Child Psychiatry

A discussion of treatment in Child Psychiatry was conducted during the morning session by Dr. F. . Dunsworth, Halifax; Dr. W. A. awke,Toronio; Dr. E.J. Rosen, Toronto, and Mr. A. J. Crook, soc- ial worker at the Dalhousie Clinic in Halifax.

The panel also agreed best re- sults could be obtained in assist- ms the parents to make the neces- sary adjustments to solve problems in the home which led to child behaviour problems rather than have the psychiatrist advise the parents directly on the course to be taken.

The sessions were highlighted by the delivery of the Osler Memor- ial oratlon by Dr. George W. Thorn. Boston. on the subject: ”Cortisone Ind Acth-Their Cur- rent Application to Medical Prob- items."

Airmen Tell 0f Mysterious Object

HAMILTON ' FIELD, Calif.. June 21-(AP)-Three airmen told to- dly Of Sighting a mysterious flying object over their base, travelling "at it great. rate of speed." and spraying a blue-green flame.

It was first sighted at 1:35 a.m.. they told reporters. and they saw it repeatedly. But because of the speed Ind the darkness. they couidn't.discern its shape.

All agreed it was not I jet plane. at least not a conventional jet plane. I

The first report on the flying object said the men described it Is "disk-shaped." At I press con- ference they said they couldn't discern its shape.

In "flying saucer" reports which were common some months ago, the air force said an analysis in- dicated that tha reports arose from misinterpretation of conventional objects, mass hysteria or were due to lioaxa.

Cpl. Garland Pryor, 20, told rc- porters that he was the first to ace the "lntcrloper" in the sky.

Pryor was in the field control tower. He called it to the atten- tion of Staff Sgt. Ellis Lorimer, 25. who said he then saw the craft make three separate passes across the field.

The observers said they heard no sound. Lorimer said the ex- haust or "fall" of the craft "re- sembled thc flame of I blow torch."

The men agreed that the craft came first from the direction of the nearby Pacific Ocean, and on the last pass over the field, dis- appeared toward the sea.

Gives Views After Probe .

OTTAWA. Juna 21-(CP)-The Senate's finance committee today expressed concern at the growth of the Civil Service and advocat- ed a new step to check further expansion.

The committee's report said the jump from 46,000 Federal cm- ployees ln 1939 to 127.000 today "is is matter for concern."

It recommended that the Fin- ance Department. through the Treasury Board. "be given more direct authority in dealing with expansion of Government services in each department and that no new service be undertaken in any department without recorded ap- prOVfll of treasury board."

The report, tabled by chairman

Senator T. A. Crerar (L-Manl- tobal. also said: 1. The "storm signals are

flying" in an important field of the nation's business be- cause all three levels of gov- ernment-Federal. Provincial and Municipal-are once again trending away from debt re- ducflon and heading in the other direction.

2. It is concerned about the "increase in Government pub- lications" and recommends that the system of free mall distribution for them should be halted. Free postage tend- ed to encourage growth in output of publications.

3. It ii; concerned, too. over growth of capital spending by all three levels of govern- ment and feels Parliament should get a clearer picture

of just; how much is being spent federally for capital works.

would Clarify Picture

The committee urged I number of alterations in the annual esti- mates. To clarify the Federal pic- lure in relation to the over-all national picture. revenues and ex- penditures by all three levels of government should be appended and compared with the base year 1939. To these should be added figures on the net: national in- come, the cost-of-living and other factors to put the Whole economy in perspective.

In discussing the trend nwiiy from government debt-reduction. the committee felt it "lg very im- portant that everyone have a clear understanding of the relationship of taxation to net national in- come."

"Tints if an increase in total expenditures by all governments is kept in step with an increase in national income the weight of taxation relatively is not increas- ed. . . but if expenditures increase at a more rapid rate than na- tional income an increasing bur- den of taxation must be impos- ed. . .

OTTAWA. June 21- (Special)- Prime Minister St. Laurent. his cabinet and members of all parties of the House of Commons were guests this afternoon at a recep- tion tendered by delegates from the four Atlantic Provinces now in Ottawa to press for construc- tion of the Chigneeto Canal.

Formal demand for Federal act- ion on this historic project will be made tomorrow afternoon when the delegates from Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia. New Bruns- wick and Newfoundland will wait on the Prime Minister with their brief.

Prince Edward Island delegates Horace B. Willis of Charlottetown and Leslie Simmons of Summer- side failed to make plane connec- tions with the other delegates, but arrived later in the evening. The island Province, however, was re- presented at the reception by N. R. llatten.bury,a member of the Saint John delegation whose father. the late N. R. Rattenbury of Char- lotiietown. was one of the most enthusiastic sponsors of the Chig- necto Canal project more than 20 years ago.

Advantages To P. E.'l.

With the canal completed, Charlottetown. he said. would be one of the principal ports of call of new steamer routes which would be ii further link be- tween the Maritime: and Central Canada. Benefit to the Island's export traffic of the canal would be immense.

In addition. delegates said. Prince Edward Island's imports from the United States and Cent- ral Canada would be greatly low- ered in price with the proposed canal in operation.

The Island was represented at the reception by J. Watson Mac- Naught, Liberal member for Prince and W. Chester S. McLure. Pro- gressive Conservative member for Queen's.

Delegates on their arrival today were armed with a telegram from Premier J. Walter Jones which reads: '

Believe Van Trapped In Swamp Area

LANGTON. 0nt.. June 21-(CP) -Two men were slain in a flurry of bullets today by a bank ban- dit who abandoned his 523.000 loot after killing his pui-Iuers.

The killer is believed trapped tonight in is small patch of bushy swampland by squads of armed Provincial Police and volunteers.

Directed by two circling alr- criift. and walklc-talkles. the police threw a cordon around the swamp some 10 miles southwest of this community. Langton is 30 miles east of St. Thomas.

The killer, described as about w, dark. of medium height, and wearing a pith helmet and dark glasses, killcd Arthur de Llerman. 31. and William Goddyn. 24. as they pursued him following the robbery of the Langton branch of: lilo Imperial Bank of Canada. I

Earlier police said they believed ,

two men staged the hold-up.

Loot Recovered

Most of the bank loot. estimated by police at 523.000. was recovered in a suitcase in the killer's ah- andoncd escape car.

De Llerman. a real estate in- surance salesman. who ran a to- bacco farm near Courtland, and Goddyn. a sharegrower on the farm. were customers in the bank at the time of the robbery.

Armed with an old service rifle they followed the bandit at break- neck lspeed over 10 miles of sandy hnek road before the escape car plunged off the road and into it ditch.

As they approached it they were met by a fusillade of nine milli- meter slugs.

Both were dead arrived.

The windshield of 'le Lierman's car was riddled by 12 bullet holes. There were 10 others in the hood.

Heads Into Swamp

. Tim. bandit than...apparently headed south into the nearby swam-p, abandoning his car. the holdup loot. and a revolver.

Police said he is still armed.

Police said the bandits car was stolen in Windsor a short time before the holdup.

Within the space of I few hours. 25 squad cars were on the scene nnd more than 30 heavily-armed Prnv'int'lnl Police had surround- ed the swamp.

Passes Organized

Two aircraft were summoned. and police organized posses of nelgliborlm: residents. nrmed with shotguns. for the search to fol- low. The area surrounded is on the farm of Lcwle Nagy. It is about six miles north of Lake Erie.

The bandit. brandishing two guns held the six-man bank staff and a number of customers at bay While he forced senior members to open the safe. He ran. drop- ping a number of bundles of bills. to his wailing car.

At first police estimated the loot at between 53.000 and S15,000. After finding the abandoned car they revised the figure to 523.000.

Police at first believed the rub- bery wns committed by two men. They later revised this to one.

The name bank was robbed of 334.000 on Sept. 12. 1945 by three

armed and masked men whoi scooped money from the teller'si, cane and forced manager James:

Brmvley to open the vault. They ran out to a waiting car, driven by an accomplice.
