Lake Erie Storm Causes 4 Upsets Cleveland, Aug. 7--(CP) -- Lake Erie is being searched from the air and surface today for a 35-year-old business man left lashed to a small capsized motorboat by a friend who swam nine miles to shore during a day in which several persons were rescued from various craft in the stormy lake. : The motorboat was found last night without any trace of Harold John- son of Carnegie, Pa., whose compan- ion, Thomas Cook of Pittsburgh, lashed him to the boat before bat- tling his way to shore for aid. Johnson, a poor swimmer, was left in a life-jacket, Cook said. It took Cook nine hours to reach shore, Seven other persons were safe in Ohio ports after Coast Guard per- sonnel had extricated them from separate adventures inyolving a ca- .bin cruiser, cork raft and canvas kayak. In an unusual sequence of events, the Coast Guard yesterday. Towed into nearby Ricky River a disabled cabin cruiser which set out Tuesday with five passengers aboard to attempt a crossing from Port Bruce, Ont.; Rescued 16-year-old James Cor- rell of Youngstown, O., from a drift- ing cork raft nine miles off Ashta- bula, O.,, after strong winds swept his craft into the lake; Located Herman Niemayer of Pittsburgh safe near AshtaBula, He had been reported missing since Monday in an attempt to reach Canada in a kayak. Niemayer told the Coast Guard he tried several times to cross but finally gave up because of treacherous weather, All five passengers of the cruiser, owned by investment executive John A. Kruse, were uninjured when a Coast Guard cutter effected the rescue. Correll apparently suffered few "ill effects from his mishap. His father, C. W. Correll, said the boy had no paddles' and "just waited" to be rescued.

They had gone on beyond the others heading to- ward Catfish<Rapids and were not to be found. Bowmanville Youth Told Rangers Jim Schaffer of Cleveland and S. Breslin of Bowmanville, Ont.., re- ported the fear that they had drowned to forest rangers at Brent late in the night. They said the missing three had disobeyed instruc- tions from Camp Counsellor Dick Prince of Detroit in trying to shoot the rapids. The canoe was believed | to have been shattered on the rocks. The three were reported found huddled together on the banks of the river shortly after dawn. Forest rangers Jack and Norman Grant are paddling to the camp site to investigate. They may bring the boys back here when they reach the scene early tonight. Decided to Get a Doctor "We had started out on a canoe trip to Lake Opeonga," Schaffer told the rangers, "but we de- cided to head for Brent when Her- bert Gilbert got sick the second day out. We thought this would be the nearest place to get a doctor, "We got to the rapids and started a two-mile portage. We carried all our packs and supplies across and waited, but when the others didn't show up we back-tracked to look for them, We were all pretty tired after the portage but we ran back. We found Fetterman on the shore but there was no sign of the other fellows or the two canoes. "They had strict orders not to shoot the rapids but' they went ahead and tried it."

The Dutch naval force which, landed here Sunday found death and potential death everywhere. Lt.-Cmdr. Pieter Cool, Dutch na- | val officer commanding the atea at | the southwest tip of the island, in sight of the Java naval base of Soerabaja three miles across the muddy strait, showed me yesterday a few of the inhabitants who defied the Indonesian order to evacuate to the interior. Only 3 Left The Kampong (village compound) had three inhabitants: A shrunken a bony mother, and a sore-covered boy of 10 with a distended stomach. Ceol, who spent five years in the Nazi concentration camp at Buchen- wald, Germany, for underground ac- tivities, said the appearance of the people here reminded him of those rescued by the United States 3td Army in the Reich. The mother said her family was. ordered out of the compound four months ago and returned today to find their houses stripped. The vil- lage is overgrown with weeds. Trees are beginning to sprout through the thatched roofs. Thousands of Ma- doerese crossed the channel months ago to Soerabaja. ? Skeletons Unburied In five houses entered, skeletons of men and women and one baby lay unburied where they died. An- other compound contained a man moaning from the pain of dysen- tery. , Trees and telephone lines are fes- toongd with home-made grenades attached to trip wires. The roads are lined with bombs and five-inch shells taken from the Netherlands Naval Arsenal nearby. The arsenal wags partly destroyed during the Ja- ranese occupation and later was stripped completely by the Indon- esians, The cease-fire order caught the Dutch in an awkward situation with this operation only partially com- pleted. The marines landing at Ka- mal occupied Bangkalan in an over- land push. The Dutch civil affairs officer here said the marines occupied Pamekasan after the cease-fire or- der, in order to prevent Indonesians from: firing public buildings. At Soerabaja headquarters in Ja- va a Dutch spokesman had said the timing of the Madoera operation was prompted by the arrival of a Suomi of Hee in East Java which uld permit feeding Mad 's 3,- 000,000" peopte. 8 oera's 3, Chiefs Claim Stampede Profits Good, Pay Low Calgary--(CP)--Man still think of Indie a he tepees and wearing feathered head- dresses were considerably jarred at the commercial attitude they | 3dopeed ov ard the Calgary Stam- ede, ey aske - Dede. y d for a pay in Representatives of the Blackfoot, Stony and Sarcee tribes in a formal resolution asked that the prize list be doubled for best dressed Indians parade participants and Indian ra- ces.

The dead were jdentified by an official of North Atlantic Air- ways as Nelson Pell of Ipswich, Mass., 'the pilot; Thomas Mand. ell of Beverly, !lass.; and his two daughters, Harriet, 19, and Anne, 22, both of Boston.. They were en route from Mon- treal to Bedford, Mass., an air- port near Boston, when the crash occurred, The plane had been chartered yesterday for the flight to Montreal, Visited Mandell's Daughter The party had visited Mrs, Cy- rus Craig of Montreal, another daughter of Mandell, who was the son of George S. Mandell, former publisher of the old Boston Transcript, Identification of the bodies was made by Mrs. Frederick Ayer, Mandell's cousin and a sister of the late Gen. George S, Patton, Police said the motor appar- ently "conked out" over the big vent and that the craft 'dropped in like a dead pigeon." The bat. tered bodies were found in debris at the bottom pf the flue. Parts of the aircraft, identified as a Stin- son, were stuffed in the 25-goot high, 10-foot wide chimney. The wings were sheered off as the plane hit the vent, Series of Blasts Followed Witnesses reported A that the crash was followed by a series of blasts, apparently caused by ex- ploding gasoline in the plane. Firemen extinguished the flames quickly. Company officials said that speedy shutting off of the plant's gas possibly averted a more ser- ious disaster, The craft, flying in a low hanging fos, narrowly mis- sed hitting a 200-foot high gaso- line-cracking unit in the refinery plant, the scene of a serious fire last winter, Three bodies were recovered at the bottom of the massive vent. The other was trapped under the plané's engine, Bus Service (Continued from Page 1) mains laid in East Whitby Town. ship. It will be explained that the | matter at the moment hinges on the completion of the agreement with the Oshawa Public Utilities Com- mission. It was agreed that the sum of money, received by the Township from the Provincial Treasurer's De.- partment for the benefit of the Westmount Recreation Association, be turned over to the Association treasurer. It was also decided that the Township road superintendent will have charge of the laying and con- necting all tile and drain connec- tions from private property to road drainage tile. A flat rate of $20 per connection will be charged. Appli- cations by ratepayers for connec- tions must be made at the Township offices. Tourist Camp Licenses In connection with the licensing by the Provincial Government of tourist camps, it was decided to have the assessor submit a list to Council of the camps in operation in the Township. It was pointed out that while a license is not required for the cur- rent year in cases in which tourist camps were in existence prior to March 13, 1947, all such premises must be licensed for operation after March 31, 1948. Licenses for these premises in the Township will be issued by-the Township Clerk. Police Area The. Council decided to table a letter from the Attorney-General's Department regarding the setting up of a police area in the Town- ship. The matter will be gone into with the Oshawa Police Commission to ascertain if Oshawa officers can patrol the urban township areas. It is expected a meeting will be held in the very near future to go into the matter more fully, In view of the fact that it was necessary to use a private road to serve the area, and as the Township has no legal right to use the road, it was decided to discontinue gar- bage collection on that part of Glover's Road not taken over by the Township. In connection with the proposed agreement between the Township and the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, relating to. the payment of certain fees to the Township, it was agreed to refer the agreement to the solicitor for an opinion. If it is found satisfactory, the reeve and clerk were authorized to sign if for the Township. A petition from residents of Or- chard Avenue for a sidewalk was referred to the chairman of the Sidewalks Committee. A petition for road repairs on this street was referred to the Chairman of the Roads and Bridges Committee. To Call Meeting It was agreed to inform residents in the vicinity of Thornton's Cor- ners, living within the water area, that a meeting will be held in the near future at which the Township Solicitor will explain the water area.

By D'ARCY (CONNELL Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, Aug, 7--(CP)--If the people of Newfoundland vote fds union with Canada and the Can- adian Parliament approves, the island could enter the Dominion as a 10th province by July 1, 1948--the 81st anniversary of Confederation, Joseph R. Smallwood, secre- tary of the seven-man Newfound. land delegation here to discuss possibility of union, made this statement today in an interview outlining procedure that possibly would be followed, A referendum on the question could not be held before next May, because winter conditions on Newfoundland made the holding of eieciions earlier impractical, Report To Convention He said the first step would be for the delegation to report back to the 45-man National Conven- tion elected last summer to re- commend future form or forms of government for the now commis- sion-controlled island, The dele- gation is working with Canadian officials on the 'drafting of terms that would constitute a workable basis of union, The convention would decide whether union with - Canada should be placed on the. ballot with other forms of government when the people are asked how they want to be governed in the future. The ballot might also in- clude a recommendation for a return to responsible government and another for retention of the commission government which took over the financially haras- sed island in 1934, The convention's recommenda~ tion would first be sent to the Dominion's office in London which would draft the referendum bal- lot. If the people voted for join. ing Canada as a 10th province the next move would be for the Canadian House of Commons and to make a joint address to the United Kingdom Parlia- ment praying the admission of Newfoundland into Confedera. tion. Amend B.N.A, Act United Kingdom Parlia- ment then would either amend the British North America Act or pass an Imperial order-in. council to make the union effect. ive. An imperial order was passed when Alberta and Saskatchewan joined Confederation. The next move would be for Canada's Governor-in-Council to appoint a Lieutenant-Governor for Newfoundland, The Lieuten~ ant-Governor. would issue a pro- clamation for the holding of a general provincial election, Pre- sumably the Governor-in-Council would simultaneously issue a pro- clamation for the holding of sev- en federal by-elections on the is- The | land. "Entitled to 7 M.P.'s Under terms of the B.N.A Act Newfoundland would be entitled to elect seven members to the Commons, and to six seats in the Senate where the appointments are made for life by the govern. ment, One of the: first duties of the new legislature would be the Ottawa, Aug. 7--(CP)--With 'calls growing for further state intervene tion to ease the shortage, the Federal government--in the op- inion of its No. 1 housing official-- considers itself committed deeply enough already. _ That opinion was in an interview yesterday by David B. Mansur, head of the Central Mort- gage and Housing Corporation, the agency that has assumed mcst of the governmen's responsibility for housing, Situation "Tight" . Although the situation' posed by rising costs was probably "tighter" than at any time since the end of the war and could be termed "dang- erous," it had to be remembered that Ottawa already was building or backing the building of more than 20,000 homes, had some 40,000 under its wing and had reached the point where its ability to guarantee further priorities in materials had about ended. Baclusive of the Veterans Land Act, the government was assuming responsibility for completing 3,300 homes started by Housing Enter- Housing Picture Said Grim But Ottawa Has Hands Full prises Ltd, an insurance group which gave up its plans for 10,000 units; was completing 4,000 to 5,000 emergency shelters and 8,000 to 10,- 000 wartime housing units; was pro- moting non-speculative construction' of 4,000 to 5,000 homes under the Integrated Housing Plan and hund- reds of others under the National Housing "Act. granting subsidies in the form: of contingent grants to men who build under the V.L.A. 68,000 This Year Mr. Mansur said he would guess that 68,000 homes would be com- pleted this year, compared with an anticipated 80,000. The space be- tween costs and the price potential buyers wert willing to pay was at fault. It was probably not possible to build a six-room house for less than $6,000. There were three ways out--tumb- ling prices; government intervention to build homes for rent or sale on a subsidized basis; or a sharp reduc- tion im national income and employ- ment which would wipe out demand. Would Prevent Press Combines By JOHN DAUPHINEE Canadian Press Staff Writer London-- (CP) -- Four big news- paper chains own more than one- third of the daily newspapers "in Britain "and we have no reason to suppose that they have come to an end of their operations," the Na- tional Union of Journalists said in its submission to the Royal Com- mission on the Press, Speaking for 9,600 newspaper men--"from 80 to 90 per cent of the newspaper men of the country"-- the N.UJJ.'s 23-page statement re- commended "a law to prevent the formation of monopolies" as one point in a 10-point plan for press control It said the number of dailies in England, Scotland and Wales has dropped from 144 to 116 in 20 years. "It is not suggested that every one of the 28 daily papers that died, was killed by the operations of the newspaper groups but many of them were, and, a much larger number survived by exchanging their independence for the shelter of one or other of the combines." This is the set-up of the four main newspaper chains as describ- ed by the NUJ.;-- Kemsley Newspapers Limited -- owning 14 dailies including the Sunday Chronicle, Sunday Graphic Hind Property (Continued from Page 1) the Executive Council and the Lo€al Associations for the various tricts in the city.

Gahan. two years, however, there has been no central meeting place and the groups: have met at various church- es and in rented accommodation. A number of meetings have been held at Adelaide House, The new location has been con- sidered particularly suitable be- cause of its proximity to Memorial Park and its accessibility by bus from all parts of the city. There are at present 11 Girl Guide companies, 12 Brownie packs and one Sea Ranger crew in the city, representing more than 650 members of the movement. Commenting on the gift, Mrs. G. D. Conant, Girl Guide provincial commissioner, said it demonstrated once more Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Mc- Laughlin's "splendid citizenship and interest in youth." "The Girl Guides have badly needed a permanent headquarters in Oshawa," she said. "The gift will provide such and will undoubt- edly result in greater interest in Girl Guide activites and in the needed leaders. The Girl Guides of Osh- awa and of the province will be deeply and everlastingly grateful." Known to have a high value, the Hind property has a frontage of 82 feet six inches on Simcoe Street and a depth of 132 feet. Prior to being owned by the Hind family it was for a number of years the parson- age for Simcoe Street Church, Record Wage Rates For American Workers Washington, Aug. 7.--(AP)-- The Bureau of Labor Statistics has es- timated that the average earnings of United tSates factory workers in June were $1.22 an hour and $48.91 a week--both record highs. Preliminary estimates, to be ad- justed later, show hourly earnings in the first half of the year have increased slightly more than five per cent, - Weekly earnings have risen almost four per cent in the first six months of 1947, drafting of a provincial constitu- tion, Mr. Smallwood said that if Newfoundland became a part of Canada it seemed only natural that existing Canadian political parties would campaign on the island, There were no political parties as such on the island now, | but in, the days of responsible | government there were Liberal |and Conservative parties, |!" In the days of responsible gov- ernment, Newfoundland had a House of Assembly and a Legis- lative Council, a set-up similar to that now existing in Quebec. From the 1880's down to 1928 the representation in the Assem- bly was 36 members, From 1928 to 1932 it was 40 and from 1932 to 1934 it was 27, The represen- tation in the Council where the appointments were made for life was always 18. Canadian Air Cadets Tour Steel Plant Sheffield, England, Aug. 7 (CP)-- A group of Canadian Air Cadets on tour in Northern England yester- day were given a civic reception by Lord Mayor Ernest Graham and later toured one of the city's giant steelworks, housing one of the latest rolling mills in Europe. Meanwhile another group of Canadian Air Cadets touring South- ern England swam and chatted with British Air Cadets at an Air Trans- port Command summer camp near Chivenor, Devonshire. Some watch- ed an ATC. gliding exhibition while others were taken on short flights along the coast. At Shefield, Fit. Lt.

Tito's State Farms Point The Way To Collectivism Ruma, Yugoslavia -- (AP)-- For the lowly hired man, state farming in Yugoslavia offers a paradise of milk and honey. A tractor driver at Ruma, 40 miles northwest of Belgrade, where 2,500 acres of rich, black earth now are government-owned, can earn as much as 250 dinars ($6) a day. A Cabinet minister in Belgrade, by contrast, averages 333 dinars and has nothing in his backyard to pluck free for supper, Nothing is too good for state farms. They are on the priority list for official subsidies. The men who plan to socialize Yugoslavia count on them to lead a tradition- ally backward and individualistic peasantry into a collectivist era. A veteran of the French Maquis, who calls Russia's "Sovhoz" the ideal form of agriculture, has as- sumed the dictatorship of Ruma after organizing five other farms for the republic, "There is nothing to compare with the Sovhoz," said Teodor Georgijevic, 28-year-old Serb who won a degree as engineer of agron- omy at Toulquse, fought in thi resistance and then returned to his™ native land. "Stgte farming is superior to the Kolkhoz -- the co-operative farm-- as Russia has demonstrated. It is more scientific, more efficient."
