youth masquerading as a woman was advanced tonight by Sir Ber- nard Spilsbury, Europe's most pub- licized criminologist.

The lice sleuth of Scotland Yard, called into Britain's newest mys- tery today, said after examining the gruesome find that there were indications peroxide had been used to whiten the flesh and remove hair from the legs.

He also pointed out that the toes were abnormally cramped and the insteps arched, as if deformed from wearing s woman's shoes.

unemployment in Canada, James S. Woodsworth. leader of the Co-oper- ative commonwealth Federation

today.

"Can we expect these people to remain loyal and law-abiding," ask- ed the slender, grey-haired third party leader as he pictured distress among the unemployed. the lost hopes and shattered ambitions. Pres- ent-day conditions could not con- tinue another two er three years. he warned the government, insisting every man and woman among the jobless had a claim. "for adequate maintenance" in lieu of work.

Three l-lour Discussion

For nearly three hours the House discussed the motion of Hon. Ian MacKenzie (Lib. Vancouver Centre) criticising the government for not presenting to Parliament a policy to and distress conditions. The C.C.F. leader announced he would support it and the vote may come later to- night.

Hon. Raymond Morand (Cons. Essex East) assailed the Liberals for attempting to make political capital out of unemployment. The Liberals, “found more solace in the diflicul- ties of the government than in their desire to help."

The Essex Conservative, who held oflice a few months fn the 1926 Meighen Government, called upon the Opposition to co-operate with the Government in lcrmulating policies. So far, Liberals had done nothing but criticise and forget their past promises.

Laid Groundwork

The Government, said Dr. Mor- and, had laid the gl-oundwonlc to remedy distress conditions and would continue until the job was finished. A front-bench Liberal, Hon. Fer- nand Rinfret, former state secretary, said his party would co-operate with the government but could not as long a; no policy was presented. He said tile administration was like a doctor who promised to cure a. pati-

that long.

It was time the people were made aware of the true state of unem- ployment, said Ross W. Gray (Lib. Lambton West). The government hoped for something from the eight- hour day and the 48-hour week. Yet in the city of Sarnia where ‘ ment was fairly steady and large plants had the eight-hour day in operation the number of y- ed was steadily increasing. It was United Farmers of Manitoba." re-

' higher in 1934 than in 1935.

Why, asked Col. H. A. Muilens (Cons. Marquette) did the United Farmers of Manitoba ask the aboli- tioncf relief camps so they could secure-shear labor? - "I cannot accept any responsibil- ity for resolutions passed by the tortecl Mr. Woodsworth.

There were some lazy, shiftless misfits among the unemployed, con- tinued the C. C. F. leader, "but the great majority of the unemployed are there because there are no jobs available."

Mr. Morand said Mr. MacKenzieu proposals were interesting particu- larly as they were made in the ab- ‘sence of and without a word of sup- port from Liberal Leader Macks

Toronto Gunmen Arrested

(C. P. liy Guardian's Special Wire) TORONTO, Feb. Zii-Three men, one of them out on $15,000 bail on two charges of robbery, were ar- rested here today soon after the Pa/pe and Sammon Avenue _brancli of the Imperial Bank was robbed of between $200 and $450 by Vwo filmed Euflmien» . The trio, George Smith, George Iieese, 30, and Arthur Connelly, 40, were charged with robbery while armed. Basil B. vale, manager of the branch, was shot in the thigh and hand but not seriously injured when the i-obbers fired four shots at him after he whipped a revolver from a cash drawer. Vale shot twice, neither shot hitting the ban- dits. After being treated by a phy- sician, he was taken to hospital.

Liberal Attitude

The Liberal platform of 1910 con- tained clsusea pledging unemploy- ment insurance, the eight-hour day and other advanced social measures. Since 1919 the Liberals had been nine years in office and boasted cf the prosperity of those years and of the co-operation it enjoyed from the provinces, and yet nothing had been done to give effect to theplatform.

Mr. Rlufret, a former mayor of Montreal. said the Federal Govern- ment cut down its relief payments to Quebec froln‘$1.000.000 to $400,- 000 a month. Thlsforced the pro- vince and municipalities to carry the extra‘ load but when Premier L. A. Taschcreau offered to split the costs 50-50 with Ottawa it was turn- ed down. ' “The policy of public works of this government in my city (Montreal) has been a. policy of excavations," said Mr. Rlnfret. A huge excava- tion had been made for the Canad- ian National Railways terminal and work stopped. It would be just as reasonable to blame Mr. Rinfret as a former mayor for the unemployment in that oity as to blame the Federal Gov- ernment, said T. L. Church (Cons. Toronto East). He strongly depre- cated considerin! the Problem from a party angle when so much dis- tress and suffering was involved. Yet the Liberal party in making the present move showed nothing but party zeal. Economic Liberalism with its cam- paigns for "free trade and semi- free trade," said Mr. Church, must bear alarge share of responsibility for present conditions. Robert MacKcnzie (Lib. Assin- iboia) blamed the government's fis- cal policies for distress. While un- employment ‘ d trade fell off and the country never would recover ‘its feet until people were put to work. Ever since tho-high tariffs were erected in 1930, unemployment had been gaining and trade fallins. said Mr- Msfltisnm-

In winter the boat would come as far into coastal ice as , “ ' and the liquor would be unloaded into a car driv- en out on the ice. In summer he had taken delivery of liquor from the "Swath" at R-iverport Wharf. from Willoughby Rltcey.
