Plrstueport of the strange ob- ects being seen in this Province came from a group of Summerside citizens who saw one as they drove along the highway at Bede- qus on Dominion Day. Since then reports of others being seen have multiplied.

Yesterday it was learned that a. farmer at Indian River. some six to eight milcs northeast of siimmerside, also saw an object in tho sky shout 5:45 Thursday afternoon. l-le saw it for about fivs seconds as it sped from west. to east. ile said it appeared to him to be describing an arc across the sky and to have fallen to- wards the earth to the eastward. no thought it was "about the size of a baseball" and said it was very bright. I-Ie described it as sort of silver colored and to be giving the appearance 0i’ a “lialo" with its brightness. He said it was "st average plane height." Like several other farmers who report- ed an obieci. at about the same time. he was working a cultivator in his field when his attention was attracted to the object,

At Lower Montague

A round object having the ap- pearance of a dinner-plate as travelled at great. speed through the air was scan by Mr. Percy W. Turner and a party of friends int Friday evening at Lower Montague.

The time was shortly after sun- down. Mr. Turner said, when he happened to glance into the air as he was s‘tting in front of his summer cottage with his friends. The object appeared to be only a few hundred feet in the air and dark in colour. No light what- ever emanated from it.

Mr. Turner said he kept his eyes on the object for about l5 sec- onds when it was lost from view as it travelled in a northwesterly direction.

SPOKANE, Wash.. July 8 .- (CP) - Eight flying saucers t0- tlay were reported to have made a. landing on a. alnsltle near St. llilaries. Idaho, in full viciv of 10 persons.

Mrs. Walter Johnson of sub- urban Dishinan said the sauc- ers came down 1r; timber there Thursday evening but had not been reported until she return- t-d to her home in Dlshrnan to- day.

The saucers were seen to fall near Butler's Bay on the St. Joe river six miles west of St. Marlee, where Mrs. Johnson was visiting her parents.

She said they came into view at an extrema speed. travelling from the south to the north. Suddenly they slowed. she said. and then “fluftcred like leaves to the ground"

She said the objects were saucer-shaped but, thicker than aha had expected. rescmblin wash-tubs more than disks. She described them as “about the size of a five-room house."

Mrs. Johnson said she was going back to the area Tuesday and hoped to hike into the tini- bcr and search for the objects.

In reply to a further question by Mr. McLure on freight rates. Mr. Chevrler said freight charge!

now crossing Norlhumberland Strait would be the same as on the Wood Islands-Caribou ferry and that commodities on trucks viould be exempt. To a plea from the Queen's member that the rates should be lifted altogether and the ferry regarded as a bign- way, Mr. Chevrler said:

“No Authority”

"The Minister (himself) tflkel the attitude that he has no auth- ority to fLx rates. That is for the Board of Transport Commission- ers. ‘That is the attitude I took in

the honorable gentleman last your and it must be the same answer this year." "I think", retorted Mr. McLure, ‘that was pretty well thrashed out before. We know that the terms of Confederation in 1073 come first. The Board of Transport Commissioners has no authority ii. that whatsoever. They have no right to set the rates. Why do they not set the rate from Char- lottetown to S. John's. Newfound- land? Because they have no out!» nrity." Mr. Chevrlcr declined to agree with Mir. McLure's that the Charlottetown last year a¢krWW~ lodged that it did not have rate- fixirig authority. "They said they doubted they had the rig rates," the Minister said, they proceeded to llx them."

Mother Willing To Risk Life For (lhilil

DETROIT. July 3 (AP) — A 30-year-old mother said toda she is willing to risk her oavn lfe to save her three-months-t-ld son, whom she must hold during 36 dangerous x-ray treatments if his eyesight is to be pIQSCrVPG

"If the risk were 100 times greater, I would gladly take it." said Mrs Calvin A. Delor. ~ It was disclosed a few reeks ago that the infant was slowly losing his eyesight and wag facing death. The father, a veteran. is a mech- anic. He and his wife were with- out funds.

A speciallst performed an oper- ation without remuneration. The right eye, most affected. was re- moved but it Wu discovered that the malignant growth had already begun its attack on the baby's left eye

Doctors said there is only one man undone institution --in New York - that may save the infant's life nncl sight. He has developed x-ray apparatus which has been used successfully in similar cases.

The operation, to cost 01.000. calls for someone to hold tho baby's head at each application of the x-ray. Because of the danger of the rays affecting the ‘holder, the New York hospital does not allow nurses 01 other employees to take the risk.

But Mrs. Delor is willing.
