Flat rate customers who pay $3.00 per quarter, will pay $1.60 per tv months period. Metre customers who pay 16% cents per 100 cu. ft. will pay 12% cents per 100 cu. ft. Metre users, who use more than 2000 cu ft, per two months, and who pay 11 cents per 100 cu. ft, will pay 9 cents per 100 cu. ft, Service charges of 85 cents per two month period to domestic consumers will remain the same. Special charves for outside taps, etc., are to be unchanced. 'The date on' which the new rates' will be effective has not yet been set. Lengthy Discussion 4 It was only after long discussion and much figuring that the commis~ sion decided upon this action last night. Estimates were submitted by City Engineer W. C. Smith and ac- cording to his figures, the water de- partment will probably encounter a deficit of $7,500 under the iew rates. Although the commission is nc: in- creasing hydrant rentals which the city pay, the city council will be ex- pected to make up this deficit and will be notified that next year it will be charged $30,000 for fire protection, compared with the present total hv- drant rentals of about $12,000. * The motion fixing the new rates was moved by Fb. L. Mason and sec- ondeéd by Geo. C. Alichin. According to its terms, the commission's secre- tary, F. E. Hare, was instructed to prepare the necessary bvlaw setting (Continued on page 3) SEA CADETS ARE MIGHTY PRATSED BY MAJOR SHITH First Formal Inspection of Local Corps Was Held at Armories Last Night "You are a credit to yourselves and to the city," stated Major R.

This was made clear in a motion passed at the commission mecting last night by Geo. C. Allchin and F. L. Mason and which will be for- warded to the city council. In reducing the water rates the commission . realizes that it will have an approximate deficit ia the waterworks department of $7,500. It has long been its contention that the actual cost to the commission for fire protection is about $30,- 000 whereas the city is only charged approximately $12,000, It was thought-that the city should pay the full amount this year, but owing to the fact that the coun- cil prepared its budget before no- tice of increased charges could be given, it is felt impossible to bill the city for a larger amount. "This does not seem business- like, to reduce our' rates, commit ourselves to a deficit and then not charge the city for the amotnt which it ebould pay," ¥. L., Mason observed. Mayor Marks had given verbal assurance' that the city council would make good any defict which might be met in the water depart- ment as the result of reduced rates, chairman Stacey opinted out. If the commission collected $30,000 in hydrant rentals in 1932 he considered that it would more (Continued on page 3) MOSLEY JEERED AS SEAT GOES TD CONSERVATIVES Split in Labor Vote Is Blam- ed for Winning of Ashton Election by Opposition (Canadian Press Despatch) Ashton-under-Lyne, ~~ England, May 1--Faciung a hooting and ing mob, Sir Oswald Mosley, bril- liant young Socialist Leader, last night out-braved the bravest of them, and figuratively snapped his fingers in the faces of more than 1,000 disgruntled electors of °sh- ton-under-Lyne. The demobpstra- tion came shortly after the result of the by-election in this constitu- ency was announced. Lieut-Col. J. Broadbent, Conservativs, won the seat from J. Gordon, Labor, and A. Young, Mosley's New Pearly candidate--but had it not been for the Mosley candidate, it ap- pears, Labor would not have lort the seat. Broadbent polled 12.420 votes; Gordon, 11,005; and Young, 4,472. Given even two-thirds of Young's vote, which could be normally ex- pected, Gordon would have won the seat by a slight majority. As it was, the split in the Labor vote was too great a handicap for Gor- don. Angry Crowd Gathers The constituency has iver been a stormy rock in the political sea.

Claims Lack of Co-operation -- May Affect Coking Plant Plans oy Protesting that an assurance that space which had been allotted to allotted to the Canadian Fuels Ltd., a sister company to the Ontario Shore Gas Company, at the harbor for the purpose of storing coke, had been violated and the spaces used by other parties, G.. D. Conant, counsel for the two companies, has written a letter to the mayor and council pro- ttesting against the space reserved for this purpose being used by others, and asking that action be taken to have it cleared by Monday, on which day a cargo of coke for the company is expected to arrive. The letter was delivered to the may- or and city clerk this forenoon, but owing to the fact that Mayor Marks was not of the city, the clerk did not feel that any special and im- mediate action was necessary, and it will be summitted to the council at its meeting on Monday night. In adition to protesting against what is claimed to be a violation of the space reservation, the letter sug- gests that the incident referred to indicates a lack of co-operation on the part of local authorities with the principals of the Ontario Shore Gas Company Limited, 'and also suggests that this may have some bearing on the establishment in the city of a coking plant. The letter of Mr. Conant reads ac- testing against the space reserved follows: "To the Mayor and Council of the City of Oshawa, "Gentlemen:--Upon the comple- tion of the purchase of the local gas system our principals settled on the policy of establishing a coke mar- ket in this district forthwith by bringing in and distrituting be- tween 10,000 and 15,000 tons this year. This appeared to be advisable go that upon the completion of a coking plant in Oshawa a market and distribution organization would be available to take care of the out- put of such a plant. "We are instructed that on April 10 ample and satisfactory assurance was given that sufficient space at the harbor would be reserved and would be available to take care of our principals' requirements, This space was designated as all the area South of the metal cladgTree Line shed.

The cargo consisted of 1613 tons of coke, part of it being nut coke and part furnace coke. In addition, there was a small ship- ment' of foundry coke, brought here for test purposes as to the pos- sibility of developing a market for it in the city. Harry Mallett, of Mallett Bro- thers, informed The Times tuday that the coke would be sold in Osh- awa at $9.95 a ton, which price. he said was $2.05 less than the previous selling price for coke here. He also stated that, in dis- posing of it, his firm was anxious to co-operate with other coal deal- ers, and any dealers in tue city would be welcome to take 'riers for the coke and supply it to their customers from this shipment, and that they would be allowed their usual margin of profit to cover their services in taking che orders and making delivery. The purpose of the shipment, he said, was to educate th: people of Oshawa and District more tully in the use of coke, and to deveiop a larger market for this type o: fuel TMMIGRATION DOWN Ottawa, May 1.--The total num- ber of immigrants admitted to Can- ada during the fiscal year ending March 31st last was 88,223, as compared with 163,288 in the fis- cal year 1929-30.

Peterboro, May 1.--The feeling that the present Anglican Diocese of Toronto is too large to be managed properly, and that outlying districts are suffering because of the condi- tions, are not realized either by the Bizhop or by the Executive Com- mittee, led the clergy of the Arch- deaconry of Peterboro at their con- ference here yesterday to appove of a resolution from the Laymen's As- sociation, urging the appointment of a Suffragan Bishop of Peterboro. The original resolution, presented by Dr."G. S. Cameron of Peterboro, urged that the clergy of the Arch- deaconry memoralize the Synod in June with a view to asking the Sy- nod to take measures either to set up a separate Diocese of Peterboro or to appoint a Suffragan Bishop to reside within the Archdeacory of Peterboro. Difficulty in Administration The resolution pointed out that the present Diocese of Toronto was too large; that the proposed new diocese would be the twelth largest in Canada, numerically and finan- cially, and that the laymen of Pet- erboro were entirely opposed to the suggestion in the press and else- where to join Peterhoro to the Dio- cese on Ontario, Dr. Cameron, in presenting the resolution, pointed out that the Dio. cese of Toronto was the largest in Canada in point of numbers, and Anglican Clergy Declare Toronto Diocese too Large And that Church Suffers the administrative problems were such as to make it most difficult for the Bishop of Toronto to give all sections the attention they re- quired. | vital | Eventually the proposal to estab- lish a separate diocese was dropped because of financial obstacles, and the amended resolution supporting the suggestion of a Suffragan Bis- hop was approved by the clergy on motion of Rev. F. H. Mason of New- castle and Rev. N. C. Wallace of Campbellford. Committee Appointed A committee composed of Rev. T. C. O'Connor-Fenton of Norwood. and Rev. Dr. R. C. Blagrave and R N. Stuart of Peterboro was appoint- ed to present the matter to the Sy- nod. Members of the clergy present were virtually unanimous in their opinion that conditions called for a change. "This is a step taken in despera- tion," declared Rev. F. H. Mason. "The churches are falling away. The committee virtually all live in Tor- onto and know very little of the conditions outside, and they are headed by a man who is in the same category." The extent of the diocese was stressed hy Rev.

Me- Cormick Says Business Offered More Than the Wharfage Can Accommo. date Almost completely plugged up with coal and coke, with every available space cither filled or being held for cargoes expected within the next day or two, the Oshawa harbor has 'be= come the scene of a merry battle for space between those anxious to use its facilities. This battle reached a ciisis last night, when a cargo of ° over 1,600 tons of coke, consigned to Mallett Brothers, of this city, arrived at the harbor on the steamer Coal- haven, and before the cargn was fin- ally unloaded, there were some hectic scenes, and Col McCormick, wharfin- ger at the harbor, was called out of bed at two o'clock in the morning and asked to settle the dispute as to where this coke was to be landed. The trouble originated, according: to the facts which can be gathered, from the anxiety of various local concerns to make sure that s ; would be available for their pr Ly of coke and coal on arrival. A new company, known as the Canadian Fuels, Limited, a sister company:to the Ontario Shore Gas Compan¥, e Col. McCormick that it expected to start bringing coke in to the port of Oshawa, and that space would be required for a= bout 15000 tons. Col. McCormick was also asked by Mallett Brothers for space for' their cargo of coke. After a great deal of discussion and argument, spaces were allotted to the two firms, although in neither case were the principals satisfied that suf- ficient space had been allowed for their requirements. In view of the situation at the harbor, however, a notice was issued by Col. McCormick to the effect that space could not be definitely reserved for any shipper, that cargoes would be taken care of as the ships arrived. Yesterday afternoon it was thought that everything had been satisfactori= ly arranged. The space allotted to Mal lett Brothers for their cargo of coke, due last night, was fenced off, leav= ing a space to the north for the Val- ley Camp Coal Company, which is expecting a load of coal tomorrow, and a space to the south for the coke cargoes exnected within the next week or ten days by the Canadian Fuels Limited. Trouble Begins Last night the Coalhaven, with a cargo of coke, arrived, and then the trouble began. The space allotted to Mallett Brothers was filled up in quick order, and the coke piled as high as it could safely be piled, on account of the electric wires over= head. Then the argument started' as to where the balance of the cargo: was to be unloaded. Col. McCor~ mick was called out of bed; and on arriving at the harbor he gave de= finite instructions to the captain of the boat that the coke was not to . be unloaded on the property set aside for the Canadian Fuels Limited. This order was given in writing, and the: unloading of "*~ t was tempor- arily stopped. A telephone call by Harry Mallett to Ottawa brought back the information that the matter was entirely in the hands of Col. Me- Cormick, The ship's castain then called up the office of the owners in Montreal, and was told to unload the coal anywhere he could find a place for it, and to get his vessel out of Oshawa harbor on time, And, ignor~ ing the ordér of Col. McCormick, this is what he proceeded to do. Some Relief = Some relief was given to the situs ation by Mr. Miller, of the Valley Camp Coal Company, who gave pers mission for the unloading of as much of the cargo as possible on the lot which had been reserved for his com- pany. This property was also filled up, and there were still a few hun- dred tons to be unloaded." The bal- ance of the coke, amounting to some 700 tons, was then placed on the pro- perty which had been seserved for the shipments expected by Canadian Fuels, Limited, As a result of the situatiog which has developed, G. D. Conant, Fuels, Limited, has written a letter to the mayor and city council, tak- ing exception to the what is termed a lack of co-operation between his principals and the local harbor au= thorities with regard to the assur~ ance that space would be 'reserved for the cargoes of coke which ate floor.
