'Henry' in speaking in the debate .on the ad'optio'n oif.'tlie Is'peec.e from the 'Throne in the !Ontario Leg- islature, laid down 'the (flat challenge to stake his reputation on sthe pur- chase. Premier Henry, along with W. E. N. Sinclair, Liberal i&piposition leader, santd IH. C. Nixon, _(Progressive leader, led Off't'he debate on 'Tuesday, the Prime Minister concluding his remarks on'Thursday. •This purchase, he declared, was made with -a view to acquiring the as- sets• 'for the benefit of the 'north coun- try. 'Diffi'cul'ties li'ad arisen in the :our- -chase, he admitted, that the 'failure oe 'the parent :Abitibi Company itself :had created indirectly the 'danger of the entire canyon 'develo'pmen't stopping and falling down. 'With the (proposed sale of all its power to the Hydro, he deetared tbke set-up of the Ontario Power Service Corporation was an admirable one iNothing would 'Nave been heard of the situation 'had the c'onporabion been aii•1e to go through .with its plans, 'but ',when ,eh'ey were. `forced to quit, the (Government nat- urally bece'me concerned' about the ,postibil•ity of the whole project going to ruin and waste. (Such an undertak- ing could nit be (left very long um - handled., without suffering severe and costly deterioration. "There is no (hole -in -the -corner ag- • moment in connection with bhe pur- chase at swivieh the Opposition hint," declared Premier Henry. "All the beformeteon is available for everyone to see. It' will be all brought out and nothing will be,,kelp't h'i•d:d'en." The IGoverlernen't, the Premier fur- ther explained, 'hes stepped into the place of the . Ontario Power Service ;Corporation, ha'vin'g prior security in the property in the 'sale of the bonds by the Hydro. The pro'p'erty will ulti- mately 'belong to the Province, while its advantages will be dealt 'w'it'h by 'the Premier at a later date. In connection with the (pr'o'posed emendmient to the Mortgagors and 'Purchasers. Act, which will' give re- lief to small house owners who find' themselves in difficulties, Premier Henry pointed out that the :Govern- ment had been inspired toward: the legislation :bythe ,number of reported foreclosures. 'Consequently the Gov- ernment had made a statement prior to Christmas with a view to offsetting these. "We sought to have 'mortgagees hold off :from 'foreclosing because any actiouu they take might he rendered null end void by any (legislation which we might pass later," declared Prem- ier. Henry. "There was no 'intention ai interfering with ordinary lo'ans.tlWe ,felt that something should be intimat- ed to the p'ubl'ic, leaving the Aibtorney (General to prepare details of 'the bill, because of !the diffi''cutllt situation ob- taining among 'mortgagors." Premier Henry ,expressed pleasure with the English (peo'p'le who had w'in'e out from the Mother country to establish their own ''loiter 'here, :work ing to build up a eub's'tanitial equity in property,,that they 'wo'uld ultimate ly call their own: ' "'When peo'p'le like that found thernbselves 'ia • difficulties," .declared Premier Henry, "naturally it gave me :concern.

MARK BET BY SIR M(ALC'OILIM 'CAMPBELL British Racer Streaks Over Daytona Course to Smash Record. 'Daytowa Beach, Florida. — Great Britain's d'om'inance in the neatm ,of speed was skyrocketed to new heights on. February .22nd by Sir Mal- colm Campbell in a daring race against time along the ocean speed- way :here. IIn two' blistering runs over the hard -packed. beach, ,'t'he 48-year=o'l'd driver ,streaked to a .new world auto- mobile 'speed mark of 271110 miles an hour over a measured mile route to climax a quarter of a century of re- cord' smashing achievements. IHe 'also establ'is'hed a new record of 272.463 miles an hour over one 'kilo- metre on the same 'trials, and 297.295 over a (five-leil:o'metre course. Driving a long, streamlined Blue- bird car, equipped with a 2;500 horse- power airplane meteor, ,Sir Malcolm clipped .94 of a second off his rwn previous record; of 25$.968 for bhe! mile and increased the mark by 118)1140 Miles en hour., 'On 'hfis first run the British driver !O,attained the astowding speed of 278.- '556 :miles' an hour as he roared over 'the beach, paralleled on one side by a pounding surf and on the other by high, irregular sand dunes from which thousands of s,pectabors looked on. His time for' the mni'le on that run was 23.16 secon•dis. (His second trial, 'made in the oppo- site direction,was clocked' at 18.30 seconds $or a speed of 270.626 miles an "hour. 'Retur'nin'g to the grandstand after his trials to be greeted by .cheering s'peotators, Sir M:alcalm ,characterized leis race as The worst ride 'I ever had in my life.". The beachwas bu'ntlpy, the visibil- ity lead and on top of that he 'wet•' forced to steer the bouncing car over the course with only one hand, ars he had injured the other a week ago in making 'repairs to (the machine. . "The beach ,was so rough," the driv- er declared,e'th'at on several occas ions I thought 'I wins gone. I'f 3 had n'o't been able to control ,bhe ear so nnaghilficenitly, I should have landed either in the sand dunes or in the ocean. "The visibility was very, very 'bad, and my car was sneaking or zigzagging, all over the beach, IFirsit I was heed- ing for the send dunes and the next instant I was heading for' the sea. On bath my run's 'stere were times when 1I could see no distance what- ever ahead. I just: had to guess and truslt to luck. "It was one of the 'worst feelings you can inalagine. I:had to correct my course rapidly and so many tunes' that I utas coitsltantly in ,danger ,of losing control of the car. 'Once I hit ,two of the guide flags staked oue on the outer :sideof the couese to 'help me steer, and I smash- ed then' to splinters; Frankly, it was the roughest ride iI' ever 'load, ansl ,2'911 multi 1 bell that 50 times. '' Oa P y 1'9271 mP Sir Malcolm said Inc'was satisfied 19271 , ISegrave with 'the perforinance of his car un- 192'$Oamp.bell dor .such adverse ,con'dif]'ou's, but 'he 1928 Keech was confident that given a better 1929 Segrave beach and good visibility, he could 193111 Campbell place the record much "higher. f 11931a :Campbell He would molt eo'nnmut 'leimsellf as to 1933 :Campbell the ina:dimtem .speed the car canat- tain,bult he indicated ets'pealc is faster than 300 miles en hour. Concerning his speed in the race, Sir:Malcolm said ascii on his. first run, ,his engine speeds indicator recorded' between 3,600 and 3,700 rvloluttiotns per errinulte, which he estim'ated should' :have given him a land speed of .approximately 330 miles ,an Near.` Because his oar bumped so much over the rough beach, the wheels were spinning in !the air .much' of the time, o thtat his actual forwa'r'd speed was redluced oontaiderab'1y under what his instruunentbs shoiwed. 'The same was true Ort his se'cond run when Inc'esti- mated his engine speed at 310 miles an hour. t&'oilw'wing the trials, Sir M'aleolm's tiles bore route evidence of the !ter- rific punishment they received. They were cut. badly by sea shell's, particul- arly those on the rear driving wheels. Completing his tfirslt run at tthe south ends of the course, )sir ,M'a'lcolen chang- ed tires rather than 'risk racing on the same ones again. 'There was scarcely a spot 'om the outer side of the tires that was not littered .with cuts'. Some of them were a. quarter of an inch deep and extended through the rub- ber into the 12 -ply cotton cords. .Im some 'places the rubber had ben en- tirely stripped away, 'Sir M'al'colin jokin'gl'y referred. to the trials as "just a fast test run." Descri'bi'ng hisexperience, he said: "From. the very start my 'arm was Matting me badly. an fact, it was 'all I could do to shift gears. Then when I got up fairly good Speed, I bumped' along over the 'course like a pea in a pot.
