D0mini0n’s Air Mail Service

{(3.12 By Guardian's Special Wire) OITAWA, Jan. 3~War clouds over Europa have brought plans for rapid advancement of air bases, the building of ‘plane fleets and the ex- penditure of millions of dollars but in Canada only the development of e time aviation has been thought of, the opening of aerial lanes of commerce.

The year 1936 may see great de- velopment 7h the Dominions plans for commercial aviation, providing links in tho proposed trans-Pacific and trans-Atlantic mail services. The Dominion's air mail service across the western Prairies to Van- couver may be re-cstnblished or at lleas tplane aid fqr its opening early in i937.

Veteran pilots who pioneered commercial routes in the Dominion are _ready to take their places at

the controls if the mail services_

are xix-established. As they wing theii- way over lonely prairie lands and across the hazardous, fag-men- aced mountains, they may think of two pioneers.

One of the aerial pioneers may never return to Canada. He is Her- bert Holilck-Keriyon, ace flier of Winnipeg, who with the American explorer, Lincoln Ellsworth, has been unreported in the Antarctic for more than a month. He disap- peared on a P0181” flight-

Making It Saf For Investors

(A.P. By Guardian's Special Wire) LONDON, Jan. 3—Legislation for protection o. the British investing public was recommended tonight by it stock exchange commitiw which for a year has been investigating "fixed truats." "

Some £45,000,000 Jabout $225,-

000,000) has been invested in the fixed trusts in the last four-years, much of it in small savings. The committee's report stated there was no cause for public mis- givings in the present situation, but that the investigation "makes it clear that this method or invezt- ment provides a. means of obtaining money from the public without af- fording, in return, safeguards in legislation which surround other forms of investment."

Is '86 And Still Rides a. Bicycle

MONTREAL, Jan. 2-—This city can boastlngly say that it has one of tho oldest cyclists in this coun- try-i! not in any other country. At the age of -86,~John Fullerton, a resident of Montreal. is still an ardent bicycle rider. Alover of na-v ture and the great outdoors, Mr. Fullerton does his wheeling with the dual aim of seeing the country- side and for the healthful exercise dcrived from it.

For a dozen years past, each fine summer's day, John Fullerton, a retired civil servant, has been straddling his “bike"—racer type- and heading in one 0r another dir- cction out otthe city. Although not a native Montrealcr-he was born in‘ Quebec City-Mr. ‘Fullerton is probably better wicquainied with ths highways and by-ways on and off the island than the majority of homebreds. Peddalini through lanes and rural pathsihe has been able to get glimpses of natural ncmery which has beeninissed by most motorists.

Despite his advanced age, Mr. Fullerton is still in remarkably fine physical condition. Always vigor- ous. be feels actiyitly in his old ope is keeping him fit. He is fort-

but with limitations whose causes arc unknown, and which may help, when distovcreci, to understand hcw to curb these cancsrou; growths in man.

Thework in the unique garden was reported by Dr. Michael Le- vine, of Mont/eflore.

“The plants," he stud, “are plant- ed with substances which produce cancer in man and animals to learn if possible the mechankms of cancer formation in the compara- iively simple organisms. More than 2.000 experiments have boon made in three years.“ 80m": plants when torred prcduze iweilings, calluscs and finally tumors which in some fundamental respects rfsemble the human kind. But they never grow very large, they do not kill the plants... Something yet unknown checks them.

The response of the plants, Dr. Levine reported, appears to be a. "lunctiion of the host rather than of the agent,” that is the plant cells petain ultimate control over the growth. '

This is a striking parallel to the human immunity which some scientists profes: to see in heredity. Many humans are believed to es- cape cancer bocause their cells (“the “hosis" like the plants") 596m V? contain an inherited resistance.

BERLIN. Jan. 2—A statement Lashed by the official German news agency suggestrd to the

League of Nations tonight it give attention to the minority problems of its own members before con- coming itself with how Germany treats portions of its population.

The statement, a commentary on a nport of German immig- ration conditions by the American. James G. McDonald. who resigned as League High Commissioner for refugees from Germany Dec. 29, was sharply worded.

Replying to McDonald's urging that the League act to halt "per- semtion" of Jaws in Germany, the commentary raised the question of the condition of Germans living in other countries as minority cle- merits.

“Hundreds of thousands in the Great War in defeated countries, who found themselves without countries or without means of ex-. ‘istence aftcr the war, have no one in the world to take compassion on them," the statement asserted.

"German Opinion," it said. “is that the Licaatic has every cause to concern itself with how minorities and confessions are treated within League states before it claim the right to occupy itself with how Germany, from tho material nnd moral experience of her collapse, is rebuilding herself."

DAMIEN MACDONALD

The whole community of Little Pond was saddened by the news that little Damien, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Aeneas D. Mac- Donald had passed awcy on Wednesday evening, Dec. 18th. This darling child, three and. a half years old was the picture of health and was quite robust until last August when he suddenly began to grow pale and weak. His devoted parents sought the best medical advice available and finally he was treated in the City Hospital for acute pernicious anemia. To ' the treatment and care given there for more than a month he responded quickly and soon all his friends re- joiced with his parents that he would soon be well again. About a month previous to his death he suffered a. relapse of this fatal disease and despite the best medi- cal attention and contant nursing by his fond parents he peacefully passed away. God needed another angel to sing His pra ces.

Thus it was the litlc idol and light of the home was called away and although heartbroken his parents made their sacrifice nobly.

On Friday morning. December 20th ihs handsome little remains was followed by numerous mourn- ers to St. Frances do Sales Church, where the Mus of the Angels was sung by the pastor, my. F. R. Callaghan. D.D., after which they were tenderly laid beside a little brother who died in infancy. w. and ii/Lrs.

children, had sent ‘three of her youngsters off to school and the re- maining two, Arnold three, and, Richard, two, were in the kitchen keeping warm. Mrs. Hammer ‘ . stepped into the apartment of Mrs. Millie MoCue, at ii Wyeth ct. to pay a little bill. She was only away from the house a few minutes when she heard the screams of the child- ren. " »

Arnold cams running saying he set the house on fire and could nu put it out. The rear end of the house was now a. roaring furnace and the entire fiat filled with heavy smoke, but it did not stop Mrs. I-Iammersley fromplunging through the smoke in search of Richard, aged two.

Mrs. Hammersley stumbled and

fell in the kitchen but recovered herself at once and found Richard partly overcome on his way up- stairs. Coun Arthur Black appeared on the sceen about this time, went into the smoke filled hpuse and assisted Mrs. Hammersley out with the little boy. .

Crowded Off Aerial

As the aerial truck was turning

into Ferry St. from Salem St. two elevated cars were parked on the rail near Ferry Sh, making the pas- sing of the apparatus almost im- possible. mdderman Dennis H. Kelieher was riding on‘ the right running board and fearing that he was to be crushed against the pole "jumped. Landing on the icy side- walk he went onto his back and sustained a severe shaking up. The apparatus continued to the fire and later Kelleher was taken to the fire in the electricians wagon in charge of» Donald I. Cole and J. J. Hergin. After first old he was able to fight the fire.

Firemen Burned

While fighting the fire l-losemen James C. Cummings, M. J. Dempsey and F. F. Shultz all of Engine one, were burned about the hands-were given first aid treatment and later were treated by Dr. J. c. McCarthy. When Mrs. Hamme sley fell ir. the kitchen, she had a narrow escape from serious injury. She had her hair singed and also had some slight burns on the face and right hand- Little Arnold, who freely ad- mitted to Chief Doqling that he was playing with matches in the kitchen had a painful burn 0n the back of his right hand.

Mrs. Hammersley and the child- ren were cared for at the home of Mrs. Henry Della, 7 Wyeth St. Mrs. Jennie Swartvi, 9 Wyeth St. was at- tracted by the screaming, , looked out, saw the firs and phoned head- quarters. Box 4i, was sounded from the central station.

one of my treasured l tions is o1 the you of service which I spent in the Department of Militia. as cable censor durinﬂ the first twelve months of the Great War. ‘The complete story of censorship in Canada has yet to be written. When it sees tho light, if ever it, does, it will reveal a de- gree of fortitude and self-bbnega- tlon on the part of Press and peo- ple. I mention the newspapers first because no one, unless behind the scenes could do adequate justice to the splendid service which they rendered to Canada and to the Empire as o. whole. Four stories dealing with our censorship work are included.

__To military men, the sketches of our general oﬂicers commanding may appeal. There are many men connected with the force today who remember some of these im- portatioris from the Old Land. Sir Selby Smyth, who was the first oflicer appointed to the command of the Canadian Militia, had passed off the scene bciore my day. but with all his successors, from General Luard down to Iiord Dun- donald, the last Old Countryman to be appointed to this office, I was more or less acquainted. "Luard and the handkerchief" was s fam- iliar headline" in the newspapers in my early days. The story of this incident will show the younger generation that pomposlty often leads to a man's undoing.

With the assistance of Captain Bob Bartlett, the stalwart New- foundlander who was navigating oﬂicer of the SS. Roosevelt, which canted Peary and his party to the Arctic regions in i908, I have written a brief narrative of that memorable trip. Despite the opin- ion hc‘d in some quarters that Peary never reached the pole, I hold to the‘ contrary view. My prin- cipal authority is Bartlett himself. If anyone should know, he is that man.

The general articles in this series will speak for themselva. Some of them throw interesting sidelights on life in Ottawa during the par- liamentary session; others deal with topics which will be o.” inter- est to young and old.
