6 THE OSHAWA 'TIMES, Tuesday, July 25, 1967 ne ue ___|New Employment Scheme | | =. -- ToBePresented In Fall MONTREAL (CP)--The Fi- s/nancial Times of Canada says the federal government is plan- "|ning to present to Parliament in the fall a new unemployment insurance scheme. The scheme would cover all working Canadians, raise maxi- mum benefits to at least $65 a 'lweek from $36, and require increased contributions of about $100,000,000 a year from both =lemployers and employees, the paper says in a story from Ot- tawa by Michael Cassidy. "An additional $40,000,000 a Kingston, Ont., but he gave no details . General framework of the new plan has been accepted by ministers, says the paper. INCREASE COVERAGE The working Canadians cov- ered would include those self- employed. The coverage "would add about 2,500,000 Canadians to the 5,300,000 now covered by un- employment insurance." There would be no income limit. Under the scheme, "workers now insured and their employ- ers would continue to contribute -- Taxpayers Saved $4 Million By National Parole Board al mates of federal prisons.

Eleven women have been hanged since Confederation, mostly for unimaginative murder. Here are stories of three who avoided the hang- man plus one who ranks among the world's great flim-flam experts, male or fe- male, CONFIDENCE ARTIST Cassie Chadwick was an Ontario girl who perfected one of the most artistic con games of all time. Cassie, born Lizzie Begley near Woodstock in 1857, was homely, dumpy, partly deaf and had a speech impedi- ment, But she was a superb actress and a sharp psycholo- gist, and she had nerves of iron. Mrs. Chadwick--she had married a member of Cleve- land society after leaving home because of some ama- teurish forgery -- got her big start around 1902 by letting word get about that she was the illegitimate daughter of Andrew Carnegie, the steel king After this had settled in, she turned up at a Cleveland bank with a: tied-up parcel which, informed the man- ag 000,000 in Carne- money. she 1 the vault for n Cas | i blushes and the mana- ger's delicacy, no one thought ing the suitcase with a baby's body in it out to be a child of Evelyn, Bohozuk murdering it. three--plus MacLean's --were promptly charged with murder. a accessory - after - the - fact search- found a Meanwhile, police Dick home c turned Si The youngster pre-marriage and she and © were charged with fh Evelyn went on trial first on the charge of killing her husband and was convicted on the strength of her state- ment. The charge against her mother was thrown out at preliminary hearing. When the other two went on trial, Mrs. Dick refused to testify against them, earning a cita- tion for contempt of court along with her death sen- tence. The other two trials were deferred while Mrs. Dick ap- pealed the murder conviction. The Ontario Court of Appeal ruled out her statement and gave her a_ new trial, at which she was acquitted. At a third murder trial--this one for the baby's death--she was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to life. Boho- zuk was quickly acquitted of murder in both deaths. ] Donald MacLean went on trial for the Dick killing but CELEBRATING CANADA'S CENTENNIAL wife the worked for the judge took the murder way from the jury and ted a guilty plea to an MacLean, who Hamilton treet Railway, later pleaded uilty to stealing 26,200 tick- ts that had been found in his ome during the murder in- ion. He got five-year ent sentences on each harge . Dick proved a model prisoner--she played an angel n a Christmas play in prison --and was freed in 1958. THE BANNISTER CASE Mrs. May Bannister needed a ready-made baby about six months old. As a result, five people died, The evidence in New Bruns- wick's most widely-known criminal case was that she was engaged in 1936 in trying to raise money from two men by convincing each that he was the father of a child of hers. There was no infant, so she first displayed a doll wrapped in baby clothes. That didn't work, so she looked around for a real baby Her two sons and a daugh- ter set out to kidnap six- months-old Betty, daughter of Philip and Bertha Lake, who her husband's gation of murder.

The cabin was doused with gasoline and set afire. The mother ran out with her 20-months-old son Jackie. She was chased and battered to death. Jackie was left where he fell and died in sub-zero weather. Police found Betty in' the Bannister home. .The sons, Arthur, 19, and Daniel, 20, were hanged later the same year. The mother, convicted of harboring the abducted Betty, got three years. in prison. Daughter Frances, 15, was charged with abduction but testified for the prosecu- tion and the charge was dropped. BABES IN THE PARK On an October day in 1947, a woman wearing a fur coat and carrying an odd-looking hatchet walked into Vancoun- ver's Stanley Park with two children. A little later she left the park without the coat ,hatchet or children, and hobbling on only one shoe. More than five years later workmen came across the year would also be added to ~|federal taxes." The Financial Times says the increase in benefits was indi- cated last week by Labor Min- ister Nicholson in a speech at New Zealand Plans Undersea Parks AUCKLAND, N.Z.

If the government maintained its present share of contribu- tions to the unemployment in- surance fund, "'this year's gov- ernment contribution to the fund will amount to about $74,000,000, plus $42,000,000 for administra- tion." The paper says the new maxi- mum _ weekly benefit will "be raised automatically from year to year" through the pegging of benefits to the cost of living or to the average weekly wage.

Up to now, no one has been able even to identify the youngsters, despite a hunt that has stretched across Canada and into several | countries. As police reconstruct it, the woman took the youngsters into the park on the entice- ment of a picnic--remains of a lunch basket were found-- and then smashed their heads in with the lather's hatchet. In a moment of compassion, apparently, she tossed her coat over the bodies. Then she left in a panic, leaving a shoe behind.
