THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1928 PAGE THREE Young F armer Loses Arm Following an Accident t Record Entry Expec List; Splendid Midway Is Secured for Fair a One week from today Oshawa Fair will open its gates, for three glorious days which should exceed by a sup- erlative degree any which have been associated with Oshawa Fair in all the history of the South Ontario Agricultural Society. All that is re- quired to make the big event out- standingly successful is a small a- mount of consideration from the wea- ther man. Preparations are now nearly all complete, entries for the various exhibits are well up to the mark even at this early date, while the midway and special attractions exceed anything which has ever pre- viously been seen at Oshawa Fair. The Royal Canadian Shows which this year has been granted the tra- velling shows' concession, will form a nucleus this year about which an outstanding midway will be built. The Royal Canadian Shows itself em- braces and will bring to Oshawa, two Ferris wheels, a whip, a merry-go- round and a ten in one side show which should be the best that has been seen here in several year, The management of the Shows also pro- vides the free grand stand perform- ances and these also promise to ex- ceed both in number ad ably any- thing vet to be seen locally, + RE i with the Royal Cana- dian Shows to Oshawa will be ahout 30 out-of-town concessions to add to the color of the midway attractions. These concessions consist of both games and refreshment hooths. Other concessions to local individuals will swell the number and add variety to the midway attraction, . In all, it is expected this year that there will be over eighty concessions and perhaps one hundred on the midway during the two hig days of the fair. ------ TORONTO STOCKS (Supplied by Stobie, Forlong & «Co ") High Low 12,80 168 163% 162 HH pH 38% Stock Bell Tele, Braz.

During the whole month the officials placed 850 .ap- plicants in positions, an increase of 350 over those of the same month last year. In fact, the fig- ure is the largest for August ever reached. With the establishing of a record for last month, the number of placements for the year, to date, have reached 5,200, which number greatly exceeds that of any previ- ous year. The office this morning was ex- ceptionally busy, being the day af- ter a holiday, and a large number of placements weer made at an ear- ly hour. The demand for skilled laborers such as carpenters, paper- hangers, tool and die makers, bench hands and tool room grind- ers is still prevalent, and there are # number of positions vacant for men skilled in this line, There is also an urgent demand for unskilled labor, although the supply is nearly equal to the de- mand, and as a result things are kept rather on the move all the time, The women's department 1s keeping up to the general hureau in business activity. Since the peo- ple who have heen away are now returning home again, the demand for housekeepers and day workers in this department has increased, It is believed this condition will exist for a short period longer, The demand for unskilled farm hands has always heen a problem with the local Employment office, Oshawa is a centre which is purely manufacturing, and those who come here to get work or obtain positions requiring skill, do not generally look forward to going on farms, That is the main reason that farmers in this district find unusually dificult to obtain hands on short notice. "However," sald George Hamil- ton, superintendent. of the Em- ployment Bureau here, "conditions in this city as regards to employ- ment could not be better, and Osh- awa is certainly fortunate In hav- ing these conditions as they are at present LABOR DAY SPENT \ QUIETLY IN WHITBY Whitby, Sept. 4. ~-- Labor Day was spent quietly here with no special event to mark the occa- sion. The Canadian Natiopal Ex- hibition as usual attracted a large number of local people while oth- ers chose to rest at home or go motoring. Automobile traffic through the town on both the Kingston and Lindsay highways was quite heayy Saturday, Sunday and yesterday, but fortunately no bad accidents resulted within the municipal confines.

TORONTO PAPER' *CONNENT AS T0 BREWERY HERE Criticizes Attitude of Fed: |p eral Department Towards Granting License The following editorial comment in connection with the proposed brewery, for Oshawa appeared in this morning's issue of the Toronto Globe: "Break the Bureau Precedent" "The Oshawa Daily Times is wag- ing a sterling battle to prevent the locating in its home city of Budweiser Brewing Company's plant. It first quotes Sir Henry Drayton in support of its own position, and then cites Ottawa's apparent intention flagrantly to disregard the civil and Provincial authorities in this matter. As The Times puts it: "We are convinced that Sir Henry Drayton, Chairman of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, has the matter sized -up correctly. He not only says he has "given no approval whatever," but in a recent letter to the Oshawa Ministerial Association he said: "I am entirely of the view that it is unnecessary to have any more breweries in Ontario." "In making this brief but unequi- vocal statement the Chief Commis- sioner is entirely consistent with previous more extended statements. In an interview a short time ago the statement was authorized that the Board was of the opinion that the thirty-cight breweries now operating in the Province are more than suffi- cient to take care of present require- ments, In fact it was estimated that the gallonage capacity of Ontario breweries is between eight and nine times the demand through Liquor Control Board channels. "The attitude of the Department is set forth in the following telegram: Department of National Revenue, Ottawa, Aug. 29, 1928. The Oshawa Daily Times, Oshawa, Ont. : Your wire yesterday's date. Minis- ter absent, License not granted to Budweiser Brewing Company, Limit- ed,' Oshawa. Applicants * informed there is apparently no objection to issue license, provided all require- ments of law and regulations com- plied wtih, G. W, Taylor, Commissioner of Excise. "There was a time when the Fed- eral Government was at least cour- teous enough to consult with the Provincial Governments in the mat- ter of brewery and distillery licenses. One of the few "reforms" made by the former Minister, the Hon, Jac- ques Bureau, was to stop that whole- some practice , As he himself ex- plained to the press on Nov. 29, 1924: * 'Formerly, as a matter of cour- tesy, applications for licenses to op- erate breweries and distilleries were referred to the Attorney-General of Ontario, although the granting of them is entirely a matter for the Dominion authorities. That is all of now, My Department now deals with each case on its own respon- sibility, Formerly we did not grant the license without the concurrence of the Province, but that is not the case now. "It is more than unfortunate that, with regard to liquor administration, Mr. Euler should stick to the ways of Mr. Bureau. e has scrapped those ways in many other directions ~--with infinte public advantage and credit to himself, "No further brewery or distillery licenses should be granted in On- tario. The prohibitionists were al- ways opposed to them; Sir Henry Drayton now voices the opposition of the believers in the Government control system, The only people who want them are those who hope to profit, in one way or another, from them. If the Department grants fur- ther licenses it stamps itself as the tool of the liquor interests and the cynical betrayer of the wishes of the people of this Proyince." the | F Spirit of Friendship and - Goodwill Between Anglo Saxon Peoples Is Shown (Special to The Times) Naga Falls, Ont, Sept. 2 -- A Ng wncident showing the spiri of {friendship and oodwill iB between the Anglo Saxon peoples oc- curred Saturday when the young am- bassadors of the Empire party arriv- ed at Niagara Falls from Toronto and visited the United States for the first time' since their coast to coast trip under the auspices of the allied news- paper of #Great Britain, in co-opera- tion with the Canadian National ail- ways and the Cunard steamship lines. As the guests of the $hamber of Commerce the the City of Nia ara alls, N.Y, the party of fifty boys and girls of the United Kingdom and Irelan , who were the successful competitors out of more than 250,000 entrants for the travel scholarship of- fered by the Allied Newspapers in written and oral examinations on the subject of Canada, made a trip over the Great Gorge route and visited the Federal Reserve Park, including Goat Island. Upon arrival at the park the party were met by RD. House, sec- retary of the Chamber of Commerce; Edward Towlinson, secretary of the Y.M.CA, and Mrs. Mortimer i £ Brown, secretary of Y.W.C.A. and officially welcomed to the United Sta- tes. In brief addresses all stressed the anniity existing between the two nations and the close ties brought about by friendship and blood. Frank Lascot, director of the Empire Travel and Scholarship scheme, in reply spoke of the sympathetic relations between the great American republic and the British Empire and thanked the Chamber of Commerce and the city for extending their hospitality to the party, On the trip to Niagara Falls, the party was the guests of the Ontario Government and the journey was made by motor buses through the fruit belt of the Pro- vince. At St, Catharines, the young ambassadors were met by Major Hugh Bell, manager of the Chamber of Commerce and escorted to Ridley College, where an official welcome was extended to them by mayor Wright. Subsequently the memorial chapel of the College was viewed and cach member of the party presented by the city with a basket of choice fruit, The visit to St. Catharines concluded by hoy members represent- ing the United Kingdom and Ireland, placing a wreath upon the city war memorial. From St, Catharines the party motored to Queenston, where they were escorted by Major J, R. Bond, superintending engineer of the Niagara Park Commission, to the re- frectory for luncheon as the com- mission's guests, Dr. H. Y, Grant, chairman of the entertainment com- mittee, presided and in a few words welcomed the young ambassadors to Niagara Falls and outlined the vari- ous development which has taken place to make the Falls, with its ex- cellent series of parks and boulevards, one of the beauty spots of the Do- minion. Mayor H, P. Stephens re- presented the city council, Sunday was spent largely in sight seeing, with a trip of inspection through the hydro electric power plant at Queenston, where the young ambassadors were astounded at the magnitude of the world's largest hy- dro electric development, and showed their keen interest by asking numer- ous questions of their guides. In the evening, the party left for Hamilton, where today they will be the guests of the municipality for a trip about the city and luncheon. In the after- noon they will leave for Guelph by motor to the Ontario Agricultural College for dinner as the guests of the Provincial Department of Agri- culture. Following their Guelph visit the party will leave for Kingston, where they will take a Canada Steamship lake liner for a trip through the Thousand Islands to Montreal. After a stay of two days in the city of Montreal, they will em- bark for England. Invite Tenders For Repain West Pier (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Sept. 4.--The Dominion Government has called for ten- ders for repairs to the west pler at the local harbor. The harbor light is located on this section a several months ago the tow council notified the department o public works that the life of t pier was being threatened uples® improvements were made. The of Whitby Harbor government has been prompt in taking action and there is now no danger that the harbor will go tne way of the Port Hope harbor. Al- though there is not much ship- ping as compared with a genera- tion or more ago the port is often welcome shelter for vessels and one may never know when the lake carrying trade might again take impetus. . . DOG TRYING TO GIVE ALARM OF FIRE IS PUT OUT OF CHURCH Winchester, Ky., Sept. 3.--A small dog tried in yain yesterday to save his master's four children from death in their burning home in the Jackson County Mountains. His efforts to attract aid were met only with cjec- tion from the church which he was disturbing with his barks. Repeatedly the dog dashed into the church barking and tugging at his master's coat but each time he was thrown out. At last members of the the congregation saw the flames, but by that time it was too late. Norman Dean and his wife had gone to the church, leaving the dog with their children, Esther, Mina, Rosa Lee and Tolbert, the oldest eight and the youngest three. They left a coal oil lamp burning on the table so the children would not be- come frightened in the dark. During the services the dog kept running into the church yapping frantically, but for a long tite he was looked upon as a nuisance. When the fire was seen, the whole congre- gation rau to the Dean Lome but the roof had already fallen in and there was no sign of the children. When the embers cooled sufiicient- ly to permit a search, it was found that the three older children had ap- parently been trapped while trying to carry their little brother out. [It is believed the lamp exploded and caus- ed the fire. WHITBY PERSONALS Mr. Ed. Wilson, of Woodstock, recently remewed acquaintances fin town. Mrs. A. W.

This morning, when he appeared before Magistrate Floyd in police court here, he was remanded for one week pending further investigation of the affair by Provincial police. When interviewed last evening, Provincial Constable H, Storey stated that Collett was shot in the arm by a shotgun that, it is alleg- ed, was discharged b%¥ Lambert. The arm -wasa mputated Saturday in Port Perry hospital. A warrant was issued for Lambert's arrest in Port Perry Saturday, and he was picked up in Toronto Sunday by officers of the detective depart- ment, Provincial Congtable 7. Mitchell, Oshawa, brought him to Bowmanville, from where he was transferred here by Constable Stor- ey © yesterday! Considerable in- vestigation into the affair will be made this week, said Constable Storey, and in the meantime Lam- bert will remain in custody on the |charge of wounding. This is the second serious wounding case in Cartwright town- ship that has been investigated by local police within a period of three weeks. The first case involved two young men of about 20, one of whom, Edward White, has been committed for trial on a charge of wounding the second man, Mr. Haslep. According to the evidence in the preliminary hearing of the case, White was practising target shooting along the roadside and Haslep was shot in the back while riding a bicyele on the road, just after he passed White, Charles Collett is a8 son of Charles Collett who owns a farm in Cartwright township, five miles south-east of Port Perry, and in Durham county, just over the boundary separating it from the county of Ontario. He has been operating the farm, residing there with his mother and family, while his father was employed in Tor- onto by a lithographing firm. According to Provincial Consta- ble Mitchell, of this city, who or- iginall yinvestigated the shooting, Collett, together with Lambert and George Wright, who were employ- ed on the farm, was sitting in the kitchen of the farmhouse while Lambert was examining the shoi- gun. It discharged, the shot en- tering Collett's arm. Lambert told the police that he did not. know the gun was load- ed, hut Collett, in a statement made tot he police in Port Perry hospital, declared that he had warned Lambert that the gun was loaded. Lambert had been employed on the Collett farm for about two weeks, coming to Port Perry from Toronto. After the shooting he ap- parently became frightened and returned to his Toronto home. A warrant was issued in Port Perry and Torompto police were motified, arresting the youth on Sunday. He was brought to Oshawa _by Consta- ble Mitchell, who upon discovering that the shooting occurred just ov- er the border in Durham county, and not in Ontario county, turned the case over to Constable Storey in Cobourg, who removed the lad to Cobourg jail. Officials at the Port Perry hospl- tal informed The Times this morn- ing that Collett's condition js "'sat- isfateory for the present',' and that he was feeling somewhat better { Huron St. Phone 711M. this morning. The arm was ampus tated just above the elbow on Sate urday, Doctors A. E. Stewart and G. S. Jeffrey of Port Perry peb« forming the operation. Collet will probably be confined to the hospital for a period of about twa weeks, they state, If this is the case, Lamberts trial on the wounds in gcharge may be postponed unti Collett is able to attend the hea ing.
