Dominion Stores Limited. the first of the food chains to be re- viewed, started in 1919 with two stores and at the end of 1033 had 505, 107 in Montreal alone and 0'1 in Toronto. The original invested capital was $20,000 but this increas- ed. year by year. until 1933 when it stood at S4.f9’1,i52.

LONDON, Nov. 14.—Dnvid Niels- ner, former Cincinnati bookmaker, was committed today to stand trial on s. charge of having taken part in the kidnapping last August of John S. Labatt, lame and wealthy London brewer.

of Metropolitan employees were on a part-time basis, earning a mere pittance weekly, less than $4.50 and unable to take another job because they were on call at all hours. Evidence was produced to show the United Chain, operating 14

more than two hours in his first public recital of his story of the kid- napping. The brewer pointed an ac- cusing finger at Meisner ns he stood in the prisoners dock and declared he was one of the kidnappers. Meisner shook his head vigorously and mumbled, but he declined to speak at the end of the hearing when Magistrate Hawkshaw asked him if he had anything to say.

wozking 62 1-2 hours. Taking the organization as a whole, 15 full- time men were paid $7.34 each a week and 100 women, $0.10. Scat- tered examples were given of wo- men working for $6.28 a week and part-time help getting 90 cents over a week. A girl in Joliette, Que. tlve years with the company, was paid 84.50 weekly.

The United Stores paid salcagirla in its Ottawa store higher wages than in Quebec stores. Tbs average for 1a salesgirls in Ottawa for one week was $10.77 and in Qeubec City, $623. (The Quebec minimum wage law at that time did not extend to girls working in stores but the On- tario Aot did. The Quebec Act war extended last May).

Many examples of low wages paid by the Metropolitan 01 anizatlon were disclosed to the Commission. when it was shown that 7b percent of Metropolitan employees were on a part-time basis, Hon. H. H. Btev- ens said this worked a hardship on retailers who paid their stafls full time "and does a great injustice to the employees." He said this might be an attempt to evade minimum wage laws,

Labatt told the court three men of whom Meisner was one had seized him on a lonely Lambton County road as he was driving from his summer home near Sarnia to a meeting in London, Aug. 14. He cap- tured him at pistol-point, he said, stuck court plaster over his eyes in an inefficient attempt to render him temporarily sightless and took him to a cottage on Lake Muskoka.

In his long recital of events from the time he was captured to the morning, almost 60 hours later, when he was released in Toronto Labatt described his treatment at the hands of a guard he declared was Meisner and a. conversation between Meisner
