They were acting deliberately, contrary to warnings issued by Police Constable John Cowan the Sunday before to close their ■businesses in accordance with Sunday Blue Laws. Chief Cowan toured the resort Sunday, noting what rides and amusements were open and who was operating them. He sent in his report to Crown Attorney Glen Hayes, Seaforth The large holiday crowd was not restricted in its pleasure hunt, All the amusement centres were open for business and the people flocked to patronize them. Ctiief 'Cowan toured the amusements at night and warn ed them that he had information against them and would send it to the Crown Attorney. Crown Attorney Hays was reached Wednesday and he said he had received the report. He had sent his report to the attor ney-general. The nature of the report could not be disclosed but Hays said the matter was receiv ing the “proper consideration”. Crown Attorney Hays com mented on the situation Sunday. The Lord’s Day Act is a federal one, and the consent of the pro vincial attorney general is re quired before prosecution can be started, he said. He pointed out that the Act does not provide for the closing down of rides and amusements but only for prose cution and fines. Some persons asked why operators were given one week’s grace after the warning last week. Mr. Hays continued. He said that it was only on a Sun day that police could determine who should be warned, and the week’s grace was considered the fairest way. The amusements at Grand Bend catered to a huge Labor Day week-end throng which operators thought was bigger than that of Civic Holley. There was adequate police pro tection as provincial constables Bank Staff Changes j Mr, Grant H.
