intend to preserve order." Guardsman Wounded

The possibility that the strikers and thcir friends also were firing was seen when a. wounded guards- man was taken to a hospital.

The dead: Stevg Cylgon. 20, an unemployed youth. Frank Hubay, 27, who lost his job at a. battery shop on Monday. A 15-year-old boy, David De Wood, was taken to Wo- men's and Children's Hospital with a-wound in his leg. One report said he had been shot, but another gave the cause as a bayonet wound. Other known victims of the gun- fire: Willie Abel. 26, who was in a serious condition. Joe Weislek, 32. who said he was an Auto-Lite worker, shot in the leg. James Larnping, 32, shot in the left arm. The spearhead of the riot was thin a few blocks of Cherry treat, a main traffic artery which outlines the business section.

The shooting cllmaxed a day of spasmodic assaults against the troops, interspersed with taunts and jeers. Many wero hurt in these early clashes, and dozens went to hospitals with streaming eyes to receive first aid treatment for the effects of the tear gas. " The rioting started soon after the siege of the Auto-Lite plant, where strikers had kept non-union em- ployees virtual prisoners through- out the night, was lifted with the arrival of the troops. A chilling rain had speeded the release just about the time the militia reached the city. Guards with fixed bayon- ets stopped cars in a restricted area around the plant.

Appointed Mediator

Meanwhile. Secretary Frances Perkins of the Labor Department appointed Charles A. Taft of Cin- cinnati. son of the former Pres- ident, a special mediator in the strike, which started five weeks ago. The automotive workers de- manded a 10 percent wage increase. recognition of their union and priority rights. Company officials last night offered to submit all the questions involved to the Detroit Auto Labor Board for mediation. On the basis of affidavits by John J. Flynn, charging them with maintaining a public nuisance. warrants were issued for the arrest of O. O. Miniger, President of the Electric Auto-Lite Company, and J. Arthur Minch. Vice ncsldent. Tear gas bombs had filled his home across from the plant during yes- terday's rioting, Flynn said, and drove out his wife and infant daughter.

Minch was released on his own recognizance after being booked at police headquarters. "l have no in- tention of shutting down the plant," Minlger told newspapermen as he was being registered by the police turnkey. "We shall continue to op- erate."

PAINFUL ACCIDENT-Friends of Mr. William Dickson, Gaytown. will be pleased to learn that he is making satisfactory recovery from a painful accident which occurred early this week while lobster fish- ing, and in which his right thumb was badly smashed in the hoisting gear of the boat. Mr. Dickson, with a hired man. was fishing eight miles off shore at the time of the accident. Prompt action on Mr. Dickson's part in stopping the en- gine averted what might have been a much more serious mis- hap.

RECONSTRUCTION 0F RIFLE RANGE — Reconstruction of the Kensington Rifle Range has been started this week under the direc- tion of Mr. G. Welsh, Dominion Government engineer, and will con- tinue for about three weeks. On Wednesday l9 men were employed, thirteen of whom were returned sol- diers. Slx additional carpenters, i.rl- cluding four returned men, will go on the job this morning. While an effort has been made to employ as many Legion members as possible, other necessitous cases have had to be considered and the work is being distributed on a basis of fairness to all conccmed.

RED CROSS ADDRESS-Dr. H. E. Munro, Lieutenant Governor of the Province of Saskatchewan, ad- ‘dressed radio audiences over the Canadian network Wednesday night outlining the work of the Red Cross in that province and making an appeal for funds to carry on its many useful activities. In reviewing the work of the Sask- atchewan Division, he told about the ten outpost hospitals now in operation in that province saying that 1,700 patients had been cared for in them during the past year. The lieutenant-Governor also re- ferred to the splendid efforts being made by the Saskatchewan Divi- sion on behalf of crippled and oth- erwise handicnppe-d children. In closing he said: "The appeal is a very urgent one and support must come from those who can spare a little." Last night Hon. J. E. Brownlec, Premier of the Province of Alberta, addressed the Canadian public over a net work of radio stations in tile interests of the Na- tional Red Cross Society. He point- ed out that the people of this country can best show their grat- itude for the magnificent service the Society rendered during the Great War by supporting its un- dertakings in these days of peace, which efforts are as extensive and important as in the disastrous days of the World War. Along with its usual work the Red Cross has co- operated in a very extensive way with the Government of Canada in tho execution of their relief meas- urea made necessary by the D10- longed "Depression."

cheapest financing of this character arranged by any Dominion in the London market during the past year. It compares with a 4 percent basis for the Dominion of Canada loan which was floated in London last August. That loan marked the re- entrance of Canada to the London market after an absence of 20 years. It carried a 4 percent coupon, was offered at par and is now selling at 108 callable in whole or in part on or after May 1, 1950. It carried a sink- ing fund of one half of one percent per annurn.

Underwriting of the loan was suc- cessfully completed in London today. It will be advertised on Friday (and Sunday) and applications from the public will be received on Monday next. »-

The loan is being raised to pro- vide funds to meet sterling obliga- tions and for other government pur- poses. On June first of this year the Dominion Government has to re- deem a 3% percent issue of regist- ered stock which was offered in Lon- don in 1684 and is still outstanding in the amount of £4,623,028, of which £2,026,775 is held in the~ sinking un .

"For centuries the British peo- ple have given light and leading to mankind, and we of the Dom- inions who have enjoyed the bene- fits of our association are now more effectively cooperating with the head of the family in main- taining the permancy o! what we have builded.
