Tresidder, representative, "TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1927 NEW GENERAL MANAGER "The Oshawa Daily Times joins most heart- "ily in the general congratulations that attend the appointment of Mr, H. A, Brown to the very responsible position of Vice-President and General Manager of General Motors of Canada, Limited, As Comptroller of the company for the past three years, Mr, Brown has displayed execu- % tive sgenius and sane business judgment to a tlegree that amply justifies the splendid promo- ticn that has eome to him, ii If one were to seek a reason for Mr, Brown's yapid promotion in the General Motors organi- sation it can be given by quoting the ancient irinity of achievement: native ability; self- aiscipline; hard work, His success should be and doubtless will be an inspiration to many other men who have their feet on the lower rungs and are determined to scale the ladder of success, Mr, Lefebvre who leaves the Canadian or- gonization after a very busy yeap to take charge of production at the Oakland division at, Pontiac, Michigan, is followed by the good "wishes of many friends in Oshawa, both with- in 'and without the General Motors organiza- tion, THE CHICAGO THAT WAS The Chicago that was has spoken tor the Chicago of today which, lead by that night- mare of a human mind which is housed in the cranium of Mayor "Big Bill" Thompson, has declared war on all things British, In investi- gating the archives of the Chicago Public Library, a committee of demagoguery dis- covered that that institution had been founded following the Chicago fire by a gift of 7,000 volumes from Queen Victoria and many of her distinguished subjects, Chicago was once a city that loomed large on the horizons of public imagination, Its recovery from an historic conflagration was an inspiration, The world's Columbian Exposi- tion there gave this whole continent an ideal of civic beauty that lives today in thousands of public buildings and in the science of town planning, which owes its birth to that as- semblage of exhibition palaces which declared, again, that the useful need not be hideous, The older Chicago was an adventurer. For a time its skyscrappers were the tallest in the world, It dedicated a park to Abraham Lin- coin and then hallowed it with a statue of the Emancipator which is one of time's great sculptural treasures, It grew, it founded a university, built and furnished a great art gallery, enriched letters, fostered invention, and dreamed of greater things. Many of those things are still in Chicago but its glory is departed. When people think of the city théy instinctively think of lawless vanditry, So far as public respect is con- cerned, its name might be Babylon--or Sodom. MOTHER LOVE Once more the reviving menace of the drunkard put motherhood to the test. On Sunday evening, near the North Oshawa branch of the C.N.R. an automobile was forced into the ditch by a party of drivers, be- lieved to have been drunk. That little car con- tained a man, his little son, and his wife who clasped a sleeping baby in her arms, The accident happened in 2 moment, but that instant was long enough for motherhood to rise in its ancient sublimity of sacrifice. This mother, menaced with death, bowed her head above the infant hugged frantically to hér breast. Her face was cut almost to rib- bons by flying glass, but the child escaped with only a slight injury. . These drunkards of the highway sped on. They didn't care. What answered for a con- science in their beastial souls was too obscured by the fumes of alcohol to make them stop and render what aid they could. Memory itself was dead within them or they would have turned back to kneel for forgive- ness before the glory of motherhood in its supreme moment. Too drunk to care for others, they were not too intoxicated to care for their own shameful skins. The bravos that a moment before could burl a peacclud family off the highway into the ai oe oa La | peril of death were too yellow to leave their | rear lights burning. These, bystanders relate, flashed out as if by a signal, and they went their way known only to the 'sleepless, ever vigilant eye of God. WHEN IN DOUBT The more or less news of certain Oshawa citizens dropping $50,000 lately in some scheme "or other is one of the ever-blooming tragi- comedies of modern life. The humor of it is elemental, for it shows that even the wisest and most successful of men are not infallible, Safety deposit hoxes of the very wealthy often reveal on their death carefully treasured bundles of worthless stock. The regrettable feature is that while the fake promoter, like the originators of new religions, can always get a favorable reception somewhere, many If only the glib-tongued artists could be con- verted to honest ways and sent forth to pro- mote the things which need promotion, However, there is a half-way house between the fake and the gilt-edged, And for those in a condition of honest doubt but with enoygh surplus money to take a chance, the wise thing to do is to see a bank manager, Oshawa has six such officials, and one of the ways they earn their salaries is in giving advice to investors, They naturally want ac- counts, But no one need ever go into a bank fearing "high pressure salesmanship." --. Bank managors have been known to be over cautious, but no cne has ever landed in a poor house by following their suggestions, As for those who haven't money to risk in some investment adventure there is but one form cf advice and that is "Don't!" All that glitters isn't gold, but every poverty stricken but once comfortably settled widow knows that nothing in the world glitters with such re- merseless splendor as the gold she once had but lost. DRUNKEN DRIVERS AND HARD TIMES In the elder days of the fight against intem- perance, the drunkard's victims were chiefly of his own household, . Today, as illustrated with striking force in Oshawa and vicinity over the week-end, the reviving menace of the drunken driver strikes not only at the innocent but at the unsuspect- ing, : Pity brought about the revolution against the liquor traffic, Part of it may have been maudlin pity, but even that part had justifica- tion, For there were crippled children maimed by the maniac hand of a father unworthy of the name. There were wives who were beaten into insensibility, murdered even, There were wrecked lives, defamed virtue, infinite misery. Today, and only the blind will refuse to see it, the drunkard is back again, and this time hc-comes armed with death that can come up- on its unthinking victims at sixty or more mile® an hour. The drunken driver is here, but he will not stay. Pity alone will not be asked to fight against this revived and intensified menace, for the drunken driver means hard times, Let highway deaths be multiplied by five times and every branch of industry in this Dominion will feel the shock of a strike against the motor car. Commerce has reason to remember the buyers' strike which following the war brought business down in a crash as absolute as the temple which Samson destroyed. Oshawa citizens are confronted with a men- ace that is only intensified by reports that the Attorney-General's department is preparing to leave the prosecution of liquor control act violations largely to the province's local police. While admitting the bare possibility of a wrong inference, such a move looks like a de- liberate weakening of Ontario's enforcement effort. Such slackening might bring in a few more tourists, particularly of a type that can benefit only a few and might do incalculable damage, but it tends to only one thing and that is hard times. a A people's well-being is not to be measured by the guest registers in its hotels. Prosperous bell boys can't make up for skilled mechanics out of work. Steaming kitchens for the visit- ing rich can't compensate for the thin acridity of the Salvation Army soup kettle. Bit of Verse ORGAN AND QUIRE But let my due feet never fail To walk the studious Cloysters pale And love the high embowed Roof, With antick Pillars massy proof, And storied Windows richly dight, Casting a dim religious light.
