OTTAWA, April 30-(C.P.)-Re-

duction of 20 per cent from the “basic” rates is recommended in a majority report of the Board of conciliation appointed to deal with the wage dispute between the Canadian Pacific Railways and their locomotive engineers, loco- motive firemen, conductors, train- men and teiegraphers. May 1 is re- commended ns the effective date.

The diminution is meant in bo

effective only while the present depression-lasts. Employees on the subs'dlary railways-Dominion At- lantic, Northern Alberta and Eaquimalt and Nanaimo-are in- c`uded in the additional 10 percent out. The workmen on thesesub- sidiaries were affected by the first 10 per cent deduction.

A t/en per cent decrease from

the "basic" rates agreed upon be- tween the parties in 1920 and 1929 has been in operation since Dc- oember 1, 1931. The cut recom- mended is an additional decrease of 10 percent, bringingthe totalrie- ductfon up to Mper cent from the "basic", rates. The companies hid prepofsl that the additional 10 per ent cut date from March 3. 1933

LIMA, Peru, April 30.- (A.P.)-

Luis M. Sanchez Cerro, President of Pen; since December, 1931, was as- sassinated today a short time after he had reviewed a parade of 20.000 young men in Jorge Chavez Park.

His assassin, Abelardo I-Iurtado De

Menjoza, fired several shots into the President’s body as the executives party started to drive away from the park.

Two soldiers were killed and one

officer, five soldiers and a. civilian wounded during a melee which fol- lowed upon the assassination.

The attack was so sudden, elabor-

ate precautions which had been made to protect the Presidents life were unavalling. A captain of the civil guards leaped on the Presiden- tial ear and attempted to shield Senior Sanchez Cerro, but without success.

Soldiers who lined the sidewalk

down which the President and his suite walked also were unable to stop the assassin before the President was niortally wounded. The ch'aufleur of the Presidential

automobile put on full speed as soon as the shots were fired and drove to the Italian hospital while Premier Manzanilla held the uncon- scious President's body in his arms.

His assailant, identified as Jose

er. The President, however, treated

his wound os a. joke the following day and attended to several affairs of state.

It was Sanchez Cerro who touch-

ed off the 1980 revolution in Peru which ended the regime of Akgusto B. Ieguia, but his Junta Govern- ment soon was replaced by another. Sanchez Cerro then went to Europe, but returned in time to start cam- paigning for the Presidential elec- tion of October ll, 1931, which plac- ed him in office. LIMA, Peru., April 30.- (A.P.)-
