l {ITE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1931 Wife Can 1 estify Against Husband, Montreal, May 21.--The sec- ion of the Criminal Code which provides that a wife cannot give testimony where her husband is the accused, was invoked Tues- jay morning in the Court of King's Bench by Guy Perron, sounsel for Henri Clement on trial for alleged attempted mur- der. Mr, Justice Wilson .over- ruled Mp. Perron's objection. His Lordship. mitted the ap- plicability of the section in ques- tion, where third parties are con- cerned, but -peinted out that in this case it is the wife whom the husband is charged with shoot- ing. The long arm of the law is forcibly illustrated in. trial. According to Dan, P. Gillmor, K. C., Crown prosecutor, it was on January 18, 1918, that Clement fired a number of revolver shots at his as she returned fo her e of employment, 'the residénce "of "Mr. Justice Desaul- niers, on Sherbrooke street east. Clement disappeared and it was not until March 20 last that po- lice were able to serve the war- rant for his arrest. Annie Beaubien, wife of Cle- ment, was the first witness call- ourt Declares ed by the Crown. She is a kindly matronly woman in appearance. She related that previous to the encounter with her husband when he fired his revolver sev- eral times at her, their relations had been strained. She was earn- ing her own living and making every effort to avoid him and live 4 peace. She told the Court that she still carried a bullet in her body. Dr. Mercier, one of the doctors who attended her when she was shot, has since died. Madame Desaulniers gave cor- roboratory evidence. The case is continuing.

After a lengthy argument a writ was issued in the case vaken by Miss Annette Bornut, ordering the transfer of the record in the Recorder's Court to the Superior Court for review, In connection with the padlock proceedings, the action of the Recorder's Court was attacked by Albert Theberge, K.C., repre- senting the plaintiff, on the main ground that the propefty owner was not given an opportunity of appearing in the court to defend her interests. In view of the fact that the city by-law gave to the Recorder's Court the right of closing premises, and made no provision for property rights be- longing to the property owner as distinct from the" tenant, it was contended that the law was ultra vires. Further, in the present in- stance, the point was raised of the right of Director of* Police Dufresne to execute a judgment which he himself had given in his earlier role of Recorder.

REPORT ON HUDSON INSURANCE RATES Statement Is Issued By Imperial Shipping Committee London, May 21.--The second report of the Imperial Shipping Committee on Hudson Bay mar- ine insurance rates for 1931 says it is understood the Canadian Government intends to open the port of Churchill for traffic next September. "Since the grain elevator apparently will not be ready before Sept."15, and as only a portion of the wharfage accommodation will be completed, it is evident shipments of grain from Churchill must be limited during 1931 to a few vessels only," the report declares, The report also says the Joint Hull Committee has agreed to reduce the rate of the additional premium for suspension of the North American warranty with respect to vessels passing Cape Cidley inwards on and after Aug. 10 and leaving the last landing port in Hudson Bay on or before Sept. 30. The reduction will be from 60 shillings to 50 shillings per 100 on insured value, plus two shillings per ton on gross registered tonnage. The committee also agreed to extend the limit for sailing from Church to Oct. 7 for a ten per cent. increase on the above date, and will permit a further exten- sion up to Oct. 15 for a 25 per cent, increase on the above rate. The rates are only to be regard- ed as current for the 1931 season and are the minimum figures. Underwriters reserve the right to quote a higher rate for any ves- sel below proper standards of ef- ficiency. Canadians should accord all possible publicity to the facilities available at Church for discharg- ing, loading and anchordge be- fore the opening of the 1932 season, the report says, because it may affect the rates of addi- tional premiums recommended by the Joint Hull Committee for that season, and also because the possibility of demurrage must be taken into account dn finding charters, The report concludes that the rates for pilot service. to take vessels through Hudson Straits would at least be pro- hibitive, and suggests a more thorough detailed survey of the Straits, HOUSE FIGHT NEAR OVER DOLE CHANGE London, May 21.--The Labor Government will strike another snag shortly-- the question of reform of the dole. It is already apparent that the whole trades union movement will vigorously oppose any dras- tic reform of the scheme of un- employment insurance, And yet it is generally believed that the Royal Commission which has been investigating the dole for many months, in its interim re- port shortly can only recommend reducing the scale of payments and at the same time increasing the contributions from workers employers and state, For the unemployment insur- ance fund has a huge deficit and is running into more debt at the rate of $5,000,000 a week, so the necessity of drastic revision is obvious. When 'the report is laid down and the time comes for the Gov- ernment to act upon it, the Prime Minister will likely be em- barrassed by many of his sup- porters, Will Thorne, secretary of the General Workers' Union, declares that its 19 representa- tives in the House of Commons are in duty bound to vote against any radical changes--even if such action involves defeat of the "SALADE" TEA The Tea that comes to you, "Fresh from the Gardens" CHARLOTTETOWN BISHOP INSTALLED Charlottetown, P.E.I.,, May 21. --With all the impressive and colorful ritual of the Roman Catholic Church, His Most Rev- erend Excellency Rt.
