'1�hti g Memorable Events in fl higiorq oft* E aph 63'- Charles Cian MARCH 24—FIRTH OF LORD LAWRENCE. One hundred and seventeen years ago, on the 24th March, 1811, John Laird Mair Lawrence, who was des- tined to 'become one of the most 111- ustrius of our great India nadminis- i trator s, was born at Richmond in the English county of Yorkshire. His father was a distinguished sol- dier of Irish extraction and was a great friend of the Duke of Welling- ton, while his mother was a descend- ant of John Knox, the Scotch reform- er. John Lawrence was educated at Foyle College in Ireland and at Haileybury College in England, and at the age of 17 he was sent out to India, where he had secured a post in the civil service of the East India Company through the influence of a relative of his mother. ' Soon after his arrival in the East he became assistant, to the resident at Delhi, and a few years later he was appointed collector of land re- venue. and a magistrate, gaining a high reputation for the courage and energy which he displayed in carry- ing out his official duties in ono of the most tuilbulent districts of In- dia. His invaluable organising work during the progress of the first Sakti War in 1846 helped materially to secure the victory at the Battle of Sobraon, and his services were re- warded with the important appoint- ment es commissioner of the newly - annexed territory. He soon secured a remarkable control over the con- quered people, and when the second Sikh War broke out, three years later the native troops which had been raised and trained by Lawrence play- ed an important part in bringing the campaign to a speedy and successful conclusion. The ending of the second Sikh war resulted in the Punjab being convert- ed into a British province, of which Lawrence was given the appointment of chief coinmisisoner. During the next seven years he effected the es- tablishment of law and order through out the province, and he also secur- ed the affection and loyalty of the people over whom he ruled, so that on the outbreak of the Great Mutiny in 1857 he was able to raise a native army of 59,000 men, which [jot only prevented the revolt from spreading into the Punjab, but was largely re- sponsible for the capture of Delhi from the rebels, a circumstance which undoubtedly broke' the back of the mutiny and was the beginning or the end. " 3 Lawrence was generally regarded as the saviour of India, and his great services were rewarded with a baronetcy, the thanks of Parlia- ment and a substantial addition to his pension. He returned to England in 1S59, where he was made a privy councillor and a member of the new- ly -created Indian Council. On the death of Lord Elgin, five year,- later, he was appointed Viceroy of India, and his five years of office were re- markable for their financial pruden- ce and the many beneficial measures which were instituted for the educa- tion and the welfare of the native population. On his final return hone in 1869 he was elevated to the peerage, and he then became the first chairman of the London School Board, an office which he held for the next ten years. He died on the 27th of June 1879 at the age of 69, and he was laid to rest in Westminister Abbey by the side of his old comrades of Mutiny days—Lord Clyde and Gen, James Outram. Two of Lorca Lawrence's brothers also distinguished themselves in In- dia, namely—Sir George and Sir Henry,. the latter being one of the outstanding figures in the memorable siege of Lucknow.

Other amendments to the Act coir i (l large ge vans, trucks and other vel isles extending t' or more than 8 incites across a highway to carry a green light in front and one extra 1 red tail light; outlaw spotlights; nee- 1 essiiate a dual braking system on f all motor vehicles; and give highway ' traffic officers authority to reduce ' loads on trucks which are found to 1 be carrying more than their legal 1 maximum. The bill was given second reading and was applauded by all parties in the House, indicating that there will be little, if any, objection raised when it is in committee and that it will become law. Mr. Henry explained the provision calling for additional lights on large vehicles as being necessary to the protection of motorists at night. At present, he pointed out, an automo- bile driver, guided only by the head- light of a large van, has no way of knowing, until he is close to the veh- iel,e, how much of the road it occup- ies. Mentions Ford Brakes. Speaking of the dual braking plan, he said the new Ford cars as origi- nally designed would not have come within this requirement, but the car has been altered to nreet the provi- sion. The spotlight was being abolished, he explained, because 'Smart Alecks' had abused the privilege. Ditch lights, which may be attached be- neath the right front fender or the right front headlight, are still permis- sible. Following are tate new -provisions: "Every motor vehicle having a width at any part in excess of 80 inches shall carry two clearance lamps or reflectors, of a design approved by the department, on the left side of such vehicles; one of which shall be located at the front of the vehicle and shall display or reflect a green light and the rear of the vehicle and shall display or reflect a red light.
