OTTAWA. June 18 -—(OP)—J0hn

Blackmore (SC—Lethbridge) said today in the Commons he has “evidence" indicating Veterans

Department psychiatrists “are em-

ployed occasionally to deprive a deserving veteran" of financial benefits.

Pressing the cases oi two 1n- dividual veterans during commit- tee study oi Veterans Deparbmen‘ estimates, he put on record 1' questions about psychiatrists. The" referred to "truth serum tests and “trance-like” conditions an inquired as to doctors’ power ova patients in those circumstances.

Veterans Minister Gregg said the Department will undertake to answer Mr. Blsckmore personally. If that was not satisfactory, D.V. A. then would “attempt to answer any questions appropriate to my Department and submit them to the committee."

Questioning of the Minister by Opposition members brought out these points:

1. Veterans vnho have been denied a pension on the grounds that their disabilities were of pro-enlistment origin now may apply for a review of their case.

2. The Government will con- sider making Canadians who fought with Allied forces elig- ible for veterans insurance.

3. The Government is ex- ploring the possibilities of hav- ‘ing what was to have been in occupational centre in Winni- peg used by some Federal De- partment or public bodies.

4. The Veterans Department is providing training for un- employed veterans of the First World War.

5. Oi the 53.000 veterans who started university courses, 400 have discontinued but only 25 of these gave up for financ- ial reasons. _

Much ‘Discussion 0n Salaries 0f Lieut. Governors

OTTAWA, June 1S —(Speclal)— At its morning session, the House of Commons passed Prime Min- ister King’s bill to provide for an increase in. salary from $7,000 to $8.000 a. year for Prince Edward Island's Lieutenant-Governor Jos- cph Bernard. The bill was featur- ed by lively discussion in which it was suggested:

(1) That the P.E.I. Lieutenant- Governor get $9.000 a year as do the Lieutenant-Governors of Brit- ish Columbia. Alberta. Saskatche- wan. Manitoba, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

(2) That the salaries cf the Lieutenant-Governors of Ontario and Quebec who now receive $10,- 000 a year take a cut-back to S9,- 000

(3) That the Lieutenant-Gov- ernors oi the Provinces accept and fuliii these positions very often-at personal sacrifice and that while they may get $9.000 a year, they give $25,000 worth of services.

Arguing in favor of the bill, Mr. King pointed out that the expense of maintaining government houses had risen considerably and that Lieutenant-Governors were being

called upon to meet increasing obligations. ~ "I derstand that in Prince

Edward Island." the Prime Min- ister said, "the Lieutenant-Gov- ernor has had to (meet practically all the expense himself in the maintenance of Government "—~~-- together with the expenses incident to secretary. His obligations have increased materially during the past few years and the Govern- ment felt that an increase oi $1.- 000 should be asked for at this time."

There has been no ‘adiustment 0f Lieutenant-Governors’ salaries for 40 years. Mr. Kin: said in re- ply to a question as ed by Oppos- ition Loader Jchn B cken.

Employment Trends In P. Island

Chief among the problems that the National Employment Office in Charlottetown has to deal with at bhs present time, is the hard task of obtaining help for the many farmers who have placed orders for farm hands. Applica- tions for this type of work are very scarce and the farmers are up against a real tough proposition. How many of them will require help for the haying season is not yet known, but it is inspected that the Charlottetown Ofifice will re- ceive at least twenty orders, when the hay is ripe for cutting. It was stated last week in this column that it might be necessary to bring m in from Cape Breton and it is aim st certain that arrangements will be worked out to that and.

Make Getaway , In Stolen Taxi

MONTREAL, June 18—-(CP)'—A daylight holdup, simple yet so dar- ing it left the victims gasping m surprise and frustration sent po~ lice on the trail of two armed ban- dits and $12,000 payroll money stor- en today from Western General Hospital.

Two hospital employees, bearing the bank notes, were about to leave a taxi at the hospital door when the armed hold-upmon forced their. back into the cab and, getting in themselves drove off.

In a matter oi minutes they dropped first hospital employees 5. Robinson and Miss Virginia Porter, then taxi driver Frank Edmonds. With that they took cver the cab themselves and disappeared in the downtown traffic of lute morning. Police said they had only “vague" descriptions of the men.

The hospital is in West Central Montreal, a scant 100 yards from the Forum on St. Catherines Street.

Not long after the hospital hold- up was reported police learned that two armed bandits held up a pay- mastefs shack of the Anglin-Nor- cross Company in north-end Rose- mount and made off with $215. Only the bandits’ late arrival kept their loot so low. A few minutes earlier and they would have had thousands of dollars in many pay envelopes. But pay distribution hao reduced the number of envelopes to eight by the time the bandits swooped down.

Edmonds had been called to the hospital at l0 am. to take cashie". Robinson and Miss Porter to the bank for the payroll and his taxi had barely stopped at the hospital door when the two hold-up men stepped up to it. forced the hospital employees to settle back in the hack and then drove off with them, enforcing their orders to Edmonds at gun point.

P. E. Island Swine Shipments For West

Two carloads of the Island's best swine, are leaving this morning fer. delivery in Winnipeg, Saskatoon, and Calgary.

"The swine, selected within the last two weeks by Mr. I-I. W. Clay, Dominion livestock fieldman, com- prised 19 boars of Advanced Regis- try stock and ‘i5 sows, 50 per cent of which were from qualified dams. The order was that all sows be of advanced registry stock but Mr. Clay said it was impossible to fill it. . Most buyers, he said. are insist-i ing that the stock they buy be from dams with a slaughter testof 80 per cent or over.

Mr. Clay said that while the Is- land hog breeder has reason to be proud of his accomplishment in producing stock which crest an i ' ‘ ‘ demand from other pdfho of Canada. it would be well fur many of them to improve their feeding methods. While the On- tario buyers who were hers re- cently were favorably impressed with what the top Island swine breeders had to offer, they never- theless found ground for criticism in that many breeders had stock which was undeveloped for the age of the animals. .

Another point Mr. Clay strmed was that it was an unwise thing for any farmer to attempt to de- velop breeding siock which was not out of qualified dams with s reasonably high score.

Including the present shipment of two cars (they will be in charge oi Mr. Alex. Waiters of Bradai- bane). tan cars of high quality swine have been shipped from the Island to points in Canada outside the Maritimes within the last two years, Mr. Clay said.
