The government, because it . was able to scare up a few more mem- bers, came out on top--86-76-- but the margin was too close for com- fort, even though the administra- tion's over-all majority is compara- tively small. The Conservatives with only about one-half their strength in the House, gathered support from the .C.F. and Social Credit ranks but it wasn't enough to clinch a victory. The payoff came behind closed caucus room doors a few days later when party whips and leaders re- portedly laid down the law to party memberships at large that there would be no more going home for week-ends or sneaking away to the movies. Since then, attendance has improved remarkably. The St. Valentine Day vote in it-* self was not important. But it was conceivable that had the opposition won out Prime Minister Mackenzie King might have felt called upon to demand a vote of confidence. Living Memorial (Continued from Page 1) reporte¢ that one-fourth of the building had now been moved. The fourth section was put in place yes- terday afternoon and the concrete piers have been completed for two more sections. Moving Quickly Expressing the view that the moving was being doa: in a mini- mum of time, Mr. Wilkins predicted that judging by standards to date the job would he completed about the second week in April. Mr. Wilkins gave assurance that the building was well constructed and estimated its value at perhaps $25,000. He said if materials were available at all it would cost per- haps $35,000 to construct it at the present time. While it is planned to hold an anniversary meeting the middle of May at which comprehensive re- ports of the organization's activi- ties during the first full year of its existence will be available, brief re- ports given last night indicated re markable advance since last May when the organization came into being. Paying tribute to the support ac- corded to C.R.A. by the various civic bodies in the city, the presi- dent George A. Fletcher reminded the group of the responsibility to the cit .ens which this co-operation and assistance placed upon C.R.A. "We have to continue to demon- strate that the Community Recrea- tion Association is worthwhile for th2 people of Oshawa," he declared, adding that above all there was a r.sponsibility to the children and young people. In thanking the members of the executive and all others who had assisted in the undertaking, Mr. Fletcher mentioned in particular such groups as the Community Chest, the Board of Edueation, Parks Board, City Council, Red Cross .d the service clubs. "Rarely in the history of aay city has such a grand spirit of co- operation been shown," he said. Good Foundation Speaking briefly, the director of recreation, R. L. Coleman expressed the opinion that Oshawa was closest to having a "good, solid, sure re- creation program" than any other place he had been associated with. He said he felt the thinking and planning behind the movement had been sound and he stressed the value of a good foundation rather than a "flashy program." Mr. Coleman went on to say that during the first year of operation the endeavour had been to make a good general survey of the whole | situation, lay foundations in all forms of recreation and to co- operate with the groups already working in this type of work. . Commending the recreation di- rector on his work, Mr. Fletcher said he thought Oshawa had in its professional help "as good if not the best in the province." He added that different localities considering the organization of such a plan had been referred to Oshawa by the provinei:' authorities. In the financial statement for the year, the chairman of the finance committee, S. R. Alger reported that after disbursements totalling over $11,000 the organiration had on hand $984.36 in its current account and $10,000 in its savings account. Principal items of expenditure were salaries and staff approxim- ately $0,519; rent $508; sports sup- plies $478; station wagon $546; playground and eraft supplies $245 while receipts included the $15,000 grant from the Community Chest; donations totalling $6,137.37; pay- ment from the Red Cross in con- nection with swimming instruction amounting to $566.50 and the sum of $409.07 which was transferred from the original community mem- orial fund. It was pointed out by G. L. Rob- erts, chairman of the building com- mittee, that a separate capital fund had been set up to pay for the roving of the airport building. He sald that the larger service or- gc izations a the - city were now 1 Capit Yeing approached for contributions towards this fund. At last night's meeting the neces- sary by-laws and reso'utions were passed for the incorporation of the organization under the charitable organizations s- 'ion of the provin- cial Companies Act. 12 Horses, Groom Dead In Track Fire Hot Springs, Ark., March 1--(AP) --A groom burned to death and approximately 12 thoroughbreds perished in a fire which destroyed two stables early today at the Oaic Lawn race track. ; The groom was tentatively inden- tified by police as Junior Kindell, about 21. The body was found near the end of one of the Stables where the blaze was believed to have started. . Oak Lawn is in the midst of its annual 30-day racing season, and approximately 700 horses were stabled in the area of the fire. Some of the horses were led to safety. Others broke loose and several wandered into the downtown sec- tion of Hot Springs. The two destroyed barns were in the centre of the stable area. Two other barns were damaged. The flames were brought under control in two hours. Te Vancouver (Continuel from Page 1) A. G.

Expressing surprise at the "as- tounding lack of law enforcement," during the past few years in the gambling, morality and liquor squads, the report told of attempts made to bribe police; said no efforts had been made to close 13 known bawdy houses "openly operated for the last four years," and that book- making, dice and card establish- ments had heen running wide open. Highlight of the Hill report was the statement that five officers, in cluding former Chief McNeill ad- mitted being offered bribes by Louis and Harry Tisman, alleged bling operators but that "no at- tempt whatever was made by these officers to secure evidence ag t Tisman by methods that are w known in the most elementary of police practices." Torso Trial ' (Continued from Page 1) railway employee, told the court of painting the furmace front at 32 Carrick Ave. on March 13 last year. Under cross-examination he said the work was "ordered and paid for by Mrs. Dick's father, Donald MacLean, Mrs. Dick lived at 32 Carrick Ave. at the time her husband was killed and it was there, police have testi- fied they recovered pieces of hum- an bones from furnace ashegs These, so testimony has shown were from arms, legs and head -- the same parts of a man as were missing from the torso of John Dick. While Mrs. Dick lived on Carrick Ave. her father, jointly : charged with her and her friend, William Bohozuk, with the killing, lived on Rosslyn Ave, Police Sgt. Farrow followed Maw and told the court how the magne- tic nail picker was put to work and sald he was along when the tie clip was picked up. "Where did you first see the tie clip," asked special Crown prosecu- tor T. J, Rigney. "I saw it when Joseph Maw took it from his magnetic machine," said the policeman. A new and important piece of evidence was added to the Crown's case yesterday in the trial of Evelyn Dick for husband-murder, when a firearms expert identified a spent bullet as one that was fired from a gun found in the basement of Don- ald MacLean's home on Rosslyn Ave. MacLean is awaiting trial on a charge of slaying John Dick, the short-term husband of hjs- daugh- ter, Evelyn. : Raymond Cassells, superinten- dent of the Hamilton Street Rall- way, testified that during an in- terview with Mrs. Dick in Novem- ber, 1945, she accused her father of stealing from the company, where he was employed as a messenger, The spent bullet, its nose badly dented, was discovered by police about a month after the conclusion of Mrs. Dick's first trial last October. At that time she was found guilty and sentenced to death. No evidence was offered as to where the bullet was found.

D., Rev. D, M. Rose, delivered an address on "The History of The Church of England" before the members of St. George's Men's Club at their regular meeting this week, In his address, during which he make frequent reference to a chart showing the steady progress of the Church through the cen- turies, Mr. Rose spoke of the early traditions particularly those surrounding the founding, by Jo- seph of Arimathea, of Glaston-. bury Abbey, the ivy covered ruins of which still stand near the vil- lage of Avalon, and which inspir- ed Lord Tennyson's immortal po- em "The Holy Grail." Declared Mr. Rose with refer ence to documentary evidence, "Tertullian and Origen (208-240) indicate that the Church was es- tablished before the 3rd century. British bishops were at the Coun- cil of Arles in 314 A.D.; they con- sented to Nicea in 325 and were present at Arminium in 359 A.D" Early missionary activities in- cluded St. Ninian's vis't to Ire- land in 397 A.D, and that of St. Patrick who followed him shortly afterwards, he continued, Progressing through the peri- ods of the Norman conquest, the signing of the Magna Charta and following the reign of Hensy VIII and the Reformation, Mr. Rose stated that although there broke away from the parent Church certain bodies, namely the Congregationalists in 1586 follow- ed by the Baptists, Quakers, Presbyterians, Unitarians in turn and lastly in 1799, the Method- ists, the Church of England still remained "The Church of the Land." Of decided interest in this connection was 'his reference to the termination in 1885 of a 999- year lease by the Church to the government of a parcel of land, granted in the time of King Al- fred. In concluding, Mr. Rose stated that the Church of England has become the Anglican communion throughout the world, embracing the Protestant Episcopal Churc: | in the U.8.A., the Church of Eng. 'land in Canada, Nippon Sei Kok- wal of Japan, The Holy Catholic Church of China, The Church of | the Province of India, Burma and Ceylon, The Church of England in Australia, ete, Catholic and Iie- formed, National and World Wide. Following the voicing of the Club's appreciation by Mr, Ed Farrow and an interested discus- sion by the Club members, a hear- ty luncheon terminated the even- ing. : DAMAGED DOOR PANEL A collision between a truck drlv- en by Robert Young, 169 Park Road North, and a car owned by J. S. Latchford, St. Patricks, Browns- ville, Minnesota, resulted in a dam- aged right door panel and handle to the car. Young was attempting to back his truck into a space at 314 Jarvis Strect and Latchford was ate tempting to pass him, when the ac- cident occurred, it was reported by P. C. Stainton, Mark Described (Continuel from Page 1) 60 miles per hour. The witness went on to say that he proceeded east about 15 minutes later and because of traffic de- toured north of the highway to reach his home near Petticoat Creek. Here he had observed the vehicles that'had been in collision, identifying the truck in the aceci- dent as the one that had passed him previously. Two character witnesses for the defence were heard yesterday after- noon. Herbert Clark, Toronto contract- or, said Goodwin had worked for his firm for about seven months during the past year. rt He spoke highly of Goodwin's honesty and dependability as an employee. A. C. McCaul, director of the Citi- zen's Rehabiltiation Committee in Toronto to whom the accused had been referred by D.V.A. gave evi- dence as to Goodwin's active service record. He said that military rec- ords showed Goodwin to have served in the R.C.AF. from Oc- tober 1941 to August, 1945, attaining, the rank of L.A.C. He added that there were no regimental eatries on his record, indicating that there had been no serious misdemeanors.
