In a non -jury meter damage action
of Edmund Matthew, laborer, Sea
forth, against John Steins, trucker of
Kitchener, damages of $1,537.60 were
awarded the plaintiff and costs of
the court. Interlocutory judgment
had been filed and only assessment
of damages was asked of the court.
The action arose out of au accident
on the highway between Walton and
Seaforth on July 26, 1947, when, ve-
hicles were in collision in which the
plaintiff suffered head ' and arin-
juries. Mr. Hays, of McConnell
nnell &
Hays, Seaforth,, was' counsel for the
plaintiff. No defence was offered.
The civil jury'action action of Cox et al.
vs. Dennis was transferred by con -
writ to the next high court sitting.
In his instructions to the grand
jury on the murder. charge, the judge
said that homicide is the killing of
,t human being directly or indirectly
by another andis either culpable or
not "culpable. Culpable homicide is
murder if the offender means to cause
death of the person killed, or if he
does an act likely to cause death
and is reckless whether death en-
sues or not.
_Manslaughter was defined as un-
willing or unintentional killing, The

Rape' was described as an act of
a man having carnal knowledge of a
woman not his wife without her con-
sent, or with the consent obtained by
threats or fear of bodily harm. True
consent- involves an active will and
a knowledge of what is to be done.
In his observations preceding his
instructions on the law, Mr. Justice
Schoeder said: "In our democra-
tic system we pride ourselves- upon
the fact that we are guided and gov-
erned by good laws in harmony with
the people and the spirit of the
times."
The administration or the law must
be independent, he pointed out, say-
ing he approved of the retention of
the grand jury system in Ontario
though it has been discontinued in
some provinces. It is hallowed by
tradition, calling citizens of the
country to assist and take a direct
and active part in the administra-
tion of justice, which is the very
cornerstone of civilization. The sav-
ing of time and money is a paltry
considel•ation compared with the ben-
efits."
"In these days, when old and hal-
lowed institutions are being assailed
on every band, it is my opinion they
should not be abolished. Service on
the grand jury and the petit jury is
a high privilege, and Ave must make
our desire known to have of con-
tinued,"

THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXTRACT FROM A LETTER ISSUED BY THE
SECRETARY OF..H.E.P.C., DATED 15th DECEMBER, 1997:
THE HYDRO -ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION
OF ONTARIO
Office of the Secretary 620 University Avenue, Toronto 2
December 15, 1947.

SOUTHERN ONTARIO
Re: Power Conservation
Although there has been a substantial reduction in
the demand of power, arising out of voluntary conserva-
tion and the application of restrictions, heavy cuts are
still being made in the delivery of power to industry.
Moreover, system power resources have recently been
reduced owing to lack of rainfall causing poor water con-
ditions.
Winter has now set in and little improvement can be
expected in the replenishment of water storages, with
the result that system power resources .may be expected
to PROGRESSIVELY DETERIORATE throughout the
remainder of the wider. In these circumstances, it is
evident that unless ADDITIONAL VOLUNTARY SAV-
INGS can be obtained the Commission will be obliged to
ORDER Municipalities to REDUCE their load from time
to time by as much as 15 PER CENT. OR POSSIBLY
MORE.
Yours truly,
OSBORNE MITCHELL,
Secretary.
