O'Donnell that be intended to bring a reference by the Work- meol'a Compensation Board before the Court in order to determine whether the P,. E. I. Industrial Corporation "is or is not owned or managed or controlled by His Majesty as represented by the Government of Prince Edward Is- land," the Supreme Court in banco Yesterday heard argument on pre- liminary objections raised by Mr. J. O. C. Camiibell. K.C., acting for the Attorney General and for the Corporation. The Court adlourned until the 14th instant without having ruled on'Mr. Cami Ts contention that while counsel for the Board had spoken of a "stated case." there was no case stated by the Work- men's Compensation Board before the Court. Three objections were considered to be capable of being overcome by amending the record of agree- ment of counsel, but Mr. Campbell declined to agree to jurisdiction. He maintained that the Workmen's Compensation Act authorized ref- erence by the Board on points of law. whereas on the record the purported reference was by "Hor- aoe Wright. Ohainman" and that no case had been stated by the Board. ” Mr. Justice Tweedy pointed out that "perhaps tomorrow Mr. Wright might not be chairman." Should the proceedings be con- tinucd, Chief Justice Campbell -in- dicated that the question at issue would be whether the Corporation is "controlled" by the Government. There is the turther ,uestion. among others. whether there is a question of law or of fact. the Statute providing for reference on the former while the decision of the Board on questions of fact is final. An unusual feature of the refer- ence. as pointed out by the Chief Justice. is that "one party wishes to pay money and the other de- clines to accept.” The issue arose over the Board's action in rebat- ing the Corporation's sssessnent for work:-nen's compensation, on the ground that the men would be paid from a iiund contributed by the Provincial Government.

Visiting Ontario Farmers Purchase Island Ayrhires Seven more Ayrshire cattle were bought yesterday by the three On- tario farmers visiting the Province. to bring to thirteen the number of cattle they have purchased for the potential carload of Ayrshir-es they hope to ship to their homes in On- tario. They priced quite a few more on their tour of farms in King's and Queen's Counties during the day and hope to complete the deals shortly. No swine were bought by the men yesterday but they may send for some later on. The three men. Messrs. R. O. Briggs, of Dundas. Sam Pattlson of Elora, and Donald Cummings of Lancaster made six purchases from the herd of Mr. W.W. Ander- son and. Sons. St. Peter's Bay. Among them were four two year old and one four year old heifers. The other animal is a -bull calf by the champion sire Glengarry Bit 0' Fashion and a full brother of Kendoral Grand Champion. They bought a two year old heif- er from the herd of Almon Wood and Sons, Marshfield, to round out the day's purchases. This heifer is a daughter of the sire Kendoral Bright Boy. On Wednesday they bought four heifers at the Ayrshire calf sale held at the Experimental Farm at- long with one cow from Mr. Irv- ing Nicholson, Orwell Cove, and a three"year old heifer from Mr. N. W. MacLeod and Sons, Dundas. The men were favorably im- pressed with the cattle and swine they viewed in the Province and Mr. Biggs and Mr. Pattison are having quite an argument over which of them made the better swine purchases. Mr. Biggs bought two bred gilts from Mr. Willard Proude, Kingston. who won the Brethour Trophy at the Royal Win- ter Fair last year. while Mr. Pat- ilson bought a young Yorkshire boar from Mr. Irving Nicholson. ” The men will leave for their homes early this morning. For Mr. Pattison it was his first visit to the Province and for Mr. Cumming his second. Mr. Cumming judged Ayrshire cattle at the Provincial Exhibition here in 1045. Mr. Biggs is a regular visitor to the Island. having been here several times in the past year. an. according to one report. American troops were forced away from Pyongtsek. 31 miles south of Seoul. But they were said to have knocked out. 17 tanks in a hard-fought. rearguard action to avoid encirclement. by Commun- ists who. as one soldier described it. "swarmed like rain." .Some reports indicated the North Koreans had three divisions numbe :..g 30,000 to 40.000 men en- gaged in the main assault. They were also said to be building up strength on the east coast. where beachhesds were established when the invasion began June 5. (At Washington today the U. 8.

Biggest Crowd ” In History Of Holman'LStore The largest crowd of people ever served in one day in the history of the store was the report last night after the completion of the Olienlng day's activities of liolmanis "3"! blfihdly party at their main store in Surnmeraldu. The volume of sales equalled that of the first day last year which was a record .high. It. is estimated that about 10.000 people were served during the day. All during business hours the store was thronged and the crowd overflowed. into the streets. other stores in the town which also oiiered special sales were busy as well. At Holman'a Little Miss 1875 in her traditional costume was on hand to greet the people and pre- sent them with a gift. The sale of grab bags could almost be de- scribed as a "mad rush" as people pushed and shoved in an effort to obtain one before the quota for the day would be sold out. - A large staff of additional clerks had been taken on strength on Monday morning to 'give them three days to get accustomed to their work before the rush com- menced. The activity of the day was in- creased by ihe appearance of Planter's Peanut float on the streets calling attention to the fact that Saturday is Kinsmen Peanut Day and there was also a tag day in aid of the Prince County Hos- pital. At cr....lotteto ' .. The largest crowd of people ever to throng into l-lolman's Store, Charlottetown. in one day shopped through that business institution yesterday on its 03rd anniversary, it was announced last night by Mr. Russel E. Seller. The birthday crowd was so large that the hard working clerks had difficulty in serving all who attended the party. Shoppers were lined up in every department in the building waiting for the clerks who kept serving the seemingly unending line of customers. Two men and one woman at- tending the party took ll, 119011 themselves to take home a few free gifts, it was learned from Mr. Seller. The female was caught with a lifted radio while one of the men took some candle sticks and the other man had some back saws. They were caught by the one policeman and two floor walk- ers on patrol. And everybody grabbed for the grab bags. There were 1800 placed in the store yesterday morning but they lasted only a short. time. Only evidence of their ex,1liehCB yesterday evening was the straw gul-rounding them which trailed from the store to the block cor- ners. Hew Experimental Farm Director orrawa.
