The blaze lit the night with a huge tongue of flame and smoke, visible for miles, and attrac- ted over a thousand spectators who hampered the firemen in their bat- tle to have the building. The fire was well under 'way when the first alarm was turned in to the Cedar Dale station and firemen could see the night sky lit up by the conflagration as they left the hall. Headquarters equipment was summoned immediately and firemen with Assistant Chief R. Hobbs in charge, did their best to extinguish the blaze but it was rag- ing out of control and little could be done to save the building, which burnt to the ground. More than 1150 feet of hose were laid and several ladders were used in an attempt to save the building, valued at $500, only a part of which was covered by insurance. The con- tents, a 1938 mode] truck and furni- ture including a bedroom suite, were Iso completely demolished with an timated -loss of $1,200. ¥ Heat from the fire was tremend- ous and firemen and spectators alike were. showered by sparks and debris from the inferno. No firemen were injured in the blaze, and according to Assistant Chief Hobbs, the cause of the fire has not been determined as yet. This morning, Assistant Chief Hobbs told The Times-Gazette that spectators at the fire were a nuisance and that they not only |, endangered themselves but hamp- ered the fire department by getting in the way. He asked citizens to keep well back of fire lines in the future and stay clear of firemen laying hose and performing their duties. 2 Missing On Lake Trip To Whitby -- Toronto, Sept. 13 -- (CP)-- A widespread search using air- craft and boats hag been launched from Toronto in an effort to locate two persons missing since Saturday night on Lake Ontario.

"The centre is expected to pass 40 to 60 miles west of Bermuda dur- ing the next few hours." Although pointed in the general direction of the Virginia Capes, the stom is expected to recurve t the north and northeast before any effects are felt on the United Sta- tes coast, the storm warning ser. vice stated.

The plane then flew to Salonika. "This is a classical example of air piracy," Makalbassis said. "It is up to the Yugoslav government to show no assistance was given by arresting and returning the youths. It should be especially noted that, although the aircraft flew 50 kilo- metres (30 miles) incide Yugoslavia and stayed more than 30 minutes, it was not molested on entering, leaving or during the stay." The airline owner said two of the youths who spoke Yugoslav said they had to go to Yugoslavia to escape execution as Communist guerrillas.

Announcement that Indian troops would march across the bor- ders of the huge, rich state had been expected for days, but came with startling . suddenness this morning six hours after the march began at' 4 a.m. Lt.-Gen. Maharaja Shri Rajen- drashinhji, Indian Commander-in- Chief in the south, informed the population of Hyderabad in a proc- lamation the Indian Army was coming to prevent their state from becoming "the home and focus of anarchy." As soon as "a government which will maintain a rule of law and conform with the will of the psoplé is established" the Indian troops will depart, he declared. Earlier Sunday,.

He said 8,000 Arabs were driven out and their homes smashed by the Israeli Army in violation of the truce. The villages are Ein Ghazal, Ijzim and Jaba, south of Haifa, along the Haife-Tel Aviv highway. Bernadotte, the United Nations Palestine 'mediator, reported to the Security Council - Jewish forces at- tacked the three villages July 18 at the beginning of the second truce. The Arabs were forced to evacuate after a seven-day land and air attack. Later, he said, the Jewish forces destroyed the villages of Ein GhaZal and Jaba. Bernadotte said his investigators found 8,000 former villagers in the Jenin area. They placed the num- ber of killed and missing at about 130. Bernadotte said "Arab allega- tions concerning the number killed and captured are enormously exag- gerated." In Jerusalem, the heaviest day- light gunfiring in eight weeks of truce Sunday shattgred. the Sab- bath quiet of 'the Holy City. A Jewish source #aid an Israeli soldier and eight civilians, includ- ing an eight-year-old boy and a 65-year-old woman, were killed. Among the victims were a father and his two children.

Paper States Reds Set To Seize Berlin By RICHARD KASISCHKE Berlin, Sept. 13 -- (AP) -- A Lib- eral democratic newspaper here says today "X-day" for achieving Communist seizure of Berlin has been fixed for some time after the November presidential Slerijons in the United States. The newspaper Montags Echo as- serts the Russians have given Ger- man Communists orders to step up riotous demonstrations to seize con- trol of the city because Moscow wants no four-power settlement of the 80-day-old blockade crisis. A highly-informed source in Moscow said Sunday night resump- tion of four-power talks there on the Berlin crisis is "quite likely" this week. The informant made this prediction after the return to the Russian capital of Francois Sey- doux, political and diplomatic ad- viser to Lt.-Gen. Joseph Pierre Koe- nig, French Military Governor. in Germany. Seydoux left Moscow Aug. 31 for Berlin, taking important documents to the three western mil- itary governors. A Communist parley was called after last Thursday's giant anti- Communist. demonstration, which more than 200,000 Berliners cheered denunciations of Commu- nist pressure which had forced the legally-elected city assembly to move from the Russian sector into the British sector for protection. The newspaper says "High Soviet occupation officials at Karlshorst headquarters have openly told lead- ing SED. (Socialist Unity Party) functionaries Russians do not want any agreement over Berlin or Ger- many and that is why they have employed delaying and blocking tactics in talks at Moscow and in Berlin." In London, Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin conferred Sunday with the United States and French Ambassadors on the next steps to be taken by the western powers in the Berlin crisis. Meanwhile; German Social Dem- ofrats in the Russian occupation zone addressed a "cry of help" to the western alliés, They pledged a "continued struggle for freedom" and asked the western powers to "help us--but help us quickly."

Stories of the gang's visit differ. Chief of Police George Holmes claims that "there was nothing to it," while Arthur Asher, whose restaurant awning was dam , express~d fears that since "the gang got away with it once, they may come back." According to witnesses the young hoodlums made theiy appearance in the Star Cafe, owned by Puan Quoang about six o'clock Saturday evening. They ordered sandwiches and then tore up menus and ser- viettes, scattering the pieces through the ,premises and hurled salt and pepper shakers about. The foul language they used and their actions forced other customers from the cafe. The youths, however, did pay for the sandwiches they or- dered. Leaving the Star, the youths went to the Terminal Restaurant owned by: Mr. Asher. Two of them jumped up and swung on the awn- ing bracket, breaking the bracket and ripping the awning. "The gang congregated in front of my place about 6.45 in the even- ing," Mr. Asher complained. "Two of them swung on the awning brac- ket and when it held them they jumped up again and put their whole weight on it. The bracket gave way and the awning ripped; it is a wonder that it didn't smash through my plate glass window. "I ran out of the restaurant and expostulated with them and they replied with the foulest kind of language, I then went after them and they ran away, cutting across a couple of lawns. "I tried to get hold of Chief Holmes but he was not in so I phoned Provincial Police. They told me they could do nothing as the village is under Chief Holmes' jur- isdiction. They said, however, that the description I gave them tallied with the Beanery Gang. There were seven or eight of them, wear- ing loud shirs and zoot pants. "About an hour later Chief Holmes came along and I told him about it and asked him to do some- thing about it. He looked at the damage for a while and then went away. I understand he made no arrests even though I told him that the gang was down at the lake front. "It isn't so much that the dam. age isn't very great but the fact that the chief did nothing about Cline Goldsmith New Onion King Claimant for the title of "Large Onion Champ," Cline Goldsmith, 22 Westmount Avenue, yesterday displayed three Spanish onions weighing a total of six pounds six ounces. Mr. Goldsmith operates a vege- table garden as a hobby but specializes in onions. He is considering showing his mon- sters at the Oshawa Fair, the incident that worries me. If these hoodlums think they can get away with things like this they will be back. "These boys weren't local boys; they have never been seen in town before. The last I heard of them, which was at 8,30, they were still around town, having rented & couple of rowboats and gone for a row on the lake. "I definitely think that to pro tect merchants of this village the Chief should take stern action in cases of this kind." "There was nothing to it," Chief Holmes declared. "The only dame age done was to Mr. Asher's awne ing bracket which could be fixed for 25 cents. The incident does not deserve the publicity it is receiving, I saw Mr. Quoang and he made no complaints. "The youths definitely were not members of the Beanery Gang. They are not known here. There were five of them all together and I understand they were later joine ed by two girls."
