July 12--(CP)--An army chaplain today described for the International Missionary Coun- cil how he sheltered the sultry, rav- en-haired mistress of a Gestapo chief in Belgium in his Brussels home in return for the life of his ther. Col. Robert E. van Goethem, chief ranking Protestant chaplain of the Belgium Army, said the deal was made after the Belgian beauty got him an appointment to meet the Gestapo chief: his brother would be freed if he undertook to hide the woman from fellow Belgians after the Germans quitted the city. A pass liberating his brother was issued and in return he sheltered the woman for two months while Belgians combed the city for colla- borators, he related to the 120 mis- sionaries from 40 countries attend- ing the council's convention. ! "It was a ticklish spot to be in," said the tall, slender chaplain. the Allies or the Belgians found her, they would have accused me of shel But what a collaborator, oould I do? ' "Pinally my brother and IT went to the Beligan security officers and told them the whole story. They said to continue to hide her until the excitement in Brussels died down a bit." But about in a cell half at ency. In his conversations with the girl she seemed 'very sensitive" to any reproof for the life she was leading, he said. "Bo she turned over a new leaf?" he was asked, "I don't know. The last I heard | of her she was employed by tne British Secret Service."

After a half-hour questioning of Ernest Rosenfeld, father of one of the boys, Corporal Thomas W. Griffin, Ontario Provincial Police, Hearst Detachment, announced that he was proceeding into the aband- oned camp site to make a thorough examination of the camp itself and the supplies which are said to be on hand. The camp, situated in an aban. doned gravel pit, is four miles southeast of Pagwa. To reach it, police had to go by track motor to Pagwa River and by motor-canoe down river to the camp. There are no permanent buildings. The boys, ranging in age from 10 to 19 years, lived in small tents, two or three to each. According to some of the boys, eight of the counsellors and one of the senior campers have remained behind, determined to carry on for the balance of the summer. One youth .said the stay-behinds in- tended going through with the ori- ginal plan to canoe via Three Rivers to James Bay, about 160 miles. Mr. Rosenfeld said he had given those remaining "some money out of my own pocket" to 'carry on. Stating that the whole affair had been mismanaged from start to fin- ish, the parents' representative, Mr, Rosenfeld, revealed that the sum- mer's outing at the luxury north woods camp was to have cost $600 per boy. "Now there will be several thousand dollars additional cost in- volved in getting the boys safely home," he said. The $600 fee in- cluded air transportation to and from New York to the far-northern camp. "This man Gleason, who was manager of the camp, is a dreamer," Mr. Rosenfeld said. "He is also a human being. He is now bankrupt. There is no doubt of that, He is an impractical business man. He apparently had a dream, but did not have the wherewithal to put it across. I understand he had also been an insurance salesman," "Naturally, we don't feel very good about the whole thing," Mr. Rosen- feld continued. . "It has put us to 'a good deal of added expense, and caused much unnecessary worry. On top of all that, the bdys are missing their summer camp. Most of them will have nothing to do for the rest of the summer." One youth in the group was not particularly anxious to return to his Long Island home. "My father and mother are away in Europe. There's no one home and I haven't any money. So what's the answer?" Acting as spokesman for the group of 19 boys, Peter Rosenfeld, 11, said things "aren't really bad, when the food stopped coming."

Cameron died yesterday after a lengthy ill- { ness, She was born here in 1850, except for one or two days last week" 750 Timber Workers Due From Europe : \ Berlin, Tuly 12 (Reuters).--More than 750 timber workers from among displaced persons in the Bri- tish and American occupation zones will sail from Bremerhaven July 21 to work in Canadian lumber camps, the British zone headquarters of the International Refugee Organi. zation announced today. The men, mainly Balts and Uk- rainians and all single between 20 and 40 years old, were selected by Canadian officials for 'he work. They were expected to be allowed to apply for Canadian citizenship after the pormai qualifying period of residence. Also aboard the SS Hersey, will be nearly 200 displaced persons who will go as sugar beet workers to join relatives in Canada under a scheme prepared by the inter-gov- ernmental committee for refugees before it was. incorporated into the new international organization. Trunk Death Investigated San Luis Obispo, Calif., July 12-- (AP)--An unexplained Nevada ad- dress and a wide-open trail into Yosemite National Park led au- thorities toward Reno today in their hunt for Morley V. King, 46- year-old restaurant operator sought in connection with the trunk-mur- der of his Turkish-born wife. "Madame" King, 48, identified as the former. Portuguese Countess Christiana de Koheb, was found Wednesday in a rope-bound trunk; dead a week or more, strangled | with a man's scarf still knotted about her neck. The hunt for King swung from the Mexican border to Nevada to- day when Hathway unearthed a Mina, Nev. address from a date book among Mrs, King's effects. About the same time, Yosemit Park rangers found the licence number of King's car--also missing --in the park register at the south entrance in Mariposa county. Will Repaint Band Shell Early August Repainting of the McLaughlin bandshell at Memorial Park--both interior and exterior--is expected to get underway early in August, it was learned at a ard of Park Management meeting today. Dr. R. E. Cox reported on the probable cost involved and he was authoriz- ed to go ahead with the project. Fred Maundrell, board chairman, emphasized that a thorough job should be done even if the cost mounted: beyond previous estimates. "Let's do it well," agreed A. W. Armstrong. "It will be cheaper in the end." A financial statement for the first six months of 1947 revealed that expenditures had totalled $12,719.34. Total estimated expenditure for 1947, as pudgeted, was reported at $27,547.

Although the second floor, which is an addition to the original shop- ping space, is not yet completed, the stairway leading to it from the main floor has already been con- structed and a wall of mirrors at the side of the stircase has been installed. Opened in 1936, Zeller's is well- known for its dependable values and good service. One of the com- pany's fundamental business prin- ciples is "to serve the shopping public with merchandise of quality, priced for the thrifty" ... and to provide "intelligent courteous ser- vice" in pleasant surroundings. Renovated Store Larger It has consistently been the prac- tice of the company to keep in line with progressive methods of store layout and merchandise displays, and to cater to the public by spec- ializing in the sale of goods gener= ally classified as popular. The re- novated Zeller's is modern in de- sign, and with the addition of a new shopping floor to the original premises, the company will be able to serve the public with even more diversified assortments of popular merchandise than in the past. 13 Injured (Continued from Page 1) lying in a pool of blood and se seemed in bad shape."

The shooting melee began, War- den W. G. Worthy said, when one of the convicts attacked and sought to disarm him. He said the police ofifcers had been called to the camp earlier to aid prison guards in quelling a disturbance. Worthy said the officers and guards opened fire with shotguns and rifles when a group of 27 negro convicts raced toward a 12-foot fence enclosing their prison camp. 13 Felled The gunfire felled 13. Five were killed by the blast. Eight were wounded, one of whom died late Friday night in a Brunswick hospi- tal. Fourteen convicts, their hands raised high, surrendered. The Warden said none of the men was armed either with fire- arms or knives, but that several carried short iron bars and sticks. The convict who "incited" the | break for freedom was identified by the Warden as Willie Bell, whose assault upon him was a prelude to | the blast of gunfire. Bell was! wounded in the leg. How It Started Worthy said the trouble began at | the camp with the arrival yester- day of new prisoners who refused to work on a highway and were re- | turned to the prison camp about 4 p.m, when the men refused to leave the trucks in which they had rid- | den back to camp. The Warden | said he called for aid from county | police. His account continued: Police Chief Russell B. Hender- son of Glynn County told the pri- soners to obey the Warden and "cut out that foolishness." When the men left the trucks, they were lined up in the prison enclosure and addressed by Hender- son. At the end of the police chief's remarks, the men broke and ran, This "break", coupled with Bell's attack on the Warden, brought about the shooting. ~ H.S.

Pellow, Colborne Street East, who has passed the intramural examin- ations of the College of Education for High School Assistants, Type A. Miss Pellow graduated from the University of Toronto in Physical Education, Mayors Need Ottawa Plan Winnipeg, July 12--(AP)2-The executive of the Canadian Federa- tion of Mayors and Municipalities has before it a recommendation which, if implemented, will result in closer liaison between Ottawa and the municipal officers who are members of the C.F.M.M. The recommendation was left in the hands of the executive commit- tee yesterday in the form of a reso- lution sponsored by Mayor Harry Ainlay of Edmonton, which urged that the Federation appoint a full- time executive officer in Ottawa and study the advisability of mov- ing its head office from Montreal to Ottawa. Mr, Ainlay said that in making trips to the Capital on municipal business hé lost much time trying to -make appointments, The Fed- eraton needed a channel of ap- proach to the cabinet and a strong administrative and technical staff Tornado Hits At Cornwall ne, Cornwall, July 12 (CP).--A tor- nado that roared out of the south- western sky early last night caused minor damage over a three.acre- wide swath and disappeared into the north. No injuries were re. ported from the storm although tombstones were overturned in St. Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery, small trees were uprooted and power lines snapped. The storm passed through nearby Williamstown where most damage occurred. CAN | AFFORD TO GET AWAY FOR A HOLIDAY? You Can, If Alarm was spread the men raced Just 15 minutes before the dual- mixup at. the Highland Creek | bridge autos driven by Albert Whit- tingstall, 131 Scott Road, Toronto, | and Arthur Tait, 733 Euclid Avenue, Toronto, collided about a mile east of the bridge. Tait sustained head | and chest injuries. Constable Gilbert Robertson, who investigated the accidents, stated that a careless driving charge would be laid against Tait while | other charges would also be laid | against Bane and Rickelts, : You Plan With the holiday season here, many people have decided to spend vacations at home. "We'd like to go away, but how can we afford it?" they say. Robt. Argo, local Ban: of Mont- real manager, was discussing this problem yesterday. He thinks a lot of people could fit holiday travel into their budgets by a little extra planning, and the experience of many B of M customers confirms his views. "Every year more and more folks start a B of M account just for va- cationing, They set a reasonable fi- nancial objective and achieve it by depositing steadily every pay-day," Mr. Argo says. "By next holiday- time they're all set. It's a wonder- ful feeling . . . planning and saving add to the fun of the holiday . . . and it's never too soon to begin." Search For (Continued from Page 1) Eye-witnesses said that Colbran had escaped from the fire when he was told that Hawthorne was still in the building, and that Colbran bravely went back into the flames and smoke in search of Hawthorne. The fire destroyed the wool ware- house, estimated by manager Gor- don Monkma to contain between $500,000 and $750,000 worth of wool. An important additional loss will be inability to fulfil present con- tracts. Equipment Destroyed When the fire spread to the De- wart Mill property, flames roared through the seed mill, destroying valuable seed-cleaning equipment. It spread to sections of the flour mill and then the grain elevator The estimate of $1,500,000 damage was made by Fire Chief George Gimblett. The Chief added that cause of the fire will be investigated when interviews can be Leld with those employees v.ho escaped the flames. The fire started on the lower floor and spread so fast that it trapped employees on the second. third and fourth storeys. As the down fire escapes, while a few es- caped by means of a rear stairway. The front stairs and the escalator were blocked by flame and smoke. " Trapped Archie Hamilton, a grader on the fourth floor, said: "we were trap- ped in less than five minutes after the fire started, and had to use the fire escape. There were nine men working with m and all escaped." Harold Harding was the only one working with Hawthorne on the third floor. The 16-year-old Hard- ing sald that he saw Hawthorne "rush for the telephone as smoke started to come up the escalator. I decided I'd get out fast. I yelled 'Come on, Jim, or you'll get caught.' That was the last I saw of him." Smoke Blanket The smoky blanket lay over Pe- terborough for many hours after the fire was extinguished. Pieces of ash and burned-out refuse fell like rain in the fire area. Firemen used four hose lines on the Simcoe Street side of the seed mill until the blaze moved into the area of the building. Hoses were directed from the Dewart mill fire escape into the warehouse while other fire-fighters put out small blazes breaking out in other parts of the warehouse. When sections of the building cooled out from the hose lines firemen took" equipment inside the warehouse. Former Grain Men Government Agents London (CP). -- Food Minister Strachey said in the Commons £500,000 ($2,000,000). annually, plus expenses, is paid by the government to former grain importers who act as agents in bulk purchases. John Patton, Labor member of parliament for Norwich, asked whether the payments were made simply because the importers had been put out of business by the government's bulk-buying policy, \ Special Police (Continued from Page 1) Dixon urged that a special police- man be appointed for park purposes. Declaring that the board was not a "police force," Mr. Maundrell said letters were being continually re. ceived from irate citizens who wanted the board to keep close rein on activities at various parks. An- gered by damage to their property from stray baseballs, or any other recreational activity, citizens invari- ably wrote in to say that a, certain area "was never meant to be a park," he reported. C. R. Bailes said that co-operation of parents and people in the neigh- borhood of the parks was essential. "If we get that, we won't have all this trouble," he said. The board assured Charles Carp- enter, Park Road South, that the baseball diamond at what is known as Sportsman's Park will be remov- ed. Mr, Carpenter complained that baseball teams at the park were causing a "public nuisance" with both hardballs and softballs bounc- ing off his house repeatedly. Baseball equipment at this park will be transferred on loan to Radio Park, now under the supervision of the Westmount Recreational Associ- ation, Mr, Bathe said. Want Drinking Fountains The board received a recommen- dation from the Community Re- creation Association calling for the installation of drinking fountains at all city parks that are equipped with water connections. The C.R.A. pointed particularly to Connaught Park where, it was said, a water fountain would prove a boon to the baseball teams who now have no opportunity to get a drink during and after games. "There's nothing in this year's estimates to take caré of installa- tion of water fountains," Mr. Dixon pointed out, proposing that the ex- penditure for the fountains be in- cluded in next year's estimates. - Dr, R. E. Cox said the cost of the fountains would run from $50 to $75 each. If any action were taken this year on the matter, the fountains could not be installed before the middle of August and the water would be shut off in September, he pointed out. Urges Imperial Aircraft Policy Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England (CP) --A planned imperial aircraft policy which "would greatly strengthen the British Common- wealth," was urged by Chairman Alan S, Butler at the De Havilland Aircraft (Australian) Company's annual general meeting. Development in the Dominions, especially Canada and Australia, should be given all possible support, Butler sald, adding that "a virile aircraft engineering and production industry in the Dominion is of the greatest importance to the Empire as a whole." N ' India is a leading producer of cotton, tea, tobacco and sugar-cane. Port Rowan, July 12--(CP)--The flash fire which sheathed a pl'cas- ure launch in flames cf this Lake Erie resort on June 28 and result ed in three deaths was caused by a spark from an open-type genera- tor igniting gasoline fumes in the bilge, Inspector L.'J. Bishop of the Fire Marshals Office told a coron- er's jury here yesterday. The jury which investigated the death' of 37-vear-old Evelyn Mec- Leod, one of the three victims, con- cluded that "no blame can be at- tached to anyone." Their finding was that the headwalitress of the | Turkey Point Hotel and native of died of shock and stran- gulation used by the explosion and fire attributed to a defective gas lime" in the engine of the boat. Other Two Medical evidence showed Charles Cruickshank of Turkey Point, 29- yeai-old owner of the cabin cruiser, died from drowning. The third victim, Gordon Swart, 38, of near- by Simcoe, perished in the explo- sive flash fire. Rescued were How- ard Ferris, 28, of Turkey Point, June Strome, 21, and Jean Sturt: geon, 20, both of Toronto. "One cup of gasoline evaporated is equal in force to 10 sticks of dy- namite," testified Inspector Bishop. "One gallon of gasoline can lift 1,000 pounds of solid rock. It is un- fortunate so many people treat gas like water." (vas Fumes Caused Blast; Warns Care Necessary } Under questioning, the Inspector said his examination of the ill- fated boat showed no signs of any; vents, "There should really be two' intake and output vents on any e-operated craft to ensure elimination of all gas fumes." . The two Toronto girls told of leaving Turkey Point in the late evening with Cruickshank at the. wheel. The trip to Port Rowan was uneventful, but when the party started back to Turkey Point they smelled gasoline. "Charlie told everyone not to light a match and. he stopped the boat. It was then the whole thing happened and we jumped or were thrown into the water," sald Miss Strome,. Some Drinking When asked if the three men in the party had been drinking on the boat or in Port Rowan, the girls sald they had had some beer but that none of them were drunk. Miss Strome admitted she sald shortly after the disaster, "if only" the boys hadn't been so drunk this wouldn't have happened." Under questioning, she said her statement was an exaggeration 'made during, all the excitement." \ Dr. K. M. McIntosh of Port Row-" an testified that post-mortem analysis of urine and blood samples of the boat owner showed "undoubt- ed signs of intoxication a few hours before death." This, he added, was not a contributing factor in the man's death by drowning, Ruhr Coal Mine Showdown Due Washington, July 12--(AP)--A showdown between the United Sta- tes and Britain this month over socialization of the Ruhr cial mines in the British zone of Germany was predicted by diplomatic offi- cials today. The occasioin is the forthcoming | Ango-American conference here on | methods of boosting Ruhr coal pro- duction as an essential step in Eur- opean recovery. The meeting was announced late yesterday by the State Department. Officials said it was hoped that the talks would begin within 10 days. Danger Over From Floods Winnipeg, July 12--(CP)--Danger from Assiniboine river flood waters in the Baie St, Paul-Poplar Point area was believed to have ended to- day after soldiers and civilians alike had added nearly 20,000 sand- bags- to - the hastily-constructed Dikes guarding 15,000 acres of farm land. " However, some damage had been reported to approximately 300 acres west of Bale St. Paul, where the crest of the blood has now passed. The damage is not expected to be too severe and farmers living along the river bank between Portage La Prairie and Winnipeg, where the stream is now at its highest, were optimistic today that crops would survive generally. Greek Loyalists Gain Headway Athens, July 12--(AP)--Royalist air and artillery units were report- ed today by the Greek War Minis- try to be inflicting heavy casual- ties and gaining ground on guerril- la forces on Mount Grammos, where War Minister George Stra- tos said the insurgents were seek- ing to establish a Communist state. Unconfirmed press dispatches said an international brigade unit of 120 members had appeared in action on the guerrilla side in the Kozane region east of Mount Grammos. Say Hindustan To Quit Early New Delhi, July 12--(Reuters)-- The Hindustan Dominion of India will leave the British common- wealth of Nations as soon as it is "feasible", informed sources said yesterday. But the Moslem Dominion of Pakistan May remain a Dominion for a year or so after its official birth on Aug. 15, authoritative Moslem League quarters however were not disposed to speculate on long-range possibilities of its future when so many urgent matters of the actual establishment still re- main to bet settled. Europe Aid (Continued from Page 1) was economic and not political. "I emphasize again," he declared, "that this is a voluntary arrange-, ment, We are attempting to or- ganize the economic resources of the continent for the benefit of all Europe . , ." Admit Press The conference accepted French Foreign Minister Bidault's proposal that the sessions be open to the press. Bevin was nominated for the pre- sidency by the Lowlands bloc--Bel. gium, Luxembourg and The Neth. ertands. Bevin added: "It is a matter of regret that cer- tain countries have not been able: to attend this conference. I am sure that they regret it them- selves. We regret their absence, but we fully urderstand and express * our sympathy.
