(C.P. By Guardian's special Wire) L . N. 8., Mill! 3-A burst of gunfire that smashed into a fleeing rum-runners whcelhousc and kilbed its hclmsman was found by a sr's jury hem tonight to have come "apparently” from a rifle in the hands of the captain‘ of a pursuing Royal Canadian Mounted Police patrol boat.

As the Jury sat over the body oi William Tanner, 30, Captain J.-C. Jelly of the cutter Acadiah had tutiflsed to pumpinl five bullets through the darkness toward Tan- ner's liquor-laden motorboat in a chess last night over heavy seas oif this port.

KILL INSTANTLY

One nickel-jacketed bullet, at least, tore through the youthful Nova section's brain. killing him instantly. A second man on the powerful little craft-Alton Mason --escaped unscathed Rs his ship- mate and co-cwner died under the fire that the R. C. M. P. skipper described as aimed at tho boat's cargo in an attempt to scare her crow into surrrnder.

They came til shoretogcther early Willy. Tsnncr u pied on the floor of his pilot house, Mason un- der arrest on a customs sot charge. He had stopped the ship as Tan- ner dropped, and the officers seiscd her with her cargo of 108 cases and kegs of liquor a; she wsllowed in Lunenburg Bay's swell, just in- side Cross Island. .

The spot of the actual seizure was norfar from the area where the cutter had first sighted the un- named motorboat making contact --accordlng to Captain Kelly-with I Sllllleoted larger rum-runner less than three miles from shore. A beam from the Acadiank search- lioht had picked out the c:aft soon after the patrol boat reached the scene from Halifax.

A bare 26 or 30 yards awsv. the police ship hailed them. N0 answer- ing hail came from the suspected ships, but the motorboltfl; convert- ed automobile vngne roared into

OTTAWA, May QL-Following on ancient and stately ritual the Earl of Bessborougli today presided at the investltura oi knighthoods and other honors on Canadians nanied in the New Year's houo.s list for 1035 at Government House.

The R. C. M. P: chaser swung about in pursuit. and soon a volley rattled off from the machine gun in her bow as a warning to the cs- caping ship to stop. But the mot- orboat, all lights doused, went on, and the machine gun jammed.

Captain Kelly. according to his evidence at the inquest, then picked up a .303 rifle and fired after the rum ship, intending to send a bui- lnt into one of the kegs piled in her well. His hope was to “explode” one of them and frighten the boat's crew into stopping.

Soon after the Captain had fired. the ship swerved erezily and than stopped. At the engine controls, Mason had shut off power as he saw his panion fall. Whether shot by rifle or machine gun bul- let. he must have died instantly, for the top of his head was almost shot away,

OTTAWA, May 3 — Compulsofi‘ pasteurization of milk offered for sale in Canadian towns and cities was advocated by the national re- search council's associate committee on tuberculosis research in a reso- lution adopted heze today.

The committee declared that it had been amply lcmonstrnted in the work carried on under the aus- pices of the National Rrsearch Council as wcll as in other insti- tutions that the pasteurization of milk will destroy all bacteria harm- ful to man (and which may be conveyed by milk) and particularly the organisms oi tuberculosis. septic save throat, nndulant fever and typhoid fever."

‘Prospects to Be Heard From.

Y. M. c. A. campaign workers 1m to last night made returns to- talling $4,028 with a number of p. pacts yetto be heard from. Reports turned in to data include group contributions from within the Association of fifty dollars from the Y's Menettes, fifty dollars from the Hi-Y Grads, one hund- red and eighty-five dollars from the Y's Men's Club and two hund- red dollars from the Ladies Aux- iliary. A significant feature of the campaign and one which contrib- uted iargely to its success was the thorough and complete canvass of each team on the cards allocated to it, The organization oi approx- imately seventy-five workers set up by Lhe general chairman, P. W. Turner and his executive commit- tee, was painstaking in all details of the campaign plan and worked loyally throughout the period of the canvass. The appeal of the Y. M. C. A. was met with by a mos: hearty response on the part of our citizens generally and in the light of present business con- ditions the success of the campaign is particularly significant. The campaign leader in commenting on the success oi the canvass said:

_ llambleton Canadian Press Staff Writer)

LONDON. lVLay- 3-"There is little to complain of, and not a little to approve, in the Prime Minister's account yesterday of British foreign policy." said The Manchester Guardian today. And this note of general-if sometimes qualified approval-runs through all British press comment on the MacDonald statement in the Com- mans. ‘

“The statement in itself." said The Times. "shows that the British Government at least has not out c! the Versailles habit of mind. It may be that soon there will be a better chance of arms limitation than ever before. Hitler has in any case declared himself in favor oi the limitation and supervision od armaments. -

Hopeful Note

"And the Prime Minister ended on a hopeful hole. He sees ‘chances of appeasement‘ and he means to take them."

The Dally Herald, Labor oppos- ition crgan, said “it was s. blessed relief to find the Prime Minister yesterday. adopting a more dis- bassionate attitude towards Ger- many. Firmness towards her is understandable and perhaps neces- sary. But one-sided lecturing such as in these last few weeks was pro- ducing a rapid detrioration in Europe, which yesterdays change of tone will help to arrest. . ~

“We cannot have peace without responsibility. We cannot have peace without declaring in ad- vance that we will in conjunction with all other well-intentioned nations protect the peace. If we make that declaration, if we make that commitment, we can make aggression unthinkable. We can have peace, and not another Brit- ish life need be lost in war."
