'YOUNGER BROTHER OF CONTRACTOR IS UNDER ARREST Leonard Franceschini, Brother of James, Ar- rested by R.C.M.P, Toronto, Sept. 10. Franceschini, younger brother of James Franceschini, wealthy Ital- ian-born Toronto contractor, who was interned in June, was arrest- ed Saturday in Toronto by the Royal Canadian Mounted Polig® under Defense of lations for internment. Known as the "front man' tracting business, ceschini was apprehended in the offices of the Dufferin Construc- tion Co., where he is listed as presi- dent. He is also president of the Dual Mixed Concrete and Mater- ials Ltd. and the Dufferin Paving and Crushed Stone Ltd, according to the returns to the provincial secretary's department. Leonard Franceschini had been a frequent visitor at | Queen's Park, apparently negotiat- ing on contracts held by these com« panies with the Government, The Toronto office of the R.C.M P. announced briefly today that he had been arrested. It is believed that he has been or will be transferred to the same internment camp where his brother, James, is superintendent construction. , Although Leonard Franceschini had been associated for years with his brother in the contracting busi- id Leonard Canada Regu- | for | his brother in the lucrative con- | Leonard Fran- | recently | of road | THE OLD HOME TOWN YOULL HAVE TOWAIT--- ITS THEIR ANNUAL \] j BATH --- THEY WONT COME /A UNTIL THE SUN COMES OUT AND DRIES EM OFF!

His brief men- in the press came in 1933 when an Italian attempted to extort $80,000 from James and Leonard Frances- chini. The Italian was captured and imprisoned for six years During recent years, Leonard Franceschini succeeded to the presi- dencies and directorships formerly held by his brother in the construc- tion companies. However, despite the transfer of titles, James Fran- ceschini remained the 'power be- hind the throne." From 1928 to 1940, the Franceschini companies | obtained contracts totalling $11, | 772.268 from the Ontario govern- { ment. The directory lists Leonard Fran- ceschini's home as Myrtle Villa, 415 Lakeshore Road, Mimico, the es- tate on which James Franceschini expended an estimated $250,000. | The output of central electric sta- | tions in Canada during the first seven months of 1940 totalled 17,.- ! 583,735,000 kilowatt hours as against | | 15.950,096.000 in months of 1939. the first seven Gravel Pit Worker Buried By Cave-In Belleville, Sept. .10.--A cave-in of from 40 to 50 tons of sand in a northern Prince Edward County gravel pit gave its own warning to 18-year-old Norman Dall of this city, but not in time to prevent kim from receiving severe body bruises and lacerations when he was partially buried, Dall was working in the pit with Morley Smith, Belleville trucker, the head. Looking upward at the overhanging ledge of gravel and sand he noticed sure, and leaped away a before the loose material downwards. The outer lip of the earth caught Dall as he jumped, partially submerging him and roll- ing him under the truck He was rushed to his home after being extricated by Smith, where he was attended by Dr. R. A. Flynn second The output of Canada's sugar re- fining industry in 1939 amounted to 1,156.536.834 pounds, an increase | of 113,124220 pounds over 1938. | MUGGS & SKEETER That Body of Yours By James W. Barton, M.D. A LEFT HANDED CHILDREN I have spoken before of seeing school children beaten over the knuckles with a ruler, pointer or strap when they used their left hand in writing. We were taught at that time that everybody should write with the right hand; in fact that using the left hand was a sign that the individual was not normal, not es bright as he should be. Fortunately, the idea that child- ren who were born left handed should be taught and made to use the right hand when writing was dropped some years ago. Further, it was found that left handed young- sters were just as bright, if not brighter, than those who were right handed. Unfortunately, there are some par- ents and teachers who still believe that the left-handed youngster should be made to use his right hand when writing and these youngsters are forced against their will to use the right hand for writing or other purposes where they would naturally use the left hand, That this forcing of the youngster to use his right when a small stone struck him on | a widening fis- | crashed hand may affect the youngster men- tally is reported by Dr. Vera Kar- i novsky, University of Montpellier, in Arnals of Medicine and Physiology. | Dr. Karnovsky made a study of 2,500 | children This study showed that when a youngster, born left handed, is. from the time he begins to use his hands, made to use his right haad, it results in the child's being slow in learning to walk, and learn. 'One is left handed or one is right handed." Parents and teachers | should stress that left-nandedness is not a defect, not something to be | hidden, but is just as naturel as having blue eyes or red hair, and children should be permitted to use | the left hand as naturally as use of the right is developed. By allowing | the youngster to do the "natural" | thing, that is use his left hand, there will be no emotional disturb- amces or conflicts to hinder his men- tal and physical progress. ON THIS DATE - By -- FRED WILLIAMS Seventy years ago (September 10, 1870) Colonel Garnet Wolseley, who had commanded the Ontario and Quebec Rifles to the Red River, left Fort Garry for the east, after hav- ing been entertained at government house. Before leaving, he paid his compliments both to the regulars and to the Canadian militia, say- ing of the latter. "I can say without flattery that, although I have served with many armies in the field, I have never been associated with a better set of men. . . . You have only to attend as carefully to the orders of the officers to whose command I row hand you over, as you have done to mine, to become shortly a force second to no corps in her majesty's service, I bid you all good-by with no feigned regret. I shall ever look back with pleasure and pride to having commanded you, and, al- though separated from you by thousands of miles, I shall never cease to take an earnest interest in your welfare." Years later, when a field marshal and ga-viscount, in his "Story of a Soldier's Life," he made a notable prediction concerning Canadian sol- diery when he said: "I can draw no distinction between the relative merits of the military value of the regular soldier and the Canadian militiaman who went with me to Red River; each had arrived at Prince Arthur's Landing with spec- ial attributes peculiarly their own, but by the time Fort Garry had been occupied each had acquired the military value of the other. What it is that a large army of such men under some great leader could not achieve I, for one, know not." Had he been alive in 1915-18 he would have found the answer to his prediction, for what better jus- tification for his pride in Canadian soldier men could there have been than the record of the Canadian Army Corps? Or today when we are also proud of the share of the "Battle for Britain" of the Royal Canadian Air Force! THOUSANDS LAND *INMIDDLEEA British Transports . Nothing of Italians On Voyage Cairo, Sept. 10.--Britain has inforced her Middle East fightin forces with thousands of landed from the biggest convoy ev to reach Egypt. A long line of big transpo splashed into the light green wate of the harbor after an uneven! voyage from Britain in which th reported not a single Italian wi ship sighted. The exact numbe: of troops d embarking was not disclosed, b officials said there were "seve: thousand." They will be dispatch ed immediately to fronts "som where in the Middle East." In addition to ground troop there were many Australian airme hundreds of nurses from Englan and Scotland and several hundre reinforcements for the navy an Royal Air Force. | Many of the troops, brought fi Britain by the Red Sea route, mo ed out under full equipment aboa 10 and 15-sar trains apparent! bound for duty in Egypt and Pales tine. Some continued aboard the ships to other ports. "We are glad to be here evel though we hated to leave © families in England," said one so agier, "But we know our fo | there can give Hitler more than h wants and we've come down here clean up the Italian side of. t! war." "We'll wind this thing up as soo as possible," commented an office The new batch of troops is posed largely of men who fought § France and represents a cross seq tion of the British Army. The were infantrymen, large units of en gineers, artillerymen and ox nicians. troop Vessels entered inwards at Can dian ports from the cea during t year ended March 31, 1940. totall 30,648 with an aggregate tonnag] of 33,523,965 tons.
