Daylight Time Measure Passed By City Council Unoflicially

In a move to cireumvert an Act of the Legislature providing for “one standard uniform official time" throughout the Province, the City Council last night ap- proved a resolution. by a vote of 5 to 3, to introduce Daylight Sav- mg Time unofficially during the summer months_

The resolution states that "from and after midnight of the 30th day of June. 1064. to midnight. of the 15th day of September. Daylight sgvjng Time. being one hour in advance of legal Standard Time, shall be in effect in the City of Charlottetown. It was moved by coun. Hutcheson and supported by

couiis. Keefe. Mccormack, Mac- Donald and Rogers. Opposing wm Couns. Johnstone, Gaudet and Ctormley.

A similar resolution was adopted at a special meeting of the Mon- iague Town Council earlier in the week, but was released for publica- tion only last evening.

In speaking to the City Coun- cil motion Coun. I-lutcheson said the move was being made due to the failure over the years to get daylight saving time here and he felt that "we must do something this year" or probably wait for 20 years.

Councillor A. Walthen Gaudet strongly oposed the resolution stating it was out of order as it would be illegal due to the Time Uniformity Act. He reminded the council that the city depended to

By MARC PURDUE PARIS tAP) —- An American source said Thursday night the Western powers have reached a firm fresh agreement on refusal to accept Communist China as a host nation at. the Geneva conference. This source disputed a statement from another informant earlier that still unsettled procedural questions might delay the Geneva meeting on lndo-China and Korea‘ from opening on Monday as sched- uled.

The American source said there is no prospect of postponement. Adrian Pelt. the United Nations official in Geneva who has been consulting with British, French. Russian and Amerclan represent- atives there, said from a "purely technical view" the conference can open as scheduled. He said tech- nical arrangements were far from perfect but adequate.

British Foreign Secretary Eden, U. S. State Secretary Dulles and French Foreign Minister Bidault met for two hours Thursday to iron out pre-conference details. One big hitch is Russia's in- sistence that the Geneva meeting be a five-power conference with Red China as one of the hosts. The western powers maintain that the Big Four Berlin meeting de- cided that tha Peiplng government would be only a participating

OTTAWA. (CP) — Raymond Arthur Davies, described as is Montreal left-wing writer. was sciitettcod Thursday to two years in peniteritiarv for passport frauds.

in sentencing the 46-year-old writer Judge A. G. Mcnougall said evidence in E two-day trial showed conclusively that Davies is in fact Rudolph Shohan who emigrated from Rusmia with his family to Boston in 1921 and later became active as a Communist in Cariisdaa and the United States.

The writer was found guilty of falsely claiming in a 1936 applica- t.ion for a Canadian passport that he was Raymond Arthur Davin. a British subpcct born in Montreai. in 1902.

Peter Nrwcombe, defence coun- sel, said he may appeal the sen- tence.

MAxlML'lti TERM

The sentence was the maximum prison term which could be im- posed for the offence. although Davies also could have been fined up in 5500.

Special crown prosecutors .I. J. Robinette of Toronto and Rowell Laishley of Ottawa brought wit- nesses out of Davies’ past. to test- ify that he r-mtgrated*’tb"lBoxton"ne a youth and subsequently became active as an organizer for tho Young Communist League, both in Canada and the United States.
