MONTREAL, Juno Id-Telophoned advices reaching hora from Brock- vllle, Ont., at 8.10 tonight stated that 31 men were missing, after a roll call of the survivors oi‘ the crow of the drill boat J. B. King. It wasbellev- ed, however, that some of these miss- ing had been picked up by rescue boats and had not been reported. ‘

R. A. McNeill, day foreman, was among these rescued by the United States coast guard boat No. 211. "There Twas no warning", said Mc- Nelll, "the bottom just seemed to drop out of everything, a number of night shift men were sleeping in their bunks and most of them were killed."

The J. B. King was one of the largest drill boats ln Canada and had seen previous service ln Halifax har- bor and the Welland Canal develop- ment. At the time lightning set off her store of dynamite this afternoon. she was working near Cockburn Is- land. a little over two miles wrest of Brockville, almost opposite the sum- merpcolony on the Island. Residents along the shore saw the lightning break over the boat, then a puﬂ of black smoke and the boat had dis- appeared. It was nearly an hour lat- er before the alarm reached Brock- ville.

Mr. Bennett had sharp strictures for tho remarks of Premier King in Nova. Scotia. on old age pensions. We say, he exclaimed, that if the Feder- al Government could provide one half the cost for old age pensions it can provide the other half without wrecking the constitution. I may further say that this is no deathbed repentance as the Liberals had on the tariff, but at the Winnipeg con- vention in i927 we expressed our con- viction on this matter. The Prime Minister, he went on, had advocated a conference ivhlch in one of the provinces which could not very well afford to enter the present scheme._ “His conferences," Mr. Bennett dc- clared. fare so many that they are
