QUESTION OF HOTELS WAS DISCUSSED Hotel Tourisst Committee of Ontario Legislature Visits Kitchenerâ€"Suggestions The Hotel Tourist Commiltee of the Ontario Legislature heid a Bitâ€" ting at Kitchener last week, in the City Hall, at which members of the City Council, Board of Trade, Kiâ€" wanis Club and other bodies were present, as well as representatives from Waterloo. Chairman Watson and Secretary Lane were the members of the comâ€" mittes .n attendance. | The chairâ€" mou in opesing the meeting stated that the committee had been apâ€" pointed by the Legislature to invesâ€" tigate the problem of the hotels and study the tourist question, with the object of making suggestions to imâ€" prove the hotel accommodation, parâ€" ticularly in the smaller towns, and encouraging tourists to visit the province. He further said that a publiclty department of the govern: ment, to advertise the province had been suggested, and that roads should be bulletined, and moving pictures and wall pictures used in public places. He stated that $57,â€" 000,000 had been expended in Canaâ€" da in 1921 by tourists, emphasizing the value of good roads. Among those who offered suggesâ€" tions were H. Lincoln of the Kiâ€" wanis Club; Aid. L. E. Hagedorn, Dr. K. D. Helst, Dr. Wells of Waterloo, 8. B. Frey, C. H. Mills, W. T. Sass. President of the Board of Trade, Mayor Greb, Ald. Bucher, Councillor Reitrel and A. Bechtel of Waterloo, Ald. Harttung and N. Asmussen, M.P.P., of Kitchener. Several of the speakers were of the opinion that the only solution was. a beer license and a wine lcense was also suggested. Mr. Asmassen said there. were emly two ways to deal with the questionâ€"either assist the hotelâ€" man by a direct levy or special asâ€" sessment, which he said was not desirable on genaral principles, or give hotels special privileges, such as selling five per cant. beer. Chairman Watson in conclusion aaked whether it was deairable to get back to the old system. Should they not, he asked, be put on a payâ€" ing besis without involving the 1 quor license question. . He said it would be bad business to give spe olal privileges suggested, so that a man could moot his losses by gains Mr. Watson in his reference to the hotel question said the matter had been complicated by the changâ€" ed conditions of the past six years, the O.T.A. having lessened the reâ€" venue. In the small town particuâ€" larly a real problem confronted the hotel keeper, and the question was whether the governiment would be justified in giving assistance on the ground that they filled a public need. The committee, he said, was open for suggeations. in his motor car, and being informâ€" ed of the accident, he immediately removed his glothes and jumped in to the rescue. In a short time he recovered the body of Bossenberry, which was taken to the garage. He then went in search of Suider‘s body. Bossenberry appeared to be alive, sccording to Eby, when he was carâ€" ried into the garage. Dr. L. R. Shields and Dr. Hagmeier, together with Fire Chief Guerin, arrived on the scene about ten minutes after the body was rescued. The lungâ€" motor was used for about half an hour, but life was extinct. The body of Snider was found in about an hour, after about two feet of water had been let out of the dam, George Reinhart of Breslau, rescuing the body near the spot where Mr. Williams found the body cf Bossenberry. NO HEAD YET OF BOARD After the arrival of Coroner Lackâ€" ner a jury was empannelled, who viewed the remains, after which they were removed to Schreiter‘s underâ€" taking parlors. The young Snider lad was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Sniâ€" der. The lad Bossenberry leaves his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Bosâ€" senberry, six brothers and three sisâ€" ters, viz., Charles, Clayton, Emerson, A despatch says that Premier Greenfield and H. W. Wood, Presiâ€" dent of the Canadian Council of Agâ€" riculture, are both back in Calgary, but neither will raise the veil of sccrecy that hides the Canadian Wheat Board from public gaze. Position Offered to Several But Declined by Themâ€"Still Unorganized Mr. Wood did say, however, that the report from Ottawa that he had refused the chairmanship was not true. He would not say whether he had or not, or whether he would or would not, but Ottawa did not know and | there was _ nothing . official about it. Each refers the reporter to the other. ‘‘There are wellâ€"founded reports in Winnipeg that Premier Greenfield and others who are endeavoring to organize the Wheat Board offered the chairmanship to two Winnipeg men, whose names so far have not been mentioned in this connection," the Free Press said this week. "These men are both specialized in the grain busness, and would probâ€" ably be able to make the board just as much of a success as any other men whose names have been previâ€" ously mentioned for the chairmanâ€" ship. But, like James Stewart and F. W. Riddell, these men have reâ€" fused to risk their reputations in asâ€" suming control of a board that they firmly believe cannot function sucâ€" cessfully, and have therefore ‘ecl\n- ed the offered positions. ‘The chairmanship of the Whea!; Board has now been offered to flvel or six different men, and, so far as can be distinctly learned, ail have practically refused to have anything to do with it. It is now beginning to dawn upon everyone interested ln‘ the marketing of the Western Canaâ€" dian wheat crop that there will be no Wheat Board this year. "In the meantitme the market situâ€" ation is anything but sat!s(actory‘} The business of selling wheat tsi practically at a standstill. Prices are falling daily on the local market and the weakness here is now being reflected to some extent on the Chiâ€" cago and other American markets. A prominent wheat exporter stated on Saturday that a drop in prices of fully 10 cents was directly attributâ€" able to the uncertainty of wheher there would be a wheat Board or not."

A further adâ€" vantage to the investor will be that, while the maturing boftds will be retired on December 1, 1922, and the interest coupon of that date will be paid, the new bonds to be delivered in exchange will be dated November 1 and will thus carry one months‘ accrued interest.
