 Debate Boils Over
icy
Gov't Stand Reaffirmed After
C.C.F. Asks for Inauguration Plans
: By GEORGE KITCHEN
'••      Cahadian Press Staff Writer
OTTAWA, April 5(CP)-rHeaith Minister Martin tpld the
Commons-tonight there has been no change in the Federal
policy of national health insurance and said the Federal health
grants now being paid; to the Provinces 'are 'a "fundamental
prerequisite." to the establishment of such a scheme.
He reaffirmed the policy of 1945, when the Dominion
proposed a system of grants for health planning and organ-
izatfcfh to the Provinces, with the proviso that the Provinces
tigree   to   adopt   compulsory
health' insurance.
He spoke in a day-long debate on
national health matters which raked
over a raft of repetitious* discussion
of the 1945 Dominion-Provincial
Conference and' provoked spasmodic "crossfire between leading members of the Government and the
Opposition.
George Drew, Progressive Conservative leader, stepped into the
debate with a demand that the Dominion call into being the Co-ordinating and Economic Committees of
the 1945 conference and instruct
them to gather all the facts essential
to the carrying out of a national
health plan.
Hit JUSTIFICATION       ':',
He ran into conflict with Defence
Minister Claxton when he said
there.had been "complete" agreed
ment between all Provinces at that
conference on the desirability of a
health program. .*-.'*:
Mr. Claxton'said he failed to find
in the conference records "any
Justification" for Mr. Drew's statement
The debate boiled up earlier in
the sitting when M. J, Coldwell,
CCF. Leader, pressed the Government point-blank for a statement
on'when it would proceed with its
promised health insurance plan.
Mr. Martin said he did not think
it was "fair" of Mr. Coldwell to
•ay that the Government's program' was .one of "retreat"  On
tthe contrary, It had ben one of
''constant advance," though perhaps It had not moved ahead as
quickly as some would have liked.
He recalled that the Prime Minister had said the new -grants, announced a year ago, were to assist
the Provinces to set up the machinery for eventual hospital and medical car insurance. It was up to the
Provinces to work out their own
plans. That was the way lt must be
under Canada's Federal system.
The program could succeed only
If Dominion  respected Provincial
rights and  obligations under the
constitution.
IN PREPARATION
Mr.. Martin said there ivas. need
for a "preparatory state" in getting
a national health plan'going. That
was under way now. The Dominion
had worked out arrangements under
its scheme with the nine Provinces,
all of which were co-operating fully.
.That in itself was an achievement.
"This plan," he said, "is-going to
realize the sgreat purpose to which
it was dedicated.". •-.••.'
,' Mr. Drew said that "no matter
how perfect" a health plan might be
no government could go ahead until
there had ben a division of authority and asgr'eements delegating that
authority. There would have to be
an allocation of taxing powers.
He felt it "silly" for the Dominion
to say that the Dominion-Provincial
Conference should not be convened
with an election in the offing. There
always were elections approaching,
in one Province or another, and the
conference should be without regard "to the political winds.
. M.-.J. Coldwell, C.CF, Leader
tipped the Chamber into the developing debate when he rose on a
Government-motion:,to go into supply and posed these questions for
Health Minister Martin:
"The House and the country
needs fo know, by means of a categorical statement, whether the Government of .Canada is in fa,vor of
national health insurance or not?
"If it is in favor of national health
insurance, when is it going to take
the initiative in bringing it about?"
He brought up the question, he
said, because "there are rumors that
a Federal election is in the air."   -
He ■ recalled  that the   Government   had   Introduced   a   draft
health Insurance bill prior to the
1945 general election and had paraded It "up and down the country" ai a bill the Government
would "do something with" If reelected. Nothing had been heard
of It since.

KING PAPERS

Transfer of
30-Year Records   '

'ENDURING VALUE'
OTTAWA, April 5 (CP) -
. Former , Prime Minister Mackenzie King tonight announced
that the collection of documents
he acquired In nearly 30: years
as leader of the Government or
of the Opposition has been
placed. In the 'Canadian Public
Archives "practically In Its entirety."
He said the transfer of this
huge accumulation of records
began In 19-W,-'-'- X'
■'. At the same'time he began distribution of personal books, records
and documents he had collected, to
various departments of Governments which might be interested.
Mr. King, who gave up leadership of the Liberal Party last Summer and Vacated the Prime Ministership in November, issued a
general statement on the .subject
of documents in his possession.
, lie had hoped, he. said, that
retirement yoiUd.givaVhtn^an-..jafc

in such form that those likely to
have "an enduring value" 'might
become a I permanent possession of
the nation and made > available to
the: public at os early a date as
possible,'..',
"I had also hoped that retirement might afford opportunity for
recording,some of the experiences
of. a long and eventful life,".he
said.       '_ '■'•'
However, the statement gave no
indication of the progress he has
made on this project.
He said the conditions of transfer,
if documents and such material to'
the Archives were stated in a
formal exchange with the' Dominion Archivist. Mr. King stated the
intention of the transfer ln these
words;
"My  Intention   In  transferring
this part of my correspondence
to the-Archives It to-have thli
correspondence,  In  whole, or  In
part, and such additional correspondence, as for a similar reason,
I may feel It desirable-to send on
to the Archives, placed permanently In the Archives."
The purpose in having the transfer made, even before I had had
an opportunity ot looking it over
myself,   was, that   it   might   be
examined,   without   delay,   as   to
those   portions   which   might   be
deemed to be of permanent national

Injured. There were 108 patients.
The   Red   Cross   reported   34

B. Rlnehart said he expects the
death'toll will be about 65.
The hospital was destroyed. Officials estimated damage at $500,000.
. Same patients, including expectant mothers, leaped from fiery
Windows, Bedfast patients shrieked
in agony as the flames turned the
haven of mercy into a raging
inferno.
Heroic nuns and nurses braved
sheets: of flame ln attempts to save
the sick. Several perished with
their charges. One was a nurse,
Miss Fern Riley; 23. She died trying
to rescue the babies.
A nun detected the fire shortly
before! midnight in a... laundry

quickly, "like a ball of -Hire."

By JOHN LEBLANC
Canadian Press Staff Writer
OTTAWA, April 5 (CP) — Canada's $70,000,000-a-year legal battle
over freight-rate increases came to
an end. today.
'After a final day of arsgument
froni a battery of railway counsel,
the Board of Transport Commissioners  reserved  decision  on  the
railways' application for a general
20 per cent hoist in freight tolls.
The Board gave no Indication
when judgment would be handed
down   In  the  case,  which   was
launched last July and which has
been under, hearing since Jan. 11.
Closing   out   sessions   that   sent
about 1,500,000 words Into the records, Chief Commissioner M. B,
Archibald observed only that the
Board had a great mass of material to assess before fjndlng a
verdict
Expectations were: that it would
be several weeks, If not a matter ot
months, before a judsgment was announced. Last year, the Board deliberated more than three months before awarding the carriers a 21-
per-cent increase at the end of
more than a year of sittings, '
It was expected the Board wbuld
not take as long in the present case,
although lt also is working at present on a decision ln another major
issue—the British Columbia Governments application 'for removal
of the above-normal "mountain differential" rate on some freight hauls
over the-RpckieS. .    ;
Hearings in the mountain differ-

With the 20 per cent case out of
the day, the fregiht-rate spotlight
shifts immediately to the Royal
Commission on Transportation under Hon. W. F. A. turgeon, ordered
by Cabinet to undertake a broad inquiry of national transportation
problems, expected to be concentrated heavily on the contentious
freight-rate question.
Tomorrow morning, railway and
Provincial legal counsel and.other
experts are, to meet here with members of the Commission and their officials. It was expected they will get
together on an agenda and an Itinerary for the sweeping inquiry, due
to start about mid-May.
Today's concluding session of the
rate-increase hearing was devoted
to final rebuttal argument by the
Cahadian National and Canadian
Pacific Railways, in reply to earlier
submissions by counsel representing
the seven Provinces opposed to rate
boosts.
F. C. S. Evans, Vice-President and
General Counsel of the C.P.R., closed the presentation for that company.

,C, E. Lister. '-.'•:
It Is hoped that a tag Ml again
be conducted by Nelson Girl Guides
The Nelson Cancer Unit, Presid-
'eriit H. Lupton said, was an organization of clubs. Practically all its
members had taken an interest in
its' cause through, representing a
City club in the first place, and so
'lis campaigns were deserving of
'the support of service clubs.
B Reporting on the Vancouver convention of the B.C. Cancer' Society,
Mr. Lupton said that rapid strides
in cancer control were being made
through the Society. It was actively
engaged in attending to borderline
cases, and was receiving the support of the Government.
LOUDER VOICE
.Attempts that were expected to
'tie successful had been made for
greater representation of Interior
cancer units on the Society's
governing board, andjttie units had

Parking Meters
TRAIL, B.C., April 8 - Parking
meters will not be installed < In

elation has its way.
Strong opposition to plana to In*
stall meters came from a mass.delegation of merchants waiting on .the
Council Monday night.
Leo Levey accused Council of
chasing -business away from Trail,
saying that the publlo in general
was against the proposed metering
D, R. Fralne suggested angle
lines to regulate single parking ahd
conserve space, erection of Signs
stating limit parking zones, before
parking meters were, resorted to.
The opinion that metering waa
unnecessary and that Council ahould
find better ways Ot increasing olty
revenue waa voiced by E. L. Strud-
Wioke. '...'..
The latter statement brought a
sharp answer itrom Traffic Committee Chairman Aid. Ian Somervllle. He said that 85 per cent of
cars parked on main streets belonged to merchants who were themselves driving away business, b]
blocking parking facilities.
Other views ip favor of meters
were that they would make tor
greater safety and keep transportation cars away from In front of
stores. .'        .v. fff'f.

CP.R. EARNINGS
AT 42-YEAR LOW
MONTREAL, April 6 (CP) - Net
railway earnings lower than any
year since 1905 were announced tonight by fhe Canadian Pacific Railway Company for 1948 "despite
■gross earnings which reached a new
high."
The anntiel report stated that
gross railway earnings, announced
January, were $356,249,702 In 1948,
an increase of $36,663,783 or a gain
of 11,6 per cent over the preceding
year. But working expenses of $336,
830,536—13.9 i per cent more than
1947—resulted ln a 1948 net Income
qf $18,419,166.
Reason for the decrease of $4,473,-
023 in the net, stated in the report
signed byl President W.' A. Mather
is "uncontrollable costs on the one
hand and rigidly regulated rates and
revenues on the other."       <  ,
Ratio of net to gross earnings was
the lowest ever recorded, 5.2 per
cent, compared with the previous
low of, 7.1 in 1946.
The report says that the benefit
expected from the 21 per cent
freight rate boost granted in 1948
"was more than offset by inrceased
pay rates and steadily rising costs
for materials and supplies."
Net income of the Company—all
Inclusive—after fixed charges was
$27,393,851 for the last year compared with $31,893,942 in 1947. After
preferred dividends, the balance
Was equivalent to $1.70 a share on
the cOmmon stock against $2.04 in
the preceding term. There are 13,-
400,000 shares of $25-par common
stock outstanding.

told the humane inspector . that
Butch' is not suffering, in fact is a
most lively fellow and doing quite
well without his head. Ross said he
had engaged a lawyer to see if
Butch's execution can be stayed.
Mrs. Green bought Butch at "a
poultry store, last Saturday and had
his head chopped off. But when sha
got home she found Butch still very
much alive. Scientists say the axe

Greenwood's Furs will be able to
cater to milady's every need in fur
garments, from remodelling, "repairing, rejuvenating up to the

on the premises. The famous
Hollander system of cleaning ana
rejuvenating will be used. Mr.
Greenwood states that all garments
will be manufactured on the

Kootenay products. The new firm
will be establishing agencies from
Lethbridge to Penticton. •"•
To Sing Messiah
Easier Music
St. Paul's senior choir, which last
Fall received a warm reception for
its presentation of the Christmas
section of the Messiah, is to render
the Easter music from the Oratorio
next Palm Sunday evening in St.
Paul's Church auditorium.
The choir has beeh practising for
the past three months. It is seldom
that a local performance of the
Messiah is given here and it is expected to be a unique feature In
Nelson's Easter celebrations.
The choir will open with the
chorus, "Behold the Lamb of God,"
Following will be, "Surely He Hath
Borne Our Griefs." Through the
despair and frustration represented
in such arias as "He Was Despised
and Rejected," the music passes to
the triumpft of, "I Know That My
Redeemer Liveth," and other
numbers.
The Hallelujah Chorus will be
sung by the choir at the conclusion.

Oust Bulgarian
Deputy Premier
SOFIA, April 8 (CP) - The Bui
garlan Communist Party Central
Committee last night announced the
ousting of Tralcho Kotstov as Deputy Premier and member of the Politburo, the No. 1 Communist party
group in the land.
Kotstov, a top-flight Bulgarian
Communist was accused of intrigue
and double-dealing to cause,trouble
with Soviet Russlta sind foment
trouble, also at home." ■  .   ■
He also was stripped of a third
post, Presidency of the Economic
and Financial Committee.
(The official Yugoslav News
Agency, Tan jug, in a broadcast,
heard in London said 800 state and
Communist party leaders have been
arrested in Bulgaria on spy charges,
and that Rostov is involved in the
case. Tanjug said he is under House
arrest.)   .
Since Kostov was active in trade
negotiations with Russia, it is possible that he incurred the Kremlin's
wrath by demanding more favorable
trade terms for his country than the
Russians were willing to grant
There has been no clue from behind the Iron Curtain as to the story
behind his troubles, and observers
can only conjecture. They know,
however, that Yugoslavia—one of
Bulgaria's neighbors—has charged
for months that the Russians exploit
other Communist countries which
fall Into their orbit

PREFERS JAIL
HALIFAX (CP) - Seventy-year-
old Angus is back peeling spuds in
Rockhead Prison. ,
For Angus, that's nothing new. A
lover of the Bible and history books
he started his treks to city prison
nearly 50 years ago. ■■..>.
Prison officials estimate Angus'
convictions at 100. At the outset he
was in every few years.but now
he's out only about two weeks in 52,
Liquor, admits Angus, is the cause
of his downfall. His record is a long
line of convictions for drunkenness,
panhandling and vagrancy. But he
prefers being in jail to anywhere
else.
Says Prison Governor John Grant:
"Angus is a model prisoner—a darn
good fellow who just can't stay
away from liquor when he's out
'I've never heard him swear. He
keeps immaculately clean and he is
so well educated."
Angus' present term Is six months
for vagrancy. It's up April 80.
"Then," said Governor Grant, "Ke'll
be out for two weeks vacation,
which Is the usual case, and he'll be
back again.

The role of exercise is difficult

are glands and hot muscle. It makes
it clearer to think of the breasts as
being attached to and supported by
powerful, fan-shaped muscles, the

There is a disorder Occurring, in
children which develops most often
during the second half of the first
year, and almost alwayfc In. children
under 2 years of age.
This condition, called, acrodynia,
begins gradually, with irestlessness,
nervousness, sleeplessness, ahd loss
of appetite. The hands and leet become a deep glhk color or slightly
swollen,- moist and tender, and often
there is scaling of the palms and
soles. A generalized rash, made up
of pimples which have: a dusty red
color, develops over the trunk and
other parts ot the body. The patients sweat a great deal, even in
chilly weather, The muscles become
weakened. There ls fear ot light,
and tiie child usually keeps his head
buried in his pillow. The, gums, are
swojlen, and the teeth frequently
become loose and fall out. Rapid
heartbeat and Increased blood pressure are always present.
AVOID MERCURY
Recently, It has been noted that
some babies with acrodynia had
been given some form ot mercuric
preparation. Two babies had received some powder containing calomel.  :
It has been found that a substance
known as dlmercaprol, commonly
called Bal, has been useful ln the
treatment of mercury poisoning;
hence these babies were treated
with Bal.
After about six days of treatment, the babies showed remarkable improvement. The hands and
feet became a normal color, the fear
of light was gradually lessened, and
the rash faded. Sweating was' no
longer excessive. The babies' appetites improved and there was improvement ln the condition of the
muscles.
It is not likely that the ingestion
of mercury is responsible for all
cases of acrodynia. However, It
would appear likely that In a number of instances the mercury Is responsible. Of course, in these cases,
Bal brings prompt Improvement.

QUEBEC, April 5 (CP)—Quebec
farmers, talcing a 100-hour week in
their stride, are busy converting the
sap flow of 20,000,000 maple trees
into a stream of dollars,
Quebec, the country's top maple
sugar and syrup producer, over the
years has built up a $6,000,000-
$10,000,000: annual business from its
groves of Rocc and Red Maple.
Last year their yield was close
to $7,000,000, and this year's week-
old season favored - by good sugar
weather has good chances of exceeding that mark.
• In. the last few years, the maple
season has been: converted from
haphazard fun-time into business
time for a serious commercial enterprise in which Quebec has about
70 per cent of the Canadian share.
Week-end sugar parties still are
held but In most cases now, except
on family property, the excursions
cost-at least $2,50 a head for the
last snowball fight of the Winter,
and a stomachful of sticky taffy
•nd soft warm sugar.
Most o' the oldtlme. farm lamily
migrations .from homesteads to the
maple groves, the bonfires and gurgling,boilers, are a thing of the past,
except in remote parts.
Now, 5,000,000 new aluminum
buckets hang from the 20,000,000
trees. These big buckets and new
aluminum spouts that don't lose a
drop of sap and guarantee purity
are being spread through the groves
at a rate of about 2,000,000 a year.

IN SPOKANE JAIL
SPOKANE, Wash., April 5 (API-
Representative Compton I. White,
(D-Idaho) said today he was "slam-
ed against Ihe wall" and otherwise
mistreated by Spokane police last
week.s        '
The 71-year-old veteran of seven
terms in. Congress; was convicted
Saturday of a disorderly conduct
charge.'He was fined $100.
White gave his version of his arrest and imprisonment for the first
time in a six-page statement dictated to a reporter.
1 wouldn't treat a dog the way
the police treated me," he said.
The white-haired Idahoan contended his arrest was illegal. He
claimed Congressional immunity
from arrest on a traffic violation.
An argument over a traffic ticket
led to the disorderly conduct charge.
"God help America when the safe,
guard of Congress (Congressional
immunity) established by.the Con
stltution is torn down," he said,
He is preparing an article on "A
night- in the Spokane jail" for publication in the Congressional record.

A Little Painting Is     ,
A Dangerous Thih^
Simultaneously with the arrival of
the Spring season in Kootenay-Boundary comes House Cleaning seasons
This is the time of year when a man
may leave a comfortable, systematic
homeln the morning and coirte home in
the evening to a house barren of curtains, rugs, and even the smallest
amenities of life. He is expected to sit
upon an apple box at the kitchen table
and eat beans with good grace. The,
fact that his spouse is "house cleaning"
is considered sufficient cause for a hus-
.barid to be treated with the same cordiality as an uninvited mother-in-law,
for anywhere from two days to two
weekss
At the end of the house cleaning
period—some consider it in the same.
light as a quarantine for measles—the ,
house emerges bright and clean, like a
moth out of a cocoon. New curtains
flutter at shining windows, walls look
several shades lighter, and woodwork
often sports quite frivolous shades of.
paint. '
At this point husbands agree that'it
was almost worth the inconvenience,'
.wives wear a beam of satisfaction, and ;
life settles down to normal for another
year. ,
,'Shottld the xnm of the house be en-*
listed to do a "little painting" himself,'-,
matters are further complicated.
Re .painting, here are s. low tips to't
help him survive the scourge ni' ilie'
house cleaning season.      '
A paint usually consists of several,
substances to give it the required properties of color, flow §nd durability.
Some of these substances may be' pois-,
onous'when inhaled or swallowed in
toxic amounts. Among the pigments,*
• which are used to k"'vo color snd opac-.
' ity to iwini, red lead,-whito.lea'dvard ,
the' chromates oi  lead  and''zinc-are-
among th? cjiemirnl miV> I,mm, hr.viPf;
'a -toxic action on the bnsly. Pairsts . niv *
taining these pigments, mui i be n led
with care to yviiid iniul.'itinn or ingestion. Today, non toxic.pigmenls.arc feV
ing increasingly substituted fur harm;
ful oncv '       .    ,   ,'
Many, paints contain ari extender "or"
filler;,,'wludi, is used to "increase" .the '
bulk ami  improve  the-quality  of-, a"1*
paint. Among Hip substances employed
as fillers are silex (ground quartz)', di--;
' atomite, tripoli, asbestos, fate, and siliceous dnltionte. Whfrt present"as dust
in the air, these materials-may'be'-in'-'
haled m excessive amounts, and jam-'
age the lung tissues.
Solvents are added'to paint tn assist,
in  drying  and  to  regulate  fluidity."
Some solvents used for this purpose are '*
toxic, such as glycol  ethers, methyl ,
compounds and xylol, tuluol and benzol. Benzol in particul n  is i   Ir, ,-n lv
toxic, and.its use should be avoided* if,'
at all possible.  •->''■•-    „•,-.',.•
When paint is brushed on a surface
the   danger    of ' inhaling    excessive
amounts of solvent vapor is usually
small. The slowness .of. the process and-*
high viscosity of the paint normally. *;
result in a safe rafe of evaporation.
However, brush application of paints
may be hazardous when performed ta'
- a confined space. In this circumstance
a-concentration of solvent vapor may
be reached which is- injurious to health..
A small portable blower or other
suitable means of supplying fresh air
to the space could be employed. When
, a toxic, Volatile subst,ance is used in a
confined space $n approved type of rejs-;
pjrator should be Worn by the operator.
The danger of ingesting toxicqutui-
titles of poisonous pigments is another
hazard of brush painting, and can be
avoided by proper personal hygiene.'
Instances of,painters consuming toxic
amounts of lead from their hands and
clothes have occurred as a result of
carelessness and neglect 'in washing
and eating habits.
In roll coating .{md dipping, the
, paint is usually more volatile and applied more quickly. Solvent vapprs are
therefore evolved more rapidly and
general ventilation must ensure that
sufficient air is provided to dilute the
vapors to a safe level, The quantity1 of
air required for this purpose will vary'
with the toxicity of the volatile s.ubr
stance and the amount of paint being
used.
Dermatitis from paints may occur
in all handling. operations, including
manufacture and application. Souie
paint components act as general'irri-
tarits, and will cause dermatitis upon
sufficient contact with ,them.   Other
* materials will produce symptoms only
in individuals sensitive to them. With
suitable controls, including proper pergonal hygiene, adequate ventilation'
"and protective ointpients when necessary, dermatitis among painters aijd
paint makers can be avoided.
If a husband has pointed put to his
Wife these-many and .varied hazards of
painting and she still remains adamant,
, there is little left for him to do but to
open wide the windows and go to work.
'   ' Just* one more thing, men. Never
;'.'. use a rickety stepladder. That is probably the greatest painting hazard of all.

"Reader", Kaslo—We have to thank two read-
era who bave been kind enough to write
' regarding the quotation about which you
inquired,, lioth claiming to kpow the author's name, and tine enclosing a Coronet
cover on which it was printed. Mrs, M. H.,
Nelson, states it Is by "Btienne de Orelle";
Mr. Q. W, Nelson, sends the Coronet cover
to show it was attributed td "Stephen
Grellett". -j
, We are indebted to our re.aders, but must
stick to our funs, and produce the following
proof: John o* London, the late Wilfred Whit-
ten, long Editor of John o1 London'! Weekly,
says in his book, "Is It Qood English": "The
author-is unknown, yet a great many people
are prepared to state confidently who wrote It.
Unfortunately, their attributions cancel' each
Other. What has long been sought, but not yet
found, is proof of the authorship by the discovery of the original writings of the author
to whom it is attributed." In Bartlett's Original
Quotations, enlarged edition, edited, by Christopher Morley, there is a footnote; "The saying
persistently attributed to him (Etlenne Grel-
let) Is not found ln bis existing writings." To
return to John o'. London: Mr. Whitten said,
"The quotation will be found ln the writings
of Marcus Aurelius, William Penh, Stephen
Grellet, Professor Henry Drummond, -Robert
Louis Stevenson, on an early fifteenth Century
sampler," and he went on to give 10 other
names. "But no one," he added, "has run it to
earth." Further proof of doubt ls provided by
the fact that the word "attributed" is always
placed before Grellet's signature when it is
attributed to him.

Office Move
To Montreal
OTTAWA, April S (CP)-Mwl-
toba today protested to the Commons Railway Committee against
the proposal of Trans-Canada Air
Lines to move Its head offices from
Winnipeg to Montreal.   '
Headed by Premier Campbell of
Manitoba, Mayor Garnet Coulter of
Winnipeg and Mayor Gebrge McLean of St. Boniface, the group represented more than 20 Government, labor, business and other
groups of the Winnipeg district.
The group said the T. C. A. move
would be a serious blow to' the
economy of the Province, was inadvisable from the point of view of
geography,'  defence,   and   would
"further accentuate concentration of
Industry, population and payrolls iri
the East, to the retirement ot thi
West and to the detriment of the
country as a whole."
The brief cited Ihese main points:
1, Winnipeg, at the geographical centre of the continent, was
the logical point for an air line
headquarters. Various  U. - 8. air
lines had their headquarters In
slntlllar locations.
2. The "centre of gravity" of air
travel had not, as T. C. A, officials
argued, shifted to Montreal, since
Winnipeg was still the centre of
nearly 2H times the Canadian revenue-producing business compared
with the Eastern area.
3. 'Winnipeg climatic conditions
were more faycrable for testing of
aircraft '.
4. Availability of labor! lower
labor costs and, a lower cost of living made Winnipeg a more suitable
location. New offices In downtown
Montreal would be expensive..
1 5. The Winnipeg location was
more desirable from a defence

Rinty Monaghan tonight success-

boxing championship by decisively
defeating France's Maurice Sandeyron in a 15-round title fight.
A capacity crowd of 10,900 Jammed King's Hall to see Monaghan's
first title defence in his native city.
The crooning Irishman appeared
to have won every round but the
fourth and 13th.
Monaghan, who weighed 110 to
Sandeyron's 110%, dictated the pace
throughout the fight. His fast, snak-
ing lefts, often followed by snappy-
right crosses kept the Frenchman
off balance.

Higher Than Ever
Although senior hockey crowds
fell off In Nelson this season, revenue was higher than it has ever
been. •'.'■".■'
This was because of admission ins-
creases, - which helped offset rises
in the cost of operating.the Nelson
Senior Hockey Club.      ■       J
Total attendance at Western International Hockey League games
was 28,066, exactly six persons less
than last year, but a drop of about
2000. from attendance.In the 1046-47
season. This takes into account the
fact that there were 18 league games
Instead of 16 in the past two years.
Average, attendance was. 1859,
compared with 1755 last .season and
1894 tvyo Seasons ago. ■
Including the league playoff and
two games between Trail Smoke
Eaters and Regina Capitals last
week, paid admissions numbered
39,390.
Revenue from leasgue games alone
was $21,903. This was bolstered to
some extent by the fact that there
were 'three playoff games instead
of one last year.
The gate over the entire senior
hockey season, with the Trail-Re-
gina games, was $33,482,75.
This was also the longest Ice season the Civic Centre sheet having

The two met as their teams played sin exhibition game at El Paso.

defending champions, Toronto defeated Red Wlngi tout straight
In the final last year.
Going  the'long  way  round  to
eliminate Montreal-in a first-round
playoff series that Went the full
distance of Seven games and lasted
two weeks, Detroit finally settled
the issue in  this  climactic game
with two easy second-period goals
6%,minutes apart ','; '.,
Defenceman Leo Reise swept in
a 40-foot backhand shot that cracked
a 1-1 tie and Gerry1 (Doc) Couture
cemented the vital Detroit victory
by popping in a rebounder.
It was the fourth straight-game
decided by a 3-1 score. -   ,

15 PENALTIES
Tonight's decisive struggle was
marked by 15 penalties eight of
them against Montreal, and somebody was in the penalty.box when
every goal was scored.
Floyd Curry of Montreal and Red
Kelly of the Red Wings were there
together when Gordon Howe popped in the first one for Detroit in
the fourth minute of play, It was
the eighth goal of the scries for the
sturdy Red Wing right winger.
Again one player from each club
was serving time when Glen Harmon tied it up for Montreal early
in the second period.
It took Detroit less than six
minutes to gain the lead on Relie's
surprising backhand looper. His
own.team was a man short at
the time and big Leo's shot caught
everybody .by surprise Including
goalie Bill Durnan.
When Couture slapped in hla simple rebound for Detroit's third goal
a minute before the second period
ended Montreal had defenceman
Emile (Butch) [Bouchard in the penalty box, on a holding penalty.
Ken Mosdell muffed a breakaway
attempt right after that when Detroit goalie Harry Lumley blocked
his shot deadly.
With. 58 seconds left Coach Dick
Irvin yanked Durnan from the nets
in a last desperate move. Durnan
sat on the bench until the final horn
as Glen Harmon dropped back to
block one Red Wing shot and another by Gordon Howe from centre
Ice, sailed wide. ',

Since the Regina Caps were playing the Trail Smoke Eaters on Nelson ice Saturday, I didn't travel'with
the Nelson Maple Leafs on their
trip to Creston for an exhibition
game against the Kimberley Dynamiters, which the Leafs won 10-9.
Instead of me giving you something
of the trip, I got Walt Wait, who
coached the Leafs to their triumph,
to supply the story, so here's what
Walt had to. say:
Creston had its first taste of senior hockey Saturday night when
the Nelson Maple Leafs and the
Kimberley Dynamiters staged an
exhibition game there in the new
rink. The game climaxed a week
in which Creston staged a curling
bonspiel, and bowling tournament
and definitely announced it will be
a factor in the Kootenay sport world.
The Leafs and Dynamiters really
dished out a nice game; fast, clean,
and with beautiful passing plays.
And If it was scoring the fans wanted to see they had a full night of
that too, for when the smoke cleared away the score was 10-9 for the
Leafs with Sam Brown and Lloyd
Sanderson, the two referees, played
to a standstill.
With Ice now definitely assured,
those in the know at Creston state
they are looking forward to some
Senior B hockey, and wills definitely
promote kid hockey to the full. Incidentally, Creston was very lucky
ln its curling and hockey for the
artificial ice plant had a breakdown
Sunday and the ice was a pool of
water. Had it occurred Saturday it
would have played havoc with both
curling and hockey. Caretaker
George Holmes wore an inscrutable
smile, the season was over even if
he did have to fix the machine.
To put over a week of sport such
as Creston did involves an infinite
amount of detail work. Most of it
was shouldered by Don Archibald,
Fred Martello, Walter Marchbank,
S. Salvador, Dr. Fraser Alf Farstad
and Russ Joyce,, but there were
many more who' contributed time
and effort, Martello's interest in
sport is just as keen as when he
was one of the foremost contenders
in the field and track events in the
Kootenays, , .
Creston has a $70,000 project ln
the Creston Valley Civic Centre,
and although lt is not fully paid up
yet, with the enterprise the valley
residents, are showing the. debt burden against it should not rest too
heavily on their minds. The centre
is a great credit to them and will
provide many solid hours of recreation for young and old.
Speaking for the Nelson Club, tha
Leafs had the time of their lives at
Creston- and were loud in their
praises of the hospitality there. In
fact, It is a rather good thing Creston isn't after senior players or we
might have lost four or five to them.

REGINA,' April 6 (CP)—Regina
Caps moved within one: game of
the Western Canada senior
hockey final tonight when defeating . Trail) ' Smoke Eaters 8-4,
their third win In as many starts
In the clubs' current best-of-
seven seml-flnal series.
Sixty-two-hundred fans packed
the Regina Stadium for the match,
.the 15th consecutive game Capt
have   played  without  a  defeat.
.Next game In the series It scheduled for Thursday. Ultimate
winner Will meet either Winnipeg Nationals or Fort Franoet
Canadian! for the Wettern title
and the right to enter the Allan
Cup final;
Ih tonight's' game i Regina took
a 4-2 lead in the first period; split
goals in the second for a 5-3 count,
and moved ahead to the tune of
three goals in the third while holding the British Columbia champions
to a single point
It was the highest scoring game
of the series, Caps having won the
first two on Nelson, B.C., ice 2-1
and''4-2.   ■'.- i
Gus Kyle and Toby Brown shared
scoring honors with two goals
apiece, half of Regina's total.
Singles went to Joe Fisher, Lou
Hauck, Bill Kyle and Ab McDougall. McDougall, BUI Kyle, Hauck
and \Vid Myles also were active in
the playmaker department with
two assists each.
Trail marksmen were Mike
Buckna, Lou Secco, Terry Cavanaugh and Ab Cronie.
It waa a game with few penalties,
Smoke Eaters being tagged for
four minors, Caps for a minor and
10-mlnute misconduct, The latter
went to Fisher at the start of the
second period when he argued with
Referee Vic Llndquist, objecting tO
being tripped with no pmalty
awarded at the close of the first
period,
There was only one change in
the lineups when the two teams
took the Ice, Red Tllson being back
in Regina uniform, replacing Dutch
Van Deelan.
Caps were determined to win
from the start, with Fisher starting the' ball rolling at the five-
minute mark when he picked a
neat corrier after closing in on
Duke Scodellaro in Smoke Eaters
nets with two Smokies practically
■draped on him. Gus Kyle got. his
first counter of the night lesss than
five minutes later on a checkerboard relay from Harvey Barnes
and Toby Brown witfiln" Trail's
blueline.
VETERAN  BUCKNA SCORES
Trail then entered the picture
with Buckna, veteran of 15 years
in senior hockey ranks, snaring an
inside-the-blueline pssass from Frank
Turik' to beat Bev Bentley. Goals
by .HaucK and Gus Kyle more than
nullified his effort, but Dave Nicol
did his best to recover when stealing the puck frdm Sweeney
Schriner behind the Regina blue-
line and passing to Cavanaugh who
had Bentley at his mercy.
Fisher's misconduct came at the
start of the second but there was
no scoring until the 17:45 mark
When Brown touched in the rubber
caught in Scodellaro's pads after
Tilson.had fired at the Trail goalie.
Vic Myles set. lip,the play.
Secco equalled this effort, scoring for Smokies on a face-oft pass
from Turik.
In the third Trail took advantage
of a listless McDougall-Kyle-Hauck
line, with Don Anderson carrying
the puck through the defence and
Cronie backhandjng the pass in for
Trail's fourth and last goal of the
night
That goal started a scoring
splurge by Regina, Brown rapping
in the first—his second of the
night, then McDougall making the
count 7-4, and finally, with 34 seconds remaining, Bill Kyle picking
up a loose puck which he batted
past Scodellaro.
