# Te a WONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1948 'THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE 'Fight On' Chiang Tells Chinese Army By HAROLD K. MILKS Nanking, Nov. 1--(AP)--Presi- dent Chiang Kai-Shek, his Man- churian armies crumbling and Mukden lost, told the Kuomintang Central Political Committee today that China "must accept the les- sons of defeat by Communists and fight on." There was no hint of surrender from the weary Chinese leader, whose government has-been shaken to its foundation by the wholesale defeats of his troops in the last three weeks. Authoritative sources here said the Communists had occupied Muk- den completely at 3 pm. (2 am EST) and that the last government fficials fled from there three days 0. The government had had no dio communication with Mukden \ Jfnce 6 p.m. Sunday (5 am.

Fireman Phil Candidates Make Final Talks Today By CLYDE BLACKBURN Canadian Press Staff Writer New York, Nov. 1--(CP)--Eleven men who would be president of the United States say their final pieces tonight and tomorrow the voters make their choice of the man who will run the United States' business for the next four years. Only two of the 11 nominated candidates are really contenders, President Truman and Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York. Today's campaigning will be sort of anti-climax to the weeks of ter- rific campaigning up and down apd all across the country. The leading contenders will go on the radio net- works to urge the approximately 90,000,000 eligible voters to go to the polls and vote for somebody. However, it is generally consider- ed unlikely that more than about 51,000,000 will exercise their right to vote. President Truman is at his home in Independence, Mo. where he will vote and await returns. He told his hometown people, as he has told millions from coast to coast, that he is confident his Democratic --must® make a choice from the three leading contenders. The party winning the popular majority in a state gets the whole electoral college vote of that state, no matter how small the majority may be. Old Building Has Interesting Background With the razing of the Old Market Building on Prince and Richmond Streets, a hislovica} structure, with memories of the First World War, is passing awhy. It was there that Major Alfred Hinds had his headquarters when he was recruiting and training 'D" Company of the 116th Battalion for overseas service in World Wai I. Veterans of this company recall the major climbing to his little orderly room upstairs in this building every day while the company was sta tioned in Oshawa. After the first World War was over, the "Old Dugout" as it way called, became the meeting place of the Oshawa Branch of the Ca- nadian Legion in the early days of its history. The Legion met there until 1930, when the membership increased to such an extent that larger quarters were necessary. But old Legion members still recall the meetings in the "Old Dugout", and party will retain its 16-year-old | particularly the hot meals which mander, Gen. Fu Tso-Yi at Peip- Douglas MacKay ng.

They esti- mated th}t only the prompt trans- fer of the\12 government divisions now "sitting" on the Hulutao beach to Fu's cominand plus a rapid flow of war supplies would permit the northern general to hold his own with the Reds even temporarily. Radio reports from Mukden re- ceived here and in Shanghai said that heavy artillery fire roared in the Mukden suburbs from before'. dawn until noon. This indicated that government forces still in the city put up some resistancqg to the Communist troops, although the main national forces in Mukden were believed to have capitulated or fled before the Communist ad- vance. Competent authorities said that. 'Mukden's commander, Gen, Wei Li- .Huang, and other high officials had arrived in Peiping by plane, Gen. Tu Li-Ming, government field com- mander there, was said to have ar- rived at the Manchurian port of Hulutao, 150 miles southeast of Mukden, with the remnants of his Xe staff. Meanwhile, United States auth- orities in China ordered all Ameri- cans in North China to get ready to evacuate their homes for fear the civil war would envelop them. British authorities took similar ac- tion last week, 7 BOOST FOR ARMY London, Nov. 1 -- (CP) -- In the biggest boost for Britain's Ter- ritorial Army since the national re- cruiting campaign opened, the King Sunday took the salute from 8,000 officers and men and 800 women of the Territorials in Hyde Park. Ninety thousand lined the parade route to watch the smartly-uni- formed recruits swing past the Royal stand. POSTPONE RESIGNATION Athens, Nov. 1 -- (AP) -- The threatened resignation of the Greek coalition government was reported Sunday to have been postponed temporarily, possibly through inter- vention of the King. A source close Sophoulis said he would not act for at least eight to 10 days as the sult .of a truce with Sophocles Venizelos, deputy leader of the Lib- eral party. ROSSANO HELD TO DRAW New York, Nov. 1--Joey Carkido, 140%, Youngstown, O. flashed amazing form Saturday to hold heavily-favored Rocco Bossano, 140%, Brooklyn, to an eight-round draw before 2,900 at Ridgewood Grove. Carkido also inflicted a sev ere cut under Rossano's left eye, forcing him to withdraw from a main event against Tony Pellone here next Friday. : Ped | Frank Bray to Prime Minister Themistokles | R.

Justice Says Courts Here Good Enough Hull, Que., Nov. 1--(CP)--Chief Justice Rinfret of the Supreme Court of Canada says appeals to the Privy Council should be abol- ished. In a speech before the Quebec Rural Bar Association Saturday, he said he believed Canada was "big enough" to hope for autonomy in the matter of appeals to the Privy. Council. The Supreme Court of Canada | should be Canada's final court of | appeal. "The Privy Council seems to be lacking comprehension of the Ca* nadian legal administration with the passing years," Mr. Justic Rin- fret said. "In fact, the Supreme Court has often ruled in favor of the provinces, whereas the Privy Council has reversed these decisions because of lack of comprehension." . He urged Quebec members of the bar to "come before the Supreme Court and have no fears of pleading before us." French-speaking lawyers, he felt, had special aptitudes for practising law. The lating mentality, the logic and the methods of Quebec lawyers made them. superior to others in the province as well as to those in the rest of Canada. "Come often before the Supreme Court of Canada. Your cases will receive the same attention as those of your English-speaking conferes. In fact, they will receive more ate tention since my English-speaking colleagues on the bench are thor- oughly familiar with the French language." He commended delegates, com- pleting a three-day annual con- vention, for their excellent work on behalf of the legal profession throughout the province. Mrs. R. Molowney Mrs. L. Thompson G.

TWO RECAPTURED Prince Albert, Sask, Nov. 1 -- (CP) -- Two of four prisoners who escaped the Prince Albert jail last Thursday were recaptured Sunday by R.C.M.P. near Red Deer Hill, 14 miles south of here. . t TOLD IN TERMS OF TREACHERY Dewey is here today with his family to vote and to wait the re- sults in a Manhattan hotel suite. Only four Democratic gains would put the Senate back into that par- ty"s hands. The Republicans won both the House and Senate in the 1946 Congressional elections, but their hold on the Senate has been precarious and remains so. Two of the remaining nine presi- dential candidates have important roles in the contest although they have no hope or chance of becom- ing president in this election. Henry Wallace, founder and lead- er of the Progressive party, un- doubtedly will take a lot of votes that ordinarily would have been cast for Democratic candidates: South Carolina, leader of the so- called Dixiecrats--the Southern De- mocrats who broke with the na- tional party--is almost certain to win 38 electoral colleze votes in four southern States and perhaps more. members to be chosen in Tuesday's balloting. The winner of the elec- tion must control a majority of them, 265. If no candidate gots that majority the election will ba thrown into the House of Repre- sentatives where the state delega- tions--with one vote for each state Governor Strom Thurmong of | There are 531 electoral college | used to serve to the volunteer work- ers building the present Legion Memorial Hall during the winter of 1933-1934.
