Quintuplets Are
Made Own Royal
ProvincialFamily
Government Measure Tc
Be Forced Through
for Protection

TORONTO, Ont. March 12.-
(UP).-The Hon. David Croll,
welfare commissioner, seeking to
protect the Dionne quintuplets
from exploiters, today castigated
the "quick talking chiselers and
impresarios" who are attempting
to "ballyhoo Ontario's royal fam
lily"
Croll spoke in the Ontario legis-
lature on a bill which would make
the department of welfare guar
dams of the five babies until they
reach IS.
The bill was made necessary, he
said. to protect the interests of
the entire family. 1t is now on
second reading.
Croll replied to criticism today
by Mr.. and Mrs. Olivia Dionne,
who were reported to have asked
"what have we ever done to have
our children taken away from
us?"
Croll intimated that the Dionnes
had spoken at the behest of others
who were trying to cash in on the
Dionne publicity.
Zone who cloaks himself behind
the parents in order to get some
thing for himself is responsible"
he said, 'for the expressions Of
from the parents
of these babies. | know these ir-
rational outbursts do not come
from the parents themselves. and
it is the purpose of this bill to
stop the quick talking chiselerS
from interfering with these chill
dren. We must regard them as
Ontario's own royal family, and
we are not going to allow them TO
be ballyhooed under any tent. We
must recognize them as problem
children"
Croll said he believed the bill
would 60 through despite the OBJ
lection of the Dionnes. A trust
fund provided for the children
would be administered under his
departments eye.
This BILL" said Premier Micha-
ell F. Hepburn, sis going through
regardless"
