Gites Appropriate Passage From Shakespeare

OTTAWA, Jan. iii-A quotation from Shakespeare's Othello best expressed the apparent attitude oi

problems with which he last had to deal. ELI-Ion. R. B. Bennett suggested today in the House of Commons in discussing the eb- dication proceedings. The quotation was:

The slow and un- steady rise might mean any kind of weather the meteorologist said last night. as no accurate predic- tion could be based on an irregular barometer reading. Two inches of snow and 0.86 niches of rain fell yesterday.

Officers in charge of the police were determined that they should not use their guns, fearing they would only add to the panic and danger of the crisis.

In order. then .to break up the rioting and incendiarism among more than 500 who were actively

engaged. it we". necessary for the 88 police to allow themselves to be locked inside the tower and wings of the reformatory itnd to take a chance that they could bluff the prisoners as they herded one group after another into the cells. Without weapons the police went about the various parts of the building open to the prisoners. They shouted at them and gathered them together until there were groups oi about 50 each. Then they hurried them along to the cell block and locked them in. Those who offered resistance were fright-
