Canada's Ninth Victory Loan, launched, last October, had a minimum objective of 000, the biggest ever. Of that total, individual Canadians were asked to subscribe a minimum of $800,000.000.

Leroox, 31 Edward Ninth Members Paid $641 of New 'Allowance' Members of Parliament returned to their homes without a single cent of the allowance which was voted them by Commons and Senate in the dying days of the session. They will receive this indem nity increase the last day of De cember, when the cheques will be sent to their respective homes, The Journal was Informed this morning by Dr. Arthur Beau CM.C Clerk of the House of Commons. Don't Get 42.000. And the cheques will not be for $2,000.

Since the measure was made retroactive, only to September 6, date of the opening of the 20th Parliament of Canada, the amount of the allowance will be actually only $641.09. Since the allowance incidental to the duties of the members Is tax-free, they will get the entire amount with not a cent going into the coffers of Finance Minister Ilsley as income tax. Members were paid their regu lar indemnities on the last day of the session, at the rate of $20 a day. Dr. Beauchesne said, subject-to deductions' if they have been absent from the House with- out acceptable reason.

At the rat of $600 a month their in demnities ran a little over $2,000 gross. Deduction! for income tax purposes are on the deductlon-at the-source plan, with reports of marital and dependents status made to Dr. Beauchesne. Bachelor members like Prime Minister Mackenzie King get but a fraction of their indemnities owing, to income tax demands, but members with families of five, six or more young children take home their indemnities al most intact. Cheques for members of the Senate will be sent out -the last day of December, and will be $641.09 less varying deductions depending on' the marital status of Senators.

Since deductions are made only on the basis of "Parliamentary the average member of. the Upper House will get about $900. Since the Act granting mem' bars of Commons and Senate this new allowance is based on the calendar cheques cannot be sent out in- advance. It was ex plainer mat it a cneque were sent out on December 26 or and the recipient died that day, the Treasury officer who paid him might' be held responsible for overpayment. John Amery Continued from Page One.

Only a handful of stidieri and six civilians, all men, stood in the roadway outside the prison gates when Amery died. No public witnesses attended: Amery had been estranged from his family for years while he wandered the continent, i from escapade to escapade. They sought to save his life by having Julian, his brother, seek evidence in Spain that John had become a Spanish citizen. The evidence was never brought into court. One a continental playboy who loved flashy automobiles, the shrunken, sickly traitor had become a polite and quiet' man in his final weeks of life.

When the prison governor told him his last cnance ot reprieve was gone, Amery replied, "Thank you very mucn. sir. Amery was living on the Riviera when the ar started and, although he had shown ho pre vious interest in Nazism1 or poli tics, soon was heard broadcasting from France, Germany, Italy and other countries. He said in his broadcasts that the German army was defending European civilization, and urged Britain to surrender. Witnesses testified at his trial that he had keen selected by the Germans to be the British Quisling.

Since toy manufacturing suddenly advanced into the limelight ot Canadian industry two years ago, some 6.000 varieties of toys and games, have come to Prices Board headquarters in Ottawa for price fixation. Most of the toy collection is stored on rows of shelves in a sample room, despite the fact that articles are packed off daily to manufacturers who have requested their, return. A child would fancy himself in fairyland if he were given a free hand amongst the rows and rows of toys big ones and little ones, metal, wood, plastic and rubber.

Even two manly members of The, Journal staff could not resist the temptationto try out a very intriguing rocking horse and the latest models of sub-machine guns, and rifles created in wood. The sample room offers a fair display of Canada's advance in the toy industry during the war years. Great strides have been made, particularly since 1943. More than 40 percent of. the toys are made of wood.

The Ingenuity of small-scale manufacturers has created little men who tumble down ladders, clowns who turn somersaults, ducks which are propelled Ion wooden sticks to flap across the floor. Makers of stuffed animals have produced large numbers of teddy bears, puppy dogs and cats. Pressed canvas has replaced starched fabric in the more durable doll faces. Neaprene, a form of synthetic rubber of which there is now a surplus on the Ottawa Groups Continued Jrom Page One. But what may be "the letter of the the Canadian Legion drrfw for Victory Villa is not at 'all clear.

A legal expert in the Dominion Department of Justice explained to The Journal that there was nothing junlawful in a situation where two or more individuals owning a piece of property de cide to sell shares In it That is the procedure followed by Legion in "marketing Victory Villa. The Legion, i group, of individuals, presumably owns Victory Villa, and legally may sell "shares" as has been done. Whether the "drawing" for pos session of the property by the "shareholders" is illegal, was a point which the Justice Depart ment expert said likely could be settled only by a test case. The legal position of organised and regularly, scheduled bingos is clear. They are illegal and will-be banned In announcing the bingo ban the Attorney General said that "an occasional game may be held by religious or charitable organizations if the benefits go to "Organized, regularly scheduled bingos and lotteries should be Mr.

Blackwell told The Journal. "They always have been illegal, and no longer may they be permitted to continue." had been "numerous ap proaches" made to the Attorney General's Department he- said, "seeking an okay for certain bingos and Never had approval been given. "The obligation to uphold the law is 'essentially that of the local police authorities in the said Mr. BlackwelL "They know the law, and they can stop illegal acts. "As a matter of fact any member of the publie can force the closing of organised bingos and lotteries, even should the local authorities fall to act" To do this, the individual would be required to lay a charge.

"Some" lotteries and bingos in Ontario recently had been closed- through such action, disclosed Mr. BlackwelL The Attorney General had been forced to "crack-down" on the basis of the "very large number of complaints" received about bingos and lotteries. The Justice Department at Ottawa also has received "numerous After telling of the complaints he had been receiving, Mr. -Black-well disclosed that he would be sending out his letter of instructions today to the local Crown Attorneys directing them to see to it that the municipal police departments upheld the law. "Are you setting any deadline for police action?" he was asked.

"No, I am he replied. "I am not because I cannot These bingos and lotteries are illegal. If I set a deadline' for. police action I would be condoning the conducting of illegal activities between now and the expiration of that deadline." On the basis of actual fact, any deadline set would have been last night when Mr. Blackwell announced the On the basis of technicality, the deadline will be marked i by receipt by local Crown Attorneys of the Attorney General's letter of direction.

For most of Ontario that will be tomorrow. No local Crown Attorney could disregard instruction from the. Attorney General, and no local police department could ignore direction from the Crown Attorney. "In the Attorney- General was informed, "two local organizations are concerned with your ruling. One is holding a draw for a house, the other is conducting a regular bingo.

Both events are scheduled for this week. Can you say whether these organizations may proceed?" 'Thar, replied Mr. Blackwell, market has. served the Canadian toy-maker well for the creation of all sorts of rubber contraptions.

Most of the toys come from Quebec and Ontario, but mfere-and more are starting to come in from Vancouver companies. The Prices Board does not bother about toys created by hobbyists and sold at home on a small scale. Although many veterans and invalid servicemen have turned to this trade, their products are not watched by the Board as are those sold in retail stores across the country and become stock types in a short time. War Toys Oat of Styla. Looking around this glorified toyland, where members of the Prices Division meet bi-weekly to appraise the collection, it was obvious that replicas of the munitions of war are going out of style.

The new toys are reverting in type to the good old rocking horses, crazy dolls, floppy ducks, dump trucks and mechanized animals of the pre-war period. The king ot this unusual toy-land is the Toy Administrator, whose job it is to implement the nolicv of the Board with regard 1 to the control of children's play things.

Proceeds from the sale of shares in Victory Villa were ticketed by the Legion tor veterans' welfare. So far, not sufficient shares have been aold to cover the cost of building Victory Villa.

Doesnt Mean More Hockey. The ban on bingos will not provide many extra hockey nights at the Auditorium, according i to Manager Frank Gorman. He said the Lions Club only planned one or two bingos each month during the Winter and if the games were stopped the few free nights would soon be filled by hockey, although there would not be enough extra time at the rink to operate a new league. The Lions Club willingly set aside weekly bingo games to accommodate hockey, Mr. Gorman said, and he noted from his schedule of dates at the rink there were no arrangements for' bingo dates during January to February? He said the bingo this Friday was the only definite date set for the Lions Club this Winter, although it was agreed there would probably be about five held before Spring.

Ontario' crack-down on bingos, lotteries and raffles, as announced last night by Attorney General BlackwelL will have little effect on the province of Quebec, where such things have been discontinued for the past four years. The Evening Journal learned today. "Following many complaints to the effect that bingos and lotteries were causing too much abuse in Crown Attorney Jacques Boucher told Tho Journal, "provincial authorities clamped down oh such schemes.

From Port Hood, a village on the. west coast of Cape Breton Island, came word that the decommissioned corvette is hard aground on tiny Henry' Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. In formation from Port Hood says the vessel drove ashore during a terrific gale.

Six hours after the Sorel grounded in eight feet of water more than 75 yards from, shore, one of her crew volunteered to swim to land with, a line. Later, other crewmen reached shore over the line and sought shelter in a lighthouse, it was said.
