VANCOUVER,
March

The
British
Columbia
Court
of
Appeals
yesterday
dismissed
an
appeal
of
Clift
Ford
of
London,
England,
from
a
Supreme
Court
decision
of
Mr.
Justice
Fisher
who
gave
judgment
in
favor
of
Stewart
P.
McMordie
in
the
sum
of
$1736
in
an
action
surrounding
the
Westholme
Theatre
at
Prince
Rupert.
The
plaintiffs
claim
was
based
on
expenditures
made
on
the
theatre
pursuant
to
an
order
of
the
provincial
fire
marshal.
The
judgment
was
varied
slightly.
If
the
parties
cannot
agree
upon
the
cost
of
certain
minor
changes
in
the
theatre,
the
matter
will
be
referred
to
the
registrar.
The
appeal
of
Mr.
Ford
was
argued
at
Victoria
early
in

when
Milton

for

said:

with
the
Canadian
Legation,
we
at
the
Embassy
were
in
the
most
constant
and
closest
touch
with
the
Canadian
Minister
and
his
staff.
Mr.
Vincent
Massey
and
I
became
almost
brothers
and
the
last
house
I
slept
In
In
Washington
was
the
Canadian
Legation.
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Massey
being
always
the
kindest
and
most
thoughtful
hosts
asked
us
to
be
their
guests
during
the
last
few
days
of
our
stay
while
the
Embassy
was
being
dismantled.
"At
the
last
indeed
I
wondered
how
we
could
ever
have
carried
on
is
long
as
we
did
in
Washington
)efore
a
Canadian
Legation
was
1et
up
to
look
after
Canadian
af-
developing
country
of
ten
million
inhabitants
having
a
frontier
of
3.000
miles
in
length
conterminous
with
the
one
to
which
I
was
accredited,
and
yet
without
any
direct
permanent
link
with
that
country.
When
I
look
back
on
the
situation
now,
it
makes
my
hair
stand
on
end
at
the
responsibility
of
the
position
and
the
thousand
and
one
chances
of
serious
misunderstanding
that
could
have
arls-
en,
The
fact
is
no
other
solution
la
.ywwic
possible.1
