A BIG BUSINESS NOW
THE DIONNE "QUINS."
MINISTER GUARDIAN WISHES
TO RETIRE
TORONTO, February 25.
The Minister of Public Welfare, Mr. D. A. Croll, has introduced a Bill in the Provincial Legislature to permit him to retire from the capacity of one o£ the guardians of the Dionne' quintuplets, and to substitute an Ontario official guardian.
"I hope and expect that now the parents will assume an increasingly larger responsibility, leading to the ultimate reuniting of the family," he said.
He explained that the' quintuplets had become a big business, and he had virtually to choose between the guardianship and his work for the Government.
He said that the babies now had 543,000 dollars invested in bonds, with contracts assuring, them an additional 200,000 dollars annually for the next two years. " ; ,
