Cadet Training Touches Off Fight In Winnipeg

WINMPDG. April 19 -(OP) - rwn groups drew battle lines today over the question of cadet training in Winnipeg schools.

The Manitoba and Lake superior Branch of the Canadian In entry A l ” touched off- the fight with a. charge recently that pro- Ccmsnuntsts. by their vocal oppos- ition. had stifled cadet training in Winnipeg and other Manitoba schools. .

Last night the controversy flared at . school board meeting at which Mrs. Margaret Chunn. Roland Pennor and W. G. Doneleyko spoke against any further extens- ion of cadet training. new on a voluntary basis in 0 Winnipeg schools.

Mrs. Chunn, representing -several groups. said: "We don't want our children to be given any military training through our educational system. It would teach children a philosophy of hate."

Mr. Penner said he represented the Winnllwl Council, National Federation of Labor Youth.

Mr. Doneleytto is president of the Manitoba Tosca council. A former member of the Legislature, he was expelled from the O. C. F. party for opposition to the Atlantic Pact.

Board chairman Campbell 1-islg said the school trustees would "study" the requests by the three opposltiorrlsts.

Meanwhile. it seemed certain that the issue would not be al- lowed to die. Trustee Stan Lalng said he would bring down the fol- lowing motion:

"That the board fully endorses the establishment of cadet corps in junior and senior high schools on a voluntary basis and will do everything possible in co-operation with the Department of National defence to support and encourage their operation." '

To Change Dale Next Year For lobsler Season

OTTAWA. April 19 -- (special) - Changes in the opening date of the lobster-fishing season in the Marltimes will be put into effect for 1961. The Guardian learned here today. To avoid inconven- iences occasioned by the season opening on a Sunday or Monday when May 1 falls on those days. an attempt will be made to fix the Ollening date on the same day of the week each year.

No change will be made this year, and the lobster season will open May 1 as usual.

The question was brought up in the House of Commons earlier this week by W. Chester S. Mclsurc. Progressive conservative member for Queen's who asked if Fisheries Minister Mayhew would permit opening of the season on April 29 instead of May 1. suggestion of the change of date from Monday to Saturday had,been made by the Prince Edward. island Fisheries Federation.

Investigation of a possible change of data revealed that such an al- teration could only be made ny order-in-council and could he ef- fective only after the order-uh council was published in the Can- ada Gazette and publicly announ- ced to those concerned. Passage

FREDERICTON. April 19-(GP) -The four per cent retail sales tax planned for New Brunswick may sometime be collected by an indirect method. Premier McNair hinted today in ending the budget debate in the legislature.

indicating the Government's in-

leglslatlon which-has received first reading. Mr. McNair said that un- der present constitutional law the tax must be collected from the final purchaser oi goods.

However, he added, it would be surprising if constitutional amend- ments. permitting indirect collect- ion. were not agreed upon at the forthcoming autumn Dominion- Provincial conference. If these were made. the Province would be in a position to change its legis- lation and "get away from an- noying features" involved in col- lection oi the tax.

Other planes attacked Lulchow peninsula. base for the Red oper- ation 10 miles to the north across Hninan Strait.

Warships offshore joined with ground forces inland In a ceaseless shelling of the beach-heads.

There were wholly unconfirmed reports that the Reds. who were from 7.000 to 8.000 strong when they landed Monday, had widened the beachhead to 18 miles. These rumors said at some points the Communists had driven five miles lnlnnd.

The Nationalist navy headquart- er: insisted that its warships Tues- day broke up an attempt by more than 130 Communist craft to land subslnntlal reinforcements on the northern beaches of 1-iainan.

Headquarters said a total of 90 of tliewinafg were -sunk or set ablaze and the remainder scurried away.

Preag dispatches allo claimed the Nationalists smashed an at- tempt by long-established Red guerrillas in Halnan's Interior to Join up with the beach-heads. The accounts said more than 400 guer- rillas were killed.

About noon he suffered a heart attack which did not, at; the time, seem serious but he gradually grew weaker and passed away in his sleep about 8.30 p.m.

Holman. he began at the bottom of the ladder. sweep- ing the floors and cleaning the numerous lamps in the then large store.

In a decision "of the five-man board announced by its secretary. Dr. John S. Whreler, the board said "no application for reinstate- ment by Dr. sander will be enter- tained prior to June 19. 1930."

The candle county physician has not been allowed to practise since he was charged with first- degree murder in the death of his cancer patient. 59-year-old Mrs. Abbie C. Borrow of Manchester. He was acquitted after a trial last- ing nearly three weeks.

The state charged the 41-year- old physician with killing Mrs Borroto by four injections of air into her veins.

In a prepared statement. the board said its action was unanim- ous. It had notified Dr. sender of its decision. which was reached

after a six-hour session of the board today. "Dr f contends." the board

"If they (the railroads) feel some progress is being made to- ward settlement. the strike may be postponed."

He said that the union would set up picket lines and that the strike might spread later to other lines.

--we do not believe members of other unions will cross our picket lines."

The strike was called against the following roads:

The Pennsylvania system west of Harrisburg; New York Central west of Buffalo: Michigan Central west of Detroit River; the 0.0.0. and st. Louis (big four); the Ohio Central Linea; Santa re (proper); santa Fe (coast lines); the South- ern Rallway System.

(The strike will not affect the New York Central line which runs through Westem Ontario between Buffalo and Detroit This is con- trolled by the Michigan Central. and the strike. is only effective on that line west of the Detroit Riv- er.)

A spokesman for the union said the strike is against all trains on these lines and.not just on their diesel-powered trains
