CAN'T PAY FREIGHTJHCREASE Producers, Shippers, Consumers Appear Before Transport Board Commissioners COMMITTEE TO ASK JAPS' LANDS PROBE Public Accounts Body Accepts Homuth Proposal as Study of Deals Completed an Order-in-Council had been adopted voting $85,000 for construction of a hoi-pita1, in the North Shore region between Natashquan and Blacri Sablon in the Gulf of St. 4k A i Ottawa.

May 30. The Commons' Committee on Public Accounts accepted today a proposal by Karl Homuth (PC Waterloo South) that it recommend to Parliament the appointment of a com-, mission to investigate dealings in evacuated Japanese lands in British Columbia. The proposal was approved un-nanimously and it is considered likely that the Government will shortly appoint a Royal Commission. He suggested that the steering committee, in drafting an interim report on the Japanese question, make that recommendation and Acting Committee Chairman Gordon Isnor (L Halifax) said the draft would be placed before the whole committee before going to the House. This climaxed committee study of the sale of the Japanese properties by the Custodian of Enemy Property.

Mr. Isnor said Gordon Murchison, director of the Veterans Land Act, could be recalled for testimony after he presented figures on prices charged veterans for the Japanese lands. Otherwise "we are just about through" with that particular subject. At the outset of a committee meeting, John Diefenbaker (PC Lake Centre) asked if it was the intention to have C. George Mc-Cullagh, publisher of the Toronto Globe and Mail, appear as announced by Veterans Minister Mackenzie in the Commons, as a result of editorial comment on sale of Japanese lands.

He also asked if Mr. Mackenzie would be called. He said the paper had published another editorial but the essential facts still stood and had been proved in committee. Mr. Isnor thought it best to take no action to have Mr.

Mackenzie appear before the committee with regards to his statement in the Commons. "It would serve no good purpose by calling him or any other member who makes a statement of that kind," he said. "We have more important work to do."

4 Police Station yester day when six gallant steeds left their police stables forever for the green pastures ot bte. Anne ae Bcllcvuc. Because ace affects anything phy sical, Big Boy, General Haig, Don, Bob, Bumps and Noble have Deen forced into ictirement. Once young and proud, they pranced briskly along Mount Royal. They tossed their heads ostentatiously and drew many admiring comments Irom children and adults alike.

They were happy then and a bit giddy. But youth is youth every where. Time marched on and the six horses grow older. Their legs were not as sturdy as the days of yore and their bodies became weak. They had devoted a lifetime to work and were very tired.

Several weeks ago, authorities decided that the six horses had outlived their usefulness. Two were to be maintained and four others were to be destrcyed. Such was their reward for gallant ser vice. But there is sentiment and love in the world, and people who remembered them on the mountain did not agree that the animals should be destroyed. Nor did their police masters.

Letters made city autnormos change their minds. Yesterday, in a ceremony tnat was touching and sad, two of the gallant steeds were taken to an S.P.C.A. ambulance, which would bring them to their new home. The others will leave today. While Acting Director Charles Barnes, Insp.

J. Laviolette, E. Hughes, of the City Recuperation Department, and William Dunlop, of the S.P.C.A., looked on, General Haig, Don. Big Bey. Bob.

Bumps and Noble lined up with their masters before the final goodbye. Their coats shining clean, their eyes clear iir spite of age, the six animals posed for photographers KnuwiriH, pernaps, tnat this wpuld be their last photo. Big Boy looked. at Lt. Adolphe Dresser, who was holding the steed by the reins, and kissed him.

A great bond of friendship can exist between man and horse, and in 17 years, Big Boy and Lt. Dresser had come about as close to comradeship as animal and man could ever come. "You're going to miss him," said a police constable to Lt. Dresser. "We have been together for 17 years.

That's a long time, and" I'm going to miss him very much." There was a lump in his throat when Lt. Dresser said those words. ROOKIE POLICEMEN SEEN IN EXHIBITION Sixty-one Cadets Are Graduated to Force in Presence of High Officials Sixty-one police cadets, forming the largest of post-war training classes, graduated yesterday morn ing io iuii-iieagea policemen in an impressive ceremony held at the Montreal Police Training School. In the presence of Mavor Camil ien Houde, Acting Director Charles Barnes and Assistant Director Alfred Belanger, of the Montreal Police Department, the rookies gave an exhibition of military precision drill, jiu-jitsu and physical training and demonstrated their athletic prowess on the parallel burs nnd the high imnp, where each constable cleared five feet In height. An exhibition of swimming and life-saving was also given.

The class underwent a rigorous six-week training program, which apart from physiczil training and drill, included the study or firearms, criminal law and municipal biw. The courses were conducted under the leadership of Inspector Albert Langlois nd Lt. Gustav Disc iir. It was the third group of police trainees to graduate this year. The first class graduated in January, and the second class comprised of policewomen graduated in March.

Pr.nee Edward Island's producers, shippers and consumers cannot afford to pay increased freight rates, the Board of Transport Commissioners was told today as it closed the Maritime phase of its regional rate sessions. Spokesmen for farming and fishing the big industries of Canada's province end for co-operatives and boards of trade united in registering strong opposition to the railways' proposals to hoist their freight charges by 30 per cent' and one declared this step would be disastrous" to the Island's economy.

Reception of evidence from the witnesses here concluded a nine-day tour of the Maritimes during hich the Board, which had spent three months in Ottawa hearing the railways' side of the case, heard the views of those who would pay this bill. Early next month the Board moves into the West for a similar series of hearings opening June 9 at Major points in today evidence wr re: 1. W. R. Shaw.

Deputy Minister of Agriculture, declared in a brief that the proposed rate increase would be disastrous to the province's agricultural economy. 2. The Prince Edward Island Potato Growers' Association said increases would handicap growers in entering Canadian markets and force them to resorl to steamer hiprrpnts. 3. The Co-operative Union of rnr.ee Edward Island said they would set back co-operative members economically and discourage them from continuing their efforts to help themselves.

4. S. F. Burhoe. manager of a Charlottetown fish processing firm, declared the "very existence" of tr island's fishery was at stake r.ow and it could not stand higher production costs.

5. Trie Charlottetown Board of Trade, associated with other provincial boards of trade, said in a brief that rate raises "would be detrimental, not only to our people bit to the railways, who stand to valuable long-haul freight us mess." Railway traffic here could not bear the proposed added charges, the brief declared. Judgment Is Reserved In C.N.R.-C.S.L. Suit Sarnia May 30. KP, Mr.

Justice Walter Schroeder reserved jjdgment today in the Fun involving a claim of $550,000 by the Canadian National Railways and a rounter claim in excess' of $3,000,000 by the Canada Steam- t.n;p Lines. Bo'h raim and counter claim rc silled from a 1045 fire which de roved the Point Edward freight snrd owned by the C.N. ft. and gut ted the C.S.L- passenger boat, SS. Hamonic.

John R. Cartwright, counsel for the C.N.R. claimed, while the actual location of a battery-charg ins shop at the time of the fire was not included in the original lease the fact that the original site had been surrendered to the railway company should be construed to bring it within the terms of the lease. He maintained the C.S.L. should indemnity the plaintiffs.

Frank Wilkinson, K.C.. for the C.S.L.. based his argument mainly on the claim that the original irreement signed between the two parties or their legal predecessors in linis was stui vana. He advanced as an alternative to his main claim, that all freight in the sheds, on the docks, and in ra.lwav cars was the sole resnonsi b.litv of the plaintiffs, an argument based on joint tenancy and joint i.aoility. D.

L. McCarthy, representing the plaintiff steamship company, dis cussed the legal effects or the various agreements and leases be tween the two companies. He said the 1919 agreement was a "freight handling arrangement" and left the legal situation unaltered, thus the lecal liability flowed from the 1903 agreement. Mr. Justice Schroeder told the rour.se that they had fiven him "a great oeal to think about and pon cer over ana he hoped to give judgment in tne near future.

(P) Sentence of death was pronounced on handsome, unemotional Harry Medos, 22, in Supreme Court here tonight for the murder of Constable Charles Boyes in a Feb.

26 False Creek gun battle. He was sentenced to be hanged Wednesday, July 30. Medos, pale-faced, gave no outward sign as he heard the 12-man jury return a verdict of "guilty as charged" and Mr. Justice A. M.

Manson pronounce sentence. No defence witnesses were called during the five-day trial. Boyes. together with Constable G. O.

Ledingham and 19-year-old gunman Douglas Eldon Carter were killed in the gun-battle which followed a frustrated bank hold-up.

Income Tax Assessing Denied 'Years Behind' Ottawa, May 30. p) Revenue Minister McCann said tonight in the Commons he did not think the Income Tax Department was as much as years behind in making income tax assessments.

He was replying to Howard Green, (PC Vancouver South) who asked how far behind the department was in the handling of returns. The exchange came on a budget resolution which would amend the income tax law as it applied to those who overpaid their income tax and did not file a return. In the past, claims for overpayments by those who did not file a return had to be made within 12 months. In future the claims may be made even beyond the 12-month period. had been named dean of the faculty of philosophy at Laval in 1938.
