Dionnes Fight
Gov’t To Retain
Control Quints
PARENTS CLAIM THEY ARE
KEPT AWAY FROM THEIR
OWN CHILDREN
WINDSOR, Ontario Province,Can
ada—Parents of the famous Diinnc
quintuplets have retained an attor
ney in an attempt to get parental
control of their five famous daugh
ters and to share in the fortune be
ing piled up for the babies.
This fortune in a few months
when the girls attain the age of one
year will amount to about $100,000
but none of the wealth will be given
them until they are 18 years old.
The money is being derived from
admission fees that are charged per
sons who enter the hospital at Cal
lander, Ontario province, to see the
infants. The hospital was especially
built for the quintuplets and con
tains no other inmates except the
children’s nurses and doctors.
» Five guardians were appointed by
the Canadian government to have
control of the children. One of these
guardians is Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe,
who attended the birth of the in
fants and who directs and super
vises their care.
Mrs. Olivia Dionne and her hus
band Elzira Dionne, parents of the
quintuplets, are now in the United
States making theatrical appearan
ces. The mother and father contend
they were compelled to sign away
their rights to the children by Can
adian government authorities on the
threat that otherwise relief funds
would be withheld from the Dionne
family, which at the time of the
birth of the five girls and for some
time afterwards was in straightened
circumstances.
The parents aver they were fore
ed to go on the stage to suppor'
their five older children. They alsc
charge they were treated brusquely
whn thy visited the hospital to sec
the quintuplets,
SOUTH BEND, Indiana — “We
have ten children,” Mrs. Dionne
said, “and we are not in favor o
having five of them millionaires
while their brothers and sisters are
brought up in comparative pover
ty.”
Mrs. Dionne and her husband are
in South Ber.d fill ng a stage engage
ment.
"While other people can get into
the hospital at any time, neverthe
less on one oecassion,’ Mrs. Dionne
related, “when I wanted the little
shirts the quintuplets had outgrown
one of the nurses ordered me out of
the hospital, threatening to strike
me with a flashlight."
Papa Dionne declared that the
five other children in the Dionne
family had seen their quintuplet
sisters only twice, each time behind
a glass case. He continued:
“I have had enough of being a
proxy papa to my daughters. Now
my wife and I are going to see1
about taking the government out of
our home life. We don't like the
way the government is splitting up ,
our family." j

In Washington they tell the story t
of a golfing clergyman who had
been badly beaten on the links by (
a parishioner 30 years his senior,
and had returned to the club house ,
rather disgruntled.
“Cheer up,” his opponent said, “re
member, you win at the finish. ,
You'll probably be burying me some ,
day.”
“Even then,” said the preacher,
“it will be your hole.”

His wife determined to cure him
