Tills money wa.s used in bullrfln h hotel. Witness, however, was "not in on these other fires. Years after the setting of the fire, according to Sallce's evidence, his conscience had troubled him and he confessed to the police. He denied that he was Jealous of Bel-licini but stated that they were menus an trre time. While he had been gassed overseas and had bceir i wounded in the head and his health was poor, his mind was quite I clear. He had set the fire because he had been urged to do so by Belliclni and because he did not want ;inc mortgage on his farm to be lorcciosed. Got $10,000 Insurance Colonel R. L. Gale, at the opening of the Saturday morning .pinn I gave evidence of having written lwncies or insurance on the hotel. He saw the building which he considered might be worth twelve thousand dollars. The sum of $15,000 had been applied for. Later he turned over to Belliclni a check for $10,000 which was paid into an account at the Royal Bank He understood that Belliclni could not get Insurance elsewhere. He had not solicited the bus! it had been brought to him. Hp rim not think $15,000 on the building would be over-insurance. 11.

The last witness for tire crown was Andrew Thompson, land registrar in Prince Rupert, through whom was entered a copy of the mortgage between Belliclni and Salice on the latter's farm and papers in regard to land owned by Belliclni at Houston. Defence Evidence When the trial resumed Saturday afternoon H. H. Griffin summarized the evidence on behalf of the defence, discrediting the evidence of the rival hotel-keeper and his daughter and defending the accused In the matter of possible building defects, reminding the Jury that his client was not on trial for: breaking' building resula tlbns. Referring to the evidence of Salice, he. suggested that, as he hid been injured during the war ana was proven to have had a grudge against Belliclni. his evi dence was not reliable. At least part of the evidence had been com- batted by Mrs. Belliclni. The Delco plant which had been placed in the building had not been removed. In dicating that the fire had not been deliberately planned. T. W. Brown, lor the crown, read the agreement which had been made by accused to sell the property for more than the' Insurance money, Intimating that the agreement was such that it had no effect on the case. Mr. Brown said the ciown claimed that the erection, insuring and burning were all part of a scheme to defraud and were one transaction. He drew attention to the rate of interest charged Salice. showing that, although a considerable sum had been paid on It, the total amount was not much reduced. He urged (hat, while "the crown did not wish to secure convictions, they THE DAILY NEWS Monday wished to have the guilty punished. His Lordship explained the law In the case, pointing out that, If there was no corroboration, it was a very serious matter to convict However, ' it was possible to do so. He ana-; lyzed different phases of the evl-J dence and suggested that the act of the accused in giving Salice a new agreement for a considerably reduced sum and at half, the former amount of interest might possibly be looked upon as corrobora tion. Wlille the pay for committing j the crime was to be the cancelling of the mortgage, the reduction of the amount might have been looked upon as pay In view of the fact that the accused had told Salice that he had not collected all the j insurance money. This document, seemed to have be(yi signed by the accused. There was danger In using the alleged flimsy construction of the building as corroborative evidence implying guilt. Robert C.

We Must Not Lose HART jji in all Canada is the record cjf achievement established by the Honourable John Hart, as Minister of Finance for British Columbia. Auming office first under the late Premier Brewster, Mr. Hart , found the finances of the province in a deplorable condition. Bank credit was gone and British Columbia was unable to meet its . issued cheques. During his tenure of office, Mr. Hart stabilized the credit of the province and left the finances in excellent condition. Again taking the Ministry of Finance under the Honourable T. D. Pattullo's leadership, Mr". Hart frund the Tolmie administration had not only completely destroyed the financial credit of the province but had actually issued cheques to THE AMOUNT OF $1,009,509 WITHOUT FUNDS WITH WHICH TO COVER. The bank refused to extend credit for payment. In financial circles it was freely predicted that British Columbia would have to repudiate its indebtedness or go into bankruptcy, - Bernice Palmer says . . . Hollywood hair stylists 'predict an epidemic of small mustaches. So many male stars (naturally) have worn them in period pictures lately and, ufler all the effort of raising them, have refused to give up their masculine adornment, that others, taking courage, are following suit. Clark Gable. Jack Oakie (hasn't he got fnt lately?) William l'owell, Did Powell and Michael Whalen are among the well-known mustache addicts, and Fred Fredericks movie hair stylist, personally applauds the trend.

Wilson, presi-dent of the Royal Bank of Can-ada, British Columbia now leads all Canada in the march to recovery. IT IS WELL TO REMEMBER THESE FACTS AND THAT BRITISH COLUMBIA IS THE ONLY PLACE IN NORTH AMERICA WHERE TAXATION HAS NOT BEEN IN-CREASED, BUT ACTUALLY REDUCED TO THOSE LEAST ABLE TO PAY. And, while other provinces still flounder in financial difficulties, or wallow in political experiment, British Columbia is steadily marching toward complete recov ery. 1 Sane, Stable, Progressive Government VOTE LIBERAL Tonight Starts the Greatest Local Event Smce our Corona tt Celebration . . .
