H. D, Tresidder, representative, REPRESENTATIVES IN US, Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1928 LET'S GET TOGETHER Hope for an early settlement of the un- fortunate dispute that has arisen between General Motors of Canada, Limited, and its employees was increased today with the arrival in the city of a representative of the Department of Labour of the Dominion Gov- ernment. Intervention from someone out- side of Oshawa who has in no way been a party to the dispute should prove useful at this time, If both sides show a willingness to discuss the questions at issue on their merits and avoid saying hard things about each other, the dispute should not long re- main unsettled, At least it is to be hoped that some honorable solution may be found whereby the men may return to work pend- ing a final adjustment of their gievances, That grievances exist must be fairly re- cognized, No doubt some men are on strike because they love a fight, some have private grudges which they hope to work off and still others hope to gain selfish ends of one kind or another, But it is only fair to be- lieve that the great majority of men on strike are fully convinced that they have just complaints which demand reasonable consideration, The company, on the other hand, has a mass of facts and figures to support the position it has taken, It also feels that the men adopted the wrong method by which to bring their complaints to the attention of the management. It is always so much more difficult to find a solution for differences when both sides have, so to speak, taken up arms, There is no doubt mistakes have been made on both sides but those mistakes are not the issue now. Upwards of two thous- and men are out of work--some on strike, the others directly affected by it; production has been seriously curtailed; people with in- i vestments here are disturbed; merchants 3 : and business people are affected; families are worried. Indeed it is safe to say that no element in Oshawa can possibly remain un- affected if the strike continues. Because of this, we believe it is the duty of the parties directly concerned to meet any proposals that are made in a spirit of reasonableness and conciliation, Let's Get Together, THE GOOD IN BIG CITIES We read so much and so often of the sin, vice and crime in big cities, especially in the U.S.A, that it is a relief and refreshment of spirit to read in the New York Times, un- doubtedly the most reliable of all the mam- moth dailies in the U.S.A., of the "welfare work in New York," Even to those who thought they knew something of it, the ac- count will be somewhat of a surprise, There was published last week a directory of the agencies of the city for "alleviating distress and promoting health, happiness and self-dependence." The idea of the book * is to give information to those who may be urgently in need of relief and to those who may wish to contribute or help in such relief work. To the credit of the city it is said to be as large as The Social Register, and it contains a description of each organization, its loca- tion and telephone number. The New York Times adds, proudly, that "the city has un- doubtedly the largest and most efficient _ charitable machinery in the world." There are 439 organizations that have to do with family welfare work, 380 with child welfare; 1,141, including the churches, with recreation, education and neighborhood act- ivities, and 426, in addition to 1,161 clinics, with the safesguarding of health--the lat- . ter diversified from anti-rabic clinic to a "Home for Old French ladies". This is surely a remarkable development - and organization of the "good Samaritan" . Spirit, which is the distinctive spirit of Christianity, in relation to human need, even of strangers. It is on this basis that the {HE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1928 great dividd is'te be wade In the end. "Twas hungry and ye fed me, thirsty and ye gave me drink, sick and in prison and ye came unto me" is what those on the right hand will hear at that great day. PRACTICAL HEROISM Though the airplane is no longer regarded with the deep and thorough distrust com- mon about 1910, flying still requires cours age of some sort. No one yet has arisen to argue that even the best of conditions, with the best of pilots and for the shortest of trips flying is the safest mode of travel and sport, The element of risk is being greatly re- duced by improvements in construction and a wider use of flying craft, but it has been somewhat increased by man's desire to make planes to do more than they ever did before --cross, oceans, stay aloft for days, turn thousands of loops, and so on. This is an eager age, a brave one, and one hot for quick and unmistakable advances, So courage is still in demand in aviation, However, there are different kinds of courage, and some kinds are respected more than others, That recently demonstrated by Geoffrey De Haviland is of the highest and most useful type, The bravery of this British designer and pilot is as scientific as it is instinctive, To test a device designed to make flying fool proof he stalled the motor of his plane at a height of 200 feet an awaited results, The moth plane dropped like a stone for some distance and then the new device got in its work and checked the craft's precipi- tate fall, De Haviland, unhurt, stepped smilingly out of his plane, to the relief of hardened pilots who had shuddered as spec- tators. Here was an example of wise courage that is no less courage for being wise. Nor was the "drop" less thrilling for its having had a useful purpose; nor the display of bravery less personal for having had an impersonal end, It was not merely a rash stunt which takes away the breath as much by its fool- ish uselessness as hy its appeal to sensa- tions, but a reasonable experiment both haz- ardous and necessary. Men like De Haviland are using their courage to make courage neither an essential nor an obstruction to safe flying. EDITORIAL NOTES The big difficulty in compiling a history is trying to decide whose prejudices to accept. Who remembers when lobbyists for some interest or other didn't incorporate and call themselves an association or institute, Bit of Verse THE PRESS The Soldier may forget his Sword, The Sailorman the Sea, The Mason may forget the Word And Priest his Litany; The Maid may forget both jewel and jem, And the Bride her wedding-dress-- But the Jew shall forget Jerusalem Ere we forget the Press. Who once hath stood through the loaded hour, Ere, roaring like a gale. The Hayrild and the Goss devour Their league long paper-bale, And has lit his pipe in the morning calm That follows the midnight stress-- He hath sold his heart to the old Black Arm, We call the Daily Press. ' Who once hath dealt in the widest games That all of a man can play, No later love, no larger fame Will lure him long away. As the war-horse smelleth the battle afar, The entered Soul, no less, He saith: "Hal! Ha!" where the truumpets are, And the thunders of the Press! Canst thou number the days that we fulfill, Or the Times that we bring forth? Canst Thou send the lightnings to do Thy will, And cause them to reign on earth? Hast thou given a peacock goodly wing To please his foolishness? Sit down at the heart of men and things, Companion of the Press! The Pope may launch his Interdict The Union jts decree, But the bubble is blown and the bubble is pricked By Us and such as We. Remember the battle and stand aside While Thrones. and Powers confess That King over all the children of pride, Is the Press--the Press--the Press! ~--Rudyard Kipling.

VALUE OF SEEING MENTAL AILMENTS EARLY Registered in accordauce with the Copyright Acs We are told that 42 per cent of all hospital beds in America are occupied by patients with narvous ailments. These figures, of course, include patients in mental hospi- us.' tala, Now, when we remember that more of these nervous ailments are being cured than at any previous time, it certainly proves that the actual number of nervous cases is increasing. In former times it was the cus- tom to speak of these nervous cases as being insane or crazy, and the hospital was called an asylum. You can readily understand, then, why a patient and his family disliked the idea of consulting a nerve specialist, and the thought of go- ing to the asylum was embarrass- ing and humiliating. However, it has been pointed out very often the past few years, that a patient with any nervous or men- tal ailment 'has the same right to considerative treatment and . carve, as one with a heart or lung ail- ment. Accordingly, these imstitu- tions are mow called hospitals for mental ailments, and a great many patients enter them for treatment of their own accord. Dr. Wm. House of Portland makes the significant statement that patients should be educated to the point where they will go to the doctor to get treatment for a men- tal ail em o,tettnjsahsy efishow tal ailment, just eas they go for treatment of heart, lungs, kidneys, and so forth, As it is now, the majority will wait until the mental condition be- comes so serious that they have to be committed to these institutions, And you can readily see that it is going to be harder to effect a cure in an individual committed to the institution on - the advice of two doctors, than in one who goes in of his own accord, because he feels that he needs to go. The idea is that a great number of patients would never actually need to go to these institutions, if at the first sign of any nervous or mental disturbance they consulted their doctor, or the nerve specials ist recommended by their doctor, If it so happened that some in- fection such as teeth or tonsils was the cause of the trouble, the re- moval of this would ensure mental health again, Late "Oh Yes, my Watch Stopped" Why don't you bring it to us. We can repair it properly and stop that "late" excuse. D. J.

But that, as the Bishop of Southwark pointed out, is small comfort in view of the fact that the grand total of scci- dents was in 1926 pearly 10,000 as compared with about 5,500 in 1920, Though the actual percent- age was smaller the total number of casualties to children was great- er than ever before, and the risk which they run in the streets of London is estimated to be three times as great as in other parts of the country.
