A London Man Surrenders MONTREAL, April 30.

Thomas Ciavert, 20, of London, walked into one of tho local police stations today and announced that he was wanted by the London police for haring passed a bad cheque of $40 on a bicycle company of that city. Local police immediately wired the London officials to check up on Clarerts story.

Belle River anti Tecumseh residents are laying plans for a bitter battle against the routing of the new provincial highway from tho bridgehead through Roseland, 1 Maidstone and Rochester.

Belle River peo- pie have reorganized their board of trade to carry on a campaign of protest. They are strongly in favor of the new waterfront roa-l from Belle River to Amherstburjr being built this year, aa are other affected municipalities.

An indignation meeting has been called for Thursday night at Belle River to launch a drive against the route proposed at present. Earl H. Taylor, member of the Thames River Highway Committee. and chairman of the publicity committee of the Essex County Automobile Club, who lives at Belle River, made the following statement th morning: DEPEND ON TOURISTS Riverside, Tecumseh and Belle River merchants depend largely on the tourist traffic to maintain their businesses. Were this traffic routed so that it missed our municipalities.

it would be the most serious blow that the waterfront towns have ever received, from a commercial standpoint, and we intend to fight to the finish against this being done. Mr. Taylor further claimed that not only merchants or rural centres mentioned would be affected, but that it would deprive Windsor merchants of every vesta ge of tourist trade and have grave results on Border Cities hotels. 4' Constructive Statement Expected at Chamber Meet Thursday Hon. W.

H. Price, attorney general of Ontario, will outline his ideas on amalgamation of-Bie Border communities when he addresses the Border Chamber of Commerce at its regular luncheon, next Thursday noon. HAS NOT SPECIFIED SCOPE On several occasions in the past Mr. Price has indicated, unmistakably, that he favors amalgamation. As yet, however, he has not stated clearly how comprehensive an amalgamation he favors.

Mr. Price will arrive in Windsor next Thursday morning, by automobile, an will make his headquarters at the Prince Edward hotel over Friday. Following the chamber luncheon, to which all mayors, councillors and citizens of the various Border communities are cordially Invited, Mr. Price will make a tour of the Border Cities, calling on the officials of each corporation to hear, first hand, all the facts about amalgamation. It is not expected that there will be any general meeting of municipal officials during his visit here.

MUCH THOUGHT GIVEN Mr. Price has given a great deal of thought and consideration to the question of amalgamation, Justus Miller, managing secretary of the chamber said today. In his position as attorney general he is bound to do so, on account of the quantity of legislation relative to the Border Cities that comes be fore the private bills committee. Every person that is interested in amalgamation. no matter what personal stand he may have in the matter, is urged to hear Mr.

Price speak. Having considered the question from many angles, over a period of time, Jie no doubt has some excellent ideas to give us. It Is an important matter, having a distinct' bearing on the future of the entire Border district. Urges Deep Lake Channels WASHINGTON, April 30.

The meeting will open at 7:30.

Councillor R. J. Moore, chairman I of the finance committee, this morning instructed Town Clerk J. F. Foster to inform the school board of this meeting, so that the members may be present to support their application.

Certain councillors hold that a 12-room school is too large, and have stated that a smaller school would suit the requirements of the Giles- I Francois district for the present. Edward Morris, chairman of the school board, however, has said that the board will confer with the finance committee at Us meeing, and will be able to impress upon it the necessity for a 12-room school. As the plans are said to call for 12 classrooms and an auditorium. Councillor Moore today implied Ihct the board will have to show him the necessity of this auditorium. At the same time, Moore said he believes that a 12-classroom schvil and not a smaller one should be built.

TRADE MAN COMING Wall Street Closing NEW YORK, April 30. The market closed today with prices irregular on the stock exchange. Heavy calling of loans brought the call money rate to 6 percent, equaling the highest of the year and caused selling late in the day. The market opened strong, rose consistently until the early afternoon, reacted, and toward the close recovered sharply. Oils were the features, most of them rising to new high ground for the year or longer.

Special issues like Otis Elevator and Coty made sensational gains. Rails were quieter. U.S. Steel, General Motors and Radio recovered as did General Electric. Describing the market the Wall Street Journals Financial Review today said: Stocks were forced to absorb a large volume of selling in the opening session of the week.

After aa early display of strength on large buying orders from the Interior, the general list turned reactionary, and good sized recessions took place in the principal trading vehicles. The reason for this setback was to be found in a flurry In the call money market. Hanks withdrew 340,000,000 in preparation for the heavy May 1 interest and dividend disbursements. This depreciation caused the demand rate to tighten to 5 1-3 percent and then to percent, compared with a renewal charge of 5 ALLEN Elizabeth, 84 years, April 29, 1928, Rt her late residence.
