S, C. Tweed, hLP.P. for North Waterloo, in a letter to Premier Guorite S. Henry, calls attention to the fact that there is a limit to the amount of sewer and watermain construction that can be undertaken by the municipalities, and suggests that provincial grunts be made tu- wards erection of public. buildings, schools particularly, as um- means at increasing employment. Following up his advocacy of the six-hour day last Spring, for the spreading out of available employ, mrnt. Mr. Tweed urges the premier Lo ml] the principal manufacturers of the province into conference with a view to introducing the shorter workday so as to create more jobs.

The inquest into the death of Charles Prank Houston, Margaret Avenue, Kitchener, who died when his cur was demolished by a Grand River Railway train at Centreville on August tst, revealed new angles in the ease as evidence wan sub- mitted. Aceurding to Dr. A. T. Turner who performed the post- mortem, there was nu evidence of any fracture or internal injury serious enough to have caused death, The explanation of the cause of death advanced by Dr. Turner was that the unfortunate man suffocated while pinned beneath the car, while his rescuers sought to lift the vehicle which was held down by a steel guy wire from at nearby post which was entangled in the rear bumper of the cm. The pressure of the machine on Houston's chest pre- vented breathing, causing death by sutrucution. Although the cnruner's jury absolved the train crew ul' all blame, they strongly recommended the installation of visible warnings and signals at the ctrosshur, _ Evidence was when by Dr. Turner, raiway crew nnd motorcycle oltirvr, and J.
