TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE THREE Quebec Rockslide Smashes House; Kills B & Blames Parental Delinquency For Increase In Crime "Parental delinquency rather than juvenile delinquency is the cause of the increase in the volume of crime today. People must learn that the home is the foundation on which character is built. We must remember to place first things first. The home, the school and the church are the remedy which would bring about a great re-®-- duction in crime," declared Lt.-Col. Wallace Bunton, territorial prison secretary of the Salvation Army, in his address at the luncheon meeting of the Oshawa Rotary Club yester- day. Speaking on the subject "Is the Criminal] Worth Saving?" Lt.-Col. Bunton drew on his 42 years' experi- ence with prison work and the re- habilitation of criminals to present a thought-provoking address. He was introduced by Rev. George Tel- ford while the vote of thanks was proposed by Crown Attorney A. C. Hall. Rotarian T, L. Wilson presided in the absence of President John G. Geikie. Lt.-Col. Bunton, who has visited the majority of the large prisons in the United States and Canada, said that in visiting prisons he always carried a Bible, a song book and a pack of cards as through one of these it is always possible to ap- proach any prisoner. Prison -Work History Reviewing the history of the pri- son work carried on by the Salva- tion Army, the speaker said that in 1878 General William Booth con- ceived the idea of doing something for the unfortunates confined to prisons. It was shortly after this that Col. Barker of Melbourne, Aus- tralia, began to attend court ses- sions, although he was not allowed to enter prisons to conduct services. Tn 1882 the first prison gate home was established in England with the first in the United States being opened in 1884. In 1889 the first home was opened in Toronto with a similar institution being opened at Kingston two years later. In 1895 Brigadier Walter Archi- bald of the Salvation Army was ap- pointed to the Parole Board. He was allowed to hold a meeting in Kingston Penitentiary once a month and to interview prisoners. "We must learn to treat those who are confined to prison not as num- bers but as men. Too many are sent to prison to serve time when time should be serving them. If time is not used to advantage the majority will come out no better than when they went in," emphasized Lt.-Col. Bunton. "It is my feeling that these men and women should be kept busy through an educational depart- ment so they can be re-made inside the walls, so on the day of their release they can return to society and be welcome." Attention was drawn to the fact that crime is on the increase with the majority of crime being com- mitted by persons between 16 and 19 years of age with the 19 to 25 age group next. Praise For Reform Minister The speaker has high praise for Hon. George Dunbar, Minister of Reform Institutions, who was res- ponsible for the opening at Bramp- ton of a school with the best of equipment and instructors to see to it that prisoners learn a trade and receive an education so that when released it will be easy for them to fit .into soclety and make good. Many of those receiving this train- irg had expressed a desire to stay and complete their training before release. "A total of 2,200 criminals were turned over to us last year and of these 87 per cent. are doing well and making their own way," the speaker commented. "Ninety-nine per cent. of major crime in Canada can be' traced to the home. In some cases there is too much severity and in others not enough. So often it is the good home in which the youth has lost hope. Self expression is being too much emphasized. The future of youth depends upon the foundation laid in the home during the forma- tive years. Too many parents today set a bad example by passing up church services to listen to a radio sermon and then packing a picnic basket for an, afternoon outing." Concluding his remarks, Lt.-Col. Bunton voiced praise for the work being done by the Boy Scout Move- ment, saying that not two per cent. of criminals had ever been Scouts. Scouting, he believed, was the greatest organization in existence today to keep boys out of trouble.

Wing, Wheel Lost Plane Recovered The left wing and wheel of the R.CAF. jet plane, that crashed in- to Lake Ontario five miles off Bow- manville on June 16, were recovered from over 200 feet of water on Sun- day. The remainder of the aircraft has not yet been recovered, and no trace has been found of the pilot, S/L. 8. Y. Broadben* of St. Thomas and Trenton. The recovered wing and . wheel were brought to Oshawa Harbor by HMCS "Fairmile 116" of Teronto, and they will be sent from their to No. 6 Repair Depot at Trenton. In addition to the "Fairmile," the two naval tugs "Loganville" and "Plains- ville" are being used in the search. Divers are not being used, be- cause the water is too deep for their equipment, but the search is being made with cables that" sweep" the bottom of the lake. Officials 'in charge of the grap- pling operations, under the com- mand of Lieutenant Commander A. H. Baker of Halifax, believe that they will be able to recover the re- mainder of the plane within a short time. C.C.F. Members Urge Fall Sitting Toronto, July 6--(CP) -- C.CF. members elected to the 'Ontario Legislature in the June 7 election Monday held thir first caucus and later issued a statement saying a fall session of the legislature "is ur. gently necessary." Replacing the Liberal Party as the opposition in the Ontario House, the C.CF. charged that since the election Premier Drew's Progressive Conservative government "has done itis except take a prolonged holi- ay." "In the meantime the housing shortage grows steadily worse, a most serious Hydro shortage is ex- pected this winter, further riots have occurred in reform institutions, and the report of the Royal Commission on education is still shrouded in se- crecy, more than a year after the commission completed its hearings. "The government ought to face the new legislature on these and other issues, to give an accounting and offer any solutions it may have in mind. , .

Eisenhower Declines to Run | But Some Supporters Ignore His Nomination Rejection ily fill high public office." But he had not changed his mind since telling Republicans last January that he was "not available." James Roosevelt, chairman of the California State Democratic Cen- tral Committee, was one of the chief 'Democratic boosters. The son of the late president, who had join- ed with 17 others to issue a call for a pre-convention anti-Truman hud- dle, said in Los Angeles: "General Eisenhowers statement clearly indicates that he will not serve as a partisan president but will answer a call to national duty. I am tonight, therefore, reissuing the call for the caucus to be held in Philadelphia this coming Satur- day night." In New Jersey, where 368 conven- tion votes were pledged this week to the former commander of Allied forces in Europe, Archibald S. Alex- ander, Democratic candidate for Senator, commented that he felt the draft-Ike movement might not "necessarily be {finally closed." On the other hand, some Eisen- hower strength began drifting away. Leon Henderson, chairman of Americans for Democratic Action which had supported the General, indicated that he considered the Columbia statement a flat refusal. Need No New Law To Drop Title 'Emperor of India' London, July 6 -- (CP) --Prime Minister Attlee Monday told the Commong that no further legisla- tion is needed to change the King's title by dropping the words "Em- peror of India." J. A. Boyd-Carpenter, Conserva- tive member for Kingston, asked if Attlee kept in mind the pre- amble of the Statute of Westmin- ster which required the assent of the United Kingdom House and the Dominions' Parliaments for any change in the title, Attlee said the act passed in 1947 giving India independence, provided parliamentary assent in the United Kingdom to the changed title. Pair Questioned As Girl Found Dead Seattle, July 6 --(AP)--Two men were held for questioning Monday as police sought to salve the death of nine-year-old Ellen Jane Ful- wiler. : The child"s body, partially hid- den by a covering of dirt and leaves, was found Sunday in the brushy area of Carkeek Park, in North Seattle, where she had been playing hide-and-seek with play- mates. ! An autopsy performed early to- day indicated death results from suffocation. Adam Liyskoski, county detective chief, after viewing the body said that "I'm quite convinced it's a case of murder." New York, July 6 -- (AP) --Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower flashed a "stop'" sign Monday night at the Ike-for-President bandwagon, but many of his Democratic Party sup- porteds ignored the signal. The General called for the brakes in a statement which said: "I will not at this time identify myself with any political party and could not accept nomination for any public office or participate in Now President of Columbia Uni- versity, the former United States Army Chief of Staff made his views known 'Monday night through the University's public relations di- rector 'in a memorandum released to the press. . President Truman, en route back to Washington from a speaking trip in Missouri, was reported cheered by Eisenhower's action. His only direct comment, when awakened and told of the news in St. Louis was that Eisenhower "is an honor- able man." But Truman's aides interpreted the statement as a death blow to the movement to sidetrack Truman at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia. Eisenhower said he was '"pro- foundly touched by the renewed suggestion that I could satisfactor- Radio Active Ore Survey Planned In Haliburton Toronto, July 6 -- (CP) -- The Ontario Department of Mines com- mencing Wednesday, July 7, will make a survey of the reported finds of radio active minerals in the Haliburton County and vicinity, Hon. Leslie M. Frost, - Provincial Treasurer, and Minister of Mines, announced Monday. Messrs. Nelson Hogg and S. E. Wolfe, department geologists, will conduct the survey. Following their examination of the areas a report of their findings will be made pub- lic. Mr. Hogg has recently returned from an examination of a radio active mineral discovery at Coral Rapids, on the Ontario Northland Railway, some 90 miles north of the town of Cochrane. Indonesian Leaders Plan Policy Talks Batavia, July 6--(Reuters)--Non- Republican Indonesian leader§ are expected to discuss the transfer of Dutch power to the Indonesian Pro- visional Federal Government when they meet at Bandoeng, West Java, Wednesday or Thursday.

Stranded On Ledge Of River, Geologist Finally Rescued Edmonton; July 6 -- (CP) -- An American geologist, Robert Parry, of Bartlesville, Okla., started out from Mile 363 of the Alaska Highway on a planned four-day trip to Fort Nel son, B.C. It took him a lot longer than he had figured. He arrived Monday night, three weeks from the date he started, lucky to be alive, He was rescued from a rocky ledge overlooking the Dunedin River in the remote north. He had been stranded there nearly two weeks, It was more than a week before he was located by R.C.AF. search planes, and it took another week be. fore he could be reached by rescu- ers. The rescue involved a 15-mile overland hike, a canoe trip to Nel- son Forks, B.C., and a plane trip to take an aerial bearing. Trapper Charles Jensen of Fort Nelson, B. C., was _the man who fi- nally led to Party's rescue, from Nelson Forks with two com- panions. By Saturday they still had found no trace of the missing man, and returned to Nelson Forks, Parry had planed to travel by boat along the Dunedin River. He was stranded in a gorge from which he was unable to climb when his ding- hy capsized. ~ He was 'spotted by Jensen from the air, and while the ground searchers toiled to reach him, Jen- sen dropped supplies to the trapped man. 'When the searchers reached Par- ry they returned to Fort Nelson by trail and boat. {eration of Agriculture here last He had set out early last week: Storm Whips Over Ontario, DamageLight Toronto, July 6--(CP)--The most spectacular electric storm of the year rattled over half of Ontario Monday night but early reports in- dicated little damage. Rain fell in varying degree all over Central and South-eastern Orn. tario while thunder pealed and skies were rent by stabbing flashes of lightning. . Shortly before midnight a barn at suburban Richmond Hill was struck, and fire destroyed the building. The weather bureau at nearby Malton repotred it would be unusual if--%1 a storm of such intensity-- more lightning hits were not re- ported before morning. The weather office said the storm was being felt over such scattered centres as Ottawa, Trenton, Malton, Toronto, Muskoka, North Bay, Kirk- land Lake. At midnight, the rainfall was re- ported generally light although seme areas received drenching showers. Lightning struck the main build- ing of the Canadian International Paper Company at Pensive Depot about 170 miles north of Otawa and destroyed an office structure. Hail was reported in areas west and northwest of the Ottawa valley but there was no indication what damage had been caused to the crops. Telephone and telegraph wires in some areas weakened under the storm. Telegraph offices in Ottawa reported Monday night's disruptions one of the worst of the year. One telegrach official said that North Bay particularly was bearing the brunt of the storm, Parts of the city were reported inundated in four feet of water. Interfering with local fadio seis, lightning also struck at short wave transmissions, A technician 2t one short wave station near Ottawa said lightning struck his two 125- foot towers twice, bridging insula- tor sparks gaps and setting vp an arc which channelled power to the ground. Firefighters at Maniwaki were called 70 miles north over the week- end to fight a blaze which destroyed a $6,000-office building. Two Westerners May Seek Post As Liberal Chief Winnipeg, July 6 -- (CP) -- The chances of two westerners for 'the leadership of the Liberal Party now are being weighed in advance of the party's national convention in Ot- tawa early next month. One of the possible candidates is Premier Garson of Manitoba; the other, Agriculture Minister Gardin- er. Mr. Garson, so far at least, has: given no indication that he will al- low his name to stand for the lead- ership. He heads a coalition administra tion which is not expected to call an election before next year; has not been active on the hustings in sup- port of the Liberal cause. In addressing the Manitoba Fed- month, Mr. Garson referred critical. ly to the Federal Government's in- tention of bringing the marketing of oats and barley under the Cana- dian Wheat Beard provided the Prairie provinces passed complemen- tary legislation. Mr, Garson's views were taken to mean that he was not seriously in- terested .in entering the race for the Liberal leadership. Mr, Gardiner, a former Premier of Saskatchewan and a farmer at Lemberg, stumped the province en- ergetically for the Liberals before the June 24 general election. Libérals now hold 18 of the 52 seats in the Saskatchewan legisla- ture. Their gains--in the last House the entire opposition numbered only five--are taken as an indication of the influence which Mr. Gardiner wields: He has been assured of the sup- port of some Saskatchewan dele- gates to the national convention. How widespread his backing from other western delegates will be re- mains to be seen, and Injures Two 50 Tons Of Debris Buries 3 Children; Fear Second Slide Levis, Que., July 6 (CP).--A rockslide, thundering down a 150-foot cliffside, splintered a two-storey frame dwelling here Monday night, killed an infant and buried two others under 50 tons of rocks and debris. Meanwhile, families occupying homes nearby were ordered to leave by police who fear-@ ed for their safety. They said a second landslide appeared possible. Killeq as she slept in her cradle by thé kitchen stove was five- months-old Pauline Lebel. Her three-year-old sister Marguerite and brother, Jacques, age two, were res- cued almost free of injury. Jacques had superficial head wounds. They are children of Mr. and Mrs. Horace Lebel who occupied the home a short distance from the Levis Ferry Company dock, across from Quebec City. Mrs, Lebel suffered injuries when struck by planking as she attempted to re-enter the house to save her children after having gone outdoors to investigate a loud, rumbling noise. "There wasn't a chair in the home left intact," said Sgt. T. Morin of the municipal police who led a three-hour search for the body. He said the Lebel home received the full force of the rockslide. It was the most serious landslide on either side of the St. Lawrence River in some time. A few years ago, several persons were killed in a similar avalanche at nearby Mont- morency. Cyclist And Girl Seriously Hurt Galt, July 6--Lorne Robinson, 19, Galt-Hamilton highway, an em- ployee of The Reporter press room, and Bessie Clark, 16, 87 Norfolk Ave. were seriously hurt in a mo- torcycle accident on the holiday in Scarboro township. Robinson has a dislocated hip, broken bone in one foot and cut on one knee while his companion has a dislocated jaw. Robinson is said to have lost con- trol of his machine at Stop 16 on No. 2 Highway in Scarboro town- ship and it left the road. Robinson told Provincial Constable R. N. Williams that a motor car cut in front of his machine, causing him to lose control, Both he and the girl were thrown a considerable distance. The accident happened about 6:45 last évening when the couple were returning from Oshawa where they had attended the motorcycle races. It was said at noon today that Robinson will likely be confined to Toronto East General Hospital for a week.
