Chief Officer Warms Testified Acid T h r 0 wi n g Was Threatened.

(A.P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

NEW YORK, SQDi- M-Less than 24 hours before fire destroyed the liner Morro Castle with the loss of 132 lives, Captain Robert R. Will- mott voiced the fear that the lln- er’; assistant wireless officer, George I. Alagna, would throw acid in his face, it was testified today.

This fear was so real, Chief Of- ficer William F. Warms testified before the Federal inquiry board today, that he kept the door oi his cabin locked.

Worms, called $0 ilestiiy a. sec- ond time to the events surrounding the holocaust, declared the master was in “real fear" of Aiagna, and only a few hours before he died Friday night expressed a premon- ition 0i disaster.

Had P‘ niOnPiIm

"Something is going to happen," Worms quoted the Captain as say- ing. That evening willmott was dead, and barely eight hours later his command was a chamel ship.

“The Captain told me after we left Havana to ‘keep an eve on that fellow Alagna-he has two bottles of sulphuric acid?’ warms said. _

“I was afraid." Worms told the board. “he would throw acid in the Captain's face and I asked him to let me iron Alagna. but the Captain said not to."

After warms and Alagna. togeth- er with a. dozen others, were taken Ioff the coast guard cutter. Warms testified, "Alagfla went around say- ing ‘I'll get lhc officers mow. and I'll fix the Ward line so it won't come back?’

Evidence Corroborlltcd

Five

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) Liberal members were elected t0- night to the House of Commons in four out oi’ five by-electlons in On- tario. The net gain to the Liberal party was two seats, bringing their total in. Parliament to 92. ,

Conservatives, retaining Toronto East, added one to their number for a total of 135.

Conservative losses came in Froli- tenac-Addlngton, where Colin Campbell defeated w. n. Avice- worth, Conservative, and carried the Liberal standard to the party's first victory in the ndlnz. and 111 York North, where W. P. Muiock defeated Harold Bruels by a heavy majority.

It was Thomas L. Church, seven times Mayor oi Toronto. 50ml?!‘ member bf Parliament and defeat- ed candidate in the 1930 general e1- ections, who scored the lone Con- servative victory. Mr. Church held Toronto East safe in the following of Prime Minister R. B. Bennett and will now take his seat in the House after an absence oi four years.

The electoral battles were called the "little general election" and were eagerly watched by political observers as indicative of a trend for the general election which will

The Elgln West riding, vacated by Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn of Ontario, was retained by the Lib- erals, W. H. Mills defeating the Conservative candidate, I-I. C. Bor- bridge, and H. W. MacDonald, Ili- dependent, who ran for behind.

Kenora-Rairly River, where polls closed an hour later, remained in the Liberal column by electing H. B. McKinnon, who carried the ap- proval of the Liberal party IhOHEh officially designated as Liberal- Labor candidate. The defeated Conservative candidate for the seat formerly held by Hon. Peter Heen- an, Ontario Minister of Northern Development, was Joseph Derry.

Frontenuc-Addlngton proved the surprise of the five by returning a Liberal for the first time in his- tory. The present constituency was established in 1924 but in neither Frontenac-Addlngton nor the old. riding of Frontenac was a Liberal ever elected until Colin Campbell secured more votes than W. R. Aylesworth, the Conservative can- didate yesterday. Dr. Wllllflm Spankie who died recently had lheld it as a Conservative since 1929. The total vote was much heavier than in i930.

The election oi Liberals in Elgln West and Honors-Rainy River came as no surprise. Elgln West sent Mitchell I“. Hepburn to the House of Commons when he was 30 years old as a Liberal and three months ago sent him to the On-

ment Emphasized by Mr. John Moynan, Ottawa.

Mr. John Moynun, Ottawa, Chief Supervisor of Illustration Stations for Canada, is at present on the Island. Yesterday he inspected five illustration stations in tile eastern part of the Province, namely Si» Peter's, Red Point, Montague, World Islands and Iona. Mr. R. C. Parent, the Prince Edward Island Super- visor, and Dr, J. A. Clarke, Super- intendent oi the Experimental Stu- tion, Charlottetown, accompanied Mr. Moynan.

At the present time thirteen il- lustration stations are in opcr- ation in Prince Edward Island, be- ing part of a Dominion wide net- work of stations operated. by the Experimental Farms Branch, Ot- tawa. There are 208 such stations in operation in the Dominion.

The illustration stations are in reality outposts of the Dominion Experimental Farms operated in outlying districts for the purpose of studying the local problems of agricultural production. They have as their function the verification of experimental findings on several particular phases of agricultural production as well as being fact finding and fact demonstrating.

One of the main studies on the Island during the past eight years has been directed to n study of soil fertility, relating to the supple- mentary use of chemical fertiliz- ers, the use of ground limestone, also s. study of permanent pasture problems centering around the use of chemical fertilizers. In co- operation with experimental farms quite extensive trials are under way aiming to study problems aris- ing from club-root, and brown heart in turnips. Such trials are being conducted at Rustlco. Iona, New London, Rose Valley, Monta- gue and Wood Islands.

At the present time a new and enlarged policy of farm improve- ment is being inaugurated on Prince Edward Island stations, as well as in Eastern Canada, aiming to develop a, full and complete
