Holmes here on Tuesday, as he brought down two convictions against Irwin Prouse of Mount Elgin,,under Ontario De- partment of Transport regulations. One fines was $50 and costs for operating a vehicle without a PCP licence. The other was for $20 for carrying an excessive load on a tractor trailer transport. Mr. Holmes warned Prouse that John Hanna Reports From Toronto Once again the Ontario Legis- lature has resumed its formal du- ties ,,Its the Legislative Authority of Ontario. On Tuesday, January 27, His honour Lieutenant-Gov- ernor J. Keiller MacKay officiated amidst the usual ceremony at the opening of the fifth session of the 25th Legislature. Of the 98 House members, 84 are Progressive Conservative sup- porters of Premier Frost's Gov- ernment, 11 back up Liberal Op- position Leader Wintermeyer and there are three CCF members. During the past year there have been six by-elections and in every case a Conservative member has been returned to the House. Since the last session there have been extensive changes in cabinet personnel. Following the natural gas enquiry, two ministers resign- ed and three back benchers were appointed ministers of the Crown. At the end of 1958, the dean of the Conservative party and former premier and minister of agricul- ture Col. Thomas L. Kennedy, an- nounced his retirement from poli- tics. This was followed shortly thereafter by the resignation from Cabinet of the Honourable George H Dunbar, who for many decades has been a good friend of all the people of. Ontario. While the de- parting of these senior and ex- perienced members of the govern- ment is a serious loss to the gov- ernment, Premier Frost, by his re- cent appointments of younger and active men to his Cabinet, has built up what is acknowledged to be a very effective and powerful team. It is anticipated that the ses- sion will be a long ohe with con- siderable legislation to be enact- ed and a very determined „effort by the opposition to make or find issues for the general election which every one anticiates in 1959. -John W. Hanna, M,P.P, if he continued to operate his trucks without proper licenses, he could expect to have penalties "go the limits' in the case of future convictions. , Prouse 'has a record of 15 con- victions under the act, including the two in Clinton Court on Tues- day. Magistrate Holmes comment- ed that at least one other con- viction which he had made was not included On the. record as pre- sented. Evidence was heard from P. J. Kirwirx, RR 2, Mount Elgin, dri- ver of the vehicle; A. G. Lackie, Kitchener, inspector for the West- ern Ontario Division of the De- partment of Transport and In- spectors J. R. Jackson, Chatham and E. Stevens, Orillia. Prouse was defended by J. C. McBride, Ingersoll, while Crown Attorney Glenn Hays, Goderich, prosecuted. Since the weigh scales installed by the provincial government near Holmesville have, been in opera- tion, inspectors have been on duty at various periods of the day. When the scales are open, all com- mercial vehicles must' pass over them. Violations of weight res- trictions are noted at that time, and charges may be laid by the department. The Prouse vehicle was trans- porting 22 tons of grain from the elevators in Goderich, Evidence showed that at the Holmesville scale gross weight was 71,500 lbs,, plus an allowance of 400 lbs. for accumulated snow, ice and sand on the undercarriage of the truck. Permissable weight for the ve- hicle as provided for by licenses is 68,000 lbs., resulting in an over- weight of 3,500 lbs. Specified weight for the vehicle was 24,300 pounds (tractor and trailer com- bined), This, plus the 22 tons of grain would have been over the perinissable weight, by about 300 lbs. However the government seal- es weighed the equipment and load at 3,200 pounds more than that. Explanation given by defence was that the accumulated snow and ,ice was a good deal more than 400 pounds. The crown suggested that the increase was due to in- creased equipment added to the truck, such at Saddle tanks, gaso- line, weight of driver, augur, etc, There are three weigh scales in Inspector LaCkie's department, 'MUMMY; MAW= :5, 1901 Girls Win Ones 'Lose One In Wingham Basketball Duo. in a WOSS.A. girls basketball. doubleheader in Winghana ary 28, the best team defeated Clinton 16-14 on a field goal by Merriam .1V1eKihbon with . 40 sec--• onds remaining in the senior game. while Clinton took the .garne. by a 19-12 verdict, MeKibbon led Wingham seniors with nine points.
