Urges Belgians Prepare BRUSSELS, April 5—An invasion of Belgium, more swift and deadly than in 1914, was pictured last night by youthful King Leopold as a possible future prospect “against which all Belgians must be per- manently prepared." The King addressing Belgian army units at Camp Beverloo, gave his unqualified support to the new national security plans drafted by Defence Minister Albert Deveze. “Because. of new and rapid means at the disposal of modern armies, another invasion of Belgium could strike at its very centre within a few hours” the King said. "From the time hostilities start. destructive armies will be able to move as they never have done be- fore. "It is therefore necessary for every one of us to be prepared and to keep ourselves and our military skill in a state of permanent ef- ficiency. In the light of recent events, this has acquired new and special importance for our people." Governor - General’s Son Arrives In Halifax (C. P. By Guardian‘: Special Wire) HALIFAX. April 5—Hon. J. N.

BANNISTER CASE GES T0 JURY TODAY Defense Lawyer Charges W i t n e s s Was Under Police Influence In Giving Testimony. (C.l’. By Guardian‘: Special Wire) DORCHESTER. N. B.. April 5 —- Charges that Frances Bannister, 15 year old sister of Daniel Bannister, 20. charged with the murder of Philip Lake, was under police in- fluence even when she was testify- ing on the witness stand during his trial. were levelled here Satur- day by H. Murray Lambert, defence counsel. The siiva--haired Moncton law- yer who has already defended two other membcrs- of the Bannister family. both successfully and un- successfully, made the charges dur- ing his address to the jury. Arthur Bannister, l8, has been convicted of Lake murder; his mother, Mrs. May Baluilsicr. has been acquitted of kidnapping and conspiracy to kidnap but found guilty of being an accessory after the fact. "All the time Frances Bannister gave evidence, there were five or six Royal Canadian Mountrd Po- lice constables in their scarlet.tu- nics down there to the left of the prisoner." Mr. Iambert said. "They did not sit there while any other witness gave evidence. "I submit that she was under the influence of the police even while she was giving evidence. She has been in their custody since the eighth or ninth of January last and during the time she was on the witness stand, they sat down there with their eyes on the girl." Mr. Lambert attacked the evi- denée of several other witnesses called by_ the Crown. Without nam- ing thcm he said he doubted their testimony. "I think they thought it was a good way to get a lot of publicity. some of them even got their pictures in the papers." he said. The evidence agaimt the accused was circumstantial only, he charg- ed. Chief Justice Barry had proceed- ed as far as the summing up of the Crown's case when he adjourned the court until Monday. The re- mainder of his charge is expected to take about an hour and the case will be given to the jury.

By Guardian‘: Special wire) VATICAN CITY, April 5. —- The emptiest Holy Week Rome has seen for many decades began today when Pope Pius received the decorated palms from the Bresca family of San Remy. They have supplied the Pontifi's palms for the Sunday be- fore Easter since 1585. The Easter period, which always has been a favorite time for tourists and pilgrims, finds the eternal city with few visitors this year. One of the reasons is that the Italians are busy with their war against Ethiopia and equally con- cerned with resisting the sanctions imposed by the League of Nations. The troubled European situation, combined with Pope Pius‘s declining strength, have served to deprive the Roman Holy Week of its accustom- ed glory. Fast Route Lays By Newfoundland For New Skyways (By Oscar Leiding) (By The Associated Press) LONDON, April 5 — Seventeen years after her own John Alcock and Arthur Whitten Brown made the first non-stop flight, over the Atlantic. Great Britain is making preparations for her first commer- cial ocean air service to parallel the much-travelled ocean route. Two types of planes, a four-en- gined. two-decked flying boat and a novel combination of a long- range seaplane and a. flying boat to launch it in rnidair, are being pre- pared for trial flights in May or June. One or both of there typcs will make experimental transatlantic flights this summer to pave the way for the co-operative scheme of the United states, Great Britain, Can- ada and the Irish Free State for four round-trip flights weekly. Picked men, undergoing training ai; Britain's '“air university" at Hamble. will make up the crews and from the west coast of the Irish Free State to the south coast of England civic bodies are pressing for their localities to be selected as the European terminal. Milford Haven. Plymouth. South- ampton and Liverpool are among the chief points in England which have been mentioned as possible bases while in Ireland claims have been advanced particularly for Gal- way and Floynes on the west coast and Cobh on the south coast. Foynes is highly regarded t it tion on the Shannon estuary. The river there is more than eight miles wide. providing ample facin- ties for seaplanes and flying boats. while adjoining it are large tracts planes. While experimental nights are scheduled for this summer, British air experts consider it will be 1938 before the co-operating countries will be able to maintain a re:'ular service of four round-trips weekly.

Sec. 65 ll) provides: “When loss or damage is sustained by any person by reason of a motor ve- hicle upon a highway the onus of proof that such loss or damage did not arise through the negligence or improper conduct of the owner or driver shall be upon the owner or driver." .‘~fr. Baker believed some pro- tection should be accorded one driver of a motor vehicle who is sued by a passenger whom he has picked up voluntarily. Premier Campbell said the law now protected the driver except in case of negligence on his part. . ‘RUNREN DRIVING Sec. 84 provides: "(l) The lic- cnse of a person who is convicted of driving a motor Vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs. shall forthwith upon, and automatically with such conviction. be suspended for I period. (b) not exceeding six months for the first offence; (b) not less than six months and not exceeding twelve months for the second offence. and for the third offence his license shall be can- celled and he shall be disquali- fied from thereafter holding a license. (c) And in addition if the person convicted is the owner of the motor vehicle such motor veh- icle shall be impounded as Dm- vided in Section 71." The Premier explained that the section is the same as in the exist- ing statute. It has been urged.huw- over, that for intoxicated drtvink a period of six months' suspension of license should be increased to two years. and that the person so convicted should not under any circumstances be reinstated dur- ing that period. The difficulty is that the suspension takes place and almost immediately after the suspension is made, the person applies to the Provincial Secretary for reinstatement and follows this hours of each other, by the north- crly route, or a service taking three days by the Bermuda-Azores route. With the, new British liner “Queen Mary" capable of crossing the At- lantic in four days. the opinion of British air experts is that aviation will have to operate the fastest route. They hasten to explain. however. that even on a three-day schedule an air service would be advantageous if four round-trips ‘ were made weekly. because of the rqaiarity before the time is up. it causes I great deal of inconvenience and nuisance. l-Ion. Mr. Prowse said he did not think the law could be too harsh with regard to persons driving 0: car under the influence of liquor. because they must be made to realize that they are driving a very dangerous vehicle. The en- forcement of this clause should be strengthened. “People should _be made to realize that this is one of the things that must be strong- ly enforced. You have got IoQ‘bI ' sober when you are driving a car. I don't care who he is. I believe they should be given some '¢',~o‘n. sideration in their permit again, but I think this provision of .-six months is not a bit too stringent. Mr. Acorn: "I don't think months' is sufficient. I would move that it be amended to read, aper- iod of one year for first offence, and for a second offence that mg driver's license be cancelled and that the Provincial Secretary have no discretionary power to rein. state until the period has expir- ed.” Hon. Mr. Prowse: “I think that is pretty stringent. You might get a. man on the first offence and it might be the first time he took a. drink. The term of six months seems to be sufficient.” Mr. Barbour: "If he gets six months in June, he would really be out about a year anyway; but if he gets six months in November he would be free to go on the road again in the Spring. Perhaps one year would be a better reg- ulation." Hon. Mr. Prowse: “That is so; I had not looked at that side of the question." Premier Campbell: "One year is really the cquivalent of six or seven months on the road. I; would not work any additional severity." Mr. Acom‘s amendment was car- ried without opposition. It pro- vidcs for suspension of 1'.’ months for first offence and not less than 12 months or more than two years for second offence. The bill was reported agreed to with amendments. it 1 p. m. the House adjourned to meet at 3 o'clock on the affair noon of Tuesday. April 14.
