The charge that Opposition mem-- bers were attempting to make political capital out of the Dionne bill was voiced by J. J. Glass (Liberal, St. An-- drew's). "Their action is hypocrisy--nothing else but hypocrisy," he declared heat-- edly. Leopold Macaulay (Conservative, South York) protested the word and asked the Chairman for a ruling. "I am ruling that it is an offensive word." said J. H. Clarke (Liberal, Windsor--Sandwich), Chairman of the committee of the whole. clause by clause. All clauses of the bill were passed, and the Premier an-- nounced that third and final reading would be given at the next sitting of the Legislature. ernment side. Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, physician to the Dionne family, was a spectator inl the House yesterday when the swrm' in connection with his famous charges broke. Premier Hepburn keenly re-- gretted that the bitter cross--firing cropped up when the famous doctor was himsel{ a visitor in the Chamber. Out of the heat came the announce-- ment from the Hon. David A. Croll, Minister of Public Welfare, and spon-- sor of the bill, that the active guar-- dians for the five babies would be their father, Oliva Dionne, and Dr. Dafoe. Unexpected Move.

The dignity of Queen's Park pro-- ceedings was rudely shattered when such phrases as "He's a liar," "hypoc-- risy" and "a punch in the nose" were hurled across the Legislative Chamber.

Objection Raised. It was precipitated by members of the Opposition, who took strong ob-- jection to terms of the bill designed to guard the welfare of these infants for thg next seventeen years.

This thought was shared [by Colonel Price. The latter moved along these lines, and was supported in the motion by Conservative mem-- 'bars of the Houss.

"The Minister of Welfare has al-- ready intimated <cthore will be only two active guardians," Colonsl Price stated, and wondered how agreement on all matters cou'ld thus be reached. "And they'll be lobbying from time to time to have these guardians sup-- planted," put in Colonel Price. He also objected to the clause giving the guardians the right to act on a ma-- jdority vote. the spectacle of lawyers around here lobbying already." "I don't think," Colonel Price re-- marked, "that the Hon. the Minister of Welfare realizes just how much power he is to assums. We have seen "They're here, all right," put in the Proemier. The main contention of the Opposi-- tion members was that the Minister of Public Welfare should not take on himself such wide powers as special suardian with power to pass on a!l contracts and have absolute control of the funds of the Dionne quintuplets. Amendment Suggested. Wilfrid Heighington (Conservative, St. David) appealed to the Premier to allow the bill to stand so that the Opposition members could present further their objections. When the House quieted down and all the clauses of the bill had been passed, with the House dividing and defeating two motions presented by the Opposition regarding a suggested change in the measure, the Premier asked that the bill be reported. "I had hoped." the Premier stated, "that this bill would be given a unanimous third reading, but it is obvious that will not be possible." "He'll get a punch in the nose," was a remark hurled from the Government back benches, but the speaker could not be spotted, not having risen in his "I am going to turn that request aside," the Premier announced. "I am calling for the report of the bill." The Chairmen then reported the bill passed in all its clauses without amendment. Colonel Price declared he would withdraw the statement as far as the House was concerned. _ "If you make it outside the House the Hon. Harry C. Nixon, Provincial Secretary, you know what you'll get," retorted Premier Hepburn jumped to his feet and declared heatedly: "I'll ask for a withdrawal. In all my Parliamen-- tary experience I have never heard a member called a liar." There was a murmer of protest throughout the Chamber. "I won't ask for a retraction, be-- cause I consider where the remark comes from," declared Mr. Glass. this House, he's a Colonel W. H. Price.

At this juncture Morgan Baker | (Liberal North York) declared that ! at one time Colonel Prices as At-- | torney--General had "diverted" chil-- | dren's funds to the Province. "I'm surprised." he declared, "to see the Government sit mum and call on their phalanx to get up and vote. The Attorney--General hasn't seen fit to answer a question. There is no at-- tempt on our part to thwart the intent of the bill. We are all in favor of proper guardianship, as is the whole Prov-- Co--operation Expected. "Mr. Dionne and Dr. Dafoe will work together," aseured the Minister of Welfare. "If they don't we can appoint another or more guardians as we foel the nsed arises." "We don't want to sit here and shoot cartridges at a olank wall," he said. Leopold Macaulay's motion that the name of the Minister of Welfare be stricken out as it related to "special guardianship'" met with the same fate as did the Price motion. The Leader of the Opposition, Hon. George S. Henry, was visibly angered when he rose to speak. "Blank cartridges," put in the Pro-- vincial Secretary. "What," asked Colonel Price, "is the Minisier going to do with the money in the trust fund?" To Invest Fund. Colonel Price jumped to his feet and demanded a retraction, which was given. "It was an attempt to divert funds in connection with the Millar will," Mr. Baker declarsd. Wilfrid Heighington assured the House the Opposition had nothing "'political" in mind in opposing cer-- tain clauses, but merely wanted a bill which would provide adequate guard-- ianship. He objected to the manner in which the Government passed over their objections. "Invest it," repliecd Mr. Croll. "Per-- haps in Province of Ontaric bonds."
