Special Dispatch to The Star, TORONTO, Ontario, April 25 (N.AAN.A).—The Ontario public is wondering what will be the next move of Oliva Dionne in his fight with the government of Ontario for the con- trol of the famous Dionne quintuplets. The controversy that has revolved around physicians’ reports on the bables’ recent head colds makes it apparent that, despite the recent act . o passed by the Ontario Legislature for an outside room with naming the five little girls wards of ul, shower and radio the government until they are 18 years old, their parents are deter- mined to keep on battling for the ot ishe noTEL privilege of caring for them.

It is significant, too, that Oliva Dionne made his move at & time when sentiment in Ontario is changing. Public Feeling Reversed. | In the early days when Dr. Allan R. | Dafoe was making heroic efforts to| keep the five infants alive, public feel- ing was entirely in favor of the plan | to shelter the little ones under the| | government’s wing. Now the feeling is developing that the Dionnes, hkei all other parents, should direct the| | lives of their children. Criticism is | | being directed at the recent decision | | of the government to maintain an offi- | cial guardianship until the quintuplets | are 18 years old. | | What the next step of the Dionne | | parents will be is problematical. It is pointed out that if the children; were removed to the adjoining Province of Quebec, the Ontario gov- ernment would have no jurisdiction. | PHONES D1 4868 -4860 Dine and Dance at CASINO MONTCLAIR TRICO Radiator Covers PREVE!
