Differing Views Ex- pressed At Service Club Function.

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

CALGARY, Sept. l0—Differing views on the obligations of the Dominions within the Empire were voiced here today by two dis- tinguished easterners, Prime Min- ister Bennett and Rev. Di‘. J. A. Richardson, Archbishop of Fred- ericton. They were guests at a service Club luncheon and de- livered brief addresses.

Dr. Ric‘ ’ deprecated the tendency of many Canadian to lClWB the burden of Empire de- fence cn the Motherland. "During the war," he said, "Canada stood on the platform of responsibility. Now we are in danger of standing on the plstionn oi privilege." Democratic imperialism at its best was founded on pat.‘ ‘ .

The Bishop's viewpoint Wu that commonly held 25 years ago the Prime ,‘Minister observed. but now out-moded. The Motherland was still powerful and vigorous but was "no longer the directive mach- ine of our national life." Canada was in full control of its own des- tlnv. Operating as a self-govern-

(C. P. By Guardian's Special WIN) CALGARY. Sept. lb-Propolals of the government to assist in se- curing technical training for child- ren whose parents are " unable to provide an education, and the pol- icy of uslnga, ' schemeto retire from the labor market those who reach a certain age, were among the subjects touched upon tonight by Prime Minister Bennett. There never had been any idea of a statutory retirement of those whcieschthe ageofd0soasto make way for the employment of younger men, the Prime Minister said. The proposal was to make it possible for such retirements on s.

Development of Canada would open up opportunities for youth and would require skilled and trained workers. Depression had meant. that many children had been deprived of the educational facilities they would normally have enjoyed. It was proposed to make technical training available to those who had. suffered. throulh the inabllltyof their parents tc secure normal employment. Mr. Burnett. who earlier in the day had been the unanimous choice of a Calgary West Conservative convention, addressed tonight the only general public meetin, of his visit to his adopted city. He dis- cussed briefly the legislative abtlv- ltles of his government and their results, the reform policy and its progress, foreign trade, the wheat board, and the government's rela- tions with the provinces.

(C. I. By- Guardian's Special Wire)

ISLINGION, Ont., Sept. 10- Professor Joslyn Rogers. chemical analyst of the University of Toron- to, told a. coroner's inquest tonight inquiring into the death oi Leonard Koeneoke, Brooklyn baseball player, that there were trues oi alcohol in Koeneckeu organs, though none in food in the stomach. "If there was any tendency st all for a man to be violent or quarrelsome." Koen- ecke was in ‘excellent condition for it to break out."

Prof. Rogers‘ evidence came after police officers and others had told of the forced landing oi the plane at Long Branch race track early last= l. esday morning in which Koerlcckek body was crumpled be- hind the rear seat.

Pilot William J. liculqueeney and Irwin Davis, a parachute jumper, evidence showed. told officers Koenecke became violent during a trip from Detroit to Buffalo and the pilot struck the ball player over the head with a fire extinguisher.

Condition of Koeneckek organs, said the analyst, "would indicate this man was in a second class of intoxication when violence might appear."

Professor Rogers assured Crown Attorney Frank Moore that no poisons “other than alcohol" were found. Moore said he asked about this to "quash reports going the rounds that poison had been found in the stomach."

Just before Mulqueeney, held on a charge of manslaughter with Davis. stepped up to give evidence, Col. Douglas Joy, federal district inspector oi civil aviation. said he was "very surprised" that Mul- queeney had been able to make such a "comparatively safe land- ing" considering the "ordeal he was going through."

Mulqueeney then came forward to relate the story of the wild air

thought he had the mach‘ne under control and that a. slate of can- dldates would be chosen in orderly fashion at a caucus.

But shortly after the announce- - rrents were made both Noe and Marlin walked into the Governor's office and told him the facts. They both left smiling and pleased and Governor Allen left bv a rear- door. The Governor plainly was shocked by the rebellion within his ranks and other lieutenants expressed anger. ‘ ~

LONDON, Sept. ill-A “powder keg" situation in the Mediterran- ean becoming rapidly more dan- gerous because of Italian and Brit- ish naval developments was re- ported tonight by foreign military observers.

There is purpose. they declared. behind the mobilization of the best ships, airplanes and troops of both countries within the MfidltfllTfl-fiwrall and at its entrances. ‘ Reuters News Agency reported an omclal defence proclamation at Gibraltar advised the public to lay in a supply of candles because. "in the event of certain emergencies it may prove neces ‘to extinguish all lights throughout Gibraltar." The Cunard-White Star Line de- nied reports that the S. S. Horn- eric had been ordered to proceed to the nearest port in the Medli/er- ranean and discharge her passen- gers. Omcials said the ship was proceeding on her normal cruise, that her next stop would be Gib- raltar. and that she would arrive at Southampton Sept. 25.

Aircraft f0!‘ E87‘!!!

Many aircraft have been recent- iv dispatched to build up the Brit- isn defences. especially in Egypt, but details have not yet been made public.

An informed source in London expressed belief Italy has more alr- plaries and troops in Libya alone than Britain has in the whole 5,- 000 mile stretch from Gibrliliifll‘ t0 Aden.

All British activities continue t0 be labelled ‘precautionary’ and there was of course no reflection in the British press or oillcial quar- ters of war talk as is noted in Rome.

The King and Queen will return from Balmoral, Scotland. tomorrow. breaking up their holiday three or four days early.

Most ministers are expected to assemble quietly in London early next week for a review -f the sit- untion.
