llAND-TO-HAND COMBAT

WITH INSURGENTB OUTSIDE MADRID. April 13—-(AP)-—Insurg- ent troops were reported today in have tumed back Government sol»- diers trying tobreak through for- tifications in the University City sector.

General Andres Saliquetb veter- an Insurgent Leglonnaires were said to have shattered a big Gov- ernment attack during the night in bitter hand-to-hand fighting.

Trench knives, glittering in the light of flares and exploding shells, were used to halt Government at- tacks. Three hundred Government dead were found on one battlefield northtvest of the capital.

READY FOR SIEGE

SAINT JEAN DE LUZ, France. April 13- (AP) —Basque Govern- ment. troops at Bilbao, their source of new food supplies threatened by an Insurgent warship blockade. made ready today for a long siege and declared they would never yield.

Admitting the shortage of food was grave, Basque Government officials said their warships would convoy vessels that would attempt to run the Insurgent blockade and bring food to the beleaguered city.

Refugees, troops and civilians, pouring into Bilbao, swelled the city's population to more than

, 0.

Great Britain's decision to have her warships ascort freighters on the high seas only and not within the three-mile limit of the Span- ish coast deprived the Basques of important sources of food slip- plies.

HMS. Hood cruised in the Bay of Biscay today. Poor anchorage and rough seas made it inadvis- able for the warship to put into this port, but it was to return when the storm subsides. Unconfirmed reports said an It- alian flag was seen over Insurgent advance lines. Spanish Govem- merit sources construed this to in- dicute that Italian troops were be- ing used in the northern Insurg- ent drive against Bilbao.

Farewell Banquet For Mr. Robert Gordon

A most enjoyable ‘" ‘ was held on Monday evening at the Clifton Hotel in honour of Mr. Robert Gordon. who leaves this week for St. John, N. B.

The banquet was sponsored by the Board of Trade. Seventy two guests were seated round the fes- tive board, representing the busi- ness organimtions of the town.

Mayor Robinson and the Town Council were there in a body.

Mr. J.F. Amett, President 0f the Board of Trade presided.

After full Justice had been giv- en to the sumptuous dinner provid- ed by Mr. M.P. Titus and Mrs. Tit- us the chairman called for a toast to The King which was responded to by the National Anthem.

Mr. Amett then gave a short speech in which he expressed his pleasure in presiding over such a Jolly gathering to honour Mr. Gor- don, who had been the secretary of the S‘ ide Board of Trade for the past twelve years, doing his ciuty faithfully and well at all times. While Summerside re- joices that one of her citizens has been honoured and promoted to a higher office in another city they regret very much that it means parting. as Mr. Gordon has been connected with every worthwhil organization in the town. Mr. Gordon has been associated with the Express Office here for thir- teen years and through his pain- staking devotion to duty has re- ceived his reward in well meritlrd promotion. Mr. Arnctt felt he was expressing the wish of every citizen in Summerside in wishing Mr. Gordon every success in the future.

Mayor Robinson spoke next on behalf of the Town Council and citizens.

Mr. H.T. Holman was then called upon to deliver the address from the Board and make the pmsenta- Lion of a substantial purse. After

which all joined in singing "For He's A Jolly Good Flellow". Mr. Gordon replied in fitting

terms, expressing his tho-Inks for their appreciation of his services to the Board and their tangible ex- pressions of goodwill.

Mr. C.R. Rogers, the only chart- crcd member present, added a few words of congratulations and sin- cere thanks for Mr. Gordon's ser- vices as secretary to the Summer- side Board of ‘Trade. Other speak- ers were W. E. MacDonald. past president of the Board, Rev. LE. G. Davies, Councillors MacKay and Nicholson, Mr. Donald Baker, chairman of the Agricultural Com- mittee,‘ Mr. John E. Campbell, chairman of the Marine Commit- tce and Mr. E.J. Halictt, who spoke on behalf of the Canadian Legion.

“Auld Lang Sync" and “The King" brought to a. close an even- ing which will remain in the mem- ory of those present for a long time to come.

Mr. Gordon leaves tomorrow morning to take over his duties as manager of the St. John Branch of the Canadian National Express Company.

Following is the address: Monday, April 12. 1937. To Mr. Robert Gordon: It is up’ privilege on this occasion to express to you the regrets of the business interests and citizens of Bummer- side that you are talking your de- parture from amongst them. It is a satisfaction, however. to know that. the change means m you another step up on the ladder of success. and we will all watch with interest and‘ appreciation your further ud- vancement. We are confident. knowing you as we do and following your record up w the present, that the future has in store for you a career that possibly even you haven't visualiz- ed. The business world provides wonderful opportunities for ad- vancement and the rewards for conscientious work, initiative. and energy are rim to be despised. We all fully realize that you are a con- scientious worker. we know that you have initiative and your ener- gy is proverbial. These character- istics will carry you f" w‘!

world will move into a crisis at. once if Governments begin to accumulate wheat in fear of war.

Meanwhile, the earth itself is in, revolt in many of the countries adding to the danger of the situation.

Intensive modem farming has taken all the goodness out of the land in a few short years and it becomes sterile.

It becomes necessary ever to seek new wheutlands to replace the old ones that are "tired out."

CRISIS

l

To sum up this explanation of the world wheat situation:-

We are at a. critical stage.

N0 American or Russian wheat. No reserves. Little Canadian, Awentine or Australian wheat.

If we are not at the bottom of the Cycle. 1f the harvests of i937 are not good. famine conditions may develop in 1938.

That would essentially mean mt1°n1118 (B5 1X1 the Ereat war) in some countries. That has never hB-Pperled before, except 1n war, but it might happen now.

OSl-LAWA. Ont" April l3—-(CP) -—Mayor Alex Hall tonight despat- ched an invitation to Hon. Nor- man Rogers, Dominion Minister of Labor. to mediate the strike of 3,700 General Motors of Canada workers.

The Mayor telegraphed the min- lster after failing to receive an answer from General Motors as to whether the Company would wel- come federal intervention in the dispute.

His announcement came shortly after he had made it known the Company would be given. until 10 p.m. to make its decision and was made by the Mayor more than an hour before the deadline.

It was» indicated imoiflcially there would be no statement from the Company regarding federal in- tervention.

Willing to Assist

Mr. Rogers had informed the Mayor the department was willing to assist if such assistance was asked. A letter from the Minister to the Mayor yesterday invited OSIIBWB’! chief magistrate to seek consent of both parties.

There is a rule coined by I know not whom that a man to be a real man must make some enemies in his course through life and in his business contacts. You. sir, are the exception that proves this rule for you are an enemy to no man and no man is an enemy to you. In the final analysis the merit of u man is not in his material wealth or in some outstanding character- istic but in the esteem and respect in which he is held by his fellow citizens. Judged by this stand- ard you measure 100 per cent 101‘ you are held in the highest regard by one and all.

At this particular time it is my pleasure to present to you this token of our esteem. It is em- blematic of the feeling for W“ which pervades your business world. Coupled with this symbol vi’ Olll‘ regard is the wish of all of us that your path of progress may continue

WW Face“ Lobster Enquiry

UpensAfAlberton ‘

(Continued from page l) in the cookhouse of his father's factory. “I poached only once previously and that was in 193i," he said.

Witness said he was bothered several times by the officers, in fact he said he was chased three times in one day. He stated that while fishing lobsters during the closed season he pretended he was fishing cod fish and remarked "I would throw the line over and make a bluff at it."

He was of the opinion the offic- ers were trying to do their duty and they had lLSlTFily shown him no favoritism.

Mrs. Bessie Klnch the final wit- ness of the afternoon said the cannery at Goose Harbor operated in her name had been built about four years ago and that last year there had been between two and 65 boxes of lobsters canned illegal- ly there. Boxes constitute a half case.

“Was that about the same amount as you canned on the shore in previous years?”

"Yes."

“How long have you canned lob- stern illegally "

"Twenty or twenty-two years."

"What is your reason for can- ning illegally?"

"We have to do something. We have a big family-IS children. Our oldest ron is married and he has five children and that is our only source of income. What he makes from the fishing and can- ning of lobsters has to maintain the two families and it is pit-fly hard to make enough in two months. to do that. Mrs. Kinch told Counsel she was of the opinion that. they had received more for their illegally packed lobsters last year than they did from their leg- ally packed and as far as she know the illeually packed had been sold to Arthur Clark. Albcrton.

IICENSING TON z

On Tuesday evening, April 6th. a public Thankoffermg

S, of the United Church, was hold in the Asembly Hall. Hammond Toombs capubly Presid- ed. R/cv. Arthur Organ from Bedeqlie was the special speaker

and gave a. strong and stirring ad- dress on “Back-Yard Mr. OTgBXTSBIIIZ “Unless a church

ary work it will soon die." If we folk bet/ck home lose interest and faith, those on the frontiers, the missionaries engaged in front line work, must feel the effect, and faint and falter at their orduous task. How have we allowed our enthusiasm to be chilled? How have we lost. the flaming passion that filled our fathers hearts and for which many in the past have died? Have we in some way lost sight of the great essential things? The greatest obstacle to the work in foreign lands is the condition 0f the home church. The standards we have here, are the things undermining nussionary work. Greed is the heart of the order in which we are living. To make money, to be successful as the world counts success, is flatly in contradiction to that Jesus taught. We talk 0f Christian brotherhood, but we do not practice it. To seen in all colors and creeds a. man for whom Christ died, that is to practice Christian brotherhood. We must clean up our own way of living and thinking until every dark area is illuminated by God's presence.

Christ said, “Ye shall receive power after that the I-Ioly Ghost is come upon you, and yo shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem and unto the utiermost parts of the curt ."
