(Toronto ' Globe,)
Andy }lad Good intentions, But 'He

ing 141s ;Figures ' on R:iilwilTe.
To Andrew Hicks's feet is directly
attributable Ontario's loss in not
having had from Hon. T. A. Crerar,
Progressive Leader, a discussion of
Canadian railway problems.
When the 11.F.0. member of South,
Huron essayed at Wingham to get
into a,• Dear' seat, of a Ford car he
found that there was no room for
his feet and Hon, Mr.. Crerar's -rile
Intending to "take care of it, Mr.
Hicks 'temporarily moved the grip
tothe sidewalk, but subsequently
forgot all about it.
When the party drove off the<.gril:.
remained just where lir. Flicks had
left it, and Mr. Hicks' feet reposed
in comparative roomy comfort in the
rear seat of the Ford. In the grip
were Hon. Mr. Crerar's papers eon-
taining railway statistics with which
he probably would have dealt at
Shelburne. The grip caught up again
with the Progressive Leader at To-
ronto on Saturday night.
