KM George S. Henry, Conservative House leader, in the legislature today attacked the administration of Ontario's liquor laws. In so doing he put himself on record i. a i 1 "I UTTI "HU for certain restaurants and of the 25-cent alngle purchase liquor permits. Speaking in the Throne Speech debate, Mr.

Henry aaid he wondered why the speech made no mention of the Liquor Control Act Iu adminiitration waa "making a stink throughout the province no matter where you go." Mr. Henry also criticized the Governments power policy which uiciuucu caniTiia nun contracts with Quebec firms. Attacks Power Purchases. "Two years ago in this House the Attorney Genersl said the province didn't require a single horsepower from Quebec. What do wa find him and Hydro doing now? Buying more power.

Going from atrength to strength. They have bought all the Ottawa Valley they can get: all the Gatineau except the (10-cycle which is in reserve; one-third of Maciaren and they'll shortly be buying from Beauharnois." Control of liquor distribution has been lost entirely, ha said. Regulations are not stringent enough and local opinion is dure garded In the sale of authorities. A policy of expansion of liquor sale facilities to make more profit was being followed, apparently with the authority of Premier Hepburn. Mr.

Henry spoke for two hours and a half and was followed by Premier Hepburn who spoke 30 minutes until adjournment The Premier will resume the debate Tuesday. "It Is far tsar juatlflable to give sale authorities ta rea-lanraata In large cities than to eetae ef the dives that hsva these." aaid Mr. Heavy, alls-leasing the Hqaac law administration.

Nixon challenged him to name a specific instance. George (Conn, Cren-vtlle-Dundas) aaid Ryan's Hotel, Morrisburg, was such a case. "Where's Morrisburg?" asked the Premier. "Is Ryan not a proper person to have a license, Mr. Nixon queried.

Expenditure wer made IftvUh-ly in rertain ridings, continued Mr. Henry, He- referred to a subway on the hiRhway near Brockvilie 'or us of "inf te answer that." said George Fulferd (Lib. Leeds). "That culvert haa been in the highway ever alnre It waa taken over by the Drury government In 1921.

Henry aaid his warning three weeki ago of a possible breakdown at the Queenston )vdro plant hlJ jujtffled by eoinl out of CommlJ sion. The plant was Being run at too-near capacity. The commission was seeking to drew the last ounce of power out of the machinery. Attorney-General Arthur Roebuck, Hydro Commissioner, aaid this was not true. Only 450,000 horsepower was being developed end the plant had a potential output of 400,000 horsepower.

Power waa limited by the water not by the machinery. Mr. Henry aaid he saw not far hence the day an increase in Hydro rates would be necessary bersuse a new commission would fellow the present one that "is living from day to day on a hand to mouth basis." Questions the Motive. Referring fo the abolition of the Department of Northern Development and the taking over of most of iu work by the Department of Highways, Mr. Henry wondered if the move was sll tor economy.

"Was there no thought of the minister who spent 17.000,000 in his own riding?" he asked. "Most of it wss spent under contractual obligations of the previous Government," said Premier Hepburn. Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of 1-ands snd Forests, entered the argument when Mr. Henry charged 609.000 had been spent on six miles of road which had been In use for years.

"It ia an entirely new road," said Mr. Heenan. "It la weat of Kenora. The fact ia ex-Premier Bennett signed the agreement tor the $003,000 expenditure. Bennett's no fool." Premier Hepburn aald hia Government had not been a leader in repudiation.

Employers who prevent workers from voting or seek to Induce them to stay away from the polls would be subject to a fine up to $500 snd a Jail term up to one year, In an Elections Act amendment approved today by the Commons Elections and Franchise Committee. A proposal the Government pay cost of transmitting election re turns on election night by tele phone and telegraph to returning officers from their deputies was rejected.

A majority of committee members felt the Government should not be asked to bear the expense. Those in favor of the suggestion urged it would expedite, the col lection of returns and would prevent duplication of expense among political organizations and news papers. At the last committee meeting, there was support for the proposal and Jules Caatonguay, chief electoral officer, was Instructed to draft amendments to mske it pos sible, but substantisl objection developed today.

1 One of Letden in Order and Conservative Politic Dies Two Dayi After His Wife. TORONTO, Feb. 18 KR-Hon. Horatio Clarence Hocken, Conser vative Senator and for 21 years a prominent figure in political life, died tonight in Toronto General Hospital. Senator Hocken, 19 years old, was stricken with a gall bladder ailment and later developed pneumonia, which caused his death at 8.45 p.m.

He became seriously ill in Ottawa last Wednesday and was returned to Toronto. While tn hospital his wife died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William R. Plewman, of Toronto. Buffered Frees 8 heck.

The Senator ahowed signs of improvement yesterdey, but due to his age and the shock of his wife's death Tuesday, he was unable to overcom the pneumonia attack. According to tentative arrangements, Senator Hocken and his wife will be buried at a double funeral Saturday. Services will be held in St. Clsir United Church. They were married in 1840.

Noted aa aa Orange leader. Senator Herkea was Grand Master ef the Grand Orange Ledge ef Ontario West and Grand Master ef British North America. In IMS he par-ehaaed the Orange Sentinel, becoming editor, a peat be retained for tl years, Hon. H. C.

Hocken attained the Senate December 30, 133, after 21 years of elective public service as controller and mayor of his native city of Toronto and member of Parliament for one of its ridings. He reached the pinnacle of the Orange Order as Grsnd Msster for British North America and won success in business by sll the regular steps from "printer's devil" to editor and publisher. Yet, it was not luck thst took Hocken to the high positions he came to occupy; it waa a natural progress by virtue of the sterling qualities which were the man. From the beginning he had a natural gift of self-expression, and a wide reading helped things along. From beginning to end, he was a staunch Conservative and he was an Orangeman, but his Orangism was not Irish; it was the relative detachment of a man of Cornish descent from the intensity of the Ulster passion.

And the slogan which he selected tor the Orange Sentinel when he rjurchaaed it in 1905 rerrtained the same as long aa his connection with the publics' Uon continued: "One School, One Flag, a United Canada." His Newspaper Career. When Hon. George Brown had the Toronto Globe, Hocken was learning the printing trade in its composing room, and in 1H2 he went to the Toronto News ss foreman, a position he held for 10 years. On the appearance of the mechanical setting machines, Hocken led a strike of the men, leaving the paper with the entire staff, and in company with W. P.

Maclean (later editor of the Toronto World) and W. H. Parr ha. established-the. loronta of which he -became business manager.

He returned to the News, however, in the capacity of reporter and specialized in municipal news. He became managing editor of the News in 1S, remaining till 1M1 when he went to St Thomas, Ont, to become editor of the Journal. He returned to Toronto and the News in 1902, this time as editorial writer of the publication. Oa the death ef C. P.

It was natural that thia early newspaper experience should give "Race" Hocken aa abnormal thirst for politics, but instead of following the usual course for entrance Into municipal politics, through the Board of Education and as alderman, Hocken in 1907 suddenly announced his candidature for the Board of Control and was elected.

As a controller he wss re-elected in 1M and 1909, but in 1910 when he aspired to mayoral honors, against G. R. Geary, he was defeat ed, only, in 1U and 1(12 to be returned again to the Board of Control with overwhelming majorities. When Mayor Geary resigned in the Fall of 1(12 to become corporation counsel of the city of Toronto, the Board of Control elected Hocken mayor, and in 1(11 and 1(14 the electors themselves returned him to the office of chief magistrate of the city.

provided the theme of Mr, Lajoie'a argument For many years, he said. Wabas-so's employes had lived in harmony with their employers, but seeds of discontent were sown when Alzee Baatien, organizer for the united Textile- Workers America, appeared among them. Pretext for Strike. Counsel recalled that one chief grievances waa the replacement of men by female worken on the middle shift from three P.m. to 11 p.m.

This waa the pretext for the strike. He defended the position taken by Wabaaso, recalling the low wages paid to men who were lathers of families were not a paid through the company' choice. The depression had prompted the city authorities to urge on the company me desirability of employing more heads of families and thus keeping them off relief. The company had consistentlv ooscrvra oom we letter and the spirit ot the minimum wage law of Quebec, he said. This had ap plied only to female workers, there being no such legislation governing male employee.

With regard to trades unions and requests collective agreements oe esiaoiisnea, Mr. Lajoie said mis situation had been crnnntl. cated by the fact that more than one union waa operating and eeexing recruits among the mill-workers. The International Union, represented by Mr. Baatien.

and the Catholic Worken' Union were both endeavoring to organize the employes. The difficulty which Pny laced was to know ith which one to deal.
