Ep THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1931 ci REE PAGE THREE J Bowmanville Daily Times Representatives Phone No. 53 THANKS FOR AID ~~ INRELIEF WORK Chairman of Committee Ap- preciates Help of Citizens Since the organization of the new relief 'methods in Bowmanville many have remarked very favor- ably on the methods adopted by the special committee appointed by council to deal with the mat- ter and Councillor Lockhart, chair- man of the committee has issued the following letter in apprecia- tion: "The Relief Committee wishes to acknowledge, with thanks, the many kindly expressions of ap- preciation the good people of Bow- manville are making concerning the manner the Executive Council is handling the Unemployment Re- lief. We are pleased that some of our men are finding re-engage- ment jobs at our local plants and other places. The cloud of depres- sion that has darkened the hearts and homes of so many for long enough, is beginning to lift and 'brighter days are in the offing. Let ug all keep smiling, However, we cannot but say there is right now, some real need in our midst, and any contribution you may feel to make towards re- lieving this need such as a spare dollar, any old clothing (not too badly worn) or food stuffs of any - kind, will be very thankfully re- ceived as places ' can be found where tliese expressions of your kindly co-operation may be placed. and you will receive a "God Dless You" for your liberality. -MLet me also thank the anony- mous donors who, through the mail and other ways, are making their splendid contribution towards our rellef work. A record is kept of all such gifts and a report will be given through the pross in the near future. "By phoning 516 you may be supplied with a handy man to take care of any odd job you may find about your house or store or farm Painfnl Piles Go Quick--No Cutting--No Salves It takes only one bottle of Dr. J. S. Leonhardt's prescription--HEM- ROID--to end itching, bleeding, pro- truding' piles. This internal remedy acts quickly even in old, stubborn cases. HEM-ROID suceeds because it heals and restores the affected arts and removes blood congestion in the lower bowel -- the cause of piles. Only an internal medicine can do this, that's why salves and cutting fail. Jury & Lovell says HEM-ROID Tablets must end your Pile misery or money back. Your heartiest sympathy and co- operation with the Relief Commit. tee is earnestly solicited until the better day dawns and the clouds have passed away. Yours sincerely, T. H. Lockhart, Chairman of Relief Committee". STUDENTS WILL PRESENT PLAY Production in High School Auditorium Tonight Will Be Popular "The Rivals" is the title of a play which will be' produced .to- night in the High School auditor- fum by the students and which is eagerly awaited by the public. When the reserved seat sale open- ed this week there was one of the biggest rushes 'for seats for any production in some years, The reason for this is not known un- less it is that the students have been practicing this for weeks and probably some who have seen a little of the play in rehearsal are spreading the good news, The play is to be produced on both Thurs- day and Friday night and all things point to the full house each evening. The play Is in five acts with 13 scenes and is said to be easily the best produced under the B.H:S. Literary Society. . : The cast for the play will be: Sir Anthony Absolute, Gordon Adams; Captain Absolute, John Jury; Faulkland, Bill Ingram; Acres, Newt Hackney; Sir Lucious O'Trigger, Bob Corbett; Iag, Chester Jury; Thomas, Aleck Birks; David, Charlie Cawker; Mrs. Malaprop, Winnie Rickard; Lydia Languish, Elsie Carruthers; Julia, Helen Argue; Lucy, Winnie Lancaster. The curtain rises at 8 o'clock sharp and Principal L. W. Dippell requests that everyone be in their seats at that time so that there will be no interruptions.

WLAUGHLIN DENIES THOUSANDS WILL LOSE JOBS (Continued from page 1) manufacturers and increased pro- duction in the present Canadian factories. As proof, he cited evidence giv- en before the Tariff. Advisory Board last year, which indicated that on an average the disburse- ment for labor for each car trans- ferred from foreign to Canadian manufacture, would support one family for from three to four months, "On an average, every person buying an imported car has been depriving some Canadian workman of $456 in labor," he pointed out, 'so if the present tar- iff change succeeds in diverting the bulk of this business from Am- erican to Canadian manufacturers, it is obviously going to bemnefly Can- adian employment, "All that the Canadian manu- facturers want," sald Mr. Mec- Laughlin, "is competition on a fair basis. We would welcome addi- tional industries to this country. Every assistance would be given them to facilitate their establish- ment in the Dominion on a sound working basis. Our association has agreed to put any new concern in touch with the proper sources of supply. The reason that General Motors and other firms huild cars in Canada is that we believe in disbursing our expenditures/iu the territory where people are suppor- ing us by buying cars. The Ameri- can makers who sell cars In Can- ada should be willing to do the same thing instead of merely dumping their excess production in this country to the benefit of work- ors in the United States factories." Might Have Been Driven Out Mr. McLaughlin stated frankly that without the tariff change which has just been made it woula not have been possible to continue building cars .in Canada. Durinz recent years it had been uneco- nomical to do.so, as was pointed out before the Tariff Advisory Board Ly the representatives of a large United States firm exporting cars to Canada, "The American makers were taking advantage of the tarilf practically to dump cars into this country in such a way that: we were unable to face thelr competi- tion on a price basis," Mr, Me- Laughlin sald. "It is the, practice in the United States, followed also by firms export- ing to Canada, that with distributors, dealers, ctc., the discounts vary from 17% to 40 per cent. The new tariff change equalizes the competition, be- cause it cqualizes the oars to dealers. . "The question before the Govern- ment was not whether a new indus- try should be established. That ques- tion was settled years ago by the first Canadian automobile tariff," he said "In the years since that first tariff was put on, a few companies have built up an autemohile industry in this - country which involves almost $100,000,000 ot capital, directly em- ploying in an average year as amny as 16,000 workers, exclusive of dealers and their staffs, The value of the production. of these companies has amounted to more than $160,000,000 annually. The Canadian labor paid for in the manufacture of Canadian cars in 1928 was $74,394825. The question before the Government was whether or mot this industry should survive.
