids, 4. Soulanges Rapids, h.Lachine Rapids. "The question may be asked: 'What has been done?' Already two great sections of the 27 foot waterway are under way, The Welland Canal will be available for navigtion in the spring. The Sou- langes section one of the 3 great obstacles in the St, Lawrence, is being removed by the construction of a joint navigation and power project south of the river by the Beauharnois Power Corporation, and will be available for naviga- tion when locks and navigation works are decided upon. "There is . another proposal, namoly, that the waterway should be constructed by and for Canada only. No definite engineering pro- ject to construct this waterway has been worked out, nor has a defl- nite agreement or alteration of agreements been proposed with re- gard to existing American rights in international and Canadian wa- ters. The question was, however, raised in the Committee of the Senate and the Department of Railways and Canals, in a memor- andum prepared by D. W. Me- Lachlan and G. A. Lindsay, en- ginears, replied that the cost was the principal objection to a water- way in solely Cangdian territory. 'A third and reffted probelm fis the diversion of water from Lake Michigan through the Chicago San. itary and Ship Canal. The relation of this question to the waterways fs this: By diverting 8,500 cubic feet per second, the levels of the lakes and channels have been low- ered, in soma sections, by 0.5 and 0.6 feet. This has a most serious economic consequence for shippers, Tt means lighter loads for the same length of journey and great loss to shipping companies. "A factor which is perhaps the priveipal driving force behind the demand of the States in the centre of the continent for the waterway, / fs the greatest cost of moving goods from the interior to the coast than from the coast to au- other via the Panama Canal. "The rail rates from the centre of the continent to the Atlantic are high- er than shipping rates for similar tonnage from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic via the Panama Canal, The Blance Sheet "The difficulty of estimating the cost is great enough, but the diffi- culty of dividing the total cost be- tween power and navigation, be- tween Canada and the United States, between the Canadian gov- ernment which controls navigation and the Canadian provinces which claim to control the power, pre- sents a still greater difficulty, This difficulty has not been met, and though there are various proposals by the Canadian Government, no one proposal has been accepted by all parties concerned, and the di- vision of costs is therefore an open question." 30 U5, BANKS SUSPEND BUSINESS Most of Closings for Short Periods to Protect Depositors Nov. 4 18.

Born in Mexico, in San Luis Potosi July 18, 1910, Lupe grew up in a country where mountain scenery is divinely beautiful, Her education was received at the Lady of the Lake Convent in San Antonio, Texas, but there was al- ways summer, and a return trip to her beloved Mexico. Her fa- ther was a Colonel in the Mexican Army. her mother an opera singer, When the time came for her to try her lock as a dancer in Los Angeles, it was tho mountains which held her there. She had feared homesickness after what she calls "a lcetle while," but the great hills surrounding her adopt- ed city reminded her of Mexico and soon she was satisfied, At first thought, it was difficult ing role in 11's E longed to get, for Lupe is essen~ tially ambitious----not the sleepy, gentle type, but a girl who is give en to wild, romantic dreains which thrill her and make her aspire to do big things, Bhe had come to Los Angeles because an American who had seen her dance and heard her sing in Mexico City thought she would be ideal for a role in a musical comedy which was being cast in Los Angeles, But when the director saw her he decided Lupe was too young for the part. Undaunted, the girl was deter- mined to find work and it was not long until she was cast for a spe~ cialty number in the Music Box Revue which was then playing in Hollywood, Not once had she thought of entering pictures, for at that time Lupe considered herself a "homely leetle girl."
